I just really love the mutual antagonism between the MC and ML. The author handles it really well, and I don't feel like the MC is weak or needs to be sheltered from the 'big bad' ML, since they both have very strong personalities.Spoiler
I find it really amusing how the ML insists to himself that he's straight while he's obsessed with trying to find a way to look at the MC's private parts without getting killed for his audacity, to see if they are as beautiful as the rest of him.
ML clearly acknowledges to himself that his interest in the MC goes beyond the bounds of normal behavior for a straight man, but when he sort of brings up the issue to his dad, he gets a typical clueless straight guy reassurance that his obsession is actually just his loyalty to the Emperor (the MC.)
