Elias Brandt Dale Raeven

Among the six great nobles, he boasts the largest influence. With his blond hair slicked back and a tall, slender frame, he is in his late 30s. His sharp blue eyes and unhealthy skin tone, which never sees the sun, give him a snake-like impression to those around him.

He is adept at maneuvering between the royal faction and the great noble faction, earning him the nickname "bat," and is despised by Gazef like a venomous snake. In reality, he is the shadow leader of the royal faction, a loyalist who has worked tirelessly to maintain the delicate balance within the country. Originally an ambitious traitor with dreams of usurping the throne, he now genuinely worries about the kingdom's future and has built an information network that transcends factional boundaries for the king's sake. However, his own exceptional abilities and the fact that talented individuals flock to him have caused headaches, as other factions are left with only incompetent nobles who run amok. He has seen glimpses of Renner's true nature since she was young and, before the demon incident, questioned her, becoming almost ecstatic upon witnessing her true self.

He dotes on his approximately five-year-old son, whom he calls "Lee-tan," and abandoned his former ambitions after his wife gave birth, leading to a very harmonious marriage. Later, under the princess's supervision, he had the opportunity to understand Gazef's true intentions, and they shared the same goal of assisting the king. His current purpose in life is to ensure that his children can manage their territory in a peaceful era, and he hopes to have a second child soon.

He was one of the few survivors of the great massacre. Afterward, he returned to his domain, seemingly broken in spirit, and Zanac believes he will never come to the capital again. Ainz holds his abilities and character in high regard and, given his close relationship with Gazef, deemed him too valuable to kill. During the war with the Sorcerer Kingdom, he was forced to betray the kingdom under the threat of his child being taken hostage by the invading Sorcerer Kingdom.
