Astea

Astea is the older sister of the protagonist Arael and the holder of the exceptionally rare job class known as 'Empress.' Driven by a promise she made with her younger brother, she left home and single-handedly built a sprawling empire, with the goal of creating a society where even those without jobs are treated with dignity. Her affection for her brother goes far beyond ordinary sibling love—she harbors a desire to marry him. She is recognized by her distinctive speech pattern ending in '～なのだ,' and she continuously dispatches agents to track down her brother's whereabouts.
