==Personality==
===Early Years===
From a young age in his new life, Arthur exhibits a maturity and strategic understanding that surpasses his peers, a result of his previous life’s memories and experiences. His logical maturity allows him to see the broader implications of events around him, making him a wise and insightful individual. As a child, Arthur enjoyed his moments as a toddler for a second time, admiring his own cuteness as a newborn as he looked his new self in the mirror in front of his parents and even being excited to attract young ladies in his later years. Due to being a baby with the mind of a grown man, Arthur was readily excited to grab some books about magic in his parent's house. He began to observe the dialects in it and the system of how magic is used. Almost right away, a toddler Arthur was capable of concentrating his mind to form a key center through meditation before he was interrupted by his mother. Arthur was initially impressed by his father's training to learn magic, but was soon disappointed when his father's potential magic failed to reached his expectation. When being forced by his mother to take a nap, Arthur takes advantage of his adorable appearance as a toddler to change his mother's mind. At any opportunity for his leisure, Arthur would practice meditation. Eventually, Arthur was able to form a mana core, which abruptly blew his parents' house, but left him intact to his parent's shock. Arthur was so captivated by his own accomplishment that took a few seconds before he realized that his meditation session blew a great section of his house. Despite his relatively young age, he was capable of catching Adam Krensh, a member of his father's party, off guard with the techniques he acquired in his past life. This skill left everyone, including his parents shocked as they know they did not teach him such techniques, to which Arthur try to convince them that he did so by reading books and observing his father. 
When Arthur, his parents, and the Twin Horns Party were surrounded by the Great Mountains Bandit Leader and his men, Arthur was confident in his skills and proposed to assist his father's friends to fight the bandits, despite Arthur's small size and petite size. Regardless, Arthur was brave and continues to impress others with skills that no ordinary child can achieve by deflecting the bandits' projectiles and even being able to push his power seconds before getting hit by a giant water attack. After being separated from his family and his father's friends, Arthur was initially startled by the voice of someone who was nowhere to be found. Despite having the mindset of an adult, Arthur was greatly frightened by who would be later revealed to be Sylvia, a gigantic individual in a dark armor. Knowing that his mother was pregnant, he cannot help but worry about them, until Sylvia reassured the boy that they are fine elsewhere by using his psychic abilities. He breaks down emotionally as he is left alone once again when Sylvia's life came to an end but saved him and finds himself outside again. During his time with Sylvia, Arthur finally had his sense of revenge toward the criminals who ambushed them rise inside him but gets adviced by Sylvia to not let his heart driven by hatred as it will only bring harm to himself and follow the wrong path. Neverthless, after leaving Sylvia, Arthur was still driven to be lethal enough to ambush a group of slavers who captured an elf child. Driven by a strong sense of justice, he hunts them at night and as one of them begs Art to wait, the boy answers him that wouldn't the child they captured have also begged to wait before finished him off.
Upon bringing back Tessia home, to the Kingdom of Elenoir, Arthur remains respectful, now aware that Tessia belongs to the monarchs of a society. Art had initially the decision to leave the kingdom soon after explaining what happened to Tessia to her family, disappointing Tessia for his quick decision to leave. Arthur is challenged by Tessia's grandfather, Virion Eralith, the former king of Elenoir, to many duels in swordsplay, managing to impress him with his unusual prowess to fight him on pair, so much that it the man was willing to make him his successor. 
===Teenage Years ===
However, his spiritual maturity lags due to the "shell" he had around his emotions in his past life, causing him to struggle with personal relationships and emotional responses. Arthur has a sense justice that is in play when his loved ones are threatened. 
His emotional struggles often lead to explosive and excessive reactions, highlighting a vulnerability in his otherwise mature demeanor. Ultimately, Arthur’s return to Dicathen marks his transformation from a cold, detached individual into a more empathetic and clear-headed leader. The death of Sylvie nearly drove him to madness and detachment, along with his failure to triump, mirroring his past life. Nevertheless, with the help of Regis and Caera, he manages to retain his empathy and gradually overcomes his grudge for the Alacryans, shifting his anger towards the true instigators of conflict, Agrona Vritra and Kezess Indrath.
