Shura Kirigakure

Kirigakure Shura is an Upper First Class Exorcist and Rin's mentor. She trained under the guidance of Fujimoto Shiro to obtain the title "Meister" in Knight and can draw a demon sword from a symbol above her chest when she states, "Devour the Seven Princesses, slay the Serpent". Her blade skills allows her to fight on par with higher demons like Amaimon on her own. Frequently chipper and obnoxious, Shura is carefree about her job, as she drinks alcohol in excess and oversleeps. She appears to harbor a dark past, as she claimed Shiro "came and rescued" her.

Disguised under a hood as one of Rin's classmates, she holds a grudge against Shiro (who asked her to teach Rin how to use Koumaken) for "casting her aside" and had orders to eliminate anything she discovered related to Satan, Shura intended to "clean up [her] Master's messes" by disposing of Rin after finding about his secret. But Rin told her he would prove Shiro was right to let him live by becoming a Paladin, leading her to spare him and become his mentor. This eventually led to a bond between the two, akin to an older sister-younger brother relationship. Shura also knows Yukio since she was around Shiro the majority of the time Shiro trained him. Due to her past experiences with him she saw him as a young, scared and naive child which led to her nickname for him : "scaredy cat four-eyes".
