Following their awe-inspiring encounter with the destruction of the mountains, Alex and his harem basked in the lingering echoes of their own power. The resonance of their accomplishments had yet to fade when an unexpected presence disrupted the tranquility of their surroundings.
As if materializing out of thin air, a figure descended gracefully from the heavens. It was none other than the female goddess of the world, drawn to Alex's massive power level like a moth to a flame. Her divine aura enveloped her, radiating an otherworldly beauty and elegance.
With a voice that carried both authority and allure, the goddess spoke, her words imbued with a subtle charm. "Alex, I have come to offer you a proposition. Your power is unlike anything I have ever witnessed, and I find myself drawn to you. Marry me, and I shall grant you unimaginable blessings and eternal happiness."
The harem stood dumbfounded, their expressions a mix of surprise and incredulity. The idea of the goddess desiring Alex as her husband seemed unfathomable, yet the sincerity in her voice left no room for doubt.
Sophia, her fiery spirit ignited, stepped forward, her eyes ablaze with determination. "Goddess, while we appreciate your offer, Alex is still young and has yet to experience life fully. Marriage is a serious commitment, and we must consider the consequences."
Lucia, usually reserved, found her voice. "Indeed, goddess. Alex has a duty to fulfill here in Creatia. We fight against the tyranny of the demon lord, and his role in this battle is crucial. We cannot allow distractions to hinder our mission."

Hanna, the self-proclaimed daughter, stood by Alex's side, her eyes narrowing with protectiveness. "Oni-sama is too young to marry. He has a long journey ahead, and we shall stand by him. Your proposition goes against his best interests."
Alex, his youthful face scrunched up in contemplation, mustered the courage to address the goddess. "Goddess, I am honored by your attention, but I am not ready for marriage. There is still much for me to learn and accomplish. I am committed to my harem and to the cause we fight for."
The goddess's disappointment was palpable, but she masked it with a serene smile. "Very well, young one. If you find yourself in need, know that I am willing to assist you. I shall reside within your smartwatch, providing guidance and support whenever you require it."
Without waiting for a response, the goddess extended her hand, her ethereal energy merging with the smartwatch on Alex's wrist. In a flash of light, she vanished, leaving behind a faint presence lingering within the device.
The harem exchanged glances, their expressions a mix of curiosity and wariness. The goddess's offer had been rejected, but her presence within the smartwatch brought forth a new set of uncertainties.
Alex, adjusting to the weight of the goddess's energy within his watch, addressed his harem with a mixture of determination and caution. "We must proceed carefully. The goddess's intentions may not be as altruistic as they appear. We must use her presence to our advantage while guarding against potential manipulation."
Sophia nodded, her resolve unwavering. "Indeed, Alex. We must remain vigilant and united. Our journey is far from over, and the challenges ahead demand our full attention."
As they prepared to continue their quest, the harem felt a tingling sensation, a reminder of the goddess's presence within the smartwatch. Uncertainty loomed, but with their bonds strengthened and their hearts set on victory, they pressed forward.
