I already knew that Kkamang was Marianne.

I started suspecting it ever since Marianne and the hero party barged into my dream, and I even obtained concrete evidence by using the distortion magic cast on the Elven Forest.

But.

I had been pretending not to know until now.

Why?

Because that’s what Ellis wanted.

For the fairness of the first wife battle.

Because I planned to reveal Marianne after the entire hero party had gathered.

So I played along.

The hero party naturally accepting Marianne was all thanks to Ellis.

Ellis convinced everyone,

and even went as far as acting alone to secretly recruit Marianne.

So, as a way of repaying her, I matched her pace.

‘Though it’s not like it really means anything.’

First of all, the very concept of a “first wife battle” doesn’t even hold up.

Why?

Because the only woman who actually cares about becoming the first wife is Ellis—just her, and no one else.

The rest have no interest in the title.

Lia?

She’s the type who’d be satisfied as long as I pet her, have sex with her, marry her, and live with her until we grow old and die.

She doesn’t care about the title of “first wife” at all.

Sophia?

Same with her.

As long as she can call Serena “Mother,” she couldn’t care less about the order.

Big Sister Fine?

Hmm…

This one was a bit ambiguous.

I hadn’t used the distortion magic to hear her true thoughts,

and the time we’d spent traveling together was relatively short.

It was far too soon to gauge how much she actually desired the position of first wife.

But.

Judging by the standards of the Prophecy RPG, she wasn’t the type to care much about the “first wife” title.

She was the kind of older sister who valued family harmony above all else,

the type who’d mediate when the other wives fought and gently coax them into getting along.

That’s the kind of person she was.

Not the type to fight for the position of first wife.

Serena?

She didn’t care about the order either.

She was just excited to experience marriage, sex, and love for the first time in her life.

If anything, her only concern was—

Human lifespans are too short, so happy times don’t last long?

That’s why she’s planning to turn me into a god.

She had no interest in the first wife position,

only in my lifespan.

Lastly, Rumi.

The last member of the hero party, who hasn’t even been recruited yet,

and one of the harem members.

But she’s a bit of an odd case to even call a heroine.

Why?

To sum Rumi up in one word—she’s a pet.

She couldn’t care less about something like the first wife position.

As long as she’s fed well and played with, she’s happy every single day.

For reference, “playing” mostly means scratching her chin, rubbing her belly, and playing with toys like a real cat—

but it also includes sex.

Because beastfolk are a species that go into heat.

On days when her urges are overwhelming, she’s the type who can only be satisfied by being thoroughly impaled by her master’s thick, mighty club.

But.

Put another way, that’s all she really needs.

Relieving her sexual urges during heat.

As long as that’s taken care of, she doesn’t care about anything else.

Whoever becomes the first wife.

Whoever is loved the most.

A pet only needs to eat, sleep, and play in the corner of the living room.

That’s Rumi’s life.

That covers the hero party.

Aside from Ellis, no one cares about the first wife position.

So.

The first wife battle is meaningless.

‘Though things might’ve been different if Marianne had cared about the position…’

But Marianne doesn’t care either.

Because she’s my favorite character.

Because she’s the woman closest to being the first wife.

Even if she’s the most advantaged in the first wife battle,

Marianne has no such thoughts.

First kiss?

First experience?

First wife?

It doesn’t matter if she’s not the first.

She’d be satisfied no matter the order.

As long as she can kiss.

As long as she can experience it.

As long as she can marry.

The number didn’t matter.

What mattered was that it happened.

…That’s Marianne’s mindset.

I confirmed it when she was under the distortion magic in the Elven Forest.

‘Well… people’s thoughts change over time… so her feelings now might be different from back then…’

But it’s probably still similar, right?

So.

Even if I became lovers with Marianne right now, it wouldn’t cause any major issues.

…That’s what I told Ellis.

“You mean I’m the only one who cares about being the first wife?!”

“Yeah?”

“Are you serious?! None of you actually care about the first wife position?!”

“As long as I get Master’s head pats, I don’t care about the order!”

Lia answered brightly.

“As long as I can be with Lady Serena and my husband, I don’t mind any position.”

Sophia answered serenely.

“I-I also… as long as I can be with all of you… the order… well… since I joined last… I’ll go last… I can… hold out for now…”

Big Sister Fine answered while trembling.

“I don’t mind being last. As long as I get to do it.”

Serena answered with a slightly expectant expression.

“I’m fine with it too. But… if I may ask one thing… I’d like to feed on the energy released when you all have sex… it’s just… succubi love that kind of thing… the energy released when people in love have sex is really delicious… so I really want to taste it… would that be okay?…”

For Marianne, the energy took priority over the order.

Well…

I could allow that much.

“Beside” didn’t necessarily mean right next to the bed.

She could just absorb the energy from the next room,

or we could even enjoy a threesome.

There were plenty of ways.

The others had already given Marianne permission to feed on their energy.

I just needed to agree too.

‘If absorbing energy was something really bad, I might’ve refused…’

But it’s not harmful at all.

Energy is just the energy released when experiencing sexual pleasure.

It’s not energy being drained from my body.

It’s energy that’s naturally released.

Whether Marianne consumes it or not, it’s energy that would naturally dissipate anyway.

So I allowed it.

“You can absorb as much energy as you want.”

“Kain!…”

“Or do you want to try absorbing some right now?”

“H-Huhk!…”

“Now that the secret’s out, we might as well do it now.”

“R-Right now?!…”

“Why? Don’t want to?”

“I-I… I-I… I do! I really do! But… the last member…”

“Don’t worry about her.”

Her affection is already maxed out,

and she’s not the type to change her attitude just because I did something with another woman.

“H-Hueek!…”

Marianne reverted from her cat form to her succubus appearance.

“You’re beautiful.”

“H-Hueeeek!…”

Marianne’s face turned red.

But.

She didn’t back away.

With a pounding heart, she slowly stepped forward.

As a result.

The two of us were close enough to feel each other’s breath.

“Marianne.”

“Y-Yes…”

“What you said in the dream… you meant it, right?”

“D-Dream?… Aah!… Y-You remembered?!”

“Of course. I thought it was weird from the start, and after waking up, seeing your reactions made me realize something was up.”

“Aah…”

“So? Did you mean it?”

“Y-Yes…”

“I like you. Will you accept my confession?”

“Y-Yes…”

“Will you accept lewd things too?”

“That’s… actually something I’d like to ask for… since I am a succubus, after all… I like lewd things…”

“Then can I do whatever I want?”

“Y-Yes… do as you please… I’m a succubus… so having the person I love pour their lust into me is my greatest happiness…”

Greatest happiness, huh…

Then I’ll give it to her.

Squelch!

“H-Hyut!”

I immediately groped Marianne’s chest.

Since she was wearing a skimpy, bikini-like outfit typical of succubi, I could feel the full sensation of her breasts even through the fabric.

Soft.

Warm.

“H-Haaa…”

As I moved my hands, I touched other places too.

With every touch, Marianne’s breathing grew faster.

“Marianne.”

“Y-Yes…”

“I’ll kiss you now.”

“Y-Yes…”

Mwah!

I even kissed her.

Pushing my tongue in, I savored it deeply.

“H-Hweee…”

“How was it?”

“It was good…”

“I liked it too.”

The two of us looked at each other.

A loving couple.

It felt like all the intermediate steps had been skipped,

but in the end, she became my lover.

So.

Now, I could just drag her to bed and start the 19+ event scene!…

“Kain?”

“What.”

“Aren’t you going to finish the robot?”

“……”

I hesitated for a moment.

Sexy time with my favorite character?

Or completing the five-stage fusion transformation Black Flame Dragon robot?

“Hmm…”

I glanced at Lia for a moment.

Lia, who can create 500 clones.

Though they have less HP than the original,

their stats and intelligence are 100% identical.

‘Lia’s also talented at crafting.’

Her ice sculpting skills are nearly as perfect as mine,

and she’s a skilled mage.

500 of such heroes.

With this, we could finish all the work within an hour.

‘Let’s play after finishing.’

I asked Lia for help.

“Lia.”

“Yeah!”

“Can you make clones and help build the robot according to these blueprints?”

“Yeah! Just leave it to me!”

Lia grinned brightly and clung to me.

Then.

She whispered in my ear.

“After you’re done with Marianne, it’s my turn, right? Hehe.”

“Uh… sure?…”

Come to think of it, once I have sex with Marianne, the other wives will also unlock sex.

Meaning.

I’ll be getting the full course for an entire week.

‘I’m gonna die.’

I changed my mind.

If I have sex with Marianne now, I might actually die.

I’ll strengthen my stamina first, then enjoy the first night.

‘To strengthen my stamina…’

I’d have to consult Muscle Gay at the Demon King’s Castle.

‘Sigh…’

It’s decided then.

I’ll have my first experience with Marianne after finishing everything at the Demon King’s Castle.
