Three beautiful girls with their own different beauties.

Celline Suzuki, the girl with blonde hair and big boobs, a super-rich Ojou-sama type of girl.

Gerta Scarlet, a beautiful girl that looked like she just came out of an isekai. She has a brown muscular body with red hair. It seems she was insecure about her own body and should be the weakest to attack amongst the three.

Mirajane silk, a quiet and refined-looking girl that was actually sexually frustrated, she has white hair and pretty moderate boobs. A typical looking honor student in university.

All three of them has some feeling toward Ethan, but from what Ray has seen, it seems Ethan didn't do a pretty good job managing his harem.

This simp was too focused on Aiko that he forgot about the three beautiful girls next to him.

Not that Ray cared too much though, right now is the celebration ball, and if it would happen like in the game, the antagonist would soon appear and clashed with Ethan.

Ray should just wait for the right timing and dealt damage to the two sides quietly.

Ray activated the title side character to the bone and continued his stroll with Kyouko. Know your enemies, and you will win the battle. That was what Ray always thought to himself during his ever clash with the protagonists.

With that, Ray finished circling around the ball's venue, and take note of some antagonists and protagonists that could be his cannon fodder in the future.

The most interesting thing he had seen during his stroll was that one of the antagonists was a thief, and he came here to steal a piece of jewelry that was supposed to be displayed in this birthday ball celebration.

' Hehe, if I am not wrong, the plot in this event should be the thief was able to steal the jewelry in front of everyone here, and the protagonist would be the one to recover this jewelry in front of everyone, gaining the attention of the top brass in this city."

Ray knew he must prevent this from happening. If Ethan could get the recognition of top brass in this city, it would just make it harder for him to drag Ethan down.

A plan was quickly devised on Ray's mind, Strike when it is the most unexpected. That was Ray's plan for today.

*****

Soon, the celebration ball began. The party started with some words from the Maple-leaf city major. Everything was the standard template of what politicians would say in Ray's old world, and Ray didn't really intend to listen to it. Thank the people for attending his birthday, a speech of longevity, and wishing for Maple-leaf city to grow better, blablabla...

After the opening speech, the celebration ball started. Dancers came on the stage, and food started to be served for the guest.

The people also started to group up one with another. The riches people talk for business, and some young master began their hunt on beauties to latch their claws upon. Even that Richard started to advertise his cosmetic product and told everyone that it was made with the best spiritual plant to ensure its quality.

Of course, Ray and Kyouko also didn't want to lose. Kyouko introduced Ray to some of her business partners, and most of them were astounded by Ray's handsome looks, especially for the beautiful madams.

" Hey, Kyouko, how about lending this lover of yours to me for one night? I'll give you an extra percentage on our future business."

" Humph, wasn't you the one that told me to look for a younger lover like yours? Why are you now suddenly eyeing up my lovers?"

" Hehe, mine wasn't as good as yours, and seeing his good body, he must be pretty good in bed as well."

Their conversation quickly switched from business into sex life and back into the business again, making Ray's head unable to keep up with the talks of mature businesswomen.

Fortunately, their conversation didn't last long. Just when Ray was thinking about getting away from the mature women, the Maple-leaf city major came on the stage and took everyone's attention once again.

He clapped the mic twice to make sure that it's work and started talking.

" Ladies and gentlemen, thank you for coming to this old man's birthday banquet. This old man may not be able to give much, but for today's celebration, this old man will bring the best thing that he has."

After the speeches, a group of people came up to the stage, bringing a big box that was covered by a curtain.

" Now open your eyes and see, for this old man, there's nothing else he likes more than a talented youth! Everyone under the age of twenty-eight can came forward once and displayed their talent. The one that could best satisfy this old man, he will receive this thing."

The curtain was uplifted, and from behind, a beautiful and sparkling diamond was revealed.

Ray wasn't really familiar with the value of jewelry, but looking at the gasped face of every other audience aside from him, he could conclude it should be something really precious.

" This beautiful diamond is said to be the heart of a legendary magical in the past. When he died, his heart refused to stop beating, and therefore this diamond was formed. It was just a beautiful ornament before. However, after the era of awakening, it was revealed that this diamond could double the speed of a spirit beast cultivation."

*Clatters and noises from the audience*

" Whoaa, that thing is really good, the Maple-leaf city is really generous to let that thing go."

" Hehe, do you think i would stand a chance for getting that item?"

" Hush, don't get your hope too high, don't you see this ball was also the gathering of most talented youth in the maple-leaf city?"
