Gumina Glassred

Gumi (by Cherubim)
Lady of Lust

"*Something like that. That way I can invite some more men into my harem.*"
―Lady Gumina Glassred
**Gumina Glassred** was a lady of the Beelzenian Empire, governing the territory of Asmodean. Despised for her deformed appearance and rejected by her close friend and crush, Cherubim, Gumina slaughtered her family and forged a contract with the Demon of Lust. After becoming the main lady of the household, Gumina abducted and defiled numerous men using her dark and enchanting powers.

## History

### Early Life

"*The jail is dark. I want to go outside.*"
―Gumina's diary
The currently unnamed Gumina was born to Claster and his wife in Lasaland, Asmodean, in EC 113. Born with a small face on her right cheek, her mother committed suicide and her father, believing her a "demon child," imprisoned her in their mansion's basement. Treated as non-existent, the girl grew up in her cell with no company but her guard, although Marquis Claster occasionally visited to briefly talk with the guard. Later on, that guard taught the child how to write, and she learned about other basic things in the world, such as the sun.

On October 1, the child began to keep a diary and regularly wrote about her miserable circumstances, slowly improving her literacy under the guard's tutelage and yearning to go outside. Later on, she learned about the Evillious Calendar and began including years in her diary entries' dates. On July 19, EC 123, the deformed child was discovered by a boy, Sateriasis; since then, the boy began to regularly visit her, offering her amenities and telling hrr stories about the outside world. Eventually, Sateriasis snuck the girl out of the mansion the night of September 7, with the complicity of the guard.

Since then, Sateriasis began regularly sneaking his friend out of the mansion to see the outside world, taking her through Lasaland's Workshop Street on October 10. On October 16, the friends ran into Sateriasis's younger brother Cherubim during their outings and, once he promised not to tell on them, the three played together. Over the years, the three often snuck out of the mansion to play at Workshop Street; the girl who would become Gumina regularly watched the blacksmiths work, while Cherubim watched an old painter and Sateriasis saw the Gine Workshop make dolls.

Eventually, Sateriasis convinced Claster to free his friend, and she became a servant of the mansion named "Gumina". Although reviled by everyone else for her appearance, Gumina continued to be friends with Sateriasis and Cherubim, although over time envying her friend's beautiful face and popularity. Around the early EC 130s, Gumina posed for a portrait by the old painter from Workshop Street, hiding her deformity behind her long bangs. Once the painting was complete, Gumina kept it in her quarters in the attic.

### Angel to Demon

"*Yes. I am fine with this. That is proof of the contract. I have surely accepted this blood, filled with your desire. Come, shall we dance?*"
―The Demon of Lust
In December of EC 135, Gumina learned she was betrothed to Sateriasis. Devastated, she approached Cherubim at a party to confess her love to him; before she could make her confession, Cherubim cruelly broke off their friendship and mocked her "ugly" face. Heartbroken and humiliated, Gumina was overcome with rage. The next day, she took a sword and slaughtered her father, stepmother, betrothed and the entire staff. After her fury subsided, she was overcome with guilt and prepared to commit suicide with her sword.

Before she could kill herself, Gumina was approached by a woman in a dark cloak, and she explained her miserable situation to her. The mysterious woman offered a katana from her robe and instructed her to impale herself on it instead, in order to make a contract with the demon inside it. Although skeptical, as she exchanged her sword for the new blade Gumina heard the voice of the Demon of Lust and became convinced the woman spoke the truth. Impaling herself on the katana, Gumina forged a contract with the Demon of Lust and was filled with its magic, turning her blood green.

After introducing herself, the mage explained that she now had the power to seduce men with her gaze, manipulate memories, change faces, and transform herself. Agreeing to use the demon's power to seduce men, Gumina was allowed to keep the vessel of sin and, with it, she changed her face to get rid of the second face. When they discovered that there had been a witness to her crime, the mage taught Gumina how to perform an amplification ritual to invoke the sword's memory-wiping power on either sex within the area.

Hastily and improperly performing the ritual, Gumina unintentionally wiped her own memories of herself as well as the target's. Amnesiac, Gumina believed herself to be the only survivor of her family's massacre. In response, the Beelzenian Empire had Gumina succeed her father as Marchioness of Asmodean, although having Duke Iliotte Venomania manage Asmodean while she recovered from her memory loss. Horrified by her new lustful urges, Gumina stayed secluded in the manor by herself. Later that month, she got into an argument with Iliotte over her seclusion.

### The Tailor of Mystica

"*Well then, look into my eyes.*"
―Gumina invokes her brainwashing power
During the Lasaland New Year Festival, Glassred, starving and filled with lust, instinctively left her mansion and meandered into the capital, where she collapsed. She was rescued by a man and awoke in his uncle's shop; as the man tended to her, she apologized for her strange behavior after her family's massacre, which had caused the citizens to believe she'd gone mad, and later formally introduced herself. When she prepared to leave, the man's uncle had him escort her back to her mansion after giving her a change in clothes.

After arriving at the mansion, Gumina suppressed herself from leering over the man and affirmed to him that she was living alone while she was unable to remember her family's murderer's face. She told him that she gone into the city because she had run out of food, and because she was looking for a man he barely recalled, an Asmodean. The man directed Gumina to ask her Asmodean uncle, Duke Iliotte Glassred, about it and she timidly described their argument.

As they continued to talk, Gumina ended up hiring the man to tailor her a new wardrobe, having him stay in a guest room at the mansion while he worked. The man worked late into the night over the next two weeks; one night, after being unable to find "her" own diary, Gumina found the man asleep at his work table and again had to resist the lust she felt towards him. She was then startled when he awoke terrified from a nightmare, before he apologized and returned home. Over the next five days, the man worked hard and completed her wardrobe.

By dawn, after the man gave the lady her last suit he tried to hurry to return to Mystica, evading Gumina's excuses for him to stay. Nonetheless, she insisted on seeing him off to the city gates. As they passed through town, Gumina noted the man's discomfort beside her and increased her speed towards the city gates. Once they reached the border, she tried to question the man on his behavior when he tried to leave, only for him to reject her and leave. Gumina was stunned as the man's words triggered her memory of Cherubim's own cruel rejection, and from there she remembered the massacre and the deal she made with the mage.

The mage suddenly approached her immediately after in her red cat body; once she confirmed that some of her memory had returned, Gumina expressed hesitance chasing after the departing man due to how far he'd already gone; reminded she could fly and threatened to hurry up, she telepathically conversed with the Demon of Lust asked for its assistance; sprouting wings, Gumina took flight and caught up with the man in the forest.

Giddy with lust, Glassred asked the horrified man for his hand in marriage and was surprised to learn he had already found out about her contract. As the man refused to be hers, Gumina completed her demonic transformation and invoked her powers on him, brainwashing him. Once the man had been enchanted to her will, Gumina kissed him passionately. They were suddenly interrupted when a handsome Marlon boy, Karchess Crim, stumbled on the scene and screamed at the sight of Saterasis' demon features.

### The Peasant Boy of Abito

"*You have such a cute face... Though it may just be the course of events, perhaps our meeting was destined.*"
―Gumina to Karchess
While she stood perplexed, the mage caught up to Gumina with her human body and scolded her for letting her demonic appearance be seen. Releasing the man, Gumina tried to nonchalantly brainwash Karchess as well, only to be taken aback when he remained unaffected and fled. As the mage pointed out it was too risky to chase after the boy during the day, Gumina headed back to the mansion with the mage and the brainwashed man to discuss their plans.

After she returned to the mansion with her first harem member, the mage instructed her further on how to use her powers. She also advised her to continually have intercourse with men, to avoid the wild lust she felt before. Over the next week, Gumina spent her time making love to the man, reluctantly moving him into the basement out of the public eye. Remembering only a few vague memories, Gumina received no answer from the mage on why she had murdered her family.

By February of EC 136, the mage used her extensive connections to track Karchess to the village of Abito and Gumina took a carriage with her there that morning. During the ride, Gumina had a nightmare of when Cherubim had scorned her; after she awoke, she talked with the mage about their travel and learned during the conversation that she was the only one who could understand her speech as a cat. She later became lost in thoughts over her memories before they arrived at the village of Abito. Still tired from her escapades with the man, as the carriage entered town Gumina considered her options eventually decided she'd have to keep him and his future "husbands" secret, since polygamy was outlawed in the Beelzenian Empire.

After the mage also promised to deal with the matter of the man's worried relatives soon, she and Gumina entered the village and met with its chief. Gumina was temporarily delayed by the extremely talkative chief while the mage went on on ahead. When she managed to catch up with her later, it was to find that she had already located Karchess. Gumina was surprised to find that the boy had stopped being afraid of her, having concluded that she was some kind of beautiful demon princess come to make him happy. Although ultimately failing in her second attempt to brainwash him, Karchess nonetheless agreed to come with her to her mansion.

Afterwards, at the mage's insistence Glassred went back to the mansion alone, while the mage stayed behind and led Karchess there under the cover of night. Later that night, the mage had Gumina perform the amplification ritual again in the basement, taking care not to wipe her memories again. With it, she wiped the memories of everyone in Lasaland and the surrounding villages of her encounter with the man and Karchess. Once she had confirmed it was successful, Gumina went to bed with her newest harem member.

### The Dancer of Lisa-A

"*I am Luke Eve.*"
"*...The dancer of Lisa-A, huh? Well, nice to meet you... So this makes three men.*"
―Luke and Irina
Gumina made love with Karchess over the following three days and nights, moving him into the basement with the man. Later on, Glassred heard about the alleged beauty of the star performer at the grand theater in Lisa-A, Luke Eve, and traveled to the town to see him in person. Attending the theater, she was captivated by his exotic appearance and decided to make him her third member. After the show, Glassred arranged to meet Luke backstage and, finding him to be gay, brainwashed him to fall for her.

After Glassred returned to her mansion in Lasaland, Luke joined him two days later as she had instructed and she brought him into the basement. They were greeted by Karchess, who had been given a new revealing suit by the man. After she introduced Luke to Karchess, and observing the frosty meeting between the two, Gumina brought him along to the kitchen where the man was cooking. Once she had introduced him to Luke, the man gave Glassred some old diary volumes he had found in the barred room deep in the basement. After she exchanged a few words with the man, Gumina led Luke out.

Next, she ended up introducing him to the mage, finding her in the middle of a project. After Luke and the mage exchanged pleasantries and Gumina quarreled briefly with the mage, she tried to learn more about what she was working on before she kicked her and Luke out. Gumina concluded the tour by bringing Luke to his bedroom and making love with him. Sometime afterwards, Gumina read through a little of the diary volumes the man had found; not remembering that they were her own, she became curious about the girl who had once been imprisoned in the mansion, before her thoughts returned to having sex.

Later on, Lady Glassred heard of a beautiful fortune teller living in Evunemi and traveled to meet him, Mirio Adi. Brainwashing him, Sateriasis had him join her a few days later at the mansion like the others and made love with the beautiful fake fortune teller. After she left his room, she encountered the mage in her red cat form, who indicated that the Duke Venomanis had come to visit; receiving the duke despite the late hour, Gumina directed him to the drawing room where they could talk. She was then shocked to find the duke accompanied by his son, Cherubim Venomania.

### The Childhood Friend

"*I remember his face. But anything more than that... I had even forgotten the fact that he was your son right up until we met face to face like this.*"
"*I see... But then, in that case it looks like I made the right call bringing him along.*"
―Gumina and Iliotte Venomania regarding Cherubim
Once Gumina, Cherubim, and Iliotte had all settled in the drawing room, Gumina listened to the duke report about the mysterious disappearance of men across Asmodean and was relieved to hear they were unsolved; Gumina explained in turn that her memories hadn't fully returned yet. Shortly after, she heard Iliotte say that Cherubim would be living with her from now on, shocked to find out he was her fiancé in light of her cold memories of him. Worried her harem would be discovered, she quickly convinced the duke not to force Cherubim to live with her, with the unwitting Cherubim's help.

Nonetheless, before he left Iliotte arranged for Gumina to meet with Cherubim again to help recover more of her memories. Three days later, in March, Lady Glassred met with Cherubim at the Venomania manor and they decided to have their date in Lasaland; as they were accompanied by Cherubim's servant, Carol Shields, Gumina slowly began to remember more about Cherubim. The three traveled to Lasaland, with Cherubim making small talk, and then arrived in Workshop Street. They walked through the street, Cherubim prompting Gumina with the things they used to do in their childhood.

Gumina searched her mansion that night until she found her portrait and read more of the diaries to confirm that this girl was the writer. Becoming instinctively disgusted by her own portrait, Gumina came to the conclusion that she hated her "fiancé"; remembering Cherubim's rejection, she came to the conclusion that Cherubim had chosen to be loyal to Sateriasis and that this caused her massacre.

Glassred decided to rage again and called out again to the Demon of Lust grant; transforming into her demonic form, Gumina flew to the Venomania Mansion and slaughtered the household as she searched for Cherubim. While she slaughtered the guards and servants, she encountered Carol Shields. When he tried to stop her progress, even attacking her with a sword, Glassred invoked her lust spell and brainwashed him. Carol then led her to the room her fiancé was hiding in, helping restrain him as she came inside. As Cherubim screamed and protested, Glassred seduced him with her magic.

### The Growing Harem

"*You are the lady of the Asmodean region. But in the end, that’s all you are.*"
―Irina
After taking her new harem members back to the mansion, Gumina performed the ritual to wipe out all memories of what happened at the Venomania estate from the local populace. Gumina then began keeping company with solely Cherubim; during the same period, she began leaving more and more to handle state affairs in the wake of Duke Venomania's breakdown from the tragedy that befell his manor. While returning from one of her political outings, she encountered the homeless Haku Netsuma in town and, reminded of the mage, brainwashed him to be the seventh member of her harem.

When she brought Haku home, Gumina was shocked to learn that Haku and the mage appeared to be acquainted. As the mage insisted she get rid of him, eventually admitting that Haku was the older brother of her human medium, the surprised lady entrusted Haku to the man before speaking with the mage further in private. She learned that the mage had burned down Haku and Haru Netsuma's village looking for the Venom Sword before she possessed Haru. Moving on, the mage requested for Gumina to seduce Marlon's king, Martius Marlon. Although uneasy, she listened as the maye explained that Martius had one of the seven vessels of sin.

Under the mage's repeated persuasion, Gumina was convinced to help with her request, if only to prevent herself from being eventually defeated and to continue growing her harem. The mage soon after came in and reported that Haku was given a room right next door to the mage; Gumina learned from the incensed sorceress that Haku's presence was causing Haru to rebel and prevent the mage from threatening Haku as she usually would. When the mage left, Gumina was shocked to learn from the man that Cherubim had hung her portrait in his room.

As she interrogated Cherubim, he told Gumina that he had Carol acquire the portrait from the attic. Furious, Glassred burned the portrait in the fireplace. Afterwards, she kissed Cherubim and then used her magic to wipe his memories of Sateriasis. Sometime after that she attacked King Martius's entourage in her demonic form, slaughtering the soldiers guarding him. As his escort Marquis Marcs Donald continued to assault her, the lady tore off his arms and then erased his memories of her attack. After seducing Martius, Glassred added Sonika Sonic, Lazuli Blue, and Priema Soap to her harem by early April.

### The Baker of Mystica

"*You don't have to be so respectful. I can't even get a clue on the disappearance cases. I'm incompetent.*"
―Lady Glassred
While she attended to her harem, the mage arrived to have Gumina accompany her to Mystica to find another vessel of sin. Before she left, she entrusted the mansion to the man, watched as the mage entrusted her human body to Karchess, and gave Cherubim a passionate kiss goodbye. With the mage's cat body in his coat, she arrived at the town and was directed to find an altar in the Misty Mountains. Entering the local bakery, Glassred met the handsome Leo Turner and tried to ask for directions to the mountains. After her presence was discovered by Leo's father, she had Leo escort the lady to the mountain range.

Chatting with Leo on the way, the conversation eventually turned to mentioning the recent disappearance cases and Glassred learned that Leo had been friends with the man before he joined her harem. Once they arrived at the foot of the mountain, Glassred gave an intimate farewell to the flustered boy and headed for the mountain range, taking the mage out of her coat. As she approached the altar in the mountain's ruins, the lady talked with the mage about how she hadn't even known that Leo was one of the man's childhood friends.

Arriving at the altar, she invoked her lust powers and opened a secret passage to a burial chamber. Inside, she found a spoon in a pile of treasure. Although believing it was a second vessel of sin, the mage corrected her that it was a magic tool made by her father and she quickly lost interest. She then departed from the tomb, planning to take shelter for the night with Marquis Ferdinand, who was himself investigating the disappearances.

While seeking refuge at the Ferdinand Mansion, the mage attached herself to his wife and Gumina massacred the rest of the household. The next day, she returned to the bakery and paid Leo's father to let her take Leo out for a stroll, before approaching and flirting with the boy himself. She then had Leo take her on a tour of the town, looking through the marketplace and then dancing together.

Later that day, Glassred returned to the mansion and met with the mage, who showed her Marquis Ferdinand's secret room full of Maylo Beelzenia's possessions. Spotting a portrait of Maylo, the lady became fascinated by his beauty and decided to acquire him. Several days since her outing with Leo, the lady bought him a lavish suit and had him visit her in the Ferdinand mansion that night.

Glassred stayed with Leo in one of the bedrooms and shared a passionate kiss with him, until he deduced she was the man's abductor after spotting his bracelet on her wrist. As Gumina tried to convince the boy to come with her willingly, she nonetheless ended up invoking her powers when he tried to flee. Shortly after she did, Leo's friend Rajih Assad entered and confronted her over the massacre of Ferdinand's household. Undergoing a demonic transformation, Gumina attacked Rajih and badly wounded him before shattering his weapon.

Although Rajih continued to struggle and weather Gumina's taunts, he collapsed from his injuries and Gumina reverted her transformation in triumph. With Leo properly entranced, Glassred departed for Lasaland with the mage and explained to her what had happened. While eager to return to her harem, the mage reminded her of Tette Cetera's waiting punishment. Sometime after, Gumina received Leo in her mansion with the rest of her harem.

### Downfall

"*I think even you must have realized it, Lady... You have already begun to be suspected as the culprit behind the disappearance of men. I have no intention of being taken down along with you.*"
―Irina to Gumina
The lady continued her antics, adding Mewtant Lusha, Tette, and Rio Neja to her harem. She later seduced the Beelzenian spy Neruneru Nerune. After Neruneru lured Prince Maylo to Asmodean, Gumina was confronted by him at her mansion, accused of being the culprit. She then argued with him over making him her husband, claiming she was a god that gave men the love they wanted. As Maylo continued to resist her, Gumina enchanted him as well.

One morning she learned that Luke Eve was discovered dead after she spent time with him the previous night. As the man spoke with her over the matter, Gumina expressed her indifference, much to the man's shock. Later on, in order to monitor the other men's health, Gumina found and enchanted the elderly An Sweets due to his previous occupation as a doctor. Later on, Gumina noticed that Cherubim hadn't shown himself in days. Worrying he had ended up like Luke, she went to his room and found him painting; exasperated that he still hadn't forgotten a strange woman with a weird face, Gumina took his painting supplies and burned his canvases, forbidding him from painting.

Later that year, the Lady was visited by the famed Gallerian Clockworker, turning him away due to being in a bad mood and aware he was investigating her at the behest of the Beelzenian Imperial Family. Telling the mage, Gumina learned that Gallerian was the mage's foe; the mage then recommended she enchant him. A few hours later, she found the mage using the man as a medium, planning to flee with the Venom Sword. As the mage explained that she foresaw the Lady's downfall, Gumina forced him to relinquish the man, although allowing her to leave with the sword and her original medium.

Brushing off the mage's concern, Gumina was visited by Lukana Octo disguised as Gallerian; after seemingly invoking her powers upon "him", she brought her new bride to the basement. As they embraced, Lukana stabbed Glassred in the chest with the Golden Key and triumphantly revealed herself to the lady.

While Lukana left to search for Martius, Gumina collapsed from the wound; calling for the demon, she learned that, as she had been stabbed with another vessel of sin, the key, she was going to die while the demon would return to its vessel until it found a new host. Once the demon's voice disappeared, Gumina's face returned to its original deformed state; around this time, all of her memories returned and the lady realized that she was the girl with the deformed face.

As the men, freed from her spell, fled the mansion, Gumina saw Cherubim about to join them before he looked back. Realizing she had never confessed her feelings to him, she desperately called out to him to say she truly loved him. However, she could only breathlessly watch him leave her before dying of her injury.

### Afterlife

"*To save a man in trouble–Isn't that only natural for a woman?*"
―Gumina to Gakuga and Alexiel
Following her death, Gumina's soul remained barred from the Heavenly Yard due to her contract and as a result she ended up in the Hellish Yard; during this time, she was able to retain her changed face as her "ideal" form and left her original identity behind completely. During her time in the underworld, the Master of the Hellish Yard told Gumina the story of the sun god's charge Rin Avadonia, the girl called "Irregular". In EC 999, as the ground world merged with the Hellish Yard, Glassred returned to the Third Period; as a result of the merge, her memories and those of others in Asmodean reconstructed the capital Lasaland and the former Lady returned to the site of her mansion.

Meeting with the man, Karchess, Cherubim and Maylo, the former Lady invited the members of her former harem to live with her once again of their own free will, promising to behave for their cooperation. Some time after, the Master of the Hellish Yard visited and took Gumina back to the bowels of the Hellish Yard.

Since then, Gumina waited at the judgment door with Elluka Marlon and her descendant Gakuga Octo until the Master of the Hellish Yard arrived with Alexiel Lucifen d'Autriche and Prim Marlon. Gumina later watched as Elluka suddenly summoned Sleep Princess; during the confrontation, as Sleep Princess hypnotized Prim into attacking, Gumina stopped her temporarily using her power. As Elluka and Nemesis escaped, Gumina and the others were blown out of the Hellish Yard in the process, winding up back at her estate in Asmodean.

After being welcomed home by her harem, Gumina decided to tag along with Gakuga and Alexiel as they went to Evil's Theater, convincing them to let her go since she was only one who could counter Sleep Princess' hypnosis. Arriving underneath Evil's Theater, Gumina sprouted wings and flew Gakuga and Alexiel up, dodging the gunfire of the Tasan Party soldiers. The three then followed Sleep Princess into the director's office, listening to Bruno Octo and then Elluka Marlon's explanation of how they were trying to rebuild the world.

After Ma's consciousness suddenly resurfaced from within Alexiel, Gumina was absorbed along with the rest of the contractors. Following Gallerian's soul mended, Gumina separated from the fusion. After Rin and Alexiel later created a new world with the Re\_birthday function, Gumina participated in the ball at the Lucifenian Royal Palace before being presumably incorporated into the Fourth Period.

### Legacy

At the end of the incident, the exact number of victims that Glassred had in her harem was unknown. Due to her interactions with the Venom Sword, the children Gumina sired with Maylo, the man and Karchess and their descendants gained the potential to develop Hereditary Evil Raiser Syndrome and pass it onto future generations. Her children later led to many famous descendants, including Banica Conchita, Gast Glass, Ney Avadonia and Bruno Octo in the late 10th century EC.

During his investigation of the incident and its aftermath, Gallerian Clockworker learned from Cherubim about Gumina and their interactions leading up to the massacre. In the years following the incident, Cherubim continued painting portraits of Gumina at his home in Elphegort, eventually producing dozens of works depicting Lady Glassred's visage. Earning the moniker as the "Lady of Lust", Behemoth followers of the Held sect began spreading word of Gumina's demonic deeds. With the lady memorialized as a "demon" in myth, devout Behemoth followers often persecuted those identified as her descendants, such as "The Demon of Asmodean". As time progressed however, the more supernatural elements of the Lady were deemed fictitious by the late EC 900s.

Despite this, her crimes were still remembered and one criminal, Scherzer, even attempted to mimic the incident Gumina had caused. Less than a century after the lady's death, Asmodean became an independent state and Glassred was regarded as a celebrity for the country. As a result, Lady Glassred became a part of Asmodean culture, such as the Asmodean Emperor deriving several of his powers from the Glassred marquises.

Gallerian Clockworker later passed on his knowledge of Gumina to the historian Will Jaakko, who later compiled a manuscript regarding the vessels of sin. Centuries after the Duke's death, Yukina Freezis visited the site of his ruined mansion while investigating Will's writings on the Seven Deadly Sins. The novelist later wrote a Freezis Fairy Tale inspired by Glassred's actions, entitled "The Lady and the Four Men" and became among her more popular works.

## Personality and Traits

"*At any rate, I have a spell that allows me to fulfill what they hunger for. And so I was able to grant these men a new happiness. This... is the work of ‘god’. I am a god who makes men happy.*"
―Gumina's twisted reasoning
Gumina was a selfish and hedonistic woman. Due to her background, Gumina had a stunted social development and was embittered by the ridicule and abuse she suffered because of her deformity. This bitterness and hatred of her family remained with her even when her memories had been wiped of the cause. As the Demon of Lust encouraged her to behave like a HER, Glassred's bitterness transformed into a complete disrespect for men and life, thinking nothing of brainwashing her harem members and slaughtering countless innocents while masking her bitterness under delusions of grandeur. After being freed of her lust, however, Gumina preferred instead to be chivalrous and helpful to men.

Gumina originally was a quiet, lonely girl who had the self-control to tolerate the abuse she faced. After being scorned by her love, Gumina broke under the pressure and lost control; this loss of control was capitalized on by the Demon of Lust. Its magic made her impulsive and quick to go to extremes, reflected in Gumina's tendency to commit most of her murders as massacres and her rape of men as a large-scale harem; she similarly had trouble controlling her libido and her sexual addiction only increased over time. Fitting this, Gumina's natural cluelessness warped into conceited arrogance and childishness, allowing her to easily be taken by surprise.

Gumina gradually developed an obsession with collecting men as her "husbands," believing herself in love with any handsome man she met no matter his class, sexuality, or age. Gumina cared little for her wives as individuals, though, save for a few favorites, and was unconcerned with their deaths. Despite this, as her lust grew she deluded herself into believing that she was akin to a god granting men the "love" that they were unable to obtain in their own lives, believing that she would create a utopia of men in love with and loved by her. In the afterlife Gumina maintained a positive view of polygamy and remained fiercely jealous of rivals, although with a harem made up of genuinely-consenting men.

Outwardly, "Gumina" hid her darker nature by appearing a charismatic, kind, and humble lady. Ironically, when amnesiac about her possession, Glassred was horrified by the depravities she desired and had been deeply guilty over her massacre of her family. She similarly began her reign as marchioness being far more humble and awkward, possibly due to her true background. Because of her abuse, however, she loathed her former identity and personality.

## Skills and Abilities

"*Heh...Don't forget why we're here. If you want further power..."*
*"I understand.*"
―Irina and Glassred
Despite being trapped in a basement for part of her life, Glassred was very shrewd; she was extremely successful as the Duke of Asmodean and well-versed in reading, writing, and, also dancing. With her position of authority, Glassred was a capable actor, portraying herself as a respectful, humble, and kindhearted lady and that she was as confused about the mysterious disappearances as everyone else. Her influence as a marchioness also allowed her to track the progress of the Empire's investigation into the disappearances.

After sealing a contract with the Demon of Lust, Glassred was granted all of the powers of the Venom Sword and the Demon of Lust, particularly in being able to brainwash the opposite sex, manipulate memories, and enact a demonic transformation. Because of her connection to the Demon, Gumina could freely interact with it telepathically, as well as invoke her powers to sense other sources of magical power. However, to keep her powers' potency intact, she was required to constantly have intercourse with and take the life energy of some in her harem. During her tenure as a servant, she was capable in performing the duties required of her. She also had basic knowledge of the Magic Kingdom Levianta and its figures.

## Character Connections

Irina Clockworker: Glassred's partner. While initially bewildered by her sudden appearance and skeptical of her claims, Gumina became amused by Irina's secretive nature and what she perceived as her needless concern. Although genuinely thankful to the mage for interrupting her suicide and interested in bedding her medium, she was less enthusiastic with helping her achieve her own goals and expressed more interest in building her harem.

Cherubim Venomania: Glassred's childhood friend and later member of her harem. The lady became friends with Cherubim at a young age and fell in love with him. She became devastated when he publicly mocked her, this driving her to seal a contract with a demon. Nonetheless, Glassred continued to love him until her death, though her love was warped by her heartbreak and lust.

Maylo Beelzenia: A man in Glassred's harem. The lady became fascinated with Maylo's portrait, finding him to be very handsome, and resolved to seduce him into her harem. She maintained a false relationship with him while he was in her harem.

Leo Turner: A man in Glassred's harem. The lady became attracted to Leo and preferred spending time with him during her time in Mystica, seducing him more subtly over several days. Glassred was disappointed at ultimately having to use the power of Lust on Leo, having believed that this time it wouldn't be necessary. After he was in her harem she maintained her false relationship with him.

Rajih Assad: A rival for Leo's affections. The lady thought little of Rajih initially, intending to kill him in her demon form and not understanding the relationship that he had with her newest victim. Rajih's convictions and love for Leo reminded her of her own past love for Cherubim.

Karchess Crim: A man in Glassred's harem. The lady seduced Karchess due to his beauty and maintained a false relationship with him in her harem, giving him gifts and treating him with more kindness than his own parents. He was among her chosen "favorites" in her harem.

Lukana Octo: Glassred's murderer. The lady met Lukana while the latter was disguised as a man and welcomed "him" to her harem, finding "him" to be very handsome. When Lukana stabbed the lady and revealed herself, Glassred was deeply shocked.

Luke Eve: A man in Glassred's harem. Glassred became fascinated with tales of Luke's beauty and "healthy dark skin," using the power of Lust to seduce him against his true sexuality. Although indulging in a false relationship with him, she was unaffected by his resulting mental strain and later death.
