Interview with Cain & Owen
This issue’s cover features Cain and Owen, who answered four questions for us!
Q1. What are your impressions of each other?
Cain:
He's a dangerous and terrifying wizard. My left eye is proof of that. He’s a creepy and unpleasant guy who can steal someone’s eye and laugh it off like it’s nothing... But to face the calamity, I’ll need his power too. I have to figure out how to approach him and find a way to work together.
Owen:
He’s a ridiculous guy who swings his sword around without using magic, devoting himself to humans. I exposed him completely, even taking his eyeball. In the Central Kingdom, wizards can’t become knights, can they? Oh, how pitiful. That’s why, even though he lost his title, I still call him “knight” as a little courtesy. Aren’t I kind?
Q2. What’s your impression of the new Sage (Akira)?
Cain:
They got caught up in something dangerous before they even knew left from right. Even though I had no right to stop them from following whoever they chose, they looked me straight in the eye, listened to what I had to say, and chose to side with us. I’m truly grateful. For Akira, I’ll do anything I can.
Owen:
We’ve just met, so I don’t really know yet, but I want to have lots of conversations. About what they like, what they hate, about the Sage themself... I want them to bare everything, from the messy, chaotic, soft, and deep parts of their heart. If they do that, I’m sure we’ll become great friends.
Q3. What do you think about the wizards from the Central Country and the Northern Country?
Cain:
I never expected Prince Arthur to be summoned. It’s an honor to stand alongside him as a fellow wizard of the Central Country. Riquet is reckless but endearing, and Oz is a bit difficult, but he’s not impossible to talk to. I’ll do my best to make us into a good team!
Owen:
I hate the twins—they’re too naggy. Mithra is fine to meet every now and then, but I don’t like how he suddenly changes his mind and starts attacking. Bradley annoys me because he occasionally says cheeky things. Still, I’m forced to see them every year whether I like it or not. It’s such a bothersome and troublesome role.
Q4. How do you spend the New Year?
Cain:
Singing, dancing, drinking, and partying all night long! But I still stay on alert in case of emergencies. Back when I was in the knight order, we’d all crash on the floor together so we wouldn’t be late for training the next day. In the end, we’d always scramble to get ready at the last minute, but even that is a good memory now.
Owen:
Nothing changes. I look out over the dazzling snowy fields reflecting the moonlight, feel the icy wind on my skin, and hear wolves howling in the distance... Then, before I know it, the night has passed. And just like that, another unchanging day begins.
