Count Bindewald

Count Bindewald (ビンデバルト伯爵 Bindebaruto-hakushaku) is an archnoble from Ahrensbach who is interested in Devouring commoners.

He planned an assault to obtain Myne during Spring Prayer using his Devouring soldiers, which resulting in a fail. Therefore, he schemes with Bezewanst to force a submission contract onto Myne during the Archduke's Conference, because the archduke would be away from Ehrenfest. So, Bezewanst forged documents that allow Count Bindewald to enter Ehrenfest. After entering Ehrenfest his devouring soldiers tried to kidnap Myne involving Tuuli as a victim. Myne managed to escape with the others and defeat Count Bindewald's lackeys. After she arrived in the temple she learns that Count Bindewald forced a submission contract onto Dirk. After a fight in front of Ferdinand's chambers, Count Bindewald was eventually deemed guilty and his plans failed. He was held in custody so that his memory could be searched to collect evidences for the deeds he commited.

As he is an imprisoned noble, mana is extracted from him to help compensate for the lack of mana in Ehrenfest. This mana was then used in the dedication ritual in the temple.
