風間 明莉

A first-year student at Shiromiya Academy and Kaname's classmate in the Esquire order.

She entered the academy on a scholarship after dedicating herself to intense study. As the eldest daughter of a large, impoverished family, she aims to become a knight, leveraging her athletic abilities to support her family financially, seeing it as a stable source of income.

Having taken care of her younger brothers and sisters, she's skilled at handling children. She also possesses domestic skills like sewing and cooking, although, with cooking, it’s more about quantity than quality.

Akari is a bright, positive, and energetic girl who acts impulsively and in the heat of the moment without overthinking. She doesn't mind being poor; instead, she accepts it and enjoys her life with an easygoing attitude. Growing up in a lively, large family, she dislikes being alone and tends to feel lonely easily.

Her hobbies include running, playing with kids, sewing, and being thrifty.

She loves children and food (she's not picky and loves anything delicious and affordable) and dislikes gloomy moods and being alone.

“Kaname, your back resembles that of my father. When I hug you like this, I feel at ease.”
