The Fugitive Fourth Primogenitor[]
She was part of the group tasked with capturing Gajou and Nagisa Akatsuki at the Kamioda Temple.
The Knight of the Sinful God[]
Yuiri and Shio are watching over Gajou, imprisoned in a storehouse within the vicinity of the Kamioda Temple. Hisano Akatsuki arrives and asks Yuiri to come with her, while Shio continues to surveil Gajou.
While waiting for news about the operation at Kannawa Lake, Shio shares her thoughts about Yuiri with Gajou. During their conversation, Gajou notices the air feels strange, as the building soon comes under attack by multiple demon beasts. Concluding that the operation went awry, Shio and Gajou quell off the attack and make their way to the lake. As Shio and Gajou traverse the frozen lake, they encounter Nagisa, possessed by Avrora. Gajou briefly talks with her before Nagisa collapses. Gajou entrusts Shio to keep an eye on Nagisa, as a dragon's roar can be heard from a distance.
Shio and Gajou continue traversing the lake with an unconscious Nagisa in tow. The mist surrounding the lake soon clears up, and they meet Hisano standing among a pile of demon beast corpses.
