Horse riding has always been a favorite sport for wealthy people.
Many parents also often trained their children from childhood on horse riding since it would train their posture.
When one rode a horse, their posture would be corrected naturally, but for people who weren't used to it, their backs would ache, and their bodies would be uncomfortable.
Riding a horse was a new experience for them, and it was even more fun when they were together with their loved ones, so they were quite hooked.
Still, they had to pray for the price of their greediness since their backs ached and they couldn't move.
"Ouch! Ouch! My back!"
"Ah, that's the place. Shishio, massage me more."
"Unfair! I am the next one!"
"Be patient. I only have two hands."
Shishio was speechless, looking at Ayaka, Hina, and Hiratsuka, who lay on the sofa in a pathetic way. They weren't used to riding on horses, so naturally, their backs ached after they rode on the horse with him for so long.
While Hiratsuka's body was better than most people, she also couldn't fight against age.
The only one who was better was Roberta, and she even rode a horse on her own since it seemed she had an experience when she lived as a soldier in the past.
Shishio even gave Roberta a horse.
Frankly, the horse wasn't cheap. They were expensive.
The cheapest in his collection was around 500,000 dollars, and there was even one that cost millions.
If one asks, was it worth it?
Naturally, it was worth it.
It was like a sports car and the brand of the car.
The horse was like that, but unlike a car, a horse was focused on the breed.
Frankly, with his ability to control the horse and even breed it, he might have become an emperor if he had been reborn in the past. After all, a horse had always been important in war, and if he had the ability to control it, he could arm his army with a lot of horses.
Unlike in the current era, where everything was decided by a single weapon, in the past, the greater the number of their armies, the greater their chance to win.
When everyone was running on their feet, only his armies were running with horses.
One could imagine how the battle would become, right?
Anyway, leaving aside the fact he wasn't reborn to such an era, he gave a back-massage to his women now. They planned to visit the Hoshino Resort to watch a concert at night, but their backs were in trouble, so they returned to the villa first.
Fortunately, his massage skills were amazing, so they quickly became better. After they washed their bodies, did a quickie, and changed their clothes, they didn't hesitate to start their trip to the Hoshino Resort.
This resort was one of the businesses he got from the system.
It was a famous resort and could even be called the trademark of the Karuizawa.
This place was also beautiful since, at the entrance, it was planted with hundreds of elm trees, making them feel they were coming to the elf village.
There were many buildings around the resort, and they looked around curiously before they went to the waterfront terrace to rest and wait for the concert.
While he was speechless by their lost desire to walk around, he knew they weren't young anymore, and they were exhausted after the horse riding last time, so they wanted to rest more.
His massage skill was good, but their bodies wanted to be lazy, especially when they did a quickie before they left.
When they arrived, the waitress came and asked what they wanted to order.
Looking at the various menus, the women ordered a beer and some cocktails that they were curious about.
He also ordered a platter of snacks, such as french fries, nuggets, or something similar. Still, he didn't order alcohol like the rest and just ordered a soft drink.
While the waitress seemed curious about their group since many beautiful older women surrounded one young man, it wasn't her place to talk about this matter, and she left after she noted their order.
'A little brother, perhaps?'
The waitress thought and glanced at Shishio secretly since he was so handsome.
"The waitress is good," Hina suddenly said.
"Why?" He felt Hina's praise was strange.
"Well, she didn't ask about our relationship," Hina said with an awkward smile.
"Besides that church before, no one asks about our relationship, or rather they don't care at all."
When they were about to leave the church, the female cleric asked what their relationship was, considering she asked him to take a photo to become a model for the marriage venue. The female model for the wife was ready, but the male model for the husband wasn't ready, so she thought to ask Shishio to help.
After all, she thought he was free, and the female around him was his big sister or something.
Yet who would have thought that the four hugged him at the same time and told their relationship without hesitation before they left the stunned female cleric?
However, besides that female cleric, no one really asked them such a question.
There was a saying in this country that "a customer is a god," so naturally, no one dared to ask such a rude question. Those clerks who saw them only smiled and offered them what they wanted to buy. While some of them wondered what their relationship was, they had seen many things after they worked in the service industry, so even if they saw a couple with a mismatched age, they wouldn't be stunned or asked a rude question.
"That's true." Hina nodded but then pouted. "But you still remember the model of the church, right? She was so eager to be with you."
'What are you getting jealous of?'
He was speechless, considering he had been dating so many girls and women, but Hina only got jealous now. However, he didn't refute her and kissed her forehead gently. "But I refused, right?"
"Well..."
What could she say now?
She fell into his arms while watching the band on stage preparing their musical instruments.
While the rest wanted to join, they were a bit embarrassed to do it in this place since they were in public, so they could only do it sneakily.
They felt contented when they could spend their day with him.
However, he was in the middle of thinking about what he should do with them.
Marriage.
He felt this was something far away, especially when he was so young, but Hiratsuka, Hina, and Ayaka were different. They might not think about that matter when they were with him since they were happy.
However, when he thought about how he had taken Hina away from his previous boyfriend, how he took down Aki when he took Ayaka, and how Hiratsuka, who was almost in her 30...
He felt that he had to show some kind of responsibility or promise from his mouth. They had this kind of conversation at lunch earlier, and while they didn't press him, their decision might change along with the time. They might not ask him to marry them now, but sooner or later, they might ask such a question, considering how they would become older and older.
Getting old was the enemy of a woman.
Who wanted to become older? Especially when getting older would make you lose the beauty that you had before.
This was frightening.
While he had a way of making them maintain their youth, it needed time.
Still, what they were afraid of the most was the fact that they might lose the love of the man they loved when they became older.
The concert had started, and the sound of the saxophone, trumpet, trombone, piano, bass, drums, and guitar mixed together, creating a harmony of jazz. The sound of mellow, calm enhanced the beauty of the night sky even more.
In Karuizawa, the stars were bright.
It was possible to see everything in the sky.
The countless blinking dots in the sky seemed even more beautiful than any jewel in the world.
However, their companions were something that made everything seem even brighter and more beautiful.
Eating, laughing, drinking, and many other things. They had done all of them together in the past few days.
Soon, this trip would end, and without a doubt, their hearts were filled with happiness, feeling satisfied with this trip.
Yet he felt this was far from enough.
Well, human greed was something insatiable, so he knew it was impossible to satisfy all of them, but he hoped something would change between them. He was greedy, and naturally, he didn't want to let them go.
When the music stopped, the sound of nature seemed to intensify.
The sound of the water, forest, insect, and every living being in this town were heard before all of them vanished, swallowed by the gentle sound of the saxophone.
Everyone enjoyed this very moment.
Hiratsuka, Roberta, Hina, and Ayaka didn't let go of Shishio's hands and huddled together to be with him.
"Hey."
"Hmm?"
They looked at him at the same time.
"I know that I don't have any evidence or proof. My words might seem like a child rambling, considering my age and the impossibility of what I am going to do, but..."
He looked straight at his women and said calmly, full of love, "I will marry all of you. I am not sure when, and in the worst case, we will try to move to a country that allows polygamy, but no matter how old you become in the future, I love you, so I will marry you and make all of you mine. Don't force me to stop since this is what I want to do and something that drives me to move forward, so wait for that day, okay?"
They stared at him for a while and were in a daze.
Those words that came from his heart seemed to ignite something in their hearts and burst their hearts. They didn't know how to describe their feelings, but they just wanted to hug him at that moment.
"Un." 4x
More words would make his determination empty, but at this moment, they didn't care about the concert anymore and asked him to go home since they wanted to show their appreciation in their own way.
How?
Naturally, it was a secret that only the five of them knew.
However, it might take a while for them to go back to the villa, so they decided to stay in the hotel since their desires were like a flame that would burn them down and the cool temperature of Karuizawa wasn't enough to ease them, only him, who could solve this problem.
With this, their trip to Karuizawa ended, and soon, he had to go back to Kyoto, the place where his parents and his family lived.
