Although faint, but I could hear the sound of something moving, and rough. There was also a warm sensation that hit my head, as well as my body that seemed to be enveloped.

My eyes opened slowly. A bright light penetrated the petals and managed to wake me up, well. Moreover, I could see some flickering light before my eyes.

“H-huh?”

I don't know why my hair immediately goosebumps because now right in front of my face there are two figures who look at me so intensely. My gulp and gulp repeatedly made me realize that this was not a dream.

That look, yes, there are four eyes that now look at me as if I was something strange. Because those eyes were glazed over.

Are they scared to see me?

Not long after that I could hear a sigh of relief and a warm familiar face.

“F-Fear?.. Then who are you? ”

"Finally you wake up too" he said, stroking my hair.

"And I'm Selina, your beautiful new wife. Don't be like that, honey. You're making me a little embarrassed" the blond-haired female with blue eyes like a pretty Sapphire.

"Then here is a man who wants to repay your kindness," continued the white-haired man with red eyes like thick blood.

At first I was confused, did I really have two wives? I remember I only had one wife.

Since when do I have two wives? Don't I just have a Fear. Then that guy?

“Basic...," said a woman named Selia while grabbing my right arm. Then he put it exactly like my left hand. The expression she showed was also very sweet and made me comfortable.

Uh... ehhhhhh?!!!

"Wait a minute, Oz?! What are you doing here?! And who

you?!"

When my consciousness began to recover, I could somehow end up inside an open horse cart with three people.

First was Fear, my wife, yes, we were bound by a sacred promise that made her my wife, but... Oz? Why is he here? Is he gonna kill me and Fear.

But wait a minute, didn't he just say he would return the favor? So then? I don't understand at all, what really happens when I'm unconscious?

Then who is this beautiful blonde woman, her face looks clear and so beautiful. Did she mention that she was my wife?

I was really shocked to hear his statement. After all since when did I exchange promises with him.Wait a minute, lest it happen when I was unconscious...

I sighed and cursed myself who became this depraved. I wish I hadn't done anything stupid back then. Yes, I can only hope and hope that doesn't happen.

"Reiss? Are you all right?" ask Fear while pressing both of my cheeks.

"How many days have I been unconscious?" I was nervous because I did not understand the current situation.

"Young master has been unconscious for two days"

"T-young master? I-i?"

At that time I could only be stunned for a moment before I could catch the true meaning of the word from the mouth of the man who had almost killed me.

In the meantime, he seemed calm like he didn't feel guilty or anything. Maybe this is just my feeling, but can his nature be friendly like this?

Then out of nowhere I could feel a soft, comfortable sensation that I couldn't even predict at all.

"Darling, it's only natural that you don't remember our vows. Because you were unconscious at the time and at that time I stole a kiss from your lips secretly" he explained, caressing my chin.

My hair immediately goosebumps.

A-a-what's quietly?

"Fear ...?"

Fear could only exhale with a slightly disappointed look on his face.

"She is Selina Ein Serfha, a princess of the earth. The one who healed all your wounds when you were unconscious" he explained resignedly.

The woman he mentioned now tilted her head at me and smiled sweetly.

"From now on take good care of me, my dear Reiss" he said, hugging me from the side.

"He ... ? Hehhhhhhh?!!!"

And at that time my mind imagined the torment every day given by the bodies of the two women who are now my wife. But, I quickly quickly disposed of. Fortunately I was in one piece.

With full clothes and undamaged pants. It was the short-sleeved white shirt that became my shirt now, but on both hands I was still tied with a white bandage.

“O-ok, okay. I understand, though I don't fully understand. What is this place anyway?" ask suddenly.

Selina began to sit as usual with the same calm as Fear.

"We are in the south of the Althesia Continent. Right now we are passing through the orange grove," Oz lightly replied.

Maybe that's true, because today a lot of trees that have orange fruit. Fresh air and clear skies. While Fear was humming slowly, I could only sleep on his lap. From here I can see

how Selina looks.

From the hair to the feet. I can admit his level is comparable to Fear. Fascinating and benevolent, that's what I saw from her pure eyes.

Looks like someone spilled blood not far from here.

"Slaughter..," I murmured softly.

Oz started to glance at me. For a moment I felt unsure of this feeling, but I had to confirm it with my own two eyes.

There's no other choice.

I immediately got off the wagon, even though my body condition had recovered. But, I should get back to getting used to it as soon as possible. Meanwhile both Fear and Selina directly followed me from behind.

Even Oz did the same. The two of them wondered to me what had just happened, but I just fell silent. I know Oz must have noticed it when he saw my face.

Because it's only the ones who look at me when I mutter something.

"What the hell is going on? It's not usually like this, Reiss."

Fear seems to be worried about me, but I can't stop. Let time and place answer it.

My face stiffened even more when I saw the puff of smoke, my running speed was quite fast and I finally arrived at that place. There were so many corpses lying covered with blood, the place I now went to was a large village.

My three traveling companions also seemed to be shocked when they saw him. Now the four of us are on the hillside where the smoke came from.

Just below me a corpse lay with a shattered face.

"Are you going to stay with me?" many spontaneous.

The faces of the three of them looked quite complicated to guess. But, the first person to say yes is Fear then followed up with Oz nods and caresses from Selina.

After that the four of us immediately glided from the top of this hillside towards that village. Tracing the narrow path where the wheat fields and rice crops are located. It looks like it's harvest season, but unfortunately their village is under attack.

But that thought soon I got over.

"Don't hold back on yourselves" I said, jumping randomly into the village and directly through each place.

Oz smiled with excitement and he pulled out his sword quickly. With a silver sword of his own he looked so happy. A cold that is considerate yet harbors a very extreme sadistic nature.

Selina and Fear can only smile and join me. The two of them split up and each cast a different magic. Selina with radar magic and her onslaught.

While Fear with restraint magic and healing magic is very fast. In the riots Oz enjoyed every time he slashed his enemy, the shrill screams of a sign that his slash was so great.

The blood was studded like crumbs that an old grandmother accidentally dropped on a park bench. So crowded the street that I was now walking on and an attack suddenly shot towards my head.

But I was able to avoid it by looking down quickly, an axe apparently that floated while circling. Now my eyes were distracted by two pale green creatures that were quite full and also quite muscular.

Brands are Ogre and also medium-sized Trolls. Ogre with his fairly large wooden weapon and a medium Troll with his fast little knife. The troll directly hit me with a quick sideways incision.

I jumped dodging it and a wooden blow greeted me after I managed to dodge the Troll's attack. Since I just recovered, I actually don't want to push myself.

A swift, sideways spinning motion and now the great Ogre attack was missed. Just smashing the ground where the weapon landed, using the pause I kicked his right eardrum hard.

He flinched and finally fell, and I quickly moved closer to him. The ugly creature floated a jab with a sharp weapon that shot right into my face again. I jumped back avoiding it and immediately kicked her stomach with the heel of my right foot.

His body lowered, as well as dropping his weapon. Not giving it a breath, I immediately jumped to back it, and ended it with a fatal attack.

Thanks to a great kick on the side of his head. The Troll's head turned rapidly. Not long after that the blood came out slowly from his nose and mouth.

While the gun that was lying down I took it and immediately shot towards his big friend. Fast-moving and destroying enemies is like a tremendous atomic blast. The little sword I took from the dead Troll was now lodged in the Ogre's chest.

His eyes were red looking like anger. He also directly hit the giant wood towards me. Once again I lowered my head to avoid it, but my little knife attack had not been able to make it fall completely.

So I jumped fast and threw a spinning kick to deepen the little knife that was now lodged in his chest. A splash of blood came out from his mouth that was surly green, he was bowed, and finally died of blood from his chest and mouth.

A sobbing sound rang out from the rundown house ahead there. I immediately ran to check it, as soon as I destroyed the door. I could clearly see that there were three little children sitting around holding their lutu shakily.

Right in front of them was a creature carrying a giant scythe. Before he hit them, I kicked him in the leg until he floated for a second.

After that I snapped his heart using the knee of the right leg. Like an invisible sharp-edged knife, my elbow managed to knock him down with a surprising effect, as a result he fell down violently along with his giant sickle.

He tried to crawl to save himself and he managed to get out of the house.

"Wait a minute, I'll take care of it first" I said kindly.

I took the giant scythe he left behind. Then chasing after him, before completely finishing him off, I first stepped on his calf legs firmly.

I could hear a painful scream coming out of his mouth, like a man asking for forgiveness. Unfortunately, he was wrong to ask me for forgiveness. With both of my eyes empty, a single swing from the huge scythe managed to chop off his head smoothly.

Roll over leaving a trail of fresh blood, the head revealed a hysterical look I had never seen before. But, in order not to frighten the three children, I immediately burned his head and body with fire magic.

When everything had been charred to ashes and disappeared from being blown away by the wind. I went back to those three kids.

At first they hesitated to grab my hand, but the dull pink-haired little lady who was quite friendly reached out to me with her tiny hand first. It seems like he is their brother.

Not long after that, the other two children grabbed my hand. I wondered at him while holding his little arm. While the other two squeezed my black pants with a slight tremble.

From the information I got from them is; they are orphans who have not been adopted at all. The little boy who now holds my right hand is Irina, the 8-year-old's biggest.

The one who squeezed his shirt and followed him from behind was 6.5-year-old Regin. The one holding my left hand is 7.5-year-old Aresya. After the fight was over, unfortunately I could not save the rest of the villagers.

But at least I managed to save these three children in time. Fear, Selina and Oz had been waiting for me right in the middle of the village and how shocked they saw me carrying three children who looked trembling.

I proposed to adopt them, Fear and Selina did not agree with that but Oz just nodded slowly without rejection and he agreed.

"Then I'll take care of the three of them and for the both of you to leave it with me."

With my mischievous attitude, I teased the two of them and bingo their faces looked irritated. In the end they also accepted them even though the look on their faces looked irritated. I also asked Fear and Selina to heal their wounds.

Seen and unseen, and we all went back to the horse-drawn cart in the orange grove that Oz had tied up before.

The days passed quickly, we became more and more familiar and the four of us trained them with magic abilities as well as fighting abilities. Irina and Aresya are proficient in the field of fast and coordinated attack magic.

As for Regin he was not reliable in any case but he was the best at using large-scale magic.

Years have passed, we all spent that precious time laughing and joking. We also discovered the pearl of immortality when exploring a beautiful stalactite cave.

At first I didn't understand about it and just as soon as I swallowed it, they all also imitated me by swallowing it afterwards and right after that they smiled a little with cheerful faces. Knowing they'll always be with me forever.

But actually that's not what I do....
