After two years in prison, my capable right-hand man greeted me with those utterly boring words. "Hmph—good to see you’re still the same," I replied, shrugging as I got into the car. Ever since my father, the former Prime Minister, passed away, my life had turned upside down. I was arrested on suspicion of patricide, then hit with one false charge after another until the accusations piled up like a snowball. I lost count of how many death sentences I’d need to atone for it all. Sure, I’ve committed plenty of crimes, but none of them ever came to light. In other words, this was all a setup. And no, for the record, I didn’t kill my father. This was all a conspiracy orchestrated by the current Prime Minister, Takaida Kouzou, and his People’s Rights Party. The fact that I’m out now is thanks to the efforts of my capable right-hand man. Though, it’s not unconditional freedom. For the time being, I’m under surveillance by investigators loyal to Takaida, and I’ve been forced to promise not to enter politics using my father’s influence or expose the details of their dealings. They even took my sister as a hostage to make sure I’d comply. As the son of a former Prime Minister, the life I’ve been allowed is one of quietly burning through my inheritance while living in obscurity. Of course, I have no intention of dedicating myself to such a dull, stifling existence. If I let them have their way, this country—already drowning in corruption and greed—will be devoured by its neighbors before anyone realizes it. My relationship with my father was far from perfect. But I always respected his patriotism and ironclad resolve. Not that I’m doing this for his sake—I just can’t stand the idea of letting them win. Now, it’s my turn. "So, where do we start?" "Let’s see… How about we start by dying?"

His father was killed by the current Prime Minister Kozo Takaida, and he was put in solitary confinement for the crime. However, thanks to his talented right-hand man Saki, he was released due to insufficient evidence. However, he was kept under surveillance even after his release, and his sister was taken in by Takaida and is essentially a hostage. To gain complete freedom, Kazuki fakes his death in an accident, disappears, has plastic surgery, changes his name, and begins a new life using what his father left behind and his own connections. He commands women with his somewhat violent charm, which combines wildness and intelligence, and also makes those who looked down on him submit. - **Gender:** Male - **Hair:** Black, Short - **Body:** Young-adult - **Clothes:** Suit - **Personality:** Pretending, Sly - **Eyes:** Teal ### Aramoto Mutsumi (荒本 睦美) She is the daughter of the representative of the Shoseikai, a religious organization supporting the Koheito, which will form a coalition government with the Civil Rights Party. She is not the type to show her emotions, and speaks in a monotone. She is a girl who says what she thinks, and although she is not particularly friendly, she does not have trouble communicating with others. When she is quiet, she is a normal girl, but because the way the cult thinks has become commonplace, she will call other religions "heretical cults" without any ill intentions, and will casually say to people who have suffered misfortune that "they did not have enough faith." The words of her father, the cult's representative, are absolute as the spokesperson for God. Mutsumi's youth and beauty are the perfect poster child for spreading the cult's authority, and she is used to retain and secure believers, called "members," but she herself only thinks of them as "useful." - **Gender:** Female - **Hair:** Black, Short, Pubic Hair - **Body:** Teen, Slim, Pale, Nipple Piercing, Small Breasts - **Clothes:** School Uniform, Knee-high Socks, Chastity Belt - **Eyes:** Violet - **Subject of:** Torture, Pregnancy, Being Drugged, Pillory (BDSM), Enchainment, Sexual Corruption, Netorare (they are the stolen SO) - **Role:** High School Student - **Voiced by:** Kusayanagi Junko ### Ikeda Eri (池田 英理) She is the chief of the investigation section of the Preparation Office for Crackdown on Crimes of Power under the Ministry of Law and Order. It is a newly established department with a very small number of staff, and Eri is dissatisfied with the fact that, contrary to its grand name, it is not expected to do any major work. Like others, Eri has used her connections to get to her current position, but she is quite talented. She is always calm and collected, has an elegant smile, and is a flexible person who can handle anything in an adult manner, but she has a strong sense of justice hidden inside, and she wants to eventually elevate the Preparation Office to an investigation office to secure personnel and strengthen crackdown. Her father is Takaaki Ikeda, a bureaucrat in the Ministry of Law and Order who had close ties with the former prime minister, and she is not particularly happy with the current administration, but she is uncooperative in many ways because she believes that ``Kazuki is a fool, just a prodigal son, unlike his father.'' Eri is used by Kazuki to get Takaaki to move. - **Gender:** Female - **Hair:** Brown, Long, Curtained, Pubic Hair - **Eyes:** Brown - **Body:** Slim, Pale, Young-adult, Linked Piercings, Big Breasts - **Clothes:** Pantyhose, Pendant Necklace, Skirt Suit, Torn Pantyhose (damaged), Bondage Mask - **Subject of:** Torture, Pregnancy, Being Drugged, Pillory (BDSM), Enchainment, Sexual Corruption - **Engages in:** Investigation, Lactation - **Voiced by:** Kasumi Ryou ### Kouzenji Ren (光善寺 恋) The daughter of a bureaucrat in the Ministry of Foreign Affairs, she is a popular young fashion model, talent, and actress. She also works as a weather presenter on Dainichi TV. Some people secretly criticize her for not having any talent as an actress or presenter, and for being an entertainer without any clear goals or passion, but her good looks and gentle demeanor are surprisingly popular with viewers, and thanks to her strong connections, people around her treat her like a sore thumb. However, she is enthusiastic about her work as a symbol of the public interest foundation [JUDEMO (Japanese urgent disaster emergency measures organization)], and in particular, she is always calling for support for children and the eradication of sexual crimes. The reason behind this is her fastidious personality, which was influenced by her upbringing, where she used her permissive parents as bad examples. Naturally, JUDEMO has strong ties with bureaucrats in the Ministry of Foreign Affairs and has become a hotbed of retired government officials. Not only does it make money by diverting the donations it collects, it also serves as a source of funding for the Civil Rights Party's activities. However, Koi is unaware of this fact and is being used as an image character. - **Gender:** Female - **Hair:** Brown, Long, Pubic Hair - **Eyes:** Brown - **Body:** Slim, Pale, Young-adult, Nipple Piercing, Big Breasts - **Clothes:** Dress, Chastity Belt - **Subject of:** Pregnancy, Being Drugged, Pillory (BDSM), Enchainment, Sexual Corruption, Netorare (they are the stolen SO) - **Role:** Model - **Engages in:** Lactation - **Voiced by:** Fujisawa Mitsuki ### Shigino Fubuki (鴫野 吹雪) She is the fiancee of the second-generation president of Okami Pharmaceutical, which donates to the Civil Rights Party , and a senior researcher. She is a proud beauty, and a highly skilled pharmacist. She hates to lose, has a strong desire for honor, and is a capable senior researcher, so she is always surrounded by people. In particular, she has a dignified aura that rarely loses steam, so she has many female friends. She is annoyed by Kazuki, who shows no interest in her (or pretends not to), and as she tries to show off at every opportunity in an attempt to get him to notice her, she becomes fascinated by Kazuki's wild charm, which is different from her serious and boring fiance. - **Gender:** Female - **Hair:** Black, Long, Pubic Hair - **Body:** Slim, Pale, Young-adult, Nipple Piercing, Medium Breasts - **Role:** Betrothed - **Subject of:** Confinement, Being Drugged, Pillory (BDSM), Enchainment, Sexual Corruption, Pregnancy (by illegitimate partner), Netorare (they are the stolen SO) - **Eyes:** Teal - **Voiced by:** Shiina Yooko ### Takaida Yayoi (高井田 弥生) She is the granddaughter of the current Prime Minister, Kozo Takaida. She is a third-year student at Kurasaki Academy and is the student council president. She respects her family, who are all politicians, especially her grandfather, who is also the Prime Minister, and believes that he is an honest, upstanding, and ideal politician like no other. She grew up in a home where she lacked nothing, has excellent grades, is good at sports, is cheerful, and has many friends. However, most of her friends draw a line around her being the Prime Minister's granddaughter, and she has no one she can call her best friend. Although she is not clearly aware of the people around her being considerate of her, she does feel a sense of loneliness, and since she started living with Kagari, she feels like she has found a best friend. As a result of being raised as a sheltered daughter, she ends up falling into the hands of Kazuki. - **Gender:** Female - **Hair:** Brown, Long, Pubic Hair - **Body:** Teen, Slim, Pale, Nipple Piercing, Medium Breasts - **Clothes:** School Uniform, Knee-high Socks, Chastity Belt, Slave Collar - **Eyes:** Violet - **Role:** Granddaughter, High School Student - **Subject of:** Confinement, Pregnancy, Pillory (BDSM), Netorare (they are the stolen SO) - **Voiced by:** Nonomura Saya ### Takatsuki Saki (高槻 沙希) She is the youngest daughter of Takatsuki Seiichi, who served Kazuki's father. Due to their fathers' friendship, Kazuki and Saki have known each other since childhood. She is usually cool and doesn't change her expression, and is the only person who can tell Kazuki off, but no matter how she is treated, she has a strong love and loyalty for Kazuki. This is not just because her father instilled loyalty to the Tsukamoto family in her, but also because she has admired Kazuki since childhood and is grateful to him for saving her life, and it has even become her "meaning of life" that has been accumulated through all sorts of events. The Takatsuki family has served the Tsukamoto family for generations, but her three older sisters did not want to take over Seiichi's business and married into ordinary families, while Saki's desire was strong, so she became the heir and serves Kazuki. Saki's father has commanded her to "leave an heir of noble bloodline and never cut ties with the Tsukamoto family," but she only has eyes for Kazuki and thinks to herself that "the Tsukamoto family also falls into the category of noble families." - **Gender:** Female - **Hair:** Black, Bob Cut, Short, Pubic Hair - **Eyes:** Violet - **Body:** Young-adult, Small Breasts - **Clothes:** Suit, Glasses, Strap-on Dildo - **Subject of:** Pregnancy - **Voiced by:** Toudou Misaki ### Tatiana Kadumakov (タチアナ =カドゥマコフ) A pure-bred Russian beauty with fair skin and big breasts. She is an intelligence agent dispatched to Japan on a mission from the Russian Foreign Intelligence Service. Her role is to "quickly detect and prevent the actions of groups attempting to intervene in the Northern Territories." Particularly concerning for Russia is the presence of such groups in Hokkaido, and since she needs a public face, she has been assigned as the Deputy Consul General at the Russian Consulate General in Sapporo for the past three years. Although Tatyana understands the importance of her mission, she secretly feels jealous of her colleagues—agents sent to the Russian Embassy in Tokyo for "gathering information on diplomatic negotiations," who seem to be in more glamorous positions.

She looked up to her brother and was very attached to him, but they haven't seen each other since he was imprisoned. She is strong-willed and has lived her life despite the misfortunes of her family, but her original lively personality has faded. She is currently taken in by the Takaida family and attends Kurasaki Academy with Yayoi. At first, she felt annoyed by Yayoi, who was unaware that she was being taken in as a hostage, and by Yayoi's mother, who warmly welcomed her, but she is gradually beginning to like them less. After being released from prison, she was shocked by the news of her brother's death and tended to withdraw into herself, but at the same time she was relieved to hear that he was alive, she was also torn between the Takaida family and the two parties involved, which caused her anguish. - **Gender:** Female - **Hair:** Black, Shoulder-length, Pubic Hair - **Body:** Teen, Slim, Pale, Nipple Piercing, Medium Breasts - **Clothes:** School Uniform, Knee-high Socks, Strap-on Dildo, Slave Collar - **Role:** Full Sister, High School Student, Younger Sister - **Subject of:** Confinement, Pregnancy, Being Drugged, Pillory (BDSM), Sexual Corruption - **Eyes:** Teal - **Voiced by:** Azuma Karin ### Aramoto Takeshi (荒本 武) He is the representative of the "Shoseikai", a religious group that supports the Kohei Party. He prides himself on being God's representative, stating that contributing to peace and rescuing the poor are roles given to him by God, and he has enthusiastic support from members nationwide due to the mysterious charisma of his daughter Mutsumi. However, he has also been criticized by both his followers and outside for his aggressive solicitation, strict rules that do not allow withdrawal, ties with political groups that could lead to interference in politics, and income from his position as a religious corporation. He also runs a school called "Shosei Gakuen" and serves as its chairman. - **Gender:** Male - **Hair:** Black, Short - **Eyes:** Brown - **Body:** Adult - **Voiced by:** Ueki Tooru ### Ikeda Takaaki (池田 孝明) He is a Ministry of Law bureaucrat who was friends with the late former Prime Minister Tsukamoto, the protagonist's father, and Eiri's father. He is a very stubborn person, and many politicians do not want to get close to him. He is not particularly happy with the current administration, but he believes that the results will be the same no matter which party takes power, and has not shown any proactive moves since former Prime Minister Tsukamoto passed away. He is also not shy about saying publicly that "Tsukamoto's son is just a prodigal son who didn't inherit any of his father's good qualities," making him a very troublesome person for Kazuki, who needs his cooperation. - **Gender:** Male - **Hair:** Short, Beard, Moustache, Grey - **Eyes:** Brown - **Body:** Adult - **Clothes:** Suit ### Takaida Kouzou (高井田 幸造) He is the current Prime Minister and Yayoi's grandfather. Thanks to his wife working for a major company, he gained authority within the Minkento Party and rose to the position of leader. For many years, he had been suffering under the influence of the largest political party, the Shinminto Party, but when the overly strict Tsukamoto became leader and prime minister, he seized the opportunity and used a conspiracy to drive Tsukamoto to his death and take his place. Like most politicians, he has a strong obsession with money and fame, and is a ruthless person who will do anything to achieve his goals, but he loves his daughter and granddaughter and does not want to show them his dirty side. Because of this, he raised his daughter and granddaughter in a sheltered environment, which made him a target for Kazuki. - **Gender:** Male - **Hair:** Brown, Short - **Eyes:** Black - **Body:** Adult - **Clothes:** Suit ### Takatsuki Seiichi (高槻 誠一) He served Kazuki's father, former Prime Minister Tsukamoto Moritaka. The Tsukamoto and Takatsuki families have a long relationship, with generations of politicians and secretaries on friendly terms, and Seiichi is no exception, showing great friendship and loyalty to Moritaka. He deeply regrets that Moritaka lost his life despite being with him, and, believing that "we must protect Moritaka's son at least," he did everything in his power to secure Kazuki's release, along with his daughter Saki. He thoroughly taught Saki about the history and relationship with the Tsukamoto family, telling her to be loyal throughout her life and to produce an heir so as not to break the relationship between the two families. - **Gender:** Male - **Hair:** Short, Beard, Grey - **Eyes:** Brown - **Body:** Adult - **Items:** Smoking Pipe ### Yamagaki Sadaji (山垣 貞次) After the death of former Prime Minister Tsukamoto, he rose to become the president of the Shinminto Party. He lacks the sense of justice of former president Tsukamoto, but he is not a corrupt politician intent on lining his own pockets either, so he is a man who lacks impact. Many lawmakers say that the reason they are unable to take back the government that was seized by the Minkento Party is because Yamagaki is lacking in vitality. - **Gender:** Male - **Hair:** Brown, Short -
