Chapter 15: Etheralion Replisis
Zyra has heard the meek voice of Arthur, who is blushing profusely while having a worried look on his handsome face. It hurts her heart to see the worried look on such a handsome man like Arthur.
So she quickly apologized for what she had done.
"I am sorry, Arthur, for rushing you so much. You can eat while taking as much time as you want. I won't say anything and only watch you eat, so forgive me."
Arthur, who has just said sorry for his rudeness, doesn't even understand why she is the one who is asking for his forgiveness.
'This reverse world is strange. I have to quickly get used to this.'
He only gives her a nod in response because the previous talking has already spent all the energy he had to talk to these beautiful Elves.
'Arthur, you have to quickly get used to talking to women; otherwise, these beautiful elves will leave you,' Without even realizing that his previous behavior has only made them even more obsessed with him, he thinks that his meek behavior would turn them away from him.
For the women with reverse gender morality the idea of having a handsome man who is shy and meek—and more importantly, he has also lost his memories —this looks like a perfect romance novel, where the strong female will make the innocent male lead remember their forgotten memories and loving moments.
Zyra and Liora both know they didn't have any special place in the previous Arthur, but this doesn't mean they are going to stop pursuing a rare, handsome, and innocent man like him.
Liora is pleased to see how her friend has realized her own mistake and asked for his forgiveness, as she would have punched her if she hadn't done so.
Arthur once again started eating the fruit bite by bite as the two Elves stayed in their place, watching him lovingly while he ate. He felt a little conscious of this, but he could see the love in their eyes, so he didn't say anything and continued eating while looking at the red transparent screen hovering in front of his eyes.
He could see with each bite he took of these fruits, the circle loading in front of him filled more and more. While he couldn't see inside his soul, some major changes were happening unknown to him.
He finished the first fruit, but it still didn't fully fill the circle, so he continued and picked up the next one and started eating while both only found him cute as he ate.
However, after some time, their reactions started to change little by little as this was the seventh fruit Arthur was trying to eat, and they could see he was struggling a little. Not having the will to watch any longer, they directly called out to him out of worry.
'Does our poor Arthur even forget how much he should eat and think he has to finish all the fruits in front of him?'
Zyra had taken out a total of 10 of these fruits from her special ring, and two of these fruits are equal to a low-grade mana potion, but it takes some time to recover mana from these, unlike mana potions.
She had thought the most he would be able to eat would be 4 even if he was extremely hungry, as the size of these fruits is quite big for normal humans because they are twice the size of an apple, so she was concerned after seeing what he was doing now.
She would have stopped him earlier; however, seeing how focused he was on eating, they didn't stop him. But now, this is something, that would make him sick if he continued any longer.
"Arthur, you shouldn't eat that much. You would feel sick if you do this."
Arthur was already feeling a little sick in his stomach when he started eating the sixth one, but he continued eating as the loading screen was still not complete.
'I don't know if I would ever be able to get my hands on these expensive-looking fruits,' so he decided to complete the loading on the red transparent screen hovering in front of him, even if he fell sick afterward.
Hearing the voice of the beautiful Half-Elves that wanted him to stop, he only looked at them with pleading eyes and said a single word, as any more would make him throw up.
"P-Please."
Zyra and Liora, hearing his words and seeing the pleading look on his handsome face, changed their minds in seconds and gave each other a knowing look with a resolute nod, having the exact same thought in their minds.
'Even if he gets sick afterward, we would fix him with some healing spells, but we can't stop him when he asks us with such eyes. How can we call ourselves his women who would protect him all his life when we can't do such a little thing for him?'
Giving a bright smile to Arthur, they told him at the same time.
"Eat as much as you want, Arthur. We will take care of everything."
Hearing the voices of the beautiful Elves whose fruits he is currently eating allowing him to continue, Arthur didn't wait much longer and slowly started eating the fruit once again.
Finally, after one minute of struggle, he fully finished the fruit as the screen in front of him changed and a new window appeared in front of him.
[You have become the sole owner of Ethelarion Replisis.]
[Ethelarion Replisis is now completely bound by your soul, and none can take it away from you even if the gods descend upon the mortal world.]
[For you who is now the sole owner of Ethelarion Replisis, the cosmos awaits your mighty tale.]
[It wishes you luck and hopes you won't fall before showing its true might to the cosmos]
Arthur didn't show any reaction on his face other than a blush he still couldn't hide while in the presence of two beautiful elves who were wearing such tight clothes.
He didn't focus on the words in front of him for now, as he would check them when these Elves left, and for now, he only wanted to lay on the comfortable bed for a few hours as he felt like if he even moved for a few seconds, he would throw up.
He even thought if the screen could disappear from in front of him as he couldn't help but steal glances at it.
Right after having these thoughts, the screen vanished completely from his sight, which surprised him a little. However, being an otaku, he read about this type of system in his previous life in novels, which he could control with his thoughts.
'Ethelarion Replisis.'
Whatever that is, it sounds like it must be something great. He read the first line when he took some peeks at the red screen, which said he had become the sole owner of Ethelarion Replisis.
He didn't think about this for now and looked at the two elves who were openly fawning over him. While being in the presence still made him shy, little by little, he was getting used to it.
"Are you okay, Arthur? Do you feel sick?" Zyra asked him, seeing he had not picked up another fruit, which she took as a sign he was full now. But that doesn't mean he would feel okay after eating those seven fruits.
