Chapter 3: A Meteoric Rise to Overpowered! (1)

Two days later, the digital clock in the living room displayed '2.11 PM: Thursday: April 14th, 2016.'

Within two days, nothing significant happened. Kasugano Siblings continued their every day lives according to their own routine.

Haru woke up when his alarm rang at six in the morning. He then had breakfast with his sisters before escorting Suzuka to Hakuo Academy at seven. After returning home, he spent an hour or so with Sora, usually helping Sora relieving her stress. He'd accepted the fact that Sora had a ridiculous libido. He started writing his novel after entertaining Sora until lunchtime at twelve.

After finishing their lunch, Haru and Sora returned to the living room. Haru continued his writing while Sora stayed around Haru, behaving like a lazy cat. At three-thirty in the afternoon, he picked Suzuka up from her school, then he had dinner with his sisters in the evening.

The three of them then spent the night to bond, meaning that Sora and Suzuka tried to get one up at each other. Haru de-escalated things whenever he was the sign of an impending cat-fight. It seemed like Sora and Suzuka often forgot about Haru's outburst when their emotions were high. Then, they returned to their own rooms at nine, ten at most.

Such was the rough version of what transpired within two days.

Now, let's focus on the moment. Haru and Sora were using the recliner together. While Haru was writing his novel at a rapid pace, Sora was laying her body on the rest of the sofa and using Haru's thigh as a pillow for her head.

At this moment, Haru was clad in a simple white T-shirt and a pair of shorts. Meanwhile, Sora was still in her nightgown.

Sora's eyes moved as she read Haru's works. She silently continued reading Haru's works for another ten minutes before she called her twin.

"Haru."

"Hm?"

"I have made my decision."

"About what?"

"The choices that you gave me two days ago."

Haru's fingers stopped after he heard Sora's words. He turned his head down to see Sora's face. Simultaneously, Sora slightly turned her head to see Haru's face.

Haru then released a sigh and rested his back on the backrest of the sofa. He had his right hand on Sora's head to caress her silky hair while his other hand rubbed his nape to loosen the kink on his neck. While doing that, Haru was preparing himself for Sora's answer.

Although Haru didn't know where he got the confidence, he had an inkling feeling about Sora's answer. His guts told him that Sora would answer positively. However, he decided to wait for the actual confirmation from her mouth.

Admittedly, Haru could 'Appraise' Sora to find the answer, but he decided not to do it.

"All right," Haru looked at Sora's face on his lap and said after he prepared himself. "Now, tell me."

Sora didn't immediately speak, opting to prepare herself with a simple breathing routine. Then, she opened her eyes and spoke up.

"I don't mind sharing you with Suzuka as long as you let me be with you. I," She paused for a short time, seemingly struggling for words.

Haru stopped caressing her hair but kept his right hand on her head. At the same time, he put the index finger of his left hand on Sora's lips, silently telling her to stop.

"Thank you," Haru said. "And sorry. It must be hard."

"Very." Sora averted her eyes and pouted. "My mind was struggling to accept the idea, but if it lets me be with you, I don't mind indulging your selfishness. Just don't abandon me when you have another girl. If you dare to do it, I swear I'm going to stab you."

Haru unintentionally made a wry smile when he heard Sora's threat. When he 'Appraised' her, he discovered that she was only half-serious with that. Although it was only half-serious, he still felt his heart palpitating. Hence, he silently promised to make Sora happy.

"Thank you very much." Haru sincerely thanked her before changing the topic, "By the way, have you told Suzuka about this matter? I've been seeing her deep in thought when she wasn't concentrating on talk lately. Also, she asked my stance regarding polygamy yesterday when I escorted her to Hakuo Academy."

"En," Sora faintly nodded. She then explained to Haru on how she made Suzuka consider the idea of sharing him with her.

"I see… You've done so much."

"I really want to be with you," Sora shyly confessed with a red face. She kept her eyes away from Haru's.

"Me too. I want to move our relationship forward, but I don't want to leave Suzuka behind."

"Geez, what a selfish man you are. I'm really a saint for indulging you like this, am I not?"

"You're better than a saint in my eyes."

*Snrk!* Sora snorted while covering her mouth with her hand. "Flattery gets you nowhere."

"Really? But, flattery gets me the acceptance of Saint Sora." Haru responded cheekily.

"Be quiet, you." Sora feigned her scowl. The next moment, Haru and Sora broke into a fit of chuckles.

"Ne, Haru," Sora called after they stopped their chuckling.

"Yes?"

"Kiss me."

"Sure."

When Haru lowered his head, Sora wrapped her arms around his neck and raised her head. At the same time, Haru had his right hand on her upper back, supporting her body. Then, their lips met, and it escalated quickly.

That day, Sora became hooked by her twin's cunnilingus, and Haru discovered that Sora's honey tasted tangy.

***

Another two days passed. Today was 'Saturday: April 16th, 2016.'

It was finally a weekend, and Suzuka, wearing her pink Bunny Pajama, had a day off of the demanding school's and student council's activities. Yet, she still prepared breakfast for her beloved brother and irritating sister early as always.

Speaking for the latter, Sora was still sleeping. She had a slightly red face and random fits of coquettish giggles in her sleep. She often murmured Haru's name. It was quite obvious what she was dreaming of.

Meanwhile, Haru was already awake and sitting on his swivel, facing his laptop. He finally completed the first volume of his novel.

"And now, send!" Haru mumbled as he sent the scripts as well as the formal letter to Kodokawa Bunko's e-mail address. "Well, I can only wait now. I hope that I will get the answer soon."

Haru then accessed his Status Board to check Mysterious Lottery's cooldown time. There were only three hours and thirty minutes left until he could try it again.

"I can't wait for it. What kind of prize will I get this time?" Haru was full of anticipation. He wished time to pass quickly.

Feeling restless, Haru decided to come out of his room. He accidentally met Suzuka, who was walking in the direction of his bedroom. She was likely going to call him for breakfast.

"Ah. Good morning, Onii-chan." Suzuka greeted him after she stopped in front of him.

"Morning to you too, Suzuka," Haru replied Suzuka's greeting. He didn't forget her head pet and got rewarded with a faint blush and twitching lips on her face.

Haru wryly smiled when he saw Suzuka's attempt to keep her composed mask. He preferred if she let loose and display a silly expression from his head pat, though.

"Have you prepared breakfast?"

"Yes. It's a light breakfast with the leftover from yesterday's diner."

"Whatever the menu, I have faith in your cooking, Suzuka. Surely, they will be delicious."

Suzuka lowered her face and hid it behind her bang. Then, she released a faint "Ufufufu~" sound in response to Haru's praise. When she raised her face, she had her usual composed mask.

Haru had a great urge to laugh at her cute behavior. Her effort to look mature was so cute! However, he held his urge to tease her because he didn't want to make Suzuka angry at him."Well, I'll wake Sora up. You can wait for us in the kitchen."

Suzuka frowned and shook her head. "No. Allow me to wake Nee-san up. Meanwhile, you go wash your face, Onii-chan."

"All right," Haru didn't argue and let Suzuka wake Sora up. Then, he went to the bathroom to wash his face.

***

A few hours passed after breakfast. Haru and the rest went on their plan.

For Haru, he returned to his room to write the second volume of his novel. Sora entertained herself with TV programs. Lastly, Suzuka did some house chores because she couldn't stay silent.

At nine in the morning, Haru went out shortly to print out and create copies of the first volume of his novel. He'd promised to Sora and Suzuka to give her a copy of the scripts. Although Sora had accompanied Haru when he wrote those scripts, she couldn't properly enjoy the story. Hence, she also asked for a copy.

After giving the copies to Sora and Suzuka, Haru holed himself in his bedroom. He was impatiently waiting for the end of Mysterious Lottery's cooldown.

Finally, the time was 9.32 AM. The grayed-out text of Mysterious Lottery on his Status Board turned white.

It was time to try it out again!

"I have a feeling that I will get something good!" Haru said out of the blue. He felt like he was confident with his luck because of his Plot Armor. After all, one of Plot Armor's effect was amplifying his good luck.

Haru used his Mysterious Lottery ability without hesitation. Then, a notification screen soon popped up in his field of vision. He then dismissed it and accessed his Item Box. Within Item Box, he saw his prize, but he became perplexed by the appearance of the random Lottery's prize. It looked like a green-colored seed.

Haru 'Appraised' the unknown green seed and became stunned by the result.

'H-holy shit! Wow! Just wow! I don't know what to think!'
