27 The Little Brother SS

Yo, I'm Toku Mizuki, and apparently, I'm supposed to be a genius.

That's what people keep calling me anyway, but they seem to be looking at the wrong sibling.

I'm not the genius of this family, it's my older sister.

How's she a genius? Well let me explain my family first.

My dad is a computer expert and the sole creator of Sapphire, the world's first VRMMO. That's already pretty amazing for a family member right?

Except everyone in my family is like that, even my dead mom.

Ah, don't worry about it though, I don't get really emotional after thinking about her. I was only five when she died after all, don't remember her well anyway.

But she was amazing, her looks, her brains, and her sociability. Even more badass, apparently the president of the United States once secretly fell in love with her on sight by coincidence.

He was instantly rejected, of course, the public doesn't know these things.

My mom is so damn cool.

Then there's my older bro, Kai.

Now…...he's a weird one, that's for sure. His density levels pierce the heavens, yet, maybe he managed to reach God that way because man, his looks are flawless.

I mean really? God, if you exist, did you really need to spend so much time on my brother?

I don't even want to mention the number of people that confess to him every day, I've even seen it happen in the guy's bathroom, twice.

The first time was a guy.

But the second time was a girl that had stormed into the bathroom just to get his attention.

It gave me the chills. Her expression was creepy, I swear I saw her drooling while confessing to Kai.

Last of all, there's my older sister Yuri.

I don't really know how to explain her but…...all I can say is that she shouldn't exist in this mortal world.

And I'm not a siscon okay? I'm being an honest little bro here, I can't understand her.

I'm praised to be a genius, and I can't understand her!

It's not that she's odd, or has superpowers. Or maybe she does, I dunno.

But I know for a fact that she is the true genius.

For example, a genius is a person who is exceptionally intelligent or creative, either generally or in some particular respect. That's what the dictionary says at least, I've already memorized it.

I've memorized the entire dictionary I mean.

That's not me.

I'm not a 'genius'.

I just didn't want to get left behind, my family is too amazing. I spend every second of my life training my brain, memorizing statistics, reading books and contemplating war strategies.

This is just the result of my fifteen years of hard work, not by suddenly being enlightened or already understanding everything without even being taught.

Yuri is different from the rest. Although she doesn't know anything at first and is actually sometimes a scatterbrain, her genius lies in her talent for learning.

Yeah, I don't get it either.

When I teach her self-defense, she can pick up new moves instantly and master them after only a few hours of practice.

See? Pure genius, don't know how else to explain it. I asked Kai how she was doing with archery and he said the exact same thing. The first time she held a bow, she managed to copy Kai's form perfectly.

That's my older sister for you, doesn't disappoint at all.

I should work harder to catch up.

And although she says that the people on the leaderboards in Sapphire are crazy…...I think she's the crazy one. I bet she's defying everyone's expectations and is doing something crazy in that game.

Heck, I'll bet my life on it. My sister is crazy.

Ah, but she's really good looking as well, almost as much as Kai.

Heh, not that she realizes it in the first place, she's like Kai with that as well.

I feel like I'm the only normal person in this family right now...

But I do still love them a lot.

Well, what can I say, I'm not the type of person who acts mushy all the time.
