So as you know, Atro Spiker is Adlet's Teacher. Not much about him has being said apart from him not being a good teacher.
So what are your theories about his identity?
I will post my theory so read at your will and that means Light Novel's spoiler warning:


If you want to share your theories and they are farther in the story from the current episode, please use the spoiler tag.

I don't think Atro Spiker's past is unknown to the public in that verse. If he's that well known of a Kyouma Hunter, he probably has feats about hunting them while being younger.

Also, what do you mean by "kill him"? That was defeating him, not killing him.

I don't think there is any relation with Cargikk here. Cargikk is the strait forward leader who simply like his brethren and care for each of them. He believe in strait forward battle rather than cheesy battle plans involving betrayal and stuff. Why would he take action to train humans to kill his own brethren, that doesn't make sense.

The translation I read said that he had to be killed within one month else Adlet would have to leave so be it an error of translation, or a good translation, lets cast aside the fact that Adlet killed/defeat him since currently, it won't help us get to know his past.
Considering that Mora barely knew about Atro when Rolonia went to train with him, and the other Rokka no Yuusha(genuine or not) haven't heard that much about him, I doubt his past is known in the verse since if we assume that Leura is around the same age of Atro or near the age of his, he should have his name known as a specialist of hunting Kyoumas, since his techniques are focused on killing only Kyoumas. Currently the only two characters who have had contact with him have been Rolonia and Adlet, there has yet to be mentioned someone else who met him.

Well, lets discard the idea of Cargikk being Atro himself but there's something wrong with your argument. Cargikk has killed several of his brethren during his hunts against Dozzu & Tgurneu. Regardless, he is described as someone who goes on full offensive so I doubt he cares about his brethren since why make them go on a suicidal front attack?

Either way, Atro Spiker and his knowledge of Kyouma are quite vast. I wonder if someone trained him or he went on expeditions with other companions. Would love if the author went in detailed and dedicated some of those to Atro's past.

Currently the only two characters who have had contact with him have been Rolonia and Adlet, there has yet to be mentioned someone else who met him.

I'm pretty sure it was mentionned several times that Atro 's training was so harsh that adlet was the only one that managed it, and that every single other person that came as a disciple (not counting rolonia since she was just her for the knowledge part and not to be trained to fight kyouma) was either sent back or ran away. This hints toward the fact that Atro spiker is well known and that quite a good amount of peoples came to him to ask for his teaching. I seriously doubt that he wasn't well known as a kyouma hunter younger to have so many peoples coming at him even though he's in the middle of mountains.

He was said to deeply love his brethren. Having some of his troups killed in battle has nothing to do with it. If it's necessary for the survival of his race, obviously he'll send troop. The fight against the rokka as well as the conclusion of the bet between the kyouma leaders has the whole future of the race as stake. But he isn't going to mess around and waste Kyouma's life on twisted moves and the like.

Judging by the cover of the 6th volume that his being released in july (that's a younger adlet on it), the 6th volume will probably have Adlet's past covered at least partially. If so, we may actually learn more about it. Last time we saw a bit, but that was mainly from Rolonia's POV rather than from Adlet's POV, so the amount of info was limited.
