Michel Collins (ミッシェル＝コーリング) is the former Commander of the Knight Order of the Earlshide Kingdom. He was known as the Sword Saint due to him being unequaled with a sword.

Appearance
Michel, as Shin describes, has the looks of a considerably young man with green eyes and short blonde hair. As for his physique, although he didn’t look macho, he wasn’t thin either; he had a lean but well-built figure.

His appearance differs in the manga; in the manga he has dark hair and eyes instead of blonde hair and green eyes.
