Yuto Nakatani

Skill: Absorption
https://static.tvtropes.org/pmwiki/pub/images/isekai_summoning_rebellion_yuto.jpg
The Hero of the Demons.

The protagonist of the series. After being left for dead and then nearly murdered by his comrades, he awakens his ability to copy the skills of anyone he's in contact with. He leaves the party and joins forces with Melia. This puts him at odds with his classmate in the Holy Valencia Empire as well as the Empire itself.


  • All Your Powers Combined: Yuto has to potential to amass all the Summoned Heroes' skills and use them.
  • Best Served Cold: He wants vengeance on the Empire that summoned his class, and his classmates who tried to abandon and murder him, but even though he can flatten the latter, and with ease, he knows the Empire is too big to take on right away, so he's trying to bide his time and gather his strength until he's good and ready.
  • Big Damn Heroes: He chances upon the scene just before Ryin is cut down by one of his former classmates for the "crime" of daring to defend some helpless, starving children who couldn't possibly be a threat if they tried.
  • Combo Platter Powers: Once he learns the true potential of his "Absorption" skill, he begins accumulating multiple abilities.
  • Dark Is Not Evil: The skill he acquired from Melia "Black Burial" which is capable of manipulating shadows for a variety of purposes. He's also one of the nicest humans you'll find in the setting.
  • Defeating the Undefeatable: As he and Melia are escaping the dungeon, they run across a Corpse Dragon, which has an immortality skill and is known as an army killer. Forced into a fight with it, he struggles to get close enough to use Absorb and steal all its skills and then repeatedly blasts it with its own Breath Weapon until it's Deader than Dead.
  • The Dreaded: How Yuto's Classmates view him after the Battle at Arganum.
  • Good Is Not Nice: He stops his friend Melinda from casting healing magic on a classmate by using his [Absorption] ability while she's in the process, but goes on to heal the classmate himself.
  • Good Is Not Soft: Given a choice, he will not spare any of his so-called classmates who tried to abandon and murder him and are all gung-ho about being murder hobos instead of actual heroes.
  • Hero with Bad Publicity: Becomes this when he sides with the demons.
  • Heroic BSoD: He has an epic breakdown as he's about to be killed "for being a burden" by Onizuka before he hears Melia call out to him and tell him how to fight back.
  • Morph Weapon: By using "Black Burial," he can change the shape of his weapon to suit his needs.
  • The Needless: By using "Magic Conversion," which returns magical energy to the body, he no longer needs to eat or sleep.
  • Perpetual-Motion Monster: By combining his Magic Conversion and Immortality skills.
  • Power Copying: What his Absorption ability true is. It allows him to copy the skill of anyone he's in contact with. The target eventually regains the power to use their skill, but Yuto retains a copy permanently.
  • Shaming the Mob: Which doesn't take. He calls out all his classmates for running around murdering helpless children, but Miyamato repeats the lie that they're savage cannibals, with no evidence and compares them to rabid beasts, at which point the classmates all go "oooh! As expected of Class President!"
  • Spanner in the Works: Every time his evil glory-seeking classmate "heroes" are involved in a heinous plan to genocide the "demon" races, the plot dumps him in the area, and he wrecks it.
  • Springtime for Hitler: He wants to lie low and build up his power before taking on the Empire, but his so-called classmates keep showing up and bumping into him, trying to kill him in their self-righteous "heroics."
  • Stock Light-Novel Hero: Bullied teen from Japan? Check. Has a power considered "trash" but is actually OP when used correctly? Check. Stomps his enemies in no time flat? Check. Has lovely ladies saddle up to him because he's nice to them? Check. Grinds levels in badass like it's going out of style? Check and mate.
  • Took a Level in Badass: When Nakatani meets his classmates again in Arganum he's able to defeat Miyamoto and Onizuka in seconds.

    Melia 

Melia

https://static.tvtropes.org/pmwiki/pub/images/melia.jpg

Daughter of Melfes, the Demon King.


  • Broken Bird: Forced to watch her parents murdered by fanatic empire soldiers and locked up in a cave, tied down to a stone chair, and a crystal spike through her chest, for four hundred years, just for laughs, has given her many, many psychological problems, the least of which is that she has grown accustomed to going without clothing, and has great difficulty showing any emotion except a stony poker face, and by her own admission, her tears have long ago run dry.
  • Casting a Shadow: Her "Black Burial" skill that she has Yuto copy allows her to manipulate shadows.
  • Comically Missing the Point: When she's pushed into a more conservative outfit to infiltrate the human empire, and she complains about it, Ryin points out that her regular outfit would not work. She takes it as "oh, yeah, the official regal outfit of the demon king would give me away, huh?" rather than "Your 'normal' clothes don't fit and you need a new wardrobe!"
  • Fallen Princess: She used to be the crown princess of the Demon Kingdom, but thanks to an Imperial coup, and the usurper's greed, her entire country was wiped out and she was locked up at the bottom of a dungeon for laughs.
  • A Friend in Need: How Yuto sees her.
  • Intimate Marks: The magical seal that keeps her from using her power at its fullest manifests as a tattoo between her abdomen and her crotch. She's somewhat confused when she asks Yuto to examine it and he starts going Please Put Some Clothes On.
  • It's Personal: She hates the Empire with a passion and even seeing the skeletal remains of Imperial Soldiers, in their trademark armor, drives her to Tranquil Fury.
  • Lady and Knight: She's the lady to Yuto's knight.
  • Navel-Deep Neckline: How her outfit would look if it actually fit. As it is, it's amazing she isn't tumbling onto the floor with every step.
  • The Needless: As long as she can gather mana for herself, she does not need to eat or sleep.
  • Really 700 Years Old: She was locked up in that dungeon for 400 years and her age before that is unknown.
  • Shameless Fanservice Girl: She actually hates wearing clothing and would walk around nude if she could. She wears a very, very loose-fitting dress as a favor to Yuto and is only seen complaining when she's pushed by Ryin into a more modest outfit.
  • Tough Leader Façade: She is actually a very sensitive and expressive girl, but she wears a stoic mask to the public.

    Ryin 

Ryin

https://static.tvtropes.org/pmwiki/pub/images/ryin.jpg

Daughter of the King of the Dragon race and Melia's childhood friend.


  • A Friend in Need: On both ends. She and her people were once rescued from certain extinction, hunted by other races for sport, by the demon king. When the demon tribe fell, she took on the job of caring for the refugees.
  • Good Is Not Soft: She won't hesitate to get her hands dirty to protect the children in her care.
  • It's Personal: She wants nothing more than to bring the empire burning to the ground, especially those self-proclaimed "heroes" who showed up and just started summarily murdering helpless children right in front of her.
  • My Greatest Failure: She deeply regrets not being able to rescue the Demon King and Queen from the invading human Empire.
  • Really 700 Years Old: She's at least 400 years old, since she was there at the time the Empire attacked the Demon Kingdom.
  • Roaring Rampage of Revenge: During the attack on Argentum, she attacks the murder-hobo "heroes" who are going around murdering helpless children for giggles, on a flimsy and easily discredited pretense that they're man-eating savages.
  • Shaming the Mob: Which doesn't take. She calls out the so-called "heroes" as Humans Are the Real Monsters for murdering helpless children while cheering and laughing, but the so-called heroes don't care.

     Nina and Nona 
https://static.tvtropes.org/pmwiki/pub/images/21c.jpg
Nii-san, you are strong! Let's play!
Malcom's trump card in his scheme to ambush and murder the summoned "heroes" as Malcom believes they are completely unnecessary and a waste of resources that he'd like to keep for himself instead.
  • Beast Man: They are both half-man and half-wolf.
  • BFS: As seen in the page image, they wield swords larger than they are tall, but with the hilt being near the center of the blade, instead of a handle at the bottom, they're believable.
  • Cute and Psycho: Once they're no longer under Malcom's control and instead working with Yuto, they are energetic and endearing as the children they are, but only Yuto can deal with them because they're also completely insane, violent, and dangerously strong.
  • Scary Teeth: Their teeth are all jagged and pointy, designed for ripping flesh, and they know how to use them to do that. Even biting Yuto in the throat when they met him.
  • Sibling Team: They fight as a matched set and they are identical twins.
  • Stripperific: What little clothing they wear leaves precious little to the imagination.

Summoned Heroes


    In General 
Yuto Nakatani's Classmates.
  • The Chosen Many: They were summoned to help exterminate the demon race.
  • Evil Hero: They're heroes only because the Empire calls them such. In truth, they are nothing more than murder hobos who happily kill anyone and anything in their way for money, fame, glory, and most importantly, sick laughs. It's only when Malcom Salisford puts them on the receiving end of that treatment that they realize that this is hardly a "heroic" thing.
  • Glory Seeker: All they care about is their personal fame and glory. They don't give a damn about others.
  • Hero-Worshipper: They all sing the praises of Miyamoto to a fanatical degree, and take anything he says as gospel, no matter how glaringly wrong it is.
  • Horrible Judge of Character: They think Miyamoto is praise-worthy, the Empire is upright and decent, and the non-human races are Always Chaotic Evil. They're wrong on all counts, but they don't care.
  • Never Hurt an Innocent: Averted. They kill helpless children for laughs under the glaringly false pretext that the children in question are savage cannibals.
  • Never My Fault: Oh it's not their fault that Yuto fled for his life after they abandoned him and left him to die. No. It's him "wandering off on his own without permission."
  • Took a Level in Dumbass: The vast majority of them get easier to manipulate and make poorer and poorer decisions as the chapters progress.
  • What the Hell, Hero?: They frequently get called out on their genocidal ways, but it never registers.
  • Would Hurt a Child: After the dungeon, their first "heroic" act is to attack a broken down old castle and happily going around murdering helpless children, trying to make a sick game out of who could kill the most.
  • Villainous BSoD: When Yuto shows up, beats up Miyamoto and Onizuka in seconds, and they have no choice but to flee with their tails between their legs, they spend a few days in terror, with one of them even whining about having her arm chopped off, even though Yuto grew it back.

    Naoki Miyamoto 
Skill: Heroic Strength
https://static.tvtropes.org/pmwiki/pub/images/im_the_only_one_with_unfavorable_skills_isekai_summoning_rebellion_miyamoto.jpg

  • Assumed Win: Whenever he's up against anyone, he always presumes the fight's already won.
  • Attention Whore: He has to be in the spotlight as "The Hero" as much as possible.
  • Believing Their Own Lies: He tells himself and anyone that will listen that he's a genuine hero and Yuto is a traitor to humanity for "going off without permission" when he not only abandoned Yuto in a monster-filled dungeon, but encouraged Onizuka to go kill him "for experience points":
    • so adept at self-delusion that he constantly believes himself to be superior Yuto every time they meet, despite the opposite being proven true repeatedly.
    • thinking he was an almightily loved presence amongst his class, only for none of them helping him fight against the rogue Onizuka.
    • acting as if he can do no wrong due to his being chosen as a hero. When all he's proven is that he sucks as both a leader and a samaritan time after time.
  • Bitch in Sheep's Clothing: He pretends to be a decent guy, but he's a sadistic murder hobo, nothing more.
  • Black-and-White Insanity: Flatter him by calling him a hero, and he will think you're goodness personified. Tell him the truth, that he's a sadistic murder-hobo, and he will see you as "a disease" and he has to kill you at all costs.
  • Blaming the Victim: He blames Yuto "being a useless burden" for both abandoning him and letting Onizuka try to kill him.
  • Broken Ace: Prior to being transported to this new world, he was the number one student. In the new world, his "Hero's Strength" skill makes him the "strongest" of the so-called heroes of the Empire. But he's no hero at all. He's cowardly, sadistic, entitled, and arrogant, murdering the weak and helpless for laughs and telling himself it's "Justice" then making himself believe it.
  • Bullying a Dragon: He just can't get it through his head that Yuto is stronger than him and keeps going out of his way to try and torment the latter.
  • Chick Magnet: As a handsome "class president" the ladies of his class, and some of the guys, flock to him like mindless groupies.
  • Deconstructed Character Archetype: What happens when you get a teen who charmed his way into being the Class President, to the point that basically the entire school body near fanatically sings his praises, drag him and his class to a new world, proclaim he's a hero, give him super-powers and set him loose? You get a genocidal asshat who needs to near-constantly be praised, or he's going to go on a murder frenzy.
  • Dirty Coward: He loves to tout himself as a hero and boss people around, calling them "selfish" if they don't serve his self-righteous delusions of heroism, but whenever he's in a situation where he's facing a legitimate threat, he runs, hides, or most often, just freezes up and stares on, doing nothing until it's all over.
  • Drunk On Power: His "hero's strength" skill went straight to his head, making him think he's invincible and infallible. He's wrong, but no matter how he gets beat down, he never sobers up.
  • Evil Hero: The empire calls him a hero and he has the "Hero's strength" skill, but he's nothing more than an arrogant, cowardly, and entitled mass-murderer.
  • Fake Ultimate Hero: He genuinely believes he's humanity's champion, but he's really just an over-glorified chump.
  • The Fool: He always self-righteously rushes into every situation he finds himself in, without doing any research and just presumes he's correct, factually and morally. He never is, and it always turns around to bite him.
  • For Great Justice: He yells out that his actions are for "Justice" no matter how heinous they are, and then makes himself believe it.
  • Glory Hound: Anything that promises to bring him fame will cause him to immediately rush to it, regardless of the costs or risks, and he will happily sacrifice all his groupie classmates to get at it.
  • Green-Eyed Monster: He's always been jealous of Yuto's relationship with Minase, which is another reason he decided to abandon Yuto and encourages Onizuka to kill him.
  • Heroes Prefer Swords: He prefers a sword and he's only a "hero" because the Empire tells him he is.
  • Heroic Wannabe: He wants to be hailed as "Humanity's hero" but he's no hero at all.
  • Insane Troll Logic: He sees the demon children in a run-down castle, starving, with no evidence of human remains, and the children are clearly too weak to deal with a normal human, let alone so-called "heroes," yet he tells himself and anyone who will listen that they are a cannibalistic threat to humans that have to be exterminated.
  • I Reject Your Reality: He can clearly see that the "demon" children he wanted to kill could not possibly be a threat as they were weak, helpless, scared, in shabby clothing, and in a run-down castle with no supplies, but "they are cannibals who eat people, and have to die!"
  • It's All About Me: The only person who is a person to him is himself. His goals, wants, and needs are all that matters.
  • Knight Templar: Empirical evidence doesn't matter. The "demons" are evil, and the humans are "good." The former must be killed to protect the latter, no exceptions. Yuto is a "traitor" for thinking differently, and for daring to defend himself after Onizuka tried to kill him, repeatedly.
  • Lack of Empathy: He doesn't care about anyone but himself.
  • Light Is Not Good: He wields light-based attacks and magics, and is a self-righteous twit who murders helpless children for laughs.
  • Moral Myopia: He constantly proclaims Yuto is a coward because the latter wouldn't simply stick around and let himself be murdered, not to mention "hiding his strength" when he learned what his [Absorption] power could actually do, but Miyamoto is a guy who will happily abandon team-mates, let thugs like Onizuka murder them, and slices helpless children down for shits, giggles, and easy glory, fleeing in the face of a legitimate threat.
    • If you don't do things his way 24/7, you're the one who's being "selfish."
  • Moral Sociopathy: He honestly believes his actions are genuinely heroic, even though he's arrogant, cowardly, entitled, and murderous, abandoning allies the instant they no longer serve his agency, murdering helpless children on an easily disprovable lie that they're dangerous cannibals, doing absolutely nothing when the entire class is lured into a trap by Malcom and enslaved beast-men are trying to murder him and his classmates, until after Malcom is taken care of and the beast-men are no longer a threat, at which point he tries to kill them, and decrying everyone else as "selfish" when things aren't going his way.
  • My Way or the Highway: Don't do things his way? Be prepared to run far and fast because he will try to strike you down, and call you the "traitor" if you escape.
  • Nice Guy: Not at all.
  • Psychological Projection: He loves to blame others, especially Yuto, for having his flaws while thinking himself innocent of them. It's so prevalent Yuto doesn't even bother trying to retort.
    • He berates Yuto for "selfishly" going out of the way to take everyone else's attention away from him. Fact is, Yuto doesn't care about gathering attention to himself and is just doing his own thing. Miyamoto is the one who selfishly demands everyone's attention whenever possible.
    • Naoki cites Nakatani as a "hypocrite" for caring about the demons he and his slacker sect had cruelly slaughtered. All while completely ignoring just how unheroic he and his own bootlickers are in actual practice.
    • He always insults Yuto's [Absorption] skill as cowardly, because of its Power Copying capacity. Miyamoto's the coward who relies entirely on his skill to boss people around, abandons allies, and flees any battle that isn't going his way, not to mention calls it "Justice" when he's going around murdering children who can't possibly be a threat nor fight back.
  • Punched Across the Room: After a lengthily rant about how superior he is to the one who he calls stubborn and/or trash for leaving the group. In the next split second, Miyamoto gets belted across the grand hall of a abattoir he and his cult minded flunkies made of the helpless demon orphans.
  • School Idol: The vast majority of the class near fanatically worships his "greatness" as the class president.
  • The Sociopath: He ticks off the checklist. Overblown view of his importance. Refusal to admit fault with his actions. Near constant need for adulation and "entertainment." Completely unable to sympathize with others, but can fake it convincingly to manipulate them.
  • This Cannot Be!: The sheer look of empty minded disbelief on his face as he's sent flying through the air by one whom he originally mocked says it all.
  • Soft-Spoken Sadist: In a Just Between You and Me way. When Onizuka gets the "brilliant" idea to murder the "cursed" Yuto, he spends just a few moments whispering insults and demoralizing statements in Yuto's ear and then goes to his class saying "I was just giving my unfortunate friend some parting words."
  • Wrong Assumption: He presumed Yuto died when he "wandered off" in the dungeon. He's surprised when they meet again and he gets stomped.

    Onizuka 
Skill: Ogre God
https://static.tvtropes.org/pmwiki/pub/images/im_the_only_one_with_unfavorable_skills_isekai_summoning_rebellion_onizuka.jpg

  • Axe-Crazy: He goes into murderous rampages with ridiculous ease. Chapter 19 had him straight up murder three of his fellow "heroes" when one of them called him out on his mindless rampages, crushing a girl's face with a single punch and then going after two others as "small fries." He would have murdered Minase too, but he was stopped by two sword-wielding women who are dangerous even without skills, and flees into the wilderness.
  • Assumed Win: Every time he goes after Yuto, or into any fight, he presumes he's already the victor and can easily kill the latter. Constantly getting stomped never registers.
  • The Bully: He beats up, terrorizes, and threatens to kill anyone in the class that annoys him.
  • Bullying a Dragon: Yuto is way, way stronger than he is, yet he keeps going out of his way to kill the latter.
  • Circular Reasoning: He has to kill Yuto for humiliating him, but the reason Yuto beat him down is that he attacked and tried to kill Yuto first.
  • Drunk On Power: His Ogre God skill went straight to his head and made him think he's invincible. Repeated beatdowns fail to sober him up.
  • Entertainingly Wrong: When Yuto managed to fight him off the first time, Onizuka cries out "you were hiding your strength?!" In truth, Yuto didn't know what he was doing and said bully had just had his skill nullified while Nakatani activated it.
  • Hair-Trigger Temper: He flies into rages with ridiculous ease. Miyamoto was only able to talk him down once, by focusing his hate on Yuto, who wasn't present, but this never works again.
  • Hot-Blooded: He is very gung-ho about going into fights and attacks first, thinks never.
  • It's All About Me: He is the "strongest hero" and he will murder anyone who says different.
  • Laser-Guided Karma: After murdering three of his fellow heroes, he is now hunted with a bounty on his head as he did to Yuto back in chapter 1.
  • It's Personal: He is humiliated at constantly losing to Yuto, so he must "avenge" himself by killing the latter.
  • My God, What Have I Done?: Subverted. The first time he actually manages to kill a fellow-classmate, it was an accident, as he was just using a regular punch but the poor girl's head exploded like a watermelon. He's briefly horrified as a result, but then turns to other classmates and starts punching holes in them, thinking he's stealing their skills. He almost grabbed Minase by the head to try and steal her skill until he was driven off by two powerful swords-women and almost immediately went on the run, with the Emperor willing to consider asking Yuto for help!
  • The Sociopath: He ticks off the entire checklist. Perpetual rage at being thwarted or proven wrong? Check. Lack of Empathy? Check. Overblown ego? Check. Incapable of accepting responsibility? Check and Mate.
  • Suicidal Overconfidence: He thinks his Ogre God skill can carry him through any and every fight. He's often wrong.
  • Super-Strength: The power Orge God gave him.
  • Surrounded by Idiots: He honestly believes the rest of the "heroes" are holding him back from the glory and recognition that should rightly be his.
  • Too Dumb to Live: While in an audience with Malcom Salisford, he picks a fight with the aristocrat's top bodyguard, expecting an easy victory, despite the beast-man being twice his size and clearly having decades of combat experience. Malcom commands the beast-man to teach him a lesson. Onizuka learns the hard way that it would have been disgustingly easy for the latter to kill him, and is in real bad shape until Minase heals him.

    Akane 
Skill: Observation
https://static.tvtropes.org/pmwiki/pub/images/im_the_only_one_with_unfavorable_skills_isekai_summoning_rebellion_akane.jpg

  • Awesome by Analysis: Her special skill allows her to appraise the skills of others, and seeing Yuto having "countless" skills scared her.
  • Manipulative Bitch: She's one of the most influential of the "heroes" among the class by manipulating them to do as she wishes.
  • Obfuscating Stupidity: She pretends to be "helpless" so Miyamoto overlooks her and her skills.

    Minase 
https://static.tvtropes.org/pmwiki/pub/images/im_the_only_one_with_unfavorable_skills_isekai_summoning_rebellion_minase.jpg

  • Healing Hands: Her skill is a powerful healing magic.
  • Only Sane Man: She's the only one in the class that really wonders if the "demons" actually are cannibals or not. The rest just happily go with the ridiculous pretext so they can be all "heroic" murder hobos.
  • Selective Obliviousness: She's seen the class attack helpless children and Miyamoto loudly decry Yuto while trying to murder the latter, calling him "a disease" and she still sticks by the class.
  • Support Party Member: She can't fight directly, but her healing ability does help the class recover, even being strong enough to grow back limbs.

    Bud 
Skill: ???

  • Dirty Coward: When after Yuto singlehandedly beat Miyamoto's JarkAss,
  • Miles Gloriosus: Shortly after Yuto was left to die and abandoned the group after Onizuka tried to straight up murder him, getting a beat-down instead, Bud brags to another classmate that he could have beaten Yuto easily, despite being much weaker than Onizuka.
  • Right for the Wrong Reasons: Ironically, he would have had better chances beating up Yuto than Onizuka, as he doesn't have a super-strength skill that Yuto can absorb. Onizuka got beat by having his skill stolen and used against him.

    Babba 
Skill: ???

  • No Good Deed Goes Unpunished: He tries to help Yuto, the sword sisters, and the demon king protect the rest of the class from the enslaved beast-men only to wind up with the top of his bald head sliced off at the mouth, from behind.
  • Off with His Head!: The top of his head, from the mouth off, are sliced off by an enslaved beast-man under Malcom's control.

Holy Valencia Empire


    In General 
  • Aristocrats Are Evil: Every last one of the aristocrats and royals to date is entirely a self-serving and malicious jerk who will stomp anyone and everyone in pursuit of his agenda.
  • Bad Boss: Being an imperial citizen, knight, or servant in an unenviable position as they all get routinely abused and abandoned at the slightest inconvenience, real or imagined.
  • Blaming the Victim: They love to hold their victims accountable for the fact that the victims are targets of repeated atrocity.
  • Empire with a Dark Secret: They summon Yuto's class and proclaim themselves the victims of a genocidal threat of cannibalistic demons. Truth is that the empire is run by genocidal human supremacists who over 400 years ago betrayed allies and launched wars of extermination for power and territory.
  • Feeling Oppressed by Their Existence: They are so human supremacist that they feel "oppressed" by any other race, even tasking Malcom Salisford with condemning all the beast-men in his territory to death and are enraged to find that he enslaved and used them as pawns, warriors, meat-shields, and assassins instead.
  • Evil Gloating: Every last one of them with any power and authority loves to boast about his self-perceived superiority and gloat when he thinks the target of his sadism is helpless before him.
  • Greater-Scope Villain: Yuto frequently gets into conflict with his former fellow classmates, and the occasional arc villain, but the empire as a whole is the organization that makes the overarching plot's conflict happen.
  • Humans Are the Real Monsters: They betrayed and destroyed the Demon Kingdom, killed the King, imprisoned Melia, then proceeded to kill and enslave the people. Afterward, they declare Demons to be cannibalistic barbarians that prey on humans to justify wiping out the survivors.
  • Nice Job Fixing It, Villain: By sending their so-called "heroes" into the dungeon where Melia is held captive, and trying to abandon Yuto to die, they brought the two together, empowering both.
  • Stupid Evil: Spending all those resources to summon a bunch of borderline sociopathic teens, labelling them as "heroes" and then just letting them loose in a dungeon as a test of strength?
  • The Team Benefactor: They finance the activities of the so-called "heroes" that were once Yuto's classmates.

    Chancellor Dennis 
https://static.tvtropes.org/pmwiki/pub/images/im_the_only_one_with_unfavorable_skills_isekai_summoning_rebellion_dennis.jpg
  • Even Evil Has Standards: He condemns Malcom Salisford for slapping the beast-men in his territory with slavery magic and trying to murder the "heroes."
  • High-Class Glass: He wears a monocle to highlight his high rank as an imperial minister.

    Minister Malcolm Salisford 
https://static.tvtropes.org/pmwiki/pub/images/im_the_only_one_with_unfavorable_skills_isekai_summoning_rebellion_malcolm_salisford.jpg

The Finance Minister and next head of the Salisford Family.


  • Condescending Compassion: He expresses "sympathy" towards the self-proclaimed heroes coming back from the former Demon capital with their tails between their legs, but his words drip with contempt.
  • Ear Ache: When he traps the "heroes" in an arena and uses an anti-skill barrier, he makes the mistake of insulting Yuto's Death Glare. A pebble at high speeds catches him in the ear.
  • Hated by All: Even the emperor hates him, but turned a blind eye to his despicable acts, since he's the finance minister, until he tried to murder the "heroes". At that point his entire bloodline was sentenced to execution.
  • Underestimating Badassery: He presumed the same Skill Negating barrier that resulted in the death of the last Imperial "Hero" would work just as well at rendering the current batch helpless. He didn't take into account it has a couple of flaws that could be exploited. Not only does the barrier have no effect on passive skills, but it can be reprogrammed while active, getting turned on him.
  • Villain Has a Point: He is correct that summoning the "heroes" in the first place is a waste of resources, as the "demons" left alive are all helpless, starving children, and the resources needed to train an entire classroom of teenagers, regardless of alignment, is just overkill, at best. Malcolm's plan to use enslaved beast-men would have been far more cost-effective, and just plain effective in general.

    Commander Sieg 
https://static.tvtropes.org/pmwiki/pub/images/im_the_only_one_with_unfavorable_skills_isekai_summoning_rebellion_commander_sieg.png

  • Professional Butt-Kisser: Which he gets called out on. When Minase's healing magic was having a hard time healing Yuto, he called the boy "cursed" and recommended abandoning him to die. The moment Yuto turned the tables on Onizaku, he shamelessly goes and tries to flatter Yuto. Yuto calls him "creepy" to his face, like he called Yuto's Tears of Fear "creepy" just moments before.
