What Do You Mean There Are Other Transmigrators In My Harem Fantasy?

Chapter 634: She Lost Everything

I gave a mental command to my Shadow Guards to call off the search.

I also got them to inform the rest of the girls that I have found Emilia and that we should rendezvous at the manor.

In the meantime, I spread my wings and took to the skies with Emilia still in my arms, figuring that with a fire like that, no one should be looking up anyway. And even if I was seen by someone, they shouldn't be thinking that I was carrying Emilia away from the ship.

I followed the road below until I found the manor, which wasn't really that hard anyway since the building itself stood out.

I dove down towards the ground before flaring my wings at the last minute, slowing my descent to touch down on the ground in front of the manor.

Making my way to the front door with Emilia in my arms, I wondered briefly how I should open the door when both my hands were occupied when it swung open on its own.

I was expecting it to be Mary behind the door but surprisingly, it was Mother who stood there.

"Ufufufu~ Welcome home my little one. Ara, ara? I see you've taken Mama's words to heart and brought back someone you are interested in~"

I blinked at her and it took me a moment to remember that Mother did tell me to bring back any slaves that caught my eye before she left.

I was about to tell her that it was Emilia that I was carrying in my arms before she giggled, "I'm joking, my little one. Now hurry and take your new harem member inside and let Mary take care of her~"

New harem member? What is Mother talking about? I don't have that relationship with Emilia.

I decided not to ask and simply carried the unconscious Nekomata into the manor, handing her over to Mary who was waiting right behind Mother.

The Trasif simply took her from me without a word before carrying her upstairs.

I turned to Mother, "Does Mommy know about what happened at the harbour?"

"Ara? Is my little one asking why the ship exploded like that?"

"Err... I was actually wondering if Mommy even knew about her ship exploding but yes?"

"Ufufufu~ I think it would be better if Emilia tells you about it herself, my little one~"

"Oh... Ok."

I guess it's better if I hear it from the person herself I guess.

Right then, the door opened again and everyone else burst into the main hall, the girls crowding around me while my Shadow Guards simply went back into my shadow.

"Are you alright, Mistress?" Katsuki asked.

"Hmm? Why wouldn't I be?"

"You went into the burning ship by yourself, Mistress. I was concerned that you might have burned yourself."

"What?! Are you alright, Aster?!" Lisa cried out, already fussing over me.

Delmare was also silently patting me to make sure I was fine with a very serious but cute look on her face.

Odeta let out a laugh, "Wahahaha! There's no way some small fire could hurt Sister Aster! She could have just blown all the fire away on her own!!"

Err... I don't think that fire could even be considered 'small' Odeta... Pretty much half of the ship was in flames you know? And did you forget how big The Float-- Ahem... I mean... How big Emilia's ship is.

"No?"

...

Let's just ignore everything that happened in the past few minutes ok?

I cleared my throat, "Ahem... So how are you? Do you feel fine? That was a pretty big fire I pulled you out from."

She hesitated for a moment before sighing, "I'm fine... At least physically I would say. Thank you for pulling me out of there, Aster. I'm pretty sure I would not even be alive if you weren't there yesterday."

"Well... We're friends right? Isn't it normal for me to save a friend?"

"Friends huh..."

She had a far off look in her eyes again before she sat down on the bed.

There was a minute of silence and I recognised that she was currently consolidating her thoughts so I stood at the side and waited patiently for her to speak again.

It took maybe about a minute or two before she spoke again.

"Aster... Just kill me... Or throw me away, I don't care anymore."

"What the heck? I waited here for you and that's the first rubbish you spilled out of your mouth?" I answered her without thinking.

She turned to me and I realised that there was no light in her eyes, a clear indication that she had given up.

I frowned, "What's wrong? Did your family do something again?"

She went back to looking at the ground, "I... Lost everything, Aster... Everything."

This sounds like it could be a long talk so I went to sit beside her, "What happened?"

She sniffed, "They... They knew... I don't know who talked or how they found out... But they knew that I knew... And they already planned ahead of time to deal with me..."

"Umm... So what about that explosion on the ship?"

She sucked in a breath, "I... Had prepared a farewell 'gift' for them. I got several explosives set up on the ship that I had intended to set them off on the day I would leave, which would have been tomorrow... They found out about my plans to leave so when I was about to warn you today, they gave everyone the order to subdue me."

I could see that her shoulders were shaking slightly but she continued, "They've already seized all my assets at that point without me knowing and I decided to just set the explosives off today and take them all down with me."

"That... Seems like a rather extreme answer to that... Couldn't you have fought your way out anyway? I know how strong you are."

"What's the point? They already took the most important thing to me... I might as well just die already."

"Eh? Most important thing?"

She nodded, "I... Before they came into the room, I was preparing to meet you... So I opened the safe in my room and... It was empty. They took it all... All my Creas... All gone!!"

She then started crying into her hands.

...

Ok... How do I deal with this?
