It wasn’t explicitly stated that I couldn’t teleport to the Divine Realm, but it made Creator God-sama a bit angry, apparently.

Because of that, he put a condition on Seira’s resignation as the Saintess.

“I can’t just let a monster who arbitrarily teleports to the Divine Realm even without being summoned go unchecked. Seira, can you listen to a request of mine?”

It seemed like he wanted Seira to monitor me.

I didn’t have any intention of refusing such a beautiful woman as Seira from joining my family.

The problem would be Seira’s opinion on the matter.

I was the Guardian Hero, and I had saved her before as Haruto. Haruto stayed for a while at the Holy City during that time, and Seira would always come to the inn he was staying to play, so they became good friends.

When Haruto and Tina were about to leave the Holy City, Seira cried and implored that she would come with them.

However, because she failed to hand the position to the next saintess, Seira had to remain in the Holy City, in the end.

The person she got along well was Haruto, and that person was me.

My appearance had changed after transmigrating, so I wasn’t sure whether Seira would still think about me the same way she did at that time.

Well, I did save her twice as Halt, and I even listened to her request and saved Elmia.

I wasn’t sure whether she liked me, but I guess she probably didn’t hate me.

If possible, I also wanted her to join my family, but if it was because of Creator God-sama’s request — I felt differently about that.

If she wanted to give up being a Saintess and be free, then I wanted her to live her life as she wanted.

“The monster that Creator God-sama is referring to — must be Halt-sama, is that true?”

“Hm.”

“…I understand.”

Seira drew closer until she stood right beside me.

“If Halt-sama is willing, I want to become your bride.”

She gazed into my eyes while saying those words.

“Seira, I’m glad that you want to become part of my wife. But… is that really okay? You’ve done your best for two hundred years, and you’re finally free from your job as the Saintess. You can live your life freely from now on, you know.”

Creator God-sama was listening, and yet I was spouting words that went against his will.

But then, Seira had been doing all she could, all alone, for such a long time. I already knew how hard she worked, because I had seen it a hundred years ago.

If Seira didn’t really wish to be tied to me, then I would request Creator God-sama to assign another person to monitor me, and maybe he could also put a restriction or fetter on me if he wanted, but —

“If I can live my life freely, then I want to spend it beside Halt-sama for all time. I had yearned for the Guardian Hero all this time.”

“…Right, I am indeed that Guardian Hero. But right now, my face already changed after transmigrating, and —”

“Even if your appearance changed, Haruto-sama is still Halt-sama. Besides, I do think Halt-sama’s current blue eyes are lovely.”

Seira hugged me.

“Halt-sama said that you’d be glad if I would become your wife — right? In that case, if I so wish, you will allow me to become part of the Ernol family, right?”

She asked with puppy eyes, and I might give in and say “Yeah” at this point.

I decided to look at Tina first.

She was smiling.

Everyone gave me the go signal.

All the other members of my family were also smiling.

It seemed that there was no problems even if Seira became part of the House of Ernol.

“Yeah. Seira, from now on, please take care of —”

“Wait!”

Elmia suddenly yelled.

“I-I’m Seira’s knight! As her knight, I need to see whether you bastard deserves to be with Seira.”

She drew her sword while saying those, and she pointed it to me.

“…You’re telling me to fight with you?”

“Yeah!”

*Erm…this is Creator God-sama’s Great Shrine, you know?

Moreover, the Creator God is watching over this.

Is it really fine?*

Just when I thought about those things —

**

“I approve. Seems fun. You can do it to your heart’s content.”**

Creator God-sama gave his permission.

I had to do this, huh.

“Okay, then. If I win, Seira’s mine.”

“Yeah, if you did win. If I lose, ahm, that’s, er…I-I also want to become your, the bastard’s, wife!”

“Huh?”

And why did it have to be that way?

“Y-you…don’t want me?”

Elmia looked like she was on the verge of tears when I froze.

“Yeah, I’m already a mature woman, and I’m not even as pretty as Seira, I’m not even as beautiful as Tina — “

“T-that’s not true.”

You are a super attractive woman!

“But —”

$^#@, what should I do!?

Seira whispered to my ear.

“Elmia wants to marry the same person that will become my spouse. However, she’s not honest, so she can’t say it. If Halt-sama is willing, can you take Elmia as your wife?”

“That’s —”

“If you win against Elmia, she can be honest, too. I’m sure that if it’s Halt-sama, you can win against her without injuring her, right?”

I see…

So basically, she’s telling me to take Elmia too, because she and Seira come as a set.

I understand!!

“Alright, if I win against Elmia, then you have to become my bride with Seira.”

“Y-yes!”

Yes — hey, you.

You don’t want to win, don’t you!

Well, I guess it’s fine.

“Ready?”

I donned my magical suit, then took my stance.

“I’m fine whenever, but…You bastard, won’t you use your sword?”

Elmia was surprised that I didn’t pick up any weapon.

“There’s no way I’m going to point a sword to a woman who’ll become my wife.”

“Wha!? I-I won’t be tricked with those words!!”

Elmia’s face was beet red.

The tip of her sword obviously shook.

The effect was tremendous, it seemed.

“Also, instead of “You bastard” —”

I charged towards Elmia with all the speed I could muster.

The only people who could see me move must be Tina and Ryuushin, I guess.

Elmia was shocked when I suddenly appeared before her eyes.

I aimed at her neck, my hand formed to do a karate chop —

My hand stopped right before it touched her neck.

A few strands of Elmia’s hair had been cut because of the force.

“Call me ‘Halt’.”

Elmia wordlessly slumped to the floor.

Seemed like I intimidated her too much.

“My win, it’s okay, right?”

Elmia silently nodded her head several times when I asked her.

“So, you’re Elmia Ernol from now on. Please take care of me, okay.”

I helped her up while saying that.

“P-please treat me well.”

“Yup!”

“I have ascertained it with my own eyes. I, the Creator of this world, recognize the marriage between Halt, Seira and also Elmia. And for these three, my blessing —”

Whoa! The Creator God-sama is standing as our witness!?

I-it turned into something amazing….

Just when I was thinking about that —

“T-that’s unfair. I also want Creator God-sama to acknowledge my marriage with Halt!” (Ryuka)

“Me, me too, meow!” (Merdie)

“I will also marry Halt—” (Hakua)

“We also want a blessing!” (Mai and Mei)

“M-me too —” (Luna)

“Leaffa, you’re already married to Halt. That’s why we should be prioritized.” (Youko)

“No way…” (Leaffa)

“Youko, this and that are two different matters. I also want Creator God-sama to bless my marriage with Halt-sama.” (Tina)

Tina also wanted it, apparently.

Yeah, she’s right. I also wanted it that way.

“Creator God-sama, can you please bless my marriage with all of them?”

“Alright. Since we’re here, let me bless everyone together.”

“T-thank you very much!”

“I will release a bit of power. Outsiders, please leave.”

“Eh, wait, why —”

Ryuushin suddenly disappeared from that spot.

He had been forcefully teleported, it seemed.

By the way, Ysha was still here.

She was the next Saintess, so maybe that’s why?

Poor Ryuushin.

“Alright, here we go. Any one here who opposes the marriage with Halt? If there is, then hurry up and leave.”

I looked at everyone’s faces.

No one wanted to leave.

“Alright, looking good. Then —”

Gentle mana drifted all around us.

It would purify the heart when touched, apparently.

“I, the Creator of the world, hereby declare. From this day forward, Halt Ernol and Tina, Leaffa, Luna, Youko, Mai, Mei, Merdie, Hakua, Ryuka, Seira and Elmia will be bound with a vow. Their ties will never be defiled by any other person at any time. I stand as their witness, and I bestow my blessing upon them.”

Creator God-sama’s statue shone.

The entire interior of the Great Shine was filled with light.
