A Cliché Multiverse Story

Genzou, my new father-in-law, faced me and Maya, my new waifu, with a daunting expression. His appearance screamed the overprotective daddy, who would do anything to keep a fiend off his daughter.

"Maya, have you resolved yourself for this? To be his eleventh girlfriend?"??

His words impacted us both.

"Yes, Otou-sama."

Genzou furrowed his thick brows. "Marikawa-dono, if you ever made her sad, you will be facing not me, but the entire Yotsuba Clan."

His threat severely dropped room temperature.

This man is a cool father. I must achieve his level of coolness if I want to be a good father!

"You won't ever need it."

"Why is everyone acting as though Maya got married?" Miya's retort passed through our ears as usual.

"Otou-sama, have you nullified the agreement with the Saegusa?"

Genzou nodded his head as he stood to leave the room. "I have."

"Are they unhap—"

"Maya!" A male voice resounded outside and a black-haired boy appeared at the door. An eyepatch covered his left eye, which he lost in the recent incident.

Genzou stepped in to cover the boy with his burly frame.

"Let me talk to Maya."

I wanted to see how Maya dealt with her former fiancé.

Maya drew closer and glanced up at me with a mischievous smile on her face.

"Otou-sama, let him come."

Kouichi rushed inside the moment Genzou moved. "Maya, you are safe!"

"Saegusa-dono." Maya rose, lifted the edge of her skirt, and bowed. "I apologize for the inconvenience I caused in Taipei. Saegusa-dono lost one eye from Dahan's machinations. If it's not too much, allow our Yotsuba Clan to remunerate by paying for the medical cost."

"Eh?" Kouichi froze.

I held in my laughter at the comical sight. The woman he came here to meet acted intimate with some other man and treated him like a stranger. Dye my hair black and cover my face with them, it will become a sight straight out of NTR doujins.

During these three days, Maya showed three faces. To outsiders, she acted like a prim, elegant lady, worthy of the 'Yotsuba Princess' title. For people close to her, she was a little imp, leaving no chance to prank if it amused her. The last one was reserved for me, acting like a meek girl—a result of her Element genes.

Right now, Kouichi felt the elegance of her first face.

"What is the meaning of this? The first thing I heard after I woke up was that our engagement was canceled."

"Yes, it is canceled as I cannot devote myself to someone other than my Onii-sama."

"Onii-sama?"

Maya took her seat again and beckoned Kouichi to sit.

The boy sat with his feet tapping the floor.

"Saegusa-dono, our Clan hid the truth about my bloodline. My mother was an Element devoted to my father. The blood of Element of Light flowed in her veins. I inherited it by birth to become an Element as well."

"Is that man the reason for this?"

Maya ignored his rising fury and continued calmly, "You must know the trait the majority of the Elements gained after they became tired of the community calling them 'Sorcerers' and 'Witches'. They imbued Absolute Compliance and Obedience in their own genes to show that they aren't a threat."

Maya took my hand and placed it on her cheek. Kouichi's eyes gleamed with rage.

"I believe no man would want a woman who would be utterly loyal to another man."

Kouichi pointed at me, gritting his teeth. "Then all I have to do is kill him and free you from this demon's curse."

Oh boy. This boy had guts.

Maya lowered her gaze and light flickered around her body.

"How dare you threaten my Onii-sama."

The coldness in her voice surprised even me, much less the poor boy who used to love her.

Miya arrived between Maya and Kouichi. "Maya, that's enough. We don't want to ruin the relationship between our Clans."

"Understood, Nee-sama. Please do not enter my sight, or I will be forced to reveal every secret of yours."

Kouichi sprang back to his feet and recovered his calmness. "What secrets?"

I stroked Maya's head to calm her anger. She smiled at me before shifting her attention back to Kouichi. "Like the incident where you indulged in a maid's body."

A young master indulging in his maid's body, huh. This brought back some... bitter memories.

Kouichi gave a deadly glare at me and huffed out of the room.

"Onii-sama, I am sorry if he troubled you."

"It's fine, my sweet little wifey."

"My, Onii-sama is such a tease."

I felt sorry for the guy though. He deserved an F after joining the gang of green hats.

—x—x—x—

We spent the rest of the day strolling in the garden, having a date in the nearest hill station; we enjoyed ourselves to the fullest.

Maya was quite the host today if I say so.

Sadly, I had to go now to love my other women. Being a harem protagonist had its shortcomings.

I propped my hands on the fence serving as the last line to a cliff and tore the wrapper of a bread roll. The taste reminded me of my high school.

A cloudless sky loomed above us, packed with glowing stars.

"It's beautiful," Maya commented and took a bite out of my bread. "Yum."

"Maya."

"Onii-sama, is it time?"

"Hmm." I finished my bread and took her hand, silently slipping the new ring on her finger.

Maya summoned her own light. "T-This."

A special black ring with a violet gem; the tiny button on the frame will allow her to use telepathy with mana. I also gave her a self-sustained mana battery to charge the ring and two white orbs; each could be filled with mana. The intensity of its light will determine the amount of mana. She could use it to learn to manipulate mana. She will get the hang of it in several days, if not more.

I could also manipulate Psions to create a broken magic sequence, which could only perform as a zone interference magic to counter a spell.

I shook my head at the over-complicated magic system and explained the ring's functions.

"I-I can talk with Onii-sama anywhere." She heaved a sigh of relief. "Thank god…"

Lifting her off the ground, I settled her butt on the fence and pecked her lips. "I will return in several weeks or maybe months but I will still visit you sometimes."

"How will Onii-sama visit me without coming here?"

"That's a secret."

She wrapped her arms around my neck. "Please embrace me next time."

I chuckled and brushed her hands off me. "I might. If you remain a good girl."

I activated stealth and slipped from her grasp.

Maya stretched her right hand and gazed at the ring.

I gave her several headpats in stealth and flew off. Staying here will only make me more reluctant to leave this adorable little creature.

"Onii-sama, Maya loves you!"

Her voice echoed in the silent hill, bringing a smile to my face.

'Klyscha, open the portal to that world.'

It was time to meet the beloved devil maid.
