After the class, Haru, Yuri, Lynn, Maria, and Sicily went to Shin's house to meet both the Wise Man and the Guru, but...
"Let's use "Gate" so it'll be faster," Shin said and used his magic to create a door back to his house. He looked at everyone with a smile and said, "Let's go."
"..."
Everyone was speechless by Shin's magic. They knew that he was strong, but this...
Haru looked at Shin's gate and asked, "You use this door to shorten the distance between the class and your house?"
"Yes." Shin nodded with a smile and explained to Haru kindly. "Unlike teleportation that is moving something to another place, this magic only shortens the distance between two places."
"I see." Haru nodded and asked, "Can you go anywhere with it?"
"No, I can only use it in places where I have been. Other than that, I can only walk, run, or fly," Shin said.
"Can we use this kind of magic too?" Maria asked curiously since this magic was way too convenient, right?
Shin smiled awkwardly and said, "I'm not sure, but you should know that my grandpa can't use this magic."
"What?! The Wise Man can't use this magic?!" Shin's words stupefied everyone.
"...." Haru looked at Shin and could only shake his head at this moment. "Well, Shin, can we go to your house now? I feel bad to make both of your grandparents wait."
"Yes." Shin nodded.
"Wait, Shin, let me come with you. I want to report to both Wise Man and Guru about your rewards, too," August said since he didn't want to be left behind.
"Let's go, Yuri, Lynn, Maria, Sicily," Haru said.
"Um." 4x
The four of them nodded and followed Haru to enter the "Gate" carefully since it was their first time to see such magic, and at the same time, their expression on Shin started to change.
---
The seven of them entered the "Gate" simultaneously, and they arrived at Shin's house.
"Shin! How many times have I told you not to use a gate at home?!"
"I'm sorry, grandma, but it is faster this way," Shin said with a helpless expression.
"Th - The Guru!!!"
Yuri, Maria, and Lynn were excited when they saw Melinda Bowen.
"Oh? You have also brought your friends too, Shin?"
"Yes, grandpa." Shin nodded with a smile.
The four girls have been in trace since it was their first time seeing Wise Man, Merlin Wolford, and Guru, Melinda Bowen, right before their eyes.
Melinda then ignored Shin and looked at the four girls who walked out with her grandson, looking at them with a smile, and asked him, "By the way, Shin, which one is your girlfriend?"
"....."
When those words came out, the atmosphere became awkward.
Shin glanced at Sicily slightly with a red face and then quickly said, "No, no, I don't have a girlfriend, grandma!" Even though he was an adult, he was still embarrassed when he was being teased like this, and he only wanted his grandma to stop teasing him since he didn't want his image of Sicily to be bad.
August could only shake his head and had to admit that even though his friend was good at magic, his way into a relationship was quite awkward. After all, even though a lot of days had passed, Shin's relationship with his crush had never become closer.
"How useless!" Melinda snorted and could only shake her head when she thought that her grandson couldn't even get a single girl in his class, but as a woman, she then noticed a strange aura from the ordinary man that had been standing around the four girls. It might be because his face was so ordinary that he didn't notice him before, but when she saw a shocking thing, the four beautiful girls that came might be related to this young man.
Haru put on his best smile and said, "Nice to meet you, the Wise Man, the Guru. My name is Kasugano Haruka."
"Oh? You're Kasugano Haruka?" Merlin was surprised since Haru was so ordinary. Besides Haru's body, he really couldn't see anything special on him, which surprised him. Yes, he was surprised. After all, Haru's appearance wasn't like what the rumor said, and his appearance was so ordinary, but when he looked at him closely, he could see that Haru's body might be packed with power.
Melinda's face was quite unnatural, and she said, "I've heard that Kasugano Haruka is a very amazing young man, and it seems that rumors are true since you even bring your own harem to meet us." She looked at Haru up and down, wondering what made this ordinary guy so attractive, but then her eyes stopped at his nether region, which caused her face to become slightly hot.
Yuri, Lynn, Maria, and Sicily blushed and lowered their heads, hiding behind Haru's huge body.
"Ha - Harem?!" 2x
Merlin and Shin were in shock.
"....." August wasn't sure how to compete with him now.
"I'm sorry for my rudeness, but when they have heard that I'm going to meet both the Wise Man and the Guru, they're so excited and want to meet both of you two," Haru said.
Merlin stroked his beard and said, "No, it is alright, but are the four of them really your girlfriends?" He still couldn't believe how this ordinary guy could get all four beautiful girls, where his handsome grandson was still single.
"No, my women are only both of them," Haru said while holding both Lynn and Yuri.
Lynn and Yuri lowered their heads shyly, then greeted both Merlin and Melinda politely.
"Then how about the two of them?" Melinda asked.
"Hello Guru, my name is Maria von Messina," Maria said.
"My name is Sicily von Claude," Sicily said.
"As for our relationship with this bastard, we're not his women at all," Maria said with a snort.
Sicily wasn't sure why, but she felt a bit bitter and sad, so she only lowered her head.
Melinda could hear that Haru was a real predator since he didn't say something like a girlfriend or something, but he said that they were his women. She had to admit that this ordinary young man was so charming and wild at that moment.
Shin was surprised when he heard that Haru had a harem. After all, he thought everyone in this kingdom was living in monogamy, so he thought Haru was dating Yuri, but he didn't expect him to date Lynn together. Still, at the same time, he sighed in relief since Sicily was omitted.
Merlina and Melinda became interested in this young man so...
"Well, it is rude for us to let you keep standing here. Come inside," Merlin said.
"Yes." Melinda nodded and said, "Let's talk inside."
"Thank you," Haru said with a smile, then also brought Yuri, Lynn, Sicily, and Maria with him.
Shin also followed his grandparents and kept glancing at Sicily from time to time.
Then they left, leaving August, whose presence was suddenly thinned out and wasn't noticed by everyone.
"..."
'Am I being ignored?'
