King Helmut

''King Helmut is one of the male Tetartagonist in "Hachinan tte, Sore wa Nai Deshou!" He is the 37th King of the Helmut Kingdom. In the future he will become related to Wendelin von Benno Baumeister by two of his grandchildren marrying Wend's children with Wend's daughter becoming the future Queen.''

Appearance
I could see an approximately 40-year old splendid middle-aged man with a noble strong face floating a smile. As expected, it was a cliched royal family consisting of many beautiful women and handsome men, it seems. His Majesty as well, most likely was quite popular with the women in his early days.

Personality
The force of personality displayed by His Majesty was admired by all.

Background
He is the 37th King of the Helmut Kingdom and was childhood friends with Klimt Kristoff von Armstrong.

Plot
From the very beginning once he finds out that Wendelin von Benno Baumeister is a powerful magician that can develop the Savage lands, him and his minsters start working towards Wend taking over the Baumeister Knight Territory (completely ignoring the boy's decision to live as an adventure.) He makes sure Wend is richly rewarded for his accomplishments so he will have the assets to develop the territory. He and his minster have been waiting for someone like Wend to get this done, as all previous Baumeister's didn't have the intelligence nor skill to accomplish this. Even though this is his wish, he does not force Artur von Benno Baumeister to make Wend the heir as he knows Kurt von Benno Baumeister is an idiot and he will try to do something to Wend and this will give him to reason to force the change. This is also one of the reasons he was made a separate noble from his family and possibly why his brothers noble ranks have advanced.

Later after Wend starts to have children, in order to tie the Royal family together with Wend's family. Friedrich von Benno Baumeister will marry the daughter of the crown princess and Anna von Benno Baumeister will marry the Crown prince's son and become the future Queen.

Abilities
He has normal human mana.

Skills
He is an excellent ruler who knows how to navigate all the noble houses to get what he wants done. He also knows how far he can push things before it could backfire. This is reinforced in Interlude 18 when Burkhart surmises that both the King and Finance Minister Rückner know that if they do something to upset Wend he will just leave the Kingdom and he would probably go to the Urquhart Holy Empire.

Warren
He is the personal guard to the king and King Helmut trusts him fully.

Wendelin von Benno Baumeister
From the very first time that they meet, King Helmut considers him to be a valuable asset to the Kingdom and pushes him to do things that benefits the Kingdom and richly rewards him for these deeds. After that first meeting the King and his ministers made plans to have Wend take over the Savage Lands by finding a way to remove Kurt von Benno Baumeister. He asked Amadeus Freitak von Bleichröder to let Wend and his group stay in the capitol, instead of them returning to school so he can keep him close by. He has Friedrich von Benno Baumeister marry the Crown Prince's daughter and the Crown Prince's eldest son(future King) marry Anna von Benno Baumeister, making her the future Queen. There might be an ulterior motive for this since all Wend's children are born magicians. He might be thinking that by having Wend's children marry his grandchildren his future relatives will also be magicians and strengthen the Royal Family.

Klimt Kristoff von Armstrong
When they were children they played together, since Armstrong was from a family with strong loyalty to the Kingdom and Crown. When Armstrong was going to become an adventurer and explore the world, King Helmut was jealous as he would never be allowed to do something like that(not hateful jealousy, jealous that he couldn't go with him). Once Armstrong retired as an Adventurer Helmut appoints him as the Royal Head Magician and Helmut fully trusts him. When he doesn't have anything for Armstrong to do, he lets him do as he likes. Just like how Burkhart Ringstat is with Amadeus Freitak von Bleichröder, Helmut gives Armstrong his thoughts on matters and lets Armstrong have free rein to complete the task as he sees fit.

Trivia

 * As a minor bit of karma-tic justice, Helmut ceded the right to bestow four nobles titles, 3 knight and one Baron, to Wen; whom was smugly happy to finally get back at the King for constantly detouring his life plan to be an adventurer with the constant noble promotions.
 * He had already told Armstrong what to do once the problem with Kurt was settled. This included how the kingdom will judge Kurt, the forced retirement of Artur. the raising of Wend's brothers peerage and giving Wend the Savage Lands and raising his peerage to an Earl.
 * He knows all of Wend's party members by name even though the only one he met previously was Elise.
