Ichinose-kun wa Itsumo Iinari.

The Ichinose family has long been tasked with protecting the Saionji family. Kimihito Saionji and Takeru Ichinose have maintained a close relationship as master and servant. Kimihito's arrogant demeanor draws attention from others, though he must maintain this facade despite secretly admiring Takeru. Takeru accepts his role without complaint, recognizing Kimihito's dependence on him. He sees value in maintaining this dynamic, as it allows him to observe a different side of his master.
