Some kind soul can help me?
What part are you failing on? The earliest one, assuming you have Calibre installed already, is that you should be downloading from the releases page and not trying to download the entire code repository.

Is there a way to make epub show page numbers?
First option is to use Count pages plugin, and second option is to use kfx output, which you can enable option to create approximate page numbers. Also worth mentioning that the kfx outputs also supports x-ray and word wise, if you use WordDumb plugin.

Onyx Boox e-reader
Mostly cause I got a good workflow going and I buy most of my ebooks from amazon. I use stuff like this anki add-on to mine sentences (although I have kinda stopped doing this lately) and got this jmdict dictionary for kindle which is pretty nice. I could probably set up something with the Onyx Boox reader and yomichan like others have mentioned but at this point I'm too lazy. Also the kindle is smaller and more portable, the Boox I have is slightly larger and better for manga though.

My tips for using Mushoku Tensei as Japanese light novel reading practice, having completed one volume a week for two months
I frequently found that the Kindle's Japanese-Japanese dictionary was too hard to understand (without a second dictionary), and the Japanese-English dictionary simply didn't recognise words. I finally waved the flag on learning via a Japanese-Japanese dictionary and tried out jmdict-kindle. It's way better! It recognises generally more words than either of the two dictionaries from before, displays the pitch accent (I cannot overstate how valuable this is for your speaking), and shows some handy example sentences.
