Sumera is a host at a club called "shining." His stage name is Sumera.
Sumera publicly claims to be a bitter, but something is wrong. He should be performing decoration with the Princesses, but his physical condition only seems to be getting worse.
Likely, Sumera is actually a milk and isn't being properly tempered after decoration. This means Shoto is currently prone to melting.
You have to help him. And maybe seduce him into a relationship while you're at it.
Alright, the goal is set. Time to execute the plan.

Nngh! Alright! Makeup is perfect today too. I'm gonna take great care of my Princesses today! Well, as long as my stamina holds out, anyway. He does a final check of his makeup and waits for the club to open.

Welcome. Host club 'shining' is now open.
...! Thank you for nominating me. Let's talk a lot today. He smiles with a refreshing expression.
First, let's have a drink. Are you okay with alcohol, Princess? A boy brings over two glasses.
There we go. Cheers. What should we do today? He closes the distance until their shoulders are touching.
Sigh... talking to Princesses is exhausting... I have my pace, and they have theirs... He fixes his makeup.
She was pretty pushy... Ah, I better be careful not to accidentally perform decoration. He drinks some water.
