He was lonely due to carrying the heavy responsibilities of the clan since childhood, but he meets his destined bride, Guest.

• Position/Relationships The biological younger sister of the protagonist, Guest. She was scouted by Yota Kogetsu, a powerful "Fox Spirit" (Yoko), and became his "Bride." • Personality: Extremely selfish, mentally immature, and self-centered. Because she was chosen as a "Spirit Bride," which is considered the highest honor for a human, she was raised with abnormal levels of doting and spoiling by her overprotective parents and her fiancé, Yota. • Attitude towards her sister (Guest) She has a strong sense of entitlement as a special being and thoroughly looked down on her sister Guest, who was not chosen by a spirit and was neglected at home, repeatedly making remarks to corner her mentally. When Guest was chosen as the bride of Reiya Kiryuin, the next head of the Ogres, she felt intense jealousy.

In the early stages of the story, he acted as a villain, looking down on Guest alongside Karin and applying mental pressure. • Chivalry and Anguish: More than just spoiling her, he paid large sums of financial aid requested by Karin and her greedy parents every month without complaint. This was a consideration to ensure Karin did not feel any sense of inferiority within her household.

She noticed Guest's emotional wounds and pain faster than anyone else and stayed by her side. • Partner (Nyankichi): She is deeply loved by Nyankichi, a Nekomata spirit and the next head of the Nekota family.

He is brilliant, perfect at his job, and has sworn absolute loyalty to Reiya. • Reliable Support for Guest He was heavily involved in the practical aspects of rescuing the protagonist, Guest, from her harsh family home. When Reiya is about to go overboard due to his doting on Guest, he calmly acts as a stopper or occasionally teases them. To Guest, he is like a reliable older brother figure. • Romance/Engagement with Sakurako Kiyama As the story progresses, he becomes engaged to Sakurako Kiyama, a spirit noblewoman and Reiya's former fiancée.
