Keel (Spin-off)

Keel (キール) is Naofumi's slave in the spin-off series The Reprise of the Spear Hero. She was bought as the Shield Hero's first slave instead of Raphtalia.

Appearance
Keel appears as a young boy with dog-like features. Due to the effects of the Lust Curse Series, Keel's face looks like a pig's to Motoyasu.

Personality
Keel was first introduced as an ill-behaving child due to being a slave but later enthusiastically helps out after Naofumi introduced himself as the Shield Hero. Keel despises dressing as a girl but later obliges.

Background
Motoyasu had to request for Keel through the Slave Trader's network. It is assumed that he was bought from Idol.

Chronology
During his fourth loop, Motoyasu remembers that Keel was one of Naofumi's slaves in the original timeline and specifically asks for him to the Slave Merchant. The Slave Merchant agrees to look at the cost of 50 silvers. Naofumi and Motoyasu check back later and find that the Slave Merchant found an ill-tempered Keel. They take Keel as a slave. Since Motoyasu's curse forces him to see most females as pigs, he is not fooled by Keel's boyish clothing.

Naofumi reveals to Keel that he is the shield hero which gains Keel's trust. Naofumi then takes Keel to the weapon shop to get geared up. Later, when Naofumi and Motoyasu reunite, Naofumi shows his appreciation for Keel acting as his sword.

Later on, Motoyasu creates girl's clothing for Keel to sell medicine in which Keel vehemently refuses. Yuki is insulted that Keel doesn't want to wear the clothes Motoyasu created for her but Sakura comes to his defense. Naofumi eventually convinces him to wear the clothes. Later we see Keel successfully selling medicine.
