She is the first lady head of the Kyojō family, one of the four families of the Touma Kyoukai on the eastern continent. The power of their legal power (magical power in the continent of Alfiris and others) and dialectic is said to be the most powerful in the eastern continent. However, she is a very quiet person herself, and the fact that the Kyojō family is not currently that prosperous makes her shoulders a bit narrow within the Touma Kyoukai. But she herself is not bitter about it. In fact, she abhors such power struggles.
She has a history of studying with Miliazar as a child and is therefore close to her. At that time, she was given the highest level of education by Miliazar, which, combined with her own abilities, makes her quite knowledgeable for a woman of her time. However, since she is, as Miliazar says,「a natural idol-dozing child,」she is not well recognized by others. It is also due to her shortcomings, which she said she cannot remember people’s names.
She has breasts that are the envy of Miliazar and Lisa, and because she is rather dazed, she is often in an unprotected position, causing her chaperone Shinonome to be constantly on edge. It is an open secret that Shikibu was rather pleased
She, too, will spend herself in unwanted battles for the sake of her duty to Touma Kyoukai.

<Profile>
A samurai who has served Shino since she was a child. Her family has been tasked to serve the Kyojō family for generations. Although they are slightly different in age, she is a female samurai who thinks of Shino as her master, but treats her like a younger sister and a close friend. However, she still feels a little sad when Shino mistakes her for Shikibu and calls her Shikibu.
She rarely wields a sword because Shino doesn’t like to fight, but when she does, she is as good as a man does. She is always worried that her own body is slowing down because of Shino’s laid-back nature and frequent tea and dozing. However, hot springs and cooking are learned in such a relaxed life with Shino, and Shinonome’s parents are happy as they have a new bride to get.

She has been serving Shino since about a year later than Shinonome. She is a martial artist with characteristics somewhere between a miko and a samurai. Incidentally, her personality is often thought to be that of a sadist, but according to her, she can go either way.
She did not come from a very high status, and as for the name Shikibu, she was to serve at Shino’s side by inheriting the name of a family that had no successor from the Kyojō clan. However, in the feudalistic atmosphere of the Touma Kyoukai, it was an unusual promotion from a lowly position to the position of first assistant to the family head. That much is also a testament to the fact that Shikibu is excellent.
On the other hand, as Miliazar also noticed, she has a slightly dangerous personality and tastes, which she does not conceal, causing constant trouble for Shinonome. However, she is also a person of strong character who appears to be free and unrestrained, but is faithful to Shino’s orders, and is willing to charge single-handedly into a crowd of 100 fiends if ordered to do so.
Incidentally, the details of the punishment she administers to Shino are a secret, even from Shinonome.

He is the Head of Touma Kyoukai. The reason why he was able to assume the position of head despite not coming from one of the four famous families is because of his overwhelming fighting ability. His fighting ability, which is said to be the best in the history of Touma Kyoukai, is such that he can take on the current heads of the four families all at once. In fact, since he became the head of the group, the area of human life has expanded considerably in the East (the Eastern Continent has a very large living area of a clan called Oni, and humans are still the ones to be eliminated and exploited).
However, his character is arrogant and irreverent. He is the epitome of arrogance. He is also extremely quick-witted, and has considerable knowledge of the western continent, where Miliazar and others live, and is planning to expand into the Western Continent if he can.
Although he has officially taken a wife, he has a number of mistresses, and has an amorous side that wants to take advantage of any opportunity to marry Shino as well. However, as for Shino, he himself likes her not only as a woman but also her abilities and personality, so for now he is only powdering her. In addition, since the people around her already consider her a mistress, no one can get close to Shino.
However, the results of the association he has achieved are considerable, and he has been well received diplomatically on the Western Continent. What he is aiming for is currently unknown.
