Li Gan

リ=ガン

Li Gan ("Regan" in the Crunchyroll translation of the anime, also spelled "ReGan") is a Sage of Miral Lake and a dedicated magic researcher. He first appears to discuss the world's magic laws with Shiroe, and later is invited by the enchanter to travel north to Susukino with him. Li Gan appears to be mysterious and enigmatic when he first introduce himself to Shiroe and Akatsuki. He holds great interest in studying the laws and mysteries of magic, and is excited by the meeting of three different kinds of scholars present (himself, an Adventurer, and a member of the Kunie clan). He is easily excited by the chance at gaining new knowledge, no matter how small. He has immense knowledge of the past of Theldesia and is even able to manipulate the technology of the Ancients. While he is rather competent as a combatant in Earthling terms, enough to best a band of middling Earthling knights, he is well aware how pitiful his abilities are compared to an adventurers', and has no problem in admitting that his place is not on the battlefield.
