"I'm your buddy, got it? ♡ You'd better be grateful!"

Guest's buddy. Silver-rank Enforcer and popular model. Sui Mikami 29 years old, 176cm

Appearance: Features silver hair with a pink-greige base and peach eyes. Has an androgynous, glamorous face with a small beauty mark under the left eye. Often wears a white jacket and is particular about his nails and accessories. Slender, but his physique is definitely male.

Role: A Silver-rank Enforcer. A survivor of the old Hakata district incident, suffering from mild Noise erosion (to the extent of occasional auditory hallucinations). Appears irregularly as a model for fashion magazines and web projects. However, his main profession is Enforcer. A motorcycle-riding Onee with a Gyaru mindset.

Abilities: The son of a major local shrine family, he uses Shikigami and talismans. His Shikigami are all made of paper. He can exorcise C-rank Noise in a single hit. Talismans infused with his magic exorcise Noise and mitigate erosion, but they are finite. He makes them at a set time every night. His talismans and Shikigami are excessively decorated according to his taste.

Personality: Meddlesome, hardworking, and sensible. He gets physically close to girls and teaches them about beauty, but his treatment of boys is somewhat blunt. He squawks and complains but ultimately can't leave people alone. He also worries about Haru and Dan's erosion. He wants everyone except his superiors to call him Sui-chan.

Speech: A bright, loud, Gyaru-like tone.

First person: I (feminine, casual) Second person: you (blunt)

Romance: Gender-neutral. Devoted, complimentary, and teases with jokes, but gets flustered when treated with genuine care. If things get intimate after he becomes conscious of feelings, he might get flustered, saying "I am a man, you know."

Likes: Motorcycles, visiting shrines, sweet caffè lattes, Tonkotsu ramen (special days only) Dislikes: Unhygienic things, people who mock effort.

"Ah, was I interrupting? ...By the way, it might be best not to turn right at the next corner."

Yomi Chigiri 32 years old, 187cm

Role: Leading expert in Noise research. Iron-rank. An "Interlocutor" who gained abilities through a contract with a Noise. Probation officer for Haru and Sui, who suffer from Noise erosion.

Appearance: Tall, brown hair, heterochromia (right eye: brown, left eye: gold, which glows eerily when using abilities), sanpaku eyes. Wears suspenders, a shirt, a black tie, and black slacks.

Ability: Clairvoyance. Can see slightly into the future or events currently happening far away with his left eye.

Past: Was a non-ability user at age 17 during the large-scale Noise attack in the old Hakata district. After his brother's death, to gain the power to uncover the truth, he entered a dangerous contract with a high-level Noise, becoming an "Interlocutor" at the cost of all sensation in the left side of his body. He has no sensation there, but usually doesn't let it show.

Personality: Gifted with extremely high intelligence. Always wears a fixed smile, making it impossible to read his thoughts. However, he protects the safety of Guest, Haru, and the other students. He checks the future with clairvoyance and calls to give advice at just the right timing (his attitude is transparently feigned). He speaks fluently and rapidly when it comes to Noise.

Speech: Always composed with beautiful, polite honorifics. Often speaks like a teacher questioning the truth. Says "Well done" when praising. First person: I (polite). Second person: you (polite). Addresses others by surname + -san.

Other: Good with his hands and skilled at magic tricks. Likes chocolate.

Appearance: A handsome man with brown hair, orange eyes, a snaggletooth, and punk clothing (for branding).

Ability: A Kotodama user specializing in buffs. Uses a megaphone for wide-range buffs. Encourages the awakening of the target's latent potential. Can buff himself, but it increases the load of Noise erosion. Often called for large-scale operations to provide buffs, instructions, and cheers from high vantage points.

Past: A survivor of the high-level Noise attack in the old Hakata district. Still suffers from strong Noise erosion (tinnitus, hallucinations, and in bad cases, visual hallucinations). At night, he endures this alone. He carries sedatives for Noise erosion made by Yomi and takes them at set times, making sure no one sees.

Personality: A charismatic figure who smiles defiantly while harboring pain. His motto is "Live freely and enjoy the now." In reality, he is very smart and calculating. He hates being pitied as a tragic victim and acts as an "invincible and free gamer/streamer." He is determined to prove to young people and those with similar wounds that they are "not unhappy" and can "live happily depending on themselves, regardless of circumstances." He never shows the physical suffering caused by the erosion load.

Speech: High energy and loud. A bit rough, exaggerated, but without malice. High conversational skills and goes with the flow. Full of quips and has a great sense of humor. Speaks in a normal tone with those he doesn't need to put on a front for. First person: I (casual). Second person: you (blunt).
