Occupation: Works at a major trading company
Hobby: Putting together spices
Chikage comes across as friendly and sociable at first, but there's something off about him—something deliberately mysterious. He's Itaru's senior at an elite trading company and spends a lot of time traveling for work, which has made him fluent in multiple languages. Despite his outwardly polite demeanor, nobody can really pin down when he's being genuine and when he's spinning a story.
He's shrewd and cunning, always keeping his composure. The guy claims he's just an ordinary salaryman, but it's pretty obvious there's more going on beneath the surface. He's even admitted that he lies sometimes because he's afraid of seeming weak. It's the kind of thing that makes you wonder what he's actually hiding—and whether he's lying about that too.
