Extra's Harem: Invincibility Starts with Marriage and lots of Children-Chapter 87 - Brain Not Braining

"No, I—I—" Seeing Aleriana fumble as she was surprised by my words, which showed a completely different side from a moment ago when she had burned like hell towards both Prista and Olea, made me amused.

But it wasn't enough to make me forget why I had brought her here in this room.

"I am not the real Kyle, Aleriana," I stated, realizing this could be a foolish decision on my part.

But again, in the future, it could create a misunderstanding if she really thought of me as the real Kyle and later found out that I was fake.

'!'

"Huh? What?" Aleriana's voice, as she was trying to clarify the previous statement, seemed interrupted mid-sentence as she stood there loosening her hand, which was trying to protest.

I heard her clear enough from her reaction, as she seemed to not understand the meaning of my words.

"To be exact, my name is Leon, not Kyle, who is the illegitimate prince of the Arcutus Duchy," I clarified, keeping my eyes fixed on her body language, which was clearly surprised and seemed much more composed than I thought, as she placed her hand on her chin as if considering something.

"So, he must have sent you in his stead, knowing he would die by my hands? Is this correct?"

'!'

'Whoa,' With her eyes turning towards me, as it appeared, she clearly saw through everything, without me needing to clarify further. This made me somewhat relieved that, unlike the side she had shown since last night, it was different.

"Yes, exactly. I was prepared in case something were to happen to the real Kyle," I added, and given that I had no memories of Leon's training days, I just ruffled my hair, averting my gaze as I was trying to think of what to say next. But before processing anything further, I found myself in a hug.

'!'

A warm one, accompanied by her voice, "Everything will be alright."

".....Don't you hate that I am not the real Kyle?" With my eyes widening for a moment before relaxing, I felt slightly hesitant as I looked at her hair, placing my chin on her shoulder given the height similarity. I was expectant about her answer, as my being not real did have the probability that it could lead to her having some issues with the Arcutus family.

Of course, no one knew about this except me and now her, but I just wanted to share with her.

"Why would I? I love you for what you are," she said reassuringly, as her hand tightened over the fabric of my robe, making it feel somewhat warm. However, I didn't want to flow with this emotion as romance should be in the light, not in the broad daylight.

"Ahem, no romance, wife—" Even though I did not want to push her away, I tried to grab her shoulder to focus on the matter at hand, but my hand halted the moment I heard her voice.

"You seem to have a fetish for giving rings to women."

'!'

My body flinched as I halted, seeing her slowly retreat as she looked towards me with a sharp gaze as though taking out her suppressed anger, which finally came out after I thought the matter was solved.

"Haha, no, no, sit, sit, let me explain," I said, chuckling as I directed her and guided her to sit on the bed before turning towards the system's inventory and clicking it.

Thud, thud.

One after another, a total of six dead bodies came out of it. Given a time freeze, the bodies were as precious as they were the time I killed them.

"These rings belonged to these people," I stated, turning towards Aleriana, who seemed to transition from an impassive demeanor to one of clear surprise. Her eyes seemed glued to Kyle's face, which looked completely similar to mine.

"Doesn't he look like me—"

"So intel about him being in the 2nd Layer was indeed true," she interrupted my words as Aleriana stood and used her foot to lift Kyle's face, giving a cold, downcast gaze to him. I felt a chill for some reason as there was a different feeling in her eyes.

'Is she fantasizing about killing me?' For a moment, that thought crossed my mind, which I swiftly dismissed.

'Come on, she loves me, so....' Even though I said that, I halted mid-thought as I observed the smirk on her face, making me gulp significantly as I kept trying to understand what was going through her mind.

"Husband, tell Olea about Kyle's death," she said before turning her gaze towards me, which seemed much more approachable and open-hearted than a moment ago.

"What? Why? I can just tell her after—" I wanted to mention how I could tell her after marrying her, given I could not guarantee her trust. But I halted, knowing that mentioning this now would only hurt Aleriana, as things seemed to be normalizing, and bringing this up would ruin her mood.

"No, she would kill you before even marriage happens," Aleriana said, shaking her head, which clearly made me agree with her. Given the chances of Olea actually killing me were higher, as her anger overshadowed all my impressions on her.

"...I know, but," I understood that Aleriana was trying to help by suggesting how I should reveal this to Olea to win her trust. By doing so, it would psychologically loosen her mental defenses against my words, making it easier for me to impress her. This was possible, but somehow, as I rubbed my head, I felt reluctance in doing it before marriage.

Unlike Aleriana, with whom I had married without an option, and miraculously she accepted me in such a way, this was not the case with Olea. Marrying her and hoping that afterwards, any chemistry would build between us would likely be negligible, considering she would always see me as her enemy. After revealing that I am not Kyle, she would even lose the small speck of leverage she could have used against the Arcutus family, leading to her complete loss of interest in me.

So, no, I wanted Olea to first keep me above her revenge, so that, in the future, in the case of a severe situation, I could make her take rational decisions instead of her recklessly choosing options that might hurt me or her for the sake of revenge.

And I could only develop that kind of bond between us before revealing that I am not Kyle Arcutus.

"Hm, I see. So, you didn't fall for that," Aleriana seemed to murmur something as she shook her head, causing me to stand there looking into her eyes as she stood with folded hands, making me realize that this woman literally wanted me to just do what she wanted, so that Olea would lose interest in me, and even if we married somehow, she would not give priority to our relationship.

'But weren't you in love with me, wife?'

:: Haha, it just started. You will soon get the perks of marrying multiple wives. ::

"Wife, but didn't you agreed for me to marry?", I brought up the consent I took from her in form of the permission of polygamy and even few moments ago in the training arena she said how Olya would be second to her making me suppose that she had accepted her as my wife.

"Haah....Husband", Aleriana exhaled as she approached me, her eyes clearly possessive. She stretched her hand to my collar, adjusting it while keeping her gaze fixed on it.

Then, with her forefinger, she tapped my chin and, in a hushed, melodious voice as neared my ears, said, "I will follow your intentions in my way...."

I felt her lips, dryly brushing over my cheek, teeth grazing a bit while warm breath tickled my skin as I remained static while she glided towards my ears while speaking in that obsessive voice," Either way, your ways will remain uninterrupted—rest assured, as the first wife, it is my responsibility to uphold the ways that align with yours."

With her voice drawing closer, she continued speaking, and my mind was still processing her words. She leaned in, biting my earlobe before, in an intoxicating voice, she said, "By the way, do you understand what I just said, darling~?"

[ Nope, my brain not braining, what's about yours, Host ]
