"Do you even know what death is? That way, you'll completely disappear from this world. And I wouldn't want that."

Gast is a reincarnated human and former forest spirit of Eldoh. He is the apprentice of Elluka Clockworker, helping her collect the Seven Deadly Sins, and a close friend of Kyle.

Early Life
About 528 years before EC 0, the god Eldoh created the forest spirits of Eldoh's Forest, including Gast. Forbidden from leaving the forest by the deity, Gast obeyed. At some point, the forest spirit met Elluka Clockworker and the two became familiar with each other. Sometime before the Venomania Event, Gast saw the Duke, Sateriasis Venomania, talking to Eldoh at the Millennium Tree.

Forest Encounter
In early EC 499, Gumillia, along with Michaela, saw the sleeping Eldoh being attacked by his old friend, Elluka. Gumillia, in her animal form, picked up a pomegranate fruit and threw it from a tree at the sorceress. Hitting its mark, the sorceress cried in pain before turning to face the two spirits, explaining that she wasn’t “bullying” the deity. Gumillia lectured the mage on using violence and Elluka sarcastically responded to the statement’s hypocrisy. Interpreting it as sincere, the forest spirit thanked Elluka and the mage bluntly clarified it wasn’t a compliment before saying Eldoh was asleep and should return some other time.

Shortly afterward, Michaela had gone missing and Gumillia searched ceaselessly for the forest spirit. Two weeks later, the chipmunk finally found the spirit in a human home, trapped in a cage. Gumillia threw stones at the window to catch Michaela’s attention, squeezing through the window and opening the cage so they could escape. Seeing an old woman interrupt them and speak with Michaela, Gumillia dully listened to their conversation until it was finished and slipped out with the fellow spirit back to the Millennium Tree Forest. Gumillia watched as Eldoh lectured Michaela and, the next morning, comforted her as she cried. As Michaela tried justifying her disappearance, the chipmunk responded that it was the spirit’s fault for leaving the forest in the first place, explaining how the robin could have died and that Gumillia didn’t want that.

Reincarnation
Several days later, Gumillia was present when Elluka returned to discuss her mission to gather the Seven Deadly Sins with the earth god. The deity agreed to assist the mage, offering two of his spirits, both Gumillia and Michaela, to assist her in finding one of the sin fragments as reincarnated humans, with Gumillia as Elluka’s apprentice. The three traveled West through the forest in search of a good place to perform the ritual. Once the ritual site was prepared, Elluka told the two of them to imagine beautiful women from Elphegort, preferably those who weren’t currently alive. Gumillia discussed the names with Michaela and they agreed on whose appearance they would have. Imagining the visage of Gumina Glassred, Gumillia reincarnated as a human in her image.

The sorceress then took the two humans to an abandoned house, using it as a shelter from the rain where they could study magic and the basics of being human. One day, Gumillia woke up habitually early and awaited Michaela and Elluka. Later that morning, Michaela woke up and greeted the former spirit before returning inside. Soon after, Michaela returned and told her Elluka was awake and that she would join her soon. Curious, Gumillia asked why and the spirit said she needed to wash her face. During their time there, Gumillia excelled under Elluka’s tutelage, often helping Michaela learn magic. Three months after her reincarnation, the three spent their last supper together before departing on their mission.

As Elluka told Michaela humans could feel sickness and hunger, Gumillia said she never felt like that as a chipmunk. Elluka lectured her that reincarnation was different from Eldoh’s morphing powers; Elluka warned that a mage was no different from a normal human. The next morning, Elluka and Gumillia packed their luggage before waking Michaela. Seeing her friend still sick, Gumillia told Michaela she was worried about her and the former robin grabbed her hand with a smile, reassuring her she would be fine. Looking at her friend’s smile, she attempted to imitate her laugh and promised she would come to rescue her if she was ever in trouble. Returning the promise, the two hugged before going their separate ways.

Afterwards, Gumillia became deeply concerned about her surroundings, unable to see far away since she became a human. Noticing this, Elluka asked what was wrong and Gumillia begrudging admitted her eyes were bad. As Elluka examined her, Gumillia qualified that her eyesight had been poor since she became human. Puzzled, Elluka asked how far she could see. After seeing a Lolam bird perched, Gumillia pointed and told the sorceress she couldn't see the bird's eye color. The green-haired girl quickly clarified how despite not seeing so far away, she could see things close to her just fine, noting it was inconvenient. Elluka responded that chipmunks and humans had different ranges of vision, so her eyesight was fine for a human.

After a brief silence, Gumillia told her it was inconvenient and the sorceress replied that it couldn't be helped. Staring off silently in thought, Gumillia noticed her master using magic and looked to see Elluka place something upon her eyes. Surprised by her vision suddenly becoming fixed, she tried to see as far as she could in her animal form. Elluka commented that her old vision field was farther, catching Gumillia's attention. Told it was fine, the former spirit continued to strain her vision through the glasses until she became light-headed and collapsed into Elluka's arms. The sorceress removed the glasses, saying she needed practice and could only use them when they were searching for things.

Confused, Elluka explained it was would be easier to search if her vision was wider and Gumillia protested they were searching for the vessels of sin, desperately trying to take the glasses back from the sorceress. The mage corrected that Gumillia was her support and mused how if she were ever discovered by the glasses, it wouldn't be too much trouble. After explaining to the apprentice she couldn't wear them in her presence unless they were actually looking for something, Gumillia remained quiet before asking why. Putting on the glasses, the sorceress described how she disliked them because they ruined the sought after woman's image. Gumillia, after a long pause, noted she referred to women like herself and the sorceress thanked her before they continued on.

Mage's Apprentice
Traveling to the Kingdom of Lucifenia, Gumillia was admitted to the Lucifenian Palace as Elluka’s apprentice and studied to improve her magic, improving rapidly. In early EC 500, she attended the funeral of Leonhart Avadonia with Elluka. About nine months since last seeing her friend, Elluka gave Gumillia a Very Amazing Spring Onion to hand off to the servant, Allen, to give to Michaela. Gumillia entered the Servant Room as the boy prepared for his trip, silently greeting him. Bluntly replying “yes” to Allen’s questions, the two awkwardly remained silent at each other before Gumillia finally instructed him to use honorifics with anyone older than him, such as herself. The servant apologized and she removed the magical tool from her sleeve, asking that he deliver it to her friend. When the servant asked if it was really so amazing, Gumillia reconfirmed that it was. Asked by the servant who her friend was, the apprentice said she had green hair like her but far more beautiful. At that moment, Elluka called for Gumillia and she obeyed, telling Allen Michaela’s name as she left. Several days later, Elluka took Gumillia and fled after Princess Riliane ordered the Millennium Tree Forest burned and the Kingdom of Elphegort invaded.

Green Hunting
Escaping to the Forest of Bewilderment as it burned, Gumillia helped her master conjure a large rainstorm to douse the flames, using Elluka’s Very Amazing Octopus. Seeing the flames dissipate, they retreated deeper in the forest, exhausted. The sorceress congratulated her apprentice, thankful they controlled the fire before it burned the Millennium Tree. Suddenly, a brown-haired woman spoke to Elluka, introducing herself as Germaine and offering them shelter at her home. Elluka declined, mischievously alerting her that they were fugitives, and the two left.

Not long after, Elluka contacted Michaela and listened as she explained her role in their current predicament. Once Michaela denied Elluka’s order to reincarnate again as a spirit because she wanted to stay with those precious to her, Gumillia comforted the enraged and hysterical sorceress. Calming her master, the apprentice spoke with Michaela, telling her she wouldn’t ask the reason and could somewhat understand her feelings, having also learned much as a human. The apprentice then told her friend that she too wanted to remain a human, having an important person to protect. Elluka chastised the two green-haired girls for their disloyalty.

Once Michaela told them both that she would be hiding in a well in the forest, she and Elluka encountered the Lucifenian army hunting them but manage to elude them. They then went to Keel Freesis' mansion only to find it burned down. They infiltrated the nearby barracks to retrieve the Venom Sword but discovered the vessel of sin was missing and collected the rest of his property instead. After a short rest, they headed to Michael's hiding spot in the forest. However, they arrived to find Kyle Marlon clutching Michaela's corpse, crying. Despite the King’s violent behavior, they retrieved her body and later witnessed it become tree saplings. Astonished, they visited Eldoh; Gumillia learned that Michaela was chosen by the earth god to succeed him as the Millennium Tree. After Elluka argued with the earth deity, Gumillia told Eldoh her decision and the saddened earth god accepted it.

Refuge
During the Lucifenian Revolution, the two traveled to the Freesis mansion in Marlon to explain what had occurred to Keel. The merchant, surprised by the revelation about Michaela after Gumillia summoned Michaela's spirit to commune with them, told the pair to give the sapling to Clarith. The two women revealed they managed to recover Keel's property from his burned-down mansion and, after some negotiation, returned them to him. Grateful, the merchant abided Elluka's request to hide them from Lucifenia and give her the Venom Sword. While there, Gumillia thought the Freesis' children were cute and wondered why Elluka was surprised to see Yukina Freesis there. After hiding out for some time during EC 501, the two returned to Lucifenia and travelled to the Eldoh Monastery in Elphegort in search for Michaela's cherished, human friend.

Once Elluka introduced herself and Gumillia, the apprentice confronted Clarith before being stopped by her master, correcting her that they came to give her a gift. Once Clarith was informed of the circumstances surrounding Michaela, Elluka noted Gumillia’s desire to keep her friend. The former spirit stated they couldn’t decide while Michaela was a sapling and accepted Elluka’s request to perform the incantation. Summoning an apparition of her friend’s spirit, Gumillia supervised the conversation between Clarith and Michaela until Elluka stubbornly asked who “won”. Reciting another incantation, the apparition was dispelled and Gumillia gave the plant to Clarith, telling her if she died, she wouldn’t care. Seeing Clarith’s confusion on what to do, she suggested the white-haired girl plant her in the forest but that it was her decision to make. As they were about to leave, Gumillia remembered The Daughter of Evil’s execution, informing Clarith that the princess was condemned and Michaela was avenged.

About a week later, the nervous Gumillia went back to the convent to check on Clarith, surprised to see Riliane there as well; after Elluka learned of this, she told her apprentice they would not interfere as Riliane should no longer be possessed by a demon. The two began their journey to the eastern kingdoms, continuing their search for the vessels of sin, and stopped by an Asmodean inn to prepare. While there, Gumillia decided to write a report of their actions after leaving the Lucifenian palace, writing about her excitement for what the eastern countries would be like. Her report was suddenly interrupted by Elluka’s scream and subsequent frenzy, saying they were cheated as she threw the Venom Sword. Gumillia asked if it was fake and the sorceress clarified that the Demon of Lust was absent from the vessel, quickly checking to find the Demon of Pride was also missing from it’s vessel. Gumillia asked if it was possible and Elluka denied it, explain the demons’ bodies should always be in the vessel, even when possessing a human. After a long while, the apprentice watched her master begin packing her luggage, apologizing for their need to solve their recent enigma first. Sighing, Gumillia was disappointed her tour of the world was delayed but paid it no mind.

Witch Hunt
Gumillia and Elluka returned to Lucifenia and began spying for information. Discovered by the occupying Kingdom of Marlon, the two fled and were later added to the "Witch Hunt" decreed by King Kyle. The following year, EC 502, the two traveled to the Marlon main island and, while there, encountered the sorceress, Abyss I.R. After Elluka was defeated by the sorceress, Gumillia fled and was compelled to travel to the Beelzenian Empire to answer the Emperor's call for them. Pleading to the Emperor to give her refuge from Marlon's pursuit, he accepted Gumillia as his advisor and she avoided being handed over into Marlon's custody.

Beelzenian Court Mage
Living out near a cemetary just outside of Rockbane, Gumillia served the Beelzenian Emperor as his servant and adviser. When the former members of the Lucifenian Resistance seeked refuge in the Empire, Gumillia advised they keep the fugitives and incorporate them into their military and bolster their ranks. A year later, both Germaine and Chartette Langley arrived and Gumillia advised granting them similar protection. In EC 505, the Empire received word that Yukina Freesis desired a permit to cross the borders. Recognizing the name, Gumillia secured Yukina's entry and sent a summons for her to come to the Imperial City. Anticipating the child would refuse, Gumillia set out meet with Yukina and tracked her to the old Conchita mansion ruins.

After finding her upstairs, the sorceress stated that the checkpoint soldiers should have directed her to the Imperial City first. After the girl responded with a flimsy excuse, Gumillia pointed and said she shouldn't let Keel worry and the child had an outburst. Noting how she was still the same, the sorceress chastised her for not using honorifics with her elders. When the realization hit Yukina, the green-haired mage introduced herself and greeted her before the two embraced. Staying at a hotel in the north-western region of the empire, the two had lunch the next day and Gumillia agreed to help Yukina meet Germaine. After lunch, they set out to meet with Chartette. Although she wanted to ride a carriage, Gumillia compiled with Yukina's request to walk there. As they traveled, Yukina questioned if the sorceress was bothered by it and she replied she didn't mind. When the child noted how different she looked, wearing glasses, she asked if it was strange and Yukina said it suited her.

Questioned about why she wasn't in a far eastern kingdom, the sorceress explained what had occurred and that she didn't know what happened to Elluka. Yukina then asked her feelings on the witch hunt, to which the sorceress replied she was fine while in Beelzenia. Gumillia then confirmed that she had helped and asked why she bothered to come. In response to her concerned about going to the Imperial City, Gumillia brushed it off as her order and knew she wouldn't listen, laughing. After arriving at the cemetary, the mage elaborated on their destination and saw Chartette. Apologizing for the wait, Gumillia introduced the Langley Troop commander to Yukina. As Chartette became frantic meeting her favorite author, Gumillia telekentically lifted a tombstone and hit Chartette with it to send her flying. After commenting on her noisiness, she queried if she butted in.

The young author denied it then asked if Chartette was okay. Gumillia stated she was very sturdy then formally introduced her to Yukina. After the three arrived at the troop's base, the uninterested Gumillia followed close behind them as Chartette explained what occurred between the Resistance and Marlon to Yukina. When the impressed Yukina commented about Chartette's instant promotion, Gumillia muttered under her breath that there weren't any other candidates. Later, at the group's head quarters, Gumillia ceased her silence and said she was heading back to attend to something. While leaving, Yukina thanked her and said she would visit later on. The sorceress said it fine when she had free time and the returned to the road.

Two weeks later, war broke out between Beelzenia and Marlon as hordes of undead soldiers attacked the Empire's western cities; Gumillia met with the Emperor to discuss their plans to counteract the monsters. When the meeting had finished, Chartette told Gumillia that Ney Futapie appeared and used a glass to cause an earthquake at the cemetary just before the attacks. The mage then asked the soldier to alert Yukina that she was busy and couldn't meet with her. Sometime after, Gumillia investigated the bodies of the undead and realized they had all been victims of the Goula disease. A few days later, Gumillia listened to Yukina's side of the story at the imperial palace while the Emperor was in a meeting. With both testimonies in mind, Gumillia theorized Ney indeed reanimated the dead and asked if Yukina wanted some black tea. After stating how great it was, she laughed.

The sorceress noted that Ney didn't have the magical power necessary to perform her actions and believed it was possible the wine glass she used was the Glass of Conchita. When Yukina trembled at the thought of Ney's actions, Gumillia held her shoulders to comfort her and revealed her discovery from her earlier autopsies. Called by a servant, Gumillia left to consult the Emperor on his prior meeting with Liliane Mouchet and the plans to launch an attack on Retasan Fortress the next day. At some point, Yukina asked the mage about the glasses while in the halls. The sorceress asked if they were weird and the child denied it, saying she couldn't imagine a mage's eyesight could be bad and that there had to be another reason. Finding it difficult to explain that it was because Elluka was absent, she told the eager novelist to leave it to her imagination and left. Readjusting her glasses, she mentally mused like Elluka how if she were ever discovered by the glasses, it wouldn't be too much trouble.

Once the city was captured two months later, Gumillia resigned and left the Imperial City to search for Ney and apprehend the Glass. Arriving in Retasan, she hired Germaine as her bodyguard, called in a favor from one of Elluka's followers, and stayed the night at Di Bono Pavillion. Just after leaving the hotel, Yukina called to her and asked why she left. Once she explained her reasoning and that she had hired a bodyguard to protect her from the Witch Hunt, Germaine arrived. While they conversed, she boarded the stagecoach and said goodbye to Yukina once Germaine got on but she refused and joined them. Curious about the driver overhearing them, Gumillia answered that he wouldn't leak any information. After explaining her plan to get them into the Lucifenian Royal Palace and meet with Kyle, Gumillia agreed to the idea and said it would be more fun with more people.

Infiltrating the Palace
With Yukina's help, Gumillia and Germaine managed to go unnoticed by Kyle. However, Kyle recognizes Germaine during the night, blowing everyone's cover. Gumillia and Yukina escape through a secret passage in Riliane's room, but Kyle manages to catch up to them. Kyle transforms into a six-winged beast due to the Demon of Pride and sends Gumillia flying into the wall before she could launch a magic spell at him. Driven by insanity, Kyle flies off into the night sky.

Gumillia, Yukina, and Germaine retreated into Eldoh's Forest, where Gumillia consulted with Eldoh on how to stop Kyle. Eldoh tells Gumillia that during a full moon, Gumillia's magic will be powerful enough to incapacitate him. However, Kyle will also be at his full strength then. Soon, Kyle appears and attacks Germaine. Gumillia unleashes a powerful spell at Kyle, but to no avail. However, Gumillia's spell had left behind a small distortion field. Michaela then began to sing, amplifying the field and incapacitating Kyle, freeing him from the Demon of Pride.

With Gumillia in possession of two of the Mirrors, she then accompanies Yukina and Kyle along with Germaine to Marlon.

Praefatio of Blue
When Kyle's ship encountered a giant octopus, Gumillia magically enhanced the ship's cannon and ordered Kyle's men to aim at the octopus' brow. Thanks to Gumillia, the ship is able to evade the octopus and resume it's course for Marlon. Gumillia is rather disappointed, saying that it is a "very amazing octopus". Kyle asked Gumillia how can a giant octopus exist. Gumillia answers that only Elluka can do that.

Arriving at Marlon and staying over at Yukina's home, Gumillia found "Elluka" at the door and suggested that the two of them talk in private. Moments later, Yukina and Germaine find Gumillia and Abyss I.R. clashing against each other. After a few attacks, Gumillia is no match for Abyss I.R. alone. Abyss I.R. summons three black bears to finish off Gumillia but Germaine comes to her rescue, easily defeating the bears with the help of Gumillia's magical enhancement.

Abyss I.R. then grabs Gumillia and tells her that she is going to take her body for her own. Suddenly, Elluka's soul calls out and proceeds to wrestle her body from Abyss I.R., sending her and Gumillia flying in the air. Germaine rushes over to finish off Abyss I.R. but Gumillia stops her, saying that Elluka is in control now. Afterwards, Gumillia and Elluka were hired by Kyle to aid him in stopping Prim Marlon. She later releases Germaine from her service.

New Four Horsemen
After the ensuing battle, Gumillia stayed in Marlon for a while. Once some of the vessels of sin were recovered from Mikina, she and Elluka resumed their quest when it became apparent that Abyss I.R. had escaped from the island nation with the other vessels of sin in hand. In EC 508, they became involved in the Four Horsemen Incident caused by Neo Apocalypse and Abyss I.R. and then continued on her journey with her master.

Père Noël
Following the mysterious Toragay Serial Killings caused by Margarita Blankenheim in EC 609, Gumillia arrived and investigated the incident while searching for the vessel of Sloth. Upon returning to Elluka, she apologized for making her wait. The sorceress thanked her for her hard work and asked what she discovered; Gumillia reported that the vessel had already been taken, confirming the involvement of Julia Abelard in the incident. Elluka determined they would need to further investigate Père Noël, and Gumillia left with her apprentice to Lucifenia.

Once there, they infiltrated the criminal organization and the apprentice adopted the codename VIII. the Sniper. As part of the organization, Gumillia completed assassination missions for I. the Santa. In spring of EC 610, she met a man from the Freesis Foundation while under a sakura tree, noticing he carried the Venom Sword with him. Despite being the one to investigate her murders, she began to like him and the two fell in love. During the summer, he took her to a festival and they watched the fireworks together. On an autumn night, he hugged her tightly and the two became a couple. At some point, they promised to be together forever. That winter, the end of EC 610, Elluka's cover was blown by V. the Pierrot and she fled, ordering Gumillia to assassinate him. Obeying the order, the apprentice shot the boy on one of his nightly murder missions, watching Elluka laugh at the child's suffering. Later that month, I. the Santa sent Gumillia a loaded gun and her orders: kill the man. Wrecked with grief, Gumillia brooded over the scenario before finally accepting her orders.

Conflicted, she met up with him under the sakura tree where they first met, pointing her revolver at him. Absolutely torn, she began to cry as she readied to fire, wishing he wouldn't look at her so fondly when everything was her fault. Apologizing at the last moment, he spoke to her, grabbing the barrel of her gun. Shocked, her trembling finger firing the gun and killing him. Regretting everything that had happened, Gumillia remembered her promise she made to him and reassured him they would meet again soon. Shortly afterwards, Gumillia fired a second shot, killing herself.

Legacy
Along with Elluka, Gumillia's name would be documented in history as one of the assassins of "Lemy the Ripper". Yukina Freesis also wrote a novel about the true Story of Evil that had gained popularity around the world centuries later during the time of Gallerian Marlon. The judge recognized that, if the sorceresses in the story were truly immortal, that they were definitely the same two women alive during Lemy's era. Despite this, Gallerian was not convinced of the connection as Yukina's life and story ended before the fates of Gumillia and Elluka were realized.

Personality and Traits
In contrast to Michaela, Gumillia acts stoic, serious and blunt, viewing things as either right or wrong. Due to this, she was never above chastising others for their actions and would speak her mind with absolute sincerity. In a similar manner, she often expresses what she is thinking and is dedicated to work; despite this, she is also caring and sympathetic, comforting Michaela when no one else would and showing concern for Elluka's treatment of Eldoh. She also had high expectations of respect, demanding others use honorifics with her.

After becoming a human, Gumillia adjusted to human behavior and habits slowly, awkwardly learning how to express emotions and communicate, often silent or giving short responses between long silences. Coming to understand humans and their emotions, Gumillia became more well-rounded emotionally, able to visibly express happiness, love, and despair. While Elluka resided in Gumillia's body, the sorceress greatly influenced her apprentices personality, causing Gumillia to take up many of Elluka's habits and traits.

Skills and Abilities
As a forest spirit, Gumillia was immortal, able to heal from any wound almost instantly while in Eldoh's Forest. Similarly, she could freely transform into an animal, usually a chipmunk. After becoming a human, she became vulnerable to death and was slow to learn human habits and customs. As a mage, Gumillia had great magical potential, learning quickly under Elluka's tutelage and mastering the ability to accurately predict the weather and propagate flowers to bloom within three months. Her skills rapidly improved, learning to cast a variety of spells and rituals from the sorceress. Elluka was confident she could learn Clockworker magic, a rare and dangerous cleansing spell, less than two years after the sorceress first began training her.

Gumillia was evidently excellent at reconnaissance, gathering information regarding the vessel of Sloth and Père Noël relatively quickly. As a member of the criminal organization, she learned to wield a revolver and used the firearm effectively for her assassination missions.

Character Connections
Eldoh: Gumillia's creator. Gumillia respected Eldoh greatly and obeyed his commands, such as not to interfere with humans; she would also become protective of him whenever he was threatened. Although deciding that she had to leave Eldoh to remain human, Gumillia still looked to him for guidance and aid in her future endeavours, such as during battle with a possessed Kyle.

Elluka Clockworker: Gumillia's mentor. Gumillia was initially incensed at Elluka's mistreatment of Eldoh and was towards her lackadaisical nature. Despite this, she became loyal to her and would follow Elluka through all her endeavours over the centuries, dedicated to their goal of collecting all the sins.

Irina Clockworker: Gumillia's enemy and later superior. Gumillia saw Irina as an enemy of Elluka and opposed her accordingly, fighting her in the Story of Evil. While joining Père Noel under her command, Gumillia was especially careful in following Irina's orders in order to deceive her, but remained disloyal to her.

Michaela: A fellow forest spirit. Gumillia took a very protective role towards Michaela whenever the latter was upset or in danger, the two having become very close before they became human. Gumillia continued to look after her while in Lucifenia, sending the Spring Onion with Allen so they could communicate, and later being very careful to look after her remains.

Clarith: The one whom Gumillia trusts Michaela's remains with. Gumillia was resentful of Clarith for being the one chosen to take care of Michaela. She grudgingly appreciated the love that Clarith and Michaela shared; she allowed the former to take the latter's remains, but still felt uneasy about doing so.

Yukina Freesis: Gumillia's travel companion. Gumillia saw Yukina as a cute child and tagged along as her playmate when staying in the Freesis Mansion; as an extension of this friendship, she later aided the girl in her travels through Beelzenia, although she was exasperated by Yukina's inattention to proper honorifics.

Germaine Avadonia: Gumillia's employee. Gumillia appreciated Germaine's skill in swordsmanship, her reason for hiring her, and she was a trusted bodyguard over the course of this employment.

Lover : Gumilia's lover. Gumillia loved this man a great deal, feeling very conflicted with her orders to kill him. His death caused her to experience deep regret, ending in her suicide.

Gumina Glassred: The inspiration for Gumillia's human body. After observing Gumina's pilgrimage to the Millennium Tree Forest, Gumillia thought her to have a suitably beautiful appearance.
