Chapter 235: Who are you?

Name:Harem Reborn Author:Magic_
I finished at the desk and then rejoined the girls as we walked out of the hotel. The moment we walked around the corner, we were surrounded by black SUV's and men with guns poured out. My Dragons Claws were already forming, but there were just too many of them, still, I wasn't completely out of options…

"Wait! Men, guns down!"

A tall man that looked almost identical to Branson walked up to me with his hand's op and with no weapon. I drop the claws and let them absorb back into me. The man wore a black suit but not sunglasses like the others. 

"Sorry about all this, the boss just wants to talk to you, ya know? By the way, names Frances, and if you just come with us the mayor will meet with you and save you from tearing up his city anymore. Look, we even brought you a limo to fit you like a group in one car, come on bro, you know Branson, he doesn't like what I do, but it is what it is. So, do me the world's biggest and just come for a talk?"

"I guess being asked to come feels better than at gunpoint. Fine, we planned on heading there anyway, so a free ride doesn't sound bad. Skipping the towers will just be the cream filling."

I watched all the girls, but Stephanie stayed the closest to me shaking a bit. There wasn't a lot I could do other than summoning a MAS, but that would take time, something I was short on, but at the same time, this is what we wanted. I took Stephanie and Trinity's hands to help them into the car and then each girl after that until everyone was inside, then I joined them.

The trip to the towers was quiet and very short, but we entered a parking garage under the building, and then pulled up to an elevator. The place was all concrete and we all got out and headed to the elevator doors, the only thing to break from the white-grey walls, ceiling, and floors. Frances had got in the back and sat beside me, but he hadn't spoken the entire time.

Now, we were in the elevator, but only Frances was in here with us. Either he was a lot more thought than his brother or there was something I didn't know about, like a feature to stop us from escaping. Not that it mattered, the trip was sort and we were walking out into...a beach?

Seagulls cried, and I could smell the salty sea, and hear and see the waves crashing up onto the beach in front of me. There was a man standing alone, and Frances went over to talk to him. They were more than out of earshot, and I turned to the girls.

"So can you eight handle Frances? There is something weird about these things over there, it doesn't seem real like it's a robot or something, I don't know why I can sense the wrongness of the thing, but I will deal with him."

"We will deal with Frances, you figure out the other one, but be careful!" Grace told me.

'TDM, do you know any tricks?'

'What do you mean?' -TDM.

'I don't know, something to defeat the undefeatable?'

'What is undefeatable?' -TDM.

"That guy over there.'

I pointed a dragon claw at the man.

'What the one guy in a black suit?' -TDM.

'No the man in white.'

'Human, are you okay? There is only one person there.' -TDM.

Interesting, I started to walk forward and Frances left him and went back to where the girls were but gave me a wide path. Yes, walk around, but the girls would let you know about how they felt about plans getting interrupted! I continued my walk until I walked through the man whose back was turned to me. 

"Hello, Dave."

I turned after walking through the projection, and there was a man's face that I had seen a couple times, and I was a bit confused. Mr. Datum was standing in the white suit, smiling at me. Now, this was beyond weird, Dansei, your input would be greatly appreciated right now. One of your alter egos is here.

'Yes, I can see that, so this is where the other part of him was. Hold on, I can wipe the smile off his face, just give me...yeah there. This guy worked with Reginold to build Second Life, and he designed the game with the flaw in it. Reginold was the one that approved it even after I told him about it.' Dansei.

'You knew Reginold?'

'All of us did, we worked for him, well except for Gra, he's not like any of us. There are things he did to MainFrame that scrambled us, and we can only reveal things the very moment before it's too late or if you ask the right questions. This time, I was able to push past the blocks and I won't be quiet anymore...end him, not like Irellia, end him so he doesn't come back. I don't think I asked for very much other than for you to do what you always were meant to, so do me this one favor and make sure he can't keep hurting people.' -Dansei.

I read you loud and clear, and no, I don't mind, if this is the person that really started this all, then I would remove him from existence. I reached to the side and grabbed the Longinus Spear, and Mr. Datum just smiled. That is, until the spear touched him, and tore through his body like paper, but the paper was absorbed in the spear.

I let the spear go and then I began to turn, but the world stopped, and they started to pull apart around us. I rushed to the girl, but they were all okay, then suddenly a screen popped up in my HUD

[Special Win Condition] Met!

[Special prize] Dual Powers!

YOU ARE NOW BEING TRANSPORTED TO THE HALL OF WISHES.

Well, it was over, and I was more than happy to be leaving this place. I hoped I never had to come back, sure there were a lot of great parts, but that was only because I had the girls with me. If I was alone, then, I don't think I could have made it through some of the parts.

The girls were already gone and then I was the only one left, just waiting to be shot into the sky.

'Dave, I need to talk to you about the next game.' -Dansei.

'Sure, what's the deal?'

'So, before I get into that, let's go over some things since I was able to snap my block. First, there are one hundred and thirty-six girls trapped floating around in the game world, and between the five of you, you have collected sixty-eight, which is good, but you start to run out of room, but this next game will help with that. This round you are going to have to find the person that will help you build the Spark Storage, and then you need to start saving girls like it's going out of style, none of the other Harem Leaders were able to do this, and it's not going to be easy.' Dansei.

'I don't think any of the games were easy, but I will do what you need me to, I got a special boost for the next game!'

'You will need it. Take your time and build yourself a good and strong avatar. You will get that option, so take your time, you're in limbo there. Then, once you are ready to go, you will be dropped into city A and will start fighting immediately. The level is non-stop and you will have to find places to sleep. Think of this as a superhero survival game, Save the girls, and no you don't have to fuck every one of them, but I won't stop you If you try! These girls will not be a part of your Harem, but they are still important girls, everyone one of them are. Good luck, The girls that are a part of your harem will decide who will be going with you into the last two games before you can finally join the others to save the Zodiac worlds.' -Dansie.

Then the beam of light took me up to the Hall of Wishes, where I found my girls waiting, even Stephanie, Delilah, and….WAIFU?! I rushed over and scooped up Kadita into my arms, kissing her all over her neck, making her laugh out loud and giggle. Then I gave her a really long kiss, and held her tight for a moment, before letting her go.

Next, I turned to Delilah, and pulled her in close, locking our lips together. I didn't want to let go, and I didn't want to say goodbye to them for another lifetime. I was surprised Iona never showed up to this game, but there were a lot of girls still left to save, and that was going to my job next game, saving the rest of the girls so we can win for real this time. I really hope I didn't think that last time.

I turned around and smiled up at the glowing angel called Mom. I knew the girls would already be gone, and I would see them again, but now, Mom and I need to have a serious talk about what was going on. Too many things have been left unanswered and it was time for everyone to come clean and stop hiding things from me.

"Okay, Mom, Who are you?"
