Chapter 31

Waking up, I found myself embraced with Lydia. I can tell it's early afternoon time. Must of at least slept 6 hours, enough to function for thr rest of the day. I wonder how the other 4 divisions are doing. And where the rest of the Jimmu army is. I get a knock on the door.

"It's open."

To my surprise, it's Yuna. She and the rest of the girls came back to Akiha after a few days in the capital. She see's Lydia hugging me.

"Someone has been busy, hehe."

"You can say that, haha."

I wake Lydia up and get out of bed to stretch out and light up a cigarette. I ask Yuna on how the capital is coming along. She told me that more people has started to show up from the teleportation room. My plan to help the homeless in Rommol must be a hit. Yuna noticed Lydia's tails and asked what happened. I'm not one to hide things from my first love in this world so I told her about that night and what happened late last night. She smiled.

"I'm happy you got Lydia on board with us, darling."

"What can I do, I'm just that damn good, hahaha."

I finish my cigarette and get ready for the rest of the day. I asked Yuna if Kagura is outside and if she is that I needed to talk to her. Yuna went and got Kagura.

"Kagura, where's your army?"

"Most are watching the western border of the kingdom while the ones on stand by were at their homes."

"Well, I found 500 of them at Naga and brought them back. I also found a large force of orcs. ogres, and demons last night a few hours away from here that had 200 women in cages. I killed the orcs, ogres, and demons including a main subordinate of the Dark Lord."

"Thank you my love."

"No problem. Let's get something to eat. I'm starved!"

The 4 of us head out of the room and downstairs to run into Michelle. I know we need to talk, it was nice timing to run into her so we can get a bite to eat and talk.

"Michelle, how are you?"

"I'm fine. Looks like you slept well."

"I did. So are you hungry?"

"A little."

"Follow me and these three ladies will introduce themselves to you along the way."

She follows me and the girls into the street as I look for a food vendor to stop at. Man, I miss Lerch's Donuts. That is what I could really go for right now. My girls introduce themselves to Michelle. Michelle wasn't surprised to learn that all 3 were my fiancés but the background of them was what drew the surprise.

"So Yuna, you're the princess of the Evergreen Kingdom of elves and of course I know Queen Kazami., Lydia being a former assassin threw me off." said Michelle.

"Well, there's more than just us 3." Yuna said smiling.

Michelle's face was in a state of shock as Yuna talked about the fiancés. I have a big harem and it will probably get bigger before I face the Dark Lord. Thinking about this fact has me worried. But I have to be a man about it and just keep going, hoping that I have the stamina to have such a harem, hahaha! Gulp!

I finally found a kabob food stall and get 5 kabob sticks.. I finish mine way before the others and ordered another one as the first one wasn't enough. I finished the second one just was the others finished theirs.

"That hit the spot! So Michelle, what did you want to talk to me about?" I asked while wiping my mouth.

"I just wanted to let you know how mush I appreciate you rescuing me and the other women late last night. We're all indebted to you for your bravery."

"You're not indebted to me. It's what I do. I have a mission to take down the Dark Lord and that also means his forces. But I do have a question. Before I found yall there, I had a bad feeling. Was you praying?"

"Yes, a few hours before you showed up I was."

I put 2 and 2 together and figured out that God was listening to Michelle's prayer. That old man! I'm glad that he helped me and her out but I didn't like the fact that he made me have a bad feeling. He could have texted or called.

"By the way, are you a priestess by chance?"

"Yes, how did you know?"

"You was giving of vibes of a priestess."

Which she was.

"What happened?"

"We were at the temple when the Dark Lord's forces attacked. All the men were killed, even the grand priest. I was awful. I saw some of them being eaten alive." She said with tears falling from her eyes. I hugged her.

"The world is cruel and brutal sometimes." I said while hugging her. Yuna, Lydia, and Kagura joined in on the hug.

"I was so scared, I started to pray when all of us was put into those cages. I prayed and prayed. Then you showed up and saved us." she continued.

"You did good, Michelle. The big guy upstairs heard your prayers and guided me to you and the rest of the women." I told her as she started to cry. I see the rest of my girls in the distance and they walked over to see what was going on before I held up my hand for them to stop and then told Lydia to go over there to explain what was going on.

"Thank god you came, Michael." Michelle said, still crying. After Lydia explained the situation to the others, they all came to join in on the hug. Just then, I see a soldier running towards me.

"My lord, the over divisions have returned. The report isn't good. All villages and the other town, Fiji, were razed. No men in the villages was left alive. Fiji has some survivor that fled into the forest a day before the Dark Lord's forces came. From what they said, the force was 8,000 strong with a demon in command."

"Well, I ran into that force late last night. They had 200 women held captive. I wiped them out and saved the captives. A temple was also razed my guy." I told him.

"Tell all soldiers to be on stand by.."

I was still holding Michelle, who was calming down finally. I look at all my girls who was looking at Michelle with concern. Michelle finally noticed the rest of my fiancés was standing around us and her face went red.

"I'm sorry, I didn't mean to lose my composure." Michelle said.

"It's ok." Iris reassured her.

Michelle introduced herself and the rest of my girls did the same. Michelle looked at me.

"Michael, I would like to hear your tail. Something tells me that you have been on this mission for a little while."

"Sure, let's go back to the inn."

All of us went back to the inn and I told her about my reincarnating into this world, meeting Yuna and Iris, the events in Rommol and the Evergreen capital, liberating the Jimmu capital, Akiha, and Naga. I told her how I met each of my girls. I showed her my weapons. When I showed her the golden handled sword, her eyes went wide.

"That can be!" she said surprisingly.

"Can be what?" I asked.

"Michael, that sword. It's the sword of light. The god sword."

"So this sword is suppose to be like Excalibur?"

"Not suppose. It is that sword."

"Wait, WHAT!" I yelled with a pale face.

I knew the stories about King Arthur and his sword. Hell, some of the rpgs I played in the past had this sword as the most powerful in their respected games. To think I got the sword from a shop in Rommol for free after being the only person to lift it off a display table, I knew my luck was WAY above normal.

"So, the only weapon that I have to kill a demon is a sword I got from winning a challenge in a shop. Talk about good luck. Heh heh." I joked.

"Yes."

"Well, I'll be damned."

After recovering for the shock about Excalibur being my sword. the 13 of us ate in the room at the inn and talked some more. I saw Yuna and Iris whisper something into Michelle's ear and it made Michelle blush. Those girls is expanding the harem again. They must like Michelle a lot. I saw that daylight was gone and not having to get a proper nights rest was starting to show. I went and laid down and was starting to fall asleep when I felt someone lay next to me and put her head on my chest. Who ever it was started to play with my chest hair. It felt nice and I relaxed to the point that I fell asleep.
