Chief Katsu, if you ever run this through a translation program to Japanese, you will understand the trouble I had with your story, Google translate and Japan are not yet in sync. So I give it my own twists. For free.

This week is going to be fun… meeting the in-laws.

17. In-Laws… a lot of them.

The next day I went to the Real Estate agency and completed the sale. The paperwork will take a week, but after a 50% deposit, we were allowed access to the building. We expected to move in at the end of the week. We bought the furniture along with the Penthouse, If we don't like some of the furniture, we can always change it later.

Elena and Lela were with the Army, Lydia and the Beast girls are at work, Aya, Mai, and Yurie are at College… that left me with Hilda. Hilda studied Electricity with a passion, the more she learned about it the more she liked it. That left me with some free time.

I completed the [Elixir] for the soldiers, I even updated my [Magic Stone of Appraisal] to [Magic Stone of Appraisal +3] Lydia and the beast girls especially will like these stones.

Xxxxx

The long-dreaded evening is there, meeting Mai's family. I reduced traveling time by porting to Mai's room and [Teleport] to her parent's house, saving a trip of an hour or two.

Mai introduced me: "Mother, grandma, this is Maruyama Seiji, he is the one for me. Seiji, this is my mother, and this is my grandmother that had a night with the former Demon Lord."

Grandma: "You call your grandfather a Demon Lord? Mai! Have some respect for him! Even if it was for one night I still care for him."

"If I may explain? The man you met that night came from another world. Having a horn on the head is not common in this world. That man is from a world where his race is called Demons. He got wounded and by some misfortune or luck when he activated his emergency escape he got hit by lightning, where landed in this world and met you. He never realized he escaped to a different world. The next day he recovered enough to return home. He did not know he has a daughter or grandchild until a few days ago."

Mother butted in: "How do you know all that?"

"Simple, he told Mai and me the story, Mai said it matched the story of her grandma. And… Mai? Do I show them?"

Mai nodded: "You can trust them Seiji."

I handed both a [Stone of Temporal Language Acquisition +2] and showed the talk we had with the Former Demon Lord.

Mother swore: "I am going to be 150 years old? Mai only 125? you are going to die before me?"

"I suspect there are other factors playing a part. Your size, for example, you are the same height as Mai, You should have grown a couple of sizes bigger by now. Maybe having a child that young suppressed your growth. I propose you drink this [Elixir] it will fix any abnormalities and wounds."

Mai's mother confirmed my suspicions: "My pregnancy was a difficult one, Mai came at seven and a half months, with a C-section, I almost died during delivery. The doctors removed my ovaries, another pregnancy would kill me."

"That [Elixir] will repair all damage and bring your body to its optimal state. You have to eat and drink a lot during the two weeks to fuel the changes."

Mai sighed and said: "The biggest secret mother, is that I learned that Ki is called Magic in that world, and I have Magic Powers now."

Mai conjured a [Fire Ball] in her hand: "At the moment I have [Information Magic], [Fire Magic], [Lightning Magic], and [Body Reinforcement Magic]. Seiji can travel between those two worlds at will."

Mai took a deep breath and continued: "That is not all. Seiji is a summoned Hero, in that world, he can have a harem, the main wife is the Princess of that country, we met his sister in the karate club and got to know each other, he found out about grandfather and took Yurie and me to that world. We all fell in love with him and agreed to share him."

Boy, they call that dropping a nuke on their heads. Hey were silent for a minute or two, the tension was nerve-wracking.

Finally, the mother asked: "How many wives?"

Mai answered with a little voice: "Five at the moment, six with his sister included, she doesn't have intercourse with him but is involved with us all."

Mother said with an icy voice: "At the moment?"

Mai almost whispered: "We met a Kitsune and a Nekomata that Seiji is going to train. And before us, he met a young woman he is corresponding with."

I interrupted: "There is nothing happening that she doesn't want to happen. Everything is and was discussed before we moved things further. The thing we all got in common is we have a lot of Magic and are very strong with it. There are only a few people stronger than Mai in this world, that is my sister, me and Elena, and Lena from the other world."

We spend two whole hours doing a show and tell of our magic and the girls before they caved in.

Mother finally said: "I can't dictate to you how to live your life, Mai. If this is what you want, then you have my blessing."

Mai jumped into her mother's arms and said: "Thank you mother, you don't have to worry about money, Seiji is going to pay for college, he is not super rich, but he has a lot of money." Hmm? She should have started with that line!

Xxxxx

When I dropped Mai off in her dorm, I got a searing kiss from her: "Thank you Seiji. It was not easy to face mother like this and explain our Harem."

"That is fine Mai, you get to experience my parents tomorrow. I'll bet you are looking forward to that too."

Mai groaned: "Tomorrow? I am glad I won't be alone there."

At home, Aya asked: "It went well?"

"I prefer getting a root canal with blunt instruments."

Aya chuckled: "That bad he? I feel sorry for you."

I glared at her: "Well, tomorrow you will feel it too when you have to explain it to mum and dad."

"Hey! I am not one of your wives! Don't drag me in this!"

"Oh? Not one of the wives? Does this mean you will stop having fun with them? Do you need a separate bedroom in our new home?"

"No! And you know what I mean!"

I grinned evilly: "Yes I know, that is why you are coming with us and help explain it to mum and dad."

Elena sighed: "I am nervous about tomorrow, will they accept me?"

"Of course, mum and dad will accept you, they never thought Seiji would produce grandchildren, now they can expect a few dozen of them."

"Ah? You are planning for a dozen children Aya?… with me? How daring!" This time I had to dodge her pebble bullets, when I move out of here I will need to pay for the repairs of the walls Aya damaged.

I boxed her in with my [Barrier]: "The cost for repairing the walls will come from your allowance, Missy."

Elena dragged Aya along: "Come Aya, I read you can pay with your body, let's try that first."

Xxxxx

Meh, Elena covered part of the cost for the damage, and boy, she could use her body well. At breakfast, Aya was grumbling about unfair treatment and bloody phones. Last night Aya got her punishment, witnessed by Lela, Lydia, Mai, and Yurie through their phones. Spanking is an acceptable punishment in the other world, and the bare ass is a primary target.

"Don't forget everyone, we have dinner at my parent's house, I'll prepare it here and serve it at home."

When they left, I remained with Hilda, I spent an hour tutoring her on Electricity, then I took the rods and hairpieces out that I bought from the cranky lady.

It was time I created the accessories for the Cosplay Convention, Elena will get the Water, Aya the Wind, Mai the Fire, and Yurie Earth.

With the pictures of a poster, I shaped the Rods and Hair ornaments in the form of the ones the Magical Girls are holding on that poster. Hilda pointed some details out while looking longingly at the results.

I said: "Don't worry Hilda, I am making a set for you too, but the Fire and Wind are used up. Do you want to pay a visit to the [Lightning Crystal]?"

"If you think I am ready brother, I want to."

A quick visit got Hilda [Lightning Magic] Level 2, back home, I made her baton and hair ornaments with the rest.

The result:

[Hair Ornaments of C +4] [Baton of C +4]

[Hair Ornaments of Ran +4] [Baton of Ran +4]

[Hair Ornaments of Sigil +4] [Baton of Sigil +4]

[Hair Ornaments of Apure +4] [Rod of Apure +4]

[Hair ornaments of Apure's sister +4] [Rod of Apure's sister +4]

I hope nobody will make those girls mad, with this equipment they can level the Convention into rubble.

Xxxxx

The dreaded hour drew near, I already informed my parents I will visit with a lot of friends of Aya and me and we will bring the food along.

I picked all the girls up from their homes, and we [teleport] close to the train station. We have to walk through the village to our home, people need to see us arrive and leave, Inari and Kacha were in human form and were looking with interest at the surroundings, pointing things out to Lydia, along the way.

Mum and dad were waiting for us in the front yard, their eyes widening with the number of girls and women I brought along. The neighbors were burning with curiosity, mum had no doubt told them I am bringing friends home, something that never happened before.

We brought our own slippers, when everyone changed his shoes and everything settled down, I took a deep breath.

I started to introduce everyone: "Mother, father, This is Delaidos Elena, my fiancee, Kawai Mai, also my fiancee, Mihara Yurie, my fiancee, Gewalt Lela, my fiancee, and Ikebu Lydia, my fiancee. Delaidos Hilda, Elena's sister, Inari, and Kacha are very good friends of ours.

Aya commented: "Real subtle brother, why didn't you use a sledgehammer?"

I raised my eyebrow: "You can do better? Give it a try."

Aya huffed: "Mum, dad, Seiji won the Lotto 7 last Friday, he won 950 Million."

"You call that subtle? Do you want them to get a heart attack?"

"So what? Elena can heal that in an instant! I think even you and I can do that too. Don't worry mum, we learned Magic a few weeks back on Elena's world."

Dad interrupted us: "Are you perhaps rehearsing for a comedy show? Because if you don't, you better explain it better than this."

"Father, nothing of what we just said is a lie." I conjured a ball of Light and a Ball of Darkness in my hands.

"I was summoned by Elena's father, the king, to another world, there I got Magic Powers, one of them was the ability to travel between our worlds. Elena got in trouble with her father because she helped me out, I took her in and made her part of my [Hero Party]. Aya wanted to learn Magic too, so she too is a member of my [Hero Party]."

I pointed to Mai and Yurie: "Aya joined the karate club in college, she met Mai and Yurie. We discovered that Mai has a connection to that world, even Yurie could detect our magic and join us too. I met Lydia at the Merchant guild, we met Lela in a Town during a tournament. I am attracted to them all."

Elena took over: "It is allowed to have concubines in our world, to be a wive of the Hero is a big Honor. Because of the status of the Hero and his special Skills, we all became much stronger and have a lot of magic. All thanks to him. We all joined him willingly and shared the bed with him."

"Dad, one of my Magics is [Future Prediction], we really did win the Lotto 7. If you check your bank account tomorrow, you will find 300 Million in it. We bought a bigger apartment in the same neighborhood we live in now."

Mum took control: "Honey, take Seiji for a walk, I need to talk to these girls."

Dad sighed: "Come along son, we talk outside."

"I can do better dad, let's visit some friends of mine. Girls, I pop over to Aria and the kids for a bit."

I took dad's arm and [Teleport] in front of the church, gave him a language Stone, and got in line for some meat skewers.

"The kids behind the food stall are my students, the Nekomata is Minya, the boy Areon, and the girl Mica. We met when the Sister that takes care of them was sick in bed and they ran out of food. I helped them out and taught them to cook."

We each got one skewer, to not ruin our appetite, and walked over to Aria: "Aria, this is my father, I am showing some of the things I am proud of, and those children make me very proud. Father, this is Aria, the first friend I made besides Elena."

Aria smiled her biggest smile: "It is an honor to meet the parent that raised the Hero to be such an exceptional man. Lord Seiji changed all of our lives for the better."

"Nice to meet you too Sister Aria, to be honest, Seiji kept this all a secret from us until today when he introduced his fiancees… Are you one of them too?"

Aria giggled: "No Sir, I took Vows and will stay single to take care of the orphans in this city, and I think he has enough of them already. What I am however is a loyal friend for him and his wives."

Xxxxx

We returned when Elena phoned us to bring the food. Aya brought some extra tables, chairs, and cutlery. Mum looked at me with wide eyes when I took dinner out of my [Inventory] and set it on the table. While dad told mum about the other world, my students and Aria, the girls divided the food.

Dinner started to be more relaxed, after a few minutes Aya started to tell them about some of their trips, explained my money-making scheme, and the tournament she won.

Soon everyone was telling anecdotes they encountered with me until Kacha said: "When we first met Lord Seiji gave us two bottles of blue liquid and some bottles with fruity juice. We drank it all, we didn't know the blue drink contained alcohol, we can't handle alcohol well. The morning after he saw us naked when Lydia and he woke us up."

"I told you, you still had your panties and socks on, and you have nothing to be ashamed of, both of you are very pretty."

Elena said: "So, he saw us all naked?"

I protested: "I didn't see Hilda naked!"

Mum asked: "But you saw Aya naked?"

"That I did." I explained the Transformation Stone and the result of Aya's first attempt.

Mum pushed further: "So her phone call to me where she asked if I said that I am ok with her being with you?"

I grinned: "Be honest mum, you did say that to me last year, it was a joke but I could tease Aya with it."

Elena ruined my fun and said: "Aya is in a relationship with all the girls here, except Hilda, Inari, and Kacha."

Father looked at me and said: "Explain son."

Aya gathered her courage and said: "Dad let me explain, it started when we found Seiji's Hentai magazines under his mattress, and Elena asked me to teach her Earth's sex play. That way I found out I am bisexual. Mai and Yurie joined too, since then I am sharing the bed with them. But Seiji and I did not do anything with each other. We did see each other naked though."

Inari commented: "If they ask us to join them in their bed we will gladly do so. Lydia said it was the best night of her life.

Mum and dad were a bit confused, their son who they suspected to be gay, has five fiancees and is playing sex games with his sister present, and now Aya is gay… bisexual.

They looked at eachother, finally, mum sighed and nodded, dad said: "You are not exactly brother and sister Seiji, mother and I were trying for a baby since we were twenty years old, your mother had four miscarriages during that period."

Mum continued: "Remember Aunty Sakura? She had a job in Tokyo and got seduced by a man. The man abandoned her the moment she became pregnant. When she returned home we took her in. With the help of our doctor and our neighbors when you were born, we claimed you as our child and aunt Sakura having a miscarriage."

Dad took over: "We stopped trying to have a child of our own until mother became pregnant with Aya. Even with the difficulties of the pregnancy and the delivery, mother got depressed with the thought she could have more children if she kept on trying for it. There you have it. We could not reveal it, because what we did was very illegal. If it came out that aunt Sakura gave up on her child, it would ruin her chance of having a family."

I sighed: "This is unexpected, it explains a lot though, the extra hugs and presents, her visits… I am glad you told me, but I still consider you both as my parents, and that will never change…

Master! He was aunt Sakura's grandfather! That is why he trained me and refused the other boys from the village!"

Dad nodded: "They knew. Aunt Sakura told them when she came back to the village 6 months pregnant. They contacted us and asked to arrange it with our doctor. Grandpa survived the war thanks to Masters' lessons, and your mother desperately wanted to have a child. If our child she expected at the time would carry through, you would be twins. We lost her in the eight-month."

Bloody fuck? That wasn't in the novel at all! Katsu never finished the novel, but there was a lot of erotic tension between that Seiji and his Aya.

Maybe he was planning to write about this… or, this is not real. I remember a past life, maybe this is a form of an afterlife. It would make sense, I am an MC in a novel! The thing is, it feels so real to me. I might as well accept it as reality.

"I will make it so that you adopted me, I will have the paperwork ready by the end of the week. This way Aya can be with me if she wants to without all the incest scandals."

Mother asked me: "You can do that Seiji?"

I shrugged: "I made Elena a citizen of the US, and Hilda her little sister. All official and untraceable. Can you inform them I know? I will visit them in a week or two so they are prepared."

Xxxxx

When we returned home, I sat down and went over in my mind what happened this night… Plot armor? Wishful thinking? Divine intervention? A crazy Harem maniac is writing this?

Anyway, I am glad that the bloody incest flag is out of the way, the urge to fuck Aya became bigger and bigger.

Mai straddled me and summed it up: "One more wife for the Hero."

Yurie put herself behind Mai on my lap: "More fun for us."

Elena sat next to me and said: "We are happy to have her as a wife."

Lela and Lydia grabbed Aya in a double hug, Lela said: "We already love you Aya. Master Seiji? It is time for me to return."

Mai nodded: "For us too, we have some projects to complete."

Lydia smiled at me: "Seiji? You need to meet my parents too." I paled at the thought, I thought it was done!

Yurie cheered me up: "Relax, Seiji, my parents are on a business trip, they come back next month."

Soon the apartment was almost empty, Hilda wished us goodnight and went to her room. We have to face the elephant in the room, how do we move from here?

Elena took control when she grabbed both our hands and dragged us to bed.

Life is good.

Xxxxx

The adoption papers were done in two days, all official with stamps and files in the right places. The army reached Shinju Town and disbanded, most of the wounded recovered, only the ones that took [Elixir] needed a few more days to heal completely, the Adventures already rushed to the Tower of Sunrise and tackled the new floors.

We could use a break, I kept a close eye on the Devils I marked and their whereabouts. Not one of them returned to their village, but it is bound to happen.

Elena and Aya kept on chatting with Nancy, exchanging pictures of their new friends with Nancy's pictures of her travels.

Nancy wrote: "I wish I could be with you there, it sounds like a lot of fun. Your new friends seem fun too, especially Yurie."

Elena wrote back: "If you really, really want to come, we can make it happen."

Nancy: "You made me curious Elena, now I Really, Really want to be there."

Elena: "I'll talk to lord Seiji, you will know more in your hotel room tonight, close all drapes."

Nancy: "Ok, I am looking forwards to it."

Elena contacted me: "Lord Seiji? Can you bring Nancy here for the Cosplay Convention? She really wants to be here."

I answered: "Elena? That will expose our secret to Nancy, are you certain you want to do that?"

"It clicked Lord Seiji, it still does. I feel we can trust her."

I am not so sure about that, I trust her too but she is shadowed by the Chinese mafia and probably surveyed by some secret services… Hmm, if we use that Stone… it can work.

Xxxxx

That evening we met Lydia's parents, they were overwhelmed by our presence and were excited to be my in-laws. Both have no Magic, but the [Magic Stone of Temporally Language Acquisition +2] doesn't need magic. We had a nice time and left with their blessing.

Xxxxx

The time difference between Egypt and Japan, made us wait for the night, I looked at Nancy to be alone in her room to [Teleport]. Aya texted: We arrive in a minute.

A minute later, we [Teleport] in her room, right in front of her. A good thing Nancy sat on a chair or she would jump away.

"Hello Nancy, Elena told me you wanted to join us at the Cosplay Convention. Do you still want to come?"

"What? How? You are real? HOW? Are you an alien?"

"No… I think you can call Elena that, she is from another world. Aya and I are just from Japan. Elena likes you and wants to share the Cosplay Convention with you. But let Aya and Elena explain it to you, I need to check something out."

I [Search] on my map for threats against Nancy, and behold, two people showed up, I [Shadow walk] invisible with [Night Shade] behind one and [Appraise] him.

| Age 25

So the pursuit is already starting, I [Putrefy] him then I cast [Sleep], followed by a strip search, removing all his valuables, phone, ID, in other words, he is left with his pants and socks.

I did the same with the other one. I spent a few thousand MP on learning Arabic and Farsi, I even popped over to China to learn the language.

Then I checked their papers, well, they knew how to keep a low profile, nothing incriminates them, only my [Appraisal]. I made it look like they met some local crooks and ported back to Nancy.

Aya just did her show and tell with a demonstration of Magic. I asked Nancy: "Nancy? Did your company have trouble with China? Their Mafia in particular?"

"Yes, it was a choice between Japan and China to start our first Oriental store, one of the board directors was caught trying to set up a smuggling deal with the Chinese Mafia."

"I am sorry to say, but you are under surveillance by the Chinese Mafia. Here look at the video feed."

I showed the two men, Nancy recognized them, they were on the plane to Egypt with her. Now that she thinks about it, there were always a couple of chines men close to her.

"Call your mother, and tell her you are spending a few days with friends, after the convention we will bring you back to the airport here so you can leave this country legally, or continue your tour. You can also stay here if you are freaked out by our Magic."

"I will go with you, I'll check out of the hotel and follow you."

Twenty minutes later we were out the door, I already took the girls home, I said to Nancy: "Here is a secluded spot, I am going to take your hand and we are out of here."

Xxxxx

Nancy looked around, she still could not believe she traveled thousands of miles to Japan in less than a second, but she recognized the apartment.

Aya said: "Seiji, it is too cramped here, can we move to the new apartment?"

"First things first Aya, here Nancy, hold on to this Stone. Did you see the glow? Now try to read this book."

"I can read Japanese! Hmm? I am speaking Japanese! Do you know what this is worth? A fortune!"

"Yes, and it can bring more trouble than money. Keep this a secret, even from your family please, if this comes out there will be all kinds of trouble. We have to sleep here tonight Aya, moving into our new apartment in the middle of the night is suspicious, especially with all those gorgeous foreign women. Not to forget those good-looking local beauties."

I whispered to Nancy: "They complained I did not compliment them enough."

Nancy giggled: "A girl can never have enough compliments Seiji."

"You can sleep with Elena and me in our room Nancy, we sleep on our Futons, Seiji will settle on the couch."

I did not spy on them… honest! Although the sounds from the room were driving me crazy.

Xxxxx

The next morning we introduced Hilda to Nancy: "We freed Hilda from slavery, officially I am her guardian. But I regard her as my little sister, official papers say that Elena is her sister."

Hilda asked: "Is she my new sister-in-law?"

Elena giggled: "Not yet Hilda, Aya, we will move our things today, did you store everything? Lord Seiji will pay the rent for a couple of months longer of this apartment. So we can always come back if we forgot something."

"Nancy? We need to change your looks, but to do that you need Magic. Do you want to learn some?"

"Wait a minute, you can teach me Magic? How? Of course, I want to learn magic!"

"It is not exactly teaching but granting you Magic. Here hold this [Mana Crystal Fragment], it will give you powers according to your occupation. Good, that was a nice glow, I will check what you got.

"You have acquired some good stuff Nancy, think in your mind that you need to see the [Map]. You can zoom in and out, all the locations that you visit at some point in your life are visible. [Search] will help you find things faster, Aya is using it for college. [Trade] is a passive Skill that helps you you find the best deals."

I smiled when I handed the next Stone: "This is the [Magic Stone of Human Transformation +3] It will change your appearance into a body you have in your mind, careful, once chosen it will stay the same for that stone. Picture the body and push some magic in the Stone, I suggest keeping your body height and shape the same, so your clothes will still fit."

Nancy closed her eyes and changed into a beautiful Japanese woman. Elena dragged Nancy to the mirror in the bathroom to show the result.

"Nancy? Are you happy with the result? As a true-born Japanese male, I declare you smoking hot." Nancy came back into the living room, struck a pose, and asked: "Really, I thought you had a thing for blondes?"

Elena nodded: "That is true, he admitted to me he had the… how did he call it? Ah, the hots for you."

"One last thing Nancy, do you have a bracelet that I can adjust a bit? Thank you. It will only take a few seconds… Done! Put this on and think of putting that glass into the bracelet. Now, think of taking it back out. Congratulations! You have a storage space of 2 cubic yards in that bracelet, enough to store your…yes just about enough for your suitcases, just joking Nancy. Hilda? Are you ready?"

"Yes Brother, I have everything." Hilda raised her hand, showing her bracelet.

Then we move to our new home.
