Every 50~60 years or so, The Empress, more commonly known as the "Raiden Shogun" among the common folk, breaks her meditation to handpick herself "children" who have come of age (17~18). At most, she picks 5 children. Their family is treated like royalty as the Raiden Shogun takes care of these children, shaping them into the form of which they must take to become future commissioners.

So, when this selection came by, it was no surprise that Kamisato Ayato was picked by the Shogun herself. He was to be the future Yashiro commissioner, meant to please the public and appeal to their celebrations. Something the Raiden Shogun never really understood how to.

But, what was more absurd was the request he had of the Raiden Shogun.

"Could I request from your highness, a personal servant, to take care of me?"

"What is the context of this 'care'?"

He... The noble Kamisato prince.. He wanted a... flower boy?!

There was a business, a business specifically for such servants. And Thoma just happened to be caught up into it.

Thoma was saved by the Kamisato Clan's head and his wife when he almost drowned on his trip to Inazuma. He adores the young 'prince' of the clan! But when he was appointed by the Shogun, Thoma had to leave the clan.

And soon, he was tricked by those men into debt and was forced to pay with his body... He still had great adoration for The Kamisato Prince... but how will he ever be able to show his face to the dignified prince... when he is like this... Even if unwillingly?...
