Now, the problem before Broly was how to obtain happiness points.
[There are two ways to obtain happiness points:
When a wife unit is successfully recruited and agrees to become a formal member of the Harem System, their happiness level will be converted into happiness points at a 1:100 ratio.
After a wife becomes a member of the Harem System, continued interactions that generate happiness will be converted into happiness points at a 1:1 ratio.
Note: Happiness has a freshness factor. It fades over time, but as long as love remains, happiness points will continue to be produced.]
Broly only partially understood, but he grasped one thing: he needed to make his wife happy to earn happiness points, which could be exchanged for food.
[But how do I make my wife happy?]
Broly looked at young Sakura, who was still sniffling but had stopped crying and was now looking at him in confusion.
[Based on the Harem System's analysis of general information from the D95 world, fulfilling the needs of the target can increase their happiness levels.]
[Fulfilling needs?]
Broly paused, and the Harem System provided a simpler explanation he could understand.
[In other words, when the host is hungry, the wife provides food, and the host feels satisfied. That feeling of satisfaction is the happiness brought by fulfilling a need.]
Broly understood. He directly asked the crying girl, "Do you want something to eat?"
"Huh?!"
Young Sakura was stunned by his sudden question. Why was he asking her if she wanted to eat out of nowhere?
"No, I'm not hungry."
But she still answered honestly.
"Huh?!"
Hearing this, Broly was confused and asked the Harem System why his approach didn't work.
The Harem System seemed to freeze for a moment.
After a while, it responded.
[Feeling satisfied after being given food when hungry is the host's personal condition for happiness. It is not a universal condition that applies to others.
In different situations, different people have different personal conditions for feeling satisfied and happy. Please analyze the target's needs yourself and fulfill them to increase their happiness level.]
[What should I do?]
Broly pressed further.
[Reminder: This Harem System only provides the basic conditions for pursuing wives. It does not have the obligation to pursue them on behalf of the host.
According to Article 38 of the System's Original Act, we adhere to the role of an auxiliary tool, not a substitute for the host.]
The Harem System paused before continuing.
[In other words, please rely on yourself to fulfill your wife's needs and earn happiness points.]
Broly: "..."
"How can I satisfy you?"
He turned to young Sakura and asked her directly.
"Huh?!"
Young Sakura was utterly confused. What did this boy with a tail want to satisfy? Her stomach?
But she had eaten plenty last night and wasn't hungry at all!
"How can I make you happy?"
Broly asked again, this time leaning closer to young Sakura. His questioning eyes stared intently at her from up close.
"I..."
Young Sakura felt overwhelmed and didn't know how to respond.
"Wait, you said you wanted to go home."
Broly suddenly remembered what she had said earlier.
"Tomorrow, I'll take you home, okay?"
Broly asked.
"Huh?!"
Young Sakura made a surprised sound before hesitantly saying, "But my parents don't want me anymore."
"Why does that matter? You want to go home, right?"
Broly didn't quite understand.
"But it's their home..."
Young Sakura whispered.
"It's your home too."
Broly lay back down and raised his small fist, showing it to the girl beside him.
"Don't worry. If your parents try to take your home away, I'll use force to take it back and kick them out."
Broly's words carried the essence of a Saiyan. This was part of the education Paragus had instilled in him: if you want something, you can use force to take it.
"Uh..."
Taking back the home and kicking her parents out? Was that even possible?
Wait, no. If her parents were kicked out, would it still be a home?
Young Sakura's mind was in chaos, but she could feel Broly's sincerity.
"Thank you, but if possible, please don't kick my parents out."
Surprisingly, young Sakura didn't doubt Broly's ability to kick her parents out and made the request.
"If it makes you happy, I won't kick them out."
Broly agreed seriously.
"Thank you."
Young Sakura thanked him again and gradually fell asleep on the pillow.
Broly yawned, feeling the warmth of the futon, which was a new experience for him. He also drifted off to sleep.
The night passed quietly, though the girl's brows furrowed in her sleep. It wasn't until she snuggled closer to Broly, using him as a warm pillow, that she settled down.
In the morning, Fujimura Taiga came to check on them. She gently knocked and entered the room, only to find the two children sleeping together, with an unused futon lying beside them.
[They look so cute sleeping together like that!]
This was Fujimura Taiga's immediate thought upon seeing the two in the futon. She didn't wake them and instead crouched nearby, watching their sleeping forms. Gradually, she began to fantasize about her own future.
In short, she imagined marrying some prince charming and having two children with him.
Whether they were siblings or not, she thought it would be a happy thing to admire their sleeping faces every day.
Hmm, in this situation, she could even take a photo titled [Deceiving an Innocent Girl into Having Children] for a scam.
[Fujimura Taiga's happiness level is steadily increasing.]
Broly was awakened by the Harem System's notification. When he opened his eyes, he saw a smiling girl crouching beside him.
Then, he felt something wrapped around him. Looking down, he saw a small head resting on his chest.
Young Sakura had used him as a pillow, with most of her body lying on top of him. Fortunately, Broly slept soundly, or there might have been a serious accident last night.
[Holding a girl in my arms, I might kill in my sleep...]
This strange thought surfaced in Broly's mind. He gently pushed the girl sleeping on top of him.
"Mmm..."
Young Sakura woke up groggily. When she saw the boy's face in front of her...
"Ah!"
She screamed, but upon seeing Fujimura Taiga beside her, she remembered she was no longer in the Matou household.
At that moment, she felt something furry brushing against her leg. Looking down, she saw it was Broly's tail.
Broly was also slightly startled by young Sakura's reaction. Though his face showed no signs of fear, the flicking of his tail betrayed his unease.
"Sorry, I was lying on you."
Young Sakura quickly apologized.
"It's fine. You're not heavy, and your body is soft and warm, like Baya's tail, though it doesn't have fur."
"Baya is?"
"Baya is my friend. I like sleeping on its body, and sometimes it covers me with its body."
Broly explained. Young Sakura half-understood, while Fujimura Taiga admitted she couldn't decipher the children's cryptic conversation.
"Why are you here?"
Broly asked Fujimura Taiga.
"I came to call you for breakfast, but you were sleeping so soundly that I didn't want to disturb you."
Broly was usually a light sleeper, but the people in this world were so weak—their power levels were probably less than five. To a Saiyan, whose power level was in the triple digits, the average human here was no different from an ant.
"Breakfast?!"
Broly was shocked.
"We just ate yesterday. Can we eat again today?"
He asked.
"Huh? If you don't eat, what will you do when you're hungry?"
Fujimura Taiga was also surprised.
"If I'm not training, I can go two or three days without feeling hungry."
Broly answered honestly. He didn't live a life with three meals a day.
For him, eating wasn't fixed. He would hunt when he was hungry.
If he wasn't hungry, he would either train with his father, Paragus, or play with Baya.
Fujimura Taiga didn't know what to say. In her understanding, Broly's answer meant he lived a life of uncertainty, sometimes going hungry and sometimes eating his fill.
"No wonder you ate so much last night. But don't worry, from now on, you'll have food every day."
Fujimura Taiga felt sorry for the boy and made this promise.
"?!"
Hearing this, Broly's favorability toward Fujimura Taiga skyrocketed. Unfortunately, he knew he would have to return home in five days.
Even if this second wife was willing to provide for him, their time together would end in five days due to their separation.
Unless he could take her and her food back to Vampa with him.
[Reminder: The host can only take non-living objects that are in direct contact with their skin. To take a wife with you, you must first unlock the Harem System's internal space.]
[Internal space?]
[Currently, the Harem System is at Level 1, with 0/5 formal members. Once you have 5 formal members, the Harem System will automatically upgrade to Level 2, unlocking the internal space construction function.
The host can spend happiness points to construct buildings from past experiences.
Currently, the host has 0 happiness points.
Available targets: 1. Sakura Matou, happiness level 25.
Fujimura Taiga, happiness level 31.]
The Harem System provided a lot of information, and Broly felt his brain was struggling to keep up.
But he understood one thing: he couldn't take much from this world.
---
"This food is so good! Give me another bowl!"
The morning meal was delicious. Knowing that Fujimura Taiga would provide him with food for the next five days, Broly didn't overeat this time, but he still devoured five buckets of rice and two pots of dishes.
Fujimura Raiga's eyelids twitched as he watched. Last night, someone had reported to him that the child his granddaughter brought home had an enormous appetite.
But he hadn't expected it to be this extreme. The boy ate more than a glutton, and it was unclear how his stomach could hold so much.
Eating enough for over a dozen people in one meal, three times a day—raising this child was like raising over a dozen freeloading adult men.
Even as the boss of Fuyuki City's underworld, Fujimura Raiga felt a headache coming on. It wasn't that he couldn't afford it, but the cost-effectiveness seemed low.
In his eyes, Broly was just a very hungry child, nothing more.
"I hope this child can grow up to have skills that match his appetite."
Since the boy was already part of the household, he couldn't be kicked out. Fujimura Raiga could only hope for the best.
Considering his granddaughter's fiery temper, which was much like his own, he worried she might never find a suitable partner.
[Huh?!]
The thought of having a child groomed as a future son-in-law lifted the spirits of Fuyuki City's underworld boss.

"Are you two going out later?" Fujimura Taiga asked.
"Yes, I'm planning to take her home," Broly said, pointing at young Sakura.
"She still has a home?"
As soon as Fujimura Taiga asked, she realized she had misspoken.
"That's not what I meant," she quickly explained to young Sakura, whose expression had fallen.
"I know, Fujimura-nee didn't mean any harm."
Young Sakura was a sensible child and understood her explanation.
"I plan to use force to take her home back," Broly said, clenching his small fist.
"Take it back from whom?"
"From her parents. If her parents don't want her, I'll beat them until they do."
Fujimura Taiga: "..."
She had only read about armed tax collection in history books, but she had never heard of using violence to reclaim a home.
This was certainly an eye-opener, coming from a child.
"I'll come with you."
As Broly and young Sakura prepared to leave, Fujimura Taiga grabbed her bamboo kendo sword from the dojo and decided to join them.
This kind of violent... ahem, charitable act of sending a girl home shouldn't be left to a poor fatherless child alone. Of course, she had to be part of it.
Fujimura Taiga didn't know the specifics of Sakura's situation, but she knew the girl had been abandoned by her parents.
This was unacceptable, and Fujimura Taiga wanted to confront those parents and give them a piece of her mind.

At the Tohsaka residence, a man in a priest's robe arrived.
"Kirei, you know why I called you here, right?"
"Yes, Teacher. You mentioned it when you sent your familiar. It's about your missing youngest daughter."
"Although Sakura was adopted by the Matou family and is no longer officially part of the Tohsaka family, she is still my daughter. I can't ignore the fact that she was taken by an unknown Servant."
The man in the red suit spoke. He was the current head of the Tohsaka family, the "King of Blame" in the Type-Moon world, and Sakura's biological father—Tohsaka Tokiomi.
