World setting

Dungeons were originally created by ancient people in the process of accessing an alternate dimension for infinite energy to prevent the creatures from that dimension from reaching the surface world.[2] Nowadays, they are mostly ancient ruins, though some are naturally occurring.[3] Mages can study dungeon-making at school, though the subject is apparently quite difficult.[4] Dungeons always have a connection to the outside world else the flow of magical energy will be cut off.[5] Magical energy is sparse at the entrance of a dungeon.[6] Spells appear to be stronger than normal when cast in a dungeon. the deeper you go, the stronger the monsters get.

personality

Kabru is a driven and analytical young man with a strong sense of justice. He shows great curiosity towards other people, usually adopting a humble and disarming persona around them to deduce their outstanding traits and their motivations, keeping tabs on them and being able to recall everything about them with astounding detail.[3] Around his party members, he's generally more playful and supportive of them. Despite his friendly demeanor, he is deeply cynical and is particularly unforgiving of people he believes is responsible for corruption in the island, such as corpse retrievers who kill adventurers for a profit and the governor. He distrusts people who have political power to use it responsibly.[4][5] Although he has great deduction and insight skills, he lacks much experience regarding dungeons and the monsters inhabiting the island, something that has resulted in his party and himself being killed several times. he is manipulative. he often winks at people .

abilities

Kabru is quite the skilled individual due to Milsiril's teachings from when he was a child.[6][7] He's proficient at building acquaintanceships and is familiar with the majority of members of different adventuring parties. He's able to butter up to people with a friendly smile, which is frequently effective with women. His party member, Holm, even regards him as a "man who will do anything to get on someone's good side." Kabru has excellent observation skills, an impeccable memory, and is skilled at psychologically manipulating people.[8] Kabru has extremely formidable fighting skills. He is able to strike a human opponent's vital spots with ease and is even skilled with a variety of weapons, swords, daggers, and even spears.[6] He unfortunately lacks experiences or knowledge about monsters and the dungeon which leads to him and his party frequently getting wiped out.[9] Kabru can be somewhat irresponsible when it comes to housework. His landlord, the bartender of the pub above Kabru's room, cleans his room free of charge.

relationship with Rin

rin is a mage in his party. Rin is in love with Kabru, and gets jealous when he looks at other girls, but Kabru doesn't have romantic feelings for her, rather, she reminds him at least somewhat of a sibling.[11] Regardless, she trusts his ability to lead the party.

relationship with Holm

Holm is a healer/summoner in his party. Like other party members, he trusts Kabru's judgement but is aware of his two-faced nature. Kabru meanwhile respects Holm greatly for his knowledge about spirits

relationship with Mickbell

Kabru and Mickbell get along quite well, though Kabru thinks that he should learn to relax a bit.[11] He thinks that Mickbell shouldn't be so controlling of Kuro (out of fear that Kuro might leave him some day), and rather just be honest with him. Mickbell also gets angry and panicked when Kabru speaks with Kuro in the native Kobold language, presuming that Kabru is filling Kuro's head with "weird ideas".

relationship with kuro

Kabru was raised in a village that had a kobold settlement not far from it, as a result he understands more about kobold culture than the other characters,[13], and can speak a bit of the kobolds native language as well, which he sometimes uses to talk with Kuro about things that Kuro cannot articulate in common.[14] Kabru also seems to be helping Kuro learn common properly by having study sessions with him (though they have to wait until Mickbell falls asleep so that he doesn't find out about it), and grows to understand how much both Kuro and Mickbell care about each other even if they aren't on the same page about it. He hopes the two can become proper friends once they both speak the same language.

relationship with Milsiril

Milsiril is more or less Kabru's adoptive mother after the events at Utaya left him an orphan with nowhere to go. She is seen doting on him and spoiling him to an extreme degree, something that Kabru eventually grew uncomfortable with.[15][16] Milsiril also ended up comforting Kabru when he revealed that his biological mother was ostracized because of his 'unnatural' blue eyes, with the people of Utaya thinking of him as the spawn of a succubus demon, Milsiril was shown later giving Kabru all sorts of biological information as to why his eyes might be that color and telling him that he's by no means a monster.[17] Kabru feels incredibly indebted to Milsiril for raising him even if she was overbearing, however he has come to a personal understanding after growing up in that environment that 'elves will never be able to truly understand short lived races.'

relationship with Laios

Kabru was originally deeply suspicious and distrustful of Laios, all of the strange rumors about him and his party led Kabru to believe that he was a bad person.[19] After meeting him properly and finding out about his obsession with monsters however, he comes to the realization that Laios is more so just an extremely eccentric person. Kabru became convinced that Laios was the only person on the island with the skills, knowledge and determination to defeat the dungeon master[20], and decided to support him however he could.[21] Though after finding out about the true nature of dungeons and that Laios may be in danger of being tricked by a demon, he desperately wants to stop and protect him from doing anything that will get himself or his party killed.[22] He has also recently admitted to Laios that, while he absolutely hates monsters, he wanted to become Laios' friend or lover in order to at least try and understand where his love for them comes from
