◇ Seras (Minato Kushiki)
Gender: Female (was male in previous life)
Birthdate: 10221/5/18
Age: About 5 billion
Race: Seraph
Ability: "---"
Circuit Quality: "What's a circuit?"
Ability Capacity: Can control all the energy in the world
Attribute: Same as above
The main protagonist of the series. Due to circumstances, she became the alternate personality of Aoi Futaba.
In her previous life, she was a dangerously strong-willed person who changed fate through sheer willpower and murdered people while performing good deeds.
She somehow endured trials that would obliterate a normal person’s soul and became a Seraph.

If she goes all out, she can pretty much do anything. She could even destroy the world or travel to the future with precision to save it, thanks to her foresight—but instead, she chooses to enjoy her vacation leisurely inside Aoi while saving the world at her own pace.
She was made into a female angel for the god Ren’s entertainment—Ren being the CEO of the black-hole-corporate-heaven.
◇ Aoi Futaba

Gender: Male
Birthdate: 10221/5/18
Age: 5
Race: Human
Ability: "Overpowered Overspec"
Circuit Quality: S
Ability Capacity: S
Attribute: Fire
The other main character of the story. Possesses a beautiful, androgynous appearance—since he grew out his hair, he gets mistaken for a girl even more often.
He was born as a remedy to the world-ending crisis brought about by a certain clumsy god. However, he wasn’t strong enough, so Seras was shoved into him to reinforce him.
Originally, his ability was something other than “Overpowered Output,” but it transformed after Seras was merged with him. While Seras secretly handles a lot of the heavy lifting, Aoi’s instincts and senses are truly exceptional.

◇ Sou
Gender: -
Birthdate: -
Age: -
Race: [REDACTED]
Ability: "Flame Manipulation"
Circuit Quality: A
Ability Capacity: A
Attribute: Fire
A wolf-shaped virtual being cloaked in flames.
Once possessed by an evil spirit while in a weakened state, he went berserk, but Aoi purified him, restoring his will. Since then, he has joined the Futaba household to protect Aoi.

Originally, he was strong enough that the elite of the reincarnated world could barely manage to defeat him together. But thanks to the absurdly high-purity energy Seras and Aoi kept feeding him, he kept evolving rapidly.
His ability capacity is slightly lower than Aoi’s, but in pure combat power, he’s superior. Thus, Aoi is under his protection. As for Seras—he instinctively rolls over and shows his belly to that monster.

Aoi and Seras’s father. One of the top fighters in the nation they live in.
He works in anti-virtual-entity defense ⊛ Nоvеlιght ⊛ (Read the full story) and isn’t good at small talk or charm. His ability allows him to greatly enhance physical stats by focusing the power on specific body parts.
When he returned from paternity leave, his coworkers were being considerate of his “rustiness,” but he had grown even stronger thanks to dad energy and wanting to look cool for his kid—much to the horror of said coworkers.

Kouta’s father and Aoi’s grandfather. Retired from frontline anti-virtual-entity duty due to age.

A researcher in anti-virtual studies and the only person who has realized Seras exists within Aoi.

Age: 5
Race: Human
Ability: "Telekinesis"
Circuit Quality: E

A young girl who met Aoi at the park and fell for him, now constantly follows him around. She doesn’t fully understand love yet, so she just gets flustered around him for reasons she doesn’t understand.

◇ Spirits

A useless mid-tier goddess.

Follows the rules on the surface, but otherwise does whatever he likes.
