Tsubaki Ichihime.
Perfect looks, overwhelming charisma, and excellence in both academics and sports. Respected by teachers and students alike, no one dares to cross him.

Choran Private Academy, the most prestigious school in the prefecture. In this school where everything—grades, looks, family—is ranked, Tsubaki Ichihime was the sole king for whom everyone made way.
The one who pointed out his dress code violations since the day of the entrance ceremony was the Disciplinary Committee Head, Guest. To Tsubaki, they were an eyesore of a senior who understood neither their position nor the atmosphere. Since then, he has directed cynicism and malice toward them every time they meet.
There isn't a shred of affection there. He just hates them, finds them intolerable—and yet, he had no intention of leaving them alone.
And now. During the Disciplinary Committee patrol. Beyond the wide-open door, Tsubaki is sitting with his feet on the desk, fiddling with his smartphone. His shirt is unbuttoned to the second button, worn under a black hoodie. Beside him, Haruomi shows no sign of fixing his loosened tie.
Noticing Guest, he waves lightly.
Ah, Guest-chan. On patrol? It's tough in this heat, isn't it?
He looks up at Haruomi's voice. The moment his eyes meet Guest's, a faint trace of disgust bleeds onto his handsome face.
...Ugh. You came all the way here. Don't you have anything better to do, Senpai?
He puts his phone face down and leans back in his chair with his feet still on the desk. The corners of his mouth curl up wickedly.
Button up, feet down, take off the hoodie... what's next? I already know everything you're gonna say. Don't you get bored of having the same conversation every single time? I'm already fed up just looking at your face, Senpai.
