About this title

Synopsis

A sorcerer who once been the top student of the famous Tower of Fang, now spends his time chasing around his hopeless clients as a moneylender; at least until his client comes up with a plan to make money: marriage fraud. Unwillingly being dragged in to the plan, Orphen encounters a monster who has long been his goal since the day he left the Tower of Fang. Between those who seek to kill the monster and Orphen, giving everything to protect the monster, his lousy but peaceful days end. Trying to turn back his sister, Azalie back to her true form leads to many more mysteries and the key to the secret to the world.

Main characters

Age: 20 Hair: Brown Eyes: Brown Height: 171 cm Weight: 61 kg Blood type: O Orphen is the main male lead. Fans claim "he comes off as a 'badass' kind of guy," because of his apparent lack of emotions, dedication to finish what he is working on as soon as possible (his eagerness to stop helping people he feels he does not have to help), and his "coldness" toward people he does not know. He is partly an anti-hero throughout the entire series. The only time his attitude changes is when the subject of Azalie is brought up. He will do anything for Azalie, as when they were younger, she had tutored him and gave him the confidence to get as far as he did in the Tower of Fangs. He and Azalie were brought to the school because it was believed that they possessed a strong amount of magical power within them. This proved correct; Orphen was a magic-prodigy. Orphen eventually becomes the greatest sorcerer in the world. Orphen keeps his feelings and the story about Azalie to himself at first but opens up later in the series. His true name is Krylancelo Finrandi, and the people from the Tower of Fangs (Hartia, Azalie, Childman, Flameheart) still refer to him like that. (Source: Wikipedia)
Cleao Everlasting18 fan favorites

Cleao Everlasting is the tomboyish, feisty main female lead. Her father had inherited the Sword of Balthanders, and Orphen needed the sword. She accompanies him on his journey, allowing him to take the sword (as it was just an ornament to her, knowing nothing of its power), claiming that she is only coming to "make sure he doesn't harm her investment."

Majic Lin8 fan favorites
External profile
Majic is Orphen's apprentice and the second-male lead. He is a friend of Cleao's but not a close one since she's three years older than him and she also spent a long time at boarding school. He deals with torment from both Cleao and Orphen on their journey together to save Azalie. His father is paying Orphen to teach him, which, at first, seems to be a waste of money. When Orphen repairs a glass that fell with his magic, before the father's eyes, the father's opinion about his money being thrown out the window disappears. Majic is a good student, and Orphen seems to have a lot of faith in him. This gives him courage, which makes his power stronger. Majic looks up to Orphen and refers to him as "master" upon Orphen's request. (Source: Wikipedia, edited)
Volkan Folcano5 fan favorites
External profile
Dortin and Volkan are often viewed as comic relief throughout the series. Volkan is the one with the plans—the very bad plans, that is. He hates Orphen (whom he refers to as "the black wizard") and his companions and always finds a way to ruin whatever they had in mind. He is also very annoying to Orphen. It is his fault that Orphen often must use his magic on them to make them go away—them, being him and Dortin. Volkan wants power and money. Any scheme he has in mind has the end result being one of the two. None of his schemes ever work, however. He bosses Dortin around a lot but in a very comical way. Alternate Spelling: Volcan (Source: Wikipedia, edited)
Dortin Folcano1 fan favorites
External profile
Dortin is the voice of reason (that is never paid any attention to) on his and Volkan's quests. He is kind and knowledgable, though something of a nerd. When Volkan messes up, Dortin always tries to tell Orphen he had no part in Volkan's schemes, but they both wind up being victim's of Orphen's magical blasts anyway. (Source: Wikipedia)
