Harem Overlord: I ALWAYS Finish Quick!-Chapter 160 Smut Isn’t Necessary, It’s A Necessity

Later that night (49 days until the wedding)...

"Alright," Page said. "I've made my decision on who is going to be in my harem and who will become my servants!"

Ryan raised his eyebrow. 'I don't remember anything about becoming her servant if we lost.'

Glancing over at Dennis and Robbin, Ryan saw they didn't seem to mind the news; they seemed surprised but cheerful.

'Guess Page is truly loved by her people.'

"Dennis, Robbin, please step forward," Page said, looking the two in their eyes.

Dennis and Robbin looked at each other and nodded, stepping forward.

"You both have proven your strength and skills as dragons, but I'm sorry," Page shook her head.

"You both won't be my new harem member."

Seemingly expecting this outcome, the duo dropped to one knee and said, "We are grateful to be able to serve you."

Page smiled. "I expect great things out of you both."

Turning her eyes upon Ryan, her expression softened, and a blush lit up her cheeks.

"Ryan, please step forward."

Doing as asked, Ryan came within a few feet of the Dragon Empress before stopping, looking into her purple plum-colored eyes.

"Throughout this competition, your skill, strength, and, most of all, personality has won me over."

"Last night on our date, I truly felt feelings for you and wished you to become a member of my harem," she said, her hands slightly trembling.

She looked into Ryan's emerald eyes and stuttered, "D-Do you accept?"

Giving a confident grin, Ryan walked up to Page and took her hand, kissing the back.

"I do."

Page's heart skipped a beat as Ryan took her hand in his.

"Then," Page turned to Gwen, "I'll leave the rest to you," before she flashed away, leaving Ryan bewildered.

Gwen chuckled. "Congratulations, Ryan Emerald, on becoming the Dragon Empress's first official harem member."

"Don't we have to perform a sacred ceremony?" Ryan said in disappointment.

Gwen arched her eyebrow. "Are you that eager to have sex?"

Ryan turned, his gaze suddenly becoming as serious as a gaze could get.

"I am always ready to have sex."

"But when it comes to a woman as hot as that one," Ryan said, pointing at the disappearing dragon.

"It's not about being eager."

"It's about a necessity."

"About the lust, the insatiable craving to be buried deep inside her, fondling her breasts while she moans in pleasure."

"The need for her to scream my name while her thoughts focus on nothing but my cock deep inside her cunt."

"It's about-"

[MASTER!] Yoko's scream inside his head cut off Ryan's thoughts as he abruptly paused his sentence.

Blinking, Ryan looked, seeing Lady Gwen's face beet red, her mouth open.

"Uh, yeah. I guess you could say I like her a bit," Ryan said, scratching his head.

"Uh, well, um..." Lady Gwen tried to come up with something to say, but her words only came out as a jumbled mess.

"It's good that you're so eager," she said, finally focusing her thoughts.

"But you'll need to give her some time. She's not exactly an experienced lover." ƒ𝒓e𝐞we𝚋𝙣ｏ𝚟𝚎𝘭.co𝙢

Ryan grinned. "Oh, don't worry, I can change that."

===

On the way toward the Dragon Empire's palace, Ryan recalled what Lady Gwen had just told him.

"Harem members are respected members of the Dragon Empresses court and are treated as nobility."

"You will be able to prove your worth and climb in rank and responsibility."

"Although your main job is to look good for the Dragon Empress, your future is limitless." 𝘧𝔯e𝗲𝙬ℯ𝙗𝓷o𝘷e𝗹.𝐜𝑜𝒎

Lady Gwen had gone on to say beautiful things about being in the care of the Dragon Empress, but Ryan knew he wouldn't be sticking around forever.

'Just as long as needed,' Ryan thought.

Arriving at a large castle, Ryan was ushered into a room where five women waited for him, two of whom Ryan recognized.

"Welcome, newest harem member," a tall brown-haired girl wearing high heels said.

Ryan felt a chill down his spine looking at the woman, not from fear but from disgust.

This woman was a viper, the same as many he had met in his previous life.

Usually, women like this didn't exist in this world because power ruled Ravier, but apparently, deception and manipulation ruled the Dragon Empress's harem, and this viper seemed to be in charge.

"You will greet me properly, dog," the woman said, her evil smile giving Ryan the urge to vomit.

"On your knees."

After she spoke, the two remaining women, not Gwen or Amanda, stepped toward Ryan, licking their lips.

"Is this really necessary, Isabelle?" Gwen asked, frowning.

Isabelle snarled, "You had to do the same. It's just initiation."

Amanda, however, only smiled at Isabelle's words, muttering, "It's not like this is going to work anyway."

As the two girls got close to Ryan, he said, "I won't be kneeling."

Looking directly into Isabelle's eyes, Ryan put his hands on the two women's wrists and lightly put pressure on their vital points, forcing his energy into them and causing them to fall unconscious.

Isabelle gritted her teeth as she looked down at her two servants and fellow harem members lying on the ground.

Finally, she growled, "You'll pay for this!" Then she grabbed the two unconscious girls by the hair and dragged them out the door.

Ryan shook his head and walked up to Lady Gwen and Amanda.

"Hello, Lady Gwen. Amanda," Ryan said, nodding to both.

Gwen shook her head, "We're equals now, and in some ways, you're higher ranked than me because you're an official member."

"Please call me Gwen," Gwen said, reaching out her arm.

Instead of grabbing her hand, Ryan leaned in and kissed her cheek, whispering, "Feel free to call me anything you'd like."

Gulping, Gwen nervously blushed and chuckled before bowing and hurrying out of the room.

Ryan turned to Amanda and raised his eyebrow.

"What exactly was that?"

Amanda sighed, shaking her head. "That was Isabelle and her two goons that run the harem."

"She was here before Gwen or me and is Page's favorite."

Ryan looked perplexed, asking, "How is Isabelle the Dragon Empress's favorite?"

"Apparently, the two grew up together, and Isabelle was some high noble before she became part of Page's harem."

Remembering what Gwen had said, Ryan asked, "Gwen said that the Dragon Empress wasn't that experienced a lover. How?"

Lightly chuckling, Amanda looked into Ryan's eyes. "It's because she doesn't sleep with us. At least she hasn't yet."

Biting her lip, she said, "Something tells me you'll be the first of us to succeed."

Shrugging, Ryan said, "Then what do you do all day?"

'My harem members train in my palace all day or go on missions, but I'm preparing for war. I doubt that the Dragon Empress requires them to do anything of the sort,' Ryan thought, thinking of his harem.

Tapping her chin, Amanda said, "Well, we usually interact with the nobles and keep them in check."

"Gwen is higher ranked than me, and she helps with some political components, but I stay in my lane and help here and there while being a good friend and confidant to Page."

Ryan chuckled. "Yes, you were a great confidant when you spilled all her secrets to me," Ryan said as he gripped her chin.

"That was different. I didn't tell you anything you wouldn't find out after you won," Amanda said, moving toward the door.

Turning around, she winked. "Come, let me show you to your new room."
