Benjamin Hui Guo Rou
Eldest prince and commander within the Royal Army. A physical colossus who has prepared for the succession war his entire life, embedding his private soldiers in rival households as 'loaned bodyguards'. Treats the contest as a military campaign to be won by intelligence and attrition.
Addendum ch.389His ability inherits the Nen abilities of subordinates who die after pledging themselves to him — every dead soldier makes the prince stronger.
Addendum ch.410Declared Special Martial Law citing a bioweapon conspiracy between Tserriednich and Halkenburg, moved to consolidate all three branches of government at the Justice Bureau, and began the purge of rival princes' guards.
Addendum ch.413Poisoned with the failed bioweapon TSK-17 by Furykov under Queen Unma's coercion; roughly half a day from death. His response: race the clock — martial law, the elimination of the remaining princes, and a plan to merge his Guardian Spirit Beast with his inheritance ability so that he transcends kingship and watches over Kakin as a god.
His 'bodyguards' assigned to other princes are intelligence assets reporting to Balsamilco.
Through the leveled-up Secret Window inherited from Musse, he can review what Musse saw before dying — including that Camilla is a counteractive-type Nen user.
