Root

Unofficial

Root (ルト, Ruto) is a character in this series. Root is one of the Greater Dragons watching the world from the shadows for thousands of years and can take the form of either a male or female Hyuman. Root is one of the people who built the Adventurer's Guild together with her deceased husband. Root is an existence that is treated on equal footing with the Goddess.

Hyuman
Root has the ability to change his/her appearance and gender. In female form, Root is a tall woman with long straight silver hair. As a woman, Root is a high-level beauty that can captivate anyone who catches sight of her. Currently Root looks like a handsome teenage boy.

Dragon
Root as a dragon look like a golden occidental/western-style dragon with three pairs of wings with different sizes and two blue gems on his torso. He also has a very strong, muscular body. He can stand on his feet, unlike other occidental dragons. His appearance as a dragon is rarely seen because he rarely interacts in dragon form. His dragon's form only appears in old legends.

Personality
They have a very flirtatious and easy-going personality. Root enjoys causing mischief and tends to ignore people who are no longer interesting, even if they are blood related. Despite that, they care deeply for all their children.

Root is rarely surprised due to the many things they has seen in their long life. One of the reasons why they likes humans/hyumans is because they never cease to interest and amuse them.

In the past, they really enjoyed their first experiences like having children. They was a little overly eager, as described by Rokuya. Over thousands of years they has develop a very kinky, romantic and naughty experience of anything sexual, causing them to be a very perverted individual that can make other perverts in the series look like saints. They have an innate attraction to Japanese Humans, because of they're first husband who was a kind, just and naughty individual from Japan.

Background
Root once attempted to absorb the powers of all the other Greater Dragons to become a god. Because of this many of their children are scared of they're presence. Only Tomoe seems to have forgiven them of this incident, causing Root to tearfully hug they're daughter much to Tomoe's chagrin. Often makes Tomoe jealous anytime Root flirts around with Makoto.

Chronology
After Makoto gets forcibly summoned by the Goddess to save the country of Lima, Tomoe, unaware of who actually took her master, assumed that it was either the Goddess or Root who took Makoto. Tomoe, in a fit of rage, falsely confronted Root about Makoto's disappearance.

Makoto first encounters Root in chapter 104 at his company store in Academy Town.

Quotes
(Root thought of Makoto): "Not a human and yet, human; doesn’t have talent, and yet, surpasses talent; doesn’t worry when killing someone, and yet, when his family is hurt, his heart will suffer. Terribly opaque, vague, his thought patterns and decision making is that of a commoner; and yet, he is walking a completely different path from a commoner. There’s no otherworldler who I have felt so much interest in watching his progress at his side. It really… arouses me”

(Root to tomoe): ''“Yeah, no doubt. When I lost my first partner, I was engulfed with an overwhelming sense of loss. To the point that, for a while, I couldn’t see the value of the world I held so important”''

(Root to Tomoe): ''“There’s nothing we can do about that. I have met with more than 10 humans in my life and have parted with them, but there’s no choice but to get used to it. Every single one of them is charming in their own way, and when I have to part with them, it is truly painful though”''

(Root thought of Tomoki): "The Empire’s hero probably won’t live long. He is completely entranced to his own position of being a hero, or more like, drunk at his own position as a special being. For the sake of protecting that, he would easily sacrifice anything. Counting himself."

(Root thought of Hibiki): "The Kingdom’s hero has everything hidden inside her. To the point that it is not even interesting. That… will probably rule over the hyumans in a future. Naturally gathering people around her, naturally utilizing people; in that sense, she surpasses the millions. Truly a history engraving hero. I can predict the movements of those two to a certain extent you see."
