Chapter 66

Inside of the central room where the biggest bed is, everyone is on high alert. They have established a perimeter to protect them from possible attacks.

The first barrier is the door. It has been locked by Nycta, and there is an Ice Shield right behind it. With the Manafused metal, even if there is an impact, it will be much less. Ice Shield will then be the second barrier to the heatwave that comes.

In addition, everyone is glowing in yellow light. To make sure the damage will be less when the debris hit, Lily and Sam used the Defensive Aura spell on everyone in the room.

"I just can not believe I can do Light and Water magic this easily." Sam is astounded by his new abilities. "It's like seeing the dawn after eternal darkness. Thank you so much, Lily. And you too, Yui. I have never been able to use Water element this good."

"Even though we still have no idea how it has become like this, I'll take any compliments I can get." The masked girl smiles happily.

"Hehehe! Praise Yui more!"

After the blood bind with the girls, Sam now has received more Light, Wind, and Void affinity. Those have improved drastically. Even Water and Fire affinity has risen better thanks to Lily and the twins' blood. This happens because except for Light and Wind, Lily and Yui have Water, while Yuno has Fire.

According to the girls, his total affinity has affected them as well. Those who never used fire can now use Fire Bomb, his current signature. It is not yet known if they can also conjure Thunderstrike. It will need a separate training session to determine.

Most noticeable is Nycta, who has had only Void. She can now use all of Sam's spells and feel all elements around her better.

In short, while Sam received their powers, they also received his.

Especially the blind girl, who can somehow read his mind now.

"Grrrrr! Yuno can help Sam build a much better Fire Bomb!" The small girl puffs her cheeks.

"Yes, yes. Yuno is also really good!" He squeezes her face.

"Hehehe!" Her smile is brighter than the sun.

Then, Sam turns back to Nycta. "What is the maid doing? Should we really just abandon her like this?"

She turns at him. "Nope. She is here to serve us. I don't just hire her for nothing."

Nycta does hire her for nothing.

There's no salary. The maid is basically a slave for her.

"She's opening the box right now. It seems the cover is very lightweight despite the metallic material."

"It just made a psssst sound."

The tension keeps increasing by the second.

Everyone holds their breaths to listen to Nycta. Everyone except for one devilish girl.

"Uwaaaaaaaa~!" Yuno yawns as she holds her phone up.

"Inside is a bigger note than the one attached to the cover." Nycta describes what the maid is doing through their shared vision. "It reads..."

But then something interrupts her.

"Good morning and good evening everyone! This is Yuno, here with Yui. Tonight we are meeting up with the elusive Nycta. Be sure to like and subscribe to our channel and remember to turn on the notification bell so that you see more videos like this in the future!!"

Everyone jumps up in surprise. They really thought something exploded right then and there.

Stares come from all around Yuno.

"He...hehe...I forgot to turn the volume down..." The girl turns her phone off and looks away instantly. Her forehead is full of cold sweats. She does not dare face those deadly eyes right now. "Wow just look at the time! It's way past Yuno's nap. I need to keep my beauty sleep. See ya."

She puts a blanket on her head, hiding from everyone else. It is now 11 AM.

Sam chuckles at her childishness. "Please, Nycta, continue."

"Okay." Nycta Flint's at yuno one more time before she talks. "As I was saying, there is a note on the inside. It reads:

- I know you did not have the guts to open this package normally, Nycta. Probably using the maid's vision right?

- These gauntlets are for Sam.

- For the rest of you horny bastards, take the accessories. I don't have either time or effort to care about you that much.

- They are MY creations. So be proud of them that you even have the chance to obtain one. As of right now, you girls would know nothing about my name in the galaxy. Especially the gauntlets which have my dragon blood infused.

- Once I'm done with the throne, I'm coming for Sam. Wait for me, my love.

- I swear under the Goddess of Love that what I say means no harm to Sam...and others that love him as I do.

Sam's lawful future wife,

Rhan.

That is the end of the note. There is also a pair of golden and crimson gauntlets underneath it. To the sides are 2 necklaces and two rings."

"Really?! 'Sam's lawful future wife'? What the heck is this girl's problem?" Yuno sneaks out of her cover.

The rest of them nod at the same time.

"It should be Yuno!" She stands up proudly. "Even though Yuno did not pop Sam's cherry, Yuno will have the first space in the family registry."

*Piiiii*

Light flashes simultaneously in all of the girls' eyes.

Of course, the family registry!

They had all been so occupied with everything else, they did not think of that at all. Today, Yuno has done the best thing for them since forever. And probably the worst thing for her also since forever.

Although polygamy is legal, there must always be the first wife. When going into the wedding, that person is also the first one to be kissed in front of everyone.

No one remembers the second or the third.

The first wife is always the most important.

*Clap*

"Girls...Please focus..." The guy breathes out. He is not even done with one of them, but someone else is already coming. And it sounds like this person is a big shot. "What about the gauntlets?"

"I don't think it should have anything weird. It looks like this person is similar to us. If she really is our kind, then she would not cause you any harm." Nycta explains.

Sam then suggests. "Why don't we go out and try them for ourselves?"

"Wait a bit more, Sam." Lily stops him from going outside. "Nycta, could you please make the maid try on those gauntlets? Just to be sure?"

"Of course, she is in fact doing it right now. Nope. Nothing weird on the inside, nothing weird on the outside."

Yui actually pushes Sam forward. "If she uses Dragon's Tongue, she has a high chance to be an actual dragon. These creatures are very good with their crafting abilities so there is no way for us to know whether or not they did something to it. Also, dragons worship another God, War, yet she swore under our Goddess. That should be enough as proof. Having another faith than your own kind is not that common, after all."

The rest agrees with Yui.

"You are really a librarian. I can always rely on you in these difficult matters" Sam says.

"Hehe! Yui is proud!"

"Let's go check them out, then!"

"Yeah!" The girls enthusiastically answer.

After walking to the room, Sam can see the items addressed to him.

They are a work of art, to say the least.

There are two main colors: Gold, and crimson. The red color covers the whole thing, and Gold is used to decorate places such as nails and knuckles. Gold plates are also being used to cover from the wrist up to his elbow.

The back of the hand is decorated by a shining ruby the size of a golf ball. Lines of golden materials are drawn from that ruby to each finger similar to canals or copper wires.

The tips of the fingers are sharpened. Sam is not sure how deadly they are, but he will probably try them when he goes to the gym.

Lastly, the knuckles. As if knowing Sam uses his fists more than anything, the knuckles have sharp edges coming out like horns. Making these gauntlets lethal to the opponents. A shape of a dragon with 5 heads is drawn on it.

Sam puts it on, and they are a perfect fit. He does not feel uncomfortable at all.

*Whoosh*

He tries a punch.

The joints work perfectly fine, and there is no obstruction in performing. It feels like a custom-made order just for him.

This Rhan person, who is she?

"What about you girls?" He asks.

"Nycta and I have a necklace each, while Yui and Yuno have rings." Lily shows him items.

What they have is the complete opposite of what he has. Sam is given a pair of intricate design, high-quality, beautiful pieces of art. While the girls simply have some polished stones.

"They may look bad and cheap, but these increase our affinity, though. And l tried sending some mana inside it and taking the mana out. This thing can store mana! Like a battery!" Nycta says so enthusiastically.

"What about Yui and Yuno?"

The twins raise their rings for Sam to see. ""Same thing!""

"Oh wait, Sam!" Lily calls him.

"Yeah?"

She takes another note out. It looks like it has been purposefully shoved down the box. "This."

"What does it say?"

'Selection is coming in one month.

Everyone must start training. Now.

If you want to live with Sam, you will do what I tell you to.'
