Reunion with Dearly Beloved
"Why is this happening and after I got the Job Change too just when I thought I finally became super OP and started my OP life the one skill needed to beat Demon King turned out to be fusion and it even decides the gender by majority this is too much it's way too much is this my punishment for wanting to build a harem but man I can't believe it how is the cutest girl I've ever laid my eyes on is me myself in this form I can't with this bottomless sense of helplessness..."
"...Pull yourself together already..."
Hero-kun is crouching in the corner of the room while muttering like she's hexing someone. No, Hero-chan?
Don't sit on the floor with a skirt, you. It's visible.
"I mean what's the deal with these frilly clothes anyway? Where'd all my equipment gone to!?"
"Ah, apparently those clothes are made from your equipment. That dress has got the combined stats of three people worth of equipment, it might very well be the sturdiest armor in the whole world, good for you."
"It's not! There's nothing good about thiiiiis!"
Hero-chan tried her best tearing her cutesy and super frilly dress while screaming her lungs out with her cute face. Is she planning to bare it all here or what.
But the dress is tremendously sturdy despite its appearance, she gave up and sat down.
"Haa, haa... Dammit, that goddess looked like the serious type at a glance but I bet she's having the time of her life... She decided my created character on her own too..."
"You wouldn't have turned into a girl if your party was mainly men... Heck, as far as I'm aware you're the only hero who's ever made an attempt to build a harem."
"So all those past heroes were herbivores..."
"Or maybe they only had eyes on one woman."
Spada (geezer) murmured someone's name too when he left.
...Perhaps he wasn't trying to reincarnate back to Parallecia to gain advantages with his knowledge, experience and stuff, but it was just so he could...
If so, it's such an absurd, such a modest, such an innocent wish with such a low chance of success.
And the world getting destroyed being the end result is just the creme on top.
"But I won't give up. I will keep striving for a lovey dovey life surrounded by girls. To that end, this disgrace is nothing I can't... Gehwa...!!"
Midway of Hero-chan's declaration of lust, she vomited blood from the mental damage. You okay there, your HP is decreasing.
...This is the current generation hero. A carnivore inside, despite the cute exterior. I respect that in a sense.
"Were you like that in Japan too, Neora-kun? Were you someone who played around with women every day? Normie."
"No uh, I actually could count the times I talked with girls with one hand. My family consisted of mostly men, and I went to all boy schools."
"Is this a backlash from that, maybe you're starving for any opportunity to get closer to girls?"
"Might be. Also, most isekai in light novels turn into harem with lots of flirting. I wanted to be in one, I think."
Ah, yup. I think like around half of those work turn into harem in the end.
Well, a lot also feature monogamy though.
"...Sorry to say, but that motive is the worst."
"Yeah I don't disagree... It's now sunk to me just how shallow I was being."
"Like you never imagined having to go out with multiple girls would be so hard?"
"It's not that... Neither Levia or Olivie is a 'member of harem', no they're each a woman on their own right. It's not right for me to treat them as I please while ignoring their feelings."
Hero-chan put more weight into her words with crossed arms.
...Why is this girl acting so serious while talking about harem anyway.
"The more I stayed with them, the more I realized that it's not about making my harem larger. I gotta face each and every one of them with my all."
"O, ou?"
"That's why I've decided to devote my all to the two girls that will join my party as well. Q.E.D."
"What did you demonstrate about even. What's your point anyway..."
She seemed satisfied with herself after making that passionate speech about 'harem' as she put on this refreshed look on her face. It's kinda irritating me.
...Well whatever. Now that she's back on her feet, I'll go and see the girls.
"Ah, by the way, of course I'd welcome Alma and Reina with wide open arms even now--"
"I'mma beat you to a pulp."
"Byaaaaaa!!? I'm just joking! It's a joke, I swear! Sorry, forgive me!!"
"Good... Oh right, so about the rest of the plan--"

~~~~~~~~~~~~Almatina's POV~~~~~~~~~~~
"We shall now assign unit divisions for the third continent recapture mission. Each party will join a unit, representatives are to respond on call."
A strict looking long purple haired woman presides over the program.
We're currently at the site where the royal castle of Continent 4 was in order to form the force that will fight and drive away the demons who have a near complete control over Continent 3.
Strong adventurers, mercenaries and even assassin guild's members are here.
The call was made in a hurry yet we got a lot of people coming.
Though it's mainly thanks to them opening up teleportation magic circles placed all over the continent that connect straight to the royal capital, usable only during emergency times, and the promise of handsome rewards at the end of this battle after Demon King's defeat.
Everybody is fed up with the rampant destruction caused by demons all over. Rather than keeping the status quo, they might as well go out trying to make it better.
Besides, the kings on other continents might see the same fate as this continent's king if we don't do something quick.
In fact, Demon King showed up on Continent 5 just the other day, not only the king almost lost his life, even dad and mom were in grave danger.
Nobody died in the end but Demon King took away the Black Dragon.
...Wonder if we're going to fight that dragon one day.
"『Stairway to Heaven』, 『Heavenly Dragon』, 『Raunakwes』 will be with Unit 2. Next up, 『Dream Bridge』 and 『Heaven』, and also... 『Yes Muscle』? are with Unit 3--"
More adventurer parties are being called.
...Our leader is not here right now, what should we do.
"Next up, 『War Rose』, 『Colorful Flowers』, and 『Tomorrow of Hope』, I see they're all woman-only parties. Then you all will go with Unit 4. This unit is comprised of only women as well. It should make things easy for you."
"No, our leader is a man, you know?"
"Hm? And where is this leader now."
"He's out on a minor business right now. He should be back soon, but not now."
"...He must have gotten scared and run away with his tail between his legs."
"No. He has his own circumstances."
"Considering your levels, I imagine this man must have been leeching on you, am I wrong? You have powerful Skills such as 'Magic Sword' and 'Ninjutsu' after all. Could he have been exploiting you for his own gain?"
"Don't talk like you know! Kajikawa-san isn't like that at all!"
『Pipi!』
...This person thinks highly of us but gives off the impression she looks down on men.
She's free to hate men all she wants, but please don't mix that up with your job.
Seemingly unable to let it pass, a male commander of another unit with blond long wavy hair interjected.
I feel like I've seen him before, but where...?
"Whoa there, Commander Vijikaranna. You're gonna land yourself in hot water with those careless remarks."
"Jangrajima, this has nothing to do with you. Back off."
"Oh you see, I met these girls before. I also saw their leader back then, guy's strength was the real deal for sure. I don't believe he's the type that exploits girls."
"So what, it doesn't change the fact that he's absent while these girls are here. Forget about that coward."
"Hmm, even if this 'Coward' might very well be the key person in this operation? At any rate, we can't have that leader be the sole man in a unit composed of only women, can we. I'll have them join my unit."
"Denied. Even if he were here, he would only become a hindrance without proper strength to back up. Leave that man out we'll take these girls with us."
"...Aren't you bringing in your personal feelings here? Do something about that androphobia already."
"Shut up. Girls, just come with us, it's not a bad thing for you."
She's now trying to half coerce us by pulling my arm.
...Please don't enforce your opinion on other without even making an attempt to listen to other.
I brushed off her hand and just when I was about to protest back--
"Ah, hello. I'm sorry for running late."
I heard someone apologizing nonchalantly.
A familiar gentle voice of a man that brings me a sense of relief just by listening.
The voice of my dearly beloved I have been waiting to hear all this time.
"What the, who are you. When did you get there...?"
"I'm Kajikawa Hikaru, leader of 'Tomorrow of Hope'. I had to step away for a bit due to some minor inconveniences. I apologize for any trouble I may have caused."
"Ah, Ka-Kajikawa, san...!"
『Pipi...!』
"Hey I'm back, sorry for being so late--"
I was hugging Hikaru before I knew what I was doing.
I buried my face in his chest to hide my crying face and focused my all into feeling Hikaru's warmth.
It's warm. He's, really here.
"Hika, ru, Hikaru, Hikaru...!!"
"...Alma, sorry for not being around for so long. I won't go anywhere again, don't worry."
His apologetic voice and the feeling of my head being patted are all so dear to me.
...I'm glad, he's fine. I'm so glad, he's finally, back...
"Is this man, their leader?"
"Sure is~... What, you don't believe it?"
"...I will have his strength tested once we are done with unit allotment later."
"What for~? Heck, don't you feel sorry tearing them apart when they're that close? Oh, I get it, you're jealous cause you still don't got one even now guhwa!"
"Shut up!"
I heard someone getting punched and a groan while my face was still buried in his chest, but I don't care.
I want this moment to last even a second longer.
"Woooooooo!? Who's that super beautiful girl!?"
"Her forelock and hair on her back got different colors yet they mix so well together... And what a captivating unbalanced proportion...!!"
"G, goddess...! A goddess is upon us...!!"
"Who you callin' a goddess! I'm a man dangit!!"
"No uh, you can't seriously say that with those tits."
"Please go out with me with marriage in mind!"
"Shut uuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuup!! I forgot to undo the fusion darniiiiiiit!"
...I don't care about that kinda familiar sounding voice of a girl too.
Um okay, maybe just a little bit...
