A few days passed after that visit.
People from the Scarlet Flake Kingdom worked diligently. The higher-ups and knowledgeable people also inspected the portal's origins and their magic's base scripts. It was an exciting topic that left them sleepless, and they all skipped a few nights already.
Reylin leveled up in the dungeons and practiced his flame skills here. He casually used his Flame Artist amidst the dungeon walls, which wouldn't surprise people anymore.
Knowing that Aria was doing an important quest, Reylin chatted with others, and he genuinely lived the best life.
For his future as a father, Reylin opened himself more to people and enjoyed life much differently than before. He paid attention to even little things, wanting to know many things about the world, relationships, friends, and others.
"Kids ask a lot of questions, huh..." Reylin whispered as he thought about his changes.
He hardly noticed those, so others pointed it out for him.
At one point, however, Lioness sent him the message.
[Lioness: Let's have a talk on Earth.]
That message was sudden, leaving Reylin curious. He didn't think much of it, but perhaps his girlfriend found a clue to one of their problems?
That would be great, and Reylin quickly cleared up the dungeon before leaving the Faynom World.
Back on Earth, he took off his VR Helmet.
Aria never returned to her house ever since she brought her stuff to Reylin's apartment. It was moving to see how it would be to live with him.
And it was indeed the best time Aria ever had.
Reylin also ended school already, and he was wholeheartedly focused on the game world without anyone bothering him from real life.
That was why, after some time of such lifestyle passed, Lioness decided for a serious talk!
"Do you want something to drink?" Aria asked as she noticed Reylin coming out of their room.
She smiled at him as usual, but Reylin naturally spotted a slight difference in her demeanor. A serious mood swirled around her, making the whole conversation rather stiff.
Fortunately, Reylin never hides anything from her.
Instead, he avoided awkward or bothersome subjects by just not bringing them up or making different moves.
One of those was naturally harem. He introduced other girls to Aria, which was enough to avoid that talk for some time.
Well, Aria noticed it from the beginning.
"The game world is real... At one point, we can expect the two worlds to become connected. At that point, you will already be the father of a big kid..." Aria said with her eyes closed.
Those words sounded casual without any sadness or emotion, but Reylin felt frightened of her following words.
He rarely got scared, but there was a chance Aria would propose to break up! With so many events going on, he had neglected their relationship.
Reylin wouldn't be able to refute her should she bring it out...
"You look bad... Don't you look forward to your kid? You and Layla will be good parents," Aria chuckled.
"We will be..." Reylin replied belatedly.
His girlfriend faintly smiled, then said, "If I told you to give up on them and just be with me, would you do it?"
Reylin's eyes widened, and he trembled visibly to the naked eye, "I wouldn't. I will make everyone happy. You, Layla, Emilia, and also Maya. Once I save her, I will respond to her feelings and make all of you the happiest girls in the world.
In both worlds," Reylin said with confidence.
Lioness raised her eyes at him, then stood up, "I am not interested in that kind of relationship. If that game was still a game, then it would be fine. But we are talking about real women, real feelings, and the far future.
I don't want to work hard knowing that my man is the harem protagonist, and he spends every arc with some woman," Lioness said, then went to their room.
It looked like she would pack her stuff, so Reylin's heart skipped a beat, and he extended his hand to stop her.
He held her wrist tightly, then embraced from behind, "I will find a way..."
"Let me go," Lioness said with a sharp voice.
Alas, Reylin held her tigther.
Harem was unfair, and Reylin wasn't delusional enough to believe it wasn't. He later realized his love for Layla and Emilia because he treated polygamy carelessly. It was a game, wasn't it?
But Reylin believed he could share his heart with all ladies and accept them back.
"I introduced you to Layla and Emilia because I wanted you to become friends with them... Perhaps, I should've told you about the game world being real much earlier... I could've done much better things... Until recently, I was still a spoiled brat from a wealthy family... I am not gonna blame anyone but myself... But I want you to know that I love you. I love the challenging Lioness, and I never wanted to hurt you," Reylin whispered.
"If you still don't want me to hold you, bite me," he added.
"Bite you? I might catch more of your craziness, idiot," Aria smiled widely, not moving an inch within Reylin's embrace.
She had her eyes widely open, but memories from the past flashed within her irises. All those memories were good, and the whole atmosphere with other girls was likewise good. They were all a big family already, weren't they?
Her heart melted, and she bit her lips instead, "What would you do if I bit you?"
"I would pester you daily. Even in my battle with King Julian, I would make sure to send you some messages. I would do it until you punched my face," Reylin whispered.
Aria laughed, "I would punch you on the first day."
"And I would avoid," Reylin chuckled with his face in her hair...
An unknown amount of time passed in silence and tight embrace.
At last, Aria's heart subsided, and she whispered, "I have to be the first one to marry you."
"Got it," Reylin immediately replied.
"You have to knock me up after we save Maya," Aria added another rule.
"Got it," Reylin replied even faster.
"And you must make sure to get Maya. I don't want to be the only one from Earth in your harem," Aria left the last wish, then turned around, "I probably would've stopped indoors cause I've fallen too much for you, you know?"
"..." Reylin didn't reply, and he just stared at her pretty face.
"But that was a burden I needed to take care with... Now, I will complete the last quest from the Lion King," Aria's feelings were stopping her from the significant evolution.
She knew that it was no longer the game, and those feelings became much more bothersome as time passed.
Now, the heart was good for whatever the future held for her!
"Prepare me for the challenge, handsome boy," Aria chuckled and pulled Reylin straight to their room by his collar!
A hot night followed that event!
Reylin didn't let his lust control that night, however. He knew that Aria was putting a solid front for him, so he tenderly took care of his girlfriend.
And that night steeled their bond even more.
Please report us if you find any errors so we can fix it asap!
