8Rio Karasuki
The Protagonist of the Series, Unparalleled in Strength and Magic
As the protagonist ofSeirei Gensouki: Spirit Chronicles,Rio is a powerhouse, unrivaled in both magic and physical combat. Even in his previous life as Amakawa Haruto, he had trained in kendo and martial arts. As a result, he becomes adept at swordsmanship by channeling his magic power throughout his body. Moreover, Rio has a high affinity for spirit magic and contracts with a person-shaped spirit, naming her Aishia.
His near-infinite mana pool allows him to easily enhance his body to unleash powerful attacks without reaching his limits. His bond with Aishia further helps him amplify his already god-like potential. Together, they can quickly subdue the most potent foes, including transcendental beings. He is also intelligent about his actions and capable of creating strategies without relying on strength alone.
7Sora
Dragonman Species That Even Other Dragons Fear
Sora is a half-dragon species who becomes Rio’s familiar after she believes him to be the reincarnation of a dragon she once respected and treated as a father. Although she has the physique of a ten-year-old child, she can manifest her dragon powers, giving her incredible physical resilience and nearlyinvilnerability to magic-based attacks.
Although she was initially born as a human, the dragon king made her his familiar, which stopped Sora’s physical and mental growth. To her, the dragon king was her father, teacher, and master, whom she served for more than 500 years. When he departed after a great divine-demon war, he made Sora promise to protect the Yagumo region. However, she regains her former self after becoming Rio’s familiar and becoming more assertive. She gets dragonification, summoning powers, and intense physical and magical powers. Dragonification allows her to partially or fully become a dragon, and summoning allows her to summon Rio to her location upon his consent. Her status as a dragonman also makes her feared among the other draconic species.
6Sakuraba Erika
A Tragic Villain Who Combines Brute Force With Magic
Sakuraba Erika is the last and sixth hero summoned to the world. Although her initial journey into the world isn’t documented,she does have a tragic backstory.

Regarding her combat abilities, she has a tremendous mana pool as a summoned hero of the world. Moreover, she is a saint who can use divine magic and weapons with an additional high affinity for the earth element. Despite her lack of combat experience, she has sheer power and endurance, reflected in her battles with Rio. She could even knock out Aria, making her a commendable adversary with a blend of brute force and magical enhancement.

Taking pride in his skills, he became an adventurer and created his own mercenary faction called the Heavenly Lion Mercenary Group. He would also go around challenging stronger people than him and using underhanded tactics to come out victorious. He has a good mastery over magical swords and is a persistent threat in theSeirei Gensouki: Spirit Chroniclesseries.He uses the Demon Sword, which allows him to control space, stab through space from a long distance, and teleport himself at short distances.
