High School DxD:Milking System World

After taking Aika—who was still a bit dizzy and confused—home, Jin returned to his own house. Surprisingly, Aika's house was located just one station away from his, so he only needed to escort her to the station before she headed home by herself.

By the time Jin walked back home, the sky had already turned dark, and the streets were mostly empty. Although it was unusual for Japan to have such deserted streets, even at night, Kuoh Town was relatively small compared to Tokyo, so such a sight was normal for Jin.

Familiar with the route, he quickly made his way home. After walking for about ten minutes, he arrived at his house, opened the door, and greeted as usual.

"I'm home."

It was a simple, everyday greeting—or so he thought.

Suddenly, his brother, Issei, burst out from the shadows, approaching him at lightning speed as if he had teleported. Grabbing Jin by the shoulders, he shouted excitedly.

"Nii-san! You're finally here! I've been waiting for you forever!"

His lips curled into a grin so wide it looked almost unnatural, and his face was inches away from Jin's.

'Disgusting!' Jin thought as he shoved Issei's face away with a grimace.

"Back off! Personal space, please!"

"Oh! Sorry!"

Issei stepped back, still grinning like an idiot as he scratched the back of his head. Normally, it was their mother or father who responded when Jin arrived home, so having Issei greet him—especially in such an over-the-top manner—was a rare occurrence.

Jin quickly tried to analyze the situation. What could have possibly made his perverted brother this excited?

There had been times when Issei got hyped after discovering a rare JAV with limited copies, but that excitement wasn't nearly as intense as what Jin was witnessing now.

'So, what's different this time?' Jin pondered. 'Did he manage to peek at Katase and Murayama's boobs? Nah, that would only give him temporary excitement.'

'Wait… there's no way he got a girlfriend… or drank milk like I did, right?' Jin thought, chuckling inwardly at the absurd idea. But then, Issei dropped a bombshell.

"Guess what? A girl confessed to me earlier!"

Jin froze on the spot.

'Wait… WHAT?!'

For a moment, Jin wondered if he had misheard. Maybe he was still feeling lightheaded from drinking too much milk earlier. After all, the idea of his brother—one of the infamous Perverted Trio—being confessed to by a girl was almost impossible.

"Hahaha! Issei, can you say that again?" Jin laughed, patting his brother's shoulder as if he had just heard the world's funniest joke.

"Huh? Sure. Maybe you're still tired from your date with Aika or something," Issei said, shrugging. "I said a girl confessed to me earlier, right after school. I ditched Matsuda and Motohama because I wasn't in the mood to peek, and that's when a black-haired beauty stopped me and told me she liked me!"

This time, Jin's laughter died in his throat as he processed the information.

A black-haired beauty… stopped Issei after school… and confessed her love to him?

Yeah, no. There was no way that was real. Something smelled fishy—very, very fishy.

"Are you sure it wasn't a prank?" Jin asked seriously, gripping Issei's shoulders with both hands. He squeezed hard enough that Issei winced in pain.

"Ow! Nii-san, that hurts! But no, I don't think it's a prank. She asked me out on a date this Saturday, so we're gonna meet up then. I can't wait!" Issei replied, his smile radiating pure joy.

As Jin stared at his brother's beaming face, he slowly let go of his shoulders and stepped back.

"Wait here," Jin muttered before bolting inside the house.

He headed straight for the dining room, where his parents were. His mother, Miki, was wiping a plate with a clean cloth, while his father, Gorou, sat at the table sipping coffee and reading a magazine.

Bursting into the room, Jin shouted, "Mom! Dad! You won't believe this—Issei said a girl confessed to him!"

"What?!" Miki gasped, dropping the plate in her hands. The porcelain shattered against the floor, but she didn't even react. She stood frozen in place, her eyes wide with shock.

At the same time, Gorou did a spit-take, spraying coffee all over his magazine. He wiped his mouth and turned to Jin with a stunned expression.

"Did you say… a girl confessed to Issei?! A real girl?! Not a hallucination? Not his alarm clock?"

"Yes! It's the end of the world!" Jin declared dramatically.

"IT'S NOT!" Issei yelled as he entered the room, glaring at the three of them.

"Oh my… Issei, you're serious?" Miki asked, her voice trembling.

"Yeah! And we're going on our first date this Saturday!" Issei replied proudly.

"T-Then…" Miki stammered before suddenly shouting, "It's party night! Dear! Our Issei has finally graduated from his imagination!"

"Yes, dear!" Gorou exclaimed, tears welling up in the corners of his eyes. He placed the wet magazine aside and wiped his face with the back of his hand. "I'm so proud of you, Issei. You've finally moved past those fake boobs…"

"Mom… Dad…!" Issei's voice cracked with emotion as tears filled his eyes. "Thank you!"

"Come here, Issei! Let's celebrate with some meat!"

The three of them hugged each other in a warm family embrace. Jin was invited to join, but he politely declined, saying he needed a shower after walking around town.

Dinner that night was more extravagant than usual. The whole family enjoyed a feast, celebrating Issei's unexpected success with girls. Despite finding the situation suspicious, Jin couldn't help but smile as he watched his brother's genuine happiness.

'He may be a pervert, but he's still my brother. It's good to see him this happy.'

After dinner, Jin returned to his room and flopped onto his bed, staring up at the ceiling with his hands behind his head.

"A girl confessed to Issei, huh…? That's very, very suspicious. And I need to emphasize very because this whole situation smells fishy."

The timing was too much of a coincidence. Jin's System had activated just this morning, and now a mysterious black-haired beauty had approached Issei out of nowhere.

"I need to find out more about this girl. She might be something other than a normal human. Either she's targeting me because she knows about my System, or she's after Issei for some other reason. Who knows?" Jin muttered to himself. "Right now, I'm missing two things: information… and the ability to protect myself."

The System had already mentioned the existence of magic and other humanoid races. It didn't take a genius to figure out that the supernatural world was hidden from ordinary people. Considering that, the sudden appearance of a beautiful girl interested in Issei was suspicious at best.

"But if she turns out to be a normal girl… I guess I'll have to teach Issei how to treat her like a gentleman. Maybe it's time to shatter his harem dreams once and for all," Jin chuckled, remembering how his brother had boldly declared his goal of becoming a Harem King when they started high school.

"Either way… if she's dangerous, I'll do what I have to do. I'll milk her, steal her abilities, and if necessary… I won't hesitate to kill her. Right, Lady Selene?"

He raised his hand toward the ceiling, recalling the goddess who had granted him a second chance at life. Her words echoed in his mind: "Never hesitate to kill your enemies—or you'll be the one who dies."

'I understand now, Lady Selene. I'll do whatever it takes to survive in this world.'

As sleepiness began to wash over him, Jin closed his eyes and allowed himself to drift off, his mind already preparing for the challenges that lay ahead.
