Electronic Version Special Story: Marriage
I want to marry you three.
With these words, Trao pulls out three garnet rings.
This was the newly built main office of the Trao Trading Company, which also served as Trao’s residence.
Rio and the others thought that the living space alone was too large for the four of them to live together, but they had never imagined that they intended to take all three of them as their wives. Well, if you think of it as a house for three families, it might be just the right size.
While thinking about this, Rio, Lilith, and Dominic had mixed feelings.
Basically, all three of them do not dislike Trao. They have known each other since they were young and had done some dangerous work together. Above all, they have fought together for the fate of the world. It was impossible for them to have bad feelings toward each other.
Rio was the most favorable to Trao, and he was willing to accept the proposal. However, she had not been able to respond to his proposal because she felt that it would be unrealistic to propose to all three of them at the same time.
Lilith had a longing for love, so she did not like this situation. It is probably one of the worst proposal stories I know. Even a king would be a little more careful when he seduces his concubines. Three men at once is an act that only the most beautiful man could do, and of course, Trao is far from a handsome man.
Dominic had something completely different in mind. He had never been interested in love, so he had never even thought of getting married. In a sense, it is ideal for all three of them to be married to the same man, since they had always wanted to be with Rio and Lilith. However, considering the other two, I felt as if I were a stranger, that such a proposal would be a bad idea.
“…… Well, how about it? No? ”
In front of Rio and the others, who were silent, Trao looked at them with a sad, abandoned-dog look in his eyes, as if he was worried about them.
For Trao, he thought he had established the fact that he had built a house where the three families could live, but of course, he did not understand that this idea itself was far from the common sense of the world.
Rio and his friends, on the other hand, could see right through Trao’s thinking.
“First of all, may we have a discussion among the three of us? ”
Rio suggested, and told Trao to leave the room.
Trao looked frightened and staggered out as he was told.
“So, what do you think?
“So, what do you think? ”
Rio asked them, looking at the door through which Trao had gone.
“It’s the worst, isn’t it? ”
Lilith spat.
“ A marriage proposal is for a woman at a more appropriate time and place,” she said. Proposing to three women in the chamber of commerce, after lunch, must be the worst proposal in history! ”
Lilith, who had dreamed of love, was chagrined.
“I know, right?”
Dominique agreed. However, he agreed with the prediction that Lilith would be angry like that, but he was not upset about the proposal.
“So you’re going to refuse? ”
Rio said to Lilith.
“ …… What are you going to do, Rio? ”
Lilith replied to the question with a question, since she felt it would be different to say no.
“I’ve been thinking that if I were to get married, it would be to my senpai, so I’m willing to accept, but I didn’t expect all three of you to propose to me at the same time, so I have mixed feelings about it. It’s hard to say [yes] honestly.”
Rio’s expression was discontented.
“What about you, Domi? ”
Lilith asked Dominic.
“I’m okay with it, if you and Rio are okay with it. I was hoping that the three of us would be together forever, so it’s really up to the two of us, right? ”
Dominic’s attitude was casual.
“What? So it’s just me now? ”
Rio is OK, Dominic leaves it to others, and the rest is up to Lilith.
“Ugh, I don’t really dislike it that much, but I just don’t like that proposal. …… ”
Lilith held her head.

“Well then, why don’t you ask him to redo the proposal? ”
Dominic said.
“What do you mean?”
Rio frowned. I’ve never heard of a proposal being redone.
“Because neither of you liked the proposal, right? Then why don’t you let them redo it until they like it? I also thought it would be a bad idea to propose to all three of them at the same time, so why don’t you suggest that each one of them should propose to the other?
“I see.”
Rio agreed easily.
“Well then…
Lilith seemed to think that was about right.
Then the three of them called Trao back and told him.
Please propose to each one of them properly.
Trao replied with a complicated expression on his face.
“How should I propose? ”
“You should at least think about that yourself! ”
Lilith yelled at him.
I’ll tell you what.
In the end, Trao decided to gather information from all the women he knew.
After talking to female employees of Trao Trading Company, female staff members of the stores he frequented, female adventurers he knew, and female staff members of the adventurers’ guild, he succeeded in preparing three promising ways of proposing to a woman.
The first to propose was Rio.
I made a reservation at the most expensive restaurant in the city where I was based, dressed in formal attire, and escorted Rio to the restaurant.
However, Trao froze when he was about to order the food. The price seemed to be very expensive to him. And since it was a high-class restaurant, there was no way to get around the low price menu.
Seeing that Trao did not order any more, Rio told the waiter
“Leave it to me.
Trao looked at the waiter with a desperate look on his face.
If you don’t like it that much, I’ll pay for it. “ Rio said to him.
he said, shaking his head vigorously and refusing to pay.
In the end, Trao ate slowly, savoring every bite of the fine food. For some reason, Rio was satisfied, although they did not have much conversation.
After finishing the meal, Trao asked Rio to marry him, to which Rio quietly shook his head and said, “Yes.
Then Trao proposed to Rio.
Next, Trao proposed to Dominic.
Following the advice that “an expensive present is a good way to propose”, Trao prepared a present for Dominic. A large number of grimoires and many precious materials.
The only reason he did not prepare gifts for Rio and Lilith was because he did not know what to give them, but he knew that Dominic would like these things.
Of course, the women who advised him would not have imagined that he would prepare such a gift.
However, Dominique was pleased and readily accepted Trao’s proposal. Dominique, a wizard, is a rational thinker and relatively understanding of Trao’s thoughts, and the proposal miraculously worked out.
The last time he proposed to her was in the middle of the night.
Lilith was the last one to propose.
Trao is a slow man, but he knew that Lilith was the most difficult person to propose to compared to the other two.
After listening to various advice, he realized that there were two pieces of good information. Namely, “ Women like flowers. The more flowers you have, the better” and ”If possible, a surprise is more acceptable.
One day, when Lilith opened the door to go back to her room after finishing her work, her vision instantly went completely black, and her body was pushed down to the corridor side by something that came avalanching down.
The next thing I felt was the strong scent of flowers. Lilith’s room was filled with as many flowers as possible.
Then Trao appeared and said.
“Will you marry me?
To Lilith, who was being crushed by the mass of flowers.
Lilith, who was on the verge of suffocating, expressed her consent with her right hand, which had barely escaped the mass of flowers, and gestured desperately with her right hand alone that she wanted to be saved as soon as possible.
In her fading consciousness, Lilith thought. It would be a bad idea to let this man propose to her. And this was more of a threat than a marriage proposal.
And so, Trao succeeded in his proposals and ended up marrying three wives.
Although there were many problems with the way he proposed, Trao seemed to be very happy.
He had liked them since the first time he saw the three garnets in the past.
