Chapter 32

After enjoying myself in the Is world for a while, it was time to go back, so I specially called over all the women I had connections with.

“I called you all here today because I have something to tell you. I want to take you all home.” The living room is now full of people. Charlotte and her daughter, Cecilia, the Shino sisters, Chifuyu Orimura, Laura, Suzune Ootori, the Karashi sisters, Maya Yamada, and others have all come to my house. I’m standing in the middle of the living room, stating my main purpose. As for a certain goddess, she slipped away on her own after her mission failed.

“Your home? You mean your hometown? China?” Cecily, sitting on the sofa, looked at me with a puzzled expression. If “home” didn’t refer to this house, then it must be my teacher’s hometown. Meanwhile, Charlotte and her daughter, who had been with me the longest in this world, looked thoughtful.

“Well, actually I’m not from this world. I think most of you have guessed that.” Hearing my words, most people seemed relieved. After all, with such a strong and strange ability, it seemed reasonable to say that I came from another world. But some people were surprised, such as Laura, who had never considered my origins.

“So you’re going to take us to other worlds?” Shinonono looked at me with great interest, and seemed a little excited.

“Well, how should I put it, you’re talking about other worlds, or you could say it’s a small world. But that’s just my home. It’s like going to a remote ranch. There’s no big world for you to see there, so I said I’m going to my home, not my world.”

“Oh, really?” Upon hearing my words, Shinonono Tsukasa looked quite disappointed, with her mechanical rabbit ears drooping. I felt a little disappointed, but more than that, I thought Tsukasa was deliberately trying to be cute.

“You’re always thinking about random things. Once you’re more familiar with each other, I’ll give you a chance to visit other worlds. I’ll also take you to my house, not just for a look around, since you’re all mine now. Isn’t it normal for you to stay at my house?” As soon as I said this, several of the more shy or proud ones blushed, like Shinonono Houki, Oo Rinne, and Yamada Maya.

“Of course you can come back here anytime. It’s just a change of residence. As long as I go back and establish a connection between the two worlds, I can return with just one teleportation. Then you can continue your studies or become teachers or something. No problem at all.”

Considering that not everyone is as carefree in this world as Charlotte and her daughter, and the Shino sisters, I made that clear beforehand. People like Cecilia, who have relatives, can come back to visit occasionally, and can also continue doing their work here.

“Hey, isn’t this great? I thought it would be a lot of trouble. What are we waiting for? Let’s go!” Huang Lingyin’s parents are still alive, so she was concerned about this issue. Now it seems there’s no problem at all. When she first heard it, she thought it would be very difficult to come back, and she would have to say goodbye to her parents properly. After all, traveling through worlds is still a bit of a fantasy for Is’s current technology.

“So, does everyone have any objections?” Seeing that no one had any objections, I activated the teleportation array, which immediately emitted a white light. The women looked down and saw that it was an array with intricate patterns.

“Oh, right, I might not be able to show you around my house later, it’ll probably be a little late, so don’t worry about me.” As soon as I finished speaking, the women felt a blur before their eyes, and the scene before them completely changed.

A clear blue sky, vast grasslands, and distant amber forests and mountains. Small animals occasionally roam around, and not far away stands a castle? Or a villa? It’s called a castle, but it also has a modern architectural style. It’s truly enormous; even without being inside, you can appreciate its grandeur.

“Welcome to my kingdom, the Land of Shadows. As for my brother who has gone astray, I’ll take him with me for now. I’ll talk to you all later. Sakuya, take good care of them. From today onwards, they are the mistresses of this place.”

Before the women could react to the scene before them, a mature and aloof voice rang in their ears. Then they realized that I, who had been in front of them, was gone, replaced by a silver-haired maid.

“Everyone, don’t worry about Master’s condition. This is just another round of domestic violence. You’ll get used to it. Now, let me take you all to see the house.” The silver-haired maid was as sarcastic as ever about her shameless master. Despite this, she still dutifully gestured for her to proceed. If I were in her shoes, I would definitely say, “As expected of the perfect and dashing head maid,” and then go up and take advantage of her.
