Chapter 41 : Can You Even Use Esper Powers Like This?

It wasn’t the soft, grassy texture he’d imagined—instead, his hand was met with unexpected warmth, slickness, and a shocking degree of wetness.

Arisugawa Yuu’s brain froze. It took him several long seconds to regain his senses. “Kanon, what are you doing?”

He tried to pull his hand back, but she clamped down on it firmly, refusing to let go.

Kanzuki Kanon didn’t answer. Instead, she smiled sweetly and asked, “Brother, do you like it?”

“Kanon, stop fooling around.”

He pulled harder this time and finally managed to free his hand.

Without looking, he already knew how filthy it was.

A flicker of disappointment crossed Kanzuki Kanon’s beautiful face.

She stared into Arisugawa Yuu’s eyes with her aqua-blue gaze and repeated, “Brother, do you like it?”

“No.”

Arisugawa Yuu denied it without hesitation.

As for whether he actually liked it—any normal teenage boy would have the same instinctive answer.

But could he admit that?

If he did, everything would spiral out of control.

Hearing his response, Kanzuki Kanon simply laughed. “Brother, has anyone ever told you what gives you away when you lie?”

Arisugawa Yuu: “……”

Seeing him speechless, Kanzuki Kanon’s smile grew even more smug.

Even Arisugawa Yuu couldn’t withstand being mocked like this by his own sister.

Unbearable, he tried to change the subject: “Kanon, I’ll go get the first-aid kit. Let me disinfect your wound and apply some medicine. If it scars, it’ll be a problem.”

“It’s just a small cut. Don’t think you can use that as an excuse to run away.”

Seeing through his intention, Kanzuki Kanon grabbed his hand.

Arisugawa Yuu insisted, “Even small wounds can scar if not treated properly.”

“Hmph.” She wrinkled her nose in annoyance, then leaned in with a mysterious grin. “Brother, don’t go. Let Kanon show you a magic trick?”

Arisugawa Yuu instinctively asked, “What trick?”

“Watch closely.” Kanzuki Kanon tilted her head high, fully exposing her snowy neck and delicate collarbone—radiating the sweet, youthful charm of a girl in her prime.

But none of that mattered.

What mattered was that, under Arisugawa Yuu’s stunned gaze, the wound on her neck began to vanish—faster than the eye could follow. In seconds, not only was the cut gone, but even the faintest trace of a scar had disappeared.

“Kanon, your esper ability can heal your own injuries too? Not just control others’ bodies?”

Arisugawa Yuu was shocked.

Was his sister this powerful?

“Are you an idiot, brother?” Kanzuki Kanon scolded without mercy, her delicate face brimming with pride. “My powers are far stronger than you could ever imagine.”

“How strong?”

“If brother and I do it once, I’ll tell you.”

She gave a sly smile and set her terms.

“No way. Don’t even think about it. If you don’t want to say, then forget it.”

Arisugawa Yuu waved her off.

Come on—once would lead to twice, then three times. If he gave in now, it wouldn’t stop at one or two.

Noticing the glistening moisture on his fingers, Kanzuki Kanon purred in a sultry tone: “Are you sure you don’t want to do it with me? You already know how soft and smooth it is, don’t you?”

She paused deliberately, as if to heighten the tension, then leaned in and whispered sweetly: “Let me tell you a secret… I’m natural. Not shaved.”

Arisugawa Yuu recalled the sensation—and instantly, his mind conjured up an inappropriate image.

No, no, no!

He quickly recited the Clear Mind Incantation to steady himself, then irritably tapped Kanon’s forehead: “Brat, who taught you to talk to your brother like this?”

Kanzuki Kanon pouted: “You really think I see you as my brother? I only call you that for fun.”

“If you don’t see me as your brother, then stop calling me that.”

Arisugawa Yuu sighed in exasperation.

“Okay!” She nodded cutely, then placed a finger on her chin, pretending to think. “Let me see… if I don’t call you brother, what should I call you?… Darling?… Master?…”

“Stop, stop, stop, stop, stop!” Seeing her spiral into absurdity, Arisugawa Yuu frantically pressed a finger to her cherry lips to silence her. “Just call me brother. Whatever makes you happy.”

However—

“Mmm~ So brother wants me to do this? How perverted.”

Kanzuki Kanon mumbled around his finger.

“……”

Feeling the slick warmth of her mouth, Arisugawa Yuu looked at her delicate face.

Her porcelain-white cheeks were now flushed with a feverish red, strands of her silver-white hair clinging to her damp skin. Her once-clear aqua-blue eyes were now hazy, radiating a pink, dreamy aura that felt like it could pull him into another world.

The wetter his finger became, the thicker the mist in her eyes grew.

Arisugawa Yuu silently recited the Clear Mind Incantation again, suppressing the rising tide of desire—then yanked his finger free.

“Mmmph~”

Kanzuki Kanon nearly bit her tongue, glaring at him in annoyance.

“Kanon, can you stop acting like this all the time? If you keep this up, I’m really going to get mad.”

Arisugawa Yuu ignored her glare, sternly warning her.

For the sake of his heart, such warnings were absolutely necessary. Getting stimulated like this constantly—how could anyone survive?

Hearing this, Kanzuki Kanon’s clear eyes flicked downward, then she smiled sweetly: “My dear brother, you’re very ‘angry,’ aren’t you?”

“……” Arisugawa Yuu’s face flushed red. He awkwardly hunched his shoulders but kept his stern expression. “Kanon, I’m serious.”

“Oh? How serious?” She leaned in again, her warm breath brushing his ear. “Come closer, brother. Tell Kanon how serious you are, okay?”

His nose filled with her sweet scent, his shoulder pressed against her soft, bouncy chest. Arisugawa Yuu’s breathing quickened. The Clear Mind Incantation seemed to be losing its effect.

In the end, he relied on sheer willpower to push her back slightly, his voice strained: “Kanon, please stop. I’m really getting angry.”

She leaned in once more, her hot, damp breath washing over his face: “I already said—if you come close and tell me how serious you are, I’ll agree.”

Her radiant face was inches from his. Her clear eyes, delicate nose, and moist lips were all vividly clear. Arisugawa Yuu found himself unable to speak.

A sudden intuition struck him—if he opened his mouth, she’d instantly seal it with hers.

His Adam’s apple bobbed as he swallowed hard, trying to pull his head back.

Kanzuki Kanon let him retreat, not stopping him. Instead, she giggled: “Dear brother, let me tell you a secret. Kanon’s esper ability isn’t just for healing wounds. If I want… I can even repair things like… membranes. You like pure, innocent girls, right? With me, you can experience it every single day.”

“???”

Esper powers can do that?!

Arisugawa Yuu’s eyes widened.

Somehow, he felt like the world’s operating system had a critical bug.
