Chapter 1389: Far From Home [Part 2] Thirteen was prepared to fight against hordes of monsters. But he wasn’t prepared to face the inquiries of the beautiful women, who were all looking at him like he was their future son-in-law. When asked what was his relationship with Stella, Thirteen stated that they were just friends, and he already had five fiancees. He thought that this piece of information was enough to get the ladies off his back, but to his surprise, they looked at him as if he was a good man. "Only five fiancees? That’s great!" "Hahaha! Rookie numbers." "Stella, have you told him how many wives your father has right now?" "If it’s only five then adding one more wouldn’t make that much of a difference, right?" Thirteen blinked once then twice because it seems that Stella’s mothers were all speaking a language he didn’t understand. He was doing his best to make them understand that he and Stella were just friends, but they seemed to think otherwise. "Mrs. Belle, where am I exactly?" Thirteen asked. Since using common sense against the ladies wasn’t working, he decided to change the topic for the time being. "Good question," Belle replied with a smile. "We are now in a world called Hestia, and you are in the Ainsworth Empire. The greatest empire in this world. How is it? Are you now more open to becoming my daughter’s fiance?" "Mom!" Stella tried to cover her mother’s face, but her other mothers grabbed hold of her, dragged her away, and covered her lips. "I’m sorry, but Stella and I are really just friends," Thirteen repeated. "So you say, but you’re not denying the possibility of her becoming your fiance, right?" Belle smirked. "Also, I like how calm you look right now. This isn’t something that can be faked, so you must be quite calm by nature." The other ladies nodded in agreement to Belle’s statement. The majority of them were warriors. Some of them had even tried to subtly target the teenage boy with extremely sharp killing intent to test how he would react. But Thirteen had casually shrugged their attempts off, proving that he wasn’t a simple young man. Only those who had fought great battles would be able to resist that level of blood lust. If he thought that this had made them more wary of him, he greatly underestimated these ladies. They had fought a war that would have destroyed their world if they hadn’t emerged victorious from it. In fact, they became more interested than him, and were even conspiring behind the scenes in order to prevent their husband from discovering the guest that had appeared inside the royal palace without any invitation. "Well then, can you tell me how you got here?" Belle inquired. "I believe that you reside in the worlds called Pangea and Solterra, right? Stella keeps me updated on her adventures every time she comes home." "Maple and Cinnamon also speak highly of you," Chiffon commented. "They say that your cooking is the best in the multiverse. Frankly, I am very tempted to taste it as well. Can you cook a dish later?" Hearing that he was a good cook, the beautiful women all took out a piece of parchment and gave a check beside the "Can Cook" entry with satisfied smiles on their faces. "How is your stamina by the way?" a beautiful woman, who went by the name, Sidonie asked. "On a scale from one to ten with ten being the highest, how confident are you with your stamina? You said you have five fiancees, right? Are you able to satisfy them at the same time?" "I have decent stamina," Thirteen replied. "And yes, I can satisfy the five of them at the same time." All the ladies once again put a check beside the "Have Good Stamina" entry on their survey forms, which made the corner of Thirteen’s lips twitch. "Wonderful!" Sidonie exclaimed. "But our Stella isn’t just some ordinary girl, you know? She’s still a maiden, but don’t be deceived by her sweet, angelic looks. Deep down, a succubus is waiting to awaken." "Mmmghh!" Stella wanted to complain that it was her Mama Sidonie who was actually a succubus. Sidonie Von Ainsworth was the Seven Deadly Sins that represented Lust. Chiffon, who was Maple’s and Cinnamon’s mother, represented Gluttony. In fact, Stella’s father had married the Seven Deadly Sins as well as the Seven Heavenly Virtues. Of course, he had many other wives and their backgrounds would have made Camazotz cough out blood due to how incredible they were. One of them was even the Eight Heavenly Virtue... whom Thirteen had met in the past. The Virtue of Hope. Just as Belle, Chiffon, and Sidonie were about to continue their interview, the Amazon Princess, Lilith, burst into the living room. "Hide him!" Lilith shouted. "Will is coming. Titania is trying to buy us time, but he will be here in less than five minutes!" After hearing her warning, the women of the Ainsworth Family mobilized at once. How could they possibly let their husband discover their prospective son-in-law before Zion could start cooking the rice and eating it? That would never happen! 𝗳𝐫𝚎𝗲𝚠𝚎𝗯𝕟𝐨𝘃𝚎𝗹.𝗰𝗼𝗺 Even now, they were feeling anxious that their daughters would grow up forever alone because of how overly protective their father was of them. "I’ll handle this," Chiffon said with confidence. "Now, Zion, please close your eyes." The teenage boy didn’t even have the chance to question why he should close his eyes because Belle knocked him unconscious before he could say anything. Chiffon was the Sin of Gluttony, and the only place where she could hide the teenage boy without her husband noticing anything was inside her stomach! Stella watched with horror as her "boy" friend was absorbed by the beautiful dwarf, who could easily pass as a sixteen-year old due to her height and cuteness. "Everyone, make sure to keep everything a secret, okay?" Belle said to the children, who had all seen their sister’s friend appear and disappear. """Yes!""" The collective confirmation made the ladies smile, and for some reason, it also gave Stella some peace of mind. A minute later, a handsome Half-Elf with red hair and green eyes entered the living room, followed by a few beautiful women, who were also his wives. "Stella, you’re back!" The Half-Elf smiled as soon as he saw his daughter. It had been a while since he last saw her because he was doing his best to respect her decision to become independent and leave home for extended periods of time. Stella did her best to keep the smile on her face from breaking as she gave side-long glances at her Mama Chiffon, who was happily patting her stomach as if she had just eaten a delicious meal.
