Author's Note
I don't like weak mc's but i also dislike guys who are just suddenly op sowhile edin is a pusillanimous right now eventually he'll grow out of it and his brother being op well i dont see anything wrong with that as *cough*even op characters can die*cough*
Also about him being childlike that's because he is a child and being dropped on your head at an early age tends to affect brain development .

Chapter 5 : Devil and the little lord's harem
---------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
My fifth birthday came and went.
My birthday present from my parents was a German shepherd puppy.
Although it was called differently here.
I had never had a dog. The only pets I had back in my old life were fish.
So I named him ECHO after a park from my old life.
After the incident with the escaped elephant my mother no longer allowed me to play in the village. So in the end I was confined in my home.
Luckily I was able to play with my little sister sue, Allison, Herbert and sometimes Lilith when she wasn't busy.
I also used some modern psychology to tame or rather domesticate the wild cat girl Allison who was all tsun and no dere.
When she did something I liked I offered a candy. When she did something I disliked she would receive nothing.
That’s right I used operant conditioning.
We would usually end up playing hide and seek But we could never manage to find sue. Sue was a quiet girl. Although she had grown attached to me and usually followed me everywhere she would always watch me from a distance. Sometimes I wouldn't notice if she was in the same room as me.
She was almost like a ninja or something.
Staying inside the house was comforting to me but not the others.
They wanted to get rid of their boredom. I too eventually grew bored in a house without internet or television.
Only Herbert and I could read but there were no books to read. The simple board games were also boring.
Then the door to the manor was opened and in came Sahir my father’s foreman and with him a little girl close to my age.
Then my father closed the door after coming in with them.
“Hey everyone this is sahir’s daughter divya” said my father
“Seems the village kids have isolated her so please be friends with her”
“Um why?” asks Herbert
“My daughter has certain aspirations a woman should not have.” says sahir
Don’t tell me she wants to play for the other team
“Sometimes I wish I was a boy” says divya while pouting
Um no way, was I right?
I’ve never met a woman who liked other woman but I have to keep an open mind. I SHALL NOT BE A BIGOT I declared in my heart.
“Whoa no way you like girls!” blurts out Herbert
“What no I like boys!” screams the girl
“Sorry for the misunderstanding but my daughter wants to be an elephant rider, although she has talent, it is against tradition for a woman to be an elephant tamer.” says her father sahir.
“Is that so?” I mutter
“Yes well sahir and I have business to attend to.” says my father as he and sahir left
Well after the introductions with divya we were all still bored.
“Divya what do you do for fun?”
“Well I usually play with the baby elephants.”
“Then let’s do that”
“but were not allowed to leave the house”
“So then we sneak out duh”
“But we need permission to play with the elephants”says divya
“Well our dad kinda owns everything so I’m sure a word from us and we’ll be able to play with these elephants.”
So we snuck out and played with these elephants. It was fun playing with these elephants. Then they started defecating so we left the cleanup to divya.
However after a few days of playing with elephants everyone except divya grew bored yet again.
Then one day my father arrived with a plump man I’d never seen before and behind them a little girl with short pink hair.
“Everybody I’d like you to meet Mr.Blanche a merchant who I will be discussing a certain thing with in my study so please play with his daughter Lucy while we adults talk in my study.”
My father and Mr.Blanche then entered my father study and promptly closed the door
“So um what’s with the pink hair.”asks Herbert
“Oh I’m half demon.”she says while smiling
In this world demons are not monsters. They look like people but they have exotic colored hair. It’s said that the neon colored hair is a side effect of their high mana powers.

“Well how about we play a game then” asks Lucy
“What type of game?”
As she takes three cups and a shell out from her bag
“It’s a betting game look theirs three cups ill place the shell under one of them then ill shuffle the cups if you can guess what cup has the shell then you double your money however if you get it wrong then the money is mine.”
This seems familiar
“I’ll give it a shot.” Says Herbert
“How much are you gonna bet?”
“A copper coin.”
“OK then here we go”
Lucy slowly shuffled the cups. Her movements were too easy to read
Herbert was easily able to win a first couple of games
“Ha this time I’ll bet my whole allowance!”
Then Lucy shuffled the cups at a speed that left afterimages
“um this one”
Herbert's choice was wrong
“No way that was all my money”
Eventually everybody except me had lost all their money. I know I've seen this somewhere before.
“My turn then”
I lost 2 copper coins
Damn it something about this feels wrong but what?
Wait a second.That’s it she’s not half demon shes full demon.
How diabolical this is a con game!
“ufufufufufu I know your secret Lucy”
“oh really”
“That’s right there is no shell under any of the cups”
An expression of surprise is on her her face as her father steps out
Then she starts crying uncontrollably
“UUUWWWAAA!!! Daddy Edin is being mean to me!”
Wait what!?
“but she was cheating us”
“that’s right father Edin’s right she tricked us”says Herbert
“Herbert was trying to force me to show him my *hiccup* panties.”
“waits that not true”
“Herbert to your room IMMEDIATELY!”
Herbert ran to his room while crying how he wasn't a lolicon
“But dad Herbert’s not lying” I say
“Right girls?” I ask lily and Allison
Lucy glares at them as if taunting them to talk
“I have no idea what you’re talking about Edin” says Allison
“That’s right we have to go do something” says Lilith while slowly walking away with Allison
You cowards. Wait I still have my trump card.Theirs no way dad won’t listen to his cute little daughter
“Dad sue can testify for me, right sue?”
Lucy glares at sue but sue amazingly doesn't back down
“Brother is right”
“But you can’t trust her she’ll agree with whatever her brother says she’s a total brocon!”argues Lucy
“That’s right “says sue
No Sue don’t agree with her!
Edin's father didn't want to lose a potential merchant establishing a store in his village. So although he knew Edin was not the type to do such things he had to pretend to punish him.
"Edin go to your room,"
“But dad “
"Just go plz!"
This girl is too cunning
I’ll definitely get you back for this
That night I came up with the first of many plans that would ultimately fail against the she devil
A few weeks later
Herbert was now 10 and he was leaving to study at a magic academy.
“Don’t get arrested”
“hahaha Lilith your as funny as always”
“No brother she’s right”
“you too Edin so harsh”
My brother pulls me aside
“Edin I wish you luck with your harem”
“What!”
“Worry not I'm not a lolicon so no NTR from me”
“That’s not,”
“Damn you Edin with your Bright gray eyes and dirty blonde hair you’ll definitely grow up and be the enemy of all men”
“I don’t have a harem,!”
“Well let’s go over the girls you hang out with”
“Theirs the older than you dog-eared Allison, her cat eared sister,the tomboy divya,our cute little sister who's not related by blood, and even that cunning devil”
“But I hate that devil of a girl and theirs no way she likes me”
“brother when a girl picks on you it means she likes you”
“N no no way”
“well I'm off Edin goodbye”
I didn't respond.
A harem huh.Well no use thinking over it, I’m just a kid after all.
