Villain? Nah. I'm just here for the harem.-Chapter 31: Harem Date

The next morning, I stood in the training ground, facing three girls—Liliana, Rin, and Iris. All of them looked confused, wondering why I had called them here together. The sun was shining brightly, casting long shadows on the stone pavement beneath our feet. A light breeze rustled through the trees, but the tension in the air between the three girls was impossible to ignore.

I cleared my throat. "Alright, listen up. Liliana, you're my fiancée. Rin, you're my childhood friend. And Iris... well, what exactly are you?" I paused, then shrugged. "Whatever. The point is, you all hold a special place in my life. So, if you want to stay close to me, you'd better get along with each other."

Liliana crossed her arms and huffed. "Why do we need to do this?"

"Yeah, why are we here?" Rin added, glaring at Liliana.

Iris simply looked at me with a knowing smile, as if she already understood my intentions but wanted to see how things would unfold.

Rin and Liliana immediately started bickering. I didn't even bother listening. I could hear bits and pieces—something about who had known me longer, who had more claim over me, and other nonsense.

"Enough!" I shouted, my voice echoing across the training ground. "If anyone has a problem with this, they're free to leave right now."

Silence. None of them moved.

I smirked. "Good. Now, let me ask something important." I crossed my arms and looked at them seriously. "Which one of you loves me?"

Their faces turned bright red. Nobody answered.

"Alright, then. Let me ask differently. If any of you hate me or don't want me around, leave now."

Again, silence.

I chuckled. "Well, that settles it. My life is set!"

Without warning, I pulled all three of them into a tight hug. "Thanks for deciding to be with me."

"Wait, what exactly are we agreeing to?" Liliana asked suspiciously.

"A date," I replied casually.

Their faces turned even redder. "A-A date?" Rin stammered.

"Yup. All three of you, with me. Today."

"Wait, who said anything about—"

"No objections," I interrupted, grinning. "We're going."

They protested, but in the end, they all got dressed in beautiful outfits. Seeing them like that made my heart race. Liliana wore an elegant blue dress that highlighted her noble aura, Rin had a cute white outfit that made her look even more like the innocent girl I had grown up with, and Iris... well, she wore a deep violet dress that accentuated her mysterious charm. My inner desires almost got the best of me, but I held myself back.

And so, our date began.

We walked around the city, visited shops, and I even bought them dresses. Teasing Rin and Liliana was fun—especially watching them get all flustered. Meanwhile, Iris accepted compliments with grace, like a noble lady. I found myself enjoying their company more than I expected. Liliana would scoff at my playful remarks, but I could see the small smile she tried to hide. Rin pouted every time I teased her, but she never once let go of my hand. And Iris... she was just amused by everything.

Time flew by, and soon, the sun began to set.

As we returned home, I glanced at their faces—beautiful, graceful, and genuinely happy. Maybe I'd been too ungrateful in my past life.

At the entrance, I gave them each a tight hug. "Thank you for today. I had a great time."

But just as I was about to leave for my room, all three of them suddenly hugged me at once.

"Next time, it won't be just a hug," Liliana whispered.

"Prepare yourself," Rin added.

Iris just smiled mischievously.

They walked away, leaving me stunned. My heart pounded.

"Damn it... I didn't even get a kiss."

But I knew it was only a matter of time.

With a satisfied sigh, I returned to my room and fell into the best sleep I'd had in a long time.
