Erhard's Master

His real name was not mentioned, but he is the blacksmith who taught both Erhard and Tollynemiya

Appearance
He is mention to have dog hears but quiet different from Keel type.

Personality
He is a skirt chaser, frivolous and a drunk. He is an irresponsible slacker who pushes all of the debt to his apprentices. He has a wanderlust and loves to travel to as many places as possible.

He is a womanizer and goes for any woman irrespective of race or age. He is willing to betray his nation for a woman. He is also proud of his philanderer nature. He reminded both Filo and Naofumi of Motoyasu, so Naofumi has nicknamed him "Motoyasu 2."

Abilities
He was a skilled craftsman with an unparalleled talent for making katana and sword. It is unclear if it is natural talent or his race characteristics for his craftsmanship.

He was able to doge Fohl's attack and also with stand Atlas pressure point attack.

Background
He is a vagabond from Q'ten Lo and part of a line of legendary and prestigious family of blacksmiths of the nation. Somewhere along the line, he met Erhard, who fell in love with his work and became his apprentice He advised Erhard that any blacksmith specializes in any weapon alone will hit a wall and that a blacksmith should try to keep an open mind and craft variety of weapons.

He along with most of his apprentice travel along the world and crafted variety of weapons but mostly landed in trouble because of his massive debt and womanizing habits. This became the reason for most of his apprentice to leave him midway. Tollynemiya had to leave because of his personal affairs.

He left Erhard with the note saying that Erhard is a certified blacksmith and that had nothing left to be taught. Not long after, woman and debt collector encircled Erhard. One day he was forcibly called back to Q'ten Lo after the rest of his family had died. He is responsible for crafting the specialized anti Legendary Weapons weapons based on his nation's ancient methods for suppressing the legendary weapons. He is mentioned to have serviced at-least two generation of heavenly emperor.

Volume 13
He appeared briefly after Naofumi Iwatani's, Sadeena's and Raphtalia's successful infiltration of Q'ten Lo and wasted no time flirting with the two women before Naofumi chases him off. He later returns during the group's attempt to knock out the land's isolation barrier keeping their allies away and helps by giving Naofumi and company powerful weapons.

When the barrier is finally taken down Erhard has as a friendly reunion with his old master, before kidnapping him and dragging him off to the nearest forge to have him pay off the insurmountable debt that he owes his former apprentice.

Heroes
Naofumi had a low opinion of Erhard's master from the moment he heard about him, immediately thinking about the old Motoyasu and thus coining the nickname Motoyasu #2. His opinion dropped further when he actually met the man.
