Chapter 3: Preparing to Confront the Rape Spirits
Shit, my head...
Ethan slowly tried to sit up, the throbbing in his head turning into a sharp pain. As he brought his hand to his head, he felt the places he touched stitched up hard and covered with bandages. There were bandages stretching up to his neck and clumsy, deep stitches decorating his cheeks. His wounds still hurt.
He looked around, trying to open his eyes. In the pale white light, there was a young girl sitting next to him, looking at him with concern.
Megumi.
He noticed her presence but didn't care. Ethan's eyes stared ahead, empty and dull.
"Hyung, don't worry, I didn't call the police. Are you involved in a gang fight again?"
Note: (Ethan doesn't speak Japanese but Megumi speaks Japanese, so I'm writing in English for you to understand, but Ethan won't understand what Megumi is saying).
The Japanese words coming out of Megumi's lips were like a meaningless humming in Ethan's head. He could only hear the words "can, gin, con". He didn't try to understand. Instead, his mind slowly began to clear.
And that's when that damn system inside Ethan started talking.
[Ding! Host, the mission is about to begin. May the force be with you.]
Ethan's face darkened as he heard the cocky intonation at the end of the voice. "May the force be with you"? The mocking voice instantly pumped anger through Ethan's veins. His rage was so intense that he choked on his own saliva.
unhappy ending.

When he heard the sound of the system, everything suddenly clicked into place.
This was the world of that ridiculous hentai story he had read last night. Ethan woke up in the morning to find himself the older brother of the main character. And the more he thought about what had happened to her. Especially as he remembered the events that had somehow led to him becoming what he was because of this girl. He wanted to strangle her to death right here, right now.
But the system had a penalty. Death.
Ethan thought for a moment. He did not care about death. But he had a feeling: The punishment of this system would probably be something worse than death. Maybe it would be... Reliving this pain over and over again.
He quickly tried to get up from the bed, but his body was not yet ready for it. He lost his balance and stumbled.
"Brother!!!"
Megumi immediately reached out and grabbed him; he almost fell to the floor.
Ethan took a brief look at her face, then nodded and accepted the support. He managed to stand up with Megumi's help, but he completely ignored her, shifting his attention elsewhere.
Despite the pain in his head, he started moving forward, guessing where the kitchen might be. As he walked towards it, he ignored Megumi's worried glances behind him. The most important thing for him right now was to complete the mission, he had to prepare for it, but in the back of his mind, questions about the rules of this world and the games the system played.
But right now he needed to focus on the mission, he needed to get away from these thoughts. just then his ability started to work.
*Ding, Calm mind (Faster Decision Making) is working*
*Ding, Calm mind (Quick Planning at Critical Moments) works*
Ethan quickly went into the kitchen and started rummaging around and found a small pot and put it on the one burner stove and turned it on.
*why is there a one burner stove in this fucking house*
Ethan continued to grumble and quickly opened the fridge and as he expected he saw a bunch of unbranded drinks and quickly grabbed one, opened it and drank it.
*ohhhh, wait, I mean alcohol!!!
Ethan had found what he was looking for, he quickly took a bunch of beers out of the fridge and put them on the kitchen table.
He went back to the cupboard and picked up the drink in a green glass bottle.
*hopefully this is what I think it is* Ethan unscrewed the cap and took a lick.
*Rice flavor, yes this must be sake!
Info : (Genshu sake: undiluted sake, higher alcohol content than regular sake, around 20%)
He quickly took the bottle out of the cupboard and put it on the kitchen table.
He then rummaged under the table and found an oil can and quickly took it out and started pouring it into the pot on the stove.
When the pot was full of oil, he put the oil can in a corner for later use while he opened the upstairs door and took a plastic bucket from there, then opened the lid of two beer cans and started pouring them in.
When he finished pouring, he immediately put the beer cans aside.
At the same time he quickly took off his black t-shirt revealing his big bulging body muscles but he looked a bit greasy.
It made him look more charismatic instead of just a creature of muscle.
He quickly ripped off his clothes and threw them into the beer bucket and stirred it, then took the piece of cloth and put it in the sake bottle.
*Homemade Molotov, hahahahaha!
He immediately started pouring the can of oil he had set aside into the beer can and when it was completely empty, he stopped and threw the can.
*hmhmhmhmhmhmhmhmhhmmm, Fly me to the moon...* While Ethan was doing this, he was humming a song to lift his spirits a little more.
Music =(Neon Genesis Evangelion - Fly me to the moon.)
Ethan then opened the drawer and took out a bunch of cutlery, then quickly turned his attention to the microwave, quickly opened the oven and started filling it with cutlery and empty beer cans.
He then turned the microwave off and set the timer next to it for 05:38, which would start the microwave after the minute he had written was up.
All the while he was thanking his father for his life before he died, his father was a chemistry professor and he was his father's apprentice!
