143 – Pincer #3

It hurts because it’s a fact.

The exaggerated falsehoods that have always ridiculed me, such as the lie that Tae Oh Gospel is the queen’s secret concubine and has eight arms, do no harm to me.

This fact-based mockery pierces my chest like an arrow, making my eyes dizzy.

But this was no time for pride.

“Elga-nim, you said you’d help earlier. Then, can you help me improve my relationship with Mirna-nim?”

“You believed such lies? Why should I bother about whether you get along with that btch Mirna?”

No way.

Elga just lied to me.

My eyes started spinning with the floor going in circles. I was stunned. I didn’t think that Elga would lie like that. However, I can’t let myself just suffer.

“Well, this would be a good chance to establish yourself as the first wife.”

“What do you mean?”

“Think of it as being the Lady of the harem. As the first wife with the highest position, Elga-nim will overlook Mirna-nim, who came in second.”

“Hmm….”

My words seemed to make Elga ponder. At this time, the Trainer’s intuition kicked in. I need to push even harder!

“This is a one in a chance to one up the Draco Family, after being at odds with the Lioness Family for hundreds of years. This is a rare opportunity to be recorded in the history books.”

“Well, that’s true.”

In Angmar’s Law, a person may have up to four official spouses as long as they are able.

These four spouses have their own rankings. And in the Angmar family, famous for being polygamous, the mothers of Kings usually took over the management of the spouses.

That means, the supreme ruler of the harem is the Queen.

But I….

I don’t have a mother.

Therefore, no one is there who would manage my harem. This means that one of my four spouses will naturally take that position.

“Anyway, the harem is in the process of being set up. It’s the difference between being late or early. With that said, why don’t you owe me in advance and aim for the highest position among my wives?”

Elga’s Lioness Family is as famous for their harems as the Angmar Family. The Lioness men are full of energy and have had several wives.

As they ruled the barren land of Borgia in the west, they revived the family by bringing in many wives to solidify their alliance and blood ties through marriage.

The name Lioness was originally a surname that honors the wives of the Lion King. Elga, who was born and raised in such a family, would understand what I mean.

The royal harem is a battlefield for women, and wielding power there means that the women’s families have more recognition.

“Elga-nim?”

“…….”

Elga seemed to be in deep thought, so I gave her time to think.

* * *

Elga had a large extended family, including numerous uncles, aunts, and cousins.

During her childhood, whenever there’s a family gathering, she had so many unknown relatives that everyone had to wear a name tag on their chest.

—I am the third son of the 23rd generation of the Lioness Family.

—I am the second son of the 15th generation. I am your elder.

Determining the rankings or seniority was difficult and complicated, as the members of the Lioness Family had married multiple wives and had many children over the generations.

Of course, being the only daughter of the current family head, Rienhardt, Elga was royally treated wherever she went and never had any inconveniences.

In fact, she was even called the Princess of Borgia.

Looking at her bustling cousins, she couldn’t help but think, ‘Why do men sought multiple wives?’

However, after growing older, she came to realize that it was often a political device for establishing alliances through marriages with other families.

In that sense, Elga felt a sense of naturalness when rulers and leaders, driven by political and strategic reasons, had multiple wives.

She grew up seeing a lot of relatives.

But even so, this Half-Fairy’s harem is bizarre.

When the Half-Fairy Theo Gospel said, “I want to make a harem.” Elga simply snorted at the idea, ‘try it if you dare.’

Moreover, even if he had multiple wives, Elga was confident that as the sole princess of the Lioness family, she would hold the most secure position among all his wives.

The power hierarchy among the wives is significant.

In order to have their sons or daughters ascend to the position of the family head, the wives of the Lioness Family is engaged in a fierce battle. Even her father, Rienhardt, and his half-brothers shed much blood over the issue of succession.

Her father, Rienhardt, was rumored to have only one wife due to exhaustion from the discord among his brothers.

But Theo Gospel’s harem was strange.

Is there any man in the world who isn’t satisfied with having the princess of the Lioness Family as his wife, but also lays hands on the Lady of the Draco Family?

Insanity.

When Elga heard that story, she honestly felt dizzy and almost fainted. It was madness.

But the Half-Fairy’s attitude was firm.

As if there was a reason why it had to be.

At the same time, she became curious.

How far can this man, who dared to have two wives from collosal, titan families, go?

So, after a long deliberation, Elga finally opened her mouth.

“You. I didn’t ask before, but now I’m curious. What exactly are you planning to do?”
