Instead, he was having to decide the fate of real girls. These were their lives that he had in the palm of his hand, and any decision that he made would affect them greatly. It wasn't something that he'd asked for, but it was what he had to deal with. No matter what he chose, he'd have to leave with the results, and both had their advantages, and disadvantages.
On the one hand, leaving them there would let them stay where they had come from. That would keep them with their own minds, and their own choices. Then they could live their own lives how they wanted, without him interfering and controlling their existences. They weren't asking him to do anything with them, and he knew that if he did something to them, he'd be as bad as some might think. Of course, leaving them in that hellish existence was not something that he'd wish on anyone, since it was not something chosen by them, and was certainly not a fun time to be had. And the fact was that they'd never asked for that, or any of the other mess that they had been subjected to. He might not have seen a lot of the show, but he was well aware of the screwed up lives they'd had to lead.
But then, the alternative was for him to use his spell to bring them to the world he was on at the moment. If he did that, then they'd be free of the mass jello impression, and would be back to having their individuality. Life would restart for them, and they'd have lost the pain from that... state of being. However, it would also mean serving him as his maids, which wouldn't be so bad if it was merely a job. The problem with that was that they were utterly devoted to him, and would follow any command that he gave them. Each of them also lost their memories, which took away their individuality, and were placed in his control. Had he been as hormonal as some of the boys he'd known, he could have abused the loyalty that the shapely maids put in him, not that they would mind, as they apparently were willing to thrash him to marry him. Then again, if he did bring more, he'd have that many additional pretty girls wearing maid uniforms in his service.
'Option one' would keep the girls free from a life of servitude and submission, but would also make them stay with the consistency of jello, mentally and physically because he left them there..
The other choice would get them away from an eternity of complete human unity and mental hell, but would subject them to being amnesiac and submissive maids, with him as 'Master' of a possibly peverted situation that he would be at fault for.
Growling under his breath, he grabbed at his hair as he tried to come to some sort of decision.
It wasn't something that would be easy to handle, but he knew that he'd have to do just that. Anything he did would be his fault alone, and he knew it. Others might make suggestions, or help him figure it out, but in the end, only he could decide. And right then, his decision making was going on in overdrive.
At that moment, the only thing that he could think to do was to:
