That's right, the blue-haired "girl" was none other than Hoshi Amami who was wearing female clothes and a fake one.
"Heh heh, as expected, you saw through me …" Hoshi covered his head and stuck out his tongue as he chuckled.
"Of course you saw through me, idiot!" Seiji punched him again.
"It hurts …"
"Then please don't do this!! I really want to send you flying with a kick right now!!? "
"But Senpai said yesterday that he was looking forward to the classic scene of a confession … I just wanted to make it up to him." Hoshi covered his head with both hands and half-crouched with tears in his eyes.
"Make it up to you! Being confessed to like this by a boy!! I'm going to be traumatized!!! Also, stop acting cute, you bastard!! "
Seiji's roar echoed throughout the rooftop and shook the heavens.
'Fine, I'll give him a minute to calm down.'
...
The one-minute cooldown period was over.
Seiji was finally able to calmly face Hoshi who had taken off his mask.
"Where did you get the clothes and the fake one?"
"I borrowed them from a classmate in the drama club, and then I found out that she knew Wakaba -senpai, so I asked her to contact her and ask her for a favor …"
"I see."
Seiji's face twitched slightly as he recalled Chiaki's strange smile and felt the urge to beat her up again.
It was a scheme after all, damn it!
"Honestly, seeing something like this so early in the morning … I'm so tired."
"But … Wakaba -senpai said that Senpai would be happy to see something like this?" Hoshi rubbed his fingers together.
"Chiaki!!"
The evidence was conclusive, and she was found guilty. 'I'll beat her up later!' Seiji clenched his fists tightly.
"I won't be happy! Even though traps are cute, they're only 2-D for me!! "
"Oh … What a pity, I'm quite confident …"
"What a pity! Don't be so confident in such a strange place!! "
"But this is natural."
"That's true! But don't you want to be more masculine!? "
"Yeah, even so …" Hoshi smiled, "I'm starting to think that being a girl isn't so bad after all."
"Stop! If you dare to speak like this again!! Be careful, or I'll really kick you away!!! "Seiji cursed with all his might.
I knew Senpai would complain like this. Hoshi smiled as he thought to himself.
But this is how I feel, Senior.
I can't express my gratitude and longing for you enough.
If there is an afterlife, I want to reincarnate as a girl …
But in this life, I am a boy.
Therefore …
"I'm just joking. I'm a man after all, so … I'll become stronger in the future." Hoshi looked directly at Hoshi. "Work hard to improve yourself and become stronger. Become … someone who has the right to become Senpai's junior!"
Seiji was stunned for a moment.
He could see the determination in Hoshi's eyes.
There was a moment of silence.
"What qualifications? You're my junior, aren't you?" Seiji smiled, averted his gaze, and looked beyond the fence.
"But you have the determination to become stronger. Very good."
"You just have to maintain this spirit. Don't forget your momentum. Take a step forward."
"Yeah …" Hoshi also turned around and looked outside the fence.
The two of them stared into the distance in silence for a while.
"How … is the situation?" Seiji broke the silence.
"My sisters … are going to leave home and temporarily live with Grandpa and Grandma," Hoshi said softly.
"As for me … I'm also going to leave home and live together with Aunt Rika."
Seiji raised his eyebrows in surprise.
"What about your parents?"
"Grandpa wants them to reflect on themselves and figure out whether they want to get a divorce or continue living together … something like that."
Another period of silence fell between them.
"It seems that you guys had a very powerful family meeting."
"Yep, according to Senpai's information, we went to find Aunt Rika and told her everything, and then … Aunt went to find Grandpa and Grandma, and then Uncle.
Grandpa and Grandma … are really dignified. Father … is quite afraid of them. "Hoshi smiled.
"If I could see the truth earlier and ask Aunt Rika, Grandpa and Uncle … for help, things wouldn't have become like this today."
Seiji was rendered speechless.
"I regret it … but I also think that it's great that things didn't get worse.
My sisters truly want to change for the better. They … will definitely become better under Grandpa and Grandma's supervision in the future.
"Under uncle's supervision, father and mother will also reflect on their actions."
I'll continue working at Aunt Rika's store and train myself more so that I can become stronger. "
Hoshi's smile became even more radiant as he looked at the tall figure beside him again.
"And I think that the best part is meeting you, Senpai.
Although I've suffered a lot in the past, if I think of it as something that I had to go through to meet Senpai, I can accept it. "
'Thank you for saving me.
'Thank you for saving my sisters.
'Thank you for preventing my entire family from falling into an unsalvageable abyss.
'Thank you for everything you've done … thank this world for allowing me to meet you.'
Seiji smiled as he turned around to look at the figure beside him.
"Don't make it sound like I'm some incredible person, idiot.
I'm just your Senpai and your friend, that's all. "
That was all.
This was just another story that was all.
Hoshi smiled. The smile on his face right now was the happiest smile he'd ever had in his entire life!
Hoshi couldn't help but tear up again.
'Ahh! I wanted to hold it in; I didn't want to make such an unsightly appearance of crying in front of this person.'
However, he couldn't stop his tears.
"Thank you … Senpai …"
"You're finally not apologizing anymore. That's an improvement."
Seiji took a good look at Hoshi's face, which was smiling brilliantly but also silently crying.
Then, he averted his gaze, turned around, and walked away.
"I've received your thanks.
No need to be so polite, junior. "
He casually waved his hand and left.
Hoshi made a deep impression on Hoshi's handsome back as he slowly bowed deeply.
…
* Ding! * A system notification rang out.
Words appeared in front of him.
[A male character's friendship level has exceeded 100. The 'Friendship' option has been activated. You can now see the friendship level of the male character you befriend. Also, if a male character with a friendship level above 60 gives you an item that contains emotions, you'll also receive points or items from the 'Gift' option.
[A character's friendship level or friendship level has exceeded 100. You've received a character reward card for this character.]
Seiji was rendered speechless.
'Damn, a friendship level … whoops, a friendship level of 100!?'
This … it had to be Hoshi.
If 1 friendship level was equivalent to 1 friendship level, then this value … was even higher than Mika's friendship level!!
Seiji received yet another shock from his system.
Male characters actually had a friendship level, and their friendship level could even exceed 100 …
Mika's friendship level of over 90 was already at the level where she could be intimate with Hoshi at any time, so what did it mean for Hoshi's friendship level to exceed 100?
'Heavens, stop thinking about it!
Hoshi Amami! Your friendship level is so heavy!! '
Seiji covered his face in speechlessness.
It was a good thing that the new option had been activated, but his current feelings … were indescribable!
'Malice … this is your malice, isn't it!?
You're just a freaking mega game system, yet you have a 'Friendship' option!? If this wasn't malice, what else could it be!? '
If Seiji's inner screams were transformed into actual sounds, his screams would probably pierce through the heavens!
He needed three more minutes to calm himself down.
No, in three minutes, Hoshi should be coming down as well …
Seiji could only sigh as he continued walking downstairs.
He should have been happy that a new option had appeared, but he didn't have the slightest intention of inspecting it.
As he walked downstairs, he suddenly noticed two identical beautiful girls standing at the bottom of the stairwell.
