If I were not already dead, I think I would truly die again.

Not remembering to breathe really might be the death of me in the next life once again.

The only good thing about being dead is the fact that even if I do not breathe I will not die.

No matter how many times I see it, I'm just blown away. My mind will complete turn into a blank canvas as a picture is painted before my eyes. I'll even find myself easily forgetting and losing myself in the scene before me.

Her smile was so beautiful I could die thousands of times over. Her eyes were brightened as crescent moon formed above them. Her black and ornamented flowing hair dangled beautifully to her knees behind her. The blue one piece dress she wore completely had me lost in another world. Her fair smooth skin peeking out from her sides. Her delicate back exposed, barely covered by a cross shaped fabric. It was attached to the insides of her dress and passed below her arms and attached to a ring centered behind her forming a perfect X. Two rings around her left leg and a strange jagged knee high legging on her right leg. She had lovely bracers stretching from her elbows to a little past her wrists on both arms with golden intricate ornaments adjourned on her upper arms. This was a true goddess who could bring any man to their demise. Bringing asymmetry and symmetry to a picturesque harmony. She was the definition of equilibrium; a perfect balance between enchanting and provocative.

The moment the words left my mouth earlier it was like I was in another world, completely ignorant to the old fogey in the background. It was like a world of pink flowers formed around her straight out of a shoujo manga. I'll admit, I hate the idea of the flowery backgrounds behind every character in shoujo mangas but in this one moment I will concede defeat.

A simple smile from her could shatter all my beliefs. A frown could bring about a raging tsunami within my heart. A single word from her could enrapture me for uncountable days. If I were to forever remain dead I could stay dead happy just knowing she were my wife.

After an unknown duration of time in our own little world, the goddess before me let out a small giggle. It was as if there were chiming bells thundering and reverberating within my mind. I can only wonder how a simple giggle from her could make me lose my mind so easily?

"Well father, I'd like to introduce you to your son in law." She kept looking directly into my eyes paying no mind to the frozen expression on her father's face that looked like he stepped in some rancid horse dung on the side of the road.

His face scrunched up and warped greatly until all that could be made out was a sea of wrinkles.

My eyes suddenly widened as if I were struck by lightning "Ah, that reminds me there are certain things to consider. How could I be so thoughtless? I forgot about a betrothal gift! My wife I am such a fool. Give me one moment my wife, I must discuss the details with father in law."

As I turned away from her, a wicked grin stretched from one ear to the next as I walked towards the depressed father who looked at me with a face which looked like a donkey's rear end.

"Father in law, earlier you mentioned that I could make any request, right?"

"What are you talking about? Marrying my daughter is your request, is it not? Anyways I refuse to accept that request. You can ask anything else, but not that!"

"Father! How can you go back on your words like this?! This is his request, you cannot go back on it!"

"My wife, I think you are mistaking something here. That was not a request of him that I just made. That was my declaration to you. What does your father have to do with your marriage? You are not his possession. You are an a.d.u.l.t who can make your own decisions."

"Eh? Ah, you're right. Well my answer is yes anyways. So I guess you do still have a request to make."

My lovely wife seemed to have confusion written all over her face which I could only lovingly be entranced with.

"My wife, I have certain things to speak with father in law about in private. I must ask my beautiful wife to step outside for a moment and promise not to listen in. Don't worry, I will definitely convince father in law to accept my request."

Father in law then interrupted me while he grinded and gnashed his teeth with rage filled eyes "damn it I never agreed to this marriage! Don't you dare call her your wife! She is my daughter, not your wife! Also, who's your father in law?! I'm old enough to be your millionth great grandfather apart. Bow down and pay your respects to your millionth great grand daddy."

"Father in law knows how to joke I see. Don't worry MY WIFE, just give our father and I some time."

"GRRRRRRRRRAAAAHHHHH! STINKY LITTLE BRAT!"

Father in law seemed to be completely lost in his rage as he desperately tried to calm his heavy breathing.

My goddess wife blinked her sparkling eyes innocently while she looked at me before she gave a light nod with a small blush on her cheeks as she stepped outside the door.

"What husband asks, his little wife will naturally follow." She let out a small giggle before sliding the door shut.

The old man seemed to have just aged ten years as he coughed out some blood due to his excessive rage.

"What is your request you wretched little wanker?"

I walked over to my defeated father in law as I bent down to his level with a bright smile as I whispered into his ears.

"You see, my request is really not difficult at all. It is actually very simple. All I want from you is for you to give me a betrothal gift that I can give to my wife to win my little wife's… or perhaps I should say to win me your little daughter's heart."

Thud.

I can only stare with wide bulging eyes at the moment.

...he collapsed.

"..." I'm truly speechless.

All I wanted was a betrothal gift to give to your daughter. Father in law, is there really a need to collapse like this out of nowhere? What will your daughter think when she sees this scene? What if she thinks I like to bully stinky old men? I don't have any kind of weird hobbies like that! Fudge, does he have high blood pressure or some kind of weird disease? Did he hit his head somewhere? I wonder if they have medicine for this in this world?

Without me knowing it at the time; I was probably the first and the last person who would ever accomplish such an amazing feat. I actually defeated the mightiest god in existence. The god of war, Sen Kami, fell before my very eyes due to my actions. No… perhaps it would be better to say he fell before my very eyes due to my words. Am I actually super strong?
