Akatsuki widened her eyes when she heard Reina's question. She wanted to say something, but in the end, she shut her mouth. At that moment, she was scared. She was scared to lose him since she thought Reina's question might have touched his bottom limit.
Unlike Reina, who was naive and bold, Akatsuki knew that their position was different in Mizuto's heart. Compared to Yume, their position was much less in his heart, but she worked hard to become more important to him.
Unlike Yume, who had formed a normal relationship with him, Akatsuki and Reina have an abnormal way of forming their relationship. After all, they became together due to alcohol during their trip to the Ise-Shima.
While Reina didn't think anything strange about how they became one, Akatsuki knew that Mizuto was okay with living without them. If they left him, then that was okay. He didn't lack a woman, and when they left, many would willingly be in their places even if they knew they couldn't be his only one.
Yet, Akatsuki wasn't okay without him. She had fallen too deeply with him, and no one else could exchange his place in her heart, but she didn't know what to do, thinking that Reina had said too much. However, when she was in a panic, his hand patted her head softly as he looked at her affectionately.
"..."
Akatsuki wasn't sure, but she felt all of the worries in her heart disappear.
"You are curious." Mizuto looked at Reina.
"Yeah... what makes her more special than us?" Reina asked enviously. While Yume could act chummily and be spoiled by him, she could only hide. Even though she didn't mind, she wanted to ask him the reason. She didn't think that she was worse than Yume, and... she felt like she was less perverted than Yume, which should be a good point, right?
More importantly, Reina even dared to give him a threesome with Akatsuki.
Why was Yume special?
Reina wanted to hear that question, but still, she had to say she felt relief when Mizuto didn't get angry.
"I don't love her." As expected, Mizuto still couldn't fall in love with someone, but "Even so, she is more special."
"Why?" 2x
The two asked at the same time, clearly unconvinced.
"Because she is first."
"...that's it?"
"Yup. That's it." Mizuto nodded. "The reason is just that. They don't have to be special, the kindest, the most beautiful, the smartest, or whatever it is. Sometimes, one has to be there at the right moment, in the right place. Yet, that's why it makes her special."
Reina and Akatsuki fell in silence, but they also understood Mizuto's reason. A reason why someone could be special to others was just like that sometimes. This person might not be the most beautiful or even imperfect, yet they just happened to be there when someone needed others the most—this single moment made everything different.
Yet, this was something that was impossible to mimic or replicate by Reina and Akatsuki.
If it was a style, a personality, or others, they might do something, but this alone... they couldn't do anything. As they felt helpless and at a loss, they heard his voice again.
"But it doesn't mean that she is more special than you two."
"Eh?" 2x
"You two are also special to me," Mizuto said softly. "Our meeting might be different, but I never thought of you two as less than Yume, and as I have said before, I would take responsibility for you. While this responsibility might be different from how it normally is in society, I won't leave you two. No, you two are mine."
"....."
Reina and Akatsuki stared at him in a daze before their breathing became rapid, and they moved forward, staring another round for the obscene act that they loved the most.
Nevertheless, Mizuto had to say that a woman was troublesome, yet this was how they were. As they had many of them, he knew that he would encounter many similar things where they would doubt how his feelings toward them, and all he could do was to erase that worry and doubt.
Instead of embracing peace, he would say embrace the trouble.
Instead of holding everything inwardly, it was better to say everything.
Even in the end, it became a huge fight; it didn't matter since everything was progressing.
When one was in a relationship, being together didn't mean the end. Instead, it was the beginning.
Then, when was the end?
The end was when either of them was separated due to either death or another reason.
This might be tough, but it was like how steel becomes harder as it is tempered. The relationship was like that.
Peace might be good, but it stood still, unable to progress before; in the end, it would rust and then shatter.
However, as one was able to solve a single problem, their bond would become stronger.
Mizuto knew that, so he was rather patient with his women. Instead of avoiding this problem, he had to admit that Yume was more special than Reina and Akatsuki, and the reason was as simple as he had said before.
Yume was the first.
That's it.
The first had always been special, and that was why, unlike the others, he didn't care, even if they stayed or left him. If they stayed, he would take care of them, but if they left, then that's it. However, it didn't mean that he wouldn't make an effort to make them stay.
After all, if you want to get rich, you need to work hard, right?
While luck was part of it, Mizuto knew that he had used his luck, so all that was left was his hard work at maintaining everything that he had gained. He couldn't take everything for granted and showed them that he was important... even if he didn't feel anything inside his heart.
Some people might say that this was troublesome, but it was because of this that he became popular, and some people weren't.
Effort.
This was important, but naturally, some people might not be worthy of an effort, and by then, it was better to cut the loss.
However, if you enjoy peace, you might as well enter a temple and let go of your worldly desires. By then, nothing matters, and what matters is only you and what you believe.
Still, the effort gained from a relationship was wonderful. Having someone by your side, knowing that they would be there, taking care of you when you need that person the most, was comfortable and gave you peace of mind.
This was his battle.
The battle of the modern day.
A troublesome battle that couldn't be seen by eyes, but when he achieved a victory in this battle, its taste was as wonderful as one conquered a country.
Still, instead of conquering a country, it was more troublesome to manage a country.
However, Mizuto never backed down from the challenge.
He loved the challenge!
Watching Akatsuki and Reina, who pressed their breasts against his erection, Mizuto was in a daze. Once again, small breasts and big breasts were pressed against each other as they stuck out their tongues, licking his erection at the same time.
"I am coming!"
Instead of moving away, they moved even closer, letting his semen stain their faces, hair, breasts, and bodies before they continued to lick the remains on his penis.
"...."
Still, this also made him realize that he wasn't wrong and that he would continue this battle until he could achieve his goal, which was to have a harem.

This one is early since I am afraid that I will fall asleep. There is one more later if I am not sleeping yet, but if I sleep, then wait till tomorrow.
Thanks~!
