## Chapter 563 – The Little Match Girl

After completing the Saintess’s request, I stayed quietly at home as promised to my wives. It was starting to snow heavily anyway, so there wasn’t much else to do.

Plus, I had signed the Paladin contract.

Of course, it wasn’t like I did nothing at all; I just increased my training time. I also sparred with Karin without fail.

Since I’m basically a jobless bum when I don’t have work, I have to train hard at least.

I also cleared the snow around the house in preparation for future battles. Only endless self-improvement and preparation can bring future victory. Winter is originally that kind of season. Winia was also diligently practicing magic next to me.

“Heretic Swordsman!”

That bastard was quite strong.

Our swordsmanship was similar, but that was it.

I overwhelmed him in everything else.

Killing such a seemingly strong guy in an instant was clear evidence of my growth. I directly demonstrated the situation to Claudie and Karin, and they loved it.

My skills are definitely improving.

However, if I officially become a Paladin, even more dangerous things will happen frequently. Of course, nothing has changed. That’s what I’ve always done.

As I was spending my days like that, Karin said one day.

“Honey.”
“Hmm? What is it?”
“I kind of want to see that Liztina bitch’s face.”
“Ah.”
“Bring her.”

Karin was smirking.

When I asked her what was so good, she said it was nothing much, she just wanted to try something. Well, it was about time to introduce her anyway.

After discussing the details, I went to find Liztina.

“You’ve finally come, darling?”
“Am I late?”

I’ve been visiting her often recently, so I’m not late.

But this older sister also has a strong libido like Karin, so she didn’t want to be apart and was pulling on my wrist.

“Well… you are a bit late.”
“Hehehe, sorry. But Liz, babe.”
“What is it?”
“You should come to my house sometime. Karin wants to see you too. I think it’s about time to introduce you.”
“…”

We need to talk face to face anyway.

“Haa… Okay. I should meet them once.”

When I told her that, Liztina sighed and said.

“Since I’m going to say hello, I should buy a gift. We’ll be seeing each other often.”

A gift…!

“How can you have four wives… Well, I don’t really have any prejudice against that kind of thing, but I never thought I’d end up like this.”
“Hehehe, thanks, babe. For being my wife.”

With a heart full of gratitude, I hugged her, and she immediately hugged me back.

“Ugh… T-Then, let’s go buy a gift together. What do they like? I have a lot of money, so let’s pick something good.”
“Aah.”

For some reason, the white fur scarf around her shoulders seemed really genuine today. And so, I went on my first date with Liztina.

* * *

That weekend, I brought Liztina home.

“Hmm, you’re Liztina?”

Claudie, with a smile, approached Liztina and said. Her curved eyes were as seductive as ever. She was now appraising Liztina.

“Nice to meet you, I’m Claudie.”
“…My husband’s first wife. As expected of a half-elf, you’re beautiful. I’m honestly impressed.”

Liztina said that with a confident attitude.

“Oh my, thank you.”
“I’m Liztina Lybelvet. Guild Master of the Isvant Martial Arts Guild, I guess that’s enough of an introduction?”

Claudie nodded silently. Liztina seemed confident, but she looked quite nervous.

“Claudie. Liztina brought a gift. Look at this.”

I mentioned that to lighten the mood. Following my advice, she bought a lot of nice things. As expected, a woman with a lot of money was different.

Claudie smiled, pleased to see it.

“Hehehe, thank you for the gift. You brought a lot of things?”
“I’m glad you like it… W-Wait, wait a minute!”

Suddenly, Claudie went behind Liztina and naturally put her arms around her waist. Liztina, flustered, blushed and looked at me as if asking for help.

Hey, Claudie?

“More than that… you’re beautiful. Yeah. You have a good figure too.”
“Y-Yes? Wait, Claudie, what is this…!”

Claudie didn’t care about Liztina’s embarrassment and stroked her hips with her hands. She was wearing her usual cheongsam, so her hips were emphasized.

“You have the kind of body Katt would like. Your hips are big, so you’ll be able to have children easily… and your breasts are big too? Beautiful.”
“U-Ugh… A-As I heard, you are…!”

The hand stroking her hips began to move up little by little. Liztina could only look at me with pleading eyes, not knowing what to do.

I can’t let her be tormented any more.

“Claudie. Don’t tease her too much.”
“Hehehe, I’m not teasing her.”

Claudie, answering like that, seemed to be in a very good mood.

“Thank you for becoming Katt’s woman. I wanted to express my gratitude. Welcome?”
“T-That… Haa, as expected of an elf, you’re a bit unique. Thank you for welcoming me, Claudie. I look forward to getting along with you.”

After Claudie’s slightly intense greeting, Liztina naturally clung to me and whispered.

“You…! Please help me when I’m in trouble!”
“Hehehe, I did help you.”
“Still! I’m surrounded by women I’m meeting for the first time… Pay attention to me!”
“Okay. Don’t worry.”

I put my arm around her waist to reassure her. Well, she knew what she was getting into, so I won’t treat her too harshly, except for a little teasing.

Liztina is my woman now. I have to take that responsibility.

“What are you whispering about? Huh?”

As we were doing that, Karin said to us.
Liztina, immediately on alert, glared at her.

“Karin…!”
“Kyahaha, you’re so happy, aren’t you? Huh? Liztina. You’re so happy, aren’t you?”
“W-What’s so happy about…”
“Come here and sit down.”

Karin was sitting on the sofa with her legs crossed, wearing a very smug smile. She was in very comfortable clothes. Her usual outfit of roughly tied hair, underwear, and a dress shirt.

Liztina quietly went to the opposite side of her and sat demurely.

I also sat next to her.

“What’s so enjoyable, Karin?”

Her attitude was still sharp, but not too much, and Karin was just smiling. What is she thinking right now?

“Eung? Of course, I’m enjoying it. Ah, honey, don’t stay there, come next to me.”
“Yes.”
“N-No, you stay next to me! Where are you going! Are you going to leave me alone!”

As I got up, Liztina grabbed my wrist.

No, what am I supposed to do?

“Karin, babe? I think I should stay here next to her for now, since she’s a bit awkward?”

As I sat back down, Karin smiled and continued.

“Kyahaha, our husband has a new woman, so he doesn’t listen to his sister? Then your sister will get really, really angry. Come here quickly!”
“Liz, babe! I’ll go over there before I die!”
“Aah!”

I can’t stand it if I don’t go! As soon as I sat next to Karin, she put her arm around my shoulder and put her hand inside my clothes, fondling my chest.

“This is mine. Huh? Liztina, you’re the fifth, I’m the third. Understand?”

Is she claiming ownership now!

“Ugh…! Karin, you…!”

Liztina blushed at the sight.

“Kyahaha! Actually, I’m older too, right? Now call me Karin unni! And give up on the idea of messing with me with that weak fist!”
“Karin…! What’s so exciting! I’m a wife now too! We’re on equal footing, what the hell are you doing! How can you oppress your husband with force!”
“Eung, I was a wife first. Right? Honey?”

That’s a fact.
But..!

“Aigo, Karin, babe. Still, huh? Liztina is my woman now too. Don’t torment her too much.”
“No, I’m not tormenting her, I’m just laughing, you idiot. How did things turn out like this?”
“If you think about it, it all happened because of you…”

It all started with Karin.

“Well, is that so? Anyway, I’m the third, and you, Liztina, are the fifth. Got it? If you don’t call me unni, you’re dead.”
“No, why can’t I die.”

Liztina shouted when she heard that.

“D-Do you think I’ll call you unni if I do that, Karin! You’re the one who’s going to die!”
“This bitch dares?”

In an instant, sparks seemed to fly between the two. I can’t let them fight when I brought them here to say hello!

“Karin, babe! Calm down! You can’t fight here!”
“Hey, hey! Who’s fighting! Let go of me!”

As soon as I grabbed Karin’s waist and hung on, she shouted loudly and tried to shake me off. I’m weaker than my wife, so I can’t help but be swayed, and tears come out…!

“Karin…! For the sake of the future, we need to sort out the hierarchy! I’ll correct that vulgar habit of yours right now!”
“Alright, you bitch!”

At that moment, a real fight was about to break out, and Claudie stood up.

“Karin. Let’s calm down?”
“C-Claudie?”
“Liztina, calm down too.”
“Ugh…”

With just one word from her, the situation calmed down. We sat back down quietly.

“…Anyway.”

Karin, who had been silent for a while, opened her mouth.

“Our husband is having a hard time every night, so help him well. You know he has to do it all night to be satisfied, right? I believe our Liztina will do well.”
“D-Do you have to say that out loud…”
“What’s wrong? We all know it anyway. And you said you’d take responsibility for a guy with a wife, so you have to put up with that much.”
“Ugh…”
“Kyahaha, how dare you flirt with someone else’s husband. You’ll pay the price, so be prepared.”

It was the moment Karin spoke about responsibility.

“Karin unni? Is that something Karin unni should say?”

Winia, who had been sitting quietly, said.

“Huh? Ah, no, Winia. Here, I’m asserting my authority as the third wife…”
“Funny. You did that to a black guy and came to beg. I remember you begging politely back then.”

Come to think of it, that’s what happened.

“T-That’s…”

In an instant, Karin was silent, and Winia looked at Liztina.

“Um, Liztina, right? I won’t say much. If you’ve decided to become a black guy’s… no. If you’ve decided to become a wife, you have to take that responsibility. You will, right?”

Liztina nodded, speaking in a fairly calm tone.

“…I have to. What’s your name?”
“Winia. Call me whatever you want. I’ll do the same.”
“Then, Winia. Nice to meet you. You seem to be more reasonable than Karin.”

Was it because she saw a younger woman than herself? Liztina smiled, as if her excitement had subsided a bit. Then, Risha was left. Her gaze naturally turned to that side.

“Who’s the person over there…”
“This humble one is called Risha Leongreen.”
“…An elf?”

She asked, looking at Risha’s ears. Of course, Risha just nodded slowly, as if it were no big deal.

“H-How amazing, an elf…”
“Hehehe, that is not very important. More than that, I am very pleased that you brought a gift. Did you choose it together?”
“…Yes. We did.”

Risha had similar thoughts to Claudie. Her expression looked endlessly comfortable. Risha, who had been staring at Liztina for a while, continued.

“This humble one’s request is simple. Just give love to this humble one’s partner.”
“L-Love…”
“I will be angry if you break it. Welcome. Let us get along well in the future, Liztina. This humble one likes you.”

And so, Liztina’s greetings to her four wives were over. Liztina poked me in the waist, saying that she had something to talk about with me for a while.

“Hehehe, I’ll go talk for a while.”

She said that and immediately headed to the storage room.

As soon as she entered the storage room, Liztina clung to me and said.

“Really, they’re as unique as you are. No, and how can there be so many beauties… Anyway, the greetings are over. Now our relationship is official, right?”

ㅡHaa.

Then, she took a breath. Fortunately, she didn’t seem angry.

“But that Karin bitch…!”
“Well, it’ll be okay if we talk about it. I’ll tell her not to do that too much.”
“Karin doesn’t seem like the kind of woman who’ll listen to words.”
“If you talk in bed, she’ll listen to almost anything.”
“Ugh… T-That…”

Liztina blushed, rubbing her thighs when she heard that.

“Hehehe, well, how about Karin, Liz, and I have a good time together next time?”
“K-Karin and the three of us… Haa. Well. That would be natural for you, Katt.”
“That’s how it is.”

Honestly, the combination of Karin and Liztina is more exciting than I thought.

Well, let’s think about it next time.

After that, we all had a meal together and talked a bit more calmly.
