Battle Harem of the Heavenly Sword

Chapter 7 The Battle Harem System



"Husband? Me? Why?"

Originally Hiro would be delighted by such a proposal. However, now that he knew that Artorius was Rhyne Fair Dominii's husband Hiro felt conflicted. The crown princess who sensed that Hiro misunderstood her, made a fist and smacked it on her other palm like a hammer.

"Oh! That's right you don't know about battle harems, no wonder you are acting that way. Let me explain."

Rhyne then stood up, faced Hiro, and placed her hand on her heart as she said. "Status, Battle Harem Section only" the same blue screen appeared in front of him, but it was way shorter than the ones he saw.

Hiro who saw the numbers slowly made sense of the info. Whether because he only focused on beating Artorius, or the other nuances of the explanation; He slowly started to grasp the info he saw in Rhyne's status screen.

'Wait... battle harem as in big-breasted Waifu harem? Then isn't Rhyne a reverse harem mc? That makes the Ikemen bastard one of the male leads?! Her dad is listed as her dominant! The fucker shafts his own daughter? This slut has over 300 people in her harem! FUCK!!'

The man felt his head hurt from the information overload, maybe he got it as the side effect of being thoroughly curb-stomped by the Ikemen bastard. Hiro tried to think of it objectively.

'If the Battle Harem system was created by the emperor to protect his wives, then his children would also be included. Logically being in a harem wouldn't automatically mean they are having sex. If they share stats and the emperor is the strongest in the kingdom, his children would be OP just from being in his harem. Okay, that makes sense. Relax, relax.'

Unknown to Hiro while he went through his internal breakdown and recovery, a variety of comical faces occurred in quick succession. The princess who grew amused didn't say anything to watch the show. She waited for the man to return to his senses before she continued, Rhyne giggled as she did so.

"Hehe, your facial warps are cute. It looked like a one-man play. Well, let me start over."

Rhyne then moved the screen beside her like a floating tablet and presented it to Hiro using her finger as a pointer.

"As you can see, it shows that I belong to the battle harem Starfall, the number beside it lists how many people belong to the group. This means that currently there are 374 people in my battle harem.

"The harem rank is a list updated by the system using a projected comparison of strength. Having the rank on my screen proves that I am the Dominant of Starfall. And that I am part of my father's battle harem Dominii Royalty. My father did this to give his family immense stats that would ensure our survival. He is a tad bit overprotective."

The princess who smiled and added commentary to her explanations looked happy and full of life when she spoke about her father. Hiro who never felt how it would be talking about family felt a little jealous. Rhyne then made a bitter face as she explained further.

"Unfortunately, my father is currently missing, otherwise this entire situation would have never happened. Without a leader, our country is in peril. The surrounding nations would eventually know my father is absent and will attack soon.

"By birthright, I am the oldest and should have been the next empress. Unfortunately, my brother the crown prince Dylan Lancea Dominii wishes to usurp the throne in my place. I wanted to just give it to him, but my other siblings told me not to. Dylan is cruel and a tyrant who abuses his power."

Hiro saw the crown princess bit her luscious lips and balled her hands into fists in indignation. How bad does a person have to be to make the kind princess make such a face? Yet feeling that the story had more to offer, Hiro remained silent.

"Eventually the entire royal family including my mothers was split into two factions. Some believed I was too naive and kind to manage the battle-tested Valorious empire. Others believed Dylan as king would invite too much cruelty. Thus, they decided that a duel between the two of us would decide who leads and who follows.

"As battle harems were part of a person's strength. The duel became a battle of harems. It tested power, influence, and ingenuity. My brother is a brilliant tactician on top of being the most powerful lancer the kingdom has ever seen.

"Many rallied to his cause. His battle harem Gae-Bolg sits third in the battle harem ranking; While I remain at sixth. While the rules state that the duel is not a death match, given how badly he wants to be king, I don't put it past Dylan to intentionally murder me and call it an accident."

The princess started shedding tears as she sobbed. "I am sorry, the thought that I have to kill my brother, whom I loved dearly is too saddening, please give me a moment to calm down."

Hiro, who saw new sides to Rhyne remained silent and waited for her to finish. After a few moments, Rhyne wiped her tears and continued.

"The battle harems are primarily an ability to share stats. Individuals who reached the limit would be able to share more while benefitting from getting stats they would not have been able to get otherwise.

"Each person has the possibility of becoming dominant. This is called the Dominant Rank, mine is ranked SS meaning only people who have the rank of SS and above may have a chance of dominating me. While I on the other hand can Dominate anyone on SS and below.

"A person's Dominant Rank is determined by birth, outlook, strength of will, and resistance to failure. This makes it entirely possible for nobles who have grown too complacent to have ranks around C while a driven common citizen may have a rank as high as A."
