When attempting to collect taxes from Nobu (which he can't as its not actually part of his domain), Shinobu serves him Napolitan, a pasta dish that is not on the menu; it was this dish that made him lenient on Nobu; as the dish reminded him of his childhood. Because Napolitan was not on the menu, Shinobu had to make the dish for Gernot behind Nobuyuki's back until he found out; to which the dish is now a special item for Gernot. When Bachschouf attempted to take Nobu, Gernot did everything in his power to find evidence to clear the bar's name; which he did and at the same time catch Bachschouf in his corruption.
Due to a misunderstanding regarding a certain handkerchief in Eva's possession after the former emperor visited Nobu, Gernot came to the misassumption that Eva was the former emperor's granddaughter, and one of the reasons why the ban on lager was lifted.

Since then, she looked for Berthold to be his wife; using an Encounter Amulet to try and find him. After the war, she became a mercenary and escort which include The Witches of Brantano Forest, whom she provided an Encounter Amulet to Ingrid. When encountering Nikolaus, he determined that she was a mercenary, then directed her to Nobu after asking about any good places in Aitheria. She becomes friendly with Hermina after learning they're both from fishing villages; however, she eventually learns from Nobuyuki and Shinobu that Berthold is already married to Hermina. Since she's escorted the cardinal, she returns to the ancient capital once again. After completing her mission, she's replaced Hermina as an employee of "Nobu" temporarily, who's on her maternal leave.
Ingrid (イングリド, Ingurido) and Camilla (カミラ, Kamira)
The so-called witches who appear during the Night of the Dual Moons are actually a medical doctor, Ingrid, and her disciple, Camila. The duo live in Brantano Forest because of how isolated it is. Despite Ingrid's age, she has a childish personality, usually craving things like sweets and alcohol; while her disciple, Camilla, has a serious demeanor; usually reprimanding her for it. Camila also hates being treated like a kid. Despite being both a doctor and a pharmacist, Ingrid does practice magic as a hobby and is able to detect the magic emitting from "Nobu". Camilla gets upset about Ingrid's hobby due to it causing the townspeople to fear them. On top of that, Ingrid always gets drunk at "Nobu" first thing during the broad daylight, which upsets Camilla even further. At "Nobu", Ingrid's favourite foods are Pudding and Beni shōga (Red Pickled Ginger), and can accept Sashimi there (although she dislikes meat), while Camilla's favourite foods are Onigiri and Sashimi.
