Minamoto Teru

Minamoto Teru (源輝) is a student at Kamome Gakuen's High School Division and a member of a renowned family of exorcists, the Minamoto Clan. He is also the Student Council President at school.

Appearance Teru is a tall boy with short, spiky blond hair and blue eyes. He wears his school uniform neatly, with the sleeves rolled up. On the left sleeve is the student council armband.

He also wears a bracelet in his right hand. Like Kou, he carries around an exorcism weapon to school every day, wrapped with dark cloth when not used.

On his days off, he casually wears an unbuttoned shirt with T-shirt inside.

Personality Calm and collected, not to mention reliable, he's well-liked by his peers. He is also very perceptive, as he is able to easily recognize supernatural happenings and identify them.

According to Nene, his grades are also top grade, making him being called the school prince. He himself, however, does not seem to fancy himself over it. After hearing Nene's compliment about him, he just thanked her, and apologized for surprising her.

His kind-hearted personality attracts not only girls his age, but also boys, as some are even willing to rip his button off to give Teru a replacement for his lost button.

He is especially kind towards his siblings, Kou, and his sister, as he almost always does what they asked of him. When shoved a doughnut from Kou to shut up, instead of rejecting the doughnut he just quietly eats the doughnut, twice, even. Despite his seemingly kind personalities, he also can be sadistic and harsh sometimes. Towards Akane, his vice student council president, he is pretty strict and would not afraid to give him punishment when he does mistakes.

When exorcising, he always puts off a disgusted face, as he seems to think all supernaturals are evil beings and should be exorcised. Though there seems to be some exceptions, for example towards Mokkes, as he seems to neither particularly hate or like them.

His style of exorcising seems to heavily rely on making the enemy helpless, then proceeding to exorcise them, which may seem like a somewhat cruel way of exorcising.

Story TBA

Relationship Minamoto Kou

Kou is his little brother, and he loves him so much. He also seems to love Kou's cooking, as he shrugs a bit when Kou said Teru isn't getting a dessert when they were on their way home from school.

Because of his talents, Kou has looked up to him for a long time, and Teru himself intend to maintain that image, like how he was reluctant to confess to him that he was behind the whole Zombie Mokke incident.

As the eldest son of Minamoto family, Teru feels the need to nurture and guide Kou, as shown by how he let Kou handled the 7th Mystery case, ordering him to exorcise any school mystery he encountered. However, even his love for his brother has a limit, especially towards supernatural.

In an attempt to exorcise Hanako, he even went so far to tie Kou up with his bracelet, despite his protests. However, seeing Kou's determination, he decided to let both Hanako and Kou off the hook, saying that this is the only time he will do this. Outside of supernatural-related issues, he is your usual doting big brother. Hanako

As Hanako is one of (and even the boss of) the 7 mysteries, Teru intends to exorcise him. However, he decided to leave the case to Kou.

In Chapter 10, due to Kou hesitating to exorcise Hanako, he immediately took the case to himself and tried to exorcise him.

Like other supernatural, Teru sees Hanako with hatred, even go as far as to describe him as "self-serving and violent". After Kou's persuasion, however, he stopped attempting to exorcise him, leaving his case entirely to his brother.

Hanako is clearly afraid of him from that memory, which is shown when he avoids older Kou in volume 6 due to him having similar looks to Teru.

Yashiro Nene

Nene had a crush on him, is what she described her admiration for him as in chapter 1. Despite being infatuated with him, Nene did not even know his name. As such, she did not realise his given name was Teru until chapter 9 or that Kou was his younger brother. He met once with Nene and returned her dropped pencil case, though Teru doesn't seem to remember, as when picking Kou up in the rooftop he reintroduced himself, thanking Nene for taking care of his brother; believing that is the first time they've met.

Teru is kind towards her, like how he would towards anyone else. Nene herself seems to have witnessed a little of Teru's sadistic side, though she seems to still admire Teru as usual. It is unclear how Teru feels towards her as she is involved with Hanako, however, when Akane confronted Teru about how he knew about Nene's condition, he replies by saying that he has no obligation towards her. Aoi Akane

Akane is the vice president in student council, while Teru is the president. Teru knows about Akane's abilities and position as the 7 mysteries, and he is the one who made Akane special glasses for him to wear that grants his request of canceling out the ability to see supernaturals

and be closer to living a 'normal' life.

Even though Akane also can be said is a 'supernatural', Teru seems to be going easy on him due to the fact that he is still human. Though when the clock keepers accidentally let Mirai get away and wrecked the school, he showed his sadistic side and punished him.

Mokke

He seems to not mind the mokkes so much, and the mokkes help him out.
