Chapter 1493: How cute...
Haru looked around and couldn't help but feel nostalgic since it had been 100++ chapters that he was in another world so when he returned back, he really missed everything.
"So this is your home, dear?" Raikou asked curiously. Based on her observation, she could tell that Haru's house should have a traditional Japanese design.
"No, this is my shrine."
"...You have a shrine?"
Raikou looked at Haru with a curious expression. She had been told before that her dear was very rich, but he didn't tell her what kind of business he did in his world. She was wondering whether he was a priest since during her time a priest was very rich, considering there were many people that gave them tributes, offerings, sponsors, donors, etc.
Raikou knew as long as someone's temple or shrine was popular, then the owner of that temple or shrine would be very rich.
Raikou was thinking about Haru's business, but then her hair was caressed and she heard him call her.
"Raikou."
"What's wrong, dear?" Raikou looked at Haru with a smile.
"I have told you before that I have a lot of women in this world, right?" Haru said.
"...."
Raikou looked at Haru with an expressionless expression and asked, "How many?"
Haru felt a bit uncomfortable, but he answered honestly. "Nine." He had nine women in this world, but he knew that the number would increase further in the future.
"..."
Raikou nodded and her expression didn't change much. "It isn't as much as I have imagined."
"...It isn't that much?" Haru looked at Raikou in confusion.
"In my time, it is normal for those people with authority and money to have a lot of women, some of them even have a hundred or so," Raikou said with a serious expression.
Haru nodded and also understood that in the past, it was very hard for someone to eat, and being a concubine or mistress of someone rich or with authority was the best way for a woman to survive in hard times.
Even in this era, there were still a lot of women that decided to be concubines or mistresses because of economic trouble.
"But I hope you don't play with them and treat them with care," Raikou said.
"Don't worry." Haru caressed Raikou's face and said, "I know that I have wronged you, but thank you for staying with me."
"Dear..."
Raikou's eyes turned misty and she kept staring at Haru.
"Raikou..."
Both of them stared at each other's eyes and were about to start their first duel in this world, however...
"Haru, where are you?!"
Both of them stopped when they heard a scared voice from another room.
"This....?"
Raikou looked at Haru with a blank expression.
"....."
Haru took a deep breath and quickly explained what had happened. He went on the quest after he had taken Eli's first time after all and he was sure that she had just woken up and became panicked when she didn't see him beside her.
"...I understand, go to her, and I will wait for you here," Raikou said, but her mood was clearly very bad.
"Sorry."
Haru said for the last time before he went to Eli since he knew that she needed him beside her.
Looking at Haru's back, Raikou stood up slowly to peek at what he was about to do.
Eli was full of happiness when she had become one with her boyfriend, however, when she woke up, she was at a loss when she didn't see him beside her. She was scared and quickly shouted his name since she was afraid that he would leave her.
"What's wrong, Eli?"
Eli quickly turned her head and saw him enter the room. "Where have you been?"
Haru put on a gentle expression and walked toward her.
"Sorry, I went to the toilet before." He hugged her and caressed her head, trying to calm her down.
Eli also hugged Haru and didn't let him go. She was at a sensitive time and she wanted him to be with her all the time.
"Why not sleep again? I am sure that you're still very tired."
"Then let's sleep together," Eli said with a spoiled tone. Unlike her usual cool and strict appearance, at this moment, she showed a spoiled and very cute expression.
"Good, let's sleep together."
Haru didn't really mind and laid on the bed once again beside Eli. He really wanted to pamper her at this moment since she was very cute and she was at her most vulnerable moment after she lost her first time yesterday.
Eli smiled and used Haru's arm as a pillow, then hugged him, before she hissed in pain.
"Are you alright?"
"It's your fault!"
Eli blushed when she thought about what had happened yesterday. She had to admit that it was very good and she had never thought that she would be so wild last night, however, in the early morning, she was very sore and she couldn't walk properly.
Eli knew very well that all of that was caused by the bad man in front of him.
"Yes, yes. It is my fault, forgive me alright?"
"Hmph!"
Eli hummed happily before she snuggled into his arms again.
"Don't leave me, alright?"
"Yes, I will stay with you today."
Eli showed a happy smile before she slept once again since she was very tired.
Haru caressed Eli's hair and felt very guilty at that moment. He then looked up and saw Raikou peeking through the gap of the sliding door. He wasn't sure why, but he could see a gloomy aura around her which made her scared for some reason. He could only smile wrily and showed an apologetic expression.
Raikou snorted, but she had prepared herself, knowing that her dear had a lot of women, and at the same time, she was wondering nine women that could make her dear fall in love.
In the early morning, all the members of the Muse gathered in front of the shrine as usual to do their morning exercise, however, there were two people that didn't come to the morning exercise.
"Where's Haru, nyaa?" Rin asked while looking around.
"It's also quite surprising that Eli is as late as Honoka," Umi said in wonder.
"What do you mean by that, Umi-chan!?" Honoka puffed her cheeks and felt upset when her friend said that she had always been late, even though it was true.
"Hmm... but don't you think that it is weird?" Nico suddenly said.
"What do you mean, Nico-chan?" Kotori asked, but then she glanced at Maki and Nozomi when she asked this question.
"I mean... don't you think that both Haru and Eli have some kind of secret?" Nico said mysteriously.
"What kind of secret?"
Everyone looked curiously at Nico.
"I mean that they're..."
When Nico was about to say something, her chest was rubbed by Nozomi.
"Nico-chan, it seems that your breasts have grown bigger." Nozomi showed a surprised expression while rubbing Nico-chan's breasts.
"NOZOMI!!!!"
Nico wanted to escape, but Nozomi's claws were more powerful than she had thought.
"Everyone, let's start training, I have received a message from the two of them that they have some matters with their family so they can't join the training," Maki said.
Hearing Maki's words, they nodded then didn't think too much. They quickly started their training, however, Nozomi and Maki looked at each other and nodded.
On the other hand, Kotori looked at Nozomi and Maki thoughtfully.
Kotori then looked at the rest members of Muse who did an exercise with an innocent and happy smile, and couldn't help but shake her head since they were too cute, right?
