Mushoku Tensei: Reincarnated as the weakest Sword God

I returned to the party room where my other wives were waiting, it was time to leave, but tomorrow I would return for my reward hehehe...

Romira and Ars were already asleep when I arrived, it was no surprise since they had eaten their fill, but on the other hand my wives were with worried faces.

"Where did Eris go?" Nina asked.

"...she went to talk to Rudeus, you can go back, I will wait for her" I murmured.

They all agreed and so Ellemoi escorted them out of the castle and took them by carriage to the mansion.

I stayed waiting in the party room for about half an hour.

It was already dark which was a great contrast to the festive atmosphere of a couple of hours ago.

"Gino? What are you doing here?" a female voice said behind me.

I turned back and it was Sylphiette and in her arms she was carrying a sleeping girl.

"I'm sorry, I'm waiting for my wife Eris" I said as I stood up from the chair.

"No, it's not a problem... she's Rudeus' ex-girlfriend, did you know that?" she asked in a hesitant tone.

"Yes, that's why I let her talk to him, they both separated on bad terms after all" I said.

"Yes... he was depressed for three years because of that" she said in a worried tone as she looked at the window.

"But the important thing is that he found a woman who truly loves him" I said with a smile.

"Yes, that's true... Rudy, he's my everything, oh! And this is my daughter Lucy, sorry for not introducing her but she's asleep" she said.

"I see... she looks like her father, how old is she?" I asked.

"She just turned four" she answered with a smile.

We stayed like that for a few moments and we both decided to walk to where our respective partners were.

They had both stayed in a nearby hallway so we walked there.

And so we arrived at the hallway where we had left them, Rudeus looked dismayed and Eris looked at the floor as if she was embarrassed, but after a few moments of silence Rudeus hugged Eris.

I could see out of the corner of my eye that Sylphiette began to puff out her cheeks in jealousy, but I just remained expectant.

So after a long while they both separated from the hug, Eris began to walk towards us and Sylphiette began to walk towards Rudeus.

Eris walked beside me without saying anything but our hands were intertwined as we walked through the dark corridors of the castle, but when we left it, Eris pulled me towards her and gave me a deep kiss on the lips that left me surprised.

But as always, she still doesn't know how to kiss well, so our teeth collided strongly, it was painful...

It took us about a minute like this, until Eris decided to end the kiss, she looked at me with teary eyes and totally blushed.

"And why was that?" I said while putting my hand on my mouth because of the pain.

"I can't kiss my husband?!" She asked with her arms crossed.

"I don't mean that, what did you talk about there?" I asked.

"...we fixed our misunderstanding, now we have our partners and children" she said with a smile.

I smiled at this while looking at her.

"I see, that's good and what will you do now? Are you still friends?" I asked.

"Yeah, I guess so" she said while taking my hand again and so we started walking back to the mansion.

That night Eris attacked me at night, apparently she was more excited than usual since she didn't let the others get close...

...

The next day I left early to go back to the castle, I was going to collect my reward hehehe...

Ellemoi took me to a large room guarded by two guards with golden armor, one was a huge guy about two and a half meters tall with an axe behind him and the other was a guy of average build, but he had a golden staff on his waist...

"Doga, let us in Gino is coming to see the princess" Ellemoi said.

"There's no proof" Doga replied dryly.

"You've got to be kidding me" the other guy next to him muttered and opened his side of the door for us.

I walked in and Ariel was drinking tea with Sylphiette.

"Good morning Gino, I see you're here for your reward huh?..." she muttered while winking at me seductively.

Sylphiette frowned and I just sighed.

"Yes, but I'm not interested in your body" I said.

"Haha, I know, Clene, give his reward to Mr. Gino" she said with a smile.

Clene immediately stood up from her chair and from a cupboard she took out a large bag that looked heavy due to the effort poor Clene was making.

"You didn't specify the amount of money you wanted, so I put in what I considered enough for your services" she said and Clene gave me the bag.

It was heavy, at least thirty kilos, I looked inside it a little and I could count at least 20 coins just on the surface.

"Thank you very much, your majesty, and have a prosperous reign" I said with a bow and thus I left the place.

...

Ariel walked me home and we said goodbye to her and then returned home. For that, we left the capital and on the outskirts I called Almanfi to go to Peragius Castle, in addition to transportation I wanted to talk to him.

"Miss Sylvaril, could you tell Lord Peragius that I want to talk to him please" I said.

"...of course, in a moment" she said and then started walking towards the hallway.

"Aren't you coming with us?" Ghislaine asked bewildered.

"In a moment, but something important has come up" I'll catch them later" I said with a smile.

The girls looked at each other, but then nodded and returned home through a teleportation circle.

After that I followed Almanfi to Peragius' throne room and went inside.

The guy was still sitting there on his throne with a bored expression on his face.

"Gino Britzs, what do you want?" he asked while looking at me with interest.

"Hello!" I said with a smile "...I don't know how to say it, but I came to make you a proposal that just occurred to me" I said.

Peragius raised an eyebrow as he looked at me.

"What kind?" he asked.

"It's about the Demon God Laplace..." I muttered. "I think I have an idea of ​​how to defeat him" I continued.

At this Peragius' eyes widened as he looked at me.

"...that's a very arrogant statement on your part, really you...no, What do you have in mind?" he asked.

"I think I have an idea of ​​how to break his seal ahead of time... and with our current strength the two of us would be enough to defeat him" I declared.

Peragius looked at me suspiciously, it seemed like he was analyzing me completely.

Perhaps if it were someone else he would have completely dismissed me, but no, I am the third world power after all.

"And how do you plan to do it?" he asked. "The seal can only be broken with the mana of Laplace or with someone with a similar amount of mana..." he muttered but then realized who he was referring to and started laughing.

"Hahahaha! I see! That could certainly work, but tell me one thing, why do you plan to do it?" he asked.

"Laplace will be reborn in eighty years according to Orsted, I don't want my descendants to have to bear the weight of this battle" I declared.

"Hmm, I see, okay I will help you" he said.

I bowed and returned home, now it was time to tell Orsted...

...

"...and that's my proposal, tell me what you think" I murmured.

A whole day had passed since my return from Asura and I had returned to Sharia to inform Orsted of my proposal.

"It's genuinely interesting, it's never occurred to me, but are you sure you want to do it?" He asked with a raised eyebrow.

"Yes, it is better to do it now than to leave the heavy work to my descendants, and we would also save ourselves the destruction of cities when he appears" I argued.

Orsted remained silent as he looked me up and down and narrowed his eyes.

"I honestly think it could work, it's just a matter of letting Rudeus know, you said he has as much mana as Laplace, right?, I think this is our only chance to finish him off once and for all, not to mention we'll get to Hitogami faster" I said.

At this Orsted looked up at me and narrowed his eyes, then put his hand on his chin and stared at me silently.

"I won't lie, your combat capabilities have far surpassed your versions from other loops, Now you are Now you even defeated the Fighting God... your proposal sounds too promising, but I still have my doubts, To defeat Laplace, Peragius, Alek Kallman and Urupen fought him in a battle to the death, and they were barely able to seal it, So tell me Gino Britzs, are you sure you can do it?" Orsted asked.

I looked at him seriously and nodded.

"Yes, and besides, didn't you say that you were saving your mana to fight Laplace?..." I murmured.

"Yes, I said it, but I also need mana to fight Hitogami" he replied.

"I see...then will you help me?" I muttered.

Orsted fell silent again and finally sighed.

"Yes, I will help you, but first I need to check your power" he said as he stood up from his chair

"My power?...what do you mean?" I muttered.

"I mean you will fight with me, you will fight with all your strength and based on your performance we will make a strategy" Orsted said

"f-fight against you?..." I complained "...you won't kill me right?"

"Why would I do that?, We are allies, right? Orsted said and began to go down to the basement of the cabin where the teleportation circles were.

""...where will we go?" I asked.

"To a meadow south of Asura, that's where I normally train Rudeus" he replied.

"I see..." I said as I looked at the sword on my hip, it was my father's sword, it had a blue blade and at the end it had a toothed edge.

I held on to the handle tightly as we descended the steps.

This will be difficult...
