Yue

Yue (ユエ) is one of the main female protagonists of the Arifureta Shokugyou de Sekai Saikyou series.

She is a vampire who was imprisoned in the abyss. Her uncle and vassels betrayed her and sealed her away because of her monstrous level of magic and regeneration. She is Hajime's lover and first wife.

Appearance
Yue is a vampire with a porcelain-like complexion, red eyes, and a child-like figure. After being freed from Ehit control, Yue can change her body's maturity at will, going between from a teenage to an adult. Yue usually wears a stoic expression but always shows a smile towards Hajime.

Yue's adventure outfit consists of a frilly white dress shirt as well as a black frilly mini skirt. She wears a white coat with blue lining as well as a short pair of boots and knee-high socks.

Personality
"Everything I hold dear was given to me by Hajime. If he hadn’t freed me that day, I would likely still be trapped in the dark depths of the abyss. He gave me a reason to live. Thanks to him, I met my best friend, a member of the race I admire so much, and a friend I can be myself around. I’m sure that from here on out, I’ll keep receiving things from Hajime, which is why I want Hajime to find things important to him as well. Whether they be people, objects, or something else entirely. Once this journey is over, I want to see Hajime smiling in the sunlight, surrounded by tons of people he treasures."

- Yue describing her feelings for Hajime

Yue's personality is greatly affected by Hajime. Yue always priorities the safety or happiness of Hajime above even her own. She is quickly annoyed at any man who would try to flirt with her or insults Hajime in any way, but this can also be applied to females who try to seduce Hajime as shown in her diary entries concerning Shea and Tio. However, she is willing to fight fairly for Hajime's affections against women who she believes earnestly love Hajime as seen with her initial relationship with Shea and later Kaori. Yue is especially resentful to anyone who hurts Hajime in any way and with not be satisfied until they have either greatly suffered or died. This is shown when she goes after Freid Bagwa during the attack on the Kingdom for nearly killing Hajime during their first encounter.

Outside of her extreme loyalty and love for Hajime, Yue has abandonment issues or fear of abandonment caused by her past. This is shown during her time in the Schnee Frost Caverns, where the traps in the labyrinth manifest her insecurities. Those insecurities extend to her being unable to remain at Hajime and her friends side as she worries that her past will come back to haunt her, which caused her to entrust Hajime to Shea should something happen to her.

Being a former Queen, Yue still carries the air of someone who stands above others, giving off a regal and majestic air around herself. Combined with her breathtaking beauty and awe-inspiring magic, many find themselves easily drawn towards her and wouldn't mind serving her. Stemming from this, Yue doesn't hesitate to enforce her will on others without caring about what they think or say, not even giving them the option to say anything but what she wants to hear, something Hajime experiences many times.

As someone who resided in the same era as the dragonmen, Yue held a deep respect for them until she meets Tio. However, she still carries that respect for proper dragonmen as seen whenever Tio acts like her refined and noble self, which causes Yue to become amazed.

Yue is very seductive when it comes to Hajime and is proud of it, not even trying to hide what she's done with him and would actually boast about it in front of others (much to Hajime's embarrassment). She enjoys using any opportunity to flirt with him, drink his blood or have sex with him, much to the other girls annoyance and dismay. Yue is even known to attack Hajime sexually when they're alone. As found out in her diary, these desires border on addiction and she can't stand going long periods of time without having Hajime. Hypocritically, Yue has called Kaori a pervert for small reasons when she herself has done far more perverted things to Hajime. Yue is willing to admit this, if only to further rub her relationship in Kaori's face.

Despite her advanced age and maturity, Yue is very childish and is shown to lack a great deal of common sense. Usually, she comes off as an attention seeker when it comes to Hajime as she's always looking for praise from him and can't stand when he leaves her out of a conversation. She enjoys acting smug, which makes her a sore loser to the point of being too serious about the smallest things. During her first Valentine's Day since arriving on Earth, Yue is shown to have developed a slight inferiority complex when it comes to beating Myu in terms of her homemade chocolates. As well, even though she's proud of her looks, she can't stand having her child-like figure mocked or her age pointed out. She's also very irresponsible and dislikes being lectured about what she's done wrong, usually trying to avoid the subject. Her childishness is more noticeable when it comes to her love rival Kaori; she often shown pulls inappropriate pranks on Kaori, boasting about what she's done with Hajime in front of her and getting into small fights with her. After moving to Earth, Yue has become mentally more childish to point where she's become a NEET after realizing that she was the only member of the Nagumo family that wasn't busy. Even when she tried to find work, she couldn't hold onto them for long for different reasons.

Weapons & Equipment

 * Smartphone - A hybrid smartphone that combines modern technology with crystal display made in another world. It can contact other worlds, fire lasers of concentrated super small sunlight with the thickness of a needle, and it also continuously takes the vital data of the owner, and in the case the owner’s vital entered critical stage because of some abnormality, the smartphone automatically opens a small gate, firing the light of the satellite type resurrection magic artifact operating outside the earth’s atmosphere, Bel Agarta.

Tio, a powerful Dragonmen who is both older and more experience than Yue has openly acknowledged Yue's skills in magic are greater than her own, which is more impressive by the fact that Yue was locked away for 300 years, being unable to do anything during that time.

After the defeat of Ehit, Yue's magical abilities have reached divine levels, even being capable of traveling across worlds on her own if she needs to.

 * Creation Magic - One of the "Ancient Magic" originating from the "Age of Gods", which grants the ability to imbue magical properties to minerals, creating a new ore with special traits. It is the only form of Magic which allows the creation of an "Artifact". Creation Magic requires one to have the transmutation magic to fully utilizes its true capabilities which is why Yue did not intend to learn it at first as it was useless for her. The true power of this magic is the ability to 'interfere with any inorganic material'.
 * Gravity Magic - One of the "Ancient Magic" originating from the "Age of Gods", it gives the user control over gravity. The true power of this magic is the ability to 'interfere with the energy of star', and just not gravity. Theoretically, it could also interfere with things like earth vein or terrestrial heat, bedrock or magma; and it isn’t impossible to use this magic to purposefully generate earthquake or volcano eruption.
 * Spatial Magic - One of the "Ancient Magic" originating from the "Age of Gods", it allows the user to manipulate the space around themselves, allowing them to either bend or expand the space near them or move themselves to another space or location. The true power of this magic is the ability to 'interfere with the boundary'. Meaning it can allow the user to manipulate anything, like the elimination of race-creature gap, or formulating new boundary to create a spirit world; it's possible to achieve those kinds of things.
 * Restoration Magic - One of the "Ancient Magic" originating from the "Age of Gods", which allows the user to restore the state of anything to either its previous or original condition. The true power of this magic is the ability to 'interfere with the time', meaning it has the ability to manipulate the time of anything, anyplace or anyone to a point the user desires to.
 * Spirit Magic - One of the "Ancient Magic" originating from the "Age of Gods", which allows the user to manipulate the soul of a living being directly. It's possible to revive a living being back from the dead (time restriction applicable), or transfer the soul of a living being from one body to another, or even into a non-physical body as well, practically granting any living being immortality. The true power of this magic is the ability to 'interfere with the negative material possessed by living thing'. To be more specific, this magic could also interfere with things like energy inside the body that was magic power, heat, electricity, then thought, consciousness, memory. Those who have mastery over this magic can even create an artificial consciousness, and allow it to inhabit any body they wish.
 * Evolution Magic - One of the "Ancient Magic" originating from the "Age of Gods", which allows the user to enhance or evolve all other forms of power, be it strong or weak. It can work on even other "Ancient Magic" as well, boosting their power and scope. The true power of this magic is the ability to 'interfere with the information about existing things'. This magic enhanced or evolved an ability or power by a stage of 1, by interfering with the targets information, and the increased it one-by-one stage.
 * Metamorphosis Magic - One of the "Ancient Magic" originating from the "Age of Gods", which allows a user to remake the form of a normal being and reform them into a different form. Normally it's used to remake a normal organism and turn it into a monster, or even manipulate the magic stone of a monster and remake them. But the true power of this magic is the ability to 'interfere with any organic material'. Meaning not only animals, but it's also possible to remake plants or intelligent beings, and reform their structure as needed. Even byproducts of organic material, like paper or food, can also be manipulated by this magic. The magic stone which gets created during the process is just a byproduct of the process.
 * Concept Magic - It is a form of "Ancient Magic art" which is a combination of many other ancient magic, the main ability of Concept magic is that allows one to interfere with the laws of the world and impress concepts upon it. By raising up a powerful wish or desire with Spirit Magic and Evolution Magic, it can be raised to a level of a concept before being forcefully materialized with magical power. However, since the user's desire at of the time of use, is used as the base of the magic, to raise up and create the concept, the spell may not remain stable in subsequent uses, thus a single spell can only be used once under most circumstances. However if the desire is still needed, it can be used more than once, like in the case of Hajime's crystal key which had the concept of "I want to return home" in it, was destroyed by Ehit he was still able to recreate the crystal key again because his desire of wanting to return home was still there. It should be noted however that concept magic requires the user to concentrate on raising up their wish in order to materialize the concept, as such it wouldn't be useful in a battle where the user is under attack. Also, some concepts aren't possible to materialize by the user on their own, for example, Hajime could only make degraded versions of the crystal key without Yue.
