Chapter 68: Chapter 68: Surprising reaction

Seeing Lorien looking in a certain direction for a long time, Nezuko also turned to see what he was looking at

Noticing that it was Saigai, surprisingly she didn't freak out but shook her head slightly towards her as the latter responded with a small nod, then Nezuko turned to Lorien again and said

"I'll be going then!"

But after taking a couple of steps, she said before running away

"Don't forget the agreement!"

Seeing this, Lorien turned his attention to Saigai and started walking toward her

"Heyyy∼∼"

"Hi!"

After saying this, the atmosphere suddenly turned awkward as none of them said anything for a while

But after gritting his teeth, Lorien finally spoke

"Soo, are you angry?"

But surprisingly, Saifai didn't react violently as Lorien had expected, She actually just shook her head and responded calmly with a smile

"No, I am not"

"Really?"

"Yes"

Lorien could clearly feel that she wasn't lying, so he fell silent trying to understand what was happening, but then, he suddenly remembered the interacting Nezuko and Saigai just had

Recalling it, He raised his head quickly and looked at Saigai in astonishment

"Was it you?"

"What?"

"You know...Nezuko"

Falling silent for a moment, Saigai finally nodded confirming his guess

"But why?"

This greatly shocked Lorien, he never anticipated this from her

"Why Nezuko? Well...She is immortal and the only ones with similar lifespans to her are us, so it's not like she has a lot of options, moreover, after her appearance changed to that of an adult I can see that you..."

But before she could finish, Lorien interrupted her

"No! No! No! That's not what I am talking about!"

"OH! You meant why I am helping you pick up girls?"

"...yes"

Giving off a long sigh, Saigai sat down at one of the chairs next to her and started explaining

"It's because I am not stupid"

It seems that she also understood that she was not being clear enough so she continued

"I can clearly see that you are very interested in beautiful girls...I mean, the main reason you decided to save me at the start was exactly that, am right?"

"I..."

But before Lorien could say anything she continued with a radiant smile on her face

"Which is completely normal, all men are like that...possessive"

"Moreover, I don't regret any of it, I am very happy you took me in, without you I would have probably died or found myself somewhere in the entertainment district, and I am very grateful for that, not to mention that with time...I grew to love you!"

"So, when I noticed that you want to have many wives, I felt uneasy, uncomfortable, and very confused, I even wanted to silently kill those girls at one point.."

"But frankly I was faced with only two true choices, either try my best to prevent you, or ignore it and let things develop naturally "

"I didn't particularly like it, I mean what woman would like to see her husband with another woman, but sadly, I still understand that...it is normal"

Only when she said this did Lorien remember that polygamy was still legal in Japan at this time and many rich people still practice it

Actually it wasn't only this time period, but even in modern times, there still exist countries that openly allow it, as for secretly...it is a worldwide thing, especially for rich people

"I don't want to strain my relationship with you because of this, so trying to stop you won't do, not to mention that I most likely won't be able to do it even if I tried"

"So with that choice out, only ignoring it is left, but...sigh"

"You know...When I first discovered this, I felt powerless and really afraid...afraid that you'll eventually forget and abandon me"

As she said this, She lowered her head looking very downcast

"No, No! I would never!"

Seeing this, Lorien quickly ran towards her and hugged her tightly

This hug lasted for a while before Saigai finally pushed him away lightly, feeling this, he sat next to her but still held her hand

"Anyhow, After a lot of thought I decided to help you, after all, you are really bad at this..."

Saying this she started laughing at him while whipping some of the tears in her eyes

"Me? Bad at this? What do you mean?"

Seeing him so clueless, she rolled her eyes and said

"How is it going with Shinobu?"

"Huh?!! How?"

"How do I know that you are interested in her? It's obvious!"

"But honestly, you are really bad at this, Even though I can clearly see that you are interested in her, you still went nowhere with it, god knows how long it'll take if you keep going like this!"

"It's not like I am complaining...I hope you don't improve in this aspect!"

"GOD, why am I even helping you? If I left you alone you probably won't go anywhere..."

"Sigh...Whatever..."

"Oh! By the way, You should thank me! I helped you convince her to move to this town, I made things easier for you!"

"That was also you??!"

"What? Do you think she magicaly decided to relocate here?"

Looking at Saigai like this, Lorien really didn't know what to say to her

Feeling mentally fatigued, He just hugged her and whispered

"am sorry..."

Hugging him back, She closed her eyes and smiled

'I...just want to help you...'

But this phrase wasn't uttered out loud, only she could hear it

Following this, Lorien continued to chat with her for a while before finally, Saigai left to go for her usual 'Walk' to absorb energy

Looking at her leaving back, Lorien wiped out the inexistent sweat from his forehead and heaved a sigh of relief

'God, that was weird! But thankfully things went well'

'I never expected her to react like that! and to think she would go that far to help me...I really can't understand what she was thinking about when she decided to do it...'

'Sigh...My wife is now my wingman...What a weird world I live in...'

Looking at closeby Dream tree, Lorien shook his head and entered the house

When he earlier came to the backyard, He was planning to absorb the dream energy received from all the different towns and then he was intending to start perfecting the seeds of [Immortality] & [Ability]

But things never go as planned, first, it was Nezuko, and then it was Saigai

'I'll come back at night...I just want to sleep now'
