Chapter 283
The two stayed together, getting close to each other, before Riveria asked, “What are you going to do with Ais?”
“What?” Tsukasa pretended to be confused.
Riveria sighed and pulled his cheek without hesitation.
“Ouch! Ouch! What are you doing?!” Tsukasa was speechless and begged her to stop.
Riveria somehow felt satisfied when she saw this expression, then asked, “Whether it is Ais, Tiona, or the others, you should be clear about their feelings, right?”
If it was someone else, they would hesitate, but Tsukasa was an undeniable scumbag, so he hugged Riveria gently and said, “You’re the one that I like, though.” He didn’t lie. He loved Riveria, and this wasn’t wrong. However, he didn’t deny he also loved the others either.
Still, when man’s validation was through the material, authority, or even strength.
The woman’s validation was through a feeling of being loved by someone. Well, some might not, but many were like this.
Riveria was the same, and of course, Tsukasa had to say he was the only woman in this world that could make him crazy, and he loved her so much. This was also the reason why he could become a scumbag with several women.
Frankly, even if he was born with a so-so face, he believed he could get many girls since he could make them believe they were his treasure, and he only loved them in this world even though that wasn’t the truth.
Being truthful was good, and Tsukasa could feel relief by saying so.
However, by saying this, it was impossible for Riveria to accept this fact for a while, and their relationship would be awkward if she rejected this fact.
Still, it would be different if Riveria was the one who took the initiative to let him date other women.
This was also what had happened to him and how he could date so many women at the same time in the previous world (Absolute Duo).
Miyabi let him date other girls, and she was okay with it.
However, there was a huge difference between Miyabi and Riveria. Still, it was a normal thing since they were different from each other and they were also different people.
Still, Tsukasa believed he could do it. He believed he could let Riveria open the harem.
However, if it wasn’t possible, Tsukasa could only bite the bullet and just expose everything.
‘But…’
Exposing everything felt nice and all. Tsukasa didn’t need to hide, and he could date many girls openly. If possible, he wanted to do this, but he hesitated when it happened in front of Riveria. After all, like what he had said before, a woman needed the validation of a man that he was in love with her.
Hearing his words, Riveria bloomed into a smile and hugged him.
“……..”
Tsukasa looked at Riveria and must admit this older woman was too cute, right?
While Riveria was embarrassed, she said, “Me too. I feel comfortable with you, and I love you.”
“……”
Tsukasa felt something broken in his mind, and he just kissed Riveria’s lips. It wasn’t until later he had woken up, and he saw Riveria was in a daze, watching on the ceiling absentmindedly.
“……..”
Tsukasa rubbed his face and thought he might have done too much.
Riveria awoke after a while, then after a moment of hesitation, she said, “But let’s keep our relationship a secret.”
While Tsukasa secretly felt happy, he asked while pretending to be in a shock, “Why?”
Riveria hesitated, but she said, “I don’t want to hurt Ais.”
Tsukasa stared at Riveria for a while and asked, “Then what if Ais confess to me?”
“……..” Riveria couldn’t say anything and lowered her head.
“Do you want me to date the two of you?” Tsukasa used this chance to ask.
Riveria was dumbfounded, staring at Tsukasa. She was in deep thought and felt it might be possible. Even though it was quite immoral, she didn’t really hate the idea.
“…I was just joking. You didn’t need to take it seriously.” Tsukasa must admit he was a really good liar.
“Well…” Riveria nodded, but inwardly she kept thinking. However, suddenly her thigh was patted, which made her blush. “It-It’s still too early for that!”
“….”
Tsukasa stared at Riveria in silence and said, “You misunderstand. Something is going to happen.”
Riveria quickly recovered and asked with a frown, “What’s wrong?”
“Something is going to move here.”
“From where?”
“It’s from the 49th Floor, and it is coming in the horde,” Tsukasa said with a frown.
Riveria quickly stood up, and she didn’t hesitate to command everyone. “Everyone, take your weapons and start with the formation! Something is coming!”
Everyone was dumbfounded, but they quickly responded.
The vanguard took their shield and stood in the front.
The rearguard prepared their arrows, and they were ready to attack anytime.
They were all from the Loki Familia, and their teamwork was the best in the Orario.
“When is it going to come?” Riveria asked Tsukasa since she hadn’t seen anything. However, somehow, she could feel something ominous was about to come from the passage that led to the 49th Floor.
“How about you prepare your magic first?” Tsukasa asked since he knew it would take a while for Riveria to prepare her magic.
Riveria nodded and said, “When it is time, tell me.”
“I know.” Tsukasa nodded.
Riveria felt relieved and knew everything would be alright with Tsukasa beside her.
“Harbinger of the end, the white snow.”
Riveria could feel the speed of her incantation for casting her magic becoming faster, and it surprised her since she didn’t expect the necklace Tsukasa had given her would have such an effect. However, she focused on her magic, so it wouldn’t fail and waited for his signal when the enemies were coming.
Everyone waited for a while until they saw monsters creeping out from the passage. They thought the monsters would be scary, but somehow these monsters lacked something that intimidated them.
The monster had the shape of an enormous green caterpillar.
It might be huge, but it didn’t scare the members of the Loki Familia.
“Is that a monster?”
“They didn’t seem strong.”
“If it’s only like this, I can handle it.”
The vanguard of the Loki Familia felt the monsters in front of them were weakling, especially when they moved quite slowly.
“Hey, wait a moment! Don’t attack them carelessly!”
However, Tsukasa’s reminder was too late, and a few vanguards bravely charged toward the caterpillar and attacked the caterpillar.
“I got you!”
However…
“AARRGGGGHHH!!”
The few who attacked, the caterpillar, screamed in pain as their skins were melted with a sizzling sound.
“Hurry up and pull them!”
Everyone quickly recovered, and they quickly pulled the people who were hurt because of the caterpillar.
Tsukasa frowned and thought these monsters were more troublesome than he had thought.
‘Also…’
There were too many monsters, right?
