Chapter 4

"Alrighty then~"

When everything's said and done, 'Gura' gestured her hand and was presumably about to send them away… at least that was what Shotaro had in mind.

He held her elder sister's hand tightly as if afraid that she would vanish once they get transmigrated and when he was about to close his eyes, he suddenly thought of something.

Shotaro felt that his chuuni tendencies had awoken and acted up.

"W-wait!..." Shotaro exclaimed which got her elder sister's brow to arch.

Ayame turned towards him and couldn't help but be curious and asked, "What is it Shota-chan?"

"…"

Shotaro just flashed a smile on his lips at his sister's questions but didn't answer her. Instead, he turned towards 'Gura' who didn't say anything but with a questioning look.

"I… I w-would like to make a request to change me and my sister's appearances if possible…" Shotaro proceeded hesitantly.

Inwardly though, he wasn't expecting that much and was ready to have his request rejected or perhaps an earful outburst from 'Gura'.

He was just taking his chances. However, a short while later, he didn't get what he had expected in his thoughts but got the silent treatment from her instead.

His elder sister though…

"Eh!? Sh-… Shota-chan. Is Onee-chan ugly? Have you... have you grown tired of Onee-chan's looks?" Ayame stuttered while feigning a tearful expression.

Shotaro just rolled his eyes and sighed at his sister's questions and said, "…Ayame-nee, you're overreacting again. You know I didn't mean it like that."

"R-really?"

"Yes, really." He affirmed before finally turning his eyes towards the still silent 'Gura' and proceeded…

"I mean… Since we're going to live a new life in another world and leave our past behind, I just thought that new identity and appearance would suffice, am I right?"

Hearing his words, Ayame also thought about it in her mind and couldn't help but agree, "Well, if you put it like that, I suppose you are right. Not that we really need it."

In the end, the siblings both turned their eyes towards the Goddess in front of them who couldn't help but sigh and...

"Fine! Just think of it inside your mind."

"YES!" Shotaro exclaimed and proceeded to think of an image of a person inside his mind.

"Fufufu~"

Ayame on the other hand just chuckled at her brother's behavior. But then, she suddenly thought of someone's appearance from her brother's secret stash inside his room.

"...Alright. Now, both of your appearances will change as soon as you arrive in the Demon Slayer World."

----

Somewhere atop an isolated and cold mountain where everything was snow and ice as far as a person's eyes could see...

"Eh? Where is-..."

An elegant and ultimately beautiful fair-skinned woman whose physical appearance seemed to be overflowing with maturity yet at the same time youthful charm opened her eyes and curiously asked.

"Whe- Argh!..."

She slowly pushed herself up and began looking around trying to recognize where she was.

But a moment later, a head-splitting headache suddenly erupted within her head which causes her to slump back to the cold, and thickly snow-covered ground.

What came with the pain were memories of the previous events that happened. However, the pain went as quickly as it came, as if it never happened in the first place.

Although she still felt lightheaded, she couldn't help but feel relieved and began sorting out her thoughts...

"Ha~ so we finally transmigrated, huh? And it seems like we're somewhere in a snowy place"

She said when she remembered everything that had happened while caressing the ground beneath her as if she wasn't bothered by the cold ambiance of winter.

But all of a sudden, she couldn't help but panic when she remembered that she was transmigrated along with her younger brother...

"Shota-chan!"

She exclaimed and once more, pushed herself up when she noticed a heavy feeling on her.

"When did my bust get this bi-"

She wondered when she remembered her brother's request at the last moment before transmigration...

'Hmm... This must be my new body. So was this the reason why I felt something heavy on me?'

She thought but saw a person's head with thick and short white hair just below her boobs.

'This must be Shota-chan's new look...'

She thought and held who she assumed was her brother's shoulders before completely lifting her body into a sitting position.

She then slowly and carefully lay his head on her lap and gently caressed his hair with her dainty fingers.

'Strange... I don't feel cold despite being here.'

She wondered in her thoughts before deciding to wake her brother up so they can decide how to proceed from there but before she could...

"Hmm~ Ayame-nee..."

The white-haired boy opened his eyes and lazily lifted his body to a sitting position while mumbling her name.

"Shota-chan?" she asked.

And when the white-haired boy who was rubbing his eyes suddenly heard her voice, he turned to look at her when...

"Eh-... Eh!? Ra- Raikou!?"

He was stupefied and abruptly jumped up when he saw her face...

"W-wait... wait, wait, wait... Why is your hair White? And... A-and your eyes Red?" he asked with a shaky voice while pointing his finger at her.

When the woman saw his stupefied reaction, she couldn't help but smile teasingly before asking...

"Fufufu~ so you don't recognize Onee-chan anymore, Shota-chan!?"

"...Aya- Ayame-nee!? Is that you?" he asked after a short while of speechlessness while still stuttering.

"Ara~ so you still recognized me after all. Fufufu~"

She said before proceeding to ask, "Am I more beautiful now? because right now, you're clearly more adorable than before."

His eyes widened and his mouth rounded even more as soon as he recognized that it was indeed his sister.

And when he suddenly thought of something, his cheeks heated up, and furiously blushed before shaking his head, shrugging the thought aside.

He was about to answer her when a 'ding' sound echoed from his ears before a blue holographic screen popped up in front of his eyes...

[Scanning Soul DNA... Complete]

[Binding... Complete]

[Commencing...]

It was then he remembered that the Goddess 'Gura' had given him... well, them a system before transmigrating.

And when the holographic screen suddenly popped out in front of him, he couldn't help but squeal and rejoiced inwardly. However...

[Selecting System... Complete]

[Welcome, to the 'L.E.S.S' Master!]

"Umu, umu! Hahaha! Yes!" He burst out laughing loudly as if he was crazy.

He was so out of it and didn't even bother what does the initials of his system means.

And after a moment of his joyful outburst, he turned towards her sister's beautiful face and was about to ask if she also successfully activated her system but then...

"Ayame-ne- Eh? what's wrong?"

He noticed that his sister's beautiful face was red, down to her neck. She also seemed to daze with her eyes forward and didn't even hear his words.

Feeling worried about what might have had happened that caused her to act like that, he immediately strode towards her and held her shoulders.

"Ayame-nee! Ayame-nee!" he called out to her and made sure to louden his voice while shaking her shoulders.

"... Eh, Eh!? Hmm?"

And when he successfully awoke her from her daze, she turned her eyes towards her brother's worried face and asked...

"W-What's wrong, Sh- Shota-chan?" she asked stutteringly.

"Your face... Your face is so red. Are you feeling sick?"

Hearing her brother's words, she cupped her cheeks with her hands in an abrupt manner and said...

"N-nothing... I'm fine."

At the same time, she also hurriedly stood up causing her upgraded bust to jiggle, and said, "C-come. Let's find a place to set up our house."

After finishing her words, she turned her back on him and walked forwards, and didn't even wait for him to respond.

"...What just happened?... Wait for me Ayame-nee." he wondered before he shouted and hurried towards her.
