The morning sun seemed to shine just for Tadano Taro as he strutted down the sidewalk, a newfound spring in his step.
The world for him now felt different today—sharper, clearer, as if his foggy mind suddenly cleared up, allowing to see clearly again.

And that reward hadn't been a placebo effect, as facts proved that he had really gotten smarter, as the things that usually slipped through his mind like sand were now sticking.
He could recall the words in the textbook quite easily now.
'If I keep this up,'he thought, a smug grin spreading across his face, 'won't I eventually have a photographic memory? I'll be a genius without even trying.'
He chuckled, and flexed his arm beneath his uniform, feeling his muscles.
