42 Chapter 42

Currently, Haru was sitting on the metal boat, Suki was sitting next to him. After she had taken her clothes with her, Haru pointed his hand in the direction of the Earth Kingdom. The boat started moving at a high speed, enough for them not to sink.

While moving, Haru was thinking of the letter Bumi had sent him.

("Haru, you need to come immediately to Omashu. Hurry up.")

Haru prayed that nothing very bad happened.

But thinking again, if the worse had happened, Bumi wouldn't even be able to send him a letter.

Again, Bumi was the mad king. No one can tell what's in his head.

Thinking about Rune, Haru figured out that he is in front of another problem.

How is he going to tell Suki about her?

Luckily, this world has no feminists.

Even on Earth, They practised polygamy in old times.

On the other side, a man in this world doesn't need plenty of money to make it happen.

"Suki, by the way," Haru called.

"Yes." Suki nodded with a smile as she was staring at the sea.

Haru took a deep breath and said. "How far do you know about the history of Earth Kingdom."

"Oh, I know very much, from Chin's the conqueror era, following to the beginning of the hundred years war." Suki nodded. She turned to Haru and said. "Is there something you want to know about?"

"Yes," Haru said. "How do you feel about polygamy."

After thinking for a brief, Suki lowered her head and replied.

"It's normal. Most men die in war, which leaves the population unbalanced. If Monogamy is forced, many women would be widowed, and they would have to work to support themselves. As for the single ones, even if they had managed to provide for themselves, they would die single. But that's not the worse part. When they become old and unable to do a thing, no one will provide them, and thus, they would suffer in their last days." She replied. "Besides, it was for the strong and the rich. From a bigger perspective, polygamy benefits both men and women, well, as long as a man is capable."

To Haru, that sounded reasonable. Providing women security while having benefits.

"You are really educated, Suki." Haru put his hand on hers and held it tightly. "Good that you understand."

He never knew that he would find such an understanding goal. The action, which would sound cheap in his previous life, now became a noble purpose.

'Yes, I'm doing a great deed.' He thought to himself. 'I'm giving the world more of my children. They will make the Earth Kingdom great again.'

Staring at the expression on his face, Suki asked. "Seeing that you asked this, are you willing to start one? Or do you have one already?"

Haru nodded. "Before coming to Kyoshi island, and exactly at a base of the Fire nation that I conquered, I met a widow woman and her kid. Having lived with them for a week or so while I was constructing a wall, we got more close. Also, there is a girl from my village, things didn't develop much, but we did it once."

Suki's eyelids shook for a bit. She lowered her head, seeming to think of something.

Haru could tell from her heartbeat rate that she was going through an internal debate.

Seeing that she didn't attack him immediately after he had told her, he knew that she was considering it.

"Sound like a sad story. What was that widow doing in a base of the Fire Nation?" She asked, her expression showing sympathy.

"Poisoned because she is Earthbender," Haru replied.

"I see, I hope to meet her one day. It seems you have a big heart. But tell me first, who do you love most." Suki raised her eyebrow as she let her face closer to his, staring at him dead in the eyes.

Haru smiled and lied. "You."

To be honest, he loves everyone equally.

She gave him a small elbow to his ribs, and she said. "I'll test you."

She stretched her arms while standing up in the front of the boat. "Can you increase the speed?"

"Wanna enjoy the wind?"

"Yes!" she replied, excitement feeling her voice.

Appreciating that she changed the topic, Haru stood up behind her and spread his arms, before closing them on her skinny waist, hugging her closer to him and grinding his crotch against her butt.

As the speed of the boat increased, Suki closed her eyes.

-x-X-x-

As soon as they reached the Earth Kingdom, Haru stopped by the beach. He had made a very high leap, sending him into the sky. Looking left and right, he noticed a town covered in a wall. He sighed in relief. There were no troops of the Fire Nation there. As for the base he had defeated, it was still there, a flat grave for the firebenders.

When Haru landed on his feet, Suki, who was next to him, asked if they were going to meet Rune.

Haru replied that he must go to Omashu.

There is no time for them to waste, as something bad may happen.

Being the understanding girl she is, Suki nodded and said. "Right, you are very busy with wars. So, how are we going to Omashu, will it take days."

"Two days or less."

"Hold on, I know the maps of the Earth Kingdom, and it will take a week or so."

"Not with this." Haru tapped his foot on the ground. The next second, he was floating on Earth Board. Using this will consumes him, at this level, 200 Chi Points per minute. Haru's regeneration of his energy is 500. It meant that he can go for a long time.

When seeing him floating, Suki's eyes lit up. Haru started noticing that she loves dangerous movements. This girl sure has a lot of courage and doesn't have fears of high places. Haru wondered if she fears on her body from anything.

Making the earth board bigger a bit, Haru invited Suki.

"Stand behind me and hold me from my waist."

"Sounds sexy." She teased. She then looked at the boat. "Are you going to leave this behind?"

Not wanting to show his storage in front of her, in order not to provoke unnecessary questions, Haru decided to let it go.

He smiled at Suki. "I can always make more. We are in hurry."

"Sure." Suki jumped in her backpack on her back. She hugged Haru from behind.

Kissing his neck, she whispered. "Go."

"You are making it hard," Haru said when a pleasurable sensation came from his neck. Ignoring that feeling, Haru pointed with his head in the direction of Omashu. Since it was still morning, Haru didn't need a compass to determine the directions.

"Heehaw!" Suki yelled in enticement and held Haru's waist with more strength. Currently, they floated high in the sky, 10 meters in the air.

Using earthbending to fly was surely a very good idea. Only the most skilled earthbenders can do such a thing. But it seems most of them never thought of doing so. It's funny how skilled Earthbenders can make heavy walls fly, yet they never create vehicles or transfer ways for them to cross far distances, and Haru wasn't even thinking about the mailing system of Omashu.

While using his earthbending power, Haru was subconsciously thinking about what to do now that he got back.

Since Kyoshi had visited him, she had inspired him with a method to deal with Ozai and the firebenders before they gain an overpowered boost a year after the appearance of the avatar.

A year was plenty of time for Haru. He would have the time to go to Ba Sing Si, learn the hypnosis method, and then, he will head to the Fire Kingdom. He will manipulate Ozai instead of killing him. And after the Sozin's comet, Haru would find a way to conquer the Fire Nation, with the least deaths, and he will easily unite the Earth Kingdom.

Because of their speed, Haru didn't expect that they will reach Omashu in less than two days.

The only reason they took that time was that he considered that Suki needed sleep.

Also, sex.

And both were amazing. He and Suki had made love in the middle of their way. And it felt amazing. Suki had slept with a satisfied face, and Haru spent the night guarding her. After she had to wake up, he carried her and moved to Omashu.

Climbing the hill that Omashu was built on with his earthbending power, Haru appeared in front of the guards, Suki in his arms.

Suki started forward, quite sleepy. "Those are?" she asked Haru.

"The guards," Haru said.

As the guard stared at Haru's face, he gave a slight bow and said. "Crown Prince. You arrived quickly, the king wouldn't have expected that.

"Please, get in."

He and another earthbender turned the gate, a thick gate that only a skilled bender can move, and they opened it for Haru.

After putting Suki on her feet, he said. "Follow me, I'll find you a room to stay in."

"Mm…" Suki gave a slight nod and she walked along Haru.
