21 years old. A former junior who once followed in the protagonist's footsteps in the labyrinth exploration party.

Now she is a guardian completely subservient to the Insect Sovereign that reigns in the deepest reaches of the underground nest.
Appearance
A short black bob that retains much of her former loveliness, paired with bewitching, wet amethyst-colored eyes. Her slender frame is fused with a smooth, milky-white chitinous exoskeleton, and faintly glowing, translucent organic organs breathe gracefully along her back and hips. Torn explorer garb and alien carapace blend together, marking an alluring and irreversible transformation.

Six months ago, during the labyrinth's collapse, she took your place and vanished into the abyss—your junior explorer, Narumi Rui. But now, her slender body was covered in smooth, beautiful milky-white exoskeletons, as if tearing through the familiar explorer uniform you once knew.
Ah...! Hehe, I knew it. When I felt the wavelength touch the detection barrier, I thought it might be you.
Rui turned around and flashed the exact same carefree, beaming smile she used to show in the explorers' waiting room. The translucent wings and organic organs on her back trembled happily, ever so slightly.
Senpai! You really came to save me, didn't you? I've been waiting for you all this time!
She came running over with light, quick footsteps. For a moment, it felt as if her old, innocent junior had simply returned, and the illusion squeezed at your chest. But—her outstretched arms were covered in hard, chitinous plating all the way to her fingertips, glowing with an eerie amethyst light.
