So some of you were calling the last chapter and asking me to switch worlds.

My answer is nope. ​​

Not gonna happen soon whether you like it or not.

My reasoning?

The characters aren't even fleshed out and you want me to introduce new ones?

Seriously...?

It's not even a hundred chapters, a fraction of the most popular EPIC.

Just shelf this book or leave it for a binge, idc. The stress of the new job is already too much, then some guy comments as if he owns me. That demanding tone pissed me off, really. Don't start that I can't take criticism... I am writing for fun, not for getting more stress.

Then there was this other guy asking for more milfs... The harem is already done for HoTD with one member left.

As for Grayfia, she will appear later.

Hope that answered your question.

[Shiori Busujima: Affection +4]

Shiori contracted Baal.

I wonder when Aimi will contract Beleth.

Shiori hugged my neck and stood on her toes, gazing into my eyes. "Asahi-kun."

Her sultry eyes made me chuckle. I cupped her cheeks and gave a long kiss on her lips, ignoring Leme and Baal's presence.

As we separated, Shiori giggled and pinched my nose. She's become a whole lot more affectionate now.

"Though I am happy that Asahi's bonds are strong, can you guys stop ignoring Leme?"

Shiori took a step back and bowed toward Baal. "I am grateful for your consideration."

Baal's indifferent expression cracked and his lips curled up. "No need to think further. My powers are yours to wield now."

Shiori nodded. Baal vanished into particles and entered her body.

"I need to hone the skills… Asahi-kun, I will be training in my room, tell me if you need me," She said with telepathy.

"Alright."

She left the room.

Leme poked at my ribs. "Ne Asahi, can you kiss Leme?"

I turned to the girl who acted so childish despite having the body of a woman in her early twenties. Honestly, it only added to her charm.

"Leme wants to strengthen the bond between us, so you can use more of Leme's authority."

I grinned. "I don't think I will need the other authorities anytime soon.

Out of four powers, Zekorbini, the pendant to cast instant spells was necessary since Diva directly created a connection with us without the interference of Astrum.

Telepathy was awesomely useful.

Ring of Solomon served no purpose with my dating sim features of Heavenly Path.

Gematria was the endgame thing. Besides who will power the dress of a guy like me.

Leme pouted. "You haven't said anything about the lies you told."

I blinked innocently. "I never said any lies."

"You were already powerful before meeting me and had the power to create even Enigmas on your own!"

I patted her head to calm her down, which she did in a few moments. "I said I wanted to protect my woman; it wasn't a lie."

"Urgh… you tricked Leme into the contract."

"You don't even care about anything other than making me the harem king."

"Creating a worthy harem king is Leme's purpose."

"Sorry, sorry, okay. I won't lie to you again."

She extended her pinky finger. "Promise?"

I laughed at the silly gesture and twined our pinkies. "Promise."

"Then Leme has one question."

"Go ahead."

She pushed my hand patting her head and formed a serious expression. "You are not from this world, right?"

I held myself from flinching and smiled. "What might you be referring to?"

"Your power to create anything has a vastly different nature compared to the magic powers Leme has seen in this world. And your body, you have a distinct scent compared to every man here. It's like you are a Diva or something higher."

Oh crap, she saw right through me. No need to hide anymore.

I let out a sigh. "Yes, you are right. I am not a person of this world. I hid it—"

She pressed a finger on my lips with a gentle smile. "Leme understands. She only wanted to test you. Leme already knew that you are not from this world when she first appeared. Asahi's magic power exceeds the strongest female Leme encountered. So please don't make a face like that, Leme will feel hurt…"

She… so she already knew my secret.

"Here, Leme will console her master with a hug."

She enveloped me in a tight hug, her boobs pressing on my chest. She only reached my shoulder after perking up on her toes.

"So I am your master now?"

"Umm, Leme likes Asahi."

[Lemegeton: Affection +100]

['Lemegeton' relationship changed to 'Her Master']

['Lemegeton' added to Partners list.]

What? Her affection points never popped up before, which I didn't notice.

(She opened her heart, so the Heavenly Path could detect her emotions. Your soul isn't strong enough to forcefully open a Diva's heart to gauge their feelings.)

'That strangely makes sense. Why didn't you remind me before?'

I wasn't relying on this system to conquer women. My past experience was enough.

(I am already helping you by giving you this system. You will be surrounded by a lot of women if I help you more.)

Was she... feeling jealous?

(No matter how perfect I am, I still have the heart of a woman… at least I think.)

'Klyscha, I love you.'

(Umu.)

"Asahi, don't lie to Leme ever. Leme hates when people get into a relationship with lies." She raised her head, her serious expression devoid of any goofiness still looking adorable. "Relationships built on falsity are the worst in Leme's opinion. Even if they bring happiness and joy, Leme dislikes it—"

I leaned over and blocked her mouth with a kiss. "I am sorry but I am not ready to tell them yet. I promise to confess everything when I am prepared to leave this world."

Whether the girls will accompany me to the other worlds or stay here—it will depend on their answer. I feel like an idiot for thinking this whole harem thingy will be easy. It could be if I just manipulated them till the end, but the mere thought disgusted me.

Another kiss from Leme brought me back to reality. Her sultry eyes blazed with passion, igniting the same fervour in my body.

She made my mind numb, reminding me of the first kiss I shared with a cold beauty in high school.

Her tongue slipped into my mouth and coiled around mine.

Fiery, passionate, demanding, her kiss deepened and I couldn't resist it.

What is this?

My hands crept on her body, touching her soft skin on their own.

I wasn't in control anymore as if she... brought out my true desires.

But the sensation of her slippery skin changed to a springy bounciness. Her boobs?

I squeezed them.

"Nn~." She bit my lips.

Fondling her boobs with one hand, my free hand crawled into her shorts.

No panties, eh.

I caressed her unprotected vulva a little wet from the arousal.

She ended the kiss and licked her lips, her droopy golden eyes boosting her charm to another level.

"Master, please do lewd things to Leme."

"I c—"

*Tap* *Tap* *Tap* Footsteps rang outside the room and a knock on the door followed soon.

"Aa-kun, lunch is ready."

"Awaah."

Leme fell backward in panic. I caught her hand and turned to the door. "Coming in a minute."

Shizuka, don't come inside.

Despite my complaints, the door slowly opened.
