Harem Tournament of Champions

Climbing over her, he slipped off his robe.

Knock!

Knock!

Freezing in place, Hisha hissed at the disturbance, knowing the only one who could dare knock at a time as such.

[Your very first cockblock!]

HTC snickered in Hisha's thoughts, flashing in front of his eyes a wiggling brow.

Hisha's brows twitched at the user interface and the implied meaning HTC gave.

Solara still stayed frozen in shock, confused, and unable to move due to the panic she was placed in.

She had not been chosen as his harem, so it was forbidden to be in his room. They could only engage in any sexual relationship while he visited their respective meretrixs.

Slipping back on his robe, he took reluctant steps to the door.

Opening the door just enough for him to peek through, he narrowed his eyes at Kritz.

Flashing a big grin at his lord, Kritz lightly touched his nose as a nervous reflex, knowing he had interrupted something, judging from Hisha's flushed face.

Clearing his throat, he prepared his thoughts on how he was to present the message he was sent to convey.

"My lord..." He bowed, receiving only a grunt as a response from Hisha.

Impatient and irritated at being disturbed when he was just getting to the best part.

He temporarily tried to push down his burning desire to relieve his throbbing erection.

Looking behind him, he could see Solara scurrying for something she could put on after he had ripped her dress.

'What a stupid idea that was!' He shook his head and turned his attention back to Kritz.

"What brings you here?" Hisha questioned, forcing a smile since he could tell what could bring Kritz to his doorstep.

"They are all awaiting your arrival at the arena." He reminded in a whisper, unsure if he was meant to convey the message in such a manner.

Hisha let out a sigh, he couldn't believe he had spent so much time engrossed in the Solara that he had lost track of the minutes taken.

Turning his attention back to Solara, she sat on the bed, unsure of her next move with Kritz obstructing the very place that would be her exit.

Mouthing the meretrix number she was placed in, she had hoped Hisha would find a way out of the dilemma she found herself in.

Secretly making a circular motion with two of his fingers, he created a portal that would allow her access to her meretrix on the other end.

Lightly stepping, she bundled up the bedsheet to cover up her nakedness and skipped in so she could hurry up into the arena.

​ Convinced that Zui must have searched for her and would be worried.

Kritz waited, having heard the sounds of bed creaking and footsteps.

'I did disturb them earlier.' He lowered his head further down in despair.

Confirming Solara's departure, Hisha shook his head and peeked through the space he had created by opening the door.

Kritz grimaced when Hisha furrowed his brows to the news and looked displeased at the turn of events.

"All are present?" Hisha tried to confirm and find loopholes not to leave under Kritz's surveillance.

"Even the tribal chiefs are present," Kritz affirmed, tackling Hisha's original purpose of asking.

Remembering the wish he had made, he looked up to Hisha with a faint smile. "I hope you had a pleasant morning?"

Hisha raised a brow, replaying the question in his thoughts, he came to realize the hidden meaning in Kritz's seemingly innocent question.

"I know you had a hand in what happened today." He beamed with delight, playfully nudging him in the ribs.

Kritz broke off into a light chuckle, much to the surprise of Hisha.

Sensing Hisha had a prolonged stare at him, Kritz composed himself and found it hard to maintain the gaze at him.

"I had thought you were as stiff as an upright pole, no emotions sort of person, but you laughed," Hisha replied.

Kritz was more shocked than he was, "I... laughed?"

Nodding his head, Hisha dismissed his worries and assured he would be out once he was done preparing.

"But my lord..."

Raising his hand to counter what he would have wished to say, Hisha shook his index finger. "It's best you don't rush me."

Timidly asking, Kritz spoke up once more. "Could I stand guard? I need to be sure you are safe and free from trouble."

'Protect me from trouble?' Hisha had wanted to question the idea behind it but gave in nonetheless.

"We leave together if that's fine with you."

Kritz bobbed his head, glad he found himself useful.

*****

In the arena,

The loud cheers of the harem members upon sighting Hisha stepping into the arena came with thunderous applause.

Hisha ignored the praises and focused his attention on the throne he so richly wanted to throw his leg onto the left armrest.

The moment he had climbed up the stairs, he felt a dark aura disseminating from his left, and his head whipped in the direction of Mich.

Mich gave a light bow from his chair and put on the most enchanting smile he could muster.

'Fuck you!' Hisha spat in disdain, rolling his eyes and making his way forward to his glorious chair.

Mich let out a sigh of relief as he used his ruse smile to hide the fear and trembling in his eyes.

The moment he had seen Hisha, his heart began to pound at the possibility of being found out on his order made to the forest after the little tip he had been given.

'You still haven't been punished for the little stunt you wanted to play on me while I was in the forest!' Hisha's green eyes glowed for a flash before reverting.

There was no way he was going to forget how he had felt for the first time–the inability to use his Sux, or how he was minutes away from being sealed by the crazy trio.

[You would have your moment, host. Now take it slowly]

Taking deep breaths on how he would handle the situation and satisfy his need to vent out a bit of his anger, he forced a stoic face and made his way to sit down on his throne.

Fighting the urge to sit as he had planned, he widened his legs and steepled his fingers.

Kritz stood by his side with a straight face, awaiting the order to be given to commence the tournament.

Getting to his feet, Hisha paced about a bit as he watched and took note of the harem members he knew by name.

When he spotted Solara among the crowd, he let out a sigh, unable to take her naked body off his mind.

'Control your thoughts, you stupid lustful overlord!' Hisha scolded both himself and the body he found himself in.

It was best not to strike a boner in front of everyone, especially not the tribal chiefs.

He continued with his eyes roving until he could identify Pesa sitting idle and uninterested.

She blew on her nails, watching the empty arena as she imagined what it would be like to engage.

When she raised her head to meet the gaze of Hisha, she narrowed her eyes at him.

Concertedly nodding her head while passing a piece of secret information to him–if she was called up to the arena, she hoped Hisha would return her ability just in time for her to utilize it to its full capacity.

His eyes searched once more for Alta and were stunned seeing her sitting alone but was more than shocked when he saw Solara walking up to her alongside Zui and sitting beside her.

[Is this the beginning of a friendship between them?]

'Don't even start with me.' Hisha rolled his eyes as he proceeded to continue.

"I welcome everyone to the second part of the tournament. As we have all seen, it is a duel that could either end your life, break, or in a positive light–leave you victorious." Hisha announced in a loud voice.

There was a deafening silence as they all nodded to Hisha's words, the tribal chiefs behind him all humming to his words.

[Duel: 7]

[Number of possible harems participating: 21]

[Victories: 0]

[Points accumulated during the tournament: 0]

Hisha paused as he stared at the translucent screen in front of him. Doing the math, this duel was a little different from the previous one his harem members had gone through.

'HTC, tell me you're joking about this.' Hisha pinched the bridge of his nose, knowing the death rate was just going to double up from the last time.
