Chereads / MUSHOKU TENSEI: the beginning after the end / Chapter 76 - Something is wrong

Chapter 76 - Something is wrong

I went to sleep as soon as we returned from Roa, don't blame me I got up too early haha...

Now with a visit with Lili I had already reunited with all my children....the truth is it is a small weight that I can take off...

It has been 1 month and 16 days since I traveled to this world... in this time I made advances and discoveries in such a short time that the truth is I still have a hard time believing it... I can't help it, I say I am an emperor in all styles 

of magic!!

When I was in Begaritt I would never have believed such incredible progress in my magic in such a short time...

but putting that aside, now I have clearer objectives, my priority now is to go to Millis, I really want to go see Clifth 

I should go there with my 3 girls

I get impatient just thinking about it since I am in the penultimate of my destinations

After going to MIllis according to Orsted we must go to the great forest and then recruit the demon queen Atofe Raybaku again, but we'll get to that

my short-term priority? 

"SLEEP"

..

I got out of bed in the middle of the night, my mouth was dry and my hair was disheveled.

After a quick fix in the bathroom I went downstairs and looked at the clock.

It was 9:20 at night

"Shit, I missed it a little," I muttered as I walked to the kitchen.

In the kitchen I found Sylphie and Roxy having dinner.

I guess they are already getting ready to sleep.

"Oh?!, dear, I thought you would sleep until tomorrow hehe" Sylphie said with a smile

"Yes, I thought so too haha" I said with a smile as I sat at the table.

"Did you sleep well?" Roxy asked while eating.

"I regained all my strength but I don't think I'll go to sleep soon," I said.

"Well....in that case we should make you exhaust yourself, right Roxy?" Sylphie said in a flirtatious tone while looking at Roxy.

"A-ah...I guess so..." Roxy said blushing, realizing the meaning of Sylphie's words.

I just laugh at this

-As for all this, where is Nana?-I asked.

"She's already sleeping, she had dinner early when she saw that you were asleep" Sylphie explained.

"I see, and Lara?" I asked again but this time Sylphie and Roxy tensed slightly.

"Is something wrong?" I asked slightly worried. -w-well...you see Rudy...Lara went out a couple of hours ago to...have a couple of drinks...-Sylphie said at the end with a murmur, lowering her head quickly as if it were something forbidden.

I looked at Roxy out of the corner of my eye and she quickly looked away.

Something is wrong here...

"hmmm I see, she said what time she would be back?" I asked with a smile.

Roxy and Sylphie were visibly surprised by my lack of reaction and soon after Roxy let out a sigh of relief.

-The time...well...she said she would be back before midnight- Sylphie said with a small but obvious fear in her eyes, I looked at Roxy out of the corner of my eye and she also looked nervous.

What are my girls thinking?...

I slowly got up from the chair, Sylphie and Roxy visibly tensed at this and Sylphie began to accumulate tears in her eyes and then looked at the floor.

oh no....don't tell me that...

I slowly walked away from the table and looked at the two of them.

Sylphie had an expression of tension and fear and Roxy seemed like she wanted to say something but didn't dare.

If it is what I think it is I have to clarify it immediately

-Why do you get like that? Is something wrong with Lara going out?- I asked, looking at them. 

Sylphie and Roxy looked at me in disbelief.

I guess it's not the reaction you expected, huh?

-What are you thinking about me? Come here now- I said with a smile, extending my arms for a hug.

Roxy relaxed completely and Sylphie smiled embarrassed.

They both got up quickly to hug me.

I hugged them tightly and we stayed like that for a few moments, I could feel the accelerated heartbeats of both...

-Is it wrong for Lara to go out? Or why did they react like that?- I asked softly

Sylphie tensed up again and began to sob lightly

-uuuuh...forgive me Rudy...I didn't know what I was thinking...I-I feel like an idiot just thinking that you would react violently- Sylphie said between sobs

-I'm sorry too Rudy...Lara has behaved very badly these days and I thought that maybe you were fed up with her- Roxy said embarrassed

ah...I see....

Thinking about it, it's normal for them to think like that, Lara...has behaved like a brat, but nothing that a serious talk will fix

On the other hand Sylphie...shit...I promised myself that I wouldn't be dense about these things

It happened to me before with Paul in Millis and in Begaritt, with Nanahoshi when her experiment failed...the same thing happened to me in my past life...

I live in my bubble of perfection and I ignore the problems on purpose so that the bubble doesn't break...

I hugged them both tighter and kissed their respective heads

-I'm sorry girls, am I an idiot right? I should have worried you... I would never react violently with you and you know it right?-- I asked with a smile

Sylphie didn't say anything but instead she started crying harder

-uuuuuuuu (sniff) I know, obviously (sniff) obviously I knew... you-you would never do anything to hurt us... I'm sorry for even thinking that way about you Rudy!- Sylphie said burying her face in my chest while her tears wet my shirt

-I apologize too Rudy... I was just worried, after all in relationships communication is essential right?- Roxy said with an embarrassed smile

-hehe, yes, yes they are- I said...

if a couple doesn't have communication it can lead to misunderstandings... misunderstandings lead to suspicions... suspicions lead to confrontations... and confrontations...

at that moment Eris crossed my mind...

after All , I had my own misunderstanding, huh?

I waited for Sylphie to calm down, I kept hugging her until she spoke

-I-I promise not to doubt you again Rudy, right now I feel like a big idiot...- Sylphie said embarrassed

-And I promise to talk to Lara seriously about her behavior- Roxy said seriously

I kept hugging them for a while until I felt it was enough

-I'm a little hungry hehe, is there anything left for dinner?- I asked with a smile

-Ah! Yes, right away dear!- Sylphie said with renewed humor

I had dinner in the company of my dear wives

I have to remember this talk for the rest of my life....

I can't afford to keep pretending that nothing is happening....

This happened very often in my old world

The man was totally absorbed in his work that he neglected household matters, putting aside what matters most....

Sounds like the plot of a typical NTR doujin, right? If I want this to work I have to put more than just the plate on the table

..

After this mental realization I had dinner with my girls, we showered and at bedtime...

I'll just say that Sylphie devoted herself to observing...
