To become a king and a magician

On the surface, there are indeed only three, but based on Ayaka Sajo's understanding of this man, it's impossible for him to go to a place without having some contact with a local woman. And in the past ten years, he has been to quite a few places.

The total number of ships must be in the double digits, right?

If she could, Aika Sajou would have loved for him to only have eyes for her, but that was no longer possible. Although she was the first, she was now effectively the fourth.

(Forget it, I'll just gradually make him unable to leave me. Anyway, the only troublesome one is that nightmare; the rest are nothing to worry about. With my other self by my side, none of them will be a problem.)

Whether it's the mage or the clock tower lord—those two are practically insurmountable to ordinary people, they're only slightly troublesome to Ayaka Sajō. Merry is the most troublesome one.

However, there's absolutely no need to consider those things right now. If you ask why...

(This world is my home turf now.)

Question: If you were home alone and none of the other people who might distract you from playing games were there, what would you do?

That would definitely mean following one's own ideas and playing however one wants!

The situation of Ayaka Sajou is similar to this now.

"Alright, let's go back, Tiger."

Switching to their childhood sweetheart dynamic, Sajou Aika reached through Natsukawa Torato's arm and hooked her arm around him, leaning against him with a smile.

Meanwhile, Artoria, who had been forcibly excluded by Ayaka Sajou since the beginning, looked at the situation before her and couldn't help but recall some things she had heard a long time ago when she was still in Camelot.

(I feel like Merlin and Sir Kay would get along really well with the Master...)

——————————————————————————————

In the real world, watching the images on the television.

Both Merry and Sajou Rei, who were watching, chuckled softly.

"It seems your plan is going very smoothly," Meryl said, looking at Sajou Rei. "That's good, too. Little Aika is a ticking time bomb, and if she can be rendered powerless, it's a good thing for everyone."

"However... that makes it the fourth one. Our king is truly sinful. Ever since he was persuaded to get together with Aoko, the size of his harem has been expanding little by little. Shouldn't we start preparing to buy a big villa?"

Considering the current number of people and the potential increase, a sufficiently large villa is definitely necessary. Sleeping in different rooms every night and waking up in different beds the next day—Merry could easily imagine what kind of life Natsukawa Tora would lead.

Although, based on his combat strength, one or two people should be no match for him; it would take at least three or four people.

(The current number of people is just right... but there are quite a few potential people. Should we do something else to get the remaining few to join as well?)

Thinking of this, Merry looked at Sajou Rei beside her.

Noticing her gaze, Sajou Rei shifted her position slightly: "Looks like you're up to something again, Miss Meryl."

"Haha, did you get it?"

"It's so obvious, and it's easy to guess what you're thinking."

Watching her master on TV embracing another version of herself, Sajou Rei touched her [Power Reactor]: "The current master isn't actually juggling four relationships, but five."

"Have you included yourself in the calculation?"

“Because I am one with my other self, and besides, if she wants to survive, my existence is essential. So from the very beginning, I have been the master’s possession,” Sajou Rei laughed. “In the end, as his puppet, where else can I go but to be with him?”

From the moment of her birth, Sajou Rei was destined to never escape Natsukawa Torato's grasp.

Sajou Rei did not object to this outcome.

24. Primitive life forms are on the rise!

I opened my eyes again to the sound of the alarm clock.

Looking at the blonde girl who immediately came into view, Natsukawa Tora sighed helplessly: "Is it the same today? Aika."

"Yes, good morning, Tiger. It's another beautiful sunny day."

Lying on the same bed as Natsukawa Tora, Sajou Aika greeted him with a smile, "It's eight in the morning. It's still early if you want to go to school. Do you want to sleep a little longer?"

"No, no need. How am I supposed to sleep like this?"

Sitting up in bed, Natsukawa Tora threw off his blankets—

"You're wearing your school uniform today."

"Because Tiger, you don't really like my overly enthusiastic attitude, I'll tone it down a bit from now on."

(If possible, I hope you can tone it down to the point of not crawling into my bed in the morning.)

A week ago, after Natsukawa Torato accepted her advances, Sajou Aika, who outwardly maintained her childhood friend persona, became increasingly proactive. Previously, while their interactions were intimate, there was always a certain degree of romantic tension between them, but now...

Because he has the key to the Natsukawa family home, Natsukawa Tora wakes up every morning to find Sajou Aika lying in his arms. Sometimes she's in pajamas, sometimes in a dress, and sometimes in a maid outfit, always dressed in a new outfit every day.

Although Natsukawa Tiger genuinely felt great to have such a feast for the eyes every morning.

"Speaking of which, where's Leah? She should be up by now, right?"

Without any attempt to conceal the presence of a woman in the room, Natsukawa Tiger asked as he changed his clothes.

Blushing and glancing furtively at Natsukawa Tora's body, Sajou Aika replied, "It should be in the kitchen downstairs, right? I asked her to watch the kitchen, and I started preparing breakfast before I came."

"You've worked hard. What's for breakfast this morning?"

"Western style, serving six, is this the perfect amount for Tiger?"

Saya Aika probably knows Natsukawa Torata's appetite better than Gray and Merry; a six-person serving is just right for breakfast.

After watching him get dressed, she got off the bed and handed the already packed schoolbag to Natsukawa Tora: "Okay, that's fine. Tora looks good in anything, even the standard school uniform."

"Is it the same with women's clothing?"

"Hmm, I remember Tiger wore women's clothes before, like in Paris. He looked a bit like me when I grew up."

Is it Sajō Aika after she grew up?

Natsukawa Torama looked at Sajou Aika, who only reached his waist, bent down, hugged her, and lifted her up in front of him: "Can you still grow taller now?"

"The physical appearance has no meaning to me. In this world, because I am a consciousness, I can change my appearance. It's the same in the outside world, since my body was a puppet back then."

After she finished speaking, Aika Sajou's body underwent some visible changes. Her original height of 1.4 meters rapidly increased to 1.7 meters, and her petite figure became comparable to Aoko's.

However, unlike the changes in her body, the size of Aika Sajou's clothes did not change. As a result, her excessively large bust caused one of the buttons on her clothes to pop out and bounce forcefully onto Natsukawa Torato's head.

Sajō Aika's face instantly turned red, and because her head was flicked, Natsukawa Tora lost his balance for a moment, and he and Sajō Aika fell backward together!

"Bang—"

A loud bang suddenly came from Natsukawa Tora's room.

Outside, hearing the sounds coming from the room, Artoria, wearing an apron, opened the door curiously: "Master, I just heard a voice, are you alright—"

Before she could finish speaking, as she opened the door, what came into Artoria's view was Natsukawa Tora lying on the ground, and a blonde beauty with a figure comparable to Aozaki Aoko on top of him.

Looking at the two balls that were almost crushed and deformed, Artoria's eyebrows twitched several times.

"Oh? It's Lia. I'm alright..."

"Hmm, it seems like everything's fine."

A voice as cold as a December wind came from the Knight Queen's mouth. With a frosty face, Artoria, who was standing at the door, took two steps back: "It seems I came at the wrong time. Master, please continue. You can come down for breakfast after you've finished your business."

"boom!"

The door was slammed shut.

Natsukawa Torara helped Sajou Aika sit up: "Are you angry?"

“Obviously,” Ayaka Sajou laughed. “Compared to that, what do you think, Tora? Me now?”

"Your breasts are too big for you. Maybe it's because I'm used to seeing you in your teenage form. But you're cute no matter what you look like."

Natsukawa Tora bluntly expressed his inner thoughts.

Hearing this straightforward praise, Saya Aika, whose skin was always as thin as a cicada's wing in front of her beloved, had her defenses completely shattered. She immediately bent down shyly, grabbed Natsukawa Tora's clothes tightly, and buried herself deeply in his chest.

Patting her on the back, Xia Chuanhu said with a wry smile, "Aige, if you keep dragging me like this, I won't be able to get up, and I won't be able to eat the breakfast you prepared with such care."

"Yes, that's true."

Raising her head and pointing to the side of her face, Aika Sajou blushed and said, "Here... I'll get up if you do as I say."

"Yes, Your Royal Highness."

As the voice faded, the warmth emanating from her cheek made Ayaka Sajou feel like her heart was about to leap out of her chest.

--------------------------

A few minutes later, inside the restaurant.

Artoria, already seated at the dining table, looked at the two people coming down the stairs: "Is it over? Master, Aika."

"I didn't do anything. What happened just now was just an accident. Do you really think I'm a beast that doesn't care about the time or place?"

“In Meryl’s words, it’s not surprising that Master does anything; you have very poor self-control,” Artoria said. “However, whatever you do is none of my business, but I hope you can be more mindful of your words and actions.”

I've been completely misunderstood. I can't clear my name now, no matter what I do.

(Aika, you should explain yourself... but it seems that won't work. She's probably quite happy to see this misunderstanding happen.)

Seeing the misunderstanding with Artoria and the still-dazed Ayaka Sajou from the good morning kiss, Natsukawa Tora sighed helplessly, sat down at the dining table, and habitually turned on the TV to watch the morning news.

According to the latest reports, a unique meteorite has recently been discovered on the International Space Station...

25. Xia Chuan Airlines, everyone who has used it says it's good.

Generally speaking, before a monster appears, some unusual phenomena are sure to occur. For example, the rainbow light that appears in the sky before the appearance of angels and the voices that can grant wishes that some people hear—if there are these signs, it can basically be confirmed that it is a monster.

Now, watching the morning news on TV, Natsukawa Torato subconsciously looked at Sajou Aika: "The special meteorite that was suddenly observed, and the properties analyzed from the surface indicate that it is very likely a kind of organism... Aika, your power fragments can even materialize something like this?"

"Who knows? Although it is indeed a part of my power, I don't really know what those fragments of power will eventually become. After all, once I shattered my own power, they no longer belonged to me."

Sajo Aika laughed.

"However... the meteorite is quite unexpected. Just as I thought, after confirming that the angels could not defeat you, the remaining fragments of power decided not to fight individually, but to combine their strength to defeat the tiger in one fell swoop. But it is really unexpected that it will manifest in this way."

"Does your fragment of power still possess its own consciousness?"

"No, I think it's just instinct."

The instinct not to be destroyed, the instinct to fight against the Holy Sword Wielder... that's roughly it. In a sense, they can be considered a kind of living being, and the instinct for survival is something every living being has.

They instinctively sensed that if they continued to evolve individually, they would be easily taken down by Natsukawa Tiger, so they united.
