藤原 清春

A priest who teaches at St. Marianne Academy on a relief basis. His church is located a short distance from the academy grounds. In public he is well-respected by both students and staff members for his serious manner and acute sense of responsibility. He is also famous as an exorcist without peer. He is usually referred cases of women possessed by evil spirits of a lustful nature which the regular exorcists cannot handle. Despite his success and fame, he refuses all candidates who wish to acknowledge him as Master and learn under his tutelage. The source of his exorcism ability is the contract made between one of his ancestors and the Demon Nia. In exchange for Nia's oath not to attack humans for their souls, the Fujiwara family would provide her with a steady source of nourishment in the form of exorcised evil spirits. Although less effective than human souls, the sheer quantity makes up for difference in quality. The contract is passed down through the Fujiwara bloodline and since it requires the exorcist to exercise his powers through sexual copulation Kiyoharu is extremely reluctant and evasive when he's pressed upon this issue by Lily and other aspiring disciples. Having lived alone for much of his professional life, he's capable of maintaining his own household and keeping his dual life a secret. Because his usual "clients" tend to have lost their reason when possessed, he is conflicted when he's forced to use his exorcism powers against three students he is close to and who retain awareness of the experience throughout.
