Should Have Let Me Die

Chapter 104: Violent, Oops, Violet

Instantly I was surrounded by my wives and Trem. The people had already made a three meter half circle around me, but this made them take another step back. 

At the same time a group for varied races of Beastfolk entered the area, there were about five families and a cloud of other women and men of various races. This was all too much, I looked at the mayor who looked like he shared my anxiety. He looked at me, but both our attentions were snapped forward as the voice you would hear out of a tavern owner, strong and robust, but definitely a woman's voice. 

"HEY! Does it look like any work is getting done around here? GET BACK TO WORK! We have crops to harvest tomorrow and half of you are supposed to be getting things ready! The other half have jobs or school! NOW PEOPLE!"

What the hell was that demonic deep voice she used to yell at people? That had to be the mayor's wife, too bad! Now that would make an interesting wife! I turned to look at the mayor, but he had his head in his hand groaning. That wasn't a, my wife's coming groaning noise, that was a, oh no, not this one again.

Regardless, everyone but the beastfolk left, out of everyone, they were the only ones that looked relaxed. That might have had something to do with my multicultural family crowded around me, but that reminded me that I was being rude. 

"Ah mayor, I haven't caught your name yet."

"Harkim Platz."

"Wait, you use your last name?"

"...Yes...is that wrong?"

"No, No, sorry. I am from another world and I guess I have always just been on a first name basis," I stuck my hand out to him to shake his hand.

"Hyde Kline, pleasure to meet you Harkim Platz."

He took my hand and shook it, but he had a lopsided grin.

"What now?"

"Hide climbs."

"Oh, you are so funny!"

But it was to late, everyone, including the Beastfolk were laughing now, even my wives who had just got here. Only Trem stood beside me silent, but one sideways glance made even him start laughing. Well, this was better than tension, a good laugh was nice, to bad I couldnt partake, being the butt and all, but I was saved by an adorable small person with purple hair.

"What are you all laughing about? We had work to do father, GO GET YOUR BOOKS DONE!"

Harkim's face went white as a ghost and disappeared, just gone, like he was never even there to begin with. I turned back to the mini loli who, I mus say was pretty stacked for barely coming above my waist, then again how old was she...no her father was terrified of her, so she had to be older. I kind of liked her spunk, she would make a good general, a battle wife! Plus she would make a good connection to the people right?

"Hey! Baldy!"

"Is this all your family does? Insult it's guests?"

"Who said you were a guest?"

"Ouch, you're quite the little firecracker, aren't you?"

"And it looks like you let some kids doodle on your arms and neck with horse paint!"

"Hey! Loli-pop, fuck you, I like my tattoos! God damn shrimpasuras!"

"What did you call me you tall fuck!"

Woah! That was the first time I had heard someone say that word since i got here. 

"Where did you learn that?"

But she was gone. What the actual fuck was going on here? I turned back to my wives and I already knew that they were waiting for me to go. 

"No advice?"

"Don't mention her height!"

I turned and ran in the direction Alex had pointed. Man she was fast, but how, the legs were so short? Was she like the road runner? Just spinning her legs? Maybe she was like...oof!

"You such an idiot! I said it because you did! What does it mean?I have never heard that curse before."

I wasn't paying attention and The purple haired midget hid on a double stacked barrel, with another one in front of her, and then dove and tackled me. Now we were on the ground and she was on my chest. I could almost see up her skirt, but she kicked my head for looking. Yup, a keeper.

"How about this, You marry me and I'll teach you every curse I know, how about that?"

"Tempting, but I won't marry a man that is useless. Would you help out with the harvest tomorrow? Sure but can my family help as well?"

"Your family?"

"Yes my thirteen wives and some of my other friends that have came with us!"

"Wait, aren't you some kind of noble? Thirteen wifes? Are you a King?"

"No! I am the ruler of Hope and soon the world, but I'm not a King."

"Then who are you?"

"Hyde Kline, the Great Master, According to my magic, but Hyde is fine. What about you?"

"Violet Platz."

"You're missing an N."

"What?"

"Nevermind, it's a pretty name and it matches your hair and eyes. It's beautiful, just like you."

"Shut it! So, you're the ruler of a country, then I can refuse your offer. I also can't ask you to work in the field with us peasants."

"Don't be a turd, of course I am coming to help, but I want to know a couple things about my wife-to-be. Like, to start out with, what kind of magic do you have?"

"You are going to have to be nice to me, rock head! I have a touch sensing ability to see inside things?"

"X-ray vision?"

"What is that?"

"Nevermind, so you can see through anything?"

"Just to the otherside about a hand span past."

"Hmmm? Well, Violent, Violet, sorry, I have the ability to make others strong with my magic. Would you like you to join me forever? I'm gathering an army to take on the world and change how the humans are acting. What do you say? Are you in? I you are, get the fuck of me and take my hand!"
