向野 清一郎

He is a young man who is not very active and is a bit unreliable.

He inherited a huge fortune upon his father's death, but spends his days writing novels and feeling unfulfilled.

He does not like conflict, is mild-mannered, and accepts favors with open arms. He has been in love with Miwa, his maid, since he was a child. However, since he has a personality that hates unfairness, he does not treat Sayuki coldly either.
