Caspond Bessarez

Caspond Bessarez (カスポンド・ベサーレス) was a royal prince of the Roble Holy Kingdom and the older brother of Calca Bessarez. The prince is currently the defacto leader of the Holy Kingdom Liberation Army after he was rescued from the internment camp.

After the war with the Demi-Human Alliance was settled, Caspond was later appointed as King of the Holy Kingdom.

Appearance

Caspond was a tall man with blue eyes and straight long blond hair that appears to be on his late twenties or his early thirties. After his release from the prison camp, Caspond is described to be a skinny individual.

Personality

Caspond was a kind prince. He can be sociable and focused at the the task at hand when the need arises. He was not interested in bloodline feuds and so he ceded the succession to his sister and does not regret his decisions.

Background

Originally, next in line for the throne of the Holy Kingdom, Caspond was passed over by his father, who gave the throne to his younger sister.

While an excellent individual in his own right, Caspond realized that his sister was even more capable than him and sought knowledge despite being born into noble society. Caspond

Although he does not regret his decision, Caspond worries about his sister's well-being. In truth, if he became the Holy King, Caspond would be much more willing to engage in underhanded activities than his sister. Hence, he would have been better suited for the throne over Calca.

When Demi-Human Alliance invaded the Northern Holy Kingdom, Caspond was killed with instant death magic upon getting captured.

Chronology

The Paladin of the Holy Kingdom Arc

Main article: The Paladin of the Holy Kingdom I and The Paladin of the Holy Kingdom II Arc

Caspond was rescued by the Holy Liberation Army after the city he was interned at was recaptured from Buser. He was later introduced to Ainz Ooal Gown and Neia Baraja by Gustav Montagnés and personally thanked the Sorcerer King for his efforts in reclaiming the kingdom. He discussed with Ainz the next step in retaking the Holy Kingdom, and the plan to retreat South to regroup with the main force.

Caspond later allowed Ainz and Neia to take their leave so that he may rest. After the two left, he spoke to Remedios and Gustav of the war effort. Rather than return to the South, Caspond stated that they would stand their ground in the city and draw Jaldabaoth to them. In order to get the demon's full attention, he intended delay the evacuation to the South long enough for demon's forces to arrive. He wanted to force a situation in which the Sorcerer King would have to fight against Jaldabaoth, and also decrease the amount of demi-humans in the area. He ordered several remaining demi-humans to be freed to spread word of the city's liberation so that the plan would go accordingly.

Relationships

Calca Bessarez

Out of all her siblings, Caspond is the only one that Calca trusts.

Baron Bagnen

Bagnen was a fellow captive during Caspond's captivity by the demi-human army. The prince showed some concern of the baron's health and requested the status of his friend's condition.

Ainz Ooal Gown

Caspond is grateful to Ainz because he was rescued by him and thus, acknowledges his power although he does not approve of his actions like sparing the demi-humans. Instead, he wants to kill them including the ones who were suffering with him. His resentment for them had gotten so strong that Caspond was even willing to trade Ainz for the holy sword belonging to Remedios so he could kill them.

Kelart Custodio

Caspond is quite rare among the royal family, since he does not bear any hatred toward Kelart.

Trivia

  • The nobles of the Southern Holy Kingdom wanted him as the Holy King instead of Calca Bessarez.

Quotes

  • (To Ainz): "Ohhh! Words cannot express my gratitude, Your Majesty. I am honored to meet you. As others have said, I am the brother who was eclipsed by my outstanding little sister."
  • (To Remedios): "Your heart would be as twisted as mine if you had tasted the same hell I did. I can't spout pretty words any more, huh. They make me sick… As for what did they do to us… I guess you haven't heard yet. In that case, go find someone and ask them. That way, you'll know exactly how evil and blasphemous demons are."
  • (To those present with him): "I want you to pretend that you did not hear what comes next. That is because I cannot guarantee you anything. However, the privileges of the Southern nobles will probably increase all of a sudden. That is why you must pick the best methods for post-war conditions."
  • (To a paladin and Ciriaco): "...Driving out the demihumans doesn't mean it's all over, you know? If the South takes all the advantages, then we'll have a hard time refusing the demands of the Southern nobles. And there's no guarantee that they won't impose heavy taxes on the exhausted people."
  • (To a paladin about Neia and Shizu): "Hehe. The fact that she's protected by that maid demon means she's the strongest in this city, you know? Trying to directly silence her is extremely dangerous, so we'll have to leave things as they are. I understand your concerns, but every move available to us is a bad one."
  • (To a messenger): "This news is very dangerous. If the army learns of it, they'll lose their will to fight and we'll lose a battle that we could have won. Also, a lot of people might end up dying. We must not tell anyone about this for the sake of unity."
  • (To Demiurge about the Roble Holy Kingdom): "Yes. In order to make this a country worthy of Ainz-sama, I must make it prosperous."
