"Of course, you can give it a try."
Tushan smiled.
The items provided by the system were naturally of impeccable quality.
It was just that she was already strong enough, so she didn't place much importance on those items.
Nami blinked suspiciously, examining the string of keys in her hand with some doubt.
There were fifteen different keys on that string.
Some of them were exceptionally luxurious in design, clearly valuable at a glance.
Nami nodded silently as she looked at them.
Whether or not this thing had combat capabilities, it at least looked like a treasure that could fetch a high price.
As she pondered this, Nami's hand casually rested on one of the keys.
The next second!
Nami's eyes suddenly became vacant!
Just as Tushan was feeling a bit surprised, a hint of depth quickly appeared in that emptiness.
Then, a dark light quietly flowed through Nami's eyes.
"What..."
"What just happened?!"
Nami snapped back to reality, looking incredulously at the key she had picked up.
At the moment she touched it, it felt as if something beyond the heavens had established a connection with her!
"Little Dog... is that the name of the celestial spirit this key can summon?"
Nami murmured to herself.
That brief moment of strangeness was enough to convince Nami that the item in her hand was no ordinary object!
As she thought about it, a hint of excitement suddenly appeared in Nami's eyes.
She quickly grasped the key in her hand, then swiftly raised her hand, tracing a special path in the air.
"Open, Gate of the Little Dog!"
As her voice fell, a peculiar multicolored light instantly filled the room.
The light quickly rose and dissipated, eventually transforming into a cloud of smoke that drifted away.
Beneath the smoke, a strange creature appeared, entirely snow-white, with a sorrowful expression and a nose like a carrot stuck in a snowman, standing less than twenty centimeters tall.
The creature trembled, seemingly unable to stand steadily.
"POOF~ HMM~~"
"This is..."
"So cute~!!"
Seeing the creature she had summoned, Nami's eyes instantly sparkled with hearts, and she rushed forward to scoop it into her arms.
Feeling the plush, doll-like softness of the creature, Nami couldn't bear to let go.
"So that's the Little Dog celestial spirit... I remember it's called Plue."
Tushan muttered to herself.
The items given by the system came from various worlds.
Like this string of celestial spirit keys, which originated from the world of [Fairy Tail].
Tushan wasn't sure if it suited Nami, but judging by Nami's delighted expression, it seemed to be a good match.
"Hey, Nami, celestial spirit keys are excellent even in combat. The Little Dog you summoned is purely for cuteness. Why not try summoning one of the celestial spirits from the golden keys? Those are incredibly powerful..."
"No need."
Nami interrupted Tushan without turning her head.
With a beaming smile, she held the sorrowful-looking Nikora and said, "I've already felt the magic of this string of keys. It's truly an extraordinary treasure!"
Tushan chuckled at her words. "Haha, as long as you like it."
"But now that you've received the treasure, shouldn't you also consider becoming my wife?"
"Ah, well..."
Nami's smile faded as she heard this, and she began to seriously ponder while gently squeezing Nikora in her arms.
Tushan's sudden request caught her off guard.
However, considering that Tushan could casually give her such a treasure, it seemed he wasn't joking.
Moreover, Tushan's strength might indeed be formidable.
If she could be with Tushan, perhaps saving her village wouldn't be so difficult...
Although she was already working hard toward that goal.
The evil dragon had promised to return the village to her if she could gather a hundred million Beli.
But Nami knew deep down that, given the dragon's nature, it wouldn't be easy to escape his grasp.
Yet she still followed his demands, clinging to that faint hope...
Now, Tushan's sudden appearance seemed to offer her a greater hope.
As she thought about it, Nami slowly raised her head, her eyes shimmering as she looked at Tushan.
Nami considered herself willing to give up her body to achieve her goals.
Although no one had ever been worthy of her body until now, for the sake of the village...
Giving it to the man before her seemed acceptable!
Moreover, Nami didn't see it as exchanging her body for something...
If Tushan was sincere, she would be more than happy to be with such an outstanding person!
...
After thinking for a long time, Nami finally curled her lips into a smile.
As she placed the string of celestial spirit keys against her chest, she said with a smile, "Since I've already accepted the dowry, it seems there's no reason to refuse~"
"To be your wife..."
"I agree!"
Tushan's face lit up with joy as he listened.
He immediately stepped forward and tightly embraced Nami.
Plue, nestled in Nami's arms, was almost suffocated...
"Nami, from now on, you are my wife, Tushan's wife!"
"From today onward, whatever you desire in this world, just ask."
Tushan closed his eyes and spoke slowly.
Feeling the warmth of the body holding her and the sincerity in his words, Nami's inner defenses finally began to relax.
At this moment, the man before her seemed like the husband she deeply loved!
Finally, Tushan lifted his head, gazing affectionately at Nami, whose face was gradually turning rosy again.
Then, his lips moved gently, and he slowly leaned in for a kiss.
The two of them were entwined in passion for a long time.
Until a soft cough sounded at the door.
Only then did they reluctantly separate.
"Um... Makino, let me formally introduce you."
Looking at Makino standing at the door with a helpless expression, Tushan said calmly, "Nami, like you, will also be my beloved wife from now on!"
"I hope you two sisters can get along well in the future."
Makino sighed softly and said, "It seems you've already made up your minds... Don't worry, I'm not a petty person. As long as Nami is willing, I hope we can become good sisters."
Hearing Makino's words, Tushan smiled contentedly.
Turning to Nami, he spoke again, "This is Makino, a very gentle and virtuous wife. I hope you can become good sisters with her."
Nami glanced at Makino at the door.
Seeing her smiling gently at her, Nami returned the smile, "Sister Makino, please take care of me from now on~"
"Welcome, Nami."
Makino nodded.
Nami then turned back, looking somewhat resentfully at Tushan, and said, "But you said gentle and virtuous. Do you see me as a violent shrew?!!"
"Uh, haha, of course not. Nami, you're incredibly cute!!"
Tushan quickly replied with a laugh.
"Hmph~"
"That's more like it."
With a soft snort, Nami hugged Plue and turned to pull Makino into the room for a chat.
Watching the two of them getting along so well, Tushan felt a sense of relief.
"If things continue like this..."
"My empire of 'love' might not take long to realize!"
"Haha..."
"But speaking of sisters... Nami seems to have an older sister."
"Well, I'll have to go to Cocoyasi Village to help Nami deal with the dragon eventually. I'll bring her sister along then~"
