Everyone looked to him and saw a petite woman who looked very shy.

"This is my fiancée, Ellie." Ron introduced the timid girl who looked like she wanted to hide behind him.

"N-Nice to meet you all!" The girl stuttered as she bowed to them as a greeting.

"Did your parents arrange this?" Zeke asked as he looked at Ron questioningly. He knew that Ron was the type that girls would rather have as a friend than a boyfriend.

"Sigh… Yeah…" Ron replied tiredly. Everyone knew that he was hopeless with girls and that his parents wanted to arrange a girl for him for so long already.

As soon as Ellie saw Ron's reaction, she looked down at her feet, feeling gloomy. Although she knew that it was just an arranged marriage, she had admired Ron for quite some time already.

"Wait… Is this even legal? She looks like she hasn't graduated high school yet!" Sharon asked when she saw the young girl. Indeed, the girl looked like she was around 17 to 18.

"She's on her last year of high school and we're not getting married anytime soon." Ron answered casually.

"Are you serious? She's like 8 years younger than you!" Zeke said as he looked at his friend in disbelief. Was this guy so desperate that he was willing to eat up a little girl?

"Well, my mother told me that she was the most suitable, so it can't be helped." Ron replied as he rolled his eyes. He didn't want to get engaged at all since he still hadn't found someone he loves yet but his mother was urging him to get married soon.

"Ellie, if you don't like this guy then you have to refuse him! Don't let him take advantage of you." Sharon warned Ellie as she looked at Ron cautiously. Was this guy that desperate?

"Why are you all looking at me like that?! It's my mother who set up this marriage, okay? I didn't do anything! I'm not that desperate!" Ron denied his involvement desperately.

However, his friends didn't believe him and looked at him with eyes filled with disbelief.

"Umm! It's true that he didn't do anything!" Ellie spoke up when she saw how everyone was looking at Ron suspiciously and continued softly while blushing, "I… I was the one who asked Auntie for this marriage…"

When Zeke heard the little girl, he patted his friend's shoulder and said, "Isn't that good for you, Ron? There's finally someone who wants you."

"Hey! What do you mean by that?" Ron retorted as he slapped Zeke's hand away. Were these guys really his friends?

Everyone laughed, and Keith soon arrived, not understanding what was happening.

"What happened? Why is everyone laughing?" Keith asked, feeling confused.

"Well, Ron here finally got his first girlfriend! Unbelievable, right?!" Zeke replied as he continued laughing.

Keith looked at Ron with eyes filled with disbelief.

"Even you too, Keith?" Ron exclaimed as he really felt like these people didn't treat him as a friend.

"I mean, you've always been hopeless with women, so I just assumed you'd stay single your whole life." Keith said apologetically.

"Of course not! I was just finding the love of my life!" Ron retorted back angrily. Ellie, who stood behind him, wanted to know who the person that just came in was so she tugged lightly at Ron's shirt.

Ron saw his fiancée's curious gaze and knew that she wanted.

"Anyway! This is my fiancée, Ellie! Ellie, this is Keith." Ron introduced the two to each other.

Keith saw the young petite girl and immediately told her, "If you're unsatisfied with Ron, feel free to dump him."

It seems like his friends really didn't think that highly of him.

"No, no, no! It's me who has to say that! I was the one who insisted on this marriage…" Ellie quickly replied back.

Keith looked at Ron with eyes filled with happiness for his friend, as if saying, 'Isn't that good for you, my friend?'

Ron saw the look in Keith's eyes and pouted, "Urgh! I'm not helping out anymore if you guys are gonna look at me like this!"

"Wait! We need your help! Plus, if you stay here then we can get to know about Ellie more!" Lilica quickly intervened. They desperately needed help organizing the wedding since Kazuya was very meticulous with everything that it was delaying the process.

"Fine… So, what did you need us to help with?" Ron asked.

"Mainly just organizing the guests list, sending out the invitations, thinking up the menu and the other minor things. Lilica said as she went to the table to gather the materials they needed. It was at this time that everyone finally noticed that Rena and Rona were in the room too.

Keith saw Rona and felt his heart tickle a little. He became interested in Rona and moved towards Kazuya, asking, "Hey, is there anything I can do that requires me to stay with the light browned hair girl there?"

Kazuya looked at his friend questioningly, as he sighed helplessly. Kazuya was feeling exceptionally happy today since they were finally planning his wedding, so he decided to help match make Keith with Rona.

"Rona! This guy here wants to help you out! Give half of your workload to him." Kazuya said as walked away and he looked at Keith as if saying, 'The rest is up to you.'

Rona looked towards their direction and saw Keith, who looked very handsome and pure in to her. She became very interested in him and felt like she had lost herself for a moment. She quickly walked towards Keith and handed some papers to him as she said, "Then can you please help me contact the companies from this list?"

Keith was in a daze the moment he heard her voice. Somehow, he felt like her voice sounded angelic to him, making his heart pound harder.

"Mr. Keith?" Rona asked when she saw that he didn't reply.

"…O-Oh! Y-Yes! Sure!" Keith stuttered as he returned to reality.

"Is there anything we can help?" A voice sounded from the door. Everyone turned to look and Kazuki and Lilienne was there.

"Yes, there is!" Lilica replied.

"Oh. But make sure not to give Lilienne too much work. I don't want my wife to work too hard. She's still pregnant." Kazuki warned as he tightened his arm that was wrapped around Lilienne's waist protectively.

"Hmm… Then how you guys help think up the menu? I don't really know any good dishes in the demon realm." Lilica suggested.

"Sure. We'll do that." Kazuki replied as he received the menu list that Lilica and Kazuya had scaled it down to about 100 types of different dishes.

"Make sure you select only the best from the list." Kazuya said as he also wrapped his arm around Lilica lovingly.

"I know." Kazuki said as looked at the list. However, the dishes were filled with only three main categories of things; curry, potatoes, dishes that didn't contain any vegetables. Just from the list, it was obvious how much Kazuya was spoiling Lilica. He even made the wedding menu filled with things that she liked!
