Akira’s Cover

"Everyone has an end result?" Akira repeated thoughtfully. "Does that include me?"

"Well, you're not the original character like me, so probably not?" I rubbed my chin thoughtfully. "More importantly, the hidden character status is still unknown. He should be included, right?" Glossing over Akira, I focused on the hidden character.

"He's included but not me?" Akira sulked.

"You're not a capture target, and you know it. So stop being ridiculous." I waved him off as we headed to the infirmary.

"Hey, I could still be the hidden character." Akira pointed out. "You still haven't found him."

He's right.

But even if that was the case, wouldn't his ending just be a friendship kind of ending at this point? Akira doesn't hold any romantic feelings for me that border on insanity. There would be nothing to worry about if Akira was the hidden character...

How nice that would be.
