Chapter 107 - Bakugyaku Festival
"Kyle...I-is this for real? You\'re not joking, right? I-if you are I won\'t forgive you!" She stared at him with a teary expression.
Hearing her, he couldn\'t help but smile. "I\'m not, besides you can tell if I am lying or not right? I can\'t understand why you are even asking that."
"It\'s not pointless! I-i\'m verifying it through you…"
"Yeah, alright..then will you?" He looked at her with a serious expression.
"Yes! I do!" She accepted without hesitation, this was something she desires and after this, she wouldn\'t lose to that woman!
Secretly Kyle, sighing in relief, honestly was afraid of a possible rejection but it seems that he thinks too much, smiling at her, slowly putting the ring on her ring finger.
Observing him putting the ring on her finger, she was so happy that she could faint at any moment now, the ring was now on her finger she looked at it with fondness, this was the sign of his love to her...although he had another woman, it was too late stop it so she decided to let it be.
"Well... I\'m aware that the way I propose is not grand nor is it the perfect time to do so, I know I\'m being unfair considering our current situation..but I\'m glad that you said \'Yes\' it made me happy." He held her hand as he said that.
"Well yes… the fact that you cheated after you propose is really the best time, it caught me off guard... forget it I won\'t persuasive this matter anymore, as I was the one who suggested for you to have a harem, so next time adding more is no big deal, but I can\'t still accept that \'wife\' of yours yet." Tohru said the \'wife\' part in an exceptionally loud tone.
Hearing that he smiled wryly, and then she continued. "But maybe, probably, perhaps in the future I might accept her, based on what I could observe from her, we might have some similarities.. anyway that\'s it only time could tell."
"Don\'t worry, I\'m sure you\'ll get along….." Even though he said that he couldn\'t imagine them getting along at all! He cursed his lack of imagination.
"We\'ll see…" Tohru was aware that her boyfrien- no her fiance is also doubting his own words just now, but she didn\'t expose him.

Morning,
Tohru happily announced that she and Kyle are engaged, and now she could officially call him her fiance.
The people inside the house had a different kind of reaction, Esdeath wasn\'t a bit surprised as if she expected this, still...it annoys her to see that woman suddenly start to smile smugly at her.
Nobunaga was nodding in understanding, first of all, she doesn\'t find it weird for Kyle to have multiple wives, because she knows that he had a potential for great things, and definitely with his personality it\'s impossible for him to fall in love with just a single woman, which she understands somehow, she thought. \'He did follow my advice, good thing that he stopped being a hypocrite...now this is getting interesting... should I also join the \'war\'?\'
She looked at him, then she smiled, this was left unnoticed by Kyle, he glanced back at Nobunaga for some reason her smile gives him a bad premonition, he thought. \'This woman is planning something….I should be careful.\'
Shizuka after hearing that her brother proposed to Tohru, couldn\'t help but look at him oddly, she wasn\'t an idiot no...even someone with a decent IQ could figure out the trick that her brother just did, it was very dirty yet effective at the same time, she thought. \'He proposed to her, just to make her feel better, after knowing that he just cheated… Kyle, I didn\'t know that you were such a sly person! My brother, are you trying to create a harem here?!\'
If he were to know Shizuka\'s thoughts, he would applaud because of its accuracy, although his intention of proposing indeed was to make Tohru feel better, however, to be fair he did admit that it wasn\'t the perfect time to propose because it\'s \'unfair\' yet he did.
Even if he didn\'t admit it, Tohru would know about it regardless, she wasn\'t a fool she was very smart, smarter than anyone in this mansion, and that\'s excluding Quetzalcoatl of course.
Hina was stupefied by their current situation right now, honestly, if it wasn\'t her who experienced it herself, she would have thought that it was a harem fanfiction novel made by some random author.
But it wasn\'t the case, her head hurts from too much thinking, still, she is feeling complicated right now, it wasn\'t something that she could explain, but..for some reason, she couldn\'t help but feel hopeful...if he already had 2 women for himself...then...
Hina stared at Kyle with a very complicated expression.
Quetzalcoatl wasn\'t that surprised by this sudden turn of events, she had thought of this possibility but, who would have guessed that it did happen, right now she felt like things got more interesting, she couldn\'t stop herself from wanting more.
While Kanna was the one who was in the dark, she couldn\'t understand most of the things that the adults were saying, but she knew what \'engaged\' meant.
She was jealous of her Tohru-sama being engaged with Kyle! She pouted and thought, what if she asks him to marry her too?
As she thought of that, she immediately asked him to marry her, as expected Kyle didn\'t take her word seriously, but this time he didn\'t promise to marry her if she grows up or anything, because he doesn\'t want her to become the second Esdeath.
After knowing that he rejected her, she got depressed and started to ignore him, however, it was quickly resolved with a piece of chocolate. She might be older than him but she\'s still a child through and through!

Nangokuren High School,
"So...you want me to help you get an identification form and I.D to a female friend..so that she could transfer here?" Kyōka asked.
"Yes, can you?" Kyle nodded.
"Sure, okay." She instantly agreed.
"Ah, yeah as expected you would rejec- wait what? Seriously?" He was surprised to realize that she agreed to his request easily.
"Yeah, just give me her picture and I will take care of the rest." Kyōka nodded, it wasn\'t a big deal for her.
"Aren\'t you taking this too easy? No questions regarding her? Like why doesn\'t she have an identification card for something?" He asked.
"Oh, well yes I do want to ask that but...it\'s better if I don\'t, it doesn\'t matter to me if that female friend of yours is a criminal or something," Kyōka said it like it was no big deal.
"Of course not, she\'s not a criminal." Although he said that, he wasn\'t sure about it though, because he couldn\'t say that Nobunaga is a criminal as she is a lord of a clan, she makes the rules but if she were to kill people now without a proper justification, then she would really become a criminal.
Also, the reason why he only asked for Kyōka to make Nobunaga\'s identification form, is because Esdeath already had one!
For some reason, the system gave her better privilege than Nobunaga, as the system personally made her an identity in this world, however, he definitely wouldn\'t think that the system is being nice to Esdeath because she\'s his wife, he thought. \'It had to do with the exchange stuff...it was very convenient.. anyway I have less to worry about.\'
"Just give me a picture of that female friend of yours okay? I\'ll get it done within the next few days."
"Alright, here\'s a picture of her." He was glad that he took a picture of Nobunaga in advance.
Kyōka took his phone, and then she saw Nobunaga.
"Tsk... another one huh…"
Kyle heard that, but he didn\'t say anything. After that Kyōka saved the photo so that she could take care of it later, and suddenly she asked.
"Oh yeah, another thing I\'m excited for is the Bakugyaku Festival!" She clenches her fist as mentioned the festival.
"Bakugyaku Festival?"
"That\'s right you probably don\'t know about it since you\'re a transfer student but I\'ll explain it to you, okay listen." Kyōka started to explain about the festival.
