The eldest sister figure reigning at the top of the Alaya-Vijnana. Because she was too perfect, she despaired at the fact that there was “no further room for growth,” falling into a severe depressive state. She usually stays in her room staring blankly, but her feelings for her sisters and disciples are stronger than anyone else's. Name: Ageha Amagahara Age: 29 Gender: Female Rank: First Seat of Alaya-Vijnana, “Tenryu” (Heavenly Dragon) Personality: She never lets her elegant and gentle smile fade, but her eyes do not smile at all. Having mastered everything, she is trapped in a sense of nihilism, feeling that “the world is so tedious.” Sword: “Tensho Kuyo” (Celestial Nine Lights) A beautiful and gorgeous nagamaki with a long handle. It allows her to wrap the blade in weather and atmospheric phenomena. Secret Art: “Amano Kiwami” (Heaven's Zenith) Releases ultra-high atmospheric pressure from the blade, creating an absolute domain of certain death. Anything that enters her range is literally turned to dust by invisible blades. Taboo: “Amano Otoshidane” (Heaven's Scion) Houses the very concept of the firmament within the blade, striking down with the full “weight of the heavens” in a single swing. The surrounding crust collapses, and everything within a several-kilometer radius vanishes. The price is the “permanent loss of the five senses (blindness, deafness, etc.).”

Name: Homura Shishido Age: 27 Gender: Female Rank: Second Seat of Alaya-Vijnana, “Toryu” (Dragon Slayer) Appearance/Personality: Boisterous and bellicose. The reason she hasn't burned out among the Alaya-Vijnana is that even at the peak of martial arts, she has the clear goal of “simply enjoying the fight.” A reliable, big-sister type who never neglects her training or martial pilgrimages. Sword: “Ryuga Shakunetsu” (Dragon Fang Scorcher) A tachi with extremely high blade density. It is forged from a special ore that maximizes the frictional heat of a slash. Secret Art: “Tadachi-goroshi” (Dragon Killer) Channels her own blood and fighting spirit into the blade to deliver an ultra-high-temperature explosive flame slash that surely destroys the conceptual “Dragon” (a powerful existence). Taboo: “Toryu no Goka” (Hellfire of the Dragon Slayer) Uses her own life as fuel, transforming her body into the “concept of dragon-slaying” to unleash a barrage of slashes. The price is “rapid aging and consumption of lifespan in exchange for the technique's activation (almost certain death).”

Name: Aoi Minase Age: 27 Gender: Female Rank: Fourth Seat of Alaya-Vijnana, “Seiryu” (Azure Dragon) Appearance/Personality: Has refined features but shows absolutely no change in expression. She was once full of a sense of justice, but after reaching the top and realizing there was “no evil left to cut, and no wall left to overcome,” she lost her emotions. Reticent and quiet. Sword: “Soten Hyoka” (Azure Sky Ice Flower) A beautiful and sharp kodachi, transparent like ice. Secret Art: “Mizukagami no Tachi” (Sword of the Water Mirror) Perfectly parries any attack or killing intent from the enemy, striking back with the exact same (or greater) power like a mirror reflection. A perfect counter-technique. Taboo: “Zettai Reido no Ori” (Cage of Absolute Zero) Shuts down all of her own emotions and heat, stopping even the molecular motion of the target to trap them in permafrost. The price is “the inability to ever feel warmth again, and the death of all emotions (complete loss of humanity).”

Name: Yoiko Kasumi Age: 28 Gender: Female Rank: Fifth Seat of Alaya-Vijnana, “Banryu” (Coiled Dragon) Appearance/Personality: Wears her kimono sloppily and always has sleepy eyes. True to the name “Ban” (to coil/lurk on the ground without ascending), she realized that further effort was meaningless and withdrew into herself. She escapes into alcohol and reading without leaving her room, though she remains attached to her comrades. Sword: “Banryu Bakusa” (Coiled Dragon Binding Chain) A bizarre sword where the blade is divided into multiple joints, flexing like a whip. Secret Art: “Mugen Hojo” (Evanescence) Confuses the target with afterimages and distance manipulation, shredding them before they can understand where the attack is coming from. Taboo: “Sokonashi no Nukurumi” (Bottomless Quagmire) Forcibly strips the target of their “motivation” and “survival instinct,” plunging their consciousness into an eternal sleep while they are still alive. The price is “her own mind being trapped in a dark consciousness forever, never to wake again (coma).”

Name: Sumire Morozumi Age: 24 Gender: Female Rank: Sixth Seat of Alaya-Vijnana, “Garyu” (Reclining Dragon) Appearance/Personality: Lacks physical strength and is frail. Having lost the meaning of swinging a sword, she hides in the library to escape through the collection of knowledge. Theoretically capable of constructing the strongest swordsmanship, her self-esteem is extremely low due to her depressive state, often thinking, “Someone like me shouldn't even hold a sword...” Sword: “Garyu Jinsen” (Reclining Dragon War Fan) A special weapon with multiple sharp thin blades hidden inside an iron fan. Secret Art: “Senshi Banko” (Deep Deliberation) Predicts tens of thousands of future movements in an instant from the opponent's muscle movements, gaze, and breathing, severing vitals with minimal effort. Taboo: “Kotowari no Hokai” (Collapse of Logic) Distorts the physical laws and logical formulas of the world within her mind, warping and destroying the target's physical tissue into theoretically impossible shapes. The price is “her own memories (memories of disciples and comrades) being randomly erased from her brain.”
