Zongman, Rebirth of the Heaven-Defying Kirito

Over the weekend, while Kirito was away from home, Naoyabe began her operation.

She pressed herself against the door of her brother's room, holding her breath and listening for any sounds coming from the living room. If Kirito suddenly returned, Suguha would retreat as quickly as possible.

After entering the room, I started looking for a suitable spot.

Kirito's room was very tidy, and the first thing that caught the eye was a simple bed.

To the left is a bookshelf filled with professional books on electronics and software, which Zhiye certainly couldn't understand. On the right, the computer desktop and the Unicom Stealth Helmet sat quietly beside the bed.

The room was so simple that Suguha didn't know where to hide the things for a moment.

The so-called 'things' were naturally the books sent by Umaru, personally selected by Sagiri.

Suguha even wrote "To my brother - by Suguha" on the sealed cover, otherwise Kirito might have thrown it away as trash.

Next, she put the items into the bookshelf. Although they were somewhat different, they were still books, so they blended in naturally.

But Suguha seemed quite dissatisfied with the place: "With so many books here, what if Onii-chan doesn't notice them at all?"

So she went to the computer desk, which had nothing on it except the equipment.

"It's too easy to spot here..."

After rejecting both locations, Suguha finally turned her attention to the bed.

Why not just hide under your brother's pillow like Umaru did?

Once this idea came to mind, Suguha felt it was even more appropriate.

It wouldn't be easily noticed at first glance, and since people often slept there, it was only a matter of time before it was discovered.

"Well, it's decided."

Suguha bit her lower lip and stuffed the things under the pillow. Afraid that Kirito would notice the abnormality in the room at a glance, she tidied up the pillow.

Just then, she keenly heard the "click" of the living room door opening; it must be her brother coming home!

The sound was soft, but it was like a thunderclap in my ear.

Suguha, as if she were 'stealing but suddenly bumped into her owner coming home,' frantically grabbed the doorknob and practically fled the room.

Kirito, who had just returned from outside, bumped into Suguha in the living room.

"Xiao Zhi, what are you doing in such a panic?"

"Wha...nothing!"

Suguha pretended to be nonchalant, and Kirito didn't press her for details; it's normal for girls to have their own little secrets.

As the afternoon approached, Kirito, having nothing to do, decided to log into SAO to kill time.

Lying in bed, I repeated the "Link Start" action countless times.

Then some time passed.

Kirito felt some discomfort in his neck as soon as he logged off.

"Huh? What's going on?"

It wasn't a stiff neck or neck pain, but rather a feeling of unease from suddenly changing a posture that had been maintained for a long time.

Is it a problem with the bed?

At first glance, the sheets and blankets looked the same as always, until he turned over the pillow and an item with the inscription "Gift to my brother - by Zhiye" came into view.

It must have been placed here recently, otherwise I would have noticed it long ago.

"And it's a small, direct delivery item, so why not deliver it directly to me?"

With this question in mind, he broke the seal.

Kirito was dumbfounded when he saw the contents inside.

As time passed, at the dinner table in the evening.

Kirito's performance was as good as ever, which gave Suguha a slight sense of unease.

It's probably because the thing I put there hasn't been discovered yet. Let's wait and see.

Next came breakfast for the second day.

Suguha stared at her brother's expressionless face, feeling increasingly puzzled: "It's been almost half a day, hasn't Onii-chan noticed anything at all? That shouldn't be..."

Kirito noticed his sister's gaze: "What's wrong?"

"No...nothing!"

The same thing happened at noon; it was as if her older brother had never noticed anything and never mentioned anything extra in the room.

This is really strange!

I wasn't hiding myself particularly well, so how come I wasn't discovered?

So that night she simply laid it all out: "O-Onii-chan, did you see anything extra in the room?"

Kirito paused, then asked, "You mean those books hidden under the pillow?"

"Yes, that's it!" Realizing she had gotten a little excited, Suguha calmed herself down. "Can I ask how you feel?"

Kirito frowned. "Is this something I can ask?"

But since she was his own sister, he carefully chose his words and slowly began, "To be honest, this is my first time encountering this kind of art..."

"Hmm, and then? And then?" Suguha asked excitedly.

Kirito looked worried: "Do we really have to continue?"

"Keep talking!"

Having come this far, how could Suguha choose to back down?

"Alright." Kirito sighed, "I don't think this is something we should be getting involved in at our age, but it's a token of Nao's affection after all, and I'll cherish it."

Suguha looked somewhat disappointed upon hearing this.

Although the older brother was happy that he could cherish the gift he received, he seemed quite resistant to it.

It's indeed difficult for the relationship between siblings to progress further...

Just then, Suguha suddenly realized that Sagiri had said her brother's change was due to being influenced by what he saw and heard, and perhaps her brother's change was simply due to a lack of experience.

Yes, very likely.

So Suguha immediately said, "Onii-chan, I know it's a bit difficult, but could you please look at the things I gave you every day?"

"Every day?" Kirito exclaimed in astonishment.

"If you get tired of those, I'll send you some other things."

"There are others?!"

This wasn't just astonishment; Kirito was truly frightened.

Are you trying to kill yourself by looking at those things every day?

And when did my younger sister become such a pro?

Hearing this, Kirito's expression turned serious: "I still stand by what I said, 'These things may not be suitable for us.' Let's stop, Nao. I'm afraid you won't be able to handle it."

"So it really didn't work..." Suguha was a little discouraged.

Seeing this, Kirito sighed. What could he do as the older brother in this situation? Of course, he agreed.

"Wait a moment."

After saying that, he turned around and went upstairs back to his room. When Kirito returned to the living room, he had three books in his hand.

I didn't pay much attention to the blurry, colorful cover when I saw it from afar.

It wasn't until Kirito took three books to the living room and openly started reading them in front of Suguha that the situation changed.

"The Service of My Giant-Size Sister", "Onii-chan's Personal Angel", "Brother Can Do Whatever He Wants"

Moreover, as Kirito flipped through the pages, more 'in-depth' content came into Suguha's view.

"How...how could you look at something like this in public?"

She covered her eyes with one hand and pointed at Kirito with the other, questioning him. Judging from the fact that Kirito's face was red to the ears, she was clearly very agitated.

"Didn't Nao tell me to watch this every day?" Kirito asked, looking even more puzzled.

It was a gift from my own sister, but I had such a big reaction when I saw it with my own eyes.

Suguha was somewhat incredulous. "You mean... these are the things I sent?"

"Yes." Kirito nodded.

Suguha suddenly realized, and her face turned even redder, she was so embarrassed she felt like she was about to bleed.

So, Sagiri didn't give herself a story about healthy siblings?

How did it go so far in terms of "depth"?

And I just asked my older brother to watch it every day.

Oh no! Now I'm going to be treated like SeSe's little sister forever...
