Chapter 17 - That was Anti-climatic...

(AN: Hi guys, I want to remind you that I'm a newbie writer and this is the first book that I wrote. I hope you will understand some mistakes and promise to improve in the future. I know some people don't like harems but it's up to you if you continue reading it or not. This is my story so I apologize for not applying what you are telling me but I accept suggestions thou. Main girls are a priority while tho others are just minor characters and maids that will not leave the mc. No Netorare but expect Netori. Just think of women riding mounts while the mc is only the male :). Thank you for reading till now.)

As we landed, I guided them on how to unmount the Royal Griffins, Leafa is taking advantage of this as she jumps to my embrace and tapping a kiss on my lips in front of the soldiers and adventurers stationed. Stop looking and continue your job. Singles...

"You're getting bolder huh... A few minutes ago, you were crying like a baby and know your acting in front of others without even care?" I spoke in a gentle tone with a teasing smile.

"Ara~ So you want me to be your 'baby' huh?" She places her index finger on her chin while looking up as if thinking for something then stared at me while saying in a very seductive tone. "Should I call you Daddy for now on~? Da~ddy~?"

Seriously! If I were a normal guy and can't control my libido! I could have pushed this lady right here! right now.

I pinch Leafa's nose while also planted a kiss on Rose, of course. Her smile looking at us is one of the best a man could ever ask for.

And while having some affectionate and loving 'reunion' moments, a man walked towards us followed by four women.

Is GPS available in this world? How on the planet do you keep following us? Am I handsome that makes 'Hiro' fell in love with me at first sight?

Hiro walked towards and glanced at Leafa and Rose, then lastly, landed his eyes at me. Yep, I have the top beauties in the Ashbridge kingdom. if counting Eudora and Sylvia... Well, that's for the future.

"Where are you going? You just came back right?" Hiro asked.

"Is it your business to know where are we going?" Rose asked while one of her eyebrows raised.

"We are preparing for our wedding then a honeymoon. Right Ryze?" Leafa leaped once while her jiggly assets bounced, which made most of the male onlookers stare. I immediately show my killing intent towards them, only I am allowed to stare at the peak of the mountains!

"Ryze? Who's Ryze?" Hiro asked one again?

"None of your business," Rose answered while grabbing my arms. I patted Rose's head while she returned a smile.

Hiro sighed and looked at us once again, and out of the blue, he clapped once and suddenly declared.

"Ryze... It's been a long time that we have seen each other again and I think you are getting stronger. I want to challenge you for a duel and see how capable you are in protecting Rose and Leafa. I don't like women getting kidnapped by bandits and a friend of mine will get killed."

I made a 'pfft', but Rose is shaking that she wants to attack, rose is a mage and powerful but not enough to beat Hiro. I gave Rose a kiss on the forehead and calm her down.

Friend? Haha! Laughable! Oh my, are you an Idiot? Can you see the summons around me? Or are you showing yourself in front of others?

What I can hear around us are gasp and whispered from the people. I know this will happen. Maybe I should give him the taste of the difference in power? I'm already Legend 3 while you are still Archon 2.

I sighed and walked towards the center, facing him without even the emotions to spare this man's life but I don't want my reputation to become negative. For now...

"You want to fight without armor or weapon? Are you really that confident now Ryze? Are you underestimating me? Are you getting cocky to have many creatures following me? Maybe you're just relying on them." Hiro said with a little bit scowl on his face.

While he was spouting nonsense, Leafa was giggling beside Rose. This woman... I should buy her a cape to cover her breast.

"Can we please start?" I asked while taking off my leather cap as well as my fur jacket to show my 'perfectly sculpted body' in front of his 'wives'. Do you think you are only the one how to show off?

Hiro glanced at his wives and noticed they were blushing. His expression getting ugly.

"I will be the referee!" Captain Ferand suddenly appeared, raising his hand. I nodded.

"Remember! No killing okay?"

Both of us agreed. Now people, witness and Anti-climatic battle that you have never witnessed before!

"What an idiot," Rose mumbled.

"Hey, Rose how about a bet? If Ryze will win in one minute, I will ask him to spoil me. How about you?" Leafa said while leaning her head at the side whispering at Rose.

"Three seconds, that's my bet and if I win, I will ask a baby right away," Rose replied that made Leafa a little stunned but gained her composure right away. She knows that Rose was only joking.

Receiving the 'Fight!' signal from Captain Ferand. Hiro rushed towards me with a shout, raising his broadsword, aiming me at my skull.

I thought no killing? Why are you releasing a strong killing intent in front of others?

As his sword swung downwards. I released a sigh, raising my hand and catch his sword with my bare hand.

Even thou Rose knew how strong I am right now, she was still shocked that I manage to catch a high-grade sword with my bare hand while Leafa suddenly gulped while thinking something malicious, as her breathe getting rougher.

The people around us that don't know strength have their eyes opened.

While Hiro's eyes went wide. I flicked the chest armor that manages to throw him almost 30 meters, but I know he will still live. What a pay ro win bastard, I could have said that 'Oops, sorry for accidentally killing Him with a flick'.

"This sword is not bad." While they were still stunned, I tried to practice swing Hiro's sword but changed my mind.

"But not good enough." Using my left hand on the edge while my right hand in the handle. I crushed his sword like and ripple it like a paper.

"Well, that was Anti-climatic." I sighed and casually walk towards Rose and Leafa again.
