Andrew Gilbert Mills

Agil (エギル) is a merchant in «Sword Art Online». He is a veteran axe-wielder and owns a shop in Algade, the 50th floor of «Aincrad» in SAO. His real name is Andrew Gilbert Mills (アンドリュー・ギルバート・ミルズ) and he runs the shop «Dicey Café» in real life.

Appearance
Agil is of African heritage. He is a massive and bulky bald man with a brown goatee and brown eyes. He also has two earrings on his left ear.

Background
Although African-American by ethnicity, his parents took a liking to Japan, and he opened his coffee shop-bar in Okachimachi at the age of 25. His wife was a customer of the shop. Afterwards, he had been trapped in SAO for two years. When he came back, he expected the shop to have closed long ago but it was saved by his wife's efforts.

Personality
Agil is a friendly and very helpful person who is always looking out for others. He is also someone to rely on such as when he defended the beta testers against Kibaou, giving Kirito a place to stay, and helping players on lower floors. He also can be a leader on the battlefield and will help his comrades and friends no matter what the cost may be.

Aria in the Starless Night
He is first seen defending the beta testers from Kibaou who was saying that they caused the 2000 people to die. He shows Kibaou «Argo's Strategy Guide: First Floor Boss edition» and says that the beta testers were not all to blame as they gave everyone free information where they could find in any NPC shop. In the boss fight he and his party help Kirito and Asuna beat the boss.

He also shows capable leadership during the first boss fight, being able to safely lead his party without any casualties. Agil also spoke out against Kibaou's accusations against the beta testers, noting that Argo's freely distributed guide had information from none other than the "selfish" beta testers themselves.

Sword Art Online
He was introduced as the merchant who Kirito tries to sell the Ragout Rabbit Meat to, until Asuna shows up.

Agil makes his primary store location on the 50th floor's city, «Algade», and has a good relationship with Kirito. His store motto is "We buy cheap and sell cheap", and although the latter part is usually doubted, he in fact uses his income to help players on the lower floor. After Kirito is revealed as the second Unique Skill user, Kirito temporarily lives on the second floor of Agil's shop to avoid public attention.

He later sells his shop and reappears in the 75th floor battle, to aid in the boss fight. Prior to Kirito's rematch with Heathcliff, Kirito thanks Agil for always helping and supporting the mid-level players of the game reach the front lines.



After SAO
After completing SAO, Agil returns to manage his shop, Dicey Cafe. His wife, though never making a true presence to Kirito and co., was able to keep the shop from closing during his two year absence.

As Asuna had not returned after the completion of SAO, Agil tips Kirito about Asuna - showing a screenshot taken in ALfheim Online - thus pressing Kirito to return to the world of VRMMORPGs and save Asuna. He gives Kirito a copy of the game.

Although he does not play ALO during the few days in which Kirito saved Asuna, he plays ALO later as a Gnome Axe-wielder, in which he even played with Kirigaya Suguha, Kirito's sister. His cafe was also used for the celebration of completing SAO and the rescue of Asuna, in which many SAO players appeared, including the Army's leader, Thinker, as well as his wife, Yulier.
