Making a harem after transmigrating

This came as a shock to everyone. He just casually revealed that their home planet was destroyed.

Nova and he didn't think too much of it, but as for everyone else, it was horrifying.

All of them stared at Evan with disbelief and had the same question in their head,

'How?'

Evan didn't make them wait any longer and explained further,

"One foreign existence attacked us just now, and I sent both Mizuki and Anna away from Earth because of that. He was the one responsible for destroying the Earth."

He said in a summary with a lie that it was destroyed by Sylvanus. He didn't want to make them blame Nova for that.

But contrary to what he was planning, Nova had different thoughts. She wasn't going to play with him.

"It was me who destroyed the Earth. That guy who proclaimed himself as god harmed my brother. He rightfully deserved to die at my hands. My little brother is mine, and no one takes him away from me or anyone who has him; I won't care even if he is a god; I will kill that person."

Nova said firmly, she was doing this to make them all feel the disparity between them all. Simply put, she was trying to assert her dominance. In this aspect, she was the same as Seraphina; the only difference was Seraphina was fine with Evan having multiple women, and Nova wasn't.

Her revelation put them all in even more shock. But none of them had the thought of leaving Evan at all. And Nova's plan failed utterly.

"So what? Evan, I can do that. If I was old like you, I could even do better than you." Lyra said while looking at Nova, not fearing her at all.

"I can do it too in some time; I just knew about all these new powers late. Otherwise, I will already be stronger than you," Celestina added after Lyra.

Even though she was older than Lyra and Nova, she is a human, well was a human, now is a descendant of a god. But still, her potential was lower than theirs, and she even knew about cultivation just recently, so it was going to take more time for her.

Following the queue it was now turn for Mizuki. She gulped down when she realized it was her turn, and said meekly after a little thought,

"Ahh... why don't we just quit fighting and live happily?"

She suggested a peace treaty between them. All of them weren't fools to not understand that this quarrel wasn't going to take them anywhere.

So all of them nodded their head and agreed to abide by it for a while... yeah, just for a while, their fighting is going to continue for a long time.

Seeing them all fighting for him made Evan happy because even in their fight they were only showing love for him. He was forced to wonder what would have happened if he had died in his battle with Sylvanus.

This time, Nova came in time to protect him, but it can't be certain that she will come every time. He also didn't want to depend on others for his survival. Yeah, all of the people present were indeed people whom he could depend on, but their overall strength right now wasn't strong. Even he wasn't strong right now.

'I have to make them all stronger and myself as well. Living on Earth, I was getting full of myself as no one was there who could fight against me. But now, I can't even beat a clone of a god who was being held captive in prison. This strength that I am getting arrogant for is a borrowed strength for them all, I have to get stronger myself. I have to make my strength.'

"Why don't you all go and sit for a while, agree or not, you all will be living together from now on, so get familiar with each other. I have something to do now."

Saying that Evan disappeared from his place, he could teleport to anywhere inside the sect, so he went to the peak mountain of the sect and sat on a stone there.

Gentle breezes brushed his hair while he took the beautiful scenery of his sect into his eyes.

He came to this quiet place to sort his thoughts out; everything happened so suddenly that he wasn't able to think clearly.

[Are you okay, host?]

Evan didn't speak for a while and stayed quiet. He was just gazing at the sect beneath his feet. And after a brief while, he spoke,

'Now I know why the elders or sect masters in that cultivation world used to live in such a secluded place; those brawn-for-brain MCs will never understand this peace.'

A said with a serene look on his face. He waited for a while and spoke again,

'Hey system, do you have access to just my feelings or even to my memories?'

[Why do you ask that, host?]

'Just say it.'

[I have access to your memories as well.]

Evan became quiet again and just hummed. He spoke again after a while,

'You... are a person, right?'

[Why are you asking me such things? I am your system.]

'Just tell me honestly, I am not in the mood for lies right now. If you trust me, then say it to me. You may choose not to if you don't feel like it.'

The system went silent this time. Evan did as well; he was waiting for it to speak, but seeing its silence, he thought it didn't want to tell him right now.

'Is it because I am weak? You said I am not allowed to know many things because of my strength, is your identity something like that as well?'

[No, host. If you want to know about me, I can tell you everything. But, indeed, you can't know many things yet because you are too weak. And I am not saying it just to keep you away from knowing the truth, but it's for your safety. If the truth was so easy for everyone to know, then everyone would be strong.]

[Sometimes knowing too much is dangerous for yourself. I can tell you about you as well, but it's not time for that yet.]

Evan pondered for a while and said,

'You know what I saw when I was unconscious?'

[I know what you saw.]

'She was a woman who used to take care of the orphanage that I used to live in. I considered her my mother when I was little, most of the kids did, but those who were a bit bigger knew that she was just a caretaker.'

'She used to tell me many stories as well. All of them were interesting but some weren't something that should be told to a child. They went like, a demon killed everyone on a planet in search of something, he didn't spare anyone, not old, young, woman, no one. There wasn't anyone to stop him as well; those with strength were bound by something and never used their strength to stop him, so he went into a frenzy with his destruction. But...

'As every sinful creature or a villain in a story, there is a hero as well. He, with a sword that radiated with the brilliance of mightful creation, held a divine power that no one could touch beside him and, one by one, killed all the sinners. He gave them salvation and freed them from their cursed life, but during that process, he couldn't find his salvation. He searched for it all his life, trying to find a place where he could rest and free himself from those prying eyes, but no matter what... they never went away.

'I still can't understand all of this, but now I think this is not just a fairytale. She was hinting at something. She said I was made to keep this existence alive. I don't know how someone like me is worthy enough to do that, but what I can do is keep the people around me safe. But here, I can't even keep myself alive. I don't even know what I can do to make myself stronger; even with all my knowledge, I can't cultivate, but I know what I can do now; I have to perfect myself. I am going to restart and train myself to use all of my strength to its max; I won't waste even a single bit of my strength.'

Evan clenched his hand, his eyes firm. Something was changing inside him; after this battle, he realized that if he just stayed in a well, then he couldn't hope to get to the ocean. Just being well and thinking he is a big fish is foolishness that he isn't going to follow any longer; he is going to become a monster that even those big whales fear.
