{1 year later}

Every day, I'm training with father and every month, the training is getting longer. I'm not complaining, but I want to see Ilis more often... She is working hard with her father too.

Each time my father shortened training, he ran somewhere else, I tried to follow him, but out of nowhere, my mother appeared and took me home to teach me.

Today is different. Since my father didn't appear on our daily training. I continued what we did every day. Balance, brandishing a sword, running and working out.

This one year didn't go to waste. Now, I can do 67 push-ups and nearly 100 sit-ups, not to mention squats. I manage to obtain 32 points in strength by helping the villagers around and training. It even made my father smile, which is very, very rare!

I started doing push-ups, but during the 32nd one, somebody distracted me.

"Ne~ ne~ What are you doing?" The voice behind my back asked. From the tone of voice, I immediately guessed that it was a small girl, but I couldn't remember that there was a small child in the village. That aside, who let her go away?

Turning, I saw a girl, half of my height. The first thought that crossed my mind was 'cute', but... but not as much as Ilis, of course! The girl tilted her head.

"Eto~ something happened?"

"No-nothing". She charmed me, but I will remain loyal to Ilis. "Ehem... What are you doing here alone?"

"Hur hur, I came to see my future husband~!"

Hmmm... wait! what?! "But I'm already engaged!"

"Arere~ everyone knows that you can have 2 wives”. She smiled. Oh, I forgot... I spaced out for a second, deep in my thoughts.

When I came back to my senses, she was already sitting on my legs with a bright smile.

"What are you doing!?"

"Husband and wife must be close, right~?" I can't say no to her, she's too cute...

"Eto~ feed me?" It surprised me.

"B-but how?" She smiled and showed me some meat.... where did she draw this out from!?

"*A~n*" What can I do to something this cute! I put some meat in her mouth and with a big smile, she ate it. We did this over and over until somebody called her out. She embraced me to say goodbye and ran away. I sat like this for nearly 15 minutes thinking 'What just happened?'

I was sitting in my house, eating a meal left by my mother. It was already cold, so I didn't enjoy it. I wonder where are my parents?

This story originates from a different website. Ensure the author gets the support they deserve by reading it there.

I left and went to the village center. At each step, sounds of fun became louder.

At the center of the village, everybody was having fun... but they forgot about me... It saddened me.

Several tables were spread with a lot of food. Any kind of meat from our forest could be seen. I saw my mother and started walking toward her.

I edged my way toward mom, as I could see new faces. I pulled my mother's skirt.

"Mother, what happened?"

"Oh! Azarrar! We had forgotten about you." Mother smiled with her bare teeth. It hurts mother... it hurts... "The Vim tribe visited us.”

"But why?"

"I didn't tell you, but to tighten ties with them, children from each tribe will be getting married-". I know where this is going... "So, being the only child in our village, you will be having a 2nd wife, isn't it great?” Every man dreams of having a harem. I did too. But what about Ilis?

"Oh and I almost forgot, Ilis was already informed about it. She has nothing against it. In fact, she is even happy about this since she will be having a new friend-” What a good bride! I must thank God later! "-and when Sila reaches adulthood, she will come to marry.” So her name is Sila.

You have been engaged with a 2nd wife before the age of 20! Luck +5.

Eh... I wonder why this only pops up now? I mean, it had already been decided. Maybe they are some kind of conditions for this 'engagement" status to show up?

Like, knowing the other person's name? When I was engaged to Ilis, I didn't understand what our mothers were talking about.

However, given the fact that I was the only male about her age, I kind of guessed the situation.

And as if to confirm my assumptions, a window showed up. So I guess some conditions are needed for the windows to pop up. But I could be wrong...

Being the first one to focus on the status and discover such a thing made the Creator interested in you.

Really? There weren't anybody who studied the status before? They don't even draw their attention on it... woah...

So what were they doing for thousands of years? Still, it's good for me. It made me smile. The Creator of the Status... it should be Eqphion, if the status is something that accompanied people since the beginning of the world.

Gaining the attention of the king of gods must be quite an achievement. Haha! What a good day, what a good day.

"Yes mom, I'm happy!" Mother only smiled and returned to her conversations.

Being happy, I started having fun too. I manage to find Ilis and dance with her, together with Sila. While dancing with both of them at once, applause and cheers could be heard. It's embarrassing...

I spent the rest of the day just like that.
