Alexei Barnes Alderp

Alexei Barnes Alderp (アレクセイ・バーネス・アルダープ, Arekusei Bānesu Arudāpu) is a former noble and governor of Axel. He is maligned by Axel's citizens for being greedy, selfish, and utterly corrupt.

Appearance
Alderp is a middle-aged, tall and obese man. He wears white gloves and red and blue clothes with golden stripes. He has long blonde hair and a blonde mustache.

Personality
Alderp's luck, perverseness, and cunning are equal to or possibly greater than Kazuma's own. In many ways, he is like the evil version of Kazuma, that does not care about his comrades or friends. He is seen as very corrupt and will use foul-play to get what he wants. This is seen in Kazuma's trial where he uses his position to have the judge call out Kazuma as guilty. When Kazuma calls out foul-play, Alderp simply states that Kazuma is just a worthless adventurer.

Alderp is also known to marry any woman he likes through force, then divorcing them when he is no longer pleased by them and, due to his deal with the devil Maxwell, none of the women he previously married press any charges against him.

Abilities
Magic: In the Light novel, he appears to be able to manipulate others using some sort of dark power. This is revealed to be due to the devil he summoned, Maxwell, who manipulated events to work in Aldep's favor.

Trivia

 * Asleep Manga.pngp is described both in the novel and the manga as a bald man full of body hair.
