Veronica Liones

"Listen to me. You have to sever your ties with them. They're all evil, despicable people. Especially, the captain, Meliodas, with the dangerous rumors about him... he is not some half-hearted criminal that you can change. His appearance is nothing but a mask... and his true identity is that of a raging monster that leaves a path of destruction wherever he goes!"

Meliodas
Veronica despises Meliodas and believes that he is a treacherous villain who is tricking her sister, Elizabeth. Her assumptions of his character is built around rumors within the kingdom. However, after the events at Vaizel and surviving it, Veronica seems to change her opinion about Meliodas, as she trusts him and Griamore to protect Elizabeth.

Griamore
Griamore has been her bodyguard since childhood and appears to mainly acknowledge only Veronica among the Royal Family. He is her subordinate, and is extremely loyal to her, considering displeasing her as absolutely unallowable. He had begun serving her at quite a young age, obeying her orders and playing with her frequently. Veronica is also shown to trust him, shown by him being the first person she revealed her secrets to. It is later suggested that Griamore has romantic feelings toward Veronica, which she appears to reciprocate. He even says that she is adorable the way she is (as a tomboy). When he believed she had died, he greatly grieved over her body and was overjoyed when she returned to her kingdom alive and well. She also grew very attached to him when he was leaving the castle; even when there were no duties to be done she called him back to stay by her side. When he left on a mission her eyes were tearing up. At some point after the Holy War ended, Veronica started an official romantic relationship with Griamore.

Guila
Despite Guila being responsible for almost killing Veronica back at Vaizel, the second princess of Liones forgave her and appointed Guila as her instructor, telling the last New Generation member to not hold back on training. They also spend some time bonding and relaxing at the underground hotsprings. Later on, Veronica, disguised as Nikka, was worried for Guila and consoled her after receiving the bad news regarding the Ten Commandments and Gowther's apparent true affiliation with them.

Denzel Liones
Denzel is Veronica's uncle and he is aware of her stubborn tomboy nature. The Assistant Great Holy Knight stated that Veronica is out of his league compared to Bartra whom she pulled the wool over her father's eyes as he easily saw through his niece in disguise among the crowd of Holy Knights, lightly bonking on her helmet. Regardless, Denzel cared for Veronica and said he could not face his brother again if something happened to her. On the other hand, Veronica is fond of her uncle and thanked him for letting her stay after being found out.
