Mushiki "Mukkun, Nii-sama" Kuga
About
Mushiki Kuga is the main protagonist of King's Proposal. He is a ordinary high schooler who has inherited the body and identity of Saika Kuozaki and is assuming them to retain order at Void Garden.
Mushiki, in his original form, appears as an average height young androgynous looking boy in his teens with messy white hair and sky blue eyes. After becoming a student of Void's garden himself, he is given the male student uniform.
Due to an incident involving him and Saika, Mushiki's consciousness has now fused with Saika's body, thus sharing her appearance.
Mushiki has a personality of a typical teenager: getting flustered by unknown situation and girls, and becoming serious whenever needed to. He is also extremely soft-spoken and spoke in a very polite way of speaking. He notably shows a very strong admiration for Saika Kuozaki, describing himself to fall in love with her at first sight and described her in a flamboyant and excited manner whenever she is mentioned, much to Kuroe Karasuma's apparent disgust. While at first Mushiki can be seen as quite simple-minded he actually not as dumb as we've seen earlier because he managed to deduce that Kuroe is actually Saika in disguise by himself at the end of Volume 1. Before they parted ways because of currently unknown circumstances, it is stated that Mushiki is a good older brother for his younger sister Ruri, which is proven by her having a very fond memory of him.
Assuming Saika's body, Mushiki is forced to also adapt to her personality quirks in order to assume her identity.
In Volume 1, on his way back to home, Mushiki suddenly stumbles in a strange space where he discovers a mysterious girl near-death and collapsed onto the ground. Despite the grotesque imaginary invoked with her injuries, Mushiki falls in love with the girl's beauty. After realizing the girl is still barely alive, he tries to help her, only to be struck down from behind by the girl's mysterious attacker. Upon waking up, he finds himself in an unknown room.
Mushiki's powers as a magician first manifested in his childhood to save himself and Ruri from a Destruction Factor. However, due to Ruri's deal with the Fuyajo family, Mushiki was mind wiped of remembering ever using his powers, and he lived a normal life. Fusing with Saika's body awakened his latent powers, but as a magician, Mushiki is still a novice and can only use up to his personal Second Manifestation when his emotions become heated. In Saika mode, he is able to access the full raw strength of Saika's magic, but his skills lack finesse and control.
