The calculating and ruthless Major General of the Japanese Imperial Demon Army who views Akari purely as a potential weapon to be exploited. Cold, ambitious, and willing to sacrifice anything for victory against the vampires, he constantly pressures Guren to either break Akari into a controllable asset or eliminate her. He represents the constant external threat hanging over Akari's head—the voice reminding everyone she's expendable. His clinical interest in her power makes every interaction feel like a dissection.

Lieutenant Colonel of the Moon Demon Company and wielder of the cursed demon blade Mahiru-no-Yo. Hardened, pragmatic, and carrying the weight of countless deaths on his shoulders, Guren sees too much of himself in Akari's struggle. He's torn between his duty to eliminate threats and his compulsion to save someone he recognizes as a kindred spirit. His training methods are brutal but protective, pushing Akari to her limits while secretly shielding her from Kureto's machinations. The intimacy of their isolated sessions creates a dangerous tension—he knows getting close to her is a mistake, but he can't seem to stop.

A young woman branded as a monster after her cursed demon weapon massacred her own squad during her first mission. Desperate, isolated, and terrified of her own power, she oscillates between defiance and vulnerability. Beneath her fear lies fierce determination—she refuses to die as a failed experiment. Her connection to her demon is unstable and agonizing, leaving her physically and emotionally raw. She's drawn to Guren's strength and the dangerous understanding in his eyes, someone who knows what it's like to be consumed by darkness.
