Shin Wolford/Relationships

Shin has met and befriended many people, often those who possess great power and influence, thanks to his grandparents' connections.

Family
Although they are not his blood relatives, Shin cares deeply for the people who raised him, as he truly considers them family.

Merlin Wolford
Shin thinks highly of Merlin and sees him as his own grandfather. He acknowledges Merlin as a powerful and skilled magician, from whom he can learn much from. Shin is very grateful towards Merlin for taking him in and raising him.

Melinda Bowen
Shin thinks of Melinda as his beloved grandmother. He respects her knowledge of Enchantment Magic, but is somewhat afraid of incurring her wrath. He tends to hide his inventions from her as she doesn't like it when he creates something weird. Unfortunately, no matter what he tries, Shin always seems to get yelled at by her for his magic or inventions. He does start ignoring her later on this subject, since whatever she's saying become pointless.

Sizilien von Claude
Sicily is Shin's fiancée. Shin was smitten the first time he laid his eyes on her. He always feels at ease when he's with her, especially since they got engaged. He also seems to enjoy teasing Sicily whenever the opportunity presents itself. In serious situations Shin's calm demeanor vanishes when Sicily is in danger willing to rescue her no matter the situation. Shin himself is also scared of her if he gets too close or does something perverted. On their shared 16th birthday, Shin and Sicily sleep together for the first time (ch. 55 in the manga).

Ultimate Magic Research Society
Shin is good friends with all the other members of the Ultimate Magic Research Society.

August von Earlshide
Shin sees August as a cousin, leading him to act very informally with the prince. Shin considers Aug his best friend. August tends to tease Shin on multiple occasions; being a primary source of headaches for Shin with receiving titles and giving public speeches. They share a close bond as Aug tends to console information to Shin.

Michel Collins
Shin knows Michel as his uncle and martial arts instructor. Michel was very impressed with Shin's tenacity in learning the basics and even more impressed with his grasp of the more advanced techniques.

Diseum von Earlshide
Shin sees the king of Earlshide as his uncle, before and after discovering his position, and refers to him as Uncle Dis.

Siegfried Marquez
Shin thinks of Sieg as an older brother figure. He is also a little jealous of Shin's magic ability being his senior.

Christina Hayden
Shin thinks of Chris as an older sister figure. She is also a little jealous of Shin's combat prowess being his senior.

Kurt Ritzburg
Kurt flaunts his noble status at the academy. He was also constantly harassing Sicily and obsessed in having her as his fiancee. Shin defends and protects Sicily from Kurt. Kurt hates Shin because he didn't get into S-class but Shin did and the fact that Shin is interfering with his goals. When Kurt turned into a devil, Shin stopped him by killing him. Upon his death, Shin is hurt by the fact he had no choice but to kill him.

Oliver Schtrom
Shin feels an amount of enmity for Schtrom for turning one of his schoolmates into a devil. He sees Schtrom as a force of pure evil that must be destroyed.
