Twist and Romance!

Romance!

In the vibrant tapestry of high school romance, students walk delicately, their emotions intertwined like a dance, gracefully navigating the edges of heartstrings, where each step holds a promise.

Each glance, whispered secret, and stolen kiss becomes a note in the symphony of young love that echoes through the halls of adolescence.

In this intricate dance, emotions blossom like petals, and the melody of shared moments serves as the soundtrack to their tender journey into the realm of romance.

It was a vibrant morning!

The boy, lying on his bed, had sweat trickling down his back, and his eyes were filled with fear and desperation, as though he had seen a ghost in the early morning. He thus rubbed his eyes twice, finally realizing that the ceiling he was staring at was indeed unfamiliar to him and that the intense sense of impending death was still holding a tight hold on his heart.

His bottled-up emotions began to leak out of his eyes, leaving a trail of tears as the urge to forget the sense of impending death haunted him.

[Help me!!!] The thought crossed his mind. Despite the fact that he was alone and afraid, he was unaware that other girls were hearing his call for assistance and were awakened from a similar nightmare.

It did not take him long for his feelings to start to become more balanced. He got out of bed and headed to the bathroom while experiencing back pain.

Gazing into the mirror, he considered his reflection and eventually realized that his face had changed and that a boy with an innocent appearance was staring back at him from the other side of the mirror.

'Itsuki Hiraku.' Even with its 3D, he reasoned that he could not possibly confuse the face of one of his favorite light novel characters for anything else.

The boy's young face, which appeared to be between 16 and 17 years old, was staring back at the mirror. However, he knew that the boy was actually 18 years old because this was now his new identity.

His appearance and face had a certain allure, and in the game world, Itsuki Charm had a 4-star rating at the beginning of both the light novel and the game.

The boy's appearance was the only problem; while these qualities added to his charm, Itsuki from the other world was aware that characters with well-defined bodies tend to have a higher charm rate.

The boy was standing in front of the mirror, staring at himself a lot, but he did not notice the girl, who appeared to be about his age, standing on the door, smiling slightly, and staring at her older brother as he gave himself such a serious, sarcastic look.

Everyone liked Hiraku Mizuha because of her pleasant personality, striking light brown hair, and crystal blue eyes, which made her stand out among the other girls.

"Hehe, big brother looks really handsome, but onii-chan, I am hungry, so make some food instead of posing in the bathroom like this." Itsuki is startled into remembering that he has a sister and that he is not alone in this world when he hears the enticing voice coming from the side.

'So beautiful.' [So beautiful is my sister.] Itsuki struggled to stop staring at the gorgeous girl, but Mizuha, who heard something echoing in her mind, noticed something strange as she gave her brother a serious look and looked at her brother's stunned expression.

"Do I look beautiful, Onii-chan?" Her eyes glistened as she asked, and she glanced at Itsuki as something else began to ring in her head once more.

[Eh, she is not like this, but she is beautiful.]. [Should I glibber around or talk back openly.]

"Sister is beautiful." After giving an honest response, Itsuki exited the restroom, leaving Mizuha stunned for a brief moment before blushing.

Several other girls felt uncomfortable hearing about their sister and brother's flirtatious thoughts.

While they could clearly hear their inner thoughts, a few of them felt the impulse to call the police and tell them to send the guy down into the locker to flirt.

Itsuki was heading back to the kitchen when he felt a sudden wave of memories that were based on his previous host's actual experiences.

One particularly intriguing thought that came to him was that the guy had received something called a system the night before.

[Life & Romance]

[Life]: [This part of the system use Life force to buy something from the system store.]

[Romance]: [This section turns the attention and romantic feelings he receives from the attractive girls into a life force point.]

However, the previous presenter was undoubtedly a fool, as he foolishly used all of his life force to purchase the status menu from the system out of sheer excitement. As a result, not only did he come dangerously close to death, but the multiverse searched his soul to find a body to inhabit.

Maybe because Mizuhi found something weird about those voices and Itsuki's little changes, she came to check up on him to find him sitting on the side, a little dazed and feeling a little worried, so she hurried beside him and asked.

"Onii-chan, are you alright?" Her voice was filled with concern after all; he was the only person left with her after their family death, and she was only an adopted child.

Still, she remembers how Itsuki argued with many of the family members to let them stay together, and they finally got to live together after he became an adult on his previous birthday.

"I am alright; I was just thinking how beautiful my little sister has become after coming of age this year, which left me stunned for a moment, that is all." Looking at Itsuki teasing smile Mizuha smile sparked with a little mischievous smile. She tugged on his arm and pinched it, with a little pout, for teasing her like this.

[Author-Note:]

[In this world, one can become an adult at the age of 17.] [This is also the reason why the senior year of high school was referred to as the "coming-of-age" year, and many students used it as an opportunity to indulge in sexual desires as a farewell to their time as students.]

Upon reaching the kitchen, Hachiman set out to start the preparation of the breakfast. Not that preparing breakfast was all that difficult for him—after all, he had worked in several restaurants during his previous life and knew who he was.

Not to mention that he had already gotten used to cooking some excellent recipes that he had developed on his own while living alone in a previous life.

Itsuki also got to work on making breakfast, and he had a very well-organized idea for his first meal ever in his new reality.

Notably, Itsuki was thinking of joining an institute that had many part-time jobs that he might be able to continue. In addition to his primary occupation as a writer of light novels, a career path chosen by his former host, Itsuki was confident he could make a good living in this world.

Itsuki was excited to meet the heroine characters from the novel, even though he was not sure if he should take the harem route.

However, he knew that if he did not go with any of them, they might all end up dying as this world's chosen priestess at some point.

'I will think about it later on!' Shaking his head, Itsuki focused on cooking again. But having said that, since Itsuki had a second chance to travel in this world, he was not sure, but he did not want to be another Tom Dick and Harry in this world.

[Would Host like to use Cooking Blessing Stone: Cost 10 Lp]

[Total Lp: 120 points.]

[Buy Option: Accept/Decline.]

[Accept]

Upon hearing Itsuki's voice, he experienced a wave of knowledge forcefully entering his head, including names of spices, recipes for other worlds, and other information. But shortly after, a skill tab appeared in his eyes, and those memories began to fade.

Itsuki initially disregarded the tab and placed the two breakfasts on the dining table. As she watched, the system screen turned off, and a flash of surprise appeared in Itsuki's eyes.

It's the cheat!

"Onii-chan breakfast prepared."

"Fried chicken, along with green salad and garlic ginger bread."

"Thank you, Onii-chan. Can you put the fried chicken and salad between the bread?"

"Haeyo!"

Itsuki was accustomed to his sister's antics and learned to enjoy his younger sister's company after spending so much time alone with his adorable sister; otherwise, his previous host life would have been lonely.

After that, Itsuki returned back to his room, while Mizuha also had something to do and went to her room on the first floor, just like him. "System!" He called out the system and sat on his bed to relax his shoulder a little before looking at the voiceless screen.

[Host Name: Itsuki Hiraku.] [Age: 18 years old.]

[Height: 1.87 m.] [Weight: 73 Kg.]

[Blessings: Cooking lv1. (0/100).]

[Total Lp: 110 points.] [Initial Lp a living person have is equal to 50 points Max.]

Itsuki realizes that the system only really serves two purposes: the first is the assistance voice, which keeps ringing in his head, and the second is the purchase and conversion of Lp and blessings, which only materialize when certain requirements are met.
