"What was that noise?" A tired voice called from the top of the stairs. "Adrian we heard a loud boom... are you okay?" Stepping down into view, Celeste had Reika’s tail wrapped around her, protecting her it seemed. "Whats this pink– who the fuck is that?" Celeste yelled, quickly stepping down the final few steps.

I lay there on the floor, broken wood and tile scattered around. Valka had landed on top of me facing away, her thicc hips hugging mine. It honestly took everything in me not to smack her ass before crawling out of this ’situation’, I didn’t however. I noticed the wand on the floor across the dining area, discarded and dead. Mentally saying RIP to the item I called for it to disappear, once it was gone I stood up and tried to calm the situation.

"Uhhh... This is Valka, she is the newest member of our manor," I scratched the back of my head out of habit before continuing. "She followed the mana signature from our ’activities’ last night..." Rekia and Celeste’s face both turning red as I talked. "Please welcome her into the manor, and while you’re at it... Valka, we need to fix the door," I said, pointing at the open hole in my home. "This is your fault, fix it..."

After hearing my explanation the girls joined Valka in fixing the door first, watching them together made something in me vibrate with happiness. The words of the perverted god echoed in his mind, "Fight the Demon Lord", I’m sure that’s what he said but with the way this was going I would be doing something else that started with the letter F.

The sound of the three beauties in front of me playfully bantering pulled me back to the present, noticing the door had been fully patched. They had for the most part pieced the door back together and covered the hole where Valka’s body had been trapped. How it was being held together I couldn’t tell you though.

"You guys work fast, to be honest I spaced out for the last part..." I said as I looked over their handiwork. "Thank you... I’m sure the manor is happy as well,"

As soon as I finished the sentence a dick shaped notification phased into my view.

[ Harem Manor: ⅗ Members ]

[ Condition: Mending ]

Followed by a new window, it was growing in size as the seconds passed.

[ 60% Threshold Met! ]

[ UPGRADE! ]

[ 3! ] 𝒇𝒓𝒆𝒆𝙬𝒆𝒃𝓷𝒐𝓿𝙚𝙡.𝒄𝓸𝒎

[ 2! ]

[ 1! ]

Once the countdown dropped to zero, a bright light similar to what happened during the world event, proceeded to blind all of us. The girls squealing and creaking wood could be heard as the ground vibrated around us. All at once the light died out, revealing an almost brand new manor, with a slightly different layout. The front door was fixed and a few new rooms could be seen. More furniture than what we had bought appeared and had decorated the living area.

[ CONVERSION COMPLETE ]

[ INCREASE MANOR TO ⅘ FOR NEXT UPGRADE ]

They all looked to me for an answer. "I can kinda explain... come take a seat,"

The girls followed me over to the table, over the next hour or so I explained our situation. I explained that I had a unique power that resulted in a system demanding I build a harem, I even explained how the manor just showed up out of nowhere. Reika backed me up on that fact since it appeared in her domain. Valka watched with intent the whole time, looking to the other girls for confirmation anytime I said something absurd, they would just nod in agreement.

"So the little man..." Valka cleared her throat, cutting off her sentence. "...Adrian requires more concubines?" again looking to the others for confirmation. "What am I required to do then?"

"Try your best to fit in, you’re a member of the house now..." I answered earnestly hoping it would lower her defenses a little bit. "And if you need something, make sure you ask..." I stood from the table, excited to explore the new rooms. "Let’s see just what the system did to our home."

All of us set out to explore the expanded manor, Reika plopped herself down on the new large cushioned couch in the living area, letting out a loud purr in approval of the soft new fabric.We moved room by room after that, trying to figure out what had changed and what had only been cleaned up. The kitchen was bigger now, with actual counters instead of cracked boards pretending to be useful. The storage room had shelves, the bathing room had been expanded, and somehow the manor had decided we needed enough towels to survive a flood.

Celeste kept looking around like she was afraid touching anything would make it vanish.

Reika had already claimed the couch as part of her personal territory.

Valka followed slower than the rest of us, her eyes moving over every wall and doorway with the look of someone trying to decide if the building was alive or merely insane. To be fair, I was still asking myself the same question.

At the end of the upper hall, one door stood open.

"That’s your bedroom door isn’t it Adrian?" Celeste said. "Was the door already open earlier?"

"I’m not sure, wanna go check it out," I answered, because apparently transmigration had not taught me survival instincts.

The room beyond it was massive, slowly walking toward it, I stopped in the doorway.

In the center of the room sat the biggest bed I had ever seen in my life. It was wide enough to make a king look lonely, covered in dark red blankets, soft pillows, and enough polished wood to make me wonder if the manor had murdered a forest while we weren’t looking.

For a long moment nobody said anything, then Reika’s tail started wagging, Celeste’s face went red so fast I thought she might actually catch fire.

Valka tilted her head, studying the bed with complete seriousness. "This is a battlefield," she said.

"No," Celeste snapped immediately.

A notification appeared before I could agree with either of them.

[ MASTER BEDROOM UNLOCKED ]
