Excellent. He'll still be working with his powers because "prepared means no worries"; that was his arc in game anyway, he'll just ICly go at it faster now. But Beato having no reason to bother Ange is definitely his ideal! He'll help keep it that way if he thinks his meddling will matter.
His Ronove vibes actually run pretty deep past his cheerful surface trolling! He's not a proper butler, but his position in canon is as a servant to the local family of strong eccentric tea-drinking aristocrat women, and he's often out messing around in the action on their behalf. He's trusted to act independently because he always has their best interests in mind. I've only read up through episode 6, but Ronove parts that reminded me of Break are things like scolding Beato to be more dignified when she gets excited even though she's the one in power between them, sneakily acting to Beato's benefit when he was "supposed" to have moved on to serving Eva-Beatrice, and his taking a shine to Jessica during their fight to the point of granting her an extra moment to call Battler and warn him. It's one of the other reasons he and Ange click so well -- he's used to having a princess type to follow around, and while he teases the crap out of that princess and thinks it's funny to rile her up, his loyalty is something earned and his devotion comes from genuine affection.
He wouldn't be inviting Beato over for tea at his house or anything since it's one of Ange's safe spaces but he's usually out and about in Trench a lot and easy to find, and he'd definitely tolerate her when they crossed paths in public I think. He also has ties to his own canon's deeply lonely, under-socialized young lady wielding scary magic powers and sometimes engaging in death and torture on a whim, and in fact that girl (less murdery now) is in game and also one of his pretend nieces. If he comes to recognize the similarities in Beato, he's most likely to conclude that it's in everyone's best interests to be kind.
