The food nearly flew across the table as Hestia asked, "What exactly did you just say?" She couldn't believe those words had come out of Haruhime's mouth. Then she continued, "You're joking, right?"
Haruhime was startled by Hestia's reaction and said, "I'm sorry, please just ignore what I said." She took a bite of her toast while trying to act as though nothing had happened.
I looked at Hestia, and she looked back at me.
I nodded, and Hestia said, "I'm not angry or anything, just surprised."
"You're not angry?"
"No, I'm not. It was just very unexpected. Did you two know something was going on between them?" Hestia asked Mikoto and Lili, and both of them nodded.
"Why didn't you tell me anything, Luan!?"
"It happened very suddenly."
"Liar. You've wanted to sleep with Haruhime for a long time," Lili said with a mischievous smile. This girl…
"Wait, you two already slept together?"
"Well, that's why Haruhime wants to marry Luan," Lili explained.
"When?"
"Last night," I answered.
"So that's what those strange noises were last night. I thought you were having fun with Lili or Mikoto, but it was Haruhime… I'm surprised."
"Wait, you could hear everything!?" Haruhime asked, visibly shocked.
I almost laughed.
"Yes, I could hear it."
"Urgh…" Haruhime's face turned bright red, and she nearly crawled under the table.
"Well, honestly, I don't really care anymore. Luan already has plenty of women, so I don't mind adding one more to his 'harem.'" Hestia smiled at me. "In the end, I'll still remain number one, right?"
Hearing her question, I smiled at her and replied, "Yes, you'll always be my number one."
It wasn't a lie.
In the end, the "character"—or rather, the woman—I love the most is still Hestia.
I just think I probably shouldn't have admitted that so openly…
All of them were staring at me as if they were angry.
They're not actually angry… right?

The girls didn't say anything, even though they were visibly irritated by my words. I didn't realize they could get this jealous. I simply kept eating without saying anything else.
I ate in silence while listening to the four girls' conversation.
Once again, the wedding became the main topic.
We had talked a lot about the wedding some time ago, but during the last few days, even though the invitations and venue had already been prepared, we hadn't talked about it anymore. Hestia was the one who had been the most excited about the wedding, but it was almost as if she had forgotten about it.
At least until now…
Once the conversation about the wedding started again, Hestia became excited all over again.
They started talking about the wedding venue, and they even made me take the invitations out of my inventory so they could look at them. But as soon as Hestia saw the invitation, she noticed something wrong.
Only Hestia, Lili, and Mikoto's names were on it.
"You need to ask Elma to make new invitations with Haruhime's name on them," Lili said. "Do you think that'll be too much trouble?"
"Elma can probably do it without any problems."
"But do you really want to remake the invitations now?" Hestia asked while looking at me.
"Hmm?"
"Didn't you tell me you're also involved with Tiona and Tione? Aren't you going to propose to them too?"
"That's true, aren't you?" Lili asked with sparkling eyes. "Maybe you should propose to Ais too. Wouldn't that be fun?"
"If I do that, Loki will kill me. It's better not to think about something like that right now. First I need to earn Loki's trust."
I said that while putting the last piece of bread into my mouth.
Loki likes my dick, not me.
Even so, she's slowly starting to "open up" to me.
It won't take long before I have her under my control just like Ishtar…
I won't marry Tiona, Tione, or Ais until I have Loki completely in the palm of my hand.
"So should we wait a little longer?" Lili asked. "What do you think, Goddess?" she asked Hestia.
"Hmmm…" After thinking for a moment, Hestia said, "I don't mind waiting. If you want, I can talk to Loki."
The moment Hestia said that, I instinctively replied, "Don't do that."
"Hmm? Why? Don't you want those women by your side?"
"Yes, of course I do. But I want to do it myself. You don't need to help me with that. It's better if I earn Loki's trust and friendship naturally."
"That could take a while…" Hestia, who knows Loki well, said.
Well, maybe it won't take that long if I put in a little effort.
'Should I go tease Loki again?'

After breakfast ended, I went to my room, and Mikoto followed me. As soon as we entered, she asked,
"Are you planning to go to the dungeon today?" She looked at me expectantly.
"I'm thinking about it. Probably yes, but later. But don't even think about asking to come with me. You're not going."
"Why!?"
"Last time was easy enough, but you still got exhausted. That's bad for you and the baby."
"It'll be fine!" Mikoto said. "Please."
"Why do you want to do this so badly? You looked terrified last time."
"I wasn't scared! It was really fun. You have no idea how I felt when I swung my sword and cut down those monsters… It felt amazing."
I smiled at her and said, "Alright, I'll take you with me. But first I need to go somewhere else."
"Where?"
"I need to see a friend."
"A friend? Don't tell me it's one of the girls from the Loki Familia?"
"Yes, something like that."
"Don't worry, I won't say anything to Hestia."
"There's nothing to hide. I'm leaving now."
After saying that, I disappeared.
And where did I teleport to?
Well, Loki's room.
