Rudy had teleported back to his post at the water park and continued doing his job.
Meanwhile, in the meeting room.
"I think we are done here, right?" Rias asked as she gazed at everyone's faces and turned to Janet in the end.
"No, we are not. I don't understand why you all are defending him. This was supposed to be a debate, but I am the only one in the opposition.
This is not fair. It should be one verses one, or we should be equally divided."
Reina raised her hand and said, "Alice and I haven't even said a word yet."
"You two are head over heels for him even before he revealed his harem plan to you two," Janet remarked.
"She has got a point," Ruby quipped in.
"Ruby…" Maria pulled Ruby's sleeve and glared at her.
Ruby pulled her hand to the other side and stood up before saying, "Janet has a point. We should be equally numbered or it wouldn't be fair."
"Normally, if the opposition has a lower number, it just mean they are in the wrong," Niti declared. "I am from the vampire world where monarchy reigns, but there are always those who oppose, so I know what to expect from such useless practices."
"I will join team Janet," Ruby announced.
"…!" Maria was shocked, but wasn't surprised to hear that.
Ruby was just as concerned as Janet and even though she was fond of Rudy, she wouldn't have started a relationship with him if he didn't have a harem.
If Maria was Rudy's only lover, she would have suppressed her feelings for him. But since he already had a harem, she was okay with being a member.
Janet had appeared as a saviour for Ruby. However, she had no plans to leave Rudy's harem, even if Janet had won the debate.
Angelica, Lilim, Alice, Maria, Rize, Reina, Rias, Niti, Ruby, and Janet. They were in Rudy's favor; not for Rudy, but for themselves.
"I will join Janet for the sake of this debate," Rize nodded.
"Okay, so… Janet, Ruby, and Rize in the opposition party. And we have… Rias, Niti, Maria, Lilim, Alice, Reina, Angelica in—"
"Make it equally numbered," Janet demanded.
"Is there anyone willing to join Janet's party?" Rias asked around.
"I will join, but only for the sake of the debate."
A girl, who none of the harem member had expected to speak against harem… spoke.
It was Angelica, the girl who convinced Rudy to have a harem.
"Why are you suddenly against the harem?" Rias raised her brow and asked with a judging look on her face.
"I am not. But I think I am an expert on this topic since I have watched so many animes with harem genre. I will list the demerits of harem— but know that I am not against the harem."
"We are still not equally numbered."
"I will stay out of this," Reina informed them.
"I will do the same." Alice distanced herself from the group and sat with Reina.
"Now we are equal. It's Four verses Four."
"Let us start—"
DING!
Janet was interrupted by a phone notification sound.
"Whose phone was it? I believe everyone was asked to keep their phone on silent."
"It's Rudy's phone," Reina answered and showed his phone to the girls.
"Why is his phone here?"
"He usually leaves it with me when he is here. Currently, he is on the lifeguard's duty, so it's not ideal to carry a phone considering he needs to jump into the pool often."
"See? He trusts her so much that he left his phone with Reina," Rias made a good point and started the debate.
"I don't think there is anything great about that. The boys usually don't leave their phones with their girlfriends is because they don't want them to see who they are t're talking with.
It is also for privacy reasons, but the cheaters often use that as an excuse. While Rudy doesn't need to hide that because he can technically openly cheat."
Janet responded with a strong remark.
"That's true," Rias nodded.
"Why are you agreeing with her?!" Maria hissed at Rias.
"Because her point is valid. Rudy could bring a new girl to the pool house, or the castle and introduce her as a new harem member."
"We are not considering the main point here," Lilim broke her silence.
"And that is?"
"He doesn't need to hide anything from us. Nor he needs to clarify our misunderstanding. He can do whatever he wants and we can't do anything. He is always thoughtful of us and makes sure we are content and at ease.
Don't forget, he is the Lord and we are the members of the Lord's harem. That flex is enough to burn the women of all the worlds with jealousy. They would kill their fathers, mothers, brothers, sisters, sons, daughters, husbands, friends, and relatives… just to have sex with Rudy.
You have no idea how powerful he is. And the fact that he cares about us is enough reason to suffice and conclude this debate."
Lilim's point made the entire room silent.
"Your point has a major flaw, Lilim," Janet asserted. "I do not and will not be able to grasp the concept of the Lord. It's out of human comprehension. But as you said, the women would do anything to have sex with Rudy.
ƥαṇdα- ηθνε|·ƈθm Is it real love, or are they just seeking fame and power?
Did you join his harem because he is the Lord, or because you loved him? It's just like… a rich man can have multiple mistresses because he is rich.
And the girls wouldn't mind that because they get access to unlimited money. So do they love him for what he is, or is it just the power of the money?"
"I was in love with him before I found out he was the Lord," Rias responded.
"Same," Niti seconded.
"Same for me." - Lilim.
Humans are privileged in this situation because they don't know who the Lord is, so it's unlikely that they joined his harem due to his title.
In the end, we joined his harem because of our love for him and no matter how many girls he brings in, it doesn't bother us.
Janet smiled and said, "Thank you. That's what I wanted to hear. I now rest my case."
"Welcome to the Harem."
