Personality
As Ryouka says, he is cute, nice, honest but indecisive and naive. Lucas faithfully served the goddess Hami and swear to protect her for all eternity until his last day of life, he also seemed to have some feeling for her. He did not like going to Earth very much because he really felt bad about leaving his home, but the will to protect his dragon, Azure was greater. Lucas is very sensitive and easily gets offended or moved. He has no control over his emotions and always has an exaggerated reaction to every emotion, like falling into tears, being very scared, getting too excited, etc. Lucas does not like to leave his comfort zone, unless this is to protect someone, and unlike Edward, he is pessimistic and does not see much hope in things. He has the strange habit of making promises, and everyone who is close to him, he comes to make some promise. When with Jasmine, he seems to be more relaxed about things and also more shy, which leads people to believe he has a crush on her. Close to Ryouka, he is cheerful and carefree.
