My Hidden Heresy Skill Forged an SSS-Ranked Harem for Infinite Points

”You may rise,” Ryan intervened, issuing a command to his party members. His voice filled the room, cutting short the wait of the women awaiting his words.

’It’s not like I care about these formalities, I haven’t even thought about how long they should stay on their knees, let alone now that Karol broke protocol,’ he thought, looking down at them from his seat.

For him, seeing them in that position wasn’t something he sought or needed. He preferred them standing, ready to move at any moment if necessary. The girls who were still kneeling listened to the instruction attentively.

They nodded in silence, obeying their leader’s command without question or hesitation.

And then they stood up. Mirian got to her feet first, brushing off her clothes to remove the dust, closely followed by Irina and Beatrice as they adjusted themselves.

Lise stood up alongside Alicia, settling into her place calmly.

And Chloe, unsure whether to leave or stay, held her ground, imitating the posture of the others, though she moved slightly closer to the rest of the group—not enough, however, to be noticed by the other women as an intrusion.

’I wonder what I’ll do with her, after she stops being a babysitter, I mean,’ Ryan thought, glancing sideways at Chloe. Then he refocused his gaze on the young mage.

”Alright, Karol, explain that matter. I’m interested in hearing about it too,” Ryan said from his throne chair. He crossed his hands and waited patiently. He wanted to hear the information the mage had prepared for everyone.

Karol tried to adopt a serious stance in front of Ryan. She straightened her back and attempted to put on the face of an instructor. She wanted to prove she was still someone with great knowledge and authority within the party.

Though her small figure and childish voice made it difficult to take her completely seriously. Seeing her at her current size didn’t help at all in conveying the respect she wished to command in front of the others.

”There are Twins for every magical element: lightning, ice, metal, wood, gravity. They were created about 500 years ago,” she began explaining, raising one of her tiny fingers to point.

Karol looked directly at Ryan, seeking his full attention. And just as she opened her mouth to continue, she suddenly stopped. She lowered her hand and fell silent for a few seconds.

She began looking up at the rest of the girls from below. Having to tilt her head back to see the faces of Helen, Mirian, Beatrice, and the others was wearing her out quickly.

Her tiny stature forced her to look upward just to speak to them. Suddenly, she puffed out her cheeks, showing her clear annoyance at the situation.

She crossed her arms and scowled at the other women surrounding her.

”This is really annoying. I’m not going to speak while looking up at everyone from down here,” Karol complained loudly.

’And whose fault do you think that is, idiot?’ Ryan thought from his chair. He knew her current state was due to her own carelessness, so he felt no pity for her complaint.

Karol turned around immediately, turning her back on the other girls in the party. She bent her knees and leaped toward Ryan at great speed, launching herself with her small legs.

”It will be more comfortable from up there,” she said mid-air, fully intending to land on Ryan. Her goal was to reach the throne and sit beside him on the chair so she wouldn’t have to look up at the others from below.

Suddenly, in a tiny fraction of a second, a sharp burst of air echoed through the room.

The sound was so fast and loud that it sliced through the wind in the chamber.

SWISH.

”So fast,” the rest of the girls said almost in unison, their eyes widening.

Beatrice, Alicia, and Irina were startled by the instantaneous reaction that had just occurred before them.

The only exception was Lise, who looked at them with indifference, showing no emotion at the speed she witnessed.

Helen and Mirian appeared abruptly right in front of Ryan’s throne. Both stood before him, guarding the spot from the mage.

They ended up just a meter away from Ryan. Karol’s figure was no longer advancing through the air. She was now suspended upside down. Her blue hair touched the floor, brushing against the surface, as did her arms, which dangled uncontrollably toward the base of the throne.

And both of her legs were trapped. Mirian and Helen each held one, preventing the small mage from moving any further.

”Let me go!” she shouted in a childish voice, kicking uselessly to try to break free from her companions.

”Don’t try to get smart, you’re not jumping on Ryan,” Helen scolded her, gripping her leg very firmly so she couldn’t move.

”You’re just trying to take advantage of any situation to attack,” Mirian added, looking at Karol with a mocking smile as she held the other leg.

Both Mirian and Helen turned around together and descended the three steps of the throne to return to their positions. They moved forward, dragging Karol along with them. The mage was still hanging upside down.

And while they argued among themselves, filling the room with their voices and complaints, Ryan ignored all the noise around him.

Ryan began to evaluate his women with great interest.

’Yes, they’ve really become incredibly fast,’ Ryan thought, recalling the exact moment they had jumped.

Their movements had been almost imperceptible as they intercepted Karol in mid-air with such precision. He concentrated and mentally activated the inspection skill on them to see their current numbers.

’Impressive. Helen is even stronger than I was when I became SS-Rank. But of course, she gained many levels from fighting the demon king. Plus, that title she obtained... raised her stats significantly,’ Ryan concluded, closing Helen’s screen.

Seeing that massive amount of strength and defense left him very satisfied with the results she had achieved after so much effort.

Then he shifted his eyes toward Mirian, who was still holding Karol and arguing with her.

’Mirian has also progressed in an incredible way,’ Ryan thought, staring intently at the immense agility displayed by the system.

’Them defeating the earth dragon is a massive achievement in itself. Now I’ll evaluate the rest,’ Ryan thought, preparing to check the numbers of the other girls.

Ryan looked at his companions with pride, feeling he had a very strong party by his side. Then he swept his eyes over the remaining girls to gauge their stats one by one.

He looked at Beatrice, Alicia, Irina, and Lise very calmly.

”Inspect.”
