"So now… I guess it's time to make a contract with you. Are you prepared?" I asked Shelia.

I wanted her to be my contracted monster because of her strength, you know? Not about her becoming my partner. Well, she will be my partner in the end, but not as lover. Should I fix the misunderstanding?

"I am prepared. What should I do?" Shelia asked.

"Well, first, I need to fix the misunderstanding. What I meant by saying I was to be a partner in battle. I will summon you to fight with me and probably for other needs as well." I tried to fix the misunderstanding.

"Other needs!?" Shelia was shocked when she heard that.

"Oh, my! Roy is such a sinful man!" Candy teased me.

"Wait, no! Other needs as in adapting yourself to my world! Not that 'other' other needs!"

Why isn't anyone helping me fix the misunderstanding? I might end up getting them a new sister!

"You see Victoria there? She's my contracted monster. You can just treat me like usual, and I will have you help me in many ways whenever I summon you." I said. But it seems like Victoria heard me.

"But I'm also his lover as well. I'm both his contracted monster and his lover. So, you might be both as well." Victoria said.

"You're not helping!"

"So, you want me to be your lover as well? That's fine! I'll accept everything the king says!" Shelia said.

"And you're not listening! I mean… Aaargh! Lina, summon Sunny!"

Since I don't know what to say, I can only show Shelia an example about master and summon relationships.

"I understand. Sunny!"

Lina summoned Sunny, and Sunny appears in front of her. Then Lina lifted Sunny up.

Now that I think about it, I need Sunny to fight a bit more so Lina can reach intermediate level and contract another monster. Does she have any interest in contracting a Werewolf? I'll ask her later.

"See, basically, you will be similar to Sunny there. You don't have to be a lover." I said as I pointed my finger to Sunny who is being carried by Lina. Realizing that I'm using her as an example, Sunny danced and waved her leaves at me and Shelia.

But another person interjected.

"Oh, Roy! You just complimenting Shelia by saying she's as pretty as a flower! Such a sinful man my boyfriend is!" It was Kayla's turn to tease me.

"Wait, no! That was not- I mean I…"

"Thank you! It's the first time someone said I'm pretty like a flower! I'm so happy!"

Why are you blushing, Shelia! And why are all my girlfriends trying to push you onto me so bad!? It feels like everything has been orchestrated well. Who's the one responsible for this!? And although she's a sunflower, Sunny is still a monster!

"I mean Shelia will be my summon, similar to how Sunny is Lina's summon! And you're not listening!"

"Being called pretty like flower… I feel so happy!"

You're misunderstanding!

"Good for you, Shelia!"

It's your fault, Kayla!

"Must be nice being told like that."

I didn't say it like that, Candy! But why is everyone thought of it that way?

"Now we need to arrange the order of the girls who will sleep with him."

Why are you involved in this, Sophie? Don't tell me that it's your fault!

"He also told me that I'm such a babe before! I feel so good listening to his praises!"

…Victoria, you can shapeshift yourself into whatever babe you want.

And then Albert tapped my shoulder.

"Must be nice being so young and have so many girlfriends." Albert said.

"Are you involved with them in any way?" I asked.

"No. But after Kayla woke up, your girlfriends seem to be discussing something. Somehow… they seem to be able to work well together. Must be nice to have a harem of good girls."

"I'll tell Marie that you wish for a harem."

"That's not what I said!"

Now he will understand my feeling a bit.

Getting a new girlfriend already? What are they thinking?

"Roy, they are actually worried about you." It was Sonia who suddenly appears next to me who said it.

"Worried? What did I do to make them worried? I'm doing things the same way as before though."

"Yes, you did. But it's the first time they realize how close you have always been to death. They never see you that way before, right? At most is that you're injured and asked Kayla for a healing."

Well, Sonia is right. And the last time I injured myself badly was a long time ago when I first defeated the All-seeing Eye. I almost lost my hand. Then I stitch it back together and asked Kayla to heal me.

But I don't think that Victoria would suggest this idea. That means it was all either Sophie's idea or Kayla's to get me together with Shelia. I doubt it's Candy's idea since with her job as an agent, she must have been close to death before.

"So, it's either Sophie's idea or Kayla's, right? Why would they do this? Being close to death and getting a new girlfriend is totally unrelated."

"Actually, it was Candy's."

"What!? Shouldn't she has experienced being close to death before?"

I was shocked by Sonia's reply.

"The girls are discussing about what they need to do to help you. No one can help you to get stronger since you fight differently from others. Well, other than Victoria that is. As for the others, they want to help you so you will not be dying again. So, they proposed an idea that you always said. To gain more allies. But none of them are good at making friends. There might be some men who wanted to help them, but they all will have some ulterior motives, so they choose to not looking for mor allies. That's why Candy proposed to help you get as many girlfriends as possible. Any woman who is close to you, the girls will try to get them be your girlfriends. That way, they will have more people protecting you."

"Trying to get me more girlfriends to support me? That doesn't make any sense at all! But I will support their decision!" I said.

"…you just want to be a harem king, right?"

"Says the harem queen. At least I'm not using my charm magic. Though I still don't understand what kind of charm I give that they are attracted to. Well, other than I'm handsome, a good listener, able to say cheesy lines, strong enough to give them a sense of security, handsome, rich, and handsome."

"…you just said handsome three times. Though I'll give you credit for one. The one that give the girls a sense of security. I think that's what make them decided to be your girlfriends. I don't know about Victoria though. And maybe there is someone who fell in love with you thanks to your cheesy lines."

Victoria… my guess is that I'm similar to her favorite fictional character in her world. That's my best guess.

"Well, since it has come to this, will you be both my girlfriend and contracted monster then, Shelia?" I asked Shelia who is still chatting with the girls.

Since it's what the girls want, I'll take her in! But I'm getting more confused as to why it became so easy for me to get more girlfriends. And I haven't sleep with all of them yet. Maybe soon.

"Sure! You're the king after all. And we Werewolves follow the king's order."

Shelia said that as if I'm forced her to be my girlfriend. Though that's not the case when her face is as red as a tomato. And I will make sure she will dress herself better instead of that bikini clothes when she's in human world!

"Alright then, with your permission, I'll make a contract with you. 'Contract'!"

Thanks to the ghost and the slime, I get an idea to how to use contract magic. It's similar to how tamer do it. Though somehow, I can only use it to a monster from the Monsters World, while they can only use them to monsters in human world.

I just need to use magic normally while imagining that I'm connected to Shelia, then say the word 'Contract'.

After saying the word, there's a string of light connecting me to Shelia. I can faintly sense a string connecting me with Victoria as well.

After that, the string disappears and I can feel my connection with Shelia. It's done.

"That's it?" Angela who is curious about contract magic asked.

"That might be so. I have witnessed a tamer casting contract before, and it's over just like that." Candy said.

"Finally! Now let's go home! But before that…"

I approached Lina. Since everyone wanted me to get more girlfriends, it's okay, right? And I'm not dense enough to not notice her feeling. Though it's weird how it ends up this way just after showering her with praises.

"Lina, will you be my girlfriend?"

"Yes! Finally! I have been waiting for this day ever since I decided to be your maid!" Lina looks so happy. And so are the girls. While Albert is burning with jealousy. Wait! Mustache as well! Well, whatever. Albert already has a wife. As for Mustache, I don't care about him.

"Master! To be able to seduce two women in one day! As expected from my Master!" Jewel said. It's a surprise that she's not loud.

I heard someone whispered. It was Shirley and Albert.

"Brother. I think I just saw something weird happened."

"Me too, sister."

"And I see that you're jealous of Roy as well. Should I tell Marie?"

"Don't!"

Just a siblings' quarrel. I let them be.

"Well, since our business here is over, let's go back. Shelia, you come with us as well. As for the other Werewolves, good luck in getting stronger! I'll visit you soon!"

And that's how I ended up getting my second summon, and two more girlfriends. What a day…
