"Is that how you're supposed to eat it!" The thin slice of Memory Toast was quickly consumed by Ruri's tender little mouth. Apparently, she liked the taste and reached out for a few more slices to enjoy. Ho Fei-yu quickly stopped her.
"Hmph! Stingy Onii-chan!" Ruri Hazama puffed up her cheeks, put the remaining slices of Memory Toast back where they belonged, and complained sadly.
"Alright, let me see if it works. Listen up, Ruri-chan, what comes after 'In the haze'?" Ho Fei-yu glanced at the page he had just turned to in the Language Arts book, picking a random sentence to ask. He had gone through this himself. He had even studied all the junior high school textbooks within a year of waking up and scored well. Of course, this was largely due to his improved memory, but also his study habits from his past life—it was a dimensional attack.
"'In the haze, a stretch of green beach unfolded before my eyes, and a golden full moon hung in the deep blue sky above. I thought: Hope is inherently neither existent nor non-existent. It is just like paths on the earth; originally, there were no paths on the earth, but when many people walk, a path is formed.'" Ruri Hazama heard Ho Fei-yu's question and initially planned to muddle through. But for some unknown reason, the complete passage inexplicably appeared in her mind. She knew exactly where the pauses and emphases were in the original text and continued without conscious thought.
"Ah!?? I actually answered it?? And not a single word wrong, hahaha! I, Ruri Hazama, am amazing! Hahaha! From now on, I will always ride on Ho Fei-yu's head, hahaha!" Ruri Hazama's expression froze after answering. She immediately took the textbook and examined it closely, then mumbled to herself, followed by an arrogant laugh.
"...Stop dreaming of impossible things. What comes after 'behind the many dry grasses on the corrugated roof'?" Ho Fei-yu was speechless, realizing the little girl's first thought after gaining power was to ride on his head. To curb Ruri Hazama's arrogance, Ho Fei-yu turned forward a page and asked.
"Uh... The... the many dry grasses on the corrugated roof... is... is..."
"Brother Fei-yu, I'm sorry~ I promise I won't ride on your head when I'm successful~ Tell me how you did it, please~ I'll let you taste my feet tonight, okay~" Ruri Hazama, who had tried for a long time but couldn't recall the answer, noticed the teasing smile on Ho Fei-yu's face. She immediately held onto Ho Fei-yu's arm and begged playfully, putting her small face close to him and showing a pitiful expression. Hmph! If I can't ride on your head, I'll ride on your body! she thought wickedly.
"Ahem... I'm not helping you to taste your feet. It's just because you're my silly little sister." Ho Fei-yu felt the girl's small pigeon breasts constantly brushing against his arm, making his heart race. He quickly spoke seriously.
"Oh~"
"Alright, actually, it's all because of this toast."
"This toast?" Ruri Hazama tilted her head in confusion.
"Yes, all you have to do is stick it onto the material you want to learn. In a few seconds, the content will appear on the toast. Then you eat it, and you've instantly learned it, and you'll never forget it. Try another one." Ho Fei-yu explained to Ruri Hazama while sticking another slice of Memory Toast onto the textbook and handing it to the girl.
Ruri Hazama quickly ate it. Sure enough, familiar yet unfamiliar knowledge appeared in her mind shortly after.
"Thank you, Fei-yu Onii-chan! Brother is too good to me~ I love Onii-chan so much~ Smooch... Smooch... Ngh~" The magical effect shocked the girl. She realized that if she used this method in the future, she could escape being a dummy and become a legendary A student! And all of this was given to her by her favorite brother. Thinking of this, the girl could no longer control her feelings and joy. She pounced on Ho Fei-yu, kissing him from his collarbone all the way to his cheek, finally prying open Ho Fei-yu's mouth.
"Thank you, Brother Fei-yu~" Ruri Hazama only released Ho Fei-yu's lips when she felt she was running out of breath. After resting for a bit, she licked the corner of Ho Fei-yu's mouth like a clingy kitten.
"Who told you you're my silly little sister? If I don't take care of you, who will?" Ho Fei-yu wrapped his arms around Ruri Hazama's slender waist. The girl's figure was petite, not as voluptuous as Hana Tenkawa's, but full of bony structure, with distinct angles.
"Mhm." The girl stopped licking, staring at Ho Fei-yu without blinking.
"Hehe~ Fei-yu Onii-chan, do you want to permanently remember the scent of your little sister's feet~" Before Ho Fei-yu could feel tired of Ruri Hazama's gaze, the girl said with a little demon smile, as if she had thought of something.
"This..." Ho Fei-yu rubbed his head, wondering how to remember the scent of her feet, but he was very interested... Cough, cough.
"Watch this~" Ruri Hazama got off Ho Fei-yu. She took two thin slices of toast and bent down, pulling off her white socks. Since she hadn't been wearing slippers earlier, she worried there might be dust, which would ruin the original scent of her feet.
"Fei-yu Onii-chan~" Ruri Hazama sat down not far from Ho Fei-yu, moving both her feet onto the sofa. She placed one of her feet between the two slices of toast, like a sandwich. Then she extended it toward Ho Fei-yu, looking at him expectantly.
"....." Ho Fei-yu hadn't expected the girl to do something like this. He suddenly didn't know what to do. Although he was a severe foot fetishist, Ruri Hazama's action was truly bold.
"Hiss—"
"Eat it~ Eat it~ Doesn't Brother Fei-yu love eating feet the most? Why are you hesitating~" Seeing Ho Fei-yu's indecision, Ruri Hazama used her hand to shake her foot back and forth in front of Ho Fei-yu. It was exhausting for her to keep her foot high and hold her waist up, so she urged him.
"Alright." 'It won't actually permanently remember...' Ho Fei-yu seemed to have made a decision. He looked at the sandwich in front of him and, disgracefully, swallowed his saliva. Damn this damn preference. He opened his mouth, and white, viscous strands of saliva stretched between his teeth. He slowly moved toward the sandwich. As the distance closed, a shackle called shyness seemed to be breaking...
Five minutes later.
"How is it, Fei-yu Onii-chan, was it tasty?" Ruri Hazama wiggled her foot. Some toast crumbs stuck to her foot felt uncomfortable. She wanted to wash her feet quickly. Although she had taken a shower before her nap that afternoon, it still felt strange. However, she was more concerned with whether Ho Fei-yu had permanently remembered her scent.
"Cough, cough... It didn't have much flavor. Don't have such bizarre ideas again. If you applied your strange ideas to studying, you wouldn't need me to find ways to cheat for you." Ho Fei-yu wiped the corner of his mouth. Besides the toast's natural fresh milk flavor, there was the girl's innocent scent. He did have the girl's scent in his mind, but he wasn't sure if it was because of the Memory Toast. Regardless, he decided this shouldn't happen again, so Ho Fei-yu spoke sternly.
"Oh~ Alright, I'm going to wash my feet. It's just the two of us tonight~ Mother and Sister shouldn't bother us tonight~" Before leaving, Ruri Hazama spoke to Ho Fei-yu suggestively.
