Chapter 101: Kasha's Rank Fight

Kasha casually extended her hand toward me.

"Hold my hand."

"Yes~ hehe."

"Wow! So cute!"

I gently took Kasha's wide, soft hand. Her face flushed a deep red, as if her heart was racing.

'Has the fear she had during our duel really faded? It's fortunate, but how does she truly feel about me?'

"Sister Kasha, can I ask you something?"

"Sure."

"You were scared of me during the duel, weren't you?"

"Tsk. Yes."

"And now? Aren't you scared anymore?"

Kasha suddenly stopped walking, looked at me, and then burst into laughter.

"Puhahahaha! Why should I be scared?! Kkkk. Kyahahahaha!"

"What's so funny? It's embarrassing."

"Puhuhuhuh. You're stronger than me, and now you're my husband! Shouldn't I be happy about it instead of scared? Unless… are you planning to kill me?"

"Of course not. I like you, Kasha."

"Then you should be happy~ My family will be too! Kyahahaha!"

Even if someone once made you fear for your life, if they became your family, wouldn't you feel comfortable with them? It's hard to describe. I can't tell if Kasha has a brave heart or if she's just simple. Maybe it's because beastmen, living close to nature in the jungle, see life and death regularly. Humans rarely encounter death, but beastmen, venturing outside their tribes, face deadly monsters constantly. Perhaps that's why Kasha doesn't dwell on the fear she once felt toward me.

"I'm glad you aren't afraid of me anymore!"

"Hehe~ A wife has to protect her husband too, you know. I can't be scared."

"Uh? Isn't it the husband who protects the wife?"

"In beastman society, we protect each other. You protect me, and I protect you. A couple is equal."

"Wow, that's a great philosophy."

I like it much more than the idea that a man should provide for his woman or that a woman should manage the household.

Kasha continued holding my hand and led me toward a restaurant.

"This place serves dishes that are great for stamina."

"Oh, oh! Just what I need!"

As we entered the restaurant, a bear-man greeted us with a smile.

"Wow~ It's Kasha. I heard you got married. Is Bisil your husband?"

"Krrrr! Mister! He's not Bisil, this is my husband!"

"Haha! Just joking. So, what would you like to eat?"

"Something good for stamina. Bring us two portions."

"Humans don't usually eat this stuff, you know?"

"It's fine. I'll make sure he eats it."

"Alright then, two servings of roasted goblin penis, coming up."

'Wait, what? Did I hear that right?'

"Sister Kasha."

"Hmm?"

"Did you just say goblin penis?"

"That's right."

"Aaaah! This is a nightmare! We have to leave!"

In a panic, I bolted for the door.

Squeak.

Kasha grabbed me by the collar and pulled me back.

"No! My dignity as a human!"

Kasha wrapped her arms around me from behind.

"Darling♥ I love you♥"

"Sister! Saying that in a sweet voice doesn't change anything!"

"Che!"

"Goblins aren't food!"

"Goblin penis is a prized aphrodisiac in beastman society."

"Why?!"

"Darling, goblins can impregnate females of any species, and they can keep going all day long. Don't you think it's obvious their... parts would contain the essence of vitality? Think it through."

Kasha's explanation was oddly convincing.

'Wait, am I really starting to believe this...?'

"Darling, beastmen aren't foolish. We've perfected this over generations. Goblin penis has been proven to be the best stamina-boosting food, refined over countless years of trial and error."

"Then why don't humans eat it?"

"Humans find goblins as repulsive as you do. But beastmen, needing to survive in the wild, eat without hesitation and have strong stomachs. We know of many delicacies humans wouldn't dare try."

"Is that so? Then I guess I'll try it."

Kasha beamed and patted my back.

"Kyahahaha! That's my husband! Let's sit."

We found a table and sat down.

Soon, two steaming bowls of roasted goblin penis and rice were placed before us. The dish was... anatomically complete, down to the scrotum, and looked disturbingly similar to an uncircumcised human organ with rough, green goblin skin.

'Ugh…'

I felt nauseous but swallowed my discomfort when I saw Kasha and the bear-man smiling at me.

The bear-man explained enthusiastically.

"Wow~ This is the best part of a hobgoblin we caught just yesterday. I marinated it in a secret sauce, so the meat is especially tender. The urethra's been cleaned, and we've removed all the hair, so you can eat the whole thing."

He left us to our meal, and I stared at the food, my hands trembling.

"Darling~ Enjoy~"

Kasha wrapped the roasted penis in a leaf, lifted it, and opened her mouth to bite off the glans with an audible crunch.

Wagjak, tdeudeuk.

She chewed with satisfaction.

"Mmm~ This goblin penis is always delicious! Darling, why aren't you eating?"

"Well... I'll eat."

I hesitantly picked up the goblin penis wrapped in a leaf.

'Where do I even start? The glans? The shaft? The balls?'

No matter where I begin, something about my dignity as a person feels like it's crumbling.

Kasha noticed my hesitation and offered guidance.

"Darling, the glans is firm and flavorful. The shaft has lots of blood vessels, so it's rich and juicy. If you want something chewy and spicy, try the urethra. The scrotum has crispy skin, and the balls are filled with savory juices."

"Ah. I see... I'll start with the glans."

Following Kasha's lead, I bit into the glans, and the juices burst into my mouth.

Tuk Tuduk.

Surprisingly, it didn't taste bad. In fact, it was more savory and tender than I had imagined. If I ignored its appearance, it was actually a decent dish.

"Uh? It's... pretty good?"

"Kikik. See? It may seem gross at first, but once you taste it, you'll understand. Even wolves, when they hunt, eat the balls and anus first because they're the tastiest parts."

From then on, I ate the goblin penis without worrying about its appearance. The scrotum was crispy, and the balls were similar to pork intestine, but lighter and softer, almost melting in my mouth.

After finishing the meal, I leaned back, feeling full and satisfied.

"I'm stuffed~"

"Darling, shall we head out?"

"Yes."

"Where are we going?"

"Home."

I answered without thinking, then realized my mistake. Kasha's eyes narrowed as she questioned me.

"Hoooome?"

"...Yes."

"Who do you live with?"

"Well, that's..."

Bang!

Kasha slammed the table, her voice low and dangerous.

"Who. Do you live. With?"

I gulped. Kasha was one of the strongest close-combat warriors on the continent, blessed with the 'True Love' power. If she wanted to, she could easily take down my other wives. Aris could compete with her, but once Aris ran out of mana, she'd be defenseless. And I hadn't... replenished Aris's mana recently.

"Darling, what are you afraid of?"

"Sister, I'll tell you the truth. Just... please don't kill me."

"Hmm? Go on, then."

"So... I was given a mission to save the world..."

I explained everything about my mission to Kasha—the destruction of the world I saw in my dream, and how I had to gather warriors to stop it. As she listened, her expression was like the calm before a storm.

"But... are all the warriors women?"

"...Yes."

Tdu-duk, tdu-duk.

Kasha clenched her fists, the sound of her knuckles cracking loud and clear. My body trembled as I feared she might knock me out.

"Hmmm... How many wives do you have now?"

"Two."

"Including me, that makes three?"

"...Yes."

"Are they all at home?"

"...Yes."

"Then let's go."

Kasha stood up and walked out of the restaurant, her tail bristling with tension.

'Ahhh! That's a tail ready for battle!'

I quickly ran after her and grabbed her arm.

"Sister! Please don't fight!"

"I don't know..."

She kept dragging me along.

"Sister! Spare my wives!"

"Aren't I your wife?"

"You are! But please don't hurt the others!"

She stopped in her tracks and asked, her voice suddenly soft and dangerous.

"Darling... why do you think I'm going to kill them?"

"Well, your tail is... stiff."

"Tch."

"Really?!"

"It's not."

"Please! Sister Kasha! Look at my cute face and forgive me!!!"

Kasha chuckled, sticking out her tongue to lick my cheek.

"Darling, even your sweat tastes sweet."

"Sister..."

She licked the other side of my face too.

"My sweet darling... this is all mine."

I was caught off guard, but before I could say anything, Kasha gave my head a gentle pat and burst into laughter.

"Kkekekeke! Puhahahaha! Haha!!!"

"Sister! Why are you making me so nervous?"

"Hey, relax! In beastman society, polygamy is completely normal. A strong man is expected to have many women. And you, darling, you're strong enough to handle them all!"

"So... it's really okay?" I asked, cautiously hopeful.

"Of course!" Kasha replied with a grin. "Sure, I'm a bit upset I'm not the first wife, but that doesn't mean I'll go around killing your other wives."

"But... what's with your tail? Even if you say it's okay, your body is clearly saying otherwise!"

Her tail was still stiff, standing at full attention as if ready to strike at any moment.

Kasha, with her usual shameless expression, pointed to her tail and casually explained, "Ah, this? It's nothing to worry about. When a man has multiple wives, isn't it natural for them to compete for rank?"

"A rank fight?" I asked, feeling a pit form in my stomach.

"Exactly! In beastman society, when there's polygamy, the wives fight to determine their ranking. I plan on becoming your first wife! Kyahahahaha!"

"But... all my wives are equal! There's no hierarchy between them!" I protested.

Kasha grabbed my shoulders firmly, locking eyes with me as her tone turned serious.

"Darling, let me explain something important. In beastman society, there's no such thing as equality between wives. The strongest wife always comes first, and I fully intend to claim that position."

"Sister, that's not how it works with humans!" I argued, but I knew deep down it was futile.

Kasha smirked, her competitive spirit practically radiating from her. "Humans may be strange, but this is how things are done for us. Besides, I'm not just any wife—I'm Kasha! And I don't back down from a challenge."

"..."

I let out a deep sigh, realizing that no amount of reasoning would change her mind. Kasha was set on this "rank fight" business, and it didn't seem like anything I said would deter her. Her wild nature, shaped by the rules of the beastman society, made her fiercely competitive and determined to assert her dominance.

"Just... promise me you won't hurt anyone," I pleaded.

Kasha laughed again, ruffling my hair before standing up. "Don't worry, darling. I won't kill anyone. But don't be surprised if there's a little roughhousing. That's just the way it is."

"Roughhousing?!" I exclaimed, feeling even more anxious.

"Yup!" she confirmed with a grin. "Just a little competition to decide who's the strongest, and who deserves to be first. It's tradition."

I sighed in defeat. There was no stopping her, was there?

"Come on, darling," Kasha said, pulling me up to my feet. "Let's go home and meet your other wives. This is going to be fun!"

Fun? I could only hope that "fun" didn't mean chaos.

---

When we arrived home, the atmosphere shifted immediately. My other wives, Jenny and Aris, were already waiting for me. Aris, ever composed, gave me a knowing look as soon as she saw Kasha. Jenny, on the other hand, looked visibly uneasy.

Kasha's tail stiffened again, her posture signaling that she was ready for a challenge. She crossed her arms and sized up the two women standing before her.

"So, these are your other wives?" Kasha asked, her tone dripping with both curiosity and competitiveness.

"Yes..." I replied nervously, bracing myself for what was about to unfold.

Kasha walked up to Jenny first, her eyes scanning her from head to toe. "So, you're one of darling's wives? How strong are you?"

Jenny blinked, looking utterly confused by the question. "Uh... I'm not really much of a fighter. I mostly take care of the household."

Kasha narrowed her eyes, clearly unimpressed. "Hmm... you might need to toughen up if you want to keep up with me."

Before Jenny could respond, Kasha shifted her gaze to Aris. "And you?"

Aris remained calm, meeting Kasha's intense stare without flinching. "I specialize in magic. Space magic, to be exact."

Kasha's competitive grin widened. "Magic, huh? That could be interesting. But let me make something clear—I'm going to be darling's first wife, got it?"

Aris raised an eyebrow, clearly unbothered. "Is that so?"

"Kasha, please!" I tried to intervene, but it was obvious Kasha was already deep into her competitive mindset.

"Don't take it personally," Kasha said, her gaze still locked on Aris. "It's just how things are done. In beastman society, strength determines rank. And I'm here to prove I'm the strongest."

Aris sighed, clearly uninterested in engaging. "If it's a fight you're looking for, I suppose you'd have the upper hand physically. But if it's magic you want to test, that's another story."

Jenny, watching the exchange nervously, finally spoke up. "I don't want to fight anyone. I'm happy just being a part of this family, no matter my rank."

Kasha's expression softened slightly, and she gave Jenny an approving nod. "You've got a good heart. I can respect that. But don't expect me to go easy on you if the time comes."

Jenny gulped, unsure of what that meant.

Aris, always composed, simply nodded. "As long as we all understand each other, I see no issue."

I looked between my wives, feeling a mix of relief and apprehension. "So... no fighting, right?"

Kasha smirked. "No promises."

Aris sighed. "We'll manage."

Jenny offered a nervous smile. "Yeah... we'll figure it out."

I had a feeling this was just the beginning of a very complicated dynamic between my wives. But at least for now, things seemed to be peaceful—well, as peaceful as they could be. I just hoped it stayed that way.
