Mald/Relationships

Itsuki Kawasumi
Itsuki views Mald positively and believes him. But, Mald continuously fuels Itsuki's desire to praise just to be on his good side. He calls Itsuki to be the Master for his deeds being greater than the other three heroes, at-least according to Itsuki's party, whether it is his true feeling or just praise is debatable. However, he and other members of the Itsuki's party abandoned Itsuki in times of the Spirit Tortoise incident, leading to Itsuki's mental breakdown.

Naofumi Iwatani
Both didn't respect each other but didn't show it at face. Naofumi noted of his personality and tried to avoid him. During the incident of Melty's kidnap, Mald was the first one to charge in to attack Naofumi and became the first victim of curse burn. Mald considers Naofumi to be a criminal and the Demon Lord of the Shield, despite the latter's name being cleared and the Church of the Three Heroes being outlawed by the time the two of them actually met. Naofumi suspects Mald's condescending attitude towards him may be due to constant bad-mouthing of Itsuki or may be due to the centuries of the preaching of the Church of Three Heroes of the Shield Hero being a villain. Naofumi also calls him Armor because he can't be bothered to remember Mald's name and thinks of him as nothing but a pain.

Ren Amaki
In the light novel, Ren too finds his personality disgusting and was more irritated, when Mald claims Ren and Naofumi to be inferior to Itsuki.

Rishia Ivyred (former)
Mald also looked down on Rishia, believing her to be weak, and made her do all the errands from carrying their luggage to making their lunch.

Welst
He shares the same opinion of Mald and accompanied him.

Malty S Melromarc
She joined Mald in insulting Raphtalia for her being a Demi-Human, during the first heroes conference. She again joined with him.
