Where am I? What is this place? I tried to sit and examined the place, I was sitting on a couch of what seems to be the living room with decorated family photos and figurines. I shifted my gaze around the room and felt a sense of nostalgia from it.

'….This place!?'

I saw the photo on the counter where the TV was at. The photo had four people, two females, and two males. The woman was beautiful, Her figure wasn't an hourglass figure instead had motherly beauty too it as she had baby fat on her waist yet it did not ruin her beauty. She wore a simple blouse and blue jeans. The woman had short bob cut hair that reaches her chin that emphasizes her again skin.

She was carrying an infant who was sleeping soundly obviously of such bliss.

Next to her is a man that had above-average build wearing casual clothing. He had tan skin and messy black hair that complimented his wide grin as he ruffled the hair of a young boy, was…me. I notice that my cheek felt cold as tears run down from it. This was my old house.

I remember the bliss of the past and how we enjoy every moment of it. It was the place of many great memories but it also brought tragedy. I turn around and I was in a different location. The place was a hallway and observing the people, I deduce that this was a hospital.

I instinctively enter one of the rooms and my eyes bulge. It was the room of my father. He was skinny to the bone felt like every second may be his end. I wanted run up to him and hold his hand for one last time but I couldn't move a muscle.

"…I-it that you son? Hehe, I'm sorry you had to see me like this…"

My mouth moves on it and approaches my father. I held his hand tight and felt his life slipping away. he had no warmth only cold skin.

"..I-I…it can't be like this… w-we need you.."

I sudden jolt of mixed emotion burst within my mind. My first emotion was disbelief to see my once strong healthy father reduced to this skeletal form. The other was guilt for being so helpless to help him.

"….Sorry son it…seems that I'll leave... The rest…to…you"

He took his last breath as held his hands. I look at his face and he had a satisfied smile. Dammit!!

"ARGH!!"

I scream loudly and I ended up waking up everyone, I look around and saw sapphire and the rest looking at me with worried faces.

"I-I just had little nightma-"

Suddenly sister lilt hugs me tightly as I felt her warmth. The feeling was like my mother's embrace and couldn't help but cry my hearts out as I recalled my family.

I miss them dearly but I couldn't go home without the system providing the way out. I was stuck here for how long but…

"Shhh yes let it out…"

I began to love this place and treat the people here as my family. I vow to help them with everything I could.

The next day

After my fight with Yami and getting back to the church. The first thing I met was the scolding by sapphire for ditching supper. She was extremely concerned when she felt the amount of killing intent that I released.

I explained how things had conspired, how I saved the prisoners, and killed every single one of the bandits. I also told her my fight with Yami and how he mention my mother.

After explaining everything she forgave me but warn me about forcing myself. I told her I promised to be careful without forgetting to tell her that I would take her on a date as payment.

Later that night, Sister lily and the rest were really worried about my sudden scream, and how I cried my eyes out while hugging sister lily. I just told them I had a nightmare about losing them. This in turn made me add a few layers of protective barrier around their body.

I wasn't planning to make a dome barrier as people would start asking who put it. So I add the barrier in too of their skin to be unnoticed, this is also will last forever but can be broken if taken many hits to at most a vice-captain.

Not to mention I will only saved those previous to me If needed and I won't care to stranger as long it does not affect someone dear to me.

(A/N: the barrier would be mask by their mana)

I wanted to give them a place better than this one and this made me think. What if I build my own kingdom? I ask the system if they were any inner world that I could buy so that I could bring people in. And the lowest inner world was asora from Tsuki ga michibiku douchuu but I needed a large amount of mana just make it a real inner world.

I put that aside for now and prepared myself for my date with sapphire. We ask permission to sister lily about playing near the demon skull. She agreed as it was not that far.

We went inside and change our form. I forgot to mention that sapphire could change adult form anytime she wants. Her child form change into a mature woman with a long silky white-haired and hourglass figure. She wore a beautiful blue dress with frills and laces that noble wore. She gave me a smile as she saw drooling.

I already told her about the shapeshifting ability that I bought. I also change into dante from god of highschool. I wore a dark green coat similar to the robe of the sage but without the omega or alpha symbol. Overall both of us look like a high class noble.

I approach and grab her waist as I took her lips. Our tongue fought for dominance and I won in the end as our lips depart it had created a strand of saliva.

"You are really beautiful my lovely sapphire~"

She rests her head on my chest as she catches her breath. I couldn't help but find this adorable as she was typically much more aggressive but when I do this, it flips.

"Are you ready?"

"Y-yes, dear!"

I grinned and held her tight as we flew towards the capital without forgetting to add illusion magic to avoid people's eyes.

_______________________________

The kingdom of clover has three distinct districts. The first is the outer circle, where the hage village and other poor commoner villages are located. Second is the middle circle where most commoners who manage to enter the kingdom and lastly the inner circle where the nobles are located.

Currently, both me and sapphire are just sightseeing the place. I could feel the gaze of everyone seeing our faces. The woman looked at me blushing as I pass by them while the men look at my wife with lust. This of course made me piss.

"…15x gravity!"

I mutter silently as every man that looked at my wife fall into the ground. I felt an elbow hit my side and look at my wife who seems both annoyed and happy at the same time.

"What?"

"You don't need to do that you know?"

"I couldn't just make them stared at my lovely wife with their filthy gaze."

"…And you plan to make a harem."

She said and looked at me deadpanned. I couldn't answer as I realize that was being hypocritical and forgot about my wife's feelings. Even though she didn't have a problem with it, it doesn't mean she wouldn't be jealous. The [harem parameter] only lessens the jealousy.

"..I-I….was-"

"Hehehe looked at your reaction it's priceless!"

Damn, she's good at teasing me. She then held my arms hugging her two peaks into my biceps. She then kisses my cheek.

"Well anyways where are we going, samshiel?"

"hmmm how about we go plaza maybe their traveling bard or something."

After that, we went to the plaza where their someone handing plyers about a commoner with nothing else to do we went to see the 'movie'.

The story was just about the first wizard king and how he defeated the first devil. The story had added parts(lie) like how the 'other race' actually assisted the devil. I already read about the devil manipulating everything behind the scene, which I piss at them for making other races bad.

I wanted to help them but it may endanger someone from my family if I made a mistake. I don't care if many people die as they are complete stranger for me but that doesn't I won't act. I have my own plans.

Furthermore, I won't be able to stop them alone and I don't want sapphire to do it for me. After the movie we went and grabs some lunch around the plaza, we sat there enjoying the people's busily doing their works.

"Samshiel, you been a little off since you return yesterday.…"

We were sitting on a bench and she was laying her head on my shoulder. I then rest my heads to hers and replied.

"I just recalled about my dad's dying wish."

"…samshiel…if you miss him why don't you just revive him?"

"I want to but….I couldn't right now seeing as I was a complete failure not able to support my family."

I was buried with guilt that I couldn't even get decent jobs to help my family. The past years when he died we were forced to sell our old house and face some tragedy. I made my mother suffer and let my sister cried when mom fell ill.

I wanted to revive him when I have a place where we could have our happiness. This goes for the others from the have village, I wanted them to have a blissful life.

"Maybe when I'm done doing everything after I marry you. Well enough about that. Sapphire can you close your eyes."

She then closes her eyes and knew what is going to happen. I slip a ring that I bought from one of the stall. It was a simple silver ring with a magic crystal invaded into it. I kiss her tender lips as I care her head.

"Now open them."

She slowly opened revealing her golden eyes and shifted into hair right ring finger that had a silver ring. She smiled and hugged me tightly. I also did the same and said.

"I'm glad you like it."

"I love it."

We continue sat there as the sun slowly set revealing the orange sky. Suddenly a female bard arrive and sat near the fountain and sang a beautiful melody.

Music - Priscilla's song from witcher 3

The peaceful song and the warmth of my lover had erased my uneasiness, forgetting my troubles for just these moments. People started to gather listening to female bards.

'…wait is that geralt of rivia??'
