"Finally, I'm home!" Mike stepped out of the vehicle and into the gate, sighing. He unlocks the door and exclaims, "Welcome Home!"
Jenny, Lauren, Olive, Sunny, and his mother all yelled as he walked inside the home. For a brief moment, Mike was struck by lightning. He just returned to reality when Jenny leaped into his embrace.
"Thank you for your kind welcome!" Mike pats her head and nods in front of the others.
"Well, you must have a lot to say. I'll make tea for everyone." Elizabeth walked away with a lovely grin on her face.
"Thank you, Mom!" Mike smiled as he moved into the main room, Jenny in his arms.
"Hey, that's not right. I'd like to be hugged as well." Lauren yelled as she hurried to his embrace after watching Jenny holding him contentedly for a long time.
"No, remember, it's my turn. He has returned home. As a result, I should be the one to hold him first." Jenny's cheeks blew out as she tightened her grip on him. She cocked her head towards Lauren and stuck out her tongue in a nice way.
"Hey, I still haven't accepted you as the first mistress. So you don't always come in first. Let........ go of him! I want to hug him as well." Lauren approached his left side and attempted to pull Jenny.
"You know, I have another side as well." Mike sighed as Jenny's nails pricked him. Fortunately, she couldn't pierce his copper-colored skin with just her nails.
"Hehe!" Lauren snickered and dashed to his right side upon hearing her. She also clings to him and pokes Jenny with her tongue.
"Humph!" Jenny snorted and turned away, attempting to penetrate his flesh with her nails. Unfortunately, without her ability energy, it would be impossible.
"Master, I, too, would want a hug." Sunny also murmured as she reached out to Mike. Jenny and Lauren exchanged lethal eyes when they heard her comments. Sunny had chills down her spine and didn't dare to glance up.
"Come on guys, remember I'm going to spend the entire night with you all? There's no need for you to cling to me like this." After hearing her plea, Mike sighed. He could have asked her to climb in his back, but then he'd have to let Olive climb in front of him.
He didn't want to stay that way.
"Alright!" Jenny and Lauren both sighed at the same time, but only Jenny left his body. When she noticed Lauren still clinging to his body, she said, "Hey, why are you still clinging to him like a gorilla?"
"Who are you dialing, the gorilla?" Lauren yelled in response to Jenny's attack. She then placed her head on his shoulder and muttered, "You got more time, and I'd like to stay as well."
"You!!!!" Jenny tightened her fist as she noticed Lauren's determination. Despite the fact that she was aware that Mike adored her more than Lauren. But, in her opinion, there is no such thing as measuring love. In the danger, he may decide to save her first, but even then, she is unsure whether he will absolutely save her first.
Because Mike adores all of the women in his harem. Despite the fact that he appears to be more preoccupied with one and another, she thought it to be a distinguishing feature of him.
He is unconcerned about someone knowing they are prepared to confront it. However, he displays concern to others because he is unsure whether she will be able to face it or not. When she discussed everything during the tournament arc with Olive, she verified her guess.
And now she sees Lauren as a formidable foe because if Mike loves everyone equally, she must show her worth in his harem on her own. Previously, she was unconcerned about others.
She is aware that they pose no danger to her. Lauren, though, is. Especially since she is Mike's childhood pal. She has never regarded anyone else as an adversary including scarlet. Because she knew Mike was becoming stronger not only physically, but also mentally.
Lauren feels the same way; she does not recognize Jenny as the first mistress. Because she adores Mike in equal measure. And she is willing to give up her arrogance of brilliance for Mike's sake. But she will never be the first mistress, not just due to a lack of talent, but also due to a lack of something else.
Mike grumbled at their newfound rivalry. He couldn't understand why Jenny was so envious, especially when she was the one who forced him to fuck ladies all hours of the day and night. He was only able to sit on the couch. But then the door behind him swung open.
Lucas walks out, his face expressionless as usual. Mike notices him but remains silent for a moment. Lauren lets go of Mike as they both move in front of each other. Jenny smirks as she notices this and looks at Lauren.
Bam!
Standing in front of each other, they didn't move for few seconds. After that, they both clapped their hands, banged their fists, and hugged each other.
"Man! I'm taken aback by your change. You used to hug me excitedly if you hadn't seen me in more than a week." Mike hushed, a pleasant smile on his face.
"And you used to be terrified if I didn't laugh," Lucas muttered, but his expression remained unchanged.
"Well, you used to be a complete moron," Mike replied with a smile.
"No, you used to be a complete moron," Lucas responded.
"No, you used to be a complete moron." Mike's smile fades as he speaks in hushed tones.
"No, you used to be a complete moron," Lucas responds.
"Of course not! I had the intelligence equal to an elephant." Mike spoke with a proud expression on his face.
"Elephants aren't technically intelligent. They simply have long-term memories." Lucas responded.
"But, won't you be smart if you recall everything you read and ace your exams?" Mike inquired, a sly grin on his face.
"Now that you've brought it up. This appears to be the case." Lucas finally pulls away from his embrace and rests his hand on his chin, deep in thought. Lucas clicks his finger and speaks while elevating his head, "If you are as smart as an elephant, then I am as smart as a dolphin."
Mike's expression completely changed when he heard his remarks. But it all changed when that smile reappeared on his face: "If you're as brilliant as a dolphin, I'm as smart as a chimpanzee."
"I agree with half of your statement. You do resemble a chimpanzee. However, if we compare intelligence, I will be insulting the chimpanzee race." Lucas nods and responds with a cheeky look on his face.
"Hey!" They began brawling shortly after that until Elizabeth arrived with the tea. Their brawl came to a halt as they grabbed a cup of tea and began a heated discussion. He then spent the rest of the day talking about the competition.
Sunny, Lauren, and Jenny broke into the room at night. When Olive attempted to enter, they kicked her out, claiming that she had had enough of his dick. It was now their turn. They sat and waited.
One hour, two hours, three hours have passed, but Mike has not arrived.
Lauren finally went out to check on Lucas's room. Mike, on the other hand, was not present. Then she became suspicious and entered Elizabeth's room.
"Shhhh!" When Lauren entered the room, Elizabeth motioned for her to be silent. She was perched on the edge of the bed. Mike was soundly dozing on her lap.
"Hush!" Lauren sighed and exited the room when she noticed this. She realized it would be a bad idea to wake him awake. And, seeing Mike sleep so soundly, she couldn't bear the thought of waking him up.
Inside the room, Elizabeth fondles his hair with compassion in her eyes, recalling what Mike said a few hours previously.
After dinner,
Elizabeth went back to her room because her daughters-in-law could do the dishes. Mike followed her as well. Mike felt a little conflicted within. He wanted to ask, but he felt it wasn't the right time.
"What happened? Isn't it true that you're not going to spend time with your lovers?" When Elizabeth noticed Mike following her, she was perplexed.
"Can I sleep in your lap today, Mom?" Mike talked with a look of internal turmoil and sadness in his eyes.
"Shouldn't you sleep on the lap of your lover?" Elizabeth's demeanor changed as she noticed the sadness in his eyes, but she continued to chuckle.
"Mom, I........ Okay!" Mike felt he couldn't ask her this way. He became even more conflicted and made the decision to leave.
"You certainly can! But not every day, okay? Remember, I also need to sleep?" After observing his look, Elizabeth sighed and spoke.
"Really?" His mood transformed in an instant, and his smile shone like a holy light across his face.
After that, Mike rests his head on her lap and eventually closes his eyes as Elizabeth strokes his hair.
Currently,
Elizabeth continued to stroke his hair, thinking, 'Did you find out?' Otherwise, why would you be so tense? That thing must have finally told you. Well, I'd want to explain why. But first, I need to ask him. Don't worry, even if he refuses, I will force him.'
'Just a bit longer, just a little longer!'
