As a villain, he could do whatever he wanted.

"This is for my elder brother, as an apology..."

"Um, these are your stockings, Leah. You just took them off and gave them to me like that?"

"Because my elder brother... likes this, right? I noticed the way he looked at me before, he seemed quite interested in my feet and legs, so I'm using this to apologize to him. I hope he can forgive my previous rudeness..."

After displaying a somewhat hesitant and awkward demeanor, Lia pointed out Lius's true thoughts. At the same time, she heard a "divine voice" that sounded like a young girl.

[Ding! Congratulations, host, for completing the mission and receiving the mission rewards: Magic Level 10, Wind God Technique Level 1]

[Many more similar missions await you in the future. Please continue to work hard and become stronger.]

"Sigh... there will be more to come..."

Feeling the words of "God", Lia pursed her lips and felt dizzy for a moment. Then she noticed that Lius's gaze was still on her, and she became flustered and nervous again.

"Brother...elder brother, are you still angry...? Or do you want me to apologize in some other way...?"

"Lia, can you step on me like this more often in the future?"

"……Eh?"

Hearing Leus's unexpected words, Leah blinked in surprise, while Leus looked at the white-haired girl in front of him with a slightly serious expression...

Chapter Seven: My Beloved Sister's Heart Fluttering

"So, Leah, if you have time later, could you step on me again?"

"Eh?"

Upon hearing Lius's words, Lia blinked blankly, momentarily imagining herself stepping on Lius's face, and a surge of joy welled up inside her.

After a few brief seconds, she quickly shook her head, suppressing her excitement again, and said somewhat nervously:

"Brother, you want me to step on this... Why? Does it mean you have this kind of hobby...?"

"Yes, oh yes, the host does have that kind of hobby. You're a foot fetishist who likes girls' feet~"

Before Leus could actually speak, the system on his shoulder chuckled and answered.

Lius, however, ignored her words and tried to maintain a serious expression as he explained to Lia in front of him:

"Well, there might be some interest involved... but that's not the main reason. I actually wanted to use this method to get closer to you, Leah."

"Does getting closer to me mean I have to step on my brother with my feet...?" Lia muttered, blushing.

"Well, I know it sounds weird, but thinking back to the excited look on your face when you stepped on me earlier, Lia... maybe you like doing this kind of thing too."

Looking at the settings for Lia's [feet] on the system interface, Leus unreservedly revealed the excitement in Lia's heart.

Upon hearing this, a look of surprise flashed across Lia's face, and she stood there stunned in disbelief.

"I really enjoy doing this kind of thing..."

"Yeah, didn't you feel excited when you stepped on me before, Leah?"

"No... well... I wasn't excited when I was stepping on my older brother..."

"Really not? The expression on your face earlier, Lia, completely revealed your inner thoughts. You seemed to enjoy it when you were stepping on me, right? That's why you kept your foot on my face, feeling the excitement of being trampled, until you finally put your foot down when you were leaving. Am I right about these things?"

"This……"

Faced with Lius's statement, Lia was speechless for a moment, and the blush on her face deepened with time.

Warm sweat trickled down Lia's forehead, and upon closer inspection, wisps of steam rose from her cheeks, transforming the girl into a "steam princess" immersed in shame, as if she were about to bury her head in her arms to escape the reality before her.

"Hmm...not bad. As expected, Leah is very innocent. She gets so shy after just a few teasing remarks. How adorable..."

Seeing Lia's shy and coy appearance, Leus smiled with satisfaction, and couldn't help but recall more about Lia in the game.

From childhood to adulthood, Leah spent most of her time in an orphanage and had little contact with the outside world.

Anne's mother also taught her children with a holy and dignified demeanor, which made Leah's heart basically a blank sheet of paper, untouched by any evil thoughts, pure and flawless.

But behind this purity lies the self-desire that Leah unconsciously suppresses.

From a young age, Leah had always focused her attention on others.

Whether it was the director or her fellow orphans, she always treated them with a sensible and well-behaved attitude, prioritizing helping others and rarely considering what she truly wanted in her heart.

And so, without realizing it, Leah suppressed the desires that arose within her.

This includes the stirrings of romantic feelings between men and women during adolescence, as well as the waves of passion and desire that arise within the body as one grows up and matures.

There were no men in the orphanage, and Leah's knowledge of relationships between men and women was limited to what she learned from textbooks.

Every time she looked at the intertwined man and woman on the pages of the book, the girl's heart would beat faster.

As time passed, she would often hum softly in the dead of night, waking from her dreams, her heart pounding with desire, her legs pressed tightly together, leaving a mark of puberty on her underwear between them.

All of this made Leah feel scared and uneasy, causing her to consciously distance herself from and reject this kind of thing, trying her best to hide her secrets and prevent this shameful matter from being exposed.

At this moment, her secret was discovered by Leus and by the very person she needed to guard against.

For Leah, this was undoubtedly a huge blow.

"Waaah... I'm so sorry... I shouldn't have thought that way... Waaah... Lia is a hopeless pervert... a bad girl..."

"Hey, don't cry. If others see you, they'll think I'm bullying you. It's okay, it's not a big deal."

Seeing that Leah had suddenly started crying, Leus quickly went to her side, reached out and gently stroked the girl's head, and kept comforting her:

"Lia, be good. You just like stepping on me, right? It's just a normal hobby. Many people have this hobby. It's normal and not weird."

"Ugh... Leah is such a pervert... Even though Annie's mother told us to keep our composure, she just did something like that..."

Lia was still immersed in self-loathing and didn't listen to much of what Lius was saying.

In response, Leus rolled his eyes, and suddenly had another idea:

"Well, speaking of Aunt Annie, actually... she also likes to do things like that to me, and she also likes to step on me with her feet."

"Huh? What?"

As expected, upon hearing this, Lia immediately looked up at Lius with a shocked expression.

"Did Anne's mother...do something similar to my brother?"

"Yes, this is a secret between Ms. Anne and me. I'm only telling you this today to comfort you, Leah."

After spouting nonsense with a straight face, Leus put on a serious expression and nodded slightly to Lia.

"So, now that you know about this, can you calm down a little, Leah?"

"..."

Leah pursed her lips, remained silent for a few seconds, then the shock and shame on her face disappeared. She took a deep breath, bit her lip, and nodded.

"Hmm... I've calmed down, elder brother..."

"That's good, then I'll continue."

Clearing his throat, Leus looked at Leah again, tapped her forehead with his hand, and spoke in a serious yet concerned tone:

"Honestly, Leah, you really are an idiot."

"Huh? Idiot... idiot?" Lia blinked in confusion.

"Yeah, forcibly suppressing your own desires just to maintain a proper appearance, making yourself miserable day and night, what is that if not stupid?"

"This...this is because I don't want...I don't want others to worry, so..."

"Don't want others to worry? Hmph, do you think you're the only one who knows these things? Let me tell you, Aunt Annie knows too! She's very worried about you, Leah, knowing that you're tormented by your inner desires every night, so she specifically asked me to find a way to persuade you to stop deliberately suppressing your desires."

"Does Anne's mother...know about these things?"

"Of course! Having been by your side all this time, how could I not know my own daughter well?"

Lius nodded confidently, but the harsh reality was that Anne didn't really know much about Leah.

It could even be said that, apart from Lia herself, Lius is the person who understands Lia the most.

But at this point, the truth doesn't matter much anymore. As long as this white-haired girl who has been suppressing her desires can reveal her true feelings, anything is worthwhile.

"Now that you know these things, Leah, you should make a decision: will you continue to suppress your feelings, or will you release your desires in moderation to alleviate that suppressed emotion?"

As he said this, Leus straightened his expression and knelt down in front of the girl again. Under Lia's surprised gaze, he gently lifted her right bare foot, caressed the soft and rosy flesh, and leaned his face forward to gently kiss the white instep of Lia's foot.

"Brother..."

Feeling the kisses on the back of her foot, Leah swallowed hard, a surge of excitement rising up her right foot and taking over the girl's mind.

This time, however, Leah did not resist. Instead, she faced the thought that arose from the depths of her heart, letting the feeling linger throughout her body and immersing herself in the excitement that filled her mind.

"To release desires in moderation... Didn't Anne's mother do that too? That's why she did those things to her brother..."

With these thoughts in mind, Lia took a deep breath and looked at Leus again. For a moment, she seemed to see a handsome prince kneeling down to propose to her, which made the girl swallow hard. Then, as if she had made up her mind, she slowly raised her left foot and placed it on Leus's cheek.

"If that's how it is, then I'll have to trouble you a lot from now on... to help relieve Lia's stress..."

"Ha, no problem, I'd love to!"

Feeling the soft texture on his cheek, Lius smiled and nodded, pleased with the girl's honesty, and continued to knead the smooth bare feet in his hands.

Lia, however, seemed to be more than just stomping on him. After pressing with her soles for a while, she gently moved her left toes to Lius's lips and looked at him with a yearning gaze.

"My right foot has already been licked by my brother, and now I'd like to do the same to my left foot. I wonder if my brother would be willing... Ah!"

Before Lia could finish speaking, Lius directly took the girl's delicate toes into his mouth and began to savor this delicious "snack," causing the girl to gasp in surprise and then blush as she slightly looked away.

"Really...so eager. So my brother has some kind of hobby, huh? I guess I'll have to be careful around him from now on..."

Leah muttered to herself, but her gaze toward Lius softened considerably compared to the beginning, and the hostility in her heart gradually lessened, replaced by a youthful stirring.

Amidst this inner turmoil, the girl stomped her feet back and forth on Leus's face, like a little queen, enjoying this slight desire, and an intimate smile unconsciously appeared on her lips as she looked at Leus...

Chapter Eight: A New Pair of Visitors

After some time, they entered the town area, and the carriage came to a stop on the street.

"Young Master Lius, we have arrived."

"Okay, thank you for your hard work. Let's go, Leah, it's time to get off the bus."

After greeting the maid who was acting as the coachman, Lius was the first to jump down from the carriage. He then turned around and, in a gentlemanly manner, reached out to Lia in the carriage, gently took the girl's fingers, and helped her slowly walk out of the carriage.

"Lia, slow down, don't fall."

"Okay, thank you, elder brother."

Responding obediently to Lius, Lia stepped down from the carriage with the lightness and agility of a hummingbird. Her legs, clad in white stockings, landed firmly on the ground, and she looked around the bustling street with a curious gaze.

"Wow, this is so luxurious... Is this where my brother lives? This is my first time here."

"Oh? Leah, you haven't been here before?"

"Well, usually when Annie's mother goes out to run errands, we stay at the orphanage. This is my first time coming to a place so far away from the orphanage, so I'm a little nervous."

Lia pursed her lips and smiled shyly.

"In that case, I'll have to take even better care of you, Lia. Come on, it's almost noon. Let's go eat first, and then I'll buy you some new clothes. Now that you're my little sister, you should dress up nicely. Come on, come on, this way."

With that, Leus took Lia's little hand and took on the role of tour guide, chatting and laughing as they walked forward together, leaving the two maids standing there, watching the two seemingly harmonious young man and woman with a look of satisfaction.

"Ah...how cute, young master Lius and Miss Lia have such a good relationship."

"Yes, I was worried that Miss Lia might not be able to adapt, but it seems I was overthinking it. As expected of the young master, he has already established a good relationship with Miss Lia so quickly, even though it was their first meeting. Miss Lia seems very happy too. That's wonderful."

"However... I feel like Miss Leah's movements are a bit strange. She walks unsteadily, as if she has twisted her ankle. Could it be that something got into her shoe?"

With a look of relief mixed with a hint of doubt, the maid turned her gaze toward Leah's retreating figure.

If you get closer to Leah's feet, you can see the dampness hidden in the girl's shoes, spreading across her white silk stockings.

"Phew, elder brother, my feet are still covered in your saliva..."

With Lius gently holding her hand, Leah licked her lips, feeling the moisture spreading across her feet. Although her tone was somewhat complaining, a satisfied smile gradually appeared on her delicate lips.

It must be said that after that humiliating experience, the relationship between the two has indeed grown much closer.

Without the invisible barrier from the beginning, Leah now expresses her inner emotions more freely, showing her youthful side to Lius in a pure yet slightly mischievous way, making her very likable.
