「U~hm. It’s not like she’s mine to begin with, I have no choice but to give up if she chooses another man…」

I mean, I would only hurt the woman I loved if I hurt the man that she loves.

That’s why I just had to swallow my tears quietly and pray for her happiness.

「Hee, so you won’t feel anything even if the girl you love is snatched away from you? Me, on the other hand, I prefer snatching her first. I’ve lost count of how many women I’ve taken as my own until now.」

「Eeh… What about their will?」

「What are you talking about? Something like that is just a trivial matter. In the end, they’ll choose me. Isn’t it the same with you?」

Alphos said those words as if it was the most natural thing in the world.

Woow!!

To think that he could make such a bold declaration.

I’m a bit envious of him.

Well, it was only natural for women to have a change of heart when faced with such a handsome guy, not to mention if he was wooing them.

But, what would happen if I did the same?

Even if I tried to snatch someone’s woman, the woman might just end up laughing scornfully at me.

The only one who was allowed to do something like that is someone like the handsome dude in front of me.

I had no such confidence.

「Nah, I can’t do something like that. And I don’t have the confidence to do it.」

Let me make it clear!! I never even held a girl before coming to this world!!

Rather, they seem to hate me!!

Shirone once reprimanded me, saying that I should stop my bad habit of looking at girls’ legs or ch*st. According to her, apparently my face becomes similar to that of a lecher when I leer at them and that’s why they hate me.

I might have never noticed that fact if it wasn’t for Shirone telling me about it. When I heard her explanation, I finally understood the reason behind those girls’ hateful looks towards me.

I apologized to them right away for making them feel uncomfortable.

I always had perverted delusions whenever I saw the bare legs or protruding bre*sts of women. At first, I thought that it was okay since I wasn’t acting on it or hurting them in any way. But, now I know that I have a perverted face whenever I look at them, just like a lecher, which is honestly very disgusting.

That’s why, once I found out, I tried my best to get away from them.

After recalling those days, I suddenly felt sweat running down my forehead.

「I’m surprised! You seem to have zero confidence in yourself. It’s completely different from that Hero of Light. Should I take this as good omen…?」

Alphos spoke with bewilderment upon hearing my reply.

「Even if you ask me that question…」

「Do you not feel anything knowing that you’re loved by Rena?」

「Of course I’d feel like a winner in life if I was liked by such a beauty, but… I don’t think she is in love with me.」

In fact, the memories of our passionate night in Rox Kingdom didn’t feel real to me, rather, it felt strange instead. I mean, why would such a beautiful woman choose me of all people?

No matter how much I thought about it, it just felt like a huge and deadly trap.

「Rena started becoming strange ever since she met you, her tone fluctuates whenever the topic shifts towards you… So I made a conclusion that you’re the reason for her change.」

「Eh?」

「You know, this is the first time I’ve seen Rena act that way. The past her would never do something like that. It’s so strange to the point that she gave up on trying to kill Modes.」

I never knew how Rena acted prior to me coming to this world. So, I had no idea what he meant by Rena had changed after I came. But, it was a good thing that she gave up on trying to beat Modes.

「At first, I thought that her change had something to do with the Hero of Light. But, I was really wrong. When I told her that the Hero was trapped in the labyrinth, her reaction was very bland. She was way too calm for a woman whose man was trapped in that infamous labyrinth.」

And then, Alphos shook his head.

「And then, when I saw the magical image of Rena and you in the Republic of Ariadya, I finally realized that you’re the reason behind her strange behaviour.」

Alphos was now pointing his finger at me, his eyes looking straight into mine.

「That’s why I can’t stop worrying about her. I mean, it’s only natural for a big brother to want to know more about the man who caused a change in his little sister.」

Alphos spoke with a calm voice.

Yet, it was filled with unyielding hostility.

「That’s why, I’m gonna challenge you. Show me that you really are a suitable partner for Rena.」

Alphos pointed his sword towards me.

「What a selfish reason. I don’t even understand what you’re talking about. But, you guys insulted Her Highness Polen; I’m gonna beat you for that!!」

I also pointed my sword towards Alphos.

「HAHA!! GOOD ANSWER, DARK KNIGHT!!」

Alphos put on his white helmet as he spoke.

「LET’S GO, VALJINIAS!! LET’S TEACH THEM A LESSON AND SHOW THEM HOW THEY CAN NEVER BEAT US UNDER THIS AZURE SKY!!」

The white dragon spread his wings, and suddenly charged towards us.

「GLORIOUS!!」

I told Glorious to dodge the attack immediately.

The white dragon swooshed through the location we were at a moment ago at a tremendous speed.

「Truly a selfish fella. Sorry Glorious, let’s just play along.」

I brushed Glorious’ head as I said so.

Glorious raised a roar as I brushed his head. He was filled with fighting spirit, and that fighting spirit was pointed towards the white dragon.

It seems Glorious was also fighting for his own pride.

「Thanks, Glorious. Let’s go. Let’s paint this azure sky with a black storm.」

Glorious flapped his wings as he raised a deafening roar.

The roar of the two dragons reverberated on top of the Sea of Clouds.
