Harem Tournament of Champions

[Slightly R-18]

*****

[...]

Shaking his head, Hisha refused to let it slide. 'Don't give me the cold shoulder this early! It couldn't possibly be nothing!'

[With the absence of Alta, your Sux couldn't be drained because of the corresponding Exp gained]

Hisha rubbed his chin, internally glad about his Sux being replenished.

Stretching out, he cleaned his eyes and grinned from ear to ear.

[As long as you have sufficient rest without as much interference from a certain harem member, you should get it replenished]

Nodding his head to the information, Hisha yawned once more and his eyes roved around his room.

'Why do I feel as though something fun is on its way?' Hisha wondered within his thoughts.

Knock!

Knock!

'Was I meant to have any visitors?' Hisha questioned, hoping his system could register his unconscious actions.

Thinking he had been sleep talking or calling that would warrant an unprecedented appearance, he got to the edge of the bed, slowly placing his feet on the cold flooring.

If it was Kritz, he would have made his presence known or would have told him.

'HTC, do you have any idea who it might be?'

[I'm a system, not some psychic]

Sweatdropping, Hisha reluctantly got to his feet and slipped on his silk robe.

While knotting the belt, he made his way towards the door, confident that he couldn't be outwitted, he opened it.

"Solara?" Hisha stumbled back in shock at her appearance at his doorstep.

"C-could I come in?" She said in a whisper, fiddling with her fingers.

Recovering from the initial shock, he nodded his head and slammed the door shut with the wave of his hand.

Click!

The lock was turned clockwise.

Solara momentarily looked behind her and back at Hisha with a timid smile.

Her hands were placed in front of her and her attention to the floor.

"How were you able to gain access here?" He began, unsure of how it was even possible for any of his harems to get in.

Solara's lashes batted and she rubbed the side of her arm.

Feeling the room warm up, he could tell she was nervous and had unintentionally activated her ability.

"You need to calm down and tell me," Hisha spoke slowly and in a low tone.

Edging closer to her, she almost looked like she was lost and needed help back.

When he noticed her lips move a little, he leaned forward to get word of what she wanted to say.

"It was Kritz, he had told me you needed to see me personally." She mumbled.

'Kritz?!' Hisha exclaimed in his thoughts, shocked by the revelation.

[Ability: Time manipulation]

[Host, I think that your loyal assistant used the wish on you, but realized the mistake]

'Huh?' Hisha furrowed his brow and immediately requested to view what had transpired the previous night while Kritz had tried to utilize the wish.

A cloud of smoke formed in a circular motion had him peering into a translucent and mirror-like view that blurred for a moment before showing what had transpired.

Reading Kritz's lip movements, he could tell Kritz was wishing for his closeness with the chosen harem members–the very ones who could help him defeat Yoru.

Hisha gasped in shock, that mere wish had made him realize there was more to what the original host had shared with Kritz.

[Isn't that cute? He sacrificed his wish for you!]

'This isn't funny HTC, I can't use it a week from now and it got flushed down the drain for something that couldn't work for me!'

With frustration getting the best of him, he turned to a suspended Solara by his ability.

'Why would he tell Solara to be here?' He looked puzzled as he scanned Solara's body.

She was wearing a white sheer mesh maxi dress overlay from the waist down with a fitted bustier design.

It was held by thin elasticated adjustable shoulder straps.

The split detail up one side of her tight gave off a seductive glimpse of her skin.

He could tell at first glance that she had dressed to impress and rightly chosen, he was.

[How about watching for yourself what she plans on doing?]

Rubbing his chin, Hisha nodded to the suggestion, curious about what that could mean for him and Solara.

Looking down at his black silk bathrobe, he began to wonder if fate was pulling them closer.

Deactivating the time manipulation, he stared at Solara as she fumbled to maintain her composure.

In contrast to how she is in the arena or during battles, with him she was as meek as a lamb.

Walking up close to her, he pulled her by the waist and raised her head a bit so she could stare into his eyes.

"Tell me, what do you need?" He asked with a hoarse voice.

Her pupils dilated at his offer, biting down on her bottom lip with her cheeks flushed.

"I want to be intimate with you, I've always craved that, at least once before I might meet my–"

Placing his index finger over her lips, Hisha shook his head, "I can be tolerant to the first request, but not the last–have more faith in your ability to stay by my side."

[Real smooth, host. Real smooth...]

Hisha restrained himself from cursing at his system for its sarcastic comment.

Solara's mood brightened up by his encouragement, grabbing him by the collar and planting a kiss on his lips.

Pulling away immediately, she looked down and pushed back a strand of her hair that had fallen on her face.

"I... I couldn't–"

Cutting off her opportunity to defend her actions, Hisha held the side of her face and went in for a deep and passionate kiss to stop her from speaking.

'This has been what I had wished for since the first time we met.' Hisha revealed his thoughts, pushing her up against the wall.
