• Hair: Green, styled in twin curly pigtails, though naturally straight when left loose.
• Eyes: Purple, reflecting her connection to Aido and the divine forces surrounding her.

Transformation into a Retter Messiah:

• Original State: Alidia was once fully human, born without any divine or supernatural powers.
• Transformation:
  • AIDO’s Desire to Protect Her: AIDO transformed Alidia into a Retter Messiah to ensure her invulnerability and immortality. This was driven by his unwillingness to allow her, the reincarnation of his beloved, to face mortal danger.
  • Primordial Soul: Alidia’s body was an avatar containing a primordial soul, which made her transformation possible. By descending her primordial essence into her physical body, AIDO was able to elevate her to a Retter Messiah.
  • Invulnerability: AIDO's main goal was to make her impervious to harm, ensuring she could stand by Aido’s side without fear.

Relationship with Aido:

• Virgin Mother of Aido:

  • Alidia gave birth to Aido without a partner, a deliberate choice by AIDO to ensure she remained untouched by anyone else.
  • AIDO’s decision was rooted in both love and possessiveness; as Alidia was already his lover in a previous incarnation, he refused to let another man father Aido.

  • His efforts aligned with Alidia’s own feelings, as she instinctively believed she was destined to be with Aido in the future.

• Her Unique Form:

  • Alidia’s petite, mature form is a result of her self-perception during her transformation into a Retter Messiah. While she has the ability to alter her appearance like all Retter Messiahs, her lack of confidence in her divine nature and her lingering human mindset limit her willingness to do so.

Background: Alidia's Journey from Hunter to Commander

Early Recruitment and Rise Through the Ranks:

After the events in her village, Alidia was recruited into the military by Arthur and Jessica, both of whom recognized her exceptional talents. Initially, Alidia was believed to be an S-Rank Hunter, possessing skills far beyond the average soldier. Her proficiency in battle, particularly her invulnerability and raw physical strength, quickly set her apart from her peers.

In the early days of her military career, Alidia preferred a lance and shield, a combination that allowed her to fight with precision, protect others, and dominate in close combat. She excelled in skirmishes, often charging headfirst into enemy lines, her natural talents making her seemingly untouchable. However, as she rose through the ranks and was entrusted with a battalion to lead, Alidia began to realize the immense pressure and responsibility that came with leadership.

The Turning Point: The Battlefield Crisis

Alidia’s leadership was tested during a dire situation where her battalion was surrounded by an overwhelming number of enemies. Up until that point, Alidia had relied on her personal strength to win battles, but now, her squad’s survival depended entirely on her decisions. She learned that quantity can be deadlier than quality—no matter how skilled an individual fighter is, they cannot protect everyone alone.

In the face of imminent death for her soldiers, Alidia’s desperation unlocked a latent ability. She unleashed a piercing cry, filled with raw emotion and power, which instinctively drew the attention of every enemy in the area. Her ability wasn’t a result of any external system, like the magic-simulation systems created by Monitor to provide techniques and abilities. Instead, this power came from her own essence, her innate being. Alidia became the first human tank, a protector capable of absorbing and redirecting enemy aggression onto herself, shielding her comrades from harm.

This ability was not only highly advanced but also completely unique, operating with a precision and efficiency far beyond what any artificial system could replicate. It solidified Alidia’s reputation, not just as a powerful warrior, but as an irreplaceable leader and defender on the battlefield.

Recognition and Advancement:

As Alidia continued to hone her abilities, she ascended the ranks at an unprecedented speed. Within a year, she was fighting alongside Frenia, one of the most legendary warriors, who personally welcomed her into the elite ranks of the army. Frenia was impressed not only by Alidia’s ability to endure the attacks of Titanic Beasts but also by her capability to kill them—a feat even Frenia struggled with due to her limitations.

Alidia’s rapid rise brought with it scrutiny and curiosity. Both Arthur and Frenia began to suspect there was more to Alidia than met the eye. Their suspicions were confirmed when Destroyer and Alidia revealed critical information about her origins and connection to AIDO. This revelation led to a decision: Alidia would only engage in direct combat when absolutely necessary. Her role was deemed too vital to risk her life recklessly. She was also granted more time to spend with Aido and Luyira, as her connection to them was seen as crucial for their development and protection.

Balancing Commander and Motherhood:

Alidia’s responsibilities became twofold—balancing her duties as a commander and her role as a mother to Aido and a guiding figure to Luyira. Despite her incredible power and rank, she willingly embraced her maternal side, often seen as an "ama de casa" (housewife) when not leading soldiers. This duality in her life made her one of the most grounded and respected figures in both the army and her family.

Her time with Aido and Luyira became her most cherished moments. She made it a priority to guide Aido as he grew into his role as a hero while also mentoring Luyira, who shared a similar potential.

Frenia’s Interest in Luyira:

During this time, Frenia, who had formed a bond with Alidia on the battlefield, expressed a desire to meet Luyira, curious about her unique connection to Aido and her immense power. However, Frenia’s protective nature and fear of something happening in her absence held her back from fully embracing this meeting. This dynamic created a unique relationship between Alidia and Frenia—both women respected each other deeply and shared a protective instinct over those they loved.

Evolving as a Leader:

Alidia’s experiences on the battlefield shaped her into a brilliant tactician and an empathetic leader. She learned that being a commander was not just about strength but about strategy, sacrifice, and protecting those who depended on her. This growth allowed her to balance her personal desires with the responsibilities of leadership, earning her the unwavering loyalty and admiration of her soldiers.

Her ability to protect and inspire made her a beacon of hope for her battalion, a figure who could endure anything and emerge victorious. Yet, at her core, Alidia remained the loving, understanding woman who sought nothing more than to create a safe and happy world for Aido and their family.

The Legacy of Alidia:

Alidia’s story is one of transformation and balance. From a young woman thrust into a world of chaos to a Retter Messiah and a commander, she has grown into a figure of unmatched strength and compassion. Her ability to navigate her dual roles—as a protector on the battlefield and as a mother and lover in her personal life—makes her an irreplaceable part of Aido’s journey.

Her ambitions are simple yet profound:

1. To protect her loved ones, especially Aido and Luyira.
2. To maintain her humanity and connection to those around her, despite her divine nature.
3. To create a legacy of love, strength, and hope in a world constantly threatened by darkness.

In Alidia, the forces of divinity and humanity converge, creating a character who embodies both the fragility and resilience of the human spirit, even as she wields the power of a Retter Messiah.
