Chương 3: Training and Planning
"Onii-chan, let's finish this training session now." Mizuha, who had learned from her father that overtraining can also injure the trainer, was well aware of the physical stress that Itsuki was under after watching him train and practice for an hour.
"Alright! I am also done with it." Itsuki felt a little lightheaded as he sat on the couch after learning the new blessing this time—the significant loss of thirty Lp. He felt the world go blank, but soon the world began to gain light again where Mizuha, who was sitting at his side with a worried look,.
"Are you alright? I will go shopping alone, so try to take some rest." Itsuki shook his head as he looked at the time and considered preparing for the dinner.
So, after hearing Itsuki point, Mizuha did not try to go against him and nodded with a smile on her face.
The siblings set out for the smart point, a supermarket near their house.
As Mizuha looked after Itsuki, she made sure he would not have any problems; if not, she would send him away with force or take him to the doctor.
While Mizuha waited for him at the entrance, Itsuki pushed and unlocked the cart, and the two of them entered the supermarket.
Holding Mizuha's hand, Itsuki pushed it through the supermarket aisles.
"What would you like to eat today, Mizuha?" Itsuki had been smitten with his younger sister for a long time, and when her brother asked him, Mizuha casually responded.
"Anything works; as long as I can eat with my big brother, I do not mind eating anything at dinner." Itsuki sighed, recalling from old host memories how two of them had only eaten cup ramen for a week, making him feel sorry for the little girl in front of him.
Mizuha did not seem to have any preferences, so Itsuki made the decision to arbitrarily choose some vegetables for a balanced diet, along with some cabbage and other ingredients for salad—basically, a component of his own newly devised diet—and some meat for a meat stew.
Ultimately, consuming meat stew was the most effective method for a developing body to obtain the necessary vitamins and proteins to build muscle, which he will be aiming for in his later training sessions.
Not to mention that Itsuki was confident he would continue to gain experience for the sword skill even if he did not work very hard and kept reading about martial arts, but having a strong physique will be extremely beneficial for his growth and disease-free body.
Two of them went home after finishing their shopping, and Itsuki got to work making dinner. Although it was early, Itsuki did not mind since the two were very hungry and would have been happy to eat lunch early.
Itsuki was aware that during the ancient era of the earth, great sages ate dinner between 6 and 7 p.m., but that later, due to urbanization and working hours, dinner was moved to the nighttime between 8 and 9 p.m. because people tend to sleep after eating, which is thought to be very unhealthy and can be harmful to health.
"Hmm, where did you learn this, Onii-chan?" While explaining the things of wisdom to Mizuha, Itsuki had a bright smile, as he thought how his previous world knowledge was really something this world truly lacks.
"Hmm, I will use it in my Me tuber video stream." With the exception of Itsuki, nobody knew Mizuha's true occupation because she was a well-known Me tuber with a large fan base due to her attractiveness and habit of wearing a silver hair wig when applying makeup.
"Okay!"
Before they finished their meal, the two of them joked around a little.
At that point, Itsuki became serious and began to consider whether he would be able to use light novel ideas from his former world—such as "Sword Art Online" or other well-known works like "Harry Potter"—in light novel work to make more money and lead a better life.
Not to mention that he had watched the entire movie and anime, so they are undoubtedly a treasure trove for him, so Itsuki was confident they would go viral here as well. Furthermore, it seemed like a foolish move to refuse to use them and to insist on writing my own story—after all, his sister's and his own lifestyle flexibility will come from his job success.
'Let's go with that...'
After deciding to work on his past life's work, Itsuki began to conduct some thorough research to determine whether or not his idea would capture the attention of readers.
He did this by using a different title and a few minor modifications, just like he would in any fanfiction. Since there were so many attractive girls next to him in sword art online, he disliked that there was no harem tag, so Itsuki made the decision to slightly alter it.
Given that the concept of virtual reality has only recently gained popularity in the webnovel industry and that there are not many light novels with this theme, Itsuki was shocked by the experiment's outcome.
Nevertheless, he was certain that his idea would be a hit. Not to mention that 82% of readers of light novels are men, and harem-setting novels are highly popular among this demographic.
He thus used its name to immediately search the industry for any novel themes that resembled it. Discovering that he might have been the first to create it, he at last had a clear idea of what to do.
When he had finished pondering his options, Itsuki began working on his laptop. He had set a goal to finish the majority of this novel work in a week so that he could use the remaining time to train his body and master the sword style he had begun to train in.
[Would Host like to use Professional Scripters Blessing Stone: Cost 10 Lp]
[Total Lp: 100 points.]
[Buy Option: Accept/Decline.]
[Host Name: Itsuki Hiraku.] [Age: 18 years old.]
[Height: 1.87 m.] [Weight: 73 Kg.]

[Total Lp: 60 points.] [Initial Lp a living person have is equal to 50 points Max.] [Low!!!]
After an hour of work, Itsuki began to feel fatigued and took a short break before returning to his work.
This was because he was a fan of the writing and, with the help of the scripter, he was able to recall the novel clearly as well as identify its flaws and use his newly acquired skills to write a much better version of it.
After working for two hours straight without stopping, Itsuki began to feel fatigued. He got up from his seat, stretched, and looked for Mizuha while looking at the first chapter of his new novel. Later, they watched a movie in the hall together.
Before the movie started, two of them had prepared some midnight snacks and soup to sip.
Mizuha had recently become interested in anime, and when the show ended, it was already past ten, so he asked her to go to bed early.
"Good night, big brother." Without raising an objection, Mizuha gave Itsuki a quick neck hug and a quick peck on the cheeks before leaving for her room.
[Lp + 10]
Itsuki's mind went blank, touching his cheeks, and then an automatic voice suddenly echoed inside his head. It was then that he realized that this was the only way he could gain LP.
He paused to consider his options before moving toward the bathroom, where Mizuha emerged from a revitalizing bath, and Itsuki asked.
"Come give your brother a good-night hug." After giving her brother a quick hug and considering that he had never asked her before, Mizuha decided that it was okay and returned to her room.
[Ding!] [Lp + 15]
[Congratulation Host: You have acquired title 'Genius.']
[Title: Genius.] [Requirement: Host need to gain more than three blessing in a single day.]
[Passive Ability: Depending on how many blessings the host needs and how uncommon they are, will add experience to each blessing within every 5 hour.]
Itsuki checks his system upon hearing the notification bell, and a smile appears on his face as a super cheat-like title appears in his arsenal. After all, he truly needed this, and in addition, he felt confident about his prospects for the future because, even in the absence of any effort on his part, he would still be able to achieve greatness in this world. To that, merely lounging around and not trying to work his ass out.
'Truly, a genius title.' When Itsuki examined the passive effect, he discovered that the present blessings were giving him eight points of experience every hour, with his twin strike awarding him five points and the other blessings awarding him one point each.
[Note: From now on, I will refer to skills rather than blessings because writing blessings every time gets very tedious and they are similar to the isekai-based blessings that are typically given by god in light isekai novels.]
After returning to his room and finally being able to unwind on his bed, Itsuki could not help but sit up from his bed and begin making plans to earn more money in order to assist someone. He also remembered that a significant event might occur at that same time.
[Sasa Miyanagi will have a problem soon enough!]
[Should I help her out?] [But!!!]
Itsuki could not make up his mind when he recalled how another favorite character of his from another novel always muttered. 'It is not the courage that you need to help! But it is the heart to care for others that is needed to have a brave heart.'
[It is not the courage that you need to help, but it is the heart to care for others that is needed to have a brave heart.]
His thoughts were very clear, as was his feeling when those thoughts raced through the hearts of several girls; the closest of them, Mizuha, felt the greatest ripple in her heart as she opened her eyes and gave it some thought.
'Is that you, Itsuki!' She began to occasionally hear Itsuki's thoughts, so she had a suspicion that it might be him, but she was unable to determine if it was him or someone else.
