Seeing Crystal's unsatisfied expression, Anom sat up before leaning over to pull her over to him.
Lying down once more, he then made her lay on top of him, her soft bosom resting against his chest.
"You don't have to worry, Crystal. You'll understand it soon enough." There was a kind smile on his face as he assured her.
As Loreana heard his words and looked at his expression, which was in total contrast to the topic, she couldn't help but marvel at how someone could even say that with a straight face.
Crystal, who was on top of him, suddenly squirmed. "Anom! Something is poking me in the stomach."
Hearing her words, the other two blanked for a moment before Loreana suddenly glared at Anom.
Anom himself was stunned. Facing Loreana's warning glare, he smiled wryly.
Speedily, he moved his hand to check around his waist before yanking something out of there.
It was his sheathed blade.
"It was my blade poking her, not the "sword" you were..."
"Alright, I got it!" Loreana huffed before asking, "Do you have anything else to ask or say to me?"
"Why do I feel like you are chasing me out?" said Anom while making a depressed face.
"Because I am!" Too bad Loreana didn't buy his act and heartlessly refused his indirect request to stay.
"Fine…" Anom nodded before speaking, "But I really have something to talk to you about before I leave."
As he saw Loreana nod, Anom then told them about what he knew about Loreana's charm related bloodline. He also gave them some information regarding Luna. He didn't tell them about the possibility of her being related to or being the goddess herself, though. That would be too much for them to believe.
The ladies were in disbelief. Their interaction created an amazing mess, and each of them was unique in their own right.
"So you were the one who supposedly caused the change in our nature?" Loreana then asked while hinting at something.
Anom nodded before shaking his head. "I was the trigger, but I alone would not have been enough to create the situation. Luna and you were the ones who interacted with me to create this mess."
He also added, "And don't think of it as a change in nature. It was actually the release of a person's true nature. So everything that happened... was natural." Anom ended his words with a smirk.
Loreana was nodding to his previous words when she heard this. Her expression turned slightly embarrassed before she cleared her throat and asked, "Hmm. Anything else?"
Anom pursed his lips before saying, "Fine, I'm going now."
He then looked at Crystal, who was lying above him, who also looked back and met his gaze. She seemed to have gotten too comfortable in the position, as she didn't even move after hearing their words.
"Alright, girl." Anom kissed her forehead gently. "Get off before your mother throws me out of this place."
Crystal giggled at his words before pouting. "You don't care about me anymore, right? Why would you anyway? After all, you three seemed to have formed a club of unique beings, while I'm the ordinary one." She was obviously making a joke and didn't mean it seriously.
"Of course not." But Anom looked at her seriously before saying, "You are the most special for being able to deal with all of us."
Anom's words made Crystal smile, and he couldn't help but give her a kiss for her cuteness.
"A-Anom… Mom…" Crystal blushed as she hid her face in his chest while notifying him of someone's presence.
"Her too?" Anom sighed. "If you say so..."
"Huh?"
Then, before any of the ladies could understand his meaning, Anom had already moved quickly, despite the weight of Crystal above him.
His face appeared in front of Loreana before he kissed her too.
Of course, he only pecked her on the cheek. He didn't dare to do more than that, at least for now.
Crystal giggled as she got off of him. "That's not what I meant, you pervert."
Loreana was busy being stunned when Anom had already moved towards the exit.
"Good night, ladies!" He said with a laugh before disappearing from the room.
After checking that Anom had really left this time, Crystal quickly closed the door before jumping on the bed beside her mother.
"Mom~" She said coyly as she hugged her mother while lying side by side with her.
"What?" Loreana asked while smiling, her face still slightly red. Her hands were gently stroking her daughter's hair.
Crystal thought for a moment before asking with a serious face, "Is this how it's going to be after we both marry him?"
Crystal suddenly felt the hand stroking her head pause. Loreana's face was also frozen before she could finally react.
"W-why would you think that? Why would I marry him?"
"Oh really?" Crystal gave her a look before muttering, "So, another unclear relationship, huh?"
Loreana's eyes widened at her words before she chided her, "I really don't know if you are naïve or naughty, you girl."
"Well, I'm your daughter."
"Hmm… That you are." Loreana smiled. "Alright, sleep now."
"Alight, Mom." Muah~ "Goodnight!"
"Naughty girl! You're teasing your mother too?"
Giggle~
…
"Haah~" Anom sighed in satisfaction as he sipped the hot drink that tasted like coffee.
He was already back in his room and was currently thinking about some things.
"Hmm? Come to think of it, I didn't spend time with Luna today." Deciding to greet her tomorrow before he left, Anom made his way towards the bed.
"It's time to meet the head wife." He chuckled as he closed his eyes. He soon found the soul imprint of his beloved and triggered it.
"Welcome, my harem master...
A cheery voice welcomed Anom as his consciousness formed.
Staring at the goddess, who was dressed in black and white maid attire, Anom didn't know whether to admire her or be speechless at her comment. Well, since he was indecisive, he decided to do both.
"The skirt could be a bit short." Anom commented as he rubbed his chin while gazing at her knee-length skirt.
"Still hungry for some flirting, eh?" Della chuckled. "Figures. You didn't get to feast on your Oyakodon after all."
Anom was baffled. "Where did you even learn that word?" Seeing her staring at him with a smile, he relented. "Fine, fine. But it's not like I need to be deprived of flirting to do it with you again, is it?"
"What?" He smiled before adding with a smirk, "Don't tell me you're craving some fun too."
Della blushed before retorting mercilessly, "You still have a long way to go, young man. Go, train some more before dreaming."
Anom walked towards her and pushed her down on the soft, cloud-like ground.
"You know I can do it in this soul world too, right?"
"Mm-hm." Della nodded with a sweet smile. "But I also know that you won't. You will wait for the day you become strong enough to touch the real me."
As Anom smiled in reply and buried his face in those soft mounds of hers, she added.
"Either that or you will die trying. Then I will take your soul and transform you into a spirit angel. Then I will have you all to myself. Hehe~"
"Che. Stop your act already. You're talking as if you're not the one who encouraged me to form a harem."
"Oh? Did I?" She acted forgetful before asking in a pitiful tone, "Then tell me, am I going to regret it?"
Anom instantly replied, "No way, my goddess! That was the best decision you could have made. After all, I could get some practice before showing you my ultimate skills. Aren't you glad your husband is so hardworking?"
"Practice, huh?" Della smirked. "I wonder what my little sisters will have to say when they hear about it."
"Urgh! Consider yourself ruthless!" Anom's expression changed as if he had eaten a fly. Finally, he showed a defeated expression. "O' Merciful Goddess! Please don't! They'll eat me alive!"
"Haha~"
