No Otaku with Harem System

Chapter 40: King Arthur's Way Is Unpleasant

This will be troublesome.

After we got to the house of the woman named Rika I pretended to pass out so I could get away from the group and stabilize my Ki. Having such a big improvement suddenly is not something simple, the Ki inside me is overflowing and if I lose control for a moment then my Berserker ability could be activated which would be dangerous for those around me.

I cannot use Hamon to stabilize myself as that would attract all the infected from the area so I can only use Rasen and my willpower to control myself.

The worst thing is that the technique that I developed to calm my unbridled sexual desire depends on the Hamon so it will be problematic if I have another orgy, I do not want to fall into something problematic again. It may be fun to do it, but there will be more losses than gains in the long run.

Since I can't control myself completely, I thought that Shizuka, Chizuru, or Midori would take care of me, then I would convince them with flowery words typical of a fairy tale hero and so I could relax a bit with some of them.

I didn't think that Saeko would insist on staying to take care of me, it seems that my performance as a hero and warrior was more effective than I thought.

Now that I think about it, Saeko's attitude when she asked my permission to beat up the gang members was similar to the behavior of Mr. Ichijou's most loyal guards. It seems that Saeko has already accepted me as her lord.

There is still the violent and cruel impulse that Saeko hides, if I can show her that I can not only accept everything from her but also understand her then it will not only be her loyalty that will give me, I will also have her heart.

Blind loyalty may sound nice, but it has the flaw of turning people into puppets, if a manipulative person can take advantage of that loyalty then it is possible for a servant to betray his master because of his own loyalty.

In addition to unwavering loyalty, you need to add a feeling of belonging. Using the logic of political propaganda, the leaders of a country use nationalistic ideas to make people fall in love with their nation which makes them manipulable and influenceable, if the government marks another country as an enemy then the people will accept it as if it was the most natural thing to do without bothering to check the information.

This allows the government to manipulate its citizens, but in turn, makes it vulnerable to public opinion, if the government makes mistakes then its citizens could go crazy or in case the brainwashing is very deep, citizens can attack foreigners for the simple fact of not being from the same country which will bring problems to their own government.

In other words, loyalty is different from emotional dependence. In the first, the person renounces his will and becomes an unstable puppet, in the second the person maintains his will and initiative but acts for the good of the source of his dependence even if he loses his life in the process.

Both are two sides of blind faith but the difference is focus and profit.

If I had to make one last comparison, loyalty belongs to a military-political system where there is a possibility of rebellion, emotional dependence is the approach used by extremist religious groups of any religion.

Looking at both, there is less chance of betrayal in dependency than in loyalty.

That is why it is better to win an almost obsessive-dependent love rather than possess a supposedly unshakable loyalty.

After thinking of a lot of absurd justifications I stopped pretending to be unconscious and looked at Saeko.

She saw me move and open my eyes. When our gazes met Saeko showed a sweet smile that did not correspond to her character as a samurai woman of hers. - "Rest a little more. Do you want me to bring you something to eat?" - Saeko spoke in a tone that was between warmth and respect.

I smiled even kinder and shook my head. - "I'm fine, just a little tired"

I looked around the room as if trying to remember what happened, but my attention was on the group of survivors we brought in.

Using my Ki sensor and focusing my senses, I tried to figure out what was happening on the lower floor. For now, things seem fine, most of the survivors are together eating, I do not know what they are talking about nor can I see their expressions, but the feelings they give are those of joy and excitement so they should be at a party to improve the state of spirit.

What seems strange is that a part of the survivors is gathered in a corner giving off the feeling of being scared.

Did something happen? I don't feel any infected around so this is strange.

It will be better to check, but first I must take advantage of this moment with Saeko.

"You did a great job with the gang members and the infected, you are a really reliable companion" - I smiled appreciatively as I said this.

Seko looked happy as well as bitter, she does not want to be my partner since the partners are on the same level, instead, she will seek to be my subordinate or even a more ridiculous idea where she wants to be my belonging (sword).

Bushido sounds like a master-servant relationship in a bondage couple, maybe if I show more skill she will dedicate her life to me, I can also tempt her to teach her to use Ki.

"Actually" - Saeko spoke with some hesitation. - "I have seen your strength, skill and as well as your willingness to help others"

Saeko showed a resolute expression. - "In the name of the Busujima family, let me be your sword!"

Saeko bowed that I saw in a history book about samurai.

"Excuse me?" - What?

I was genuinely confused. This goes too fast, normally this should only happen to the protagonist due to the plot armor as - wait.

Oh shit.

"Hey Listen! Wow, great job partner! Although in a Thematic World the plot armor will not be entirely useful you still stole 70% of the plot armor from the idiot known as Takashi Komuro muahahaha! " - Navi appeared while he laughed in the most unhinged way I've ever heard.

What? This is wrong, I shouldn't have stolen so much plot armor so easily, I didn't get any system notifications either.

"Hey Listen! The system only reports if you steal a protagonist's plot armor in a Named World as the world revolves around the protagonist! There are multiple protagonists in the Theme Worlds so even if you steal a plot armor the system won't tell you as it is irrelevant! " - Navi kept bouncing everywhere, having a connection between us is useful so that Navi can clarify my doubts, but it is still annoying. - "If I weren't here then you wouldn't know anything about this! The system forbids me to tell you this information, but nothing can contain my grandiose bombastic grandeur! "

... I just heard something that bothers me, apparently, the system puts limitations on what I can learn what is unpleasant.

I had already thought about the possibility that the entity that gave me the system has plans for me and will not let me know important things, I am not even sure that Navi is completely my ally so I must strengthen myself without depending exclusively on the system.

On the other hand, if what Navi said is true then Navi is a system error so it is more reliable than the system itself.

Everything gets troublesome, but I have to solve one problem at a time.

For now, I know one thing, I have a lot of Takashi's plot armor, in terms of his functions I can say that the heroines who would originally be attracted to Takashi will now begin to be attracted to me. This will not completely make them fall in love, but it will make my job easier.

"Could you explain to me what you mean by turning my sword over?" - It took me two seconds to process all this information which gave me a headache, but I was able to respond to Saeko without having an awkward silence.

"In the Busujima family we have a rule, when a Busujima finds a teacher worthy of our loyalty then we will surrender our lives to that teacher" - Saeko was kneeling in a seiza position in front of me as she extended her hands to hand me her wooden sword. - "I, Busujima Saeko, granddaughter of the patriarch of the Busujima family, am willing to give my sword and my life to the service of my master."

… This was so easy it's absurd. The power of the plot armor is ridiculous, I definitely have to steal Kenichi's plot armor when I return to that world.

I got out of bed and stood in front of Saeko, I have read a little about Japanese etiquette in the Edo period out of curiosity but I'm not sure what to do now, I can still use medieval knight etiquette.

"I have seen your feelings and your dedication moves me, if you follow me I will never abandon you, if you fight for me then I will fight for you, you are my sword and I am your teacher so that together we are one" - I felt my stomach churn as imitated the main actor in the movie King Arthur.

Being a noble hero is sick.

I took Saeko's sword, with a smooth movement I touched Saeko's shoulders with the tip of the sword similar to the coronation of knights.

Saeko is a samurai and what I did was British knights, but I don't care, in my heart, everything is the same.

[Saeko Busujima has been added to the Harem]

[Saeko Busujima (knight)]

[Reward: 1 Growth-Type Sword, 1 Bone Hardening Pill, 1 Sword Technique Manual, 1 Gift of Love]

[Title: King of the Harem (5%)> (10%)]

[New Skill: Appointment of the King (1%)]

[King's Appointment: Now fight on behalf of this king!

As King of the Harem, it is necessary to have knights to fight your battles. Now you can appoint other people as your knights to strengthen them, the strength increases are equivalent to the level of the skill and the level of loyalty they have for you. Raises are only valid when fighting for the good of the user.

Current increase:

+ 2% for each skill level in (strength, stamina, vitality, energy regeneration, resistance to negative states, resistance to mind control, resistance to soul control)

+ 10% for every 20% loyalty.

Warning: Loyalty may decrease based on user actions]

[New section unlocked: Knights]

[Knights: Saeko Busujima (80% loyalty) (+ 42% stats)]

Today is full of surprises, I just hope that karma does not make up for it by giving me problems.

Who am I kidding, something troublesome will definitely happen.

Saeko ignored my pessimism as she stood up with a determined expression. I gave her back her wooden sword and we decided to go with the others to eat.

Although I'm sure I could sleep with Saeko in the here and now without her rejecting me in the slightest, that would lead to problems with a couple of tsunderes in the group.

Damn tsunderes, if they weren't necessary I would abandon them at the first opportunity even if they are cute.

I just hope my Harem doesn't fill with tsunderers or I'll die of a migraine.

As we went down to the first floor we could hear several female voices coming from the main room.

"Luis Baka! Hic, Why is it so popular?! Hic "- I think it's Mikoto.

"Mou hic, Luis-chan should join the party ~ hic" - Shizuka?

"That bastard is trying to steal my pretty Mikoto! Hic Unforgivable! Hic At least he has to let me join! Hic "- she is the girl with purple hair who was fighting against the infected, I think her name was Chikage

"What should I do if Luis doesn't wake up? Hic, What should I do? " - Midori really broke down.

"Calm down hic, you drank too much hic" - That was the girl with white hair and big breasts that I rescued, it's funny how she tries to calm the rest when she is also a little drunk.

I have a bad feeling that if I go with them there will be problems, but I worry that they will get drunk and the male students will use this moment to mess with the women that interest me.

At least that was my initial concern but when we got to the room I saw that all the male students and several female students were in a corner too scared to approach.

When I looked at Mikoto and Chikage I saw them holding a rifle and shotgun while pointing at the group of students.

"Listen idiots! Hic, If you dare to put a hand on us, I will make another hole in your crotch! Hic, Only the baka can get close! No-Not that I'm interested in him being here! " Mikoto looked crazy as she waved the rifle.

These women are forbidden from unsupervised drinking, although Mikoto deserves an award for keeping boys away as Shizuka and some teachers look quite erotic when they get drunk.

"Mikoto be careful not to shoot them by accident" - I showed a wry smile as I approached to calm her down.

It would be a waste if she ends up killing some of the useful subjects among the males, although if they try anything with these women I will personally turn them into zombie food.

"Do you know how worried I was ?! Baka baka baka! " - Mikoto started acting like a girl, but I didn't have time to calm her down since Mount Everest was about to crush me.

"Luis-chan is fine!" - Shizuka jumped to hug me while other women also approached.

Damn this is troublesome. I have not been able to lessen my arousal since I did not sleep with Saeko so this is straining my willpower.

[Will: Unyielding (50%)> (55%)]

This is troublesome. I haven't had a drink since the disaster at the Ryozanpaku so I need a beer.

What's the worst that could happen?

And here I am, again letting myself be carried away by my impulses while ignoring logic, when I do that it always ends badly.

Ah whatever, I'll blame it on the alcohol, that always works.
