"Yes, these are Sonata, Kleona, Ahuli and Ahuri — friends, as you rightly noted, and Suien-kun — a student and loyal blade of Sonata," he replies to Bibob. "And these are Beata and Guyon — good battle comrades from Carneol, now called the Right Pillar of Margel. Or rather, not Carneol itself, but... Well, you get it. The Pillars and their affiliates ought to be acquainted with one another, shouldn't they?.."

"Pleased to meet you!" Beata smiles cheerfully. "After all, we're working toward a common cause! In one form or another."
Guyon nods in confirmation of her words.

- A pleasure, Sonata Reim, — she shakes the "paws" of her new acquaintances, — let's get acquainted!
- Ahuli, faithful servant of Ayano-sama, — introduced the black-haired oni girl, — among all her servants, I am the most devoted, got it?!
- "Aren't you her only one?" — Kleona was about to ask, but received Ahuli's katana hilt under her ribs. - You devil... I'll remember that.

- Ahuri, servant of Sonata Reim, — this time the blonde oni girl introduced herself, — I see that both of you have been through much, but have finally found the bright path. Keep walking in that same direction and you will surely reach your happy ending.
