Battle Harem of the Heavenly Sword



Unsure if she could believe what this man was saying, the voice everyone heard started to tremble.

'What if I become a bad girl? Or what if I do something wrong? …Will you abandon me like the others? I have watched the lives of numerous dragons. …They were all taken in at first but they were left to die in solitude when enemies came for them. How can I be sure you won't abandon me like all the others?'

"Unfortunately I don't have a way of making such a promise except through my words."

'Then make bind yourself with a geas for me. If you break your words your life is forfeit.'

When the others heard the details of the dragon's request most tried to speak and stop Hiro from undergoing a geas. Yet the man simply held up his hand causing them to stop. As Hiro never intended to break his vow, it did not matter to him if he was held accountable for it.

"If such a thing makes it easier for you. Then I will bind myself with a geas."

Due to his background in gaming and weeb culture back when he was on earth, Hiro learned a ton of stuff from other cultures. A Geas was like a magical oath in Irish folklore. When a geas is broken that one bound to it usually dies or loses strength.

The most famous of them was Cu Chulainn. An Irish legendary warrior that died after he broke his geas of eating dog meat. This basically meant the dragon wanted a guarantee. Should Hiro break his oaths to her, he dies in exchange.

Even when told if such a dangerous proposition, Hiro didn't even bat an eye as he said. "Then please teach me how to do a geas. Or if you have a skill then use it on me."

The dragon's reptilians glowed in green like they were on fire as she spoke. 'I have invoked the skill.'

Hiro replied and confirmed with the dragon. "Okay. Then tell me what you want me to swear on the geas."

At this moment the dragon's voice started to get emotional as it continued to tremble. "Swear that you will not betray me or that you will abandon me when I make a mistake." The words like a knife cut up a part of Hiro's heart. For such simple things to be this being's ultimate desire, just what did she have to endure?

Hiro couldn't help but think. 'Rilu, just how many times did you get betrayed? You still remain full of life despite enduring such suffering?' Eventually, the butcher began to write his geas.

"I swear on my life. I will never betray you nor will I abandon you if you make a mistake…"

'Okay, then that will be enough.' Contrary to the dragon's expectations, however, Hiro kept going even after he finished reciting what she asked for.

"…I will embrace you when you are scared. I will feed you food that will make you happy. I will care for you when you are sick. So long as I am alive anyone who harms you will suffer my wrath. Until the day you find your purpose in this world, my doors will always be open for you…"

'Stop! Having too specific a geas will kill you!'

"I vow to love you like a daughter, no problem will be too big or too small…"

'STOOOPP!'

Hiro then ceased talking as he waited for the dragon's complaints.

'Why do you cherish me so? What did I do to make you be willing to vow all this under the yoke of death?'

"You allowed me to save my wives Rilu. They are alive right now because of your actions. I will always be grateful for that. I could not help you or save you in our past life. I am sorry. I am so sorry. But I promise you in this life. So long as I draw breath none will harm you."

Hiro who started to shed tears of sorrow felt his hurt crushed from pain. As if finally grieving for Rilu, the sadness he got for her circumstances, her sacrifice, and her ultimate end washed over him like a flood.

Steam suddenly started to come out of the dragon's body as Hiro wept. The smoke grew so powerful that it enveloped the dragon's body hiding it in plain sight.

Before anything else could happen a young ten-year-old child covered in black-colored reptilian skin suddenly popped out of the smoke. The child had vertical slit emerald eyes. She had black hair and an extremely beautiful face.

The young dragon quickly ran towards Hiro and wrapped her arms around his waist. Hiro who kneeled down returned her embrace. The dragonkin then patted the head of her would-be father.I think you should take a look at

"There, there, Rilu is among those that had a happy death. Thank you for shedding tears for her sake. Do not worry I do not have the skill to create a geas. I just wanted to see how much I meant to you."

Hiro pulled back as he replied. "Is that so? Then how much do you believe you mean to me then?" The child then opened her arms as wide as she could and said in a strained voice. "Thhhiiiiss muuuchhh!"

Looking at the childish antics of the dragonkin he felt happy. As the dragonkin turned back to her human form the additional stats gained from her dragon form naturally disappeared.

"Then will you still leave?" asked the butcher.

The young dragonkin then explained while she crossed her arms. "No, I wish to stay with you. You would cry too much if I left."

"Right, thank you for thinking of me. Hmm, I just remembered you do not even have a name right now."

"Oh? Then you give me one?"

"Me?"

"Yes, I want you to give me a name. Isn't it normal for kids to be named by their parents?"

"You are right, my daughter is so smart."

Hiro then patted the child's head while he playfully hugged her. Extremely pleased with the praise the dragonkin laughed innocently in bliss like she had won the lottery.

"Then I named you Ryuuka. From today on your name will be Ryuuka Mitsurugi. It means 'Dragon Flower'".

"Ryuuka. Ryuuka. Ryuuka! Okay! I like it a lot. From today on I will be Ryuuka! Thank you, Daddy!"

The young Ryuuka then wrapped her small arms around Hiro's neck and hugged him tight. "Thank you for wanting my daddy. I actually heard everything that happened while I was asleep. So I already know how silly you can be."

Just then a white-haired streak, dashed and swept Ryuuka, into her arms and twirled her in the air! "Ryuuka! Ryuuka! How can you be so cute! We are family now! I am your aunt Tsugumi! I have waited so long to meet you!"

Ryuuka who grew happier from Tsugumi's adoration similarly hugged her aunt with both her arms. "Please to meet you, aunt Tsugumi!"

Suddenly Tsugumi then shouted as she continued twirling like a ballerina. "KYA! OH, MY WORD! HOW ADORABLE! Oh, but don't call me Tsugumi obasan okay? I will get angry if you do. That is only for old people. If you want you can just call me onee-chan. Even if I am your aunt I like onee-chan better!"

Not really understanding Japanese Ryuuka just did as she was told, she nodded her head as she called out to her new aunt. "Okay Tsugumi-Onee-chan. I am Ryuuka. Papa's daughter!"

"KYA! NII-SAMA! Can I just adopt Ryuuka to my family instead? I want her to be my daughter instead!"

"Denied, just make your own Tsugu. Don't you have like three husbands?"

The woman put down Ryuuka as she twiddled her fingers. "Eh?… thats… hmm… It is still too early for us…what am I saying."

While they were talking three women approached Ryuuka and tried to talk to her.

"Hi Ryuuka, we are your daddy's wives. So we are now your new mommies."

The child quickly replied to their dismay. "Don't wanna! I don't need a mommy!"
