Hey everyone!
I know I promised a chapter today, but I’m a bit stuck right now. I’ve been considering introducing another love interest for Kaito. I already have one planned besides Hotaru, and I feel that adding this new character would fit naturally into the story.
I know the last poll about whether Kaito should have a harem resulted in a no, but when I posted that poll, I had already envisioned Kaito having more than one lover due to how the story is unfolding. This isn't about forcing a harem—it's about character development and what feels right for the narrative.
If I decide to include her, she would need to appear in the next arc to ensure their ages align. But don’t worry—Hotaru isn’t being sidelined! She remains Kaito’s main love interest. I’ve also already hinted at another love interest in the previous chapter because of the changes Kaito has already made to the timeline. Sticking to the original canon pairing wouldn’t make sense in this version of the story.
So, in total, Kaito would have three wives in the future:
Hotaru Hyuga – She remains the main love interest.
A second love interest – Already confirmed but will come into play later.
A potential third love interest – If I include her, she must be introduced in the next arc to ensure their ages match.
I won’t be adding more beyond this, but I’d love to hear your thoughts! I’m putting up a poll for the next 24 hours, and based on the results, I’ll decide how to proceed with the next arc. Let me know what you think!
