Personality
Azul is very well known around NRC not only as his status as dorm leader of Octavinelle, but rumors float around about him capable of granting any wish one desires with the exchange of said person's most prided quality (ex: unique magic). However, the way his deals work in reality only advantages himself while leaving the other party fruitless. Upon first seeing Azul, he came of as 'friendly' and willing to 'help' others. He is also intelligent in arraging words in order so that a deal may seem precise to the client's wish, when in reality those words were arranged to have 'grey areas', as in scamming his client. Azul is also known to be sly, being able to convinve almost anyone to sign a contract with him. He is also seen to be skilled in every aspect. However, the truth is revealed, and Azul has actually been very insecure about himself, especially his chubby octopus form (the word chubby is based on Floyd). To combat his insecurity, he studied magic non-stop as a child and managed to form his unique magic in a young age. Using his unique magic, he steals other people's talent and uses it to his advantage. After the incident of episode 3, Azul still has insecurities about his past self, although with the help of others, slowly got over it. He also stopped tricking his customers and developed a new way for students to do meetings with him.

Trivia

If the target doesn’t fulfill the contract's conditions, they're bound to work under Azul indefinitely.
