Chapter 1874: I won't let you go
After their trip on the sea, everyone saw an island that slowly appeared in front of their eyes.
"Haru, is that the island?" Honoka asked excitedly. After staying in this place for a long time, she didn't feel nervous anymore, or rather she wanted to move around to see the scenery of the surrounding area more.
"Not that one. It's over there." Haru pointed his finger at his Lanai island and said, "It might be a bit hard to see, but it is there."
Nozomi looked in the direction of Haru's finger and asked, "What's so special about that island?"
"Well, the island owns a huge pineapple farm," Haru said.
"Pineapple farm!" Everyone was quite surprised when they heard it.
Haru then looked at Maya and Raikou and said, "You two can't eat the pineapple, alright?"
Raikou and Maya nodded since they knew that as a pregnant woman, they couldn't eat pineapple.
Some people might say that it was a myth, but the enzyme from the pineapple might cause a miscarriage. Even though there wasn't scientific research about it, it was better to be careful than sorry, right?
In truth, it wasn't his first time to come to his private island since he had come to this island several times by swimming, using his light magic, and teleporting by using Shambala.
'Teleport, huh?'
Haru had to admit that using a Shamabala as a means of transport was quite troublesome since if he lost it, then he wouldn't be able to teleport. Even though his speed was very fast, teleportation had its own charm, and it was better to be used as transportation since he didn't feel tired and his clothes wouldn't get dirty.
In addition to Shambala, he could also use "Gate," the magic that he learned in Shin Wolford's world.
'Well, I'll learn it soon.' Haru thought.
"Get ready. We're about to arrive," Haru said.
Everyone cheered and was excited. After all, they had been on the sea for a while, so it was quite normal for them to miss a land.
---
"It's land!"
"I miss the land, nyaa!"
"Ah, I really miss the land!"
Honoka, Rin, and Nico lay on the dock, ignoring the sun.
"It's a bit hot," Eli said. After all, she was someone from Russia, so she wasn't used to the hot temperature.
Haru then hugged Eli and slowed down the atom around them. "How is it?"
Eli was stunned and blushed, but when she was hugged, she was surprised when the temperature around her was slightly nice. "Why is it quite cold?"
"It's magic." Haru smiled and said, "Well, let's enter the resort first."
"OOHHHH!!!"
---
At the resort, Haru walked to the beach, staring at the sea absently. Everyone was still resting, after all, they had just walked out from the yacht, so here he was walking on the beach alone. He thought that he could use this island as a place to keep his treasure.
'Well, I should also buy land in various places in the future.'
While Haru was in deep thought, a voice interrupted him.
'Can I come out?'
Haru raised his eyebrow and asked, 'You want to come out?'
'Well, I want to see your private island after all.'
'Just don't use your poison, alright?'
'I know, I know, you don't need to remind me. You still have my video recording, right?'
'........' Haru.
'You're not worried that I'm going to upload it on the internet?'
'With your personality, I don't think you'll do that to your woman.'
'...You're my woman?'
'You have done a lot of things for me, and you don't want to be responsible for me?' Semiramis started to cry miserably.
Haru was speechless and asked, 'Is that alright with you?'
'Oh? Are you not going to ask me directly to become your woman? I've been with you for a long time, and I know that you'd like an older woman like me, right?'
Haru somehow could see a smug expression on Semiramis's face. He sighed and said, "Well, you can come out." He then summoned Semiramis out of the Ocean, and she appeared right beside him.
Semiramis took a deep breath and could smell the fresh air.
"So why do you want to get out?" Haru asked.
"Because I'm interested," Semiramis said while looking at Haru.
"Interested?" Haru looked at Semiramis curiously.
"Yes, I have seen your actions in two different worlds, but you have never asked for my help. With my help, you can control those two worlds faster, you know?" Semiramis said since, in truth, she really wanted to stay on Haru's side, especially when she saw him conquer one world after another.
Haru looked at Semiramis for a bit and felt slightly surprised, but then suddenly, his phone vibrated. He took his phone and decided to check it.
"What? Another quest?" Semiramis asked curiously.
"Yeah, it is another quest," Haru said with a sigh.
Semiramis smiled, then kissed Haru's cheek. "Well, I'll enter first. Tell me if you're ready." She then disappeared and entered the Ocen again.
"..." Haru looked at the quest and wondered how it appeared so soon. He then put his smartphone back in his pocket and heard someone call his name.
"Haru."
Haru turned his head and smiled. "Umi."
Umi looked at Haru with blush and walked toward him. "What are you doing?"
"Well, I'm just looking at the sea. It's my first time here, after all," Haru said.
"You have never been here?" Umi was dumbfounded and asked, "Then why did you buy this island?"
"It's a good island, isn't it? If we're married in the future, we can do it here," Haru said.
Umi nodded subconsciously, but then her face was red, and she quickly refuted. "Wh - Who will marry you?!"
Haru then extended his hand toward Umi.
Umi was dumbfounded, her face was red, but she timidly reached for his hand.
Haru smiled and said, "Let's walk on the beach together, Umi."
"Um." Umi nodded shyly.
"Didn't you say that you won't let your boyfriend hold your hand before you marry each other?" Haru asked teasingly.
"Bu - But you're not my boyfriend!" Umi refuted with a red face.
"..."
Haru felt that his sentence was a bit wrong, but well, he could solve this. "So am I special?"
"Do - Does it matter?!" Umi was very embarrassed at that moment.
"Of course, it is a matter." Haru stopped, looked at Umi with a sincere smile, and said, "I have confessed to you once, and you have rejected me, but my feeling hasn't changed since then."
"Haru..." Umi couldn't look away from Haru, looking at him with tears, feeling moved by his words.
Haru wiped away the tears on Umi's eyes and said, "We haven't married yet, but is it alright for me to kiss you?"
"Ki - Kiss?!" Umi was dumbfounded, her face was so red, but when she looked at his eyes, she nodded shyly.
Haru smiled, lifted her chin gently, then kissed her lips.
'Ah...'
Umi felt her lips touching against him, and she couldn't help but feel that it was so wonderful at the moment. 'Haru...'
They didn't kiss for a long time, nor did they use their tongue, and it was just for a moment, but it was so magical.
When their lips parted, Umi was still in a state of disbelief since she had allowed herself to be kissed, even though both of them hadn't married yet.
"How is it?" Haru asked.
"It - It's great..." Umi said shyly.
"So, can I kiss you more?" Haru asked with a smile.
"......" Umi looked at Haru with disbelief and understood how cheeky this guy was, but well, she didn't really hate it. "This is the last time, alright? I won't let you kiss me again!"
"Yes, yes, this is the last time," Haru said.
Umi wanted to say something again, but her lips were shut by his then she could only swallow her complaint and enjoyed her second kiss, though she had to admit that it felt so good, but...
"Don't use your tongue!"
Umi knew that at this moment she needed to hold on, or else she might lose more than her first kiss before they married each other since her boyfriend was more dangerous than she had thought!
