Mena Quinone is the talkative, blonde older sister of the Quinone mercenary duo from "Suppose a Kid from the Last Dungeon Boonies moved to a starter town?".
Mena is a young woman with blonde hair and slender eyes.
She has a smaller build compared to her younger sister, Phyllo.
She has a very chatty and cheerful personality.
Mena is also a big eater with a hearty appetite, though her sister's is even more impressive.
Mena and her sister Phyllo work together as the "Quinone Sisters," a mercenary pair.
They were hired by the Rokujou Magic Academy, initially serving as temporary instructors for an upcoming magic tournament.
Mena is a pure mage who demonstrates exceptional talent in Water Magic.
Her skills are so advanced that the observer Choline Strase commented she was good enough to "do well even at the world tournament level."
Water Ball
This is Mena's signature and most lethal technique.
She creates a sphere of water that completely envelops her opponent's head, cutting off their oxygen to suffocate them.
Phyllo Quinone
Phyllo is Mena's younger sister and mercenary partner. Mena works hard to pay for Phyllo's tuition at a military academy.
Lloyd Belladonna
Lloyd was Mena's opponent during the magic tournament. He handed her a shocking defeat with his extraordinary and unconventional abilities.
Her name is likely derived from "Menaquinone," which is another name for Vitamin K2.
She is voiced by the actress Haruka Tomatsu.
The Azami Kingdom Tournament
Mena traveled to the Azami Kingdom with her sister Phyllo and Director Rol of the Rokujou Magic Academy.
She was brought on as a temporary instructor for the Student Magic Tournament being held there.
Her initial mission from Rol was to track down a person named Riho Flavin.
However, her role soon changed when Rol enrolled her as a student, allowing her to officially compete for Rokujou.
Overwhelming the Competition
Mena quickly proved her formidable power a day before the tournament by instantly defeating Mikona Zol, Azami Academy's top second-year student.
Once the matches began, she easily overwhelmed her opponents using her deadly "Water Ball" technique.
The Finals: A Shocking Defeat
In the final round against Azami Academy, Mena faced off against Lloyd Belladonna.
She confidently initiated the match with her "Water Ball," expecting a quick and easy win.
To her disbelief, the technique was useless against Lloyd, whose superhuman lung capacity allows him to hold his breath for an hour.
Forced to change her strategy, Mena prepared to unleash advanced magic, but was defeated before she could.
Lloyd used his wind spell "Air-ryo (a mispronunciation)," which was so powerful it blew away Mena and her defensive magic, slamming her into a wall outside the arena.
The audience, completely unaware of Lloyd's true strength, misinterpreted the event. They assumed Mena had panicked after her signature move failed and accidentally blew herself up in a magical control mishap.
After the Tournament
After her contract with Rokujou concluded, Mena found new employment for a particular reason.
She was hired as a court magician for the Azami Kingdom, where she now works hard to earn money for her sister's military academy fees.
