My Second Life in Another World

Chapter 179: It Didn't Work

"My Lord is there a reason you told us about this today?" Queresha asked with a tense expression.

"The reason I told this to you guys today was because I thought that I was ready to share this thing with you guys, although it took me some time so that I can confirm some things, But even if I was not the same person that Jin-ah grew up with, I still fell in love with her and I won't give up on her," Haru said with a smile.

"O-Oh, I love you so much," Jin-ah said and hugged Haru tightly rubbing her face on his chest.

"H-How can you say words like that," Kanae was blushing with an angered look on her face.

"I wonder so at times as well," Hae-in sighed heavily while Queresha stayed silent.

[Be glad you are the protagonist, that is the only reason this is working.] Kurumi said with a deadpan look and Haru smiled wryly. "Yes, I would be staying away from if you weren't Haru," Jin-ah said as Haru pulled her cheeks with a pout.

"Oh yes, Haru who is this fox?" Kanae asked as her eyes were glued to Kurumi. She wanted to ask this for a while but the topic didn't allow her.

"Oh, this is k-"

[I am Kurumi, Haru's first WIFE,] Kurumi declared while cutting off Haru.

"…" The room was silent as everyone in the room looked at Kurumi who had a proud look on her face while Haru just sighed helplessly.

"WHHHHHAAAAAAAATTTTTTTTT?" Kanae, Hae-in, and Jin-ah shouted while Queresha sighed.

The night was bound to be chaotic today.

***

Currently in the audience hall of a large castle which was decorated with golden ornaments and silver flags that were hanging from the high ceiling supported by the smooth white pillars.

The gates to the audience room opened and the man who ran away from Haru walked on the soft red carpet at a quick pace.

He stopped and kneeled when he reached the deepest part of the audience room which had a throne on an elevated platform.

"Why did you come in a hurry Windsom? And why are you so anxious?" The man who was sitting on the throne asked in a static tone. The man had silvery cream-colored hair that was neither long nor short with purple eyes, and a calm, almost placid demeanor, he can be said to be very attractive by human standards.

"I have urgent news, My lord," Windsom said.

"Did you find the mana beast?" The man asked with some happiness in his eyes.

"No my lord, the Mana beast you asked me to bring here wasn't anywhere to be found after the fire died down and it was difficult for us to approach the place to investigate, But we are still on the lookout," Windsom said.

"Then did you find my granddaughter?" The man's happiness went away as he asked.

"No My lord but I am still trying my best, before long I will be able to find my lord's granddaughter," Windsom answered.

"Then why are you here?" The man asked as he looked at Windsom.

"...I Think I encountered a powerful person," Windsom said.

"Hmm, how powerful can someone from the lesser race be?" The man asked.

"...That person was able to sneak up on me without me even noticing," Windsom said as his face scrunched up in displeasure.

"Did you become too lax because you were in the lesser race's continent?" The man said with a static tone but his eyes were cold.

"N-No My Lord, I just didn't expect a lesser to be this fast, I saw him come out of that girl Zenobia's house a few times, so it piqued my interest in him, But after he showed that speed I didn't want to risk anything and, came back to report immediately," Windsom said quickly.

"Hmm, Interesting but I don't think a lesser has that type of capability on top of that this lesser knows that girl as well….. can you bring him here? Maybe with him, we can influence that girl to side with us before that Argona makes his move," The man asked while tapping the armrest of his chair. It was clear that he didn't want a strong pawn to end up in his enemy's hands.

"I can bring him here, I will be more careful this time. I have his weakness as well," Windsom said as he remembered the two women that person was with.

"It is good that you are confident, but focus on finding my granddaughter deal with that lesser later, you are dismissed," The man said and Windsom walked out of the room.

"Even if I have to see this world burn, I won't let it go your way Argona," The man spoke solemnly as he closed his eyes.

Xyrus City,

The living room of Haru's house had a tense atmosphere as Hae-in, Jin-ah, and Kanae started at the fox in front of them with narrowed eyes while Queresha just stayed silent.

"Well now that Haru isn't here we can start the real talk," Kurumi said in a serious tone. Hearing her words all four in the room nodded.

"I am the first wife," Kurumi said again making everyone blink in confusion.

"Weren't we going to talk about something serious?" Jin-ah asked in confusion.

"This is S-E-R-I-O-U-S," Kurumi said as if it was the main issue, this gave the four a headache.

"Well, it doesn't really matter to us which one is the first wife, but why are you so adamant on that?" Hae-in asked.

"Hmph, of course, I am going to be, I have lived with him since he was born in the original world, how many times do think I thought about 'Our' first time, But since I couldn't be his first, I am going to be the first wife that is something I am not giving up on," Kurumi spoke angrily but in her fox form she looked anything but angry.

'Cute,' The four thought as they looked at the little fox whine angrily with its violently moving tails and twitching ears.

"Yes that is something I am angry about as well, I was with Haru since childhood and Hae-in unnie just stole the march," Jin-ah said as Kanae muttered 'Perverts' with a red face.

"Are we really going there now?" Hae-in sighed it wasn't her intention things just happened.

"Now now, we have already talked about it before right? Something like order isn't a thing for us," Queresha said while trying to calm down the others.

"Oh stop the modest act, You had quite the 'eventful' afternoon when Haru returned back," Kurumi rolled her eyes as Queresha coughed in embarrassment.

"Queresha Unnie I didn't expect this," Jin-ah spoke with a betrayed expression.

"Damn perverts," Kanae spoke with a blush.

"Well, let's not point fingers here," Hae-in spoke.

"Of course, you would say that you had your fun when others were busy packing, in the bathroom no less," Kurumi rolled her eyes while Jin-ah pouted.

"Is that why Haru took longer in the bath?" Kanae asked with a frown.

'Why do you know that?' Hae-in, Jin-ah, and Queresha were shocked as Kurumi just rolled her eyes.

'That damn incubus why doesn't he come after me? Wait! What am I thinking? NO! NO! NO! NO!' Kanae's face just got redder.

It took everyone a bit of time to calm down.

"Ok now let's talk seriously, Ms. Kurumi can we ask you questions?" Queresha asked.

"Sure go ahead, I am only doing this because it will help Haru," Kurumi said plainly.

"Why did you guys seal his powers?" Hae-in asked a question that was on their minds, Hae-in chose to ask Kurumi since Haru himself didn't know about it.

"Sigh* the reason for that is his powers, you know his parents are gods right?" Kurumi asked and the four nodded.

"The powers he got were more than his body could hold, So his father sealed it before it could damage him further because if he didn't it would have consumed Haru completely," Kurumi spoke calmly.

"But aren't they gods? Can't they do something about it?" Jin-ah asked while tilting her head.

"If only they could, You see his flames are way stronger than even his mother, Who is known as the 'Origin of flames' she is one of the strongest, aside from me that is but even Akane suffered heavy injuries trying to help Haru control his fire, There were other ways but there were many risks in the process if they tried to help Haru, And coupled with Akane's overprotective nature she wouldn't take any risk when it came to him, So they chose the safest option," Kurumi said.

"That was to seal My Lord's powers? Looks like it worked," Queresha sighed heavily.

"No it didn't work," Kurumi said shocking the room.
