Valde

Valde appears in both the original light novel and the anime adaptation.

She is a slender, tall woman with dark blue hair, and in the anime she has blue eyes.

She is pure-hearted, quiet, reserved, and somewhat lacking in forcefulness.

Among the Imperial Guard, she is often seen acting together with Ragrus.

Although assigned as a monitor under orders from Zelshione, Valde’s natural personality led her to admire Nayuta Hida almost like a parent.

Instead of merely guarding Nayuta, she came to follow her like a loyal attendant.

Valde never truly understood Nayuta’s real objective.

Even so, she neither grew suspicious enough to report her nor informed Zelshione of anything unusual.

As a result, she ended up actively assisting Nayuta’s secret schemes.

Her loyalty made her one of Nayuta’s most dependable subordinates.

She is also described as an excellent assassin and a master of stealth operations.

That combination of meek personality and deadly skill gives her a striking presence.

Service Under Nayuta Hida

Valde was ordered by Zelshione to act as Nayuta Hida’s bodyguard in another world.

From there, her role gradually shifted from supervision to personal devotion.

She trusted Nayuta absolutely and regarded her with deep affection.

This trust would eventually become the source of her downfall.

Actions in Major Events

During the Battle for Okinawa, Valde followed Nayuta’s order and drew out the core to kill Bridget.

In the anime version, she does not kill Bridget.

During the construction of the magical power plant in Tokyo, she served as Nayuta’s assistant.

She also worked diligently in other operations, including stealing part of the Genesis Pillar that had been kept by Baldeen.

Valde carried out these tasks earnestly and without hesitation.

Her efforts showed just how completely she had devoted herself to Nayuta’s cause.

Final Fate

At the end, Valde witnessed Nayuta becoming a god through the power of the Genesis Pillar.

In that moment, she realized she had been betrayed.

The shock shattered her mind.

She was left in a state of mental collapse.

Valde first appears in volume 3 of the original light novel.

In the early part of the story, she often acts alongside Ragrus.

Partway through, Zelshione, the commander of the Imperial Guard, orders her to protect Nayuta Hida.

From then on, she spends most of her time with Nayuta.

In the novels, Valde adores Nayuta like a mother and places absolute trust in her.

That emotional dependence becomes one of the key traits defining her role.

Valde makes her first anime appearance in episode 7.

As in the original story, she is introduced together with Ragrus.

After that, she is frequently shown at Nayuta’s side.

Her general role remains similar to the light novel version.

Her anime design differs from the original description.

She has dark blue hair and blue eyes in the anime.

Valde’s magical armor is Rael, one of the El Series units that manipulates space.

It is a highly stealth-oriented armor suited to surprise attacks and covert action.

In the light novel, Rael is described as black armor resembling a steel reptile, with light blue magical energy circulating through it.

In the anime, it is depicted as black armor marked with orange lines.

Rael is one of the rare magical armors in the series with an asymmetrical left-right design.

That unusual appearance helps it stand out visually.

Its combat style involves connecting one space to another and warping only the arm through space.

Valde then launches sudden attacks with its sharp claws.

Rael can also hide within shadows and conceal its user’s presence.

Among magical armors, it is especially notable for its stealth capability.

Valde is one of the characters whose appearance was shown in animation before being fully visualized in the original novels.

That gives her an unusual adaptation history.

Although her first novel appearance describes her as having dark blue hair, later volumes from volume 10 onward oddly describe her as having blue hair instead.

The color illustrations at the front of the books also differ from the anime design.

Rael’s design likewise varies between the light novel and anime versions.

Both the character and her armor have noticeable differences across adaptations.
