Does Growing Up Mean No Longer Relying on Your Brother?

[The Ghost King Brother arc is complete] [The Ninja Brothers arc is complete] [The Assassin Brother arc is in progress]

As a homebody and gaming streamer, Kasuga Kazuya has nearly played every full-dive game on the market.

A few days ago, Kasuga Kazuya received a full-dive game for beta testing from a certain company. It was called "Does Growing Up Mean No Longer Relying on Your Older Brother?"

This is a role-playing game. Players enter the game as a younger brother and interact with the main characters, their older brothers, to reach various endings.

The game has three major selling points.

First, its incredibly realistic simulation. It's said to recreate the real world with 99% accuracy, and every game world has its own distinct flavor. The settings are comprehensive, ranging from modern urban superpowers to tales of yokai in the Warring States period and ghost stories from Heian-kyo. All NPCs are equipped with the most advanced AI models and are almost indistinguishable from real people.

Second, its extraordinary freedom. There are almost no restrictions in the game. Players can move and talk as they please, and whether they achieve a happy ending where the brothers love each other or a bad ending where they kill each other is up to them.

Third... ahem, the game can reportedly only be loaded after verifying that the player is an adult, and its content is quite explicit. As long as the player can do it, the game won't forbid anything.

Kasuga Kazuya is determined to see just how explicit this game can get.

World One: The Evil Spirit Older Brother in the Heian-kyo Era (Complete)

Kasuga Kazuya was lured in by the gorgeous character portrait of a black-haired, red-eyed older brother labeled an evil spirit. He'd expected brotherly affection and cuddles, but less than half an hour into the game, he'd already gotten a game over: his evil spirit brother had shoved him into a pond.

The evil spirit brother stands there in layers of elaborate, warm clothing, his hands folded together. A faint smile rests on his face as he stares without blinking at Kasuga Kazuya struggling in the pond, undisguised amusement glimmering in his eyes.

Kasuga Kazuya: "..."

Back at the login screen, the adult version of the handsome evil spirit brother stares at Kasuga Kazuya without expression.

Kasuga Kazuya falls silent for two seconds, then rolls up his sleeves.

He refuses to believe it!

Once you get the hang of it, the second time is easy. Kasuga Kazuya quickly restarts the game and charges into the evil spirit brother's bedroom. This time, he not only forcibly hugs his brother but also pretends it was an accident when he knocks him down, pinning his frail older brother to the bed.

You may be an evil spirit, but just you wait!
