They decide to head to the school in order for Roxy to become a teacher. When they arrive at Vice Principal Jinas office, they see him at his table with piles of paperwork as usual. Upon seeing Roxy, his old student, Jinas was shocked. Roxy tells Jinas that she wants to become a teacher much to Jinas surprise. As they start talking, Rudeus leaves the room as he felt left out in the conversation. Rudeus heads to Zanoba’s research room. Zanoba, upon seeing Rudeus is shocked as just 6 months ago Rudeus told Zanoba he was going to come back in 2 years. Zanoba shows Rudeus what he’s been working on for the past half year. It was a glove like magic tool that can be used as a left hand for Rudeus which he had lost. Rudeus comes up with Zariff’s Prosthetic Hand as a name for the hand since Zanoba and Cliff worked to make it. After a bit of talking, Roxy enters the room and tells Rudeus that she got the job. After, Rudeus goes around and introduces Roxy to his friends such as Rinia, Pursena, Ariel, Luke and Nanahoshi. He didn’t go to Cliff because there were sultry sounds coming from his room and didn’t want to interfere. They leave school and head home but Rudeus realizes that’s he didn’t introduce Roxy and his wife. Rudeus says that he will eventually introduce her as his second wife.

Chapter 2: Year Three
Rudeus gets up and gets prepared to go to school for his third year. Before anything, he takes a look at his daughter Lucy. Rudeus had thoughts of Lucy being someone reincarnated but quickly brushed that aside. They also hire a nurse to take care of Lucy when they’re at school. They eat breakfast and head to the school. At the entrance, they encounter Rinia and Pursena. Upon hearing about Rudeus’s second wife, they tell Sylphy to not get outclassed. Sylphy makes a expression that’s shows discomfort and Rudeus thought that she was feeling uneasy on the inside. Loudly, Rudeus announced that he loved Sylphy and the people cheered. He then said that he also loved Roxy which most people booed at since most of the people were believers of Millis. Slyphy, visibly embarrassed, hurries to get to her duties. It was at this point that Rudeus remembered that in school she was Fittz. Roxy also hurries away after finding out there was a morning gathering for teacher. Rudeus then heads to homeroom. He then finds out from Rinia and Pursena that there are many rumors going around on how Rudeus lost his left hand. Cliff then calls Rudeus over and asks why he hadn’t greeted him upon his return. Rudeus states that it was because he sounded really busy with Elinalise so he decided not to bother. The homeroom teacher walks in with Roxy and states that Roxy will be their homeroom teacher next year as he is returning to his hometown. Roxy introduces herself as “Roxy M. Greyrat” and also says that she was Rudeus’s second wife. Cliff was visibly upset upon hearing the news however, since Rudeus wasn’t a Milis believer, he calmed down. Later, Rudeus heads home with Sylphy and Roxy. Rudeus then describes his life at home afterschool. Roxy prepares for her classes tomorrow, Aisha makes dinner, Sylphy cuddles with Lucy but occasionally trains her magic and Lilia took care of Zenith. When everyone was asleep at night, Rudeus sneaks into the basement, into a secret room to pray in front of the “holy relic”.

Chapter 3: Training with Norn
The chapter opens a month later. Rudeus is seen waking up and grabbing a stone sword he had made to use as a practice sword. Norn, in her gym outfit goes outside to train with Rudeus. They do workouts just so that they can get Norn’s body in shape and ready to learn the sword. After the workout, Norn asks Rudeus if she could start learning the sword. Rudeus thought for a second and then agreed but warned Norn that he was going to be strict. Norn agreed. In the evening, Rudeus and Norn is seen in the third external training ground near Ranoa Magic Academy. Rudeus warns Norn on quitting learning the sword, which includes the fact that Rudeus won’t teach her again and that Rudeus would never allow Norn to use Paul’s sword. They start by running with a sword in hand as in a battlefield, you need to know how to run fast with a sword in hand. Rudeus also discovered that Norn is reluctant to hitting someone with full force so Rudeus offers to stand still and be a dummy for Norn. Eventually, she gets rid of her reluctance to hit people. They spar at the end which Rudeus wins without even trying. As Rudeus was applying healing magic to Norn, he spots a bunch of onlookers. Rudeus tells Norn to leave and change. He then walks over to the onlookers and asks what they were doing. They were all scared to speak at first but one of them eventually said something. He said that Rudeus was bullying Norn as she never expressed the want to learn how to use the sword according to him. He also stated that he forced Norn to learn the sword. Rudeus quickly clears up the misconceptions telling them that she was his sister and that she’s training by her own will. Rudeus discovers that this group of onlookers was like a fan club for Norn. Rudeus establishes a fan club for Norn consisting of around 30 members and also making rules on contacting Norn. Three days later, Rudeus was kicked out of the fan club for bathing with Norn.

Chapter 4: Can I Keep Him?
Aisha was seen in the garden caring for the plants with Zenith. They were pulling out weeds. Rudeus then remembers a time when Zenith would always spend her time pulling out weed from her garden. Aisha then tells Rudeus to wait in her room because she wants to show him something. Later, Rudeus goes to Aisha’s room. He looks around the room and notes what’s inside. He stated that the room was perfectly clean from top to bottom. He also states how there were plants near the window and how there was a doll that’s looked like a magician on her bed. He also checked out her closet which has maid clothes, panties, shirts and other girly clothes. All of them were neatly folded or hanged. Suddenly, Rudeus hears sound coming from somewhere. He looks everywhere until he finds out that one of the plants was a Treant. Aisha then enters the room. They argue about whether or not to keep the Treant. Aisha threatens to tell Sylphy and Roxy about the hidden shrine in the basement. Just then, Roxy walks into the room. Aisha was about to tell Roxy about the shrine but was stopped by Rudeus with his hand. Roxy looks at the Treant and was amazed. Roxy states that the Treant was harmless meaning Aisha could keep it. They decided to name it Baby Treant or Beet for short. Rudeus established rules such as not letting Beet near Lucy, training it to not hurt anyone, everyone must be informed on what the plant is and it must be disposed immediately if it hurts anyone.

Chapter 5: Paternal Dignity
Three months pass and it’s the summer. Rudeus is looking at Lucy thinking about Paul. He thinks that he finally understands what it means to be a father. He also wonders if this is what Paul felt like when he had Rudeus. Suddenly, Lucy starts to cry. Rudeus tries to calm her down by making faces like his father had done. Suzzane, the nurse and Rudeus’s old adventure friend, walks up to them. After exchanging a couple words, Suzzane says it was time to breast feed Lucy so Rudeus goes into his room to study the mana absorbing magic stone he got from when they fought the Hydra. He figured out that in order for the mana absorption to work, you need to put mana in the back of the stone. However, the amount of mana needed needs to be more or equal to the amount of mana the spell or magic circle has. It was like distortion magic but better since it can dispel completed spells. After, Zanoba, Ginger, and Julie arrive at the Greyrat household. Zanoba tells Rudeus about the progress he’s made on investigating the automatic doll. He says that he has finished investigating the hands and are now moving onto the feet. He also tells him that he has to make a new prosthetic hand from scratch which could take a month. Then, Julie goes up to Rudeus and gives him a doll of Ruijerd she was assigned to make. Rudeus notes on how Julie had improved. They also talk about Norn, who seems to have a hidden talent for writing. She wrote a story on Ruijerd and Julie can’t stop asking Rudeus to read it to her. It is revealed that Rudeus wants Roxy to teach him King ranked water magic.

At school, lustful noises can be heard from a gym locker room. Roxy runs out the the gym locker as the student council arrive on the scene. Luke and Fittz(aka Sylphy) arrive and Luke says that Rudeus was attacking a “female student”. Luke hands the situation to Fittz to deal with. Fittz sighs as she tells Roxy that many people still don’t know that Roxy is teacher. Fittz also scolds Rudeus for what happened. Fittz thought that Rudeus was trying to seduce Roxy but then realizes that Rudeus was just trying to get Roxy to teach him King ranked water magic. Roxy didn’t want to because she was scared that her student would become better than her but she agreed eventually. Later in the day, Rudeus, Sylphy, and Roxy head out the the outskirts to learn King ranked water magic. Roxy demonstrated the King ranked water magic [ Lightning]. It starts as the Saint ranked water magic [ Cumulonimbus] but after a few more incantations, lightning struck a tree completely disintegrating it. Roxy then fell as the spell used up all her magic. Rudeus tries to use the spell. He uses it without any problems. Sylphy also tries but failed on the last part. After this, Rudeus officially becomes a King ranked water magic user. As they were riding home, Roxy and Sylphy are both visibly exhausted. On the way home, Rudeus thinks about what had happened throughout his life.

As he sleeps, he thinks about the relationships he has with Roxy and Sylphy. Being the pervert he is, he wants to have a threesome with them. The next morning, he goes to Cliff’s laboratory.

Cliff and Elinalise say their oaths, kiss each other on the forehead, and they get married under the Milis church. As everyone looks at the newlyweds, Roxy looks at Rudeus with a red face. Rudeus has never had a wedding ceremony with Roxy before. So he kisses Roxy on the forehead. Sylphy gives an expression that she also wants one so she kisses her on the forehead as well. Norn, looking embarrassed that someone of her relation is doing this at a wedding, complains. However, Rudeus picks her up and kisses her on the forehead as well.

She looks at the price tag on the hat and silently declares it too expensive. Sylphy and Rudeus notice this and then Roxy’s present was also decided. They walk around some more and as the shops start closing, they head towards a tavern that Elinalise told Rudeus to go to because it was the perfect place to do the deed. But what Rudeus didn’t expect was for Roxy and Sylphy to already know about this place. Sylphy was worried that Lucy would have no one taking care of her but Rudeus got Lilia to do that. Roxy also had concerns about school but Rudeus also took care of that. Without anything to worry about, they gave themselves to Rudeus’s care. First they had dinner, then they do the deed.
