Hearing Shiki Natsu's sudden proposal, Asahina Nazuna couldn't help but freeze for a mont.
Her watery eyes widened slightly, staring straight at Shiki Natsu, seemingly trying to confirm if the young man before her was playing so kind of bad-taste joke on her.
However, Shiki Natsu's gaze was clear and open, and the corners of his mouth held a just-right gentle arc. He didn't look like he was lying or teasing at all.
Looking at the boy's serious expression, Asahina Nazuna's heart, which had been relatively calm, actually beca sowhat flustered.
She had heard that massage techniques could be used for treatnt, but... it was only hearsay.
Moreover...
Massage usually implied direct skin contact. Although when Shiki Natsu carried her back last night, his hands had touched her thighs, letting Shiki Natsu massage her twisted foot felt like a young girl handing over her foot for the other party to play with.
Quite shaful!
Can a young girl's foot be touched so casually?
For a girl, feet are a rather private and sensitive part.
And a cute beautiful girl's little feet definitely aren't slly!
In the eyes of so people, they even reach 'food grade'.
Regardless of what others thought, Asahina Nazuna cared quite a lot about her feet anyway.
Especially knowing that her feet were going to be massaged by a boy she had known for less than two days felt very strange!
For a mont, Asahina Nazuna didn't know how to answer. A wave of heat surged up her neck to her cheeks; her face turned rosy instantly, and her hands unconsciously gripped the bedsheet beneath her, looking both nervous and sowhat shy.
Thinking about it carefully, this was only their second eting.
Although there was a significant period of contact when he carried her back last night... thinking of this, the girl felt her thighs warm up slightly, as if they were being supported by Shiki Natsu's hands.
Shiki Natsu was indeed very handso, and she didn't dislike Shiki Natsu; rather, she had a favorable impression of him.
But isn't this progress a bit too fast?
"...Cough."
Asahina Nazuna coughed lightly, paying a bit of attention to those increasingly improper thoughts in her mind, and tried hard to make her voice sound calr.
"Shiki-kouhai, can you really use massage techniques to treat a sprain?"
"Of course it's true."
Shiki Natsu nodded, looking at Asahina Nazuna with a hint of a smile.
"Does Asahina-senpai believe or not?"
"..."
Asahina Nazuna bit her lower lip, still very hesitant!
This wasn't sothing she could make up her mind about in just a sentence or two!
However... her foot was still hurting right now. If it continued to hurt, that wouldn't be a solution either, right? Asahina Nazuna convinced herself.
Finally, as if possessed by a ghost, she nodded in agreent.
"Then... I'll trouble you, Shiki-kouhai."
"Okay, then Senpai, sit tight and don't move."
Shiki Natsu smiled faintly, squatted halfway down very naturally, and ca to the bedside.
He reached out his hand, gently held Asahina Nazuna's injured left foot, and cautiously lifted it, placing it on his knee.
She wasn't wearing socks.
Because the injury was red and swollen and needed to breathe, that exquisite jade foot was displayed unreservedly before Shiki Natsu's eyes.
It had to be said, this was truly a very good-looking foot, and it was quite clean; it had been washed.
The skin was as delicate and smooth as fine mutton-fat jade, revealing a healthy, faint pink color.
The five toes were rounded and cute, the nails trimd neatly and coated with a layer of transparent nail polish, slightly glistening.
Even with the obvious redness and swelling at the ankle, it couldn't hide this beauty that resembled a work of art in the slightest.
When Shiki Natsu's warm palm touched that slightly cool skin, Asahina Nazuna couldn't help but tremble slightly. So shaful!
"It might hurt a little, and there might also be so strange sensations. Bear with it a little."
Shiki Natsu reminded her in a low voice.
"Mn..."
Asahina Nazuna responded with a voice as small as a mosquito's, subconsciously closing her eyes, her long eyelashes trembling uneasily.
The next second, Shiki Natsu's fingers began to move.
He didn't press directly on the red and swollen area but first wrapped his hands around the entire foot, using the warmth of his palms to warm the sowhat cold skin.
Shiki Natsu's fingers were slender and powerful. When they slid across that tender sole, an indescribable numbing sensation instantly shot straight to her forehead.
"Wu..."
Asahina Nazuna couldn't help but let out an extrely suppressed soft hum.
That feeling was too strange.
It was like electric currents were running wild inside her body. As Shiki Natsu's thumbs began to press and knead on specific acupoints, a stream of warm air began to spread at the ankle.
The original stinging sensation gradually disappeared, replaced by a sore and swollen, yet unusually comfortable feeling of clarity.
Shiki Natsu's technique was extrely professional. Every slide of his fingertips, every rub of his palms made Asahina Nazuna's heartbeat accelerate a few notches.
Asahina Nazuna felt her face was already hot enough to burn. She didn't dare open her eyes. If this shaful expression was seen, she really wouldn't have the face to see anyone. Mn, as long as she closed her eyes and didn't see, it was equivalent to Shiki Natsu not seeing.
After a while.
"Done."
Shiki Natsu's voice sounded steady as always. He wasn't a foot fetishist, so he wouldn't get excited just by massaging a beautiful girl's little foot.
"Senpai, how do you feel?"
Asahina Nazuna slowly opened her eyes, that feeling as if a lifeti had passed made her slightly dazed.
She subconsciously moved her left foot.
"?"
She looked at her ankle in disbelief, tried rotating it, and then forcefully straightened her instep.
It didn't hurt anymore.
It really didn't hurt at all!
The pain that would pierce her heart with just a slight movent earlier had now vanished without a trace, as if she had never been injured.
"This... How is this possible?"
Asahina Nazuna looked at Shiki Natsu in utter astonishnt, her rosy little mouth slightly open.
"Shiki-kun... Kouhai, you... you really know how?"
"Senpai didn't believe yet still let massage her?"
Shiki Natsu looked at Asahina Nazuna playfully and chuckled, instantly making the girl's cheeks flush red again. Put this way, it sounded like she simply let Shiki Natsu take advantage of her because he was good-looking.
"Since Shiki-kouhai has this kind of ability, then why didn't you co over and help press it last night? Making suffer in bed all day today; I didn't even dare to go to the toilet much."
Asahina Nazuna looked at Shiki Natsu with so resentnt.
If she had known earlier that he had this unique skill, she wouldn't have had to suffer through this day.
"If I entered Senpai's room last night and proposed to massage Senpai, would Senpai have agreed?"
"...Definitely not."
Asahina Nazuna answered without even thinking.
They had just t yesterday. If he dared to make such a request, she would definitely have treated him as a pervert or a lecher with ulterior motives.
"Then there you have it."
Shiki Natsu shrugged, looking innocent.
"After all, we only t for the first ti last night. That kind of request would indeed be too rude."
"Well, today is only the second eting too."
Asahina Nazuna blinked those large, spirited eyes, leaned her body slightly forward, and retorted sowhat unconvinced.
"Why did Shiki-kouhai dare to say such words about massaging a girl's foot on the second eting? Is your courage growing a bit too fast?"
Speaking of this, she put on a sowhat little-devil-like expression, the corners of her mouth curling into a mischievous smile, seemingly wanting to see Shiki Natsu look embarrassed.
However, Shiki Natsu's expression remained very calm.
"Because I knew that Asahina-senpai's foot had been hurting for a whole day.
"And..."
Shiki Natsu pointed to the stack of neatly organized study materials and notes nearby.
"In order to help , Senpai specially endured the pain to help prepare these review materials, and even highlighted the key points for the first year for .
"Senpai treats so well, so naturally, I must repay Senpai. Of course, that Senpai would agree was still beyond my expectations. I didn't expect my evaluation in Senpai's heart to be quite good."
Hearing this, Asahina Nazuna turned her face away. Her face was very red. What was he saying? 'Evaluation in her heart is quite good'—that was a bit too ambiguous.
She tried to stand up from the bed, her feet stepping on the soft carpet.
She took two steps slightly, and even tried a small jump.
It really didn't hurt at all!
Not only that, but the massaged area also had a warm feeling, and her legs seed lighter and more powerful than when walking usually.
It was truly extrely magical.
"Shiki-kun, where on earth did you learn this massage technique? This is too amazing, isn't it?"
Asahina Nazuna couldn't help asking curiously. Even so professionals couldn't achieve such imdiate results, right?
"Well... it's a secret."
Shiki Natsu chuckled lightly.
Just kidding. This was a God-Tier skill given by the System. He couldn't just directly tell her he was a cheater, could he?
"Alright, since I've cured Senpai's foot, I should say goodbye too."
Shiki Natsu glanced at the ti and picked up the stack of materials on the table.
"I still have to go back and seize the ti to review."
"Um... to thank you for curing my foot, how about I treat you to dinner?"
"No need, I already ate when I ca."
Shiki Natsu shook his head and tactfully refused.
"Then... okay."
Asahina Nazuna didn't insist. She just stood at the door and waved to Shiki Natsu very seriously.
"Do your best, Shiki-kouhai. You must defeat Miyabi!"
"Mn."
Shiki Natsu smiled confidently, turned around, and walked into the elevator.
Watching Shiki Natsu's departing back, Asahina Nazuna couldn't help but sigh with emotion. Shiki Natsu actually really didn't have any ulterior motives towards her, and he left directly after finishing the treatnt.
For a mont, Asahina Nazuna began to doubt whether she had any charm instead.
...
anwhile, inside Kamuro Masumi's dorm room, a visitor had arrived.
"Good evening, Kamuro-san."
Sakayanagi Arisu greeted Kamuro Masumi, who opened the door, with that consistent elegant smile on her face as if she grasped everything.
"What do you want with ?"
Kamuro Masumi frowned slightly, looking at Sakayanagi Arisu. Based on her understanding of Sakayanagi Arisu, this guy definitely didn't co for anything good.
"Don't be so cold."
Sakayanagi Arisu chuckled lightly, seemingly not minding the other party's attitude.
"I was just sowhat curious. Does Kamuro-san know that Shiki-san will soon have a very interesting betting duel with Vice President Nagumo Miyabi from the second year?"
Hearing about this matter, a flash of confusion passed through Kamuro Masumi's eyes.
Clearly, she wasn't aware of it.
Sakayanagi Arisu's keen eyes easily captured this confusion.
"It seems Kamuro-san knows nothing at all."
The smile at the corners of her mouth deepened a few degrees. She was very pleased. Kamuro Masumi, this little follower who always stayed by Shiki Natsu's side, didn't even know about such a thing. It seed she was still superior.
"In that case, let show so kindness and tell you what happened.
"...During the midterm exam, Shiki-san will not only have to do the first-year papers but also the second-year papers. And Nagumo-senpai will also do the third-year papers. Ultimately, the two will decide the winner based on the scores of this level-skipping challenge.
"If he loses, the price will be very high."
Sakayanagi Arisu wanted to see a panicked expression on Kamuro Masumi's face.
However, she was disappointed.
After listening, Kamuro Masumi didn't have any special reaction on her face; her purple eyes were quite calm.
"Are you not worried about Shiki Natsu at all?"
Sakayanagi Arisu frowned slightly and couldn't help but pursue the question.
"This Nagumo-senpai is soone who led Class B to rise to Class A in one year. His strength is quite formidable. And... it seems he also previewed the third-year content. Conversely, Shiki-san hasn't done any advance previewing."
"There is no need to worry because he will definitely win. Otherwise, he wouldn't have agreed to this competition."
Sakayanagi Arisu froze slightly.
Looking at Kamuro Masumi's matter-of-fact appearance, a strong sense of absurdity couldn't help but surge in her heart.
This Kamuro Masumi... isn't her confidence in Shiki Natsu a bit too blind?
What kind of bewitching potion did Shiki Natsu feed Kamuro Masumi to make her trust him to this extent?
This trust that completely bypassed the brain's thinking made Sakayanagi Arisu feel very displeased.
"Hehe... Truly interesting confidence."
The smile in Sakayanagi Arisu's eyes turned a few degrees colder.
"Since you believe in him so much, then what about the matter between us?"
She leaned her body slightly forward, raising her head to stare into Kamuro Masumi's eyes.
"Kamuro-san, how are your preparations going? In the upcoming exam, do you think you can defeat ?"
"Of course I can."
Confident again. Sakayanagi Arisu was even more displeased. One by one, they are all so confident, aren't they?
Sakayanagi Arisu ca over to tell Kamuro Masumi this matter to make Kamuro Masumi panic and then affect the other party's review.
But... she wasn't affected at all. Instead, her own mood beca quite unpleasant.
However... does she really think she is Shiki Natsu?
Thinking she can easily defeat ?
Sakayanagi Arisu was quite clear that when Kamuro Masumi enrolled, her academic ability evaluation was C, far worse than her own.
A trace of coldness flashed through Sakayanagi Arisu's eyes.
Wait until the day Kamuro Masumi fails; then Sakayanagi Arisu will properly let Shiki Natsu see what the price of trusting a pawn too much is.
Thinking of this scene, Sakayanagi Arisu couldn't help but get a little excited.
"Then I will look forward to Kamuro-san defeating ."
After saying these words, Sakayanagi Arisu didn't look at Kamuro Masumi again. She turned around, leaned on her cane, and left with a "clack, clack, clack".
The winner of this battle will only be !
