After speaking with Ferdinand in his side chapter in Part 2 Volume 3, Damuel realizes to his horror that he and Shikza were similar: He looked down on Myne after learning she is merely a commoner who was given blue robes and hence wasn't willing to put as much effort into protecting her as he would have if she had been of noble descent. After Rozemyne wakes up, he takes special care who approaches his siblings and shields Rozemyne from potential dangers, hearing from his grandmother how dangerous Rozemyne and Ferdinand apparently are, the first thing he does is trying to get his little sister, Charlotte, away from Rozemyne. Florencia is responsible for Charlotte's education, which is why she is far more competent than her older brother.

Karstedt's 36-year-old first wife and the matriarch of the house. Leonore and Cornelius are also willing to leave Ehrenfest to stay by Rozemyne's side. His family is part of Veronica's former faction, and at his father's behest Roderick got closer to Wilfried during their first winter socializing. His people skills also allowed him to see who Rozemyne's real family is. While he was able to send Bezewanst to the temple after Gabriele's death, he could not prevent Veronica's rise to power and the continued oppression of his family, and the only thing he could do to protect them was to help arrange marriages to powerful nobles.Despairing at the thought of his family's decline, he regained hope and life when he heard of Veronica's fall and the adoption of his descendant, Rozemyne, into the archducal family. As is shown in the latter half of Part 5, Grausam uses Devouring soldiers and dyes them to make shadow doubles of himself. Which is why he gets the divine protection of the God of Sex in Part 5.

The waking world was hardly fair to Bandai Namco's Dream Traveler. He is a central member of the Veronica faction, but his true loyalty lies with Georgine. She was supposed to become the aub of Ehrenfest, but got displaced from this position when Sylvester was deemed to be the better choice. After Rozemyne woke up, she immediately agreed to teach Wilfried's guards her method in the next spring, so if Traugott had accepted back then, he would have gotten the mana compression method, the training from Bonifatius, and he would have served a man, like he wanted. However, he quickly changes his opinion when Rozemyne starts thinking about taking in children that belong to the former Veronica faction.

Traugott and Angelica are very aggressive. He frequently tags along with Rozemyne on trips that require any of his talents. Matthias then gives Rozemyne his name and becomes her guard knight. This is based on an offhand compliment Bonifatius once paid him, which Rozemyne believes was meant to motivate Traugott to train harder, but instead made him arrogant. The only reason she wanted him to resign willingly was to protect Rihyarda and Bonifatius' families. Florencia noticed that Barthold, the son of Georgine loyalists who has given his name to Wilfried, is actively trying to sabotage her son. She also planned this to happen at a time when Rozemyne was supposed to have a leisurely tea party with her siblings. He also instinctively knows Viscount Gerlach was involved, though he can't exactly explain how, after storming Viscount Gerlach's mansion, while looking around Gerlach's destroyed workshop, he finds a torn silver cloth.

When Georgine asks for his name, he lies and tells her that his mana is still growing and he hasn't found good materials yet, he tells Rozemyne that Georgine has possibly found a way to Ehrenfest's foundation. For instance, at the start of Part 3, she asks Cornelius, her own son, and Ottilie, her friend, to look after Rozemyne. One of his major moves at the end of Part 2 involves defying this. Wilfried mistakenly believes that someone who gave one's name can be relied on, and thus lets Barthold influence him, which frustrates Wilfried's other retainers like Lamprecht and Alexis. His family relation to Rozemyne is also different compared to Hartmut, Brunhilde, and Leonore. As a widower who has yet to recover from his wife's death, he divides his time between training recruits, doing paperwork and being Ferdinand's bodyguard when he's needed. A layscholar and Philine and Konrad's father, who married into Philine's mother's family.

Everything not only worked out perfectly in Sylvester's favor, it resembles a plan Karstedt mentioned one volume earlier, where a hypothetical archduke would have someone kidnap Myne, then rescue her to make her feel indebted, or the kidnapper sells her to an archduke who would proclaim her to be his daughter all along.

He's Wilfried's bodyguard and hence has a significant portion of his place in noble society riding on his charge staying Sylvester's heir. As is shown at the start of Part 4, Inside Ehrenfest, Sylvester is not regarded well by most nobles.

His wife talks him out of it after Rozemyne and Elvira show her a way to integrate into noble society without having to reveal her face, Lamprecht didn't have the necessary mana to be accepted by the parents of the girl he is courting.

Together with Matthias, he is the first of the former Veronica faction students who swear their loyalty to Rozemyne at the start of Part 5. Fixing the situation and making sure he doesn't relapse into it in the future winds up becoming one of Rozemyne's ongoing projects. In the end, his uncle and mother have been neutralized, Myne is now detached from her family and bound to his, and Myne is also grateful to Sylvester that she and her family are now safe.

She treats and judges everyone fairly, which is why he desires to serve her. He doesn't mind letting her commoner family see her, as long as her cover isn't blown, and he allows her to go to the temple for longer periods of time to rest (after she complained that he gives her and Ferdinand too much work), instead of staying at the castle for socializing and bridal training.
