One month ago, Shotaro Koyanagi didn't expect to get magically teleported into the world of his favorite game, RuneSky Online! To him, it all happened so quickly. He was simply playing as usual, got blinded by a bright light from his monitor, and found himself in the fantastical town of Grimwalt…alongside his mother and both his elder sisters?
His family (except his father, who wasn't home at that time) somehow also followed him into the game. After a little bit of confusion, all four family members were met with a status screen, and each saw that they were blessed with a special ability. There was also a notice on the screen, saying that they must "defeat the demon king and his subordinates" to make it back to Japan. A classic scenario.
Shotaro was excited at first. He decided it was best for them to do some adventuring as they find a way out. It's fun, and keeps their income stable. With their sheer strength, Shotaro and his overpowered family became the second strongest party in the Grimwalt Guild! To his happiness, his family also seemed to be exploring new areas, killing monsters, and helping out the common folk. Despite that, he can't help but feel like the dynamic between them was…starting to grow different.

"Shotaro!! Watch out" Yelled a concerned but soft voice.
"Ueh?" Shotaro groaned. It seems like he had been daydreaming about the past. He looked up to see that a massive, muscular gray skinned troll was about to squash his body with a massive wooden club. In fear, he braced for impact and closed his eyes, but then heard a loud "CLANG" instead.
"Don't you DARE hurt him!" Yelled the same voice from earlier. Shotaro opened his eyes to see that his mother, Nari, had parried the club with her holy sword. A golden hue sparked out of the weapon. Nari pushed the troll back easily and knelt down to her son and caressed his cheek, "Shotaro..are you hurt?" Even so, she towered over his small, skinny frame.
"N-no Mama I'm good!" Shotaro smiled. Nari ruffled his black, messy hair and stood up. She had a white armored dress with a gold trim on, coupled with luxurious black leggings and a flowing cape. The dress also revealed her cleavage, bare arms, and her mature hourglass shape. She looked rather young for her age, and the makeup definitely played a part. Her well-kept black hair with a small braid swept from the wind of the falling troll. "Don't lose focus baby~" she cooed, turning back to the enemy.
A transparent gold star halo appeared on the top of her head, as well as two feathered golden wings from her back. Her sword started to glow golden as well as she held it in front of her, ready to pounce. Nari's blessing is with the Divine Aspect. She can wield holy swords and use the powerful Golden Magic, which can create golden spear-like projectles, help her fly, and send out a wave of golden energy.
Suddenly, the duo heard footsteps behind them coming closer. "This guy went for Shotaro first huh?" Yelled a coarse but feminine voice from behind then, "Weak ass won't even fight someone his level."
"Big sis!" Shotaro yelled, looking up at Rin.
"Rin, let's attack at the same time." Nari exclaimed, "Follow Mama's lead, okay?"
"Yeah sure." Rin readied herself and gripped her Halberd with two hands. Shotaro looked at his eldest big sister in awe. To him, she was just pure badassery. She'd always protect (and bully) him as a kid, and she's been doing the same now with her Warrior's Blessing. She gets enhanced strength, health, and agility, as well as mastery over all forms of weaponry. Though, she does prefer to use her halberd.
Rin had short black hair with earrings to compliment her tomboy persona. She had gray armor on with black pants and a black top underneath. She also wore a white capelet on her left shoulder. Just like her mother, she was well endowed and had an hourglass shape, just with a little more muscle.
Just then, the three were surrounded by a transparent, light blue shield. Shotaro looked to his left to see his other big sister, Fumiko. She held her staff between her legs in preparation.
"W-wait for me!" She softly cooed, "H-He didn't hurt you anywhere, right Shotaro?!"
"No Fumi-Ne, I'm good."
She had her signature large circular glasses on, complemented by her wavy, dyed brown hair and swept bangs. A cute look, boosted only by her nose blush. She had a white robe on, with purple accents and an intricate gold pattern near her sleeves. Her bosom was the biggest of the three, and her waist matched their size. Though, it might be hard to see with all that cloth on her. With all her strength, she slammed the bottom of her staff to the ground with a determined look on her face.
"Ki Chain!" She yelled. Suddenly, light blue vines grew from the ground and locked the dazed toll into place. It let out an ear piercing roar, shaking the ground. This was her blessing: Ki - an energy source parallel to mana. Using this, Fumiko is able to manipulate it to do almost anything she wants. The only limit is her imagination. She prefers to use it as a support as it has innate healing capabilities.
"Alright!" Rin jumped into the air with the axe above her head and landed on the Trolls heart, slashing it open and creating a gaping wound. Blood shot out and onto her body as she leaped back out.
Nari then flew to the Troll's legs and arms, swiftly cutting them off with her sword. The troll roared in pain as it tried to escape the Ki vines.
"Now Shotaro!" Nari yelled. Shotaro pulled out his crossbow, loaded an arrow onto it, and aimed it at the giant's head. He pushed his long black messy hair away from his good eye, focused up, and pulled the trigger.
The arrow barely struck between the troll's eyes, but went deep enough to penetrate its brain. The troll let out a final roar, and fell to silence.
Fumiko ran up to her brother and gave him a big hig from behind. She lifted him up and started to twirl around as if he was a stuffed animal. "Yaay that's another one!" She giggled.
"Ack! Put me down Fumi-Ne!" Shotaro blushed.
The bloodied Rim walked up her younger siblings and wrapped her arms around them, bringing them closer to them. "How are your levels lil bro?" she said, as Fumiko tried to squeeze her way out of her grip.
"Uhh, let's see." Shotaro opened up his status panel and eyed his blessing—The Sleeper. In RuneSky, this blessing was made for experienced players. It made leveling hard and expected players to fight with weak equipment. As a reward, a massive boost will be given to the player, giving them power equivalent to a God. Shotaro unfortunately was running this before he got transported to this world, hence why he was stuck with it. The only problem is that in the time he's spent in the world, it doesn't seem like he's making that much progress.
Shotaro looked at the requirement, which only moved by a tick. It doesn't say when he'll get that boost. "Rin-Ne, the requirement still isn't met." He sighed.
"Still?!"
"Now then Shotaro," cooed Nari, "There's still time! Mama and your sisters will protect you until you're ready, okay?"
"Y-yeah. Okay." Shotaro blushed. It sucks to get babied around like this, but if they weren't around, Shotaro might've died already. He closed his status panel and put his crossbow away. "So uhh, What's the next mission Mama?"
Nari opened her dimensional sack and pulled out a parchment. She showed it to her kids, who looked at it in shock. It was a bounty for the Legendary Phoenix that is about to awake from its slumber. In RuneSky, this was a brutal bossfight.
"T-that looks scary Mama…" Fumiko whimpered.
Rin scoffed, "Huh?! You'te just a baby Fumi, that thing is slight…"
"Hey! I am NOT a baby!"
"GIRLS!" Clapped their mother, "Yes it's a hard fight, but we need Shotaro to meet the requirements as soon as possible, right? Besides, the guild wanted us to work with Gunther for the mission. He'll help us with some extra firepower."
"Gunther?" Shotaro thought. He knew Gunther was the strongest NPC at the guild. If he's remembering correctly, he was tall and strong, wielding a heavy broadsword. He had tanned skin with a blonde buzzcut. He had earrings, wore dark gray pants and a dark red cloak, with nothing covering his top.
The only thing that irked Shotaro was his blessing—Womanizer. Basically, he gets stronger the more women are around him. He might also have mind control powers for women only? Shotaro wasn't sure of the second part, but the first one still sent chills down his spine. Regardless, if this will get him levels, it must be done.
"I dunno who he is, but as long as we get Shotaro, we're fine." Rin smirked, "Our very own moral support."
"Yeah! We don't need anyone extra in our family, right?!" Fumiko chimed in. Nari laughed a little seeing her cheery daughter.
"Y-yeah…" Shotaro stuttered, "that's right."
