Advantages and Doubts
The moment that Kamille embraced him, even if it was accidentally, Rise's heart instantly rejoiced. There were not a few such intimate and close moments with him in his memories, but his heart always skipped a beat, wanting for such moments to not end.
Even as they almost stumbled because of him, Rise still did not stop guiding Kamille. He guided Kamille with practiced ease and efficiency, as if he had done it many times before.
"I also don't know," Rise grinned, his tone light despite sounding sincere. "I'm an Esper, though. And, maybe, you can also say, I'm also a Guide."
As he claimed, Rise would not lie to Kamille. And this identity was also accidentally discovered because of Kamille and this ability of his.
Rise did not even know he was Guide until almost a year later of pursuing Kamille, just like their situation now, Kamille was also forced to use his ability then, and it just happened that Rise was the only one with him then.
