Wendelin von Benno Baumeister
Wendelin became Alfred's pupil after sensing Well's magical talent. As he desired to have a disciple who he can pass his magical knowledge onto, Bell became the one he was looking for. Alfred was very happy to have met Wendelin. He was very amazed by Wendelin's magic capacity even stating that he hasn't yet reached his limit despite Bell being so young. Alfred taught Bell all kinds of magic believing that Bell would one day surpass him. After completing Well's magic training, there was one thing he wanted Well to do: to help him pass onto the afterlife peacefully before becoming a zombie. Alfred taught Bell "Holy" so Bell could purge him to prevent him from losing all consciousness and reason and attacking people on instinct. In his final moments, Alfred said that he was satisfied and wanted Well to become a great magician by working hard without being conceited. He left instructions in the magic bag he gave Wend telling him how to take ownership of his estate and to change the magic golems there to recongnize Wend as their new master. Even though Wend will have other teachers, Alfred will be the only one he will recognize as his true master.
