Chapter 72 - Another long explanation

Currently I am at my house. Mary and Mizuki have been summoned to this world as heroes. Selena came as Selene's priestess. The Valkyries have become their guides and Medea is responsible for all of this.

However, staying there was kind of uncomfortable so I teleported all of us to my house. My house is not big enough to house everyone so I expanded it with spatial magic.

We are all sitting on sofas with me in the center. Mizuki and Mary are quite at me. Selene was talking to me and she sounded angry as well. Midway through, she changed with Selena. Medea is tittering and I am very tired.

"Do tell me Akatsuki, what have you been doing these 5000 years?" (Selene)

"It's confusing if you keep changing with Selena. But mostly sleeping I guess. I went on a short trip after my deal was over and then came here, dug a hole and fell asleep. I woke up a few days ago when they found this place."

I point at the Valkyries. They became stiff.

"So, you have been sleeping for 5000 years. Sounds totally like you." (Mizuki)

"I had nothing to do. Besides, the gifts Selene gave me were too powerful for mortals. Though I am am immortal. An immortal being living among mortals would spark fear and conflict. I decided to remove myself from the picture to ensure the peace of this world."

I seldom think about the things I do but living in seclusion was the best bet I had.

"But Selene, I want to give up my immortality. It's no fun if you alone live eternally. I have to become someone else if I want to do that."

"Sorry, but your immortality is permanent. You can't just give it up." (Selene)

That is the trouble. I can't just give up my immortality and become a mortal.

"So Akatsuki, what are you planning on doing?" (Mizuki)

"You guys are summoned here to defeat the demon king who has revived. But to be honest, I don't think that is necessary."

"What do you mean?" (Aisha)

"Because I can fix this problem in a heartbeat. Medea is playing a bad joke on me."

This is starting to feel similar somehow. Did I go through this before as well?

"You can actually do it if you want." (Medea)

Medea suddenly said. She was quiet the whole time.

"I can? Then I will."

I set a story and rewrote the world. The demon king is gone. The summoned heroes have done their jobs. The guides have done their job.

Humans and demons have started living in harmony and 2000 years of peace is lying in wait. The next big calamity will befall 2000 years later.

The humans have been informed about this and they will do this on their own without relying on any gods or summoned heroes.

"Pretty good, don't you think?"

"Yeah. But isn't 2000 years a bit too much?" (Medea)

"Give them time. Humans thrive when they know there is danger incoming. The next danger will easily wipe this planet out. So they have no choice but to do their utmost best in fending this one off."

Everyone sighed. I think my job here is done.

"How about we go back?"

"Yeah. We specifically came to get you back." (Mary)

"Girls, it has been a short meeting but I will never forget you."

"Wait, what do you mean never forget us?" (Aisha)

I snapped my fingers and the Valkyries disappeared.

"Is that alright?" (Medea)

"He is incorrigible." (Selene)

"What did he do?" (Mary)

"He wiped out their memories. At least of his. They don't remember Akatsuki anymore. It will all seem a dream to them." (Selene)

"Isn't that nice? Those three were bystanders from the beginning. I didn't want to drag them any further."

"I guess that's that. Now let's head back. You have a surprise waiting for you." (Selene)

"A surprise for me? Let me guess, is it my sister?"

"Hey, don't guess your surprise." (Selene)

"Come on. I went there to free her. Of course I know she is alive. How can it be a surprise?"

The joking ended and I went back to my previous world. Medea said that she would stay in touch.

And now, I am at my home. It's the same as ever. The ever so lonely house. Nothing changed. Maybe Selene looked after it.

The only change is that I have some new inhabitants.

"Akatsuki, dinner is ready. Help Mary setting up the table." (Mizuki)

"Ok."

I lied. This house is not lonely at all. Mizuki and Mary are living with me. Of course my sister Nino is as well. When Selena woke up after Selene left, she also moved in.

How did it come to pass? I was living all alone before my death. However, now I got 4 housemates. Moreover, they are cooperating with each other to effectively tie me down.

"Akatsuki, you aren't going anywhere this time." (Mizuki)

"About the marriage proposal, I accept it. Do make me happy, Akatsuki." (Mary)

"Take responsibility for changing me, Akatsuki." (Selena)

"Big brother, will you stay with me forever?" (Nino)

They all kinda pinned me down these lines. Now I can't even run away. As a side note, they all have their parents's approval.

Isn't it turning into a generic harem story? Is it the happy ending for me? Do I begin my new life with all four of them? Something seems lackluster and I will soon find out exactly what.
