Chronology
Honoka Takamiya is a student of Tougetsu Academy. He sits next to Ayaka Kagari, the school Princess. He always wondered why he and Ayaka always end up on taking same bus everyday. One day during his cleaning duty he gets attacked by Tanpopo Kuraishi and get saved by Ayaka. She says to him that she protected him because he is her princess and informs him that she will protect him openly after that incident.

Next day onwards, Ayaka starts to mingle with him in public; much to other students chagrin. Later he gets attacked by Tanpopo, who gets easily defeated by Ayaka. When Tanpopo and her four comrades transfers to her class he shows concern. When he goes to school next day he finds Ayaka torturing Tanpopo and  her gang except Menowa Mei. Then he gets kidnapped by Menowa who injures his neck. To his surprise, the damage appears on Ayaka. Later he is saved by Ayaka again. In order to defend himself he asks Ayaka to teach him magic. After that ,during holiday, he is called by Ayaka to buy magic cloths and equipment for him. During that time he is spotted by some tower witches, who try to capture him. Ayaka intervenes and defeats them. After that he is taken to meet head of workshop witches who is none other than Ayaka's mother and school chairwoman Kazane Kagari. She gives him the permission to be Ayaka's apprentice.

In school they are again attacked by Tanpopo and her gang, and get defeated in an instant. Ayaka also gives Honoka books to study school subjects since that is also part of his training. After school when they traveling in a bus they are greeted by Chronoire Schwarz VI and her servant. She immobilize Ayaka and stabs Honoka in the stomach, to hurt Ayaka and show him how damage transfer works. She gives Honoka a toffee, which can unlock his white power. Ayaka regains strength and attack Chronoire but she escapes. Honoka takes Ayaka to treat her wounds. Later Honoka begins to learn magic.

During training, Honoka sees some thugs bullying a girl. He tries to help her even after Ayaka asks him not to meddle with normal civilian affairs. But he crashes down from his broom. When thugs try to hurt him Ayaka uses her power and helps him. She informs him that she is not intruding, and that these "... bullies ..." are instead actual Tower Witches, laying a trap for him; which allows her to intervene.

Ayaka Kagari
Ayaka is always shown to be traveling in the same bus and sitting besides him in his class. Their cleaning duty is also at the same time. It is unknown to him that Ayaka is protecting him from other tower witches prior to the revelation of witches. Since Ayaka is always surrounded by her fans, he has always wished to get a new seating arrangement. He is romantically interested in her.

After he knows about witches and Ayaka is willing to be with him openly, the hate from her fans has increased and he is hesitant to be with Ayaka. He is very protective about her and doesn't want to see her get hurt. He believes in her but wishes that she tells him the truth about him. Later he asks her to teach him magic so that when time comes he can protect himself.

Later in the series, it is revealed that their mothers arranged things so that they will get married in future. It is also hinted that both of them know each other from an earlier time, but all that remains is a feeling of wanting to be around each other, and that the other is "safe" to be around. Ayaka seems to have retained a strong desire to guard her "princess", but even she has no idea why.

If anyone had to make a guess, the spirit of Ayaka knew Evermillion, in a previous age. This would explain her feelings towards the protection of Evermillion's container "Honoka Takamiya". One wonders if the spirit of Honoka, was also around; or will Ayaka's loyalty to the container fall away, with the perminent release unto the World, of Evermillion.
