The law of Fiction: Harem in the fiction world

Yohan had no idea what he had expected the Saint’s office to be. His imagination run wild when he heard that it was the Apix of the first realm.

Maybe he had expected it to be a high-tech building with technology out of the world. Or, it could have even been shaped like a temple with various holy arts displayed all over the play.

Didn’t such important places have special architecture attached to them that made them stand out from their surroundings? But Yohan's current expectations were dashed as he looked at the building in front of him.

The complex looked huge but with sloping roofs and connected buildings. It was impressive for sure but nothing in its energy stood out to Yohan.

In the end, the complex was a normal one with nothing impressive about it. Has Zane not told Yohan about its importance, Yohan would have even missed this place in his check.

“Zane, are you sure that this is the place we are meant to check out? There seems to be nothing special about its energy.”

Yohan pointed out as he looked toward the building. No one had come out to greet them yet but that was what Yohan had planned to happen anyway. Both he and Zane had decided to check this place out before it was time to meet thier assigned representative.

Even Zane looked surprised while observing the building. There was no residual energy output that he could feel.

And if this was a disguise even the demon king could not look through, then Zane had no chance to see past it either. What he did do was check out the building’s defenses.

His hand was shocked as he tried to force his way in. The barrier surrounding the Saints’ headquarters was repelling Zane’s demonic energy. And he did not risk trying to breach it either.

“As I was told! The barrier will repel those who were not invited into the complex. We got lucky that we get the invite.”

Yohan nodded at Zane’s words, finally standing up and getting ready to go back for now. They needed to meet up with the driver the Saints’ had arranged for them to reach their residence.

“I don’t think we will get any answers while staying out here anyway. Besides, I am curious to know how they hid such a big energy source as the realm key.”

Yohan had an excited look on his face at the thought of finally getting his hands on the realm key he had often heard about.

A realm key was an object of immeasurable magic and power. It was what controlled the whole realm and wrote its rules. It was said that if you could control a realm key, you were equal to a god.

And the ones who held the realm keys in thier possessions were the Demon Kings or the Seraphima. They were the only ones capable of even touching those divine objects.

As for the keys that were held in the human realm? No one knew what they were being used for. Nor did anyone know who had control of them.

The only known rumor was about thier location and that no one had managed to control them so far.

Yohan gave the seemingly ordinary-looking complex one last look before he started to walk away from it. He would discover its secrets very soon and then he would also take possession of this realm.

///////////////////////////////////

The car that had been sent to pick up Yohan and Zane fast approached the place where they had been waiting for it. The driver had been hypnotized to make him believe that both Yohan and Zane were sitting behind him.

The driver continued to drive the car, unaware that he had no one in the back seat. The unaware driver was the first key to thier plan.

“Time for us to go back where we are supposed to be.”

Zane whispered those words to Yohan before he jumped down in front of the car. The driver did not slow down even after seeing something so out of the ordinary.

Any other human would have yelled in surprise or even fumbled his driving in this situation but this driver did not do that. And it was all because he was being controlled by Zane.

The car stopped only seconds before it hit Zane and he easily went around and opened the door for Yohan to enter. He even gave a mocking bow like most butlers used to give in ancient times when Yohan made his way toward his seat.

“Master Yohan, please enter the car and have a comfortable ride ahead.”

“Stop with the unnecessary theatrics, Zane. You can have your fill of acting once we reach the Saints’ base.”

Zane gave a sheepish smile as he straightened his back. He could tell that Yohan was getting irritated now. So it was time to tone it down.

The driver did not even blink his eyes as both Yohan and Zane entered the car. The driver was looking straight out into the empty road and he took a wheezing breath when Zane coughed from the front seat.

“W-What? Why did I stop here? We have not reached the main office, right?”

The driver sounded confused and for legit reasons. The magic Yohan had used on him would be making the man dizzy and not able to recall what had happened up until now.

“Hey driver, are you alright? Your complexion looks even paler than before. You should go and rest once you drop us off.”

“Y-Yeah, you are right. I should go to sleep once I drop you both off.”

Zane gave the driver a soft smile full of reassurance. The driver deserved this much because he would be killed off as soon as he was found to be alone.

That was the instructions that Yohan had given to Mimi and Emilia. The two demons would get that job done for them. And they had been chosen precisely because they were much more powerful than any human they could come across.

This driver would be silenced and no power in this world could prevent this from happening.

The driver finally pulled into the driveway of the Saints’ office. Yohan could make our familiar faces from the car.

Both John and Karen were the ones who led the party. Johna had an annoyed expression on his face while Karen’s expression was muted. It made her difficult o read for Yohan but he was certain of one thing.

Karen was planning something and it involved getting Yohan to her base.

Karen’s bored expression suddenly turned to one of interest as soon as she noticed the car. A normal human would not have been able to spot that change but Yohan did. And so did Zane.

The car finally stopped and Karen almost ran in front of the car in excitement. John ran after her with a startled expression, not being able to tell why Karen had made a fast move like this.

“Welcome to our main branch, Master Strout. We have been awaiting your arrival for a long time now.”

Karen’s grin covered the whole of her face. It could not be said to be normal and Yohan finally stepped in front of her.

Karen took Yohan’s hand and brought it up to her lips for a kiss. John opened his mouth to say something when Karen’s glare made him quiet down.

She seemed to have this place under her control, seeing as how no one came out to stop her or to say anything about her actions. To conquer this place, Yohan likely needed to conquer Karen.

“It is our pleasure to have received your invite, Lady Karen. I hope we can have a fruitful partnership with The Saints in the future.”

Zane took a step forward, forcing Karen to take a step back. There was a small stare-off between Zane and Karen which was making everyone except Yohan nervous.

Yohan’s fingers were even twitching and his smile was faltering faster than Yohan could keep up with. There was a tension in the air that made everyone hold thier breaths.

And finally, it was Zane who backed down first. Karen had a satisfied expression on her face once she noticed that she had won a big fight.

What she did not notice but Yohan did was that Zane had allowed Karen to win purposely. He had not wanted to alienate Karen since her permission would be needed to get to the key room.

“Master Karen, we should invite our guests inside. We are making them uncomfortable by not inviting them to come in.”

Another member of the Saints whispered this directly into Karen’s ear and she instantly changed her tone.

“Ah, yes. I’m sorry for being such a big airhead. Please enter so that we can start discussing our future negotiation.”

For the first time since Yohan had known John, doubt, and fear mixed on his face. He looked at Yohan with eyes filled with pity and it seemed like he wanted to say something to him.

But then it all faded away as soon as he noticed Karen’s eyes on him. He turned his back to Yohan and Zane, pretending as if he could not see anyone else.

They would need to corner John and get him to speak about what was going on now.
