Gumillia

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

- Gumillia

Gumillia was the apprentice of Elluka Clockworker and a former forest spirit of Held. To watch over Elluka and help her collect the vessels of sin, Gumillia was incarnated as a human and accompanied her master throughout her travels. Becoming involved in numerous events, the former spirit eventually joined Père Noël as Eighth Sniper along with Elluka to investigate the organization.

Early Life
"It's possible that I'll someday need you to briefly leave to outside this forest." "What for?" "There's a human I don’t want Elluka to meet. Should the time come that that human attempts to contact Elluka, I want you to become her monitor, and watch over her so that person doesn't go near her."

- Held and Gumillia

In BT 528, the god Held created Gumillia and the other forest spirits in Held's Forest from the spirits of god kin who died in the creation of Third Period. Forbidden from leaving the forest by the deity, Gumillia obeyed. At some point, the forest spirit met Elluka Clockworker and the two became familiar with each other. Sometime after the Venomania Event, Gumillia caught sight of the aristocrat Gumina Glassred praying to Held at the Millennium Tree on several occasions.

In EC 325, the spirit was called by Held and promptly answered him. Tasked with telling the other spirits to strengthen the barrier around the forest to prevent powerful mages from entering for a while, the spirit noted how that would keep Elluka from entering as well. Held stated that was perhaps for the best and Gumillia asked if they had a fight. After Held affirmed it wasn't that but something that would be better for her, the spirit promptly accepted the task.

The god then told Gumillia that he may someday have the spirit briefly leave the forest in case a human he didn't want Elluka to meet came in contact with her, tasking the entity to assure that person didn't go near her. When the spirit asked how it would do that, Held brushed it off as something that wouldn't happen till much later. Saying the barrier was more important and he entrusted the task to her, Gumillia complied and let the tired god sleep, telling all the spirits his command and strengthening the barrier for some time.

Forest Encounter
"Elluka, there is no good in immediately resorting to violence." "Stolid speech as ever, Gumillia. Or rather, commendable of you to say that while throwing things at people." "Why thank you." "That wasn't a compliment."

- Gumillia and Elluka

In early EC 499, Gumillia, along with Michaela, saw the sleeping Held being attacked by his old friend, Elluka. Gumillia, in her animal form, picked up a pome 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 then 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 Held was asleep and should return some other time. As the sorceress left, Gumillia watched Michaela fly over and speak with the mage.

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 then watched as Held 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. Michaela then apologized to the chipmunk.

Sometime around this point, Held became concerned in regards to Elluka's true nature as an amnesiac Levia. Formulating a plan, Held assigned Gumillia the role of becoming Elluka's apprentice, latching onto the mages desire for one. With that, Gumillia would monitor Elluka and reseal her should her memories return. Assigned this goal, Gumillia agreed.

Incarnation
"I suggest Gumillia for your disciple. That reliable child would be able to monitor you so you don't indulge yourself." "So she doubles as a monitor..."

- Held and Elluka

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 incarnated 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 incarnated 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.

After a month since their incarnation, 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 incarnation was different from Held’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, being unable to see. Noticing this, Elluka asked what was wrong and Gumillia remained silent before begrudgingly admitting her eyes were bad. While Elluka examined her, Gumillia qualified that her eyesight had been poor since she became human. The puzzled sorceress then asked how far she could actually see.

After seeing a Rollam bird perched on a faraway tree, Gumillia pointed to it and told Elluka that she could see the bird's eye color. When Elluka retorted that that was more than enough, the apprentice quickly explained how she couldn't see things close by, noting it was inconvenient. Seeing her master's confused expression, she clarified she could see like that before, hence the inconvenience.

Elluka then realized what was wrong and explained that chipmunks and humans had different ranges of vision, so her eyesight was normal for a human. After a brief silence, Gumillia reiterated that it was inconvenient and the sorceress replied that it couldn't be helped. Staring off in thought silently, Gumillia noticed her master using magic and looked to see Elluka place glasses upon her eyes. Surprised by her vision suddenly becoming fixed, she tried to see as close as she could.

Elluka commented that her old vision field was farther, catching Gumillia's attention, and Elluka decided it was fine. The former spirit continued to strain her vision through the glasses while Elluka said she'd give them to the former spirit. The mage immediately added that their magic forced her field of vision to widen. As the mage warned she'd get dizzy as she was, Gumillia became light-headed and collapsed into Elluka's arms.

The sorceress then removed the glasses, saying she needed practice and could only use them when they were searching for things. Confused by what her master meant, Elluka explained it was would be easier to search if her vision was wider. Gumillia protested they were searching for the vessels of sin, desperately trying to take the glasses back from the sorceress while she hung them above her head.

The mage then corrected her apprentice, saying she was her support and mused how even if she were ever discovered wearing the glasses, it wouldn't cause any trouble. After explaining to the apprentice she couldn't wear them in her presence unless they were actually looking for something, Gumillia asked why and, 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, said that was just like her and the sorceress thanked her.

Mage's Apprentice
"I want you to give this to my friend in Elphegort for me." "This is... a green onion?" "Yes, a green onion. A very amazing green onion."

- Gumillia and Allen Avadonia

Traveling to the Kingdom of Lucifenia, Gumillia was admitted to the Lucifenian Palace as Elluka’s apprentice and studied to increase her skills with magic in preparation for learning the Clockwork Secret Art, improving rapidly; during that time, Elluka told her apprentice about what she learned about the Glass of Conchita, including its powers of reanimation.

In EC 500, she attended the funeral of Leonhart Avadonia with Elluka. Once the mage insulted the dead man at his grave, they left. About nine months since last seeing Michaela, Elluka gave Gumillia a Very Amazing Green 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.

Gumillia then 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.

Green Hunting
"I've decided too. If you're going to remain human, Michaela, then I won't return to being a spirit either."

- Gumillia

Several days later, Elluka took Gumillia and fled after Princess Riliane ordered the Millennium Tree Forest burned and the Kingdom of Elphegort invaded. Escaping to the Forest of Bewilderment as it burned, Gumillia helped her master conjure a large rainstorm to douse the flames, sacrificing Elluka’s ziz tiama.

Seeing the flames dissipate, they retreated deeper in the forest, exhausted. The sorceress then 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 incarnate 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 Freezis' 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 Michaela'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 Held; 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 Held her decision and the saddened earth god accepted it.

Refuge
"Keel’s children were very cute, but I didn't understand why Elluka was so surprised upon seeing Mr. Keel's wife."

- Gumillia's writings on their time with the Freezis Family

During the Lucifenian Revolution, the two traveled to the Freezis 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. After some negotiation, they returned them to him and the grateful merchant abided Elluka's request to hide them from Lucifenia and give her the Venom Sword.

During that period, Gumillia revealed her and Michaela's true identity to Keel and used a ritual to show that her spirit incarnated as a tree sapling. Amazed, Keel advised they give Michaela to Clarith, saying she would want to see her friend first when she became a tree. While there, Gumillia played with the Freezis' children, lecturing Yukina and Shaw when they didn't address her respectfully, and noticed Elluka's surprise to see Keel's wife there. After hiding out at the mansion for several months, the two left and returned to Lucifenia once The Daughter of Evil was executed.

In EC 501, the two traveled to the Held Monastery in Elphegort in search for Michaela's cherished, human friend. After Elluka introduced herself and Gumillia to Clarith, the apprentice confronted the white-haired girl 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 then 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. After seeing Michaela and Clarith happily reunited and confess their love for one another, Elluka stubbornly asked the apprentice 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 its 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
"The Witch Hunting Order... Is Miss Gumillia okay with it?" "Only in this country."

- Yukina and Gumillia regarding her history with the Witch Hunt

Gumillia and Elluka returned to Lucifenia and began spying for information. As part of their search, Elluka had them pursure King Kyle since she had noticed he'd been possessed by the Demon of Lust during their last meeting. With the King annexing Lucifenia as part of Marlon, Elluka and Gumillia infiltrated the royal palace where he resided and learned the Demon of Lust was gone and he had since been possessed by the Demon of Pride.

Once they found that Kyle owned another one of the hand mirrors for the vessel, they attempted to steal it that night from his bedroom. In the midst of their theft, the King awoke and discovered their actions. Forced to flee, the two lost possession of the Venom Sword during their escape; they were later added to the "Witch Hunt" decreed by King Kyle. Suspicious that Kyle's two consecutive possessions weren't simply a coincidence, Elluka decided they'd investigate his mother, Queen Dowager Prim.

In EC 502, the two traveled to the Marlon as part of their investigation. While attempting to find Prim at Marlon Castle, they were instead ambushed by the Espionage Task Force and the sorceress, Abyss I.R. After Elluka was defeated by the sorceress, Gumillia fled, unknowingly harboring Elluka's spirit within her via the mage's Swap Technique.

Beelzenian Court Mage
"You two were obviously foreigners but for you to hold a position in the Beelzenian Empire? Wow." "Well that was because Elluka had some connections."

- Yukina and Gumillia regarding the latter's prestigious position

Later that year, Gumillia traveled to the Beelzenian Empire to answer the Emperor's summons for Elluka. Pleading to the Emperor to give her refuge from Marlon's pursuit, he accepted Gumillia as his adviser and she avoided being handed over into Marlon's custody. Because Elluka was no longer with her, Gumillia began wearing the glasses she gave her instead of using magic to improve her vision.

While living near a cemetery just outside of Rukolbeni, Gumillia served the Beelzenian Emperor as his personal adviser. When the former members of the Lucifenian Resistance sought 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 that they grant the two similar protection.

In EC 505, the Empire received word that Yukina Freezis 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 for the Emperor. Anticipating the child would refuse, Gumillia set out to meet with Yukina and tracked her to the old Conchita mansion ruins. Once she found 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. The two then stayed a hotel in the north-western region of the empire. During lunch the next day, Gumillia agreed to help Yukina meet Germaine.

After their meal, 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 had 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 cemetery, the mage elaborated on their destination and saw Chartette. Apologizing for the wait, Gumillia introduced the Langley Unit commander to Yukina. As Chartette became frantic meeting her favorite author, Gumillia lifted a tombstone with telekinesis and hit Chartette with it to send her flying.

After noting her noisiness, she asked if she butted in. The young author denied it before questioning if Chartette was okay. Gumillia stated she was very sturdy then formally introduced her to Yukina. Once 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.

War with the Undead
"But when I examined the dead soldiers, I found something a bit interesting." "Something interesting?" "All of the corpses that have become dead soldiers were people who had died of the same disease."

- Gumillia and Yukina

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 cemetery 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 Gula Disease. A few days after that, 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. As Yukina noted how she was acting a bit odd, the mage questioned if that was so.

The sorceress then 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 what she discovered from her earlier autopsies. Called by a servant, Gumillia left to consult the Emperor on his prior meeting with Riliane Mouchet and his plans to launch an attack on Retasan Fortress the next day.

At some point, Yukina caught up to her in the halls and asked the mage about why she needed to wear glasses. The sorceress asked if they were weird and the child denied it, saying she couldn't imagine a mage's eyesight deteriorating and that there had to be another reason. Realizing she had good intuition, Gumillia admitted she couldn't hide the reason anymore.

Bothered by having to explain the whole story, she told Yukina it was simply because Elluka wasn't there. When pressed for details, Gumillia said she'd leave it to her imagination and left, saying she had official business to attend to. Readjusting her glasses, she mentally mused Elluka's words that, if she were ever discovered with the glasses, it wouldn't cause any trouble.

Duty Begins Again
"D-Do you know where you're going?" "I'm trying to find Ney, I believe. If she really does possess the Glass of Conchita, then I can't let her act freely."

- Yukina and Gumillia

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 Pavilion. 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.

After they reached Rollam, Gumillia and her compatriots checked in at a hotel in the city. Learning that Kyle was attending a dinner party at Corpa's mansion, the mage and her sellsword disguised themselves as Yukina's masked Asmodean bodyguards of the Almoga Morabez ethnicity; the three then went to the estate but neither Germaine nor Gumillia were permitted to enter, allowing Yukina to enter and tell Kyle of her planned visit to the royal palace.

Infiltrating the Palace
"Hey! You two. You're in the presence of His Majesty. Remove your masks." "By the laws of our village, we can't expose our faces in public. Our humblest apologies."

- Clive and Gumillia

The next day, Gumillia and Germaine again donned their disguises and entered the palace as Yukina's bodyguards. Entering the Hall of Mirrors, the three knelt before Kyle while Yukina greeted him. When a guard demanded they remove their masks, Gumillia stated it was the law of their family to not reveal their faces and Kyle accepted their wishes. As Yukina prepared to search the palace for new novel ideas, they accompanied her out of the Hall of Mirrors.

That evening, the three of them were invited to stay at the Lucifenian Royal Palace and they moved into the palace's guest rooms. During their stay, Gumillia learned from Yukina that Kyle kept one of the hand mirrors in his possession as a gift from his mother. Devising a plan with Germaine, the mage decided they'd steal the hand mirror from Kyle's bedroom and escape.

Later that night, as they prepared to execute their plan, they were attacked by the Espionage Task Force and their room was bombed. Surviving the blast, the two "bodyguards" fled while battling the task force members throughout the palace. During this time, Gumillia retrieved the Venom Sword from Kyle's possessions. Once they secured the mirror from Kyle's room, Gumillia took Yukina to Riliane's old room next door while Germaine stayed to act as a diversion. The two then escaped via the secret passage within the fireplace and headed down to the royal stables.

While they attempted to escape, Kyle unexpectedly appeared after them and took back the mirror from Yukina. When Yukina noted how the king was acting strange, Gumillia replied that he was seriously ill and completely dependent upon the demon. Kyle retorted if demons was really what the chaos was really all about and Gumillia called him hopeless for not knowing about their existence. As they argued over their existence, the sorceress asserted that he was being misled by one.

Gumillia then watched as Kyle spoke with Yukina and began to bend under his demonic possession. Once Kyle started to transform into a six-winged beast, Gumillia realized their situation had soured and tried to cast a spell. Before she could finish her technique, Kyle telekinetically knocked her into the air before slamming her back down into the ground. The sorceress was then sent flying when the king flapped his wings and slammed into the wall before he flew off into the night sky.

Afterwards, the injured Gumillia and Yukina regrouped with Germaine. Blamed for the King's sudden disappearance, they fled and eventually evaded the Espionage Task Force and the Marlon army. Later on, Germaine confirmed she saw something flying in the night sky while she was fleeing, tracing the trajectory northwest towards the Millennium Tree Forest.

Battle in the Forest
Two weeks since escaping the palace, Gumillia decided they should check areas Kyle might've gone to in the forest. Along with her companions, the mage trudged through the Forest of Bewilderment with Germaine as the lead. Aiming for the old well where Michaela died, Gumillia noted that they were close. Once they reached the sign dividing the border between Lucifenia and Elphegort, Germaine said she only knew the layout of the Lucifenia side. Gumillia then stated she'd take the lead and hurried them onward.

Once they reached their destination, Gumillia stopped to stare at the old well before them, sensing traces of the demon's magic there. As Germaine inspected the area and Yukina explained how it was a Freezis family hiding place, Gumillia approached them to mention what she had felt. When Germaine fearfully asked if Kyle himself was there, the mage stated he had already left. While Germaine headed down the well to investigate, Gumillia rested beneath some shade.

After the swordswoman returned thirty minutes later, the mage stood up and hurried them to leave and check the other locations. When they passed by a nearby grave, the three prayed to the soldier before moving on. The sorceress then consulted Held on how to defeat Kyle and the deity told Gumillia that her magic would be strong enough to incapacitate him, although the same applied to Kyle.

Soon after, Kyle tracked the three and attacked Germaine, prompting Gumillia to cast the Clockwork Secret Art on him. Amplified by Michaela's spell song, the distortion field created by the technique successfully freed Kyle of the Demon's possession and rendered him unconscious. After sealing the second mirror from the blue-haired king, Gumillia learned from Kyle that he had lost his memories and the sorceress was given safe passage to Marlon in order to uncover the mysteries surrounding the events.

Voyage to Marlon
"She's one of the patrons who saved me. We have no choice but to bet on her."

- Kyle to Admiral Dylan

Later on, Gumillia and Germaine received invitations from Keel, asking them to join him for a future dinner party he'd host in Marlon and return via the ship he sent to them. Accepting his offer, the two accompanied Kyle, Yukina, and Shaw on their voyage to Marlon on the King's flagship, the Royal Victoricia. Shortly after boarding the battleship, they set sail for Marlon.

During the journey, Gumillia became reacquainted with Shaw and made him her underling. When the ship was attacked by pirates the next day, Gumillia noticed the fleeing pirate ship was destroyed by a giant ziz tiama. Heading to the battery deck, Gumillia argued with the gunner to have her modify the cannons and was denied access without permission from the captain. After Shaw agreed to help with his entourage once they got permission, the mage headed up to the main deck.

Demanding to know who the captain was, Admiral Dylan answered and asked what she wanted. After Gumillia stated she needed his permission to work on the cannons, the surprised admiral denied her request and pointed out that she could hurt herself, being an amateur. Gumillia insisted that he only write a few words for the guns, stating it would only take her ten minutes. King Kyle then interrupted their conversation and convinced the admiral to comply.

When Dylan inquired if ten minutes would really be enough time for a hundred cannons, Gumillia calculated the work, time, cannon numbers before concluding that fifty was viable before adding she had already prepared for help. She then snapped her fingers and Shaw and his entourage leaped above deck to answer her call. After confirming she got permission and entrusted the task to him, Shaw headed below deck and the group began making the quick magical enhancements to the cannons' firepower.

Ten minutes later, Gumillia and her assistants finished the preparations and Gumillia relayed orders to fire everything at once at the creature's forehead on her signal. Dylan questioned the target and, seeing the giant red swelling on the admiral's own forehead, Gumillia reaffirmed the spot while unhesitantly placing her finger on his sore spot. The mage shared that it was its weak spot. Once the looming octopus reaches its highest point, Gumillia gave the order to fire and the creature was incapacitated by the cannon volley.

After, Gumillia watched as the angry messenger boy and admiral discussed the cannons breaking down, quietly considering that the hasty preparations may have caused backlash. Once the ship escaped the octopus, Gumillia remained grim while everyone else cheered, contemplating the dark implications of a creature seemingly only Elluka could control attacking them.

Kyle then expressed his thanks for saving them and she remained silent. As the king left for his cabin, Gumillia muttered the creature's identity to him. When Kyle expressed his shock that it was the octopus from "back then", the mage questioned his words. The blue-haired monarch explained that his mother had given a "very amazing octopus" to Elluka five years ago.

Recalling the octopus sacrificed to douse the Millennium Tree Forest, Gumillia explained that it wasn't the same octopus and what happened to the previous one. When Kyle questioned if she could create such a giant octopus to attack them, the mage admitted she couldn't and that one needed to have a great amount of magic power to do so. After a deep breath, Gumillia explained that Elluka was the only person left in the world who could control a very amazing octopus.

Guests of the Merchant
"You were late today and Kyle's not here. You're also tired from the voyage. Bedrooms have been prepared so you should rest easy. Let me trying hearing the full story tomorrow."

- Keel to Gumillia and Germaine

After they arrived at Jamet, Gumillia and the others said goodbye to the sailors while they headed off to party; the group then took three carriages prepared for them, Gumillia joined by Germaine and two attendants. After they arrived at the Freezis Mansion, the mage dismounted from the carriage and waited behind the Freezis children at the entrance with Germaine as a servant was sent to summon Keel.

Afterward, Gumillia watched the merchant rush over and dote on his daughter before Yukina introduced him to the two visitors. Keel then formally greeted the two, noting it had been a while, and welcomed them inside to chat at the dinner table after their long journey. The three went to the dining hall and spoke about matter before the rest of Keel's family joined them. Once the food was served and they were all seated, Gumillia ate with Germaine and the family.

After they all had finished, the merchant recommended their two guests rest in the bedrooms they repaired and recount what had happened to him tomorrow. Gumillia then watched as the drunk Germaine horrified Keel and Mikina about their seafaring experience. Yukina and Shaw then recommended they wait to tell the full story until the day after and the entire table retired for the night. As everyone headed for bed, Gumillia left the mansion and headed north into Column Forest and performed magic rituals in preparation for the battles ahead.

Reunited with the Master
Staying at the home in Bariti, Gumillia later encountered Elluka at the door and, surprised, suggested they talk in private. Heading outside by Column Forest, the sorceress was soon after attacked by her master and they became locked in combat.

After being attacked only several times, Gumillia was overwhelmed by the sorceress when Yukina and Germaine arrived. After the woman revealed herself to be Abyss I.R., she summoned three black bears to attack Gumillia. Germaine rushed to protect her and, aided by Gumillia's magical enchantments, the swordswoman easily defeated the three creatures. Abyss I.R. then grabbed the green-haired mage and said she would take her body for herself.

At that moment, Elluka's spirit called out and wrestled control from the sorceress, sending both women flying into the air. As Germaine prepared to finish off the incapacitated Abyss, Gumillia stopped her, saying that Elluka regained control. Falling unconscious due to exhaustion, Germaine carried the green-haired mage back to her room at the Freezis Mansion.

Later on, while sharing Elluka's company in her room, Germaine came in with the visiting King Kyle. Avoiding eye contact with the King, she listened to Elluka fill him in on what occurred and chastise him for not apologizing to her about the Witch Hunt. She then listened to Kyle explain the situation about the undead soldiers sighted in the north and the high probability of Queen Dowager Prim and Ney being at Castle Hedgehog. While hearing Kyle attempt to recruit them for his planned attack against the undead soldiers, Elluka refused on account of their weakened state until the next full moon.

When Kyle told them to get some rest and began to leave, Gumilla asked if he was really heading out to Castle Hedgehog and then inquired when he would go. After Kyle answered he wanted to leave Bariti in a few days, Gumillia told him to bring her the soldiers' weapons. Although admitting it would be uncomfortable, she offered to lend her power to them. In response, Kyle grabbed her hands and thanked the mage; he then apologized for everything he'd done, causing Gumillia to blush. At that moment, Elluka pulled them apart and teased her apprentice for continuing the conversation without her.

Gumillia retorted that it was best for them to assist Kyle and, when Elluka asked why, she reminded her of the Glass of Conchita. Admitting she forgot, Elluka pointed out that they also needed to ask Prim about the Venom Sword and Gumillia added that they also had to ask about the mirrors, taking out two of them to show her. Shortly after, Elluka agreed to pitch in and help Gumillia with enchanting the soldiers' weapons. She then saw the eavesdropping Yukina leap at Kyle and beg him to let her accompany him. Afterwards, the mage watched as Kyle convinced her to stay behind and be promptly beat up by an overprotective Keel.

Tides of Battle
Over the next few days, Gumillia and Elluka engraved enchantments into all the soldiers' weapons to help them combat the supernatural threat. Having not yet given out all the provisions to the troops, the two mages traveled with the army to Lioness and helped oversee the repartitioning of the weapons in the main square. During the battle across the Blood Pool Region, the mages remained at Lioness Castle to avoid the undead soldiers while in their weakened state.

Meeting in Lioness
"But, it's worth a try. If Ney is the one that killed Michaela, I want to hear it from her mouth, and, if we can... I want her to apologize."

- Gumillia

After the battle, Gumillia met with Kyle, Keel, Yukina, Germaine, and Elluka in one of the castle's bedrooms while the Marlon King explained what had transpired with Queen Dowager Prim and Ney. When Yukina expressed her concern for them sharing a room with the captured and bound Ney, Gumillia explained that they had robbed her of her weapons, just in case. After Kyle presented the Glass, hand mirrors, and doll he had, Elluka told Gumillia to take out the vessels she carried. The apprentice nodded and took out the two hand mirrors and the Venom Sword, laying them beside the other vessels.

When Elluka objected to healing Ney on account of its unlikely success, Gumillia pointed out that it didn't hurt to try. Afterward, she expressed her desire to hear Ney tell her if she actually killed Michaela, then adding that she also wanted her to apologize. When Keel inquired if the apology was meant for her, Gumillia shook her head while denying the notion. Once Elluka conceded to help and say they needed to return to Bariti and prepare, she told Gumillia to collect the vessels and she complied.

The group then heard a rattling sound outside the room. Keel offered to check it out, claiming to be the only one uninjured in some form, and they heard him talking to someone outside the room before being swiftly interrupted by a dull sound. After the door opened and the room was enveloped by a blue flash, Gumillia was rendered unconscious. Once she and the others awoke, they discovered the vessels of sin missing, Keel seriously injured, and Ney dead. Gumillia was then taken to another room to check if she needed treatment.

Search for Mikina
"I wonder, has Elluka and her protege been searching Marlon? Then, you were sent to Lucifenia as insurance? It's a safe judgment. If I crossed the sea from Marlon, I was likely to come here where it's closest. Ships can't sail to Elphegort due to the blockade, Levianta's too far—  Would I be right?" "A little off. Master Gumillia's gone to Levianta."

- Abyss I.R. and Germaine

Having fulfilled her role as her escort, Gumillia released Germaine from her service. Over the course of two weeks, Gumillia and Germaine assisted Elluka in their search for the perpetrator. During the period, the apprentice heard Elluka's deduction that Abyss I.R. was actually the red cat she always had with her and that she had taken possession of the missing Mikina to steal the vessels of sin.

Once she determined Lucifenia was the fugitive mage's most likely destination, Elluka sent Gumillia to search for Abyss in Levianta just in case while Germaine searched the former kingdom and the sorceress continued searching Marlon. Gumillia then engraved a rune into Germaine's sword to help her locate Abyss' true form once she found her before leaving for Divine Levianta. After Germaine successfully defeated Abyss I.R. and freed Mikina, Gumillia and Elluka collected and sealed the Glass of Conchita and Marlon Spoon in her possession.

Journey East and West
In EC 508, Gumillia and Elluka became involved in the New Four Horsemen Incident caused by Neo Apocalypse and Abyss I.R. Around that time, they lost possession of the Glass of Conchita to the villainous sorceress. In EC 548, Elluka and Gumillia travelled through the Eastern region in pursuit of the Twin Blades of Levianta. In EC 549, they came upon a large wall blocking their path; approaching the watchman there, the mages attempted to pass through when the watchman stopped them.

He then explained that his King mandated that none except their own people were allowed to pass through the gates. Unable to pass through, Elluka and Gumillia left and then colored their hair black to disguise themselves as the guard's race. Returning to the gate, the two were stopped again and told by the watchman that none of his people had such a light skin color. The two mages left the wall again and then colored their skin dark like the sentry's race.

Once they returned to the wall, the guard stopped them for a third time, stating that none of his people had such odd eye colors. As the guard boasted that he and the wall were necessary to protect their great country and that the two shouldn't think poorly of them, Gumillia saw Elluka become furious and blow the watchman away with a powerful wind. When the two opened the gates and saw no great city beyond them, the two questioned what the watchman had been guarding and continued on their journey.

Soon after, they came before a vast ocean. The two later took a small boat across the sea to Jakoku. After failing to retrieve the Twin Blades of Levianta for years, Elluka and Gumillia left Jakoku in EC 558 and returned to the west. Some time after Clarith and her monastic order, the Sisters of Clarith, erected an examinations system to protect the New Millennium Tree, Clarith gave Gumillia and Elluka permits to freely enter the Millennium Tree Forest.

Justea Investigator
During the late sixth century EC, Elluka decided they should disappear from the public eye. Afterwards, they contacted Shaw Freezis and the Freezis Foundation president agreed to assist them in locating the vessels of sin while they took the identities of his deceased great granddaughters, Hanne and Heidemarie Lorre. Assuming the identity of Heidemarie, Gumillia became an officer of the World Police's International Works Department in Marlon while Elluka became a newspaper reporter in Elphegort.

Afterward, the new Justea officer became involved in numerous investigations over the years while pursuing any leads on the red cat mage and the vessels of sin, often recklessly destroying property, harshly interrogating prisoners without permission, and refusing to cooperate with the local police as she pursued each case. At some point, Heidemarie met Willus Zorach and the fellow Justea officer taught her how to construct the weapon. Using the knowledge, Gumillia fashioned her own unique revolver, installing it with the ability to use both regular lead and magic bullets.

After the Lioness Burning Incident allegedly perpetrated by "Elluka Clockworker" in EC 597, the mage duo were forced to stick with their false identities to avoid police pursuit. In EC 606, Heidmarie was made part of the investigation into the Père Noël assassin Fifth Pierrot. Sometime during the investigation, she met Rolled Constable Ayn Anchor in Lucifenia. At some point, Heidemarie showed Ayn her unique gun and told him its origin in Willus' model. Following the diva Rin Chan's debut at Milanais Theater that same year, Gumillia became the girl's avid fan, often skipping work to attend her concerts; she also became familiar with Rin's so-called manager who was infamous for spreading lies.

A year later, Fifth Pierrot was confirmed kill after Willus shot the assassin, ending the case. Sometime after Ayn was stationed in Toragay, he confessed his feelings of love to Heidemarie and the two started dating. After a week, the Justea investigator told the constable she wasn't in love with him from the very beginning and that only he was making a big deal about it. Ayn accepted her wishes and they ended the relationship while agreeing to stay in touch.

Aceid Deputy Mayor Assault Case
After Aceid's Deputy Mayor Banner was attacked on August 15, EC 609, Heidemarie was assigned to the case and headed to the capital; during the investigation, the Elphegort branch received a letter allegedly from Père Noël's leader First Santa Claus, claiming responsibility for the crime. After Rin Chan arrived in Aceid's Southern District on September 1 around 1:00 PM, Gumillia joined the swarms of fans crowding to see her. On September 10, she attended Rin's concert at Central Theater; when the singer commanded the audience to kneel to her, they cheered while listening to her sing thirty-seven songs and two encores.

During the latter half of that month, a Shuburke Newspaper reporter requested an interview regarding Rin Chan and Heidemarie agreed. When asked about her thoughts on the alleged former manager "N A's" claim the diva was lip-syncing to someone behind the scenes, the officer pointed out the character's infamous habitual lying and stated he probably was just hostile at Rin for firing him. The enthusiastic fan exclaimed that the singer would never lip-sync and that she still believed in her.

Rolled Kidnapping-Murder Case
"Honestly, that doesn't mean it's unrelated as you say." "Oh? In that case, explain it to me, Investigator Heidemarie Lorre. What connection those inn residents had to the perpetrator you were chasing for the Rin Chan kidnapping!"

- Heidemarie and Hob Homer

On October 6, Heidemarie learned Rin Chan's manager Ton Corpa was murdered and the diva abducted allegedy by Fifth Pierrot earlier that morning. Determined to save Rin, Heidemarie zealously investigated Fifth Pierrot's whereabouts. Following a lead that Fifth Pierrot and Rin Chan had taken a carriage from Aceid to Toragay and that the driver was the son of the local innkeeper, the officer travelled to the town. Approaching the inn late into the night, Heidemarie fired her gun through the windows. The officer then broke down the door and raided the building. Heading up the second floor, she slowly moved around before finally yelling for Fifth Pierrot to come quietly, stating she knew he brought Rin there.

Once a figure came down the attic ladder, she pointed her muzzle toward the woman and told her not to move. After she sighed, Gumillia recognized Elluka and lowered her gone, inquiring why she was there. When "Hanne" stated she was there for an interview and asked her the same thing, Heidemarie hesitantly answered that she was chasing Rin's abductor. After her "sister" confirmed she didn't recall such a person, the officer expressed her disbelief and Hanne sighed again. Afterward, she confirmed the inn owner, Brigitta, knew nothing regarding Rin Chan's abduction or her abductor and that the building wasn't connected to the crime.

Later on, Heidemarie received summons from Chief Hob Homer and returned to Marlon headquarters. Entering the chief's office on October 15, the officer placidly argued with Hob regarding her actions, claiming that the fact she attacked Toragay residents uninvolved with the crime didn't mean it was unrelated like he said. As she explained her deduction the criminal and hostage must've been in that inn given the carriage driver's relation to the inn owner, Hob interrupted to point that the carriage driver had already taken the two and dropped them off at the Kiel checkpoint.

Questioning how he already knew, Heidemarie listened to Hob answer that that the Elphegort branch's officers seemed to be better than her despite failing to stop the carriage before it reached the checkpoint. He then exclaimed that the important matter was her off-point investigating of a crime scene, slamming his fists upon his desk. Hob then plainly told her he was taking her off the investigation and and the Justea investigator questioned why he would. Hob retorted it was obvious why with all the trouble she caused.

After hearing him list her destruction of property, overall disobedience and negligence of duty, Gumillia heard him top it off with her talking freely with reporters while putting the Shuburke newspaper from two weeks ago before her on his desk. He then noted the fan in the "Diva Rin Chan Lip-Syncing Allegations" article was her, expressing his fury at her unauthorized interview with the press. Heidemarie corrected that she only answered because she was asked, adding her belief that Rin Chan would never lip-sync. Hob then exploded about her actually caring about such an issue and involving Justea in it.

Once he calmed down, the department chief told her to just rest for a while, though lamenting he actually wanted to fire her. Hob then noted that her sister was among the attacked and stated it was the perfect opportunity to spend time with her lonesome sibling in their homeland. After Heidemaire conceded and began to leave, he quickly stopped her and told the woman to put the weapon there on his desk. The suspended officer refused, citing it was her belonging. WHen Hob replied she was just a civilian during her suspension and would be arrested if she fired it, she responded that she'd keep that in mind before exiting the room.

Toragay Serial Killings
"What was my sister doing in this town? You too." "You know how the lord of this town died last month, right? She seems to have been suspicious about the matter. It might be murder."

- Heidemarie and Ayn

Heidemarie then journeyed to Elphegort; after she arrived two days later, the officer travelled to Toragay and arrived at noon. Deciding to apologize to the innkeeper for her earlier disturbance and headed for the inn. Seeing three people working, she recognized Ayn assisting a master carpenter with fixing the broken window. After greeting him, Heidemarie watched the man finish handing off the wood to the carpenter, ignoring her. She then asked what he was doing and the constable finally answered it was construction, noting that helping the people was part of police work.

When Heidemarie chuckled that he had no free time, Ayn pointedly inquired who was responsible for that before questioning whether she was back to continue her investigation. Once she admitted she was suspended from the case and came to see her sister, the puzzled constabled wondered why she was still wearing her uniform and Heide plainly replied that it was her only clothes. After Ayn lamented her unchanging, unwomanly demeanor, the officer asked where her sister was, questioning if she was in the inn.

After Ayn explained she'd left for Lucifenia to consult Dr. Puerick Rogzé about the results of something she wanted tested, Heidemarie stated she'd join her and began to leave when the constable stopped her; he then told her that she might miss her and that it would be better if she stayed since she'd return by nightfall. When he questioned if that was the only reason she came, Heidemarie remembered her intention to apologize to the innkeeper and affirmed that he was correct. After Ayn inferred her thought and confirmed the innkeeper was out at the moment, Heidemarie asked what Ayn and Hanne were doing in town.

She then listened as the constable explain Hanne's investigation into Marquis Kaspar Blankenheim's death, suspecting murder. Seeing Ayn and two workers sit for a break, Heidemarie sat down with them and questioned it being "murder". Ayn then clarified Hanne's belief Kaspar's wife Margarita was involved buy couldn't meet her while she was visiting her father in Aceid for the past three days. Noting that Margarita's father was also ill, Heidemarie learned that his symptoms were the same as the Marquis' and she went silent, playing with a pebble with her foot.

She then asked what Ayn was doing there and he explained he was officially handling the case's post-processing while discreetly investigating the black market; inferring he referred to the illegal trading of Freezis Fairy Tales among other rare goods, Ayn related that he was looking into it by himself since the higher ups stopped the investigation into the one in Toragay. When Heidemarie then querried whether he had any results, the constable proudly admitted he determined both the trading location for its activities and the boss dealer.

Once he quietly told her Kaspar was likely the one in charge, the surprised Heidemarie pointed out he was dead and Ayn shared that the black market in Toragay had closed shop while a remaining dealer had informed the constable of it opening in a new location. Asking where it was, Ayn told the officer it was north of the town when they noticed a bunch of people moving toward the west side of town. Hearing the noise from the area, Heidemare questioned what was wrong and the constable got up and said he'd check it out and she agreed to join him.

Following him over to the large crowd gathered outside the Charity Institute, they pushed through the crowd and witnessed the director woman screaming beside a group of children seemingly asleep. As woman screamed at Heidemarie to help, the officer noted she was technically off duty and the woman exclaimed this wasn't the time to worry about such things. After Ayn examined the children, Heidemarie questioned his results and learned they had the same symptoms as Dr. Felix and the Marquis. Noticing a man pouring medicine into the children's room, she asked who he was and learned it was Egmont, watching as Ayn discussed getting a proper doctor for the children.

As Ayn resolved to fetch a doctor from Aceid, he instructed Heidemarie to watch the children and she obliged, nodding. She then witnessed Rita panic over the children's deaths before suddenly going silent; watching helplessly as Egmont failed to wake the dead woman, Heidemarie silently prayed for the Charity Institute Director and children when Egmont screamed. Later that day, Ayn returned and told Heide that he'd seen Margarita in Aceid when trying to fetch a doctor. She also received from him a map of Elphegort, marked out with the suspected new center of the black market.

Arrested Development
"Two days ago, twenty-four people at Toragay's charity institute had died. Most of them children. Oh, such a tragedy, isn't it? This event occurred when you, Heidemarie, happened to come to town. Based on the situation, there's no doubt you are the culprit!"

- Bruno's false accusation

Later that day, Heidemarie was approached by men in black and they informed her that Shaw Freezis had passed away that morning and she was needed at the Freezis Foundation's headquarters in Marlon. Agreeing to see her "greate-grandfather", Gumillia followed her escorts back to Marlon, arriving in Bariti two days later. After the officer met with Shaw's chief aide, Bruno Marlon, the group waited in front of the foundation headquarters until Hanne arrived.

Once Hanne noted she came too, Heide prepared to reply when Bruno interrupted, directing them through the back entrance, saying he assumed they didn't want to be seen by all the other gathered relatives too much. Following Hanne and Bruno, Heidemarie approached Shaw's lifeless body and watched as Hanne knelt before the coffin, mourning for the dead Foundation head. Standing outwardly composed, Heidemarie remained silent when Bruno commented on the two's respective reactions.

When Bruno denied Hanne's inference they'd have to leave out back to avoid being seen and began laughing menacingly, Heidemarie noticed the men in black surrounding them at gunpoint; after the aide announced the two would be imprisoned, she listened as his explanation that he would use his authority as the Foundation's "Bruno" to have the World Police arrest him. After Hanne asked Heidemarie if she knew whether the men in black were part of the World Police, the officer shook her head and said she didn't.

Once Bruno related they were a secret department existing in the shadows and had Hanne suspected of being the "Elluka Clockworker" responsible for the Lioness Burning Incident, the man turned to Heidemarie and accused the officer of being the culprit in the deaths at the Charity Institute, arrested as a material witness. As the men in black restrained circled around the two to restrain them, Heide pulled out her fireworks gun and fired at one of them, sending him flying into the nearby wall.

Relating that the man probably wasn't dead but may have broken bones, she brandished the weapon in her right hand. As the men in black panicked over her strange weapon and surrounded her, Heidemarie heard Bruno curse Hob for not removing the gun as he had instructed. She then listened as he told the men to hurry and not alert the relatives with the gunfire. After raising her weapon at them, Heidemarie heard Hanne order her to stop and held back, reminding her Shaw was "asleep" and that they shouldn't be too noisy.

Heidemarie stated she understood and lowered her revolver before the men in black immediately tackled and restrained her, confiscating her weapon. The two bounded women then listened as Bruno explained to Hanne that he intended to consolidate the Freezis Foundation even if it meant allying with scoundrels. Confirming he referred to Père Noël, the Freezis executive declared he was promised to become the new "Second Dealer" should he have the two of them disposed of. The two were then taken out the back door per Bruno's order.

Return of the Mages
Taken to the World Police headquarters' prison, Heidemarie was locked in a cell adjacent to Hanne and remained silent until Hanne asked if she was awake. When the officer confirmed she was, she listened to Elluka inquire about the deaths at the Charity Institute.

She explained how it had happened while Hanne was in Lucifenia, and that when she had rushed over everyone was asleep. In response to Hanne's horror, she reiterated that both the adults and children were dead. As Hanne bemoaned having let more people die, her sister added that she wasn't the killer.

The officer listened as Hanne affirmed that their charges were just Bruno's concoction, while also adding there was someone responsible for putting the people to sleep. Heide then asked who it was; hearing Hanne's suspicion it was Margarita, she pointed out that the girl wasn't in Toragay that day. Hanne then asked if she could have returned secretly and Heidemarie stated she didn't think so, explaining how Ayn had seen her in Aceid himself.

After a silence between the two, Heide heard Hanne ask if she was ready to get out soon. Puzzled, Heide repeated the question and Hanne clarified that they would get out of the prison, to which the officer reminded her that her gun was confiscated. As her sister stated such things weren't necessary for them and laughed, Heide asked if she was okay and was told that, with Shaw Freezis dead and the two of them in this situation, there was no need to fake their identities. Heide remained silent as Hanne continued that there was no need to be the great-grandchildren of Shaw Freezis and then said she knew.

Heide and Hanne both were cut off as two figures entered the prison, Hanne recognizing one as Ayn, and their cells were unlocked. Recognizing the other figure as Hob, Heide spoke his name aloud and watched when he handed her the confiscated fireworks gun. She slowly noted that she thought he was on Bruno's side and listened when he told her he couldn't allow such the abuse of justice being carried out.

Remarking on this and smiling, Heide was cut off by Ayn stating it was impossible for her to be responsible for the deaths at the Charity Institute, as well as it being impossible for Hanne to be responsible for the Lioness Burning Incident. After he explained to the two how Toragay's situation was growing desperate, Hanne stopped him before he could lead them out of the prison and Heidemarie saw her signaling to her. Silently nodding, Heidemarie knocked out Hob and and watched Hanne reveal herself to Ayn before knocking him out against the wall.

Heide then followed Hanne back to her home in Aceid and changed back into her former apprentice clothes while Hanne washed off her hair dye nearby. After her master returned and dressed in her former mage robes, Heide asked "Hanne" if they would be going soon. As she reminded Gumillia that it wasn't necessary to call her Hanne anymore, Gumillia she suggested they leave, calling her Elluka.

Pursuit of Margarita
Heading with Elluka to Aceid, Gumillia followed her to the hospital where Marx was being treated to meet with Margarita, and the two of them learned that she had already left. After questioning the doctor on her whereabouts, Elluka fretted over the seriousness of the situation and Gumillia offered the map of Elphegort she had borrowed from Ayn. Pointing out the X mark Ayn had made over Calgaround, Gumillia watched as her master mused over this information and thanked her, claiming they may now be able to solve everything. Pointing out she should be thanking Ayn, Gumillia then listened to Elluka's suggestion they visit him after the business was over with.

The two were then cut off by Dr. Felix waking from his coma. Gumillia watched as Elluka attempted to question the doctor, who began to babble about a doll before falling off the bed in a convulsing fit and dying. Fretfully calling to Elluka, Gumillia heard her claim that he cleared up one thing and asked what it was; asked if she remembered the Clockworker's Doll, Gumillia confirmed it and remarked how it was made to look like Michaela, before correcting herself and stating it was made to look like Eve.

Asked if she had also met Margarita, Gumillia admitted she hadn't yet and was told that she also looked like Eve, among multiple other people; Elluka then stated her conviction that Margarita had contracted with a Demon of Sin. As Gumillia began to speak on her fears, Elluka cut her off and declared they had no choice but to kill the Marchioness, to which her apprentice asked if she was sure. After Elluka confirmed there was no other option, the two mages left for Calgaround.

Before reaching the town, the two were stopped by the World Police's erected barricade between Toragay and Aceid. Seeing Toragay's coachman struggling to get into the town and save his mother, Gumillia intervened with her fireworks gun as the officers prepared to arrest him. She was then stopped as Elluka blew the officers back with a wind and then demanded they go.

Although protesting, the girl accompanied her master, along with the coachman, out of range of the police officers. After Elluka convinced the coachman to take them to Calgaround, the two mages road with him over a shortcut east of the mountain and arrived in the town, stopping outside the mayor's mansion.

Confrontation at the Plateau
Approaching the mansion, Gumillia followed Elluka inside and were greeted by the mayor, Julia Abelard. She then witnessed Elluka confronting Julia, who revealed her connection to Père Noël well as Margarita and Kaspar's places in the organization. She then learned from Shadow of how Margarita had refined several versions of the Gift, using one to kill Kaspar and making an epidemic with the sixth variant.

As the two other mages debated, Gumillia cut in and asked if Fifth Pierrot was in the mansion as well. Julia apologized to the apprentice, explaining that he had already left but that, if she were killed, they could free his captive held in the basement. Gumillia coldly noted how the woman was previously so talkative; when she retorted she'd spent enough time answering questions and began to say it wouldn't matter because they'd be dead, Gumillia finished the sentence for her and asked if she planned to say that. After a silence, Julia noted she was right and the three women prepared for battle.

As Elluka attempted to attack with a tornado, Julia easily snuffed it out and noted Elluka's use of nature to empower her spells; when she asked Gumillia if she had a similar arsenal, the former spirit remained silent. As Elluka and Julia continued to attack, Gumillia made a hole in the mansion wall and began using the rain to empower her magic; when the villainous mage attempted to burn her and Elluka, Gumillia used a water spell to put the fire out. After her master called to her, she receded the muddy water and turned it back to rain.

Noticing that Julia's cat was absent, Gumillia asked where it was and heard Elluka exclaim that she wasn't that mage. Seeing "Julia" fall silent, the former spirit asked why she was before "Julia" revealed her true identity as Fourth Shadow, the second-in-command in Père Noël, as well as the "Elluka" that was responsible for the Lioness Burning Incident and Margarita's friend.

When the newly revealed Shadow prepared to attack again, Gumillia made use of her fireworks gun and magic as she dueled the other mage. Failing to kill her using the Clockwork Secret Art, she then saw Shadow attempt to escape through the hole in the wall and followed her outside; there, she began to manipulate the greeonian plateau roses, making them grow larger and wrap around Shadow. As her opponent attempted to escape, Gumillia made the roses to wrap around her tighter and burrow their roots into her flesh, until the Shadow was eventually killed.

With the false Julia dead, Gumillia and Elluka reentered the mansion and went to the second floor to confront Margarita. She watched as her master attempted to reason with the girl to create a cure for the Gift and, as she drank the poison, attempted to save her from its effects. After witnessing Margarita die, Gumillia put a hand on Elluka's shoulder as she sat before her dead body. As she then stood and said they would need to head back to Toragay, Gumillia refused, pointing out that Rin Chan still hadn't been rescued, and Elluka reluctantly lead them down to the mansion's basement.

Once there, Gumillia and Elluka caught sight of the bound Rin Chan and quickly released her. Extending her hand, Gumillia suggested they leave to send the idol back to Rolled, only for the girl to decline and cite she didn't want to go back to Rolled due to her lip-syncing scandal. Alarmed to learn that the allegations had been true, Gumillia stood in shock and failed to notice Sixth Venom enter into the room.

Seeing the Père Noël Member stab Elluka, Gumillia cried out and shot at the man, only for him to deflect her attack with his sword. Shooting at him again as he made his exit, Gumillia's attack tore the cloth the man wore around his head and she saw his long purple hair before he departed up the steps. Returning to the wounded Elluka, Gumillia quickly brought her to the coachman waiting outside, who carried them to the hospital in Aceid. Sometime after Elluka was admitted, Gumillia learned of another Julia Abelard in the Lucifenian aristocracy.

Formation of a Cure
After Elluka had sufficiently recovered, she and Gumillia set out with the coachman to the Gift-ridden Toragay, and Gumillia rode further to Calgaround. Investigating the mayor's mansion, Gumillia found no trace of the Clockworker's Doll or Margarita's corpse and was forced to return to Toragay empty-handed. Entering the city, the apprentice approached Elluka and apologized for making her wait.

The sorceress thanked her for her hard work and asked what she discovered, to which Gumillia reported that the vessel and Margarita were gone. As Elluka thanked her again, Gumillia said there was one more thing and continued on to related what she learned about Julia. She listened silently as Elluka noted their next destination was to take a closer look at Père Noël and agreed to travel to Lucifenia.

As they were about to leave, the two of them were stopped by the coachman, who came to tell them of how his mother and many other members of the town were entirely missing. Hearing voices from the direction of Blankenheim Manor, Gumillia asked if the other two heard the noise and gestured to her ears. Pointing in the direction of the town, Gumillia followed Elluka and the coachman as they approached the estate and entered into the manor's basement; she then witnessed their discovery of the survivors from the Gift epidemic, as well as Egmont's use of a mysterious medicine to fight Gift's effects.

Learning that the medicine was made from sap from the new Millennium Tree distributed by Père Noël, Elluka and Gumillia contacted Puerick Rogzé and went to the Millennium Tree Forest, bypassing the examinations carried out by the Sisters of Clarith by using an animal path related to them by Egmont. Gumillia then watched as Elluka met with Puerick at the site of the New Millennium Tree, discussing the possibility of forming its sap into a cure for Gift.

After Puerick left, Gumillia remarked on how stupid Père Noël was in their poison being cured by their medicine, only for Elluka to note that may have been their aim. Asking her what she meant, she listened as Elluka described how the mysterious epidemic would break out with the medicine to cure it only being known by Père Noël, Gumillia finishing her sentence. As Elluka continued that they could monopolize the remedy, her apprentice asked if Egmont's nutritional drugs were only a prototype and Elluka confirmed it might be so.

Then, as Elluka greeted the tree Michaela beside them, Gumillia heard her friend complain about Puerick taking her sap and reminded her that it was to save human lives. She then watched as Michaela and Elluka debated the issue and then discussed their progress as of late, before seeing her master fall deep into thought. Gumillia then caught sight of Margarita Blankenheim standing nearby in the forest and her jaw dropped as she stared at the girl.

She then watched Elluka leave to go meet with Margarita and waited by Michaela for some time. When Elluka finally returned alone, the apprentice asked what had occurred with Margarita, only for her master to chastise her, using hypnosis to suggest to her that Margarita had died in Shadow's mansion. Gumillia then left the forest with Elluka and headed to Lucifenia.

Père Noël
Once there, Gumillia and Elluka posed as an employee of a brothel and its owner, respectively, and maintained the business while in the process harboring the escaped Yuzette Ora, the previous Seventh Magician under the alias of Isabel Ishmael. In February of EC 610, after Isabel was killed and Elluka met with Julia Abelard, Elluka called Gumillia in to introduce her as her escort. As she did, the girl pretended to be hypnotized by her master for Julia's benefit; when Elluka patted her on the back, she bowed and greeted the head of Père Noël.

She then stood by and watched as Elluka infiltrated the organization while pretending to be Eve Moonlit, becoming codenamed Eighth Sniper while Elluka was codenamed Seventh Magician. On September 2nd, when Elluka planned to offer Lemy a chance to escape Gumillia waited with her in the brothel, standing behind her master's chair when Lemy arrived. She stood silently by until the boy rejected her offer and wheeled Elluka away.

After Lemy outed Elluka as a traitor to Père Noël, Gumillia aided her master in her escape from assassination, later laying low with her while the serial murders began again in Rolled under Fifth Pierrot. That December, in order to bait Fifth Pierrot she wrote a message to Ayn telling him to meet her at the Abelard estate early the next morning. Waiting for him in hiding around two in the morning, she then saw Ayn arrive and wait for her before eventually checking out an alley nearby where Fifth Pierrot was waiting. As Fifth Pierrot leaped on Ayn and raised his knife to stab the investigator, Gumillia shot the boy with her revolver and watched him die.

At some point, Gumillia also broke her hypnosis and realized that Elluka had absorbed Eve and in the process regained all of her memories as Levia, while also learning Julia's true identity. In late January, as Père Noël broke down and Julia fled, Elluka received a letter from Julia, revealing herself to be Irina Clockworker. Gumillia later accompanied her master to the Abelard estate to try finding their nemesis' vessels of sin.

After Elluka hypnotized a police officer to allow them access, Gumillia wheeled her inside the mansion and to the estate treasury; seeing it empty, Gumillia shook her head as she remarked on them being missing. She soon after asked Elluka what they would do now, hearing her reply they would do as they intended and answer the challenge that Julia sent them. Gumillia then left with Elluka to go on a carriage ride to Merrigod Plateau, where Julia was waiting.

The Duel of Merrigod Plateau
During the ride, After Elluka spoke with the coachman, Gumillia asked her about the letter's sender, Irina Clockworker, and was told by her master about how it was her sister-in-law. Asking her then when she'd noticed, Gumillia heard Elluka claim it was when she got the letter and stared in her face; she then said she was lying and cited she would have known it when she absorbed Eve. She then began to speak up again, to which Elluka asked if she hadn't only had one question. Her apprentice clarified that it wasn't a question and reported, pointing, that Gatt was outside their carriage.

Gumillia then watched as the lieutenant faced off against Elluka after stopping their carriage, stepping back when her master told her to do so and seeing her defeat him easily with Eve's powers. After arranging to have Gatt taken into custody, the two walked up the slope towards Calgaround. As Elluka instructed her to hold Grim the End confiscated off Gatt, she took the vessel of sin into her robe and continued wheeling the other mage, although muttering that it didn't suit her.

Although Elluka assured her that she could battle Irina even without it, her apprentice wondered if she will have gotten stronger and listened as she was told that the enemy mage's medium would be unpredictable as Germaine's body. Coming to the top of the hill, Gumillia mused that it had been a while since they went to Calgaround and wondered if Irina would be in the city. After hearing Elluka reply that if she wasn't in the city they could check another place, Gumillia wondered where that place was and was told Apocalypse Cliff, the tomb of Pale Noël, was a possibility.

After failing to find Irina in Calgaround Gumillia traveled to Apocalypse Cliff and entered Pale's tomb. Finding Irina inside, the two prepared to duel with the red cat mage. Hearing a boy suddenly cry out towards Irina, Gumillia turned along with her and Elluka to stare at the child, the supposedly dead Lemy Abelard, in shock. Standing by, Gumillia listened as Irina explained how contractors of the Demons of Sin were unable to be killed by normal means. Afterwards, as Lemy attempted to charge at Elluka, Gumillia stood in his way and shot the boy in the chest for a second time.

She then watched as the wound began to heal and remarked that he was like a dead soldier, correcting herself in that he had an even greater recovery power. Pulling out all her bullets and replacing them with her magical ammunition, she fired again and knocked Lemy back several feet. As he stood up again, Gumillia realized even magic bullets were useless and then saw flames approaching her from Irina. Saved by Elluka, she pointed her gun at Lemy and prepared to fire again, while Elluka prepared to face off against Irina.

Holding the golden key in her other hand, Gumillia spent the next two hours trying to defeat Lemy, making use of the the Clockwork Secret Art and inscriptions runes as she fired repeatedly at the child. Despite her efforts, the boy continued to get back up and interfere with the battle with his regenerative healing powers. As she fought, she heard a voice remark that she was having a hard time. Dismissing it as an auditory hallucination, she kept firing at Pierrot.

As the voice demanded she respond, Gumillia asked who it was and was asked by the voice if she recognized him. The girl tersely replied she didn't know him; as the voice mused on how she had lost her memories of the Second Period, she determined that the voice was coming from Grim the End and recognized it aloud as the Demon of Wrath. Told she was correct, Gumillia asserted she wasn't acquainted with any demon, only for the voice to insist that both Demons and spirits were once the same.

Stating she was busy, the former spirit tried to brush the demon off, only for it to comment she was being sloppy and wouldn't last much longer. Snapping she couldn't help that she was struggling, she heard the voice remind her that there was a way to kill him and she guessed that he meant by making a contract. Gumillia refused as Lemy leapt at her, deflecting his knife were her gun barrel. When the demon insisted he'd make a "special offer" and have the contract be temporary, Gumillia stubbornly stated she couldn't trust the voice.

Continuing to refuse in the face of the demon's persuasion, she finally acquiesced after hearing his arguments and acknowledging she had no choice. Contracting with the Demon of Wrath, she turned Grim the End into a bullet and loaded it into the chamber. Taking aim, she said goodbye to "Fifth Pierrot" and fired, killing Lemy once and for all.

As Julia cradled her dead son and sobbed, the former forest spirit then spoke to the demon again and asked him what his name was; she heard the voice say that his name when he had been human was Seth Twiright. She then watched as Elluka confronted the defeated Julia and the sorceress released her medium, coming out as her red cat form. When an explosion shot through the cave from Irina's black box, Gumillia held on to the nearby rocks until she lost consciousness.

Outside of the Sin
Regaining consciousness, Gumillia found herself in a temple comparable to the kind she had seen in Divine Levianta. Starting up the stairs, she eventually reached the top and found herself in a square with a giant pen-shaped pillar in the middle. Soon after, she spotted a young woman with red hair and clothes; as she spoke, Gumilla recognized the voice as Irina's and mused that this was her true form. Irina confirmed it, and Gumillia heard her say that the other three would soon come and that they would then get started.

As she waited, Gumillia watched an apparent woman in a maid outfit greet her by name; saying she didn't know them, she heard the woman muse that she had lost her memories of the Second Period and then call Irina a Ghoul Child made by Seth imitating the process for making humans. The former forest spirit attempted to ask Irina what the newcomer was speaking of, before another person was announced. Seeing the woman with green pigtails, she quickly recognized her as Eve Moonlit. She then spotted the final arrival, a woman with blonde bobbed hair and a lab coat.

Demanding to know the meaning of this place and the people within it, Gumillia then asked where Elluka was and was bluntly told by Irina that she was dead. Faltering, the girl quickly surmised she was killed in the explosion before being cut off again by Irina, the other girl telling her that she had killed Elluka hundreds of years ago. Realizing that Irina knew the truth about "Elluka Clockworker" as well, she heard Irina tell her that her former master was the woman in the lab coat.

At last, Gumillia approached the former "Elluka Clockworker" and asked her if she had remembered everything. After she nodded, the former spirit put a hand to her cheek and mused that this was her, Elluka's, true form, before correcting herself to say the god's true name, Levia. As Levia moved away from her and walked towards the Sin Ark and spoke with Irina, Gumillia followed and saw her reflection in the surface, unable to recognize herself in her true form. She then listened as Levia and Irina discussed how the latter had realized the truth and how Held had known all along.

As Levia then turned to Gumillia, remarking on how she was the "watchdog" Held had sent with her on her quest, the girl nodded and affirmed it. Beginning to explain her orders to her former master, as Levia guessed that she had been ordered to seal her if she ever regained her memories the former forest spirit faltered and began to cry as Levia stroked her head. Hearing her say that she was a wonderful apprentice, Gumillia gave a choked response and hugged Levia as she sobbed.

When asked, Gumillia also explained how Held had saved a copy of their memories and handed them over to bypass the rule of a being losing their memories on reincarnation, as well as how it had adversely affected Michaela and caused her fever. She then stood by and was also transported into the Court along with everyone else as Irina unfolded her plan to destroy everything related to the gods.

After seeing Irina address the woman in a maid outfit as Behemo, the former forest spirit was shocked and protested that Behemo was supposed to be a boy, learning from Levia that he was cross-dressing. Moving on quickly, Gumillia questioned Irina trying to take vengeance out on Levia when it wouldn't fix anything; hearing the sorceress exclaim she was destroying everything about the gods as a punishment to them for their negligence, fulfilling her purpose as an HER, Gumillia asked if any of that was her own will.

Irina quickly shut her up and prepared to commence the duel; shortly after, Gumillia witnessed Banica's arrival into the Court. Taking up the duel, she witnessed the clash between Levia, Banica, Eve, and Irina, knocked into the Hellish Yard shortly after.

Encounters in the Hellish Yard
Coming to in bare, unfamiliar surroundings, Gumillia approached an old man nearby and asked him where she was. Told she was in the Hellish Yard, the shocked Gumillia then listened as the man pointed out the door to safely reach heaven and asked him if he couldn't go with her. Hearing that he could go to heaven but chose not to out of shame for his crimes, the former forest spirit wondered if even those who'd sinned could go into heaven. She learned from the man that the Hellish Yard was currently abandoned and all souls given free reign to go as they wished.

Moving on, Gumillia asked if there were any newcomers and was told to head to the door to heaven. Bowing to the old man, the girl took her leave of him and walked to a bridge leading to the door, spotting Behemo trampling on a mask. Approaching him, she asked if he was dead too and Behemo replied that the impact of the duel simply blew him here. Gumillia then asked about the mask; as Behemo picked it up and the mask greeted her, she recognized the Demon of Wrath, Seth Twiright, aloud and learned that he was a species of sentient mask.

Listening to Behemo's explanation of how they'd been knocked into the Hellish Yard from the duel, Gumillia heard Seth remark that an "other guy" had safely escaped their predicament and asked him who he was speaking of. After receiving his explanation, Gumillia asked Behemo where Levia, Irina, Eve, and the Demon of Gluttony were and was told he didn't know what happened to them. The girl asked how they get out of the Hellish Yard and heard Behemo's suggestion they go to heaven and ask Held.

Following Behemo as he was about to pass, and watching him set the Demon of Wrath down at his own request, Gumillia tried to enter and was burned by the light of the other world, forced to draw back. As Behemo questioned if she was coming, Gumillia explained it was too hot and heard the god muse that it was because only the dead could enter the Heavenly Yard. In response, she pointed out the god's own living condition and Behemo replied that gods were special.

Asking if there was really no way to get to the ground world from hell, Gumillia heard that the Master of the Hellish Yard would know, but that she wasn't there. Asking where she was, the girl learned that Levia was the Master, and that Gumillia's leaving depended on her coming to hell. Hearing the mask Seth laugh, Gumillia trampled on it and told Behemo she would wait for her master to come pick her up.

Hearing Behemo laugh and remark that his sister might indeed come pick her up, Gumillia asked what he meant and heard the explanation of how Levia's and his original intention was to destroy the ground world. Asking if he still wished to do so, she was told after a while that he no longer had the will to destroy humanity.

As Behemo left, Gumillia heard him remark in passing that there was a miasma in hell that would eat away at her soul; startled, she called in vain for Behemo to wait and then heard Seth laughing again as he left. Annoyed, she asked the mask why he was laughing when he was also in the heart of the miasma and listened as Seth mused he should begin research to stop the miasma. Lifting her foot, she listened to Seth propose that she be his limbs from now on since he had no mobility as a mask. Thinking about it for a time, she asked if that was really their only means and heard Seth reply that, if it was too much trouble to carry him, she could wear him.

As Seth insisted he wouldn't take over her body, Gumillia uttered that she couldn't trust him; reminded of how he kept his promise when she fought Lemy, she reluctantly agreed, putting on the mask. Seeing that she could see through both eyes despite the mask blocking one, she remarked on her surprise and heard Seth explain that he was able to do this as well as let her see in the dark and read minds. Prompted by Seth, the girl then went to search for research materials in the Hellish Yard.

Personality and Traits
"I'm older than you so use honorifics. For anyone who's older than you, use honorifics."

- Gumillia's strict expectations for respect

In contrast to Michaela, Gumillia acted 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 expressed what she was thinking and was dedicated to work; despite this, she was also caring and sympathetic, comforting Michaela when no one else would and showing concern for Elluka's treatment of Held. 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. While Elluka resided in Gumillia's body, the sorceress greatly influenced her apprentice's personality, causing Gumillia to take up many of Elluka's habits and traits.

Skills and Abilities
"She’s doing great. If she continues on like this, she should be able to use Clockwork Magic in the next six months or so. She really is a smart girl."

- Elluka regarding Gumillia's impressive progress

As a forest spirit, Gumillia was immortal, able to heal from any wound almost instantly while in Held'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 Clockwork 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
Held: Gumillia's creator. Gumillia respected Held greatly and often occasionally carry out his commands among the other spirits, as well as respecting them herself, no matter how puzzling. She also was fiercely protective of the god whenever he was threatened. Despite this, she decided it was best to leave Held behind to remain human, although Gumillia still looked to him for guidance and aid in her future endeavors.

Elluka Clockworker: Gumillia's mentor. Gumillia was initially incensed at Elluka's mistreatment of Held and was apathetic towards her lackadaisical nature. Despite this, she became deeply loyal to the sorceress and paid close attention under her tutelage, following Elluka through all her endeavors over the centuries, dedicated to their goal of collecting all the sins and careful to keep her in line.

Irina Clockworker: Gumillia's enemy and later superior. While also warned about Irina by Held, Gumillia saw her as an enemy of Elluka and opposed her accordingly, although not always aware of her true identity under the sorceress' aliases. While joining Père Noël under her command, Gumillia was especially careful in following her alias I. Santa's orders in order to deceive her, but remained disloyal to her.

Michaela: A fellow forest spirit and friend. Gumillia took a very protective role towards Michaela whenever the latter was upset or in danger, the two having become very close as spirits. Gumillia continued to look after her while in Lucifenia, sending the Green Onion with Allen so they could communicate; after her death, Gumillia jealously guarded her remains and became anxious when no longer able to care for her.

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, although 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, this uneasiness only subsiding after some time.

Yukina Freezis: Gumillia's travel companion. Gumillia saw Yukina as a cute child and tagged along as her playmate when staying in the Freezis 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 and would act without thinking of how it would affect the girl, such as leaving without any prior notice.

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.

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.
