Argus Panoptes

"Ah, you forced me to reveal my eyes to the sun. How dare you? These eyes of mine aren't some mere spheres you can scoff them. They are delicate emeralds that require much care and treatment to be kept at top shape. You wouldn't understand. Your eyes are a mere farce."

- Argus displaying disgust at exposing his eyes to sunlight Argus Panoptes (アーガス パノプテス, Aagasu Panoputesu) is the renown 100-Eyed Monster (百眼化け物, Hyakugan Bakemono), the Mage who created the Mystic Eyes, said to possess 100 different eyes, when in reality, he only possessed 50 Eye Magic that became the Mystic Eyes. During his defeat and death, Argus spread his Mystic Eyes, which manifested in newly born individuals at random points in time, going through constant cycles of appearing and disappearing each time a user died, and a new one was born. Argus specifically planned his return via a Mystic Eyes magic, "Eyes of Revival", which reincarnated him in a new body, allowing him to return centuries later in the body of a woman.

Upon adjusting to her new body, such as training in the art of swordsmanship to better adapt to losing her remaining 49 Mystic Eyes. Currently, Argus is on a personal crusade to retrieve all of her Mystic Eyes from the current owners, while maintaining a well-recieved reputation of a bounty hunter, keeping her true identity as the feared Eye Mage, Argus Panoptes, a secret. She goes under the simple alias of the Warrior Maid (武者メイド, Musha Meido), a "hero" who saves people, expecting no money in return, only hospitality of equal proportions.
