Book 7: Chapter 30: Battle for Defending the Holy City (3/4)

I teleported to the village of the dragonoids in order to get Ryuka and Ryuushin and take them back with me to the Holy City of Sanctum.

I pasted teleportation circles to everyone in my class for emergencies, so teleporting to where they were was just a piece of cake.

But, I was in a hurry, so I didnt think too deeply about it. Because of that, I ended up teleporting too close to where Ryuka was, and

There was a bit of a mix-up.

I ended up teleporting right before Ryuka, just when she was taking a bath.

It was a wide, open air bath.

Ryuka was right there, stark naked.

I froze.

Her face turned crimson.

She then attacked me with a white dragon tail covered in scales  

Ryuka tried to blast me the guy who abruptly trespassed inside the bath out of this place.

Well, it would have been better if I was indeed blown off.

However, my status was [Fixed], so Knock Back didnt have any effect on me.

I didnt avoid it nor did I guard against it, but unfortunately, it didnt have any damage or effect on me.

W-why!?

She probably hit me with all she got.

I didnt move an inch, so Ryuka was shocked.

Scales covered different areas of Ryukas body because she partly dragonized and manifested her tail.

I could finally somehow look at her directly  thanks to that. Well, it didnt change the fact that she was still in the nude, so it was kinda erotic.

Sorry, Ryuka! I dont have much time. Just follow me now, please!!

Even if you suddenly say that

The door of the bathroom opened with a bang.

Ryuka! Are yo okay!? What hap Halt?

Ryuushin rushed inside the bathroom.

Oh, so they are living together? 

So theyre really dating?

No, theres a possibility that they were already married

These thoughts filled my mind, when

Why do you have to come here!!!

Urkughh!!

Ryuka swung the tail that hit me, sending Ryuushin flying this time around.

Ryuushin shrieked pathetically while being blown away towards the house.

Oh, so its not that I became weak.

Erm, so you two were living together, huh. Ahmsorry.

If they were truly dating, or even married, then itd be understandable if Ryuushin wanted to punch the heck out of me for appearing so suddenly while Ryuka was bathing.

Well, even if he did punch me, I wont receive any damage. I felt a bit guilty.

Arent you misunderstanding something? Ryuushin and I are siblings.

Really?

Yes. Also, we also have a tradition; the Dragon God decreed that the Dragons Shrine Maiden can only show her body to her husband among the opposite gender, outside of the family.

Eh

I somehow felt like I did something terrible.

By the way, what will happen if you didnt keep that decree?

I will lose the power of the Dragons Shrine Maiden.

W-when will that be?

Its already lost, I thinkSee, [Resurrection] isnt working anymore.

Ryukas body had partly dragonized, and she was robust, having enough strength to blow Ryuushin away.

However, this was worrying.

Right now, the demon is attacking the Holy City. We have to mend the Crystal that activates the barrier protecting the Holy City! Is there any way we can restore the power of the Dragons Shrine Maiden?

I, is that true!? Eh, let me think I just have to marry the man who saw my body, and the power of the Dragons Shrine Maiden will return. In other words, I marry Halt

What?

Halt, do youdislike being tied to me?

Ryuka asked me with upturned eyes.

My conscience has been numbed a great deal since I came into this world.

I already have a few wives, but I couldnt make myself reject her.

Dislike I dont, but Ryuka, are you okay with that?

Actually, I am bound by law to give birth to a strong male as much as possible as the Dragons Shrine Maiden in the first place. Normally, Shrine maidens would marry the strongest man in the village, but that position currently belongs to Ryuushin.

As expected, they dont marry their siblings, apparently.

If the Dragons Shrine Maiden cant marry the strongest man in the village, she must go out into the world to seek a powerful man. Thats the reason why I entered Ifrus Academy of Magic, which stood at the pinnacle of this world, butwell, its you, Halt. Youre the strongest one among the people I met.

Ryuka drew closer to me.

You might think this is too abrupt, but I have been aiming at you all this time.

Ryuka said that, then she closed her eyes and puckered her lips.

So I just have to kiss her, is that it?

its fine, isnt it?

Leaffa will probably get mad that I got another wife arbitrarily. Tina probably wont complain, since she sleeps with me every single night.

Really, maybe its time that I remember how to do clone magic. 

I lightly kissed Ryukas lips.

Fufufu, with this, Im Ryuka Ernol from now on. Actually, it was slightly embarrassing introducing myself as Ryuka Vorgano. Ah, of course I love the entire family.

Is that so. So, did the powers of the Dragons Shrine Maiden return?

Let me check!

She said that, then she held her hand over the magical stone lying beside her.

This magical stone poured hot water into this open bath, but it had been broken when she hit Ryuushin.

It was instantly repaired thanks to Ryukas [Resurrection] spell.

Seems like its okay now. With this, I can support my dear husband immediately. Alright, lets hurry towards the Holy City!!

Ryuka deftly transformed the scales into something that was akin to clothes, so that they would cover her entire body. 

Her dragonization ability was far more superior than Ryuushin, it seemed. But

Ahm, how to say this, youre only covered with the scales, but youre still stark naked, right? Er if its possible, can you put on some clothes.

Ryuka became my wife, so of course I didnt want any other man to see her in the nude.

Ah, y-yes, youre right. Ill go change immediately! Halt, can you wake Ryuushin up? Hell be your brother-in-law, so lets make him work for my dear husband, too!!

Ryuuka rushed off towards the house.

Oh, yeah, I Ill become Ryuushins brother-in-law

–

T/N: You might think this is too abrupt, but I have been aiming at you all this time. 

I do, I actually think its abrupt, after all these chapters that didnt even have a single hintand the entire thing felt socasual? still, why am I not surprised. Makes sense, Ryukas ability is far too powerful to be given to any other male character. I think the only woman Halt really loved is Tina, though. Well, everyone in the harem is happy regardless, so welcome to the club, Ryuka! ? And Ryuushin, too, welcome to the family why do I get the feeling that hell become the henpecked lil brother-in-law lol XD

Heres a photo of the harem from Author-samas twitter page!
