Legendary God of Harem In the Modern World

Chapter 12: You’re Married?!

"Oh..."

When she heard her brother's answer, Christa's face looked a little gloomy.

Seeing this, Ryan immediately added, "Ahh .. I mean, March. How about we get back together at that time? The atmosphere of the house is always lively when commemorating March 11th."

Hearing Ryan's promise, Christa finally put on a happy face. After all, March was only 4 months away and she also couldn't suddenly leave the base for a long time. This way, she could arrange her schedule so she could enjoy her time together with Ryan.

"Then, what can I do for you now?"

"So you see, I have some mysterious power in my body and it's been hard to control lately. As I recall, you have mastered grandfather's acupuncture technique, right? Can you help me to treat my body? I do have a cure for this problem but the supplies are running low and I still haven't had time to get them back." Ryan said everything straightforwardly without a cover.

"Okay I'll try, I'll check your pulse first." Christa replied.

...

After checking for Ryan for a while, Christa's face looked serious.

"Brother, can you explain why you have this kind of thing in your body?"

Unfortunately, Ryan couldn't answer it because he didn't even know why it happened. All he knew was that this mysterious power was extremely powerful. Seeing Ryan who just shook his head, Christa did not ask further.

"I haven't learned my acupuncture technique thoroughly, but to suppress your mysterious power I can help you. For now your strength may be fine but I suggest you don't use your power beyond its limits for the next 10 days. Otherwise, this wild power will explode and if I'm not by your side then you will.."

"Okay, it's okay. Ten days is easy. Anyway, Have I told you? I'm married so I won't be wandering the streets every day like I used to."

When the word married came out of Ryan's mouth, Christa's facial expression completely changed.

"What? You are married?"

"Yes, I got married a few days after I arrived in Crimea. But our marriage is quite unique." Ryan immediately explained how he got married.

When Christa heard that her brother was going to divorce after 3 months, she smiled broadly, "Brother, are you saying that you sold yourself for money?" Perhaps what her brother said was ridiculous, but Christa believed that her brother would never lie to her.

"It can't be helped? Your brother was very poor when he came home. At that time, I didn't have any means of communication or clothes. So what's wrong with selling my body for money?" Ryan explained in a sad tone that might make people feel sorry for him. But Christa didn't believe him. There must be a hidden agenda behind this.

"Okay, I trust you. But who is that woman? She really dared to pay you so dearly, is it the fat aunt who wallows in wealth?" Christa teased him.

"You're wrong! My wife is very beautiful like an angel. Maybe for more details you can ask Elizabeth." Ryan said, pointing at Elizabeth.

Ryan calling Elizabeth by her real name was actually a bit taboo because he was supposed to call her by the pseudonym that she used on the list of Gods. Martial artists had their own rules that said one should not use their real name and use pseudonyms to identify each other. For Ryan, he didn't want to waste his energy calling Elizabeth by her pseudonym because the woman had also known his real name.

"The woman came from the Avalerion company called Irina Hagrim." When she said this, Elizabeth still couldn't believe it.

When she saw this information for the first time, she was very surprised. Irina Hagrim was a famous woman throughout the city of Avalerion and she often rejected handsome men. And apparently, Irina actually married this perverted man in front of her.

"What!? You married Irina Hagrim?" Christa was also very surprised when she heard the woman's name.

"Hahaha how is it? You're surprised, right? Your brother has won a lot this time!" Ryan's words were a little disrespectful.

"Brother, don't you know Irina's reputation in this city? All the men in this city want to propose to Irina's heart for a long time. How could you even say that she paid you to marry her! Which shaman are you using?"

Christa really wanted to hit her brother, she was really angry. How could her brother say that he had sold his body for money and the one who bought him was the most influential female in this Avalerion city.

If there was such a thing as luck, her older brother probably had extraordinary luck. The pretty girl paid him to live with her and he would even receive the bountiful money when they divorced. What kind of fictional story did she just read?

"Don't be like that, your brother is trying to make money for us. Besides, Irina is also cold towards me. I already have you too, right? Didn't we promise to get married since childhood? When we return to the mountains do you want to formalize our relationship?" Ryan immediately replied to Christa with his own temptation.

Hearing the word "married" made Christa blush. It was true that they were not real siblings and they had agreed to get married since they were young. This had also been approved by the grandparents at home. Even so, Christa would still be embarrassed if this was brought up.

"Huh who wants to marry you? Besides, you're already married, I'll even be labeled a homewrecker, you know!" Christa said this with a sullen face.

Elizabeth looked at this with a little surprise. People with this cold and quiet nature could get jealous very easily and blushed so hard.

"Then what do you want me to do? You're telling me to marry you two? This brother of yours is not strong enough to do that. I don't want to make you two jealous of each other for my lack of affection. So it's better just to get married." Ryan replied.

.......

They talked for a long time as Christa treated Ryan. Ryan immediately felt his body getting better. In the absence of potion X, Ryan was always anxious about hidden forces lurking around him. As long as he had potion X, Ryan would not be afraid of anything.

Ryan thought of going back to the mountain so that his grandfather could treat it, but he still didn't have time to do it and he didn't want to rush home. He then invited Christa to live in his present house. Of course Christa rejected his offer. She felt that the situation would be awkward and after all it wasn't Ryan's house but Irina's. Their marriage would only last 3 months and it was a very fast time for her so there was no reason for Christa to want to be with Ryan.

Finally, the two adoptive siblings decided to go home. Christa still had time to hug her brother tightly on their way back.

It was 10 in the morning when Ryan returned home. The old maid Susan was seen cleaning the house, Irina was gone and, according to Susan's words, she rarely came home for lunch. So all day, Ryan would have to spend the entire day alone as there was nothing else he could do.

When he saw Susan sweeping the floor, Ryan always remembered the old maid's real identity. He knew that Susan was a strong swordswoman despite having a friendly face. Ryan thought that she must be a troublesome opponent if he had to face her in a battle.

"Ms. Susan I'm home!" Ryan did not forget to show his hospitality to the old maid.

"Wow, Ryan has come home, can I help you? Anyway, we will have lunch soon. Is there anything you want to eat? I can make you anything." She said with a smile.

"Oh, if you insist, I want grilled ribs. I've been craving it for a long time!" Ryan replied with an excited face.

"Okay, I understand. I'll cook it for the afternoon meal so be patient, kid."

"Great! Ms. Susan is the best! Then I'll rest in the room first. If there's anything just knock on my door." After finishing the small talk, Ryan went back to his room.

To be honest, this kind of 'no-life' was the life he wanted. For him, a relaxed life was the ideal life for him. He didn't have to worry about food, hot sun, monthly rent, even now he had a beautiful wife! His only regret was that his wife was not with him.

Even though they lived under one roof, they still had some distance between them and Ryan didn't know how he could erase the distance. However, his current self already had problems with potion X and his body, therefore he didn't want to bother too much with his relationship with Irina.

The X Potion was absolutely crucial to him. Without it, his life would really be in danger.
