Early evening… .

Clyde loved talking to Harumi . Thanks to fighting by her side in many life or death situations, he overcame the need to accidentally look at her b.r.e.a.s.t.s during a conversation . He always maintained eye contact . Well, he became a master at doing both .

Harumi's interests were wide and vast, but her pa.s.sion for being a chef outs.h.i.+ned them all . His own overall goal to save this planet and end the stone-viper games for good felt too large for a conversation . When the system announced the territory ordeal, the idea of being a ruler came to mind . Sure, politics sucked, but the government let demons roam free to devour humanity and now teamed up with the Yazuka . What a f.u.c.king mess .

"How long do you two plan to laze around?" Kitome snarled from the door .

The duo hopped from the bench, laughing as they hurried to join the others .

A couple of hours later, Clyde could see everything coming together as stand after stand was erected around the school's track .

Somehow Seth and Natalia were in charge of the footraces and games . Clyde just knew they were going to be ridiculous . Sazuki oversaw the process of all construction, except the stage . Most of the girls gave it no more than a pa.s.sing glance, but the guys . They definitely knew the plan .

Despite everyone working together on such a beautiful evening—starry skies and slightly cool breezes—there was a rivalry brewing amongst the cla.s.ses . Cla.s.s A acted superior to everyone, starting off the division . Soon following up was B and D . Clyde's own cla.s.s eventually left the "no f.u.c.ks to give" zone to join the war . Team Stone didn't seem too interested, but the young man couldn't help but overhear one of the bets .

"If we win, you'll have to fork over your Team Stone members to our cla.s.s," some rich girl said then did the unthinkable . The rich anime girl laugh with the hand gesture and all . "Ohohohohoho . "

"Yeah, Cla.s.s C will be winning this one," Clyde said . He knew d.a.m.n well that the wealthy a.s.shats would pull strings and ruin his cla.s.s schedule .

"Kun, kun, I smell fighting spirit . " Ruri wagged her tail . "It makes me want to try that howl Natalia keeps bugging me about . "

"Ruri—"

"Awooooooo!" the h.e.l.lhound howled, gaining Clyde's blank stare . Fortunately, she wasn't loud, and no one paid attention to them, other than Naomi, who walked toward the duo .

"What's up Naomi?" Clyde said .

"Hi, uhm, Harumi needs you," she said .

"She didn't just text," Clyde said .

"Her battery died," Naomi said . "I told her I'd relay the message . "

"Are you headed out?" Clyde asked .

"No, I'm taking pictures and a.s.sisting my cla.s.s," she said .

"You smell really tired," Ruri said . "Are you sure you don't want to rest?"

"Smell?" Naomi said looking at her in confusion . Seconds later, it hit her . Since the blush was cute, Clyde let Ruri off the hook . "I'm sure everyone's tired . "

Clyde decided to say the old cliché anime line, which was true in most cases . He doubted the journalist would listen without his insistence .

"Don't push yourself," he told the green-haired girl . She smiled .

"I won't . "

He didn't get the chance to watch her walk away—Ruri was all over him .

"Clyde, you shall treat your h.e.l.lhound princess waifu to some meat . " She placed her hands on her hips, looking pleased with her declaration .

"Since you didn't ask nicely—"

"Pleeasee," she said, teary, holding onto the young man .

"You don't need my permission to—" He halted his words, instantly realizing that he…was Clyde, not some dense buffoon . Sheesh, what was with him? It had to be the awe of knowing that his upcoming marriage included a super-hot G.o.ddess . "If you want to eat together, just say so . "

Ruri blushed .

"I…you know, never had a mate . No guys for friends . So I don't know how . "

"You ask the same way as always," he told her .

[Talent, main character stuff: Head pat . ]

He didn't trigger that, but went with it . The h.e.l.lhound melted into it, her tail wagging faster .

"Let's finish this up here first," Clyde said, "then we'll eat afterwards . Do you see how hard everyone's working? Let's not be the slackers . Tomorrow, you'll be able to eat as much as you want . "

Ruri's tail wagged faster .

"Ooh, I can't wait . Awooo!"

"Okay, let's squash the howling thing," Clyde said .

"Party p.o.o.per," Ruri said .

Clyde felt a tap on his back . He turned to see Airi, dressed in a casual skirt, smiling at him .

"Since you convinced me to stay, are you going to ask me to marry you like in the movies?" she said jokingly .

"Maybe," Clyde said .

"He's going to marry me first," Ruri said, then giggled . "So, what do you think of our setup so far?"

"Fancy," Airi said . "I can't wait to try the food tomorrow . "

"Oh, Clyde you shouldn't keep my soul sister waiting," Ruri said .

"Your soul sister? Oh, Harumi," Clyde said then nodded . "A h.e.l.lhound and a fox . Fox and the hound . It all makes sense now . " He chuckled .

"Care to share your magnificent revelation, oh great G.o.d of wisdom?" Airi said, doing exaggerating hand motions in the air, along with finger wiggling .

"Just something from my world," he said . And an Easter egg he somehow revealed .

"Let's go get beef jerky, Ruri," Airi said, pointing at a nearby vending machine . "Sorry Clyde, I'm taking this cutie away . "

Ruri wiped away a little drool .

"I left my money at home and Matsume can't be found . "

"She's napping in the cla.s.sroom closet," Clyde said . "Start using your nose on targets other than me . " He winked then started toward the building .

As he headed to the main cla.s.sroom where they conducted their work, a thought popped into his head . He collected a variety of Ki crests, including Ruri's Control, Agility, and l.u.s.t and Matsume's Fierce, Fire, and Composure . Among all of them, there were two highlighted words . Alice's Radiance and Kanako's Range . Range's rarity matched the color of a relic…If he boosted it, how far could he go?

[This crest has no limit . It is also dependent on the skill . In theory, boosting range to an extremely high level would enable you to target planets and even other universes . However, this would be simply impossible with s.e.x . s.e.x increases Ki once per day . You'd need 10,000 or more consecutive years of daily s.e.x with the genie to pose a threat to your intergalactic neighbors . Not that you are considering it . ]

Clyde sighed . He knew from the beginning that s.e.x's limitations and slow Ki increases, would eventually become a problem . Ki items never drop . He needed…a lot of chests .

The idea came to mind . Airi . Her job on Team Stone could be to locate dungeons and report them to him . He'll limit the party to just four people to make tracking health and magic easier—his party had plenty of power to spare—and take down whoever guarded the rewards . The Super Druid would probably auto-reserve a spot for herself, which was fair enough . Tear's network should be able to a.s.sist the purple-haired young woman with digital maps, terrain, and anything else .

[Quest: a.s.sign Airi the job as Dungeon Finder . This quest is mandatory and cannot be refused . Reward: 12,000 EXP and 1 *Sun drip potion* . ]

An item for a reward . f.u.c.k yes . The EXP was meager, possibly a randomly selected number . In the hall, Clyde waved down Alice .

"Where's Harumi?"

"I think she's sitting in the cafeteria," Alice replied .

"Let's go check on her," Clyde said . His life mate nodded .

[Good! You've enabled quest path: see Harumi . Alice must be present . ]

Uh oh . He hoped the pink-haired young woman was okay . Protect her smile . . . now that definitely applied to everyone's favorite fox girl . Everyone loved her, but he did on a deeper level .

Maybe after the festival setup, he'd go spend some time with Tear . Maybe both . Somehow…he knew that he could do that…

[You should consider rest because you clearly keep forgetting that you have a harem . You do not have to spend time with just 1 girl at a time; however, to give credit where it's due, it is sweet . Each girl wants your attention . For thinking of Tear, you gain +10 intellect . +50 endurance . ]
