Judithe

Judithe (ユーディット, Yuuditto) is an apprentice guard knight who serves as a retainer to Rozemyne. She recently completed her second year at the Royal Academy.

Judithe has sparkling violet eyes and fluffy, bright orange hair. She wears it pulled back into a ponytail to match the hairstyle worn by Angelica before coming of age. She has an expressive face.

Judithe's family stems from Kirnberger. Her father is one of the knights protecting the gate to the neighboring country.

A talkative and energetic girl, Judithe aspires to be a skilled guard knight like her idol, Angelica. When she is accepted as a retainer, she is thrilled and resolves to become “as strong as she can” to be useful to Rozemyne. Judithe dislikes feeling “left behind” and works hard to keep up with the other retainers.

When Judithe enters her third year at the Royal Academy, she plans to enroll in the Knight’s Course specialization.

When Rozemyne greets her fellow students in the Ehrenfest dormitory, Judithe is eagerly talking about her admiration for Angelica. Rozemyne recalls seeing her in passing in the winter playroom several years before. Not sure what to make of Judithe’s effusive praise, Angelica avoids eye contact and comments that she’s a “weird girl”.

Judithe shares a room with Philine. Later in the school term, she worries that Philine’s poor grades combined with her low social status will make life difficult for her.

When Dunkelfelger and Ehrenfest play a match of treasure-stealing ditter to settle a dispute over Schwartz and Weiss, Judithe is a member of the Ehrenfest team. Due to her skill and accuracy with a slingshot, she is chosen to accompany Rozemyne and Leonore on Lessy. She later follows Rozemyne’s instructions and shoots a dyed feystone into the mouth of the opposing team’s captive feybeast, which gives Ehrenfest a pivotal advantage in the match and ultimately leads to their victory.

After the match ends, Judithe and Leonore help to critique the performance of the Ehrenfest team using the insight they gathered watching the battle from the sky.

When Rozemyne is ordered to return to Ehrenfest partway through the school term, Judithe is the only apprentice knight who has not yet finished all of her practical classes. She is very disappointed to be left behind.

After finishing all her second year courses, Judithe asks for permission to join the training of the guard knights. Rudolf, having experienced Leonore's merciless training firsthand, tries to warn her away. However, Leonore grabs hold of Judithe's cape before she can escape. She is then put through the same hellish training as the apprentice knights. She finishes the day sprawled on the ground, too exhausted to care about looking unladylike.

After finishing their first year at the Royal Academy, Rozemyne's new retainers began to also serve her at the archduke's castle. Judithe is eager to help, because she had been unable to serve Rozemyne when she was left behind at the Royal Academy. However, she is disappointed to learn that she will be trained by Bonifatius rather than serve as a guard knight.


 * Judithe is a skilled markswoman. She can make accurate ranged attacks with both magical and nonmagical projectile weapons.

Spoiler from Part 4 Volume 4 Her accuracy and range from just her muscle-strength alone even impressed Bonifatius, who has notoriously high standards for knights. He suggested she learn enhancement magic to further boost her ranged skills.
