Hermann von Benno Baumeister

Hermann von Benno Baumeister is one of the main supporting characters in "Hachinan tte, Sore wa Nai Deshou!". He is Wendelin von Benno Baumeister's second oldest brother and the 2nd son of  and Johanna von Benno Baumeister. After Kurt's death he becomes the Lord of the Baumeister Knight Territory.

Appearance
Like his other brothers (except Kurt), he has brown hair and brown eyes. He basically looks like an older Wendelin but with a muscular build.

Personality
Like all 2nd sons in this Kingdom, Hermann was trained very well to read, write & accounting. He is more open minded and a well rounded figure, (more like a jack-of-all-trades tool man). Thus he was well liked and more popular with the Baumeister populace than Kurt ever was. Nonetheless, his kind hearted and caring nature made him an easy pushover by his wife and thus became famous in the kingdom as the first knight to not take a concubine.

Background
He is the second oldest son and despises that he is kept around as a spare for Kurt. He wanted to leave the territory just like his younger brothers

Plot
He was dispatched by his father to marry into the branch family. Once he married into the family he was still treated poorly till he stood up to the main family. He told them they needed to pay their bill for the Honey Liquor that they had purchased. Kurt was upset with this so he told Kurt they would not supply anymore liquor till the bill is satisfied. Artur agreed to pay the bill and after this his wife started treating him like a real husband.

When Wend returned to the territory to purify the undead Wend stayed at their mansion instead of the main family's mansion. This could be considered as not giving the main family face.

After Kurt had become an undead and a grudge that was purified by the priests of the Royal Capitol, Artur was forced into retirement and Hermann assumed the head of the Baumeister Knight Territory. The peerage would be raised to a Baronet in the future after everything dies down. Wend will take over the adjacent Savage lands for development and become his Earldom. Due to Wend developing the Savage lands and helping develop the Baumeister Knight Territory, the territory would see an influx of refugees moving there.

Abilities
He is shown to have normal human mana

Skills
He is the physically gifted one out of the brothers; he is the top out of all of them in swordsmanship.

Wendelin von Benno Baumeister
He never had a good relationship with Wend when he was a child due to the age difference. Once Wend returns to the territory their relationship improves and steadily improves through the novel.

Marlene Baumeister
She was an arranged marriage after Kurt had his first son. The branch family and his wife kept him at a distance as they suspected the marriage was an attempt to take over the branch family. This ended when he stood up to the main family and demanded they pay their bills. He truly loves his wife, but like all men in the branch family he is dominated by her.

Leon
He is the first born and eldest son. He is the heir to the original the Baumeister Knight Territory(Baronet).

Klara Baumeister
She is his second child and oldest daughter
