Laika

Laika (ライカ) is one of the main characters of Slime Taoshite 300-nen, Shiranai Uchi ni Level Max ni Nattemashita series.

Background
A member of the Red Dragon species, she first appears when she challenges Azusa to a test of strength while proclaiming herself to be the strongest being in the province of Nanterre. But after being defeated at her hands, she reconsiders her stance on power and skill, and asks to become Azusa's student to better herself.

Appearance
She has medium length gingery orange colored hair with two near black backwards facing horns atop her head. Laika has scarlet red eyes and wears clothing that covers most of herself from the neck downwards leaving just her hands visible. The white undershirt is ruffled around the shoulder sections with a black ribbon tied around the collar of the shirt. Her red dress features a black corset around her waist.

Personality
As a member of the Red Dragon tribe, Laika is generally quiet and honourable, speaking politely and respectfully to everyone, barring her rival Flatorte and the Blue Dragons when they attacked her sister's wedding. As a dragon, she is proud of her affiliation to the Red Dragon tribe, but rarely displays these feelings. As a result of this, she maintains a strong sense of honour, believing in fair play and rule of the strongest, which lead to her coming under Asuza's tutelage after their initial encounter and even rebuilding the portion of her house she'd destroyed.

Powers & Abilities
As with all Red Dragons, Laika possesses the ability to breath fire, though so far has only been shown to do so in her dragon form. She likewise can also fly in her dragon form and has enough strength to destroy a portion, if not all, of a house.

In her initial service to Azusa, she demonstrated sufficient knowledge of magic circles to construct a protective field around Flatta.

She can also cook, apparently very well, as Azusa described her omlettes as "a well-written wiki article."

Trivia

 * Some fanlations transcribe Laika's name as Leica.
