Farman Cregos is the vice principal of Easton Magic Academy in Mashle, a middle-aged man with a long Kaiser mustache and a distinctive scar running across his face, known for his corruption and secret connection with Lloyd Cavill.
Farman Cregos serves as vice principal at Easton Magic Academy and is voiced by Joji Aoyama in the anime adaptation.
He presents himself as a strict, intimidating authority figure but is deeply involved in behind-the-scenes misconduct.
He is secretly in league with Lloyd Cavill, a high-ranking Magic Bureau official’s son, and has been bought off to protect Lloyd’s interests.
Through this alliance, he helped force numerous students into expulsion, using his position to manipulate school affairs.
Farman embodies the image of a corrupt aristocratic educator: outwardly proper, inwardly rotten.
His reputation among students is one of fear and oppression rather than respect.
Farman is calculating, self-serving, and unashamedly corrupt.
He sides with power and status, seeing students as expendable pieces in his political and personal games.
He relies heavily on intimidation, using his position, his glare, and his scarred face to pressure others into submission.
However, his authority collapses the moment he faces someone like Mash Burnedead, who simply does not fear him.
Despite his bravado, Farman is ultimately cowardly.
Once he experiences real danger and humiliation, he chooses to lie low rather than seek revenge.
Farman is a middle-aged man with a long, distinguished Kaiser-style mustache that gives him a stiff, old-fashioned look.
A single, bold scar runs horizontally across his face, making his appearance even more severe and intimidating.
His overall demeanor is stern and overbearing, designed to project dominance over students and staff alike.
This image, however, is undermined once he is easily overpowered by Mash.
Farman’s main narrative role is as a corrupt authority figure colluding with Lloyd Cavill.
He uses his position to look the other way when Lloyd commits wrongdoing and to crush any students who become inconvenient.
He appears at the scene where Lloyd has just been punished by Mash Burnedead.
Enraged and feeling his authority challenged, Farman tries to threaten both Mash and Finn Ames, intending to “deal with” them under the pretense of discipline.
Farman and Lloyd Cavill are bound by mutual benefit.
Farman protects Lloyd’s misdeeds and abuses his school authority, while Lloyd rewards him with influence, backing, and presumably material gain.
Their relationship is not one of genuine loyalty but of shared corruption.
Together, they orchestrated the expulsion or removal of many students who were inconvenient to their goals.
According to later materials, Farman is a descendant of a corrupt noble family deeply tied to Lloyd’s family.
This aristocratic background helps explain why he so easily aligns himself with Lloyd’s abuse of power and systemic corruption.
When Farman confronts Mash Burnedead and Finn Ames after Lloyd has been defeated, he tries to intimidate them with his status and menace.
He intends to punish them harshly, using school regulations as a weapon.
Mash, completely unfazed by Farman’s threats, responds in a purely physical and direct way.
He drives his knee into Farman’s face, sending a clear message that he does not recognize Farman’s corrupt authority.
Mash then buries Farman in the ground, leaving only his head exposed while the rest of his body is trapped beneath the floor.
In this humiliating state, Farman is forced to listen as Mash warns him that if he tries something like this again, he will be truly buried alive next time.
This moment turns Farman’s intimidation-based persona on its head.
The man who has terrorized students for so long becomes the one who is terrified and powerless.
In bonus material from the collected volumes, it is revealed that Mash’s “punishment” leaves a deep psychological scar on Farman.
The experience becomes a trauma, and he develops a strong fear of Mash Burnedead.
Because of this fear, Farman makes a deliberate effort to avoid Mash entirely.
He stops drawing attention to himself, choosing to live quietly and inconspicuously within the academy.
He no longer acts as brazenly as before and does his best to stay out of situations that could put him in Mash’s path.
In a sense, the once overbearing vice principal has been reduced to a background figure trying not to be noticed.
The official fanbook reveals that Farman Cregos is a descendant of corrupt nobility.
His noble lineage is heavily intertwined with Lloyd Cavill’s family, cementing their alliance and shared interests.
This heritage explains his elitist mindset and his willingness to sacrifice ordinary students for the sake of high-born families.
Farman is not just a lone bad teacher; he represents a larger, entrenched system of aristocratic corruption.
