The Hero Took Everything from Me, So I Partied with the Hero's Mother!

Chapter 208: Zect's Side, Ceres' Power

Zect's POV

My stomach really hurts.

Ceres must have a stomach of steel...

Afterwards, I talked to Marin and Luna about what happened this time.

Luna probably didn't understand it well... So, she said, "I'll leave it to 'Zect'," and it ended there.

But the problem was Marin.

"Please consult with me, the main wife, first when it comes to things like this."

But, we're not married yet, right?

Well, since I intend to marry her, there shouldn't be a problem...

"I'm sorry. I decided on my own without consulting you."

"You don't need to apologize... we just went back to the way things were! But from now on, please follow the proper procedures... there are many things to consider."

"Many things?"

"Yes."

According to Marin, if I had defeated the Demon King as it was, Marin would be the main wife as the princess, and Maria, Lida, and Mel would be the concubines.

That was the future that could have happened.

But thanks to Ceres, the world became peaceful and there was no longer a need for me to fight against the demon tribe.

There were other things that were said and left unresolved.

In the end, this story was put on hold.

It seems that's how it is.

"I see, there was certainly a possibility that it could have turned out that way if things had remained as they were."

"That's correct... so please be prepared for the day that may come... that's what I was thinking, but please prepare yourself mentally."

"I'm sorry."

"Well then, since it's better to talk about it sooner rather than later...shall we discuss our plans for the future with Maria-san and the others starting now?"

"Indeed, let's do that."

I went to call Maria and the other girls.

* * *

"Are we going to meet Princess Marin now?" Maria asked.

"I don't want to," Lida said.

"It sounds like a hassle," Mel added.

Regardless of how Maria feels, as members of the 'Hero (Yuusha) Party', Lida and Mel have talked to the princess before and should understand the importance of the meeting.

But, Lida, Mel... both of you...

Is it because Ceres spoiled them?

"You guys said it yourselves: take responsibility for this. So, I'll take responsibility, which means accepting the three of you as my wives... Do you understand that?" I said, addressing three of them.

"Yes, I understand... You will make me your wife, right?" Maria asked.

"You will make me your wife... that's what you're saying," Lida confirmed.

"You will marry me? That's what you meant, right?" said Mel.

"Yeah, I won't go as far as doing that and not taking responsibility... We did a lot of things when we were naked," I said.

"Hehe, it's embarrassing, but yeah," said Maria.

"That's right, you did a lot of things to me," said Lida.

"You will marry me? That's what you meant, right?" Mel clarified.

"That's right, we didn't cross the final line, but I have to take responsibility for what I did... However, we forgot an important thing. We are former members of the Hero (Yuusha) Party and important people. Even though we retired, we must marry properly," I said.

"Don't you think it's a hassle?" said Maria.

"I think so too," said Lida.

"I also think so," said Mel.

"No, we have to follow proper procedures," I said

What are these guys talking about?

Lida and Mel would laugh, but not Maria.

"So, it's true that the main wife is Princess Marin, and everyone else, including Luna-chan, is a concubine... But is that all?" Maria said.

"Hmm, and then, Zect will take the virginity of Princess Marin first, and we'll go next... Is that right?" said Lida.

"I see, as long as we're careful about that," said Mel

"No, it won't be that easy. Everyone has their own position," I said.

"But... since Ceres-sama hasn't had a church wedding yet, I think it's better to have Ceres-sama perform the ceremony first since Mariane-sama and the others will be there," Maria said.

"Yeah, if we have it after Ceres-sama, it'll be fine," said Lida.

"Lida... We're Ceres-sama's vassals, you know! But Zect, is there anything else we need to be aware of?" said Mel

"We're important people. So we need to inform various places, right?" I said.

"Zect... Don't forget. The highest person in this world is Ceres-sama... In terms of the position of the church, he's like a real god, you know?" Maria said.

"Yes, that's right. Ceres is the most important, it's common sense!" said Lida.

"Lida... you should call him, Ceres-sama! But since our childhood friend is a real god, all we have to do is tell him 'I want to marry Zect' when he come back," said Mel.

"Don't you think it's a hassle?" asked Maria.

"I think so too," said Lida.

"I also think so," said Mel.

"No, we have to follow proper procedures," I said.

What are these guys talking about?

Lida and Mel would laugh, but not Maria.

"Yeah, it's true that the main wife is Princess Marin, and everyone else, including Luna-chan, is a concubine... But is that all?" Maria asked.

"Yeah, and then, Zect will take the virginity of Princess Marin first, and we'll go next... Is that okay?" said Lida.

"That's right, as long as we're careful about that," said Mel.

"No, it won't be that easy. Everyone has their own position," I said.

"But... since Ceres-sama hasn't had a church wedding yet, I think it's better to have Ceres-sama perform the ceremony first since Mariane-sama and the others will be there," suggested Maria.

"Yeah, if we have it after Ceres-sama, it'll be fine," said Lida.

"Lida... We're Ceres-sama's vassals, you know! But Zect, is there anything else we need to be aware of?" asked Mel.

"We're important people. So we need to inform various places, right?" I said.

"Zect... Don't forget. The highest person in this world is Ceres-sama... In terms of the position of the church, he's like a real god, you know?" reminded Maria.

"Yes, that's right. Ceres is the most important, it's common sense!" said Lida.

"Lida... you should call him, Ceres-sama! But since our childhood friend is a real god, all you have to do is tell him 'I want to marry Zect' when he come back," said Mel.

Um... let's see...

Right, there's a statue of Ceres in the church next to the goddess statue, called the "Divine Dragon Ceres."

So, should we just talk to the parties involved and report back to Ceres?

There's Princess Marianne, Princess Frey, and the previous saint, Cecilia-sama...

All of them are his wives and the demon people call him 'the Great Demon King' as their ruler.

Sigh~ Do I have to rely on Ceres again?

I've already dumped everything on him in this world, and now I'm dealing with "women issues."

Well, now that I think about it, Ceres is my stepfather...this will be the last time I ask for help.

"Yeah, that sounds about right."

That's all I could say.

* * *

"I see... I had forgotten that Zect-sama's childhood friend is Ceres-sama's childhood friend too... We just need to decide the hierarchy among the parties involved... I will be the main wife, and I will decide on the head concubine, and then leave the rest to Ceres-sama... Yes, that should be good... Afterwards, I will discuss with Marianne-oneesama and decide on the ceremony for Ceres-sama... That's all we need to decide," said Maria.

"The ceremony for Ceres, huh?" said Lida.

"Yes, Zect-sama. I heard that Ceres-sama did not have a church wedding because they had a guild wedding... we have to take that into consideration. If Ceres-sama and the others don't hold their wedding ceremony in a church, we need to have a guild wedding in Ceres-sama's presence, I think," said Mel.

That's right, Princess Marianne, the first princess, didn't have a wedding ceremony, so it might be weird for the second princess, Marin, to have one...

"Then let's go with that plan," I said.

"Yes, I think it's a good idea," replied Maria

"She's right! I agree," added Lida.

"Yes, I think that's fair," added Mel

"""Now, who should be chosen as Zect's first concubine? (Now, who should be chosen as Zect's first concubine then?) (!) (choose?)""" asked Maria.

"That would be Luna, right?" said Zect.

"...Zect, me?" asked Luna, surprised.

"Yes, Luna," replied Zect.

"But why, Zect!? I know Princess Marin is the main wife... but why is Luna-chan the first in line?" asked Maria.

"Well, we have...a certain relationship, don't we?" replied Zect.

"You mean like that time we...did things? Don't tell me you did that with someone as small as Luna-chan," said Maria, incredulously.

What the hell are these guys talking about?

"I never said anything like that to Marine or Luna, but when I lost everything and was feeling down, Luna was there for me as a source of emotional support. If I hadn't met Luna, I might still be struggling to get back on my feet. That's why I can't compromise on this," I said.

"Well it's true that Zect was going through a tough time and Luna was there for you," Maria replied.

"I agree... we weren't there for Zect... but for Ceres," Lida added.

"Lida... you talk too much...but you're right, of course. There's no arguing with that," Mel apologized.

Good.

If someone had objected here, it would have been a problem.

'I should have chosen Ceres back then,' I muttered to myself.

I'm glad I didn't say that because I didn't want to say that.

"It's almost a done deal now," I remarked

"""""I guess so. (Yeah, right.)"""""

Maybe because Ceres was involved... it was an easy decision.

Now we just have to wait for Ceres to come back.
