Personality[]
L'Arc is a man of war as he has the spirit of fighting as he takes on Naofumi and his party and gets excited while facing a challenge. He tends to stay carefree even during battle and always likes to have a fair fight as even when facing Naofumi and believing his world to be on the line, he still attempts to fight Naofumi fairly as he wants the thrill of fighting a real battle. He also hates the other heroes as they attempted to feel like they did anything during the battle of the third wave and even called them "weak" as he and Therese were only interested in Naofumi.
When L'Arc first met Naofumi, he had a hard time believing that he was the Shield Hero because of his reputation and saw that Naofumi was nothing like what the rumors said but saw that he really was the Shield Hero as he only had the shield and was the only one other than the other three heroes that had cardinal abilities. Because of this L'Arc was distraught since he believed that he had to kill Naofumi to save his world showing his remorse and empathy for having to kill a good person as he thought it would be easier to kill a horrible person for his mission. After Naofumi rescued Kizuna, their relationship improved, and they became more like brother figures to each other.
He is a highly respectable king in his country as the other subjects respect him and he is very charismatic, witty, and heroic since he is able to sway people to his side without much effort.
