My wife's sisters want me to make a harem?!

Chapter 85: Deadly Silence

"We shall continue our journey," Minato entered the carriage.

His elven queen was already here as Minato was a gentleman! Besides, Ingrid shone more than ever, be it her beauty or mood. She was so happy that even Aya couldn't tease her anymore!

She left many men stupefied on their way toward the carriage.

Minato entered then, and Bartlo was naturally the last one to do so.

Looking at the fourth son, Minato wanted to ask about that guy's relationship. He already heard about Bartlo's talk with his women and how most of them left him alone...

Their faces rendered them ugly, and they couldn't endure the shame and pain... That pain heightened in Bartlo's presence, so they just left him.

However, Bartlo believed that at least a few would return.

For now, he strove to survive through this chaos and prayed for a better future.

Minato inferred as such after Bartlo's conduct around him, then smiled, "Has at least one woman of yours supported you wholeheartedly?"

Bartlo's eyes rose, and he nodded, "Yes, I am blessed enough..."

She was a thoughtful wife!

In her life, she met many overbearing and outstanding males. Those people conducted similarly, meaning that they would fight their way for women and gather them. That was how people used their strength.

She didn't find any fault in Bartlo's act... Of course, her love was genuine, and she was a little blinded by it, but that was how their world was.

Besides, it was hard to see through Minato. At first glance, one wouldn't think of him as the Overlord.

It was different after he donned himself in more royal clothes.

That was why Bartlo's wife didn't hate her husband. She also listened to Minato's words before. So she wholeheartedly decided to support her husband and endure the same pain with him.

Minato side-glanced at Ingrid.

His cute queen nodded and took out a small fruit. That fruit was similar to an apple, but its color was golden!

It was golden fruit from the World Tree.

"She's a good woman. Let her eat it, and her scars will disappear," Minato said, then closed his eyes.

That golden fruit hid a catch within itself, however.

If Bartlo even thought of sharing it with other women to get them back, then his only supportive woman would remain with the same scars. Taking a bite wouldn't solve the problem. Only eating the whole would.

That was unnecessary thought, however.

Minato opened his eyes and peeked at Bartlo's face. That man let out tears of happiness as he stared at the fruit. He called out his beloved's name a few times, and he didn't even think of sharing it with other women.

Perhaps, he noticed the catch in Minato's words as the Overlord just called out one woman. Nonetheless, Bartlo wouldn't make any mistake, and it was his good fortune.

The carriage went forward to the next dungeon city without anyone barring their way...

It looked like Minato's journey wouldn't stop in some time!

And his presence alone already planted more fear in all!

"Hard Steel Empire is mine. I told you, didn't I? Are you going against our rules?" A man with tanned skin asked in a jubilant tone.

That was the same man who had spoken with the Emperor!

His name was Tuto.

Tuto stared at a man who was someone akin to his colleague.

Well, they were the Overlord Enemies. Their abilities were much different from the rest, though. Of course, they couldn't be comparable to the Snake Concubine, but they were much better than the group whose forte was speed.

They always appeared in low worlds simultaneously, yet no one worked together. They had their own rules, and all followed them diligently.

Tuto felt weird as he reminded his friend about those rules, "What's wrong, actually?" He asked as his happy mood diminished a little.

His colleague took a seat in one of the royal rooms, then replied, "I did some research in the Majestic Ice Kingdom... They say that this Overlord sucked out all hatred from the dungeons."

"That's impossible," Tuto laughed out loud.

He extended his hand for a cup, then poured wine for himself. As courtesy implied, he also left a cup for his colleague.

However, his friend didn't move an inch.

His lips just parted again, "They didn't lie to me. I checked their words a few times. It's probably the first low world for that Overlord. We should cooperate."

The last sentence utterly kicked Tuto off his game!

He stared at his colleague, "Cooperate? We?"

They had never cooperated, even once! That was because their powers allowed them to take the Overlord's benefits for themselves. For those powers to work, those dudes needed a few prerequisites done.

They were behind the sudden empire's movements, and they would use those powers for their own ambition!

After the dungeon disappeared in the Hard Steel Empire, it was clear that the Overlord came here.

It was Tuto's time, and he would face his colleagues should they plot against him or his prey!

"Yes, we should cooperate," His colleague replied with severe eyes and a stoic expression.

He didn't joke, he didn't lie, he didn't plot.

He was genuinely worried for his future!

"I don't want to get confined in this world. If we fail to get the Overlord, we won't leave this world. If the dungeons disappear thoroughly, we won't be able to learn more about Ravash," Tuto's friend added.

Tuto bit his lips, "If that guy is this unique, doesn't it mean he is like Ravash?" A glass of wine already shattered beneath Tuto's pressure.

That pressure stemmed from his fear of existence that was similar to Ravash.

"Can't we... contact others from the Medium World?" Tuto genuinely started fearing what was about to come.

His friend shook his head, "There's a weird magic circle surrounding this world... No one outside can find us, and we can't contact anyone either. This world is separated from others."

"How?!" Tuto howled in fear!

"My bet would be on those haughty High Spirits... Only their magic circles are that good, but why would anyone be even interested in this small world? You know... If High Spirits nurture a second Overlord, then we are... fucked," Tuto's friend replied with quivering lips.

Tuto trembled, "F-Fuck... I told those fools to attack the Majestic Ice Kingdom! They... They shouldn't have reached that kingdom, should they?"

"The Hard Steel Empire is the closest to them..." As those words sank into Tuto's heart, the silence ensued.

It was a deadly silence...

A silence implied they were already forced to go against the existence similar to Ravash.
