In the time loop, I do whatever I want

Eriri wanted to cry but had no tears.

After a night of thinking, she had actually figured out quite a few things.

For example, as long as she strictly follows the schedule, she will definitely reap the rewards.

For example, she is not particularly talented in her studies, so even with a forced study schedule, her progress is not very fast.

So she wondered if it was because she was learning too slowly that the scoundrel's schedule was trying to take up her lunch break.

Just as she was feeling panicked, a commotion suddenly broke out in the corridor.

Immediately afterwards, Makoto Fushimi walked in carrying two bento boxes.

"Fushimi?"

Eriri's voice trembled with excitement.

Has a hero finally come to save me?

"I knew you hadn't eaten yet." Fushimi Makoto placed the bento box in front of Eriri. "I made this bento box especially for you. Fill your stomach first before you study."

Eriri frowned and said in a low voice, "I can't do it."

"Is it because of the schedule?"

"I think so. Maybe my learning progress is too slow... Fushimi, please help me."

By the end, she had long forgotten her proud nature, and the longing and anticipation in her eyes were almost overflowing.

“Leave it to me,” Fushimi Makoto replied with a reassuring smile.

"You really have a way?" Eriri's face flushed with excitement; she was fed up with this forced studying.

"I may not be able to help you with the schedule, but I can help you complete the tasks on time. After we finish these things, we can then study the specifics of your schedule."

"...That's right, that thing is too strange, it doesn't seem like something that would exist in the world at all."

Completely at a loss, Eriri has complete faith in Makoto Fushimi.

Her face was as beautiful as a porcelain doll, and combined with her pitiful appearance at the moment, she really had the look of an adorable homeless kitten.

"How can you help me now?" she asked shyly, blushing. "I'm already hungry."

I'll give you a learning buff.

Fushimi Makoto smiled.

Let Nino's divine power make its appearance!

When he entered a state of focused concentration and meticulously explained the problem to Eriri, Eriri was instantly inspired and devoted herself wholeheartedly to her studies.

In this state, Eriri's learning efficiency greatly improved, and her speed in solving problems also increased significantly.

Coincidentally, her schedule also included study projects.

With the help of these two buffs, her learning efficiency has become comparable to Yukino's.

The students around them were eating their lunchboxes while secretly watching Makoto Fushimi and Eriri, but as Nino's divine power was unleashed, they stopped eating and shouted with great enthusiasm, "I want to study!"

Then they picked up their study notes and started practicing problems with great enthusiasm.

The students passing by in the corridor immediately turned around and ran back to their classrooms to study as soon as they entered Nino's power range.

In an instant, a wave of enthusiasm for learning swept through all the students within Nino's divine power range.

Hiratsuka Shizuka, who happened to be passing by, saw this scene and was immediately stunned, muttering to herself, "When did everyone become so fond of studying? Even those few bad students are holding math problems and writing down formulas. It seems I need to work hard to keep up with the students!"

Yukino, who was outside the range, was also in a daze.

Half a minute ago, Shiyu found her and said, "I have an idea I want to talk to you about. I'm going back to get my notes. Wait for me."

Then Yukino stood there waiting and waiting, but Utaha never came back...

After the first class in the afternoon, gossip about the "midday study frenzy" was already circulating in the school.

"Have you heard? Something strange happened at our school at noon today. I saw my friend go back to the classroom to get a comic book, saying he was going to recommend a new one to me. But instead of coming back, he was actually writing formulas in the classroom. I suspect he's secretly competing with me!"

"What's that? My friend was supposed to go to the bathroom, but for some reason, he went back to the classroom to do practice problems. When I found him, his face was purple from holding in his pee!"

"Hiss! Does holding in your pee make it easier to study? Wait a minute, aren't people online saying that you can't move an inch when you hold your pee?"

"You only heard half of it. The real saying is: 'Holding your pee makes it hard to move an inch, but holding your pee makes studying a breeze.' And you know what? My friend, who usually can't solve math problems, managed to solve them all by holding his pee, and he wrote out those long strings of formulas with incredible smoothness!"

"This guy is a talent."

The mastermind behind all this, Makoto Fushimi, is currently calmly chatting with his friends in the classroom.

He had, of course, heard these gossips and rumors.

However, he didn't pay any attention to it.

According to Eriri's own schedule, this "nationwide learning frenzy" will continue for another week.

Chapter 309 Still Needs Practice

In the following days, rumors about the "unbelievable study frenzy" spread throughout the school, and more and more people witnessed this scene firsthand.

Among the people Makoto Fushimi knew, besides Eriri who received his daily tutoring, many of his acquaintances were also affected by Nino's divine power.

Utaha, Yukino, the five Nakano sisters...

Everyone who is within Nino's power range will find themselves irresistibly drawn into studying.

Although everyone was baffled afterward and didn't know what had happened, all the students who had been affected by Nino's divine power were looking forward to the next time it would happen.

Because everyone realized that their learning efficiency in that state was extremely high, to a degree that was beyond their expectations.

Even students with poor grades, once influenced by Nino's divine power, will find the most suitable learning method for themselves in the shortest amount of time.

This sudden surge in learning enthusiasm was not only talked about by the students, but also by the school's leaders and teachers.

It's worth mentioning that, under Makoto Fushimi's full guidance these past few days, Eriri not only felt she had gained a lot, but she also felt that their relationship had grown much closer.

Although Eriri wouldn't admit it, she would occasionally blush and think: Has my friendship with Fushimi changed?

Just as Fushimi Makoto realized Eriri's thoughts, the system's emotionless notification sounded.

[Congratulations, host, you have triggered a new mission.]

[Mission Reward (Eri's Art Badge): As Eriri's most trusted elder, please be completely honest with her (both physically and psychologically) and make her stop being hypocritical, at least not in front of you.]

[The target of this mission has been detected to be extremely arrogant; the difficulty is being reduced for the host.]

[Host, please rest assured, the system has opened a backdoor for you. You only need to tear off the target's arrogant facade once, letting her reveal her obsessive and fanatical side in front of acquaintances.]

On Thursday afternoon, Makoto Fushimi had just returned from tutoring Eriri when he heard the mechanical voice of the system opening a backdoor for him.

"System, you've broadened your path! If this continues, you'll succeed in your internship sooner or later. Thanks," Fushimi said sincerely.

No need for thanks, we're partners.

"You should say, everyone's a bunch of pigeons."

When he had some free time, Fushimi Makoto twirled a pen in his left hand while thinking about Eriri.

If a new quest has been triggered, it means that Eriri is now a romanceable character.

However, Eriri's personality, which always likes to charge in the opposite direction, undoubtedly has a comedic element.

And according to the system's description, I also need to be honest with them... in a physical sense.

Fushimi Makoto suddenly stopped writing with his pen.

"That's easy. Winning over Eriri is much easier than winning over her 'older sister'."

In the past few days, in addition to helping Eriri improve, Makoto Fushimi has also specifically tested the effects of the "Effort Aura".

The things he made were basically inspired by Doraemon.

After all, who wouldn't want to have an obedient and honest blue robot cat?

However, despite the "Hallucination Aura" being incredibly powerful, it still didn't reach the level of the Wind Spirit Moon Shadow Sect.

For example, there's a small toy phone booth he's hiding in his drawer right now.

He had pieced it together by hand with cardboard last night, and even painted it.

He made this based on the "If Phone Booth".

It's much smaller in size, of course; to outsiders, it's just a small toy.

Unfortunately, even with all the attention to detail, the prop's effect was far less impressive than that of a phone booth.

[Crude Phone Booth: You can use this tool to call anyone. The recipient cannot track your caller ID or location, and there are no charges during the call. Once you decide to call your target, the call will be answered instantly, regardless of their location.]

[Note: This item can only be used three times. It will be automatically destroyed after all uses are consumed.]

"Although it's not very useful, in gaming terms, it should be considered a strong crowd control skill."

Fushimi Makoto decided to keep it for now, thinking it might come in handy later.

After school, he planned to go straight to the activity room, but on the way, he was stopped by Hiratsuka Shizuka, who said that the principal wanted to see him.

"What does the headmaster want with me?" Fushimi Makoto asked casually.

"I'm not entirely sure either, but I suspect it might be related to the national mock exam next week." Hiratsuka Shizuka said, blushing slightly.

There was no way around it; that night was just too exciting.

Although she didn't mind practicing her speaking skills, she blushed and continued her "work" while Fushimi Makoto and Eriri were on the phone.

Every time she thinks back on it afterward, she believes that she must have drunk too much that night, otherwise how could she have done something so daring?

However daring she was, she did find it very exciting, and she remained in a state of high excitement throughout the night.

Makoto Fushimi followed Shizuka Hiratsuka to the principal's office, where he found that not only the principal was there, but also several teachers he recognized, including Mayu Matsukaze.

"Fushimi, you're here? Come and play a game with me." The principal chuckled, pointing to the shogi board on the table.

"Did you specifically invite me to play chess?" Fushimi Makoto was somewhat speechless as he walked over and sat down.

"Of course not, but we can chat while we play."

The principal had a bright smile. He had a very good impression of Makoto Fushimi. The short film he made had greatly increased the school's reputation, and even in terms of academics, the school consistently ranked first in the grade.

This is my ideal student role model!

As the game began, Hiratsuka Shizuka and the others watched from the sidelines, openly eavesdropping on the two's conversation.

"Fushimi, the national mock exams are next week. If I'm not mistaken, you should have finished your high school courses by now, right?"

"I see, you want me to participate too?"

"That's right, not just you, but also Kasumigaoka, Yukinoshita, and Hayama. I'm going to give you all a set of test papers."

"If they agree, I have no objection."

It's just doing practice problems, Fushimi Makoto doesn't resist it, since it won't take much time anyway.

The principal said with a big smile, "I knew a student with such excellent grades would agree. It was definitely the right decision to bring you here."

Fushimi Makoto understood the unspoken meaning in his words: "So, you have something else to discuss with me?"

"Well, I'll take this opportunity to tell everyone about it tomorrow, and I hope you can give a speech as the top student in your grade."

“A speech? Me?” Fushimi Makoto was stunned.

This was truly beyond his expectations.

"You don't like public speaking?" The principal seemed even more surprised than him.

"Wait, do you think I enjoy doing this kind of thing?"

"Yes, I heard from your friends that you always gave a speech when you were filming your first short film, and everyone was excited by your speech and burst out with unprecedented enthusiasm."

Makoto Fushimi: "..."

So that's what it was all about?

He wasn't surprised that the principal knew about this. When he encouraged everyone with his speech, he didn't try to hide it at all, so it wasn't surprising that the news got out.

Seeing Fushimi Makoto's silence, the principal assumed he was hesitating and immediately said, "If you are willing to go on stage, I can continue to increase your club's funding. You can even make a request to me, as long as it's not excessive, I can agree to it."

Hearing this, the teachers, including Hiratsuka Shizuka, were quite surprised.

They already knew that the principal valued Fushimi Makoto highly, but the extent to which he had gone this far still surprised them.

Matsukaze Mayu looked at Fushimi Makoto with a smile on her face; she was happy for him.
