Capítulo 2377: Meeting Marika's Aunt (2)

I met Kagura's sharp gaze without flinching. Her question wasn’t clearly a challenge or a test of confirmation that I was what she had read about.

She's confident this would be my stumbling block and I would fumble at defending my relationship with Marika.

Too bad. She's not the first who confronted me with this. Isn't there the eccentric old man who's way scarier than her?

I took a deep breath then assured Marika again with a smile before articulating my answer.

“You’re right, Kagura-san. There are other girls I care deeply about as much as I care for Marika. I won’t deny it, nor will I try to justify it as something conventional. It never will be not. But am I feeding them lies? I don't think so. If you ask Marika or any of those girls, there is one trait that I put more importance on. Honesty."

"Before any of them commit to me, I let them know what they're signing up for. And that's the same for Marika."
