Madra Shenson

Madra Shenson (マドラ・シェンソン) is the runner-up of the previous Demon Sword Tournament. Prior to Anos and Lay's entry, he was considered Dilhade's fastest swordsman.

Appearance
Madra looked beastly in appearance, with his whole body covered in scars.

Personality
Ever since losing against Kurt, he became obsessed with getting stronger, spending the past two decades doing nothing but clearing the Granhelia dungeon's floors.

History
Thirty years ago, Madra went against Kurt in the tournament's finals and lost. His defeat caused him to go into the Granhelia Underground Labyrinth, where even the first floor is said to be challenging, all to get stronger and avenge his loss. He was rumored to have reached the 250th floor and remained there for twenty years.

Demon Sword Tournament Arc
Currently, Madra goes against Lay in the second match of Round 1. Madra offers Lay the option to withdraw since unsheathing Leflecia will turn it into a deathly gale, but Lay nonchalantly turns down the offer. This causes Madra to draw his sword in a lightning-quick move and aim for Lay's neck, but he suddenly finds his sword shattered. As it turns out, Lay drew his sword and then sheathed it faster than Madra or anyone else could've seen. With the destruction of his sword, Madra loses the match.

Abilities

 * Expert Swordsmanship: Madra could be considered an expert with the sword as the runner-up of the previous Demon Sword Tournament. His skills are possibly even better now after spending years at the Granhelia Underground Labyrinth, whose difficulty is even acknowledged by Anos. Yet even with all of his might, his skills still pale in comparison to Lay's.

Equipment

 * Gale Blade Leflecia
