Raios Antinous

Raios Antinous (ライオス・アンティノス) is a swordman-in-training in the Norlangarth Empire's Independent Master Sword Academy and eldest son of a third Class Noble family.

Appearance
He has a tall and burly body as well as a long, wavy, blonde hair. During his first year, he used the gray uniform of the Sword Academy. In his second year he uses a custom made red uniform.

Alicization Running
He appears in the cafeteria during dinner, sitting next to Humbert Zizek, after Kirito and Eugeo finish their obligations as valets and sit at a table next to the two nobles. They raise their voice and make commentaries to offend them. Eugueo resists, but, even though Kirito managed to contain his outburst, he lost himself in his train of thoughts and couldn't enjoy his dinner.

Days later, they destroy the pots with the plants Kirito was cultivating and laugh in his face, but are dumbstruck, when they see that he gives the plant, in perfect state, to Sortiliena.

Alicization Turning
He has become the head-swordsman in the Academy due to the exams at the beginning of the year. Though, after seeing Kirito giving the mysteriously recovered flowers to Solterina, he tends to avoid approaching Kirito, therefore he waits until Eugeo is alone to bother him. When Eugeo decides to practice in the arena, Raios is already practicing with Humbert there. They start teasing Eugeo, but are shocked, when instead of running away, he decides to face them in a duel. Raios acts as a referee in the duel between Humbert and Eugeo and stops it after Humbert stumbles, declaring it a draw. After the bell rings, telling that it is 6:30, he decides to leave, but he threatens Eugeo before leaving.

Days later, he's visited by Eugeo, who seeks to confront Humbert for ordering his valet, Frenica, to do embarrassing tasks, at his and Humbert's room. They toy with Eugeo by acting as if they weren't doing anything wrong, since how Humbert was treating his valet wasn't against the rules. As Humbert continues asking Frenica do unbearable tasks, they are visited by Ronye and Tieze. The elite-swordsmen play dumb to force the girls to fall into their trap to apply punishment, based on the right that higher nobles held over lower ones, on them and rape them.

He orders Eugeo to stand and watch Humbert and himself rape Ronye and Tieze and, because acting against the upper nobles' right to judge lower class nobles would be considered a crime, Eugeo is rendered powerless to stop them. When Eugeo finally builds up the will power to go against the law and attacks them, Raios evades Eugeo's attack, but the attack connects with Zizek's arm and cuts it off. Raios tells Humbert to calm down and use the ropes which were used to immobilize Ronye and Tieze to stop the bleeding on his arm. He then attacks Eugeo with his sword, trying to execute him for attacking them and hurting Humbert, but is stopped by Kirito. He attacks Kirito with his strongest attack, but, just like Sortiliena did with Uolo, Kirito (who somehow transformed his sword into a two handed one) used Whirl Current to deflect his attack. From the impact, both Raios hands were cut off and he panics at the sight of the bleeding. To stop the bleeding, he needed to use the ropes that Humbert was using to tie his wounds, but he is not able to do so, as that would mean harming Humbert's life without a justifiable reason, which was against the Taboo Index.

At the end, Raios' Fluctlight dies due to struggling between saving his own life and not harming Humbert, even though his avatar still had some life remaining.

Skills
As a high class Noble, he has been trained in the High Norlangarth style (also known as the High Norkia style), the same that Uolo Levanteinn was trained in. He draws power for his sword from his pride as an upper-class nobleman and looking down on those lower ranked than him.

Trivia

 * Like Uolo, his swordsmanship gets stronger when he manages to wound his opponent to the point of making him bleed. It's stated by him that it can improve even further if he kills someone.
