Chapter 69: A Strange Story 2
(Perspective Saeko)
"Will you marry me?"
Luis looked at us and then smiled. - "I can't tell you the situation without them being my wives -"
I interrupted Luis. - "I agree"
Why hesitate? Since I gave him my sword and my life there was no other way for me, even if I had been only a lover I would be fine with that, my duty is to be the sword of my master and if my master is also my husband then I should only be even more dedicated.
"Mou Saeko-chan is not fair, she wanted to be the first to accept!" - Shizuka made me a pout of anger to which I could only smile as an apology.
"I also accept, take care of me from now on sweetheart ~ Should we start our honeymoon right now?" - Sayo smiled like a seductive woman.
In the last days that I have known her, I can say that, although she likes to joke with people, her desire to be with Luis is true.
"Mmmm although it is an important decision I have no problem accepting, I am grateful for saving us and well ... I have no experience in relationships so take care of me" - Aki looked like a shy girl despite being an adult woman.
"Aki-chan joined yey!" - Shizuka hugged Aki.
Shizuka, Aki, and Nao became so close that they seem like sisters and even their temperaments are similar.
I became friends with Mikoto and I am starting to train with Yuko since she was a disciple of my grandfather so we know each other a little. Ñøv€l--ß1n hosted the premiere release of this chapter.
"I ... It is something difficult to answer" - Yuko doubted, it is a decision that cannot be made easily.
"It's okay if you want to think about it, I know it's very sudden, but I want you to understand that I can't tell the most important part unless it's my wives" - Luis sighed.
I only looked at Mikoto who was still like a statue, but knowing her she will agree to marry when her mind works again.
"..." - Yuko stared at Luis, after a while, she let out a sigh. - "Well you can see it as my thanks for saving Sayo, I accept"
"How romantic" - Luis smiled wryly.
"I owe you a date, use it to convince me that I'm not making a bad decision" - Yuko smiled defiantly.
"Oh, of course, I'll convince you" - Luis's smile turned provocative.
"Are they going to fight or are they going to have sex? Leave the hints and tell us the rest of the story "- Sayo rolled her eyes when she saw the 'confrontation '.
"Ahem, good, but first have a gift" - Luis raised his hand, and there appeared 5 small gift boxes.
I went over to take a box, Luis took the middlebox and gave it to me. - "This is for you"
Even though I'm trying to stay calm I felt like my heart was beating so hard it could explode.
I never considered marriage, because of my psychopathic tendencies and how much I enjoy hurting others I thought that I could never find someone who would accept me and even less love me.
Luis did not reject my violent impulses and even helped me polish my killer instinct to improve my sword technique.
I think I would have fallen in love with any strong man who was willing to accept me because of how lonely I felt, but Luis not only accepted me, he understands me, and instead of making me change he has helped me find a suitable path for me and more importantly, he makes me feel like I belong to a family.
I looked at the little box, it was so light that I didn't feel any weight, but it felt like the most valuable object in the world.
I opened the box and what I saw was a silver ring, it was beautiful and shiny, it had no exaggerated decorations, but I liked that more, I prefer the utility to the appearance, but even so I could not deny that it was the most beautiful ring I have seen.
I took the ring out of the box, my hands were shaking and I almost dropped it.
"Let me do it" - Luis spoke to me with a voice so warm that it tickled my heart.
I extended my right hand with the ring, Luis took the ring and put it on my ring finger, then he brought my hand to his lips and gave me a little kiss. - "Thanks for being with me Saeko"
"Nn" - I could only nod, my words did not come out and tears came out of my eyes. I couldn't stop crying, I felt happy, I felt that this moment was the happiest of my life.
"My turn, my turn!" - Shizuka approached to take the ring from him.
I retreated to the side to make room for the other women, although this may be a strange marriage scene I did not care, I did not even consider this as just an engagement proposal and in my heart, I was already Luis's wife.
I stared at the ring on my hand and started stroking it as a smile formed on my face.
"Mikoto, is not that simple, although I don't want to, I need to increase my harem because while I was in a coma that idiot you're walking on told me something worrisome" - Luis ignored Navi's laugh.
Mikoto stopped stepping on the fly when he saw Luis's serious expression.
"Although I do not fully understand my condition, I can only tell you something, I have two years to live" - Luis said something that almost stopped my heart.
"If this is a joke, it's not funny ..." - I had a hard time letting out my words, I hoped it was a joke, but seeing Luis's expression I knew it was true.
"Hey Listen! More specifically, you have 2 years, 4 months, 2 weeks, and 3 days left! " - Navi floated in front of us
"Before they panic, I have a solution" - Luis hastened to speak when he saw that our expressions were crumbling.
"My problem is something related to a curse on my soul that I received in my past life or something like that, that's why even though Aki can tell that there is something wrong with me she can't figure out what it is"
"I need to travel to other worlds to get a cure and to survive those worlds I need to increase my harem to gain more power since my system is the source of most of my abilities like black blood or blue energy that Sayo obtained when I gave my heart"- Luis explained quickly and we were silent.
The room was completely silent for several minutes until Navi spoke. - "Hey Listen! I'm bored, bring my friend so that they know it! "
I have to strengthen myself to be able to cut that damn fly.
Luis sighed. - "I present to you my other partner, his name is Madness, he was born of black blood"
A wound appeared on Luis's arm and black blood came out, but instead of spilling it began to take the form of a small animal similar to a stuffed dog.
"Woof" - The little animal raised its paw to greet us.
"It's cute" - Shizuka approached and began to stroke the dog's head making it purr.
Purring dog?
"Is it purring?" - I asked in confusion.
"He knows I like cats and dogs so he wants to be a bit of both, but his appearance can only become that of a dog" - Luis looked tiredly, it seems that he was in an annoying situation while he was in a coma.
"This is a bit strange, but in the chaotic world we live in, anything can happen" - Mikoto sighed. - "Luis, I'm upset, it bothers me that despite having me with you you are still looking for more women, it bothers me that women are looking for you and many are more attractive than me, it bothers me that you will continue looking for women not only in this world but also in others ... "
Mikoto's eyes were watery as he clenched his fists. - "But what bothers me the most is that your life is in danger and I can't help you. Tell me, am I so useless that I can't save you? "
Mikoto started crying. Her words made my chest ache.
Luis has not only shown me a way to live, he gave me a goal in life, but now that his life is in danger I cannot help him ...
I am useless.
I can't protect who I love.
"This is just a setback that we will overcome together, I did not ask you to marry me just to tell you my secrets, it is because I love you and I want to share my life with you" - Luis hugged us.
I clung to his embrace and cried, I want to save him, but I don't know how to do it.
Shizuka, Sayo, and Aki joined in the hug, even Yuko joined in.
We hugged each other to convey our feelings, to show Luis that he was not alone and we would do our best to help him.
At this moment, all of our hearts were united.
"Hey Listen! If they want to help him, they just have to bring him more women! More women mean more power! The way of the King of Harem is the answer! " - Navi ruined our sentimental moment, I want to kill that damn thing.
"Will increasing the harem save him?" - Mikoto's voice sounded hoarse from crying.
"Yes! But they have to be beautiful as a Harem King must have standards! " - Navi was flying over us.
Mikoto looked at Luis with a seriousness that was intimidating. - "I hate the idea that you have more women, but I hate the idea of losing you more ... I will help you in this stupidity because I love you and I don't want to lose you"
True, Luis said that he has a system that strengthens him by getting women. If you have 2 years to live, we should only gather as many women as possible.
Luis couldn't answer because I kissed him hard.
No matter what I have to do, I'm going to save him, at any cost.
