31 Chapter 30

After questioning the nobles, what I got was that the unfortunate Kurotsu had been investigating me with spies for a few years, apart from the fact that the nobles also told me that Kurotsu ingested demon drug twice to increase his power and thus be able to level up faster in some dungeons.

After leveling up like a madman, feeling invincible he did not waste time and organized a small army with some nobles known to him, after some more time he achieved his goal and began to mobilize the small army towards my hometown, In just days the entire army was already within the walls and in just a few more days they began their siege of the mansion, according to the nobles he did not know of my absence in the city, not finding me in the mansion according to the stories he was furious and he said he was going to play with my sister, mother, Nana, Dina and even the mansion's maids until they died, just imagining for a moment the scenario almost executed the four nobles.

Luckily for the nobles they did not have very heavy crimes to pay, only some scams and small things, therefore, I let them live on the condition that they did not say anything and that if they tried something stupid it would destroy their entire city.

With the nobles out, the next ones who arrived at the mansion were Kurotsu's parents who I personally called them to an audience, when the parents arrived, I was impressed by how courteous they were, I checked their status and to my surprise they were quite good people, no they had no crime, I told them the facts and although they were quite sad and angry about the loss of their son, they refrained from doing something, they only told me that it was inevitable that someone would end up murdering him, without more than talking to the two parents they left.

With so much work in the mansion I told the girls to feel at home and leave them in the care of my mother and sister while with my father and brothers we solved all the paperwork disaster and that the news did not begin to spread anywhere on the other hand, to do that I had to bribe all the soldiers who walked with Kurotsu that day, it took a few days but we managed to do it without killing anyone, well almost no one, some refused and since they were not white doves I deleted them.

After fixing all the disaster I began to fix my personal disaster, I explained to my mother that my relationship with the girls was only one of comrades in arms, but I also told her alone that the truth was that I liked all four of them just like Dina and very there was probably a slightly older girl who I also liked quite well, my mother only told me that as long as I respected them that she had no problem with having several partners, on my father's side he told me that he was proud of me, some of my brothers sometimes just to joke they asked me if the girls had sisters to introduce them to them, Lala was a bit more complicated, although at first she seemed happy that she had returned when she found out that she was traveling with the girls the atmosphere became a bit rigid, she did not like them girls a lot, but he ended up accepting them.

Now, the one that cost me the most to calm down was Dina, her parents went to my house where they told me that she was very sad, according to what she told them was that she had cheated on her, both parents asked me to talk to her, I went to her house and they let me into her room where she was, at first she did not want to look at me and only told me a liar while I was crying, it was difficult, but after hugging her while she tried to get away from me she began to cry louder as she left to move and correspond to the hug, I was with her for hours while I just rubbed her head and whispered in her ear, I explained to her my meeting with the girls and that they were only my companions, but also how I felt that I was lying to her I also told her that I liked them and that they would very likely accept me, when I told her that she told me that if that was my decision I had no problem accepting it but not to forget my promise, I told her that I was always going to marry her at all costs and what and even if I had more wives I was not going to abandon her, although everything was for the future, I had not yet planned to marry.

With all those problems solved I returned to the mansion to rest, when I arrived at the mansion at night the girls were waiting for me in my room, I asked why they were not in their rooms and they told me that they wanted to sleep in my room, I did not object to their decision and I put other beds in the room for them to sleep, but they stopped me and told me that they wanted to sleep in the same bed that I slept, honestly I was quite surprised.

(I remember reading something like this in a book on how to understand women).

According to the book it said that when women felt that some other woman was getting too close to their man they would start to attract him more in the best of cases, I wanted to consult the book more thoroughly but I did not have time, quickly in the Inventory I created a bed big enough for us all to sleep without any discomfort, I just finished creating it and the girls lay on the sides as they told me to lie down in the center, fulfilling their wishes I did.

Since that night our relationship began to become closer, it was not up to the physical level but the girls were now much more open when talking to me about anything, rarely the same thing happened with Noel, of all she was the one who most It was hard for him to get used to sleeping in the same bed, the days passed and after living together everything returned to normal.

Currently I was with the girls on a date in which Dina was also accompanying us, mysteriously the girls related very well with Dina, after wandering from one place to another with the girls I asked them if they wanted to become adventurers like me, they quickly accepted the proposal, I warned them of the dangers involved in being an adventurer but even so they told me they had no problem, I took them all to the Adventurer's guild to register everyone except for Dina and Noel, upon arriving at the guild people stared at us strangely, although most of the glances went to the girls from the adventurers.

After a moment of waiting we got to the receptionist, I explained the situation to her and I went to sit in the dining room with Dina and Noel, I ordered food for the three of us, while we talked about some trivial things a pair of soft hands covered my eyes and a sensual you spoke to me in my ear.

Who I am?-???.

From the way she said it she had no idea who she was, but by calculating the odds of the place, the shape and the confidence, she was 90% sure who she was.

Liz? -Kasumi.

It's not okay, you found out with your skills-Liz.

No, just by calculation, no one else would be so daring to do this in this place-Kasumi.

Mmmm I don't believe you-Liz.

Like it was nothing, Liz sat down with us.

Who is she? -Noel.

With a slightly low tone, Noel asked something obvious.

She is a friend, Liz helped me a lot when I was in the city-Kasumi.

That same little girl, Kasumi and I have been together a lot of time, we looked at each other almost every day, I even went to dinner alone with him when she left-Liz.

As expected Liz started playing with the girls, she always liked to joke around and do that kind of thing.

What is this girl Kasumi saying? -Dina.

Well everything is true, the day I left I invited Liz to dinner as a gift for helping me in the guild-Kasumi.

You see, it's true, and you know that same day we… -Lia.

And since I was expecting Liz, the joke got out of hand and she told others, the moment Liz was silent, Dina and Noel turned to see me at the same time, I sighed a little waiting for the worst scenario.

He kissed me, Liz kissed me that day, it was short, but it was a kiss goodbye-Kasumi.

Kasumi, have you kissed someone before her? -Noel.

No, that was the first time-Kasumi.

So when you kissed me was the first time YOU kissed someone? -Noel.

Noel as if he were the bad guy in the story smiled when he said every word.

Yes-Kasumi.

Everything had already gotten out of control, there was no use trying to hide something in the interrogation they were doing to me, on the other hand, Liz seemed that she had lost.

I-it doesn't matter, I kept the first kiss from her, the second is not so important anymore-Liz.

Yes, but I was the first to be kissed by him, kissing is different from being kissed-Noel.

Who kissed who? -Yui.

I wanted to bury myself a few meters underground, if everything was already out of control, Arisa, Yui and Shiro had already returned and had overheard our conversation, I sighed again and looking at how the girls started talking, I slowly activated my stealth abilities and then my invisibility, without noticing my absence, I left the guild easily.

(Let them fix this, I'll just get in the way).

After leaving the battlefield I began to walk towards the other people I knew well in the city, after walking for a couple of minutes I arrived at Nana's house, as always happened Nana welcomed me happily, I began to talk with Nana about the things that I had experienced so far, including the question of the girls, incidentally I asked him what to do with all the disaster that there was, in my future plans there was only one wife and that's it, but fate put me in a position a bit hard.

How many are there in all? -Nana.

Arisa, Shiro, Yui, Noel, Dina and I guess Liz too, she's a complete mess-Kasumi.

Answer me honestly Kasumi, do you like them or do you love them all? -Nana.

To be honest, I don't want to leave them to anyone, just seeing how someone has bad intentions with one of them makes me quite upset, being so I can honestly say that I love them all, but I don't know if they will agree with that, ¿And if they do not agree? Will I have to choose only one of them? or would they think badly of me and turn away from me?, All those questions always haunt my mind, this is very complicated-Kasumi.

Let me tell you that you think too much, women are not that complicated when it comes to choosing someone, as long as they are attractive and a good person is enough, I am sure you are just exaggerating, you can invite them whenever you want so that we can talk-Nana.

I would really appreciate it-Kasumi.

I continued talking for a moment more with Nana until the lunch bells rang, Nana began to prepare to make lunch, but before she did something I stopped her and served everyone food from what I had stored in the Inventory, when finished to serve someone knocked on the door, I walked to the door and to my surprise the guest or rather guests were the girls.

How did you find me? -Kasumi.

It's a secret-Dina.

Without being able to stop them, the girls entered the house, I gave them a seat at the table and began to serve them the favorite dishes of each one, since I almost always cooked, it was not difficult for me to know what was the favorite food of each of them, at the end of Serving them I sat in the middle of Liz and Dina.

.....................

After having our lunch with Nana we continued with our date, although now Liz had also joined us, it honestly felt a bit strange walking around the city with 6 girls around me, but looking at them happily chatting with each other it seemed quite calm, After walking for a couple of hours I remembered one of the pending things I had to do.

Girls, I have something very important that I have to do and I honestly do not want you to accompany me, I will only take Noel-Kasumi.

Eh me? -Noel.

Yes, only you can accompany me, we will meet at the next bells, we will be in Bruce Park, Liz can guide you there-Kasumi.

Wait, why can only Noel go? -Yui.

Among all, Noel is different in one thing, I will go to withdraw that difference-Kasumi.

Of course he is different, he is an elf, right? Almost all of us are different-Dina.

I did not mean that, girls explain to Dina and Liz, see you-Kasumi.

Without more to say to the girls I went with Noel, while I was walking towards a slave shop with Noel I noticed that she was very quiet.

If you don't feel ready to go to the slave shop, we can go back to the girls-Kasumi.

No, I want to do this, I want to stop being afraid of remembering that place-Noel.

While Noel said those words she seemed quite scared, to calm her a little I hugged her and as I expected Noel returned the hug, after a comfortable hug we continued walking towards our destination, in just a few more minutes of walking we arrived at the slave store, upon arriving at the place we were detained by the guards but just by showing my noble identification they let me pass without saying anything, we just entered the store and were greeted by a couple of quite beautiful girls in maid costumes, the girls asked us our matter In a rather elegant way, worthy of nobles, I told them that I wanted to free Noel from his slavery, after hearing my words a girl went to call her master while the other guided me to a waiting room, after waiting a few minutes a rather elegant and fine looking man arrived.

Welcome to my humble establishment, my name is Mike, can you, Mr.Customer, tell me what the purpose of his visit is -Mike.

Nice to meet you Mr. Mike, the reason for my visit is to find out if he can remove a slavery contract-Kasumi.

The cost of eliminating a slave contract is only twenty silver coins, but that also depends on the race of the slave, in the event that it is the elf next to him it would be a total of one hundred coins, before ask why the difference in prices, I can assure you that eliminating a slavery contract is not just saying a few words and that's it, it is more complicated than it seems and in the case that the slave is of a different race it is more complicated, an example is an elf-Mike.

I understand, can I proceeded with the elimination of the contract-Kasumi.

Saying those words I put a small chest on the table, with a simple signal from Mike one of the girls approached the chest and put both hands on it, both of the girl's hands glowed for a few seconds indicating that she had used a spell, when the girl's hands finished shining, she opened the chest and began to count all the coins, in just one minute the girl counted all the coins resulting in the exact hundred coins.

Well, apparently everything is in order, we can continue our business-Mike.

Again Mike made a sign to the other girl who brought two scrolls, ink and a pen, as we had done previously we signed the two scrolls and after doing so Mike took both scrolls, activated his bondage magic and in just seconds the contract de Noel was completely eliminated.

All set, nice doing business with you, Mr. Beller-Mike.

Likewise, Mr. Brin-Kasumi.

The moment I said that, Mike stopped in his tracks and stared at me.

Nobody in this city knows my third last name, I'd like to know how you knew that's my third last name-Mike.

I can see it, just as that girl used magic to know if my coins had something strange, I can see all the information of the people, I looked at your information out of curiosity and the truth is I never imagined that I would meet a slave trader with a good heart, and to think that these two girls are sisters that you rescued a long time ago, to be honest I was thinking of returning to your place in a while and erasing it from the map, but change your mind, continue as you are and you will not have problems in your life, I dismissal-Kasumi.

With a gesture of goodbye I got up and started to walk towards the exit, but before leaving I stopped.

We are from the same side, brother, I also detest slavery in innocents, in your information I knew that you have done quite good things, worthy of a storybook hero-Kasumi.

I popped a small bag into my hand and tossed it to Mike who easily caught it.

Use that to continue your good work, see you in the future-Kasumi.

Without more to say I left the premises leaving behind a very confused Mike, after leaving the premises I began to walk with Noel to the meeting point, with a few minutes of walking without stopping we reached the meeting point, the only thing missing was wait for the girls to arrive, while waiting for the girls I started talking to Noel who was acting quite quiet, he only answered me with simple "yes" or a "maybe", after asking some trivial things I asked Noel directly that I had.

If you have something to say, say it, if it is a problem, I will help you, please I ask you not to be reserved with me-Kasumi.

Noel seemed surprised by my words.

It's just that that place brings back very bad memories, the truth is I'm still afraid, sometimes while I sleep I have nightmares about when I was a slave, I wish I could forget all those memories-Noel.

From the way Noel spoke it seemed that she was about to cry, I approached Noel slowly and hugged her in a very careful way.

That is in the past, you do not have to worry about it, I will take care of protecting you and if I am not there the girls will help you, remember that you are no longer alone, now you have people who will help you with any problem you face-Kasumi.

I slowly rubbed Noel's head for several minutes until she managed to calm down, with Noel calm she stared into her eyes without saying anything.

Could you kiss me?-Noel.

If I had been drinking something I would have spit it out completely upon hearing Noel's words, it was a pretty honest question on his part, but since it was the atmosphere was perfect for a kiss, I put my hand on Noel's cheek and slowly approached him. She who closed her eyes, just like she closed my eyes when I was only millimeters from her lips, again I felt Noel's charming lips, the feeling was so incredible that the kiss was already lasting longer than I thought, even us We separated for a few seconds to look at each other, but again we continued with our kissing session, as there were not many people around us, it did not feel very uncomfortable and that is why I did not want to be alert around me, I just raised a barrier to not worry about anything, the problem was that when I separated for the sixth time from Noel I noticed the girls just a few meters from the two of us, they were obviously staring at us and I really had no idea how long they had d e being watching, in a very uncomfortable way I approached Noel's ear, which she thought wrong and she just got carried away.

The girls are looking at us-Kasumi.

With those simple words Noel separated from me a little and turned to the girls who had a serious face, he was going to speak, but before doing so I noticed that Dina and Liz were not there.

If you ask about Dina and Liz, they both went home on unfinished business and it's better than they left-Arisa.

Arisa's words sounded very serious and her face showed that she was not happy at all, as everything was developing things were going to get out of control at any moment, the truth was I did not want the girls to get angry, but at this point I no longer it could be avoided.

Let's go to the mansion-Shiro.

Like Arisa, Shiro spoke in a serious way, without opposing Shiro's words we started walking towards the mansion, due to the tension of the moment I decided to go after the girls with Noel by my side, it goes without saying that Noel I was very worried about everything that was happening.

After walking for several minutes you arrive at the mansion where several of the employees who always welcomed us only stepped aside when they noticed that the girls were not in the mood, even my mother stepped aside when we met her, In our room the girls sat on the bed while Noel and I sat on one of the furniture in front of the bed, the tension in the air was so strong that no one dared to say a word, just as a precaution I raised one barrier around us that will not let out the noise.

Time ran its course and as more passed I noticed that the expression of the girls changed from seriousness to embarrassment and as time passed they could no longer even look at my face, I sighed deeply and spoke to break the ice.

From your expressions I assume you want to ask something, as I have told you many times, do not remain silent, if you have something to say say it no matter what-Kasumi.

During the time we had been traveling together, similar situations had already happened, that's why I always told the girls to talk every time they had a different thought than what I proposed, apart from that many relationships were also ruined by the lack of communication; at my words Yui stood up.

I'll be direct, I'm upset because… you only kiss Noel… and not me-Yui.

Although she sounded serious, Yui was very embarrassed by the words she had said, with her words spoken from her Yui returned to sit down as she looked away, followed by Yui, Arisa and Shiro also stood up at the same time.

I think the same too-Arisa.

Me too-Shiro.

With a few simple words said the girls returned to sit down, honestly I felt very relieved to hear the words of the girls, I couldn't help but smile internally.

For a moment I thought they were upset, but if that is what they think I am relieved, on the other hand, I remember telling them that if they wanted something from me that they did not hesitate to ask for it, but I remind them that asking for that kind of thing would literally be asking me to be your partner, therefore, I ask you all, would you agree that I be your partner? that will include Dina and Liz, even knowing that, do you agree? -Kasumi.

I just stopped talking and the girls turned to me at the same time and responded.

Yes-All.
