Chapter 37 – Chapter 37 – Warm-Up (3)

The light faded from the pregnancy confirmation pattern pasted on the saintess’ stomach.
Marina seemed ashamed to see her half-naked, but couldn’t protest against the hideous aura of her hero.

“It’s full.”

The hero first looked at the saintess’ belly and opened her mouth.
As she said, the heart in the center of the pattern was completely filled, indicating that a new child was born inside.

The saintess bit her lip and was silent.

In the meantime, she had prepared her mind, and it was an atmosphere where it was taken for granted that she was pregnant.
But she seemed unable to bear her agitation as she really had her life in her.

Hernán took a deep breath in the tense atmosphere and went to the saintess.
Marina had a face that wanted to say a lot to the man who impregnated her.

“Holy Lady.”

Hernán opened her mouth as she lowered the saintess’s rolled-up clothes.

“You are pregnant.”

“That’s right…”

Their conversation ended with that.
It wasn’t a pregnancy to be blessed with, and the atmosphere in the living room right now is too heavy.
It was difficult for her to say anything longer, whether it was congratulations or resentment.

Hernán wanted to hold her hand instead, but when the hero opened her mouth from behind, she gave up.

“The special room will be open, so let’s go.”

The saintess also took a step back after seeing the warrior’s expression behind Hernan.

I don’t know what exactly caused the atmosphere that was okay to become like this all at once.
But, like a discerning saint, she must have felt that she shouldn’t stick with Hernán.

Hernan also hurried back to the warrior’s side.
She saw Potty twitching in her long ears as she made her way to her side.

She wanted to hug her, to comfort her.
She wanted to scold her or why she did such a reckless thing.

Of course, if you talk to her now, her warrior’s anger, which was temporarily hidden thanks to her holy maiden’s pregnancy test, will return to her.

The hero from earlier stood up and grabbed the back of the chair.
The situation where an angry warrior wields it at someone should be avoided as much as possible.

Laughing bitterly, Hernan took his eyes off Potty.

When Karine arrived next to Hernán, she immediately set off towards the special room.
She was nervous because she knew she would say something, but when she didn’t say anything, it made her even more nervous.

Hernán couldn’t even wipe off the cold sweat and followed the hero to the sound of the lock dropping.

The door the sound came from was the second door from the right.
Silnia’s Mojo Forest, which was opened last time, was at the far right.

If so, she must be the one left, the owner of the special room in the middle of nowhere, a woman who is not yet pregnant.

Hernán secretly examined Carine’s face.
She had a displeased face as she looked at the place in the middle of the room that had been decided as her own special room.

Is she thinking she might be pregnant too?

Hernán didn’t know what changes would happen here, but he was sure Carine would never become pregnant with normal changes.

Isn’t Karine also refusing to have sex with her?

While Hernan and Carine stared at the door of the special room, the other women also arrived at the special room.

Karine called Marina, the owner of the newly opened room.

“Marina. It’s your room, you open it.”

After hearing the hero’s words, the saintess who came forward to her group had a rather nervous face.
Well, she deserves to be nervous.

So far, among the special rooms that have been used to celebrate pregnancy, the one that the owner really likes is the Sharpie space.

Potty had little interest in the lab itself, and Silnia had to taste greater frustration and sadness.
Perhaps even Marina will be shaken by the demon’s cruel gift.

Hernan watched as her saintess opened the door, preparing for the scene that would unfold before her.

“Oh… !”

When the door to the special room opened, bright light poured in.
The saintess slightly squinted at the light and opened the door completely.
She soon adjusted to the light and looked around and opened her mouth.

“Here… ?”

There was a huge pillar at the end of the saintess’ gaze.
Brilliant light was sprinkled from the surface of the pillar, brightening up the room.

The hero patted Marina, who was watching it blankly, and came out in front of her.

“It is the temple of the Goddess of Mercy.”

As Karine said, that huge pillar is a symbol of the goddess Marina serves, and it is a structure that must be built in any temple to that goddess.

It is the light that guides the poor and the heat that soothes the cold of orphans.
Marina kept watching what she called the lighthouse, Sharpie said slightly cautiously.

“Isn’t it too bright? If the temple shines like this all day, the priests and followers will all go blind.”

At those words, the saintess smiled and went back to her pillar.
She walked around the pillars, dragging a huge curtain hanging from the ceiling.

As a curtain made of thick cloth was drawn, the light that had been illuminating the entire temple was hidden.
Only then did everyone take their eyes off the pillar and look elsewhere.

This place, which followed the Temple of the Goddess of Mercy, did not seem to have much difference from the original.

Funeral chairs that are rather cute than grand, and things that are simple rather than splendid.
Even the wall of the building itself does not even have a picture depicting gods on easily available brick materials.

“I don’t mean to insult the poor or orphans.”

The saintess sneaked up to Hernán as he looked around.

“Anyway, when expensive items are brought in, they often disappear, so our denomination often uses cheap items.”

Hernán nodded his head.
Then, thinking that the saintess might have approached her too much, she looked at Carrie’s side.

Fortunately, she knocked on the brick wall and occasionally glanced sideways at Forty.

Thinking that Hernan was barely breathing, she spoke to the saintess.

“The demon god even provides temples for other gods.”

“For what purpose did you give it to me?”

The saintess smiled bitterly and placed her hand on the veil through which the gentle heat was transmitted.
Even though the light of the pillars was blocked by the thick cloth, the warmth was still transmitted.

Marina said quietly, placing her hand on her belly.

“Is it to mock the saintess who lost her divine power?”

Hernan thought it was possible.
If it was a demon god, it might have been offered in that sense.
It was only about 15 days ago that Silnia was already exposed to the god’s malice.

The saintess did not expose her intense emotions like Silnia.
But there was a misery in her words that could not be concealed.

“My church isn’t cruel, so they won’t expel me. As long as they don’t find out that I gave birth to a child…”

“Saint…”

“Perhaps even giving birth to a child will be treated in the name of mercy.”

When Hernan’s face darkened, the saintess hurriedly changed her words to reveal her positive outlook.

However, I heard that her church, which is more merciful to its followers than any other church, applies rather strict rules to its priests.

“If you don’t like it, you can go to a convent. So, Hernando, don’t make a face that is too dark.”

Hernán forcibly tried to relax her facial muscles, but since she had an expression that the saintess was fine, it was rather difficult for her.

She opened her mouth once more as Hernán still couldn’t laugh.

“This is not Hernan’s fault. Of course… It’s not the warrior’s fault. It was just a victim of the tricks of the gods.”

Even though the saintess’ words were not particularly malicious, each time they continued, it made it difficult for Hernan to straighten her expression.

“As I cared for orphans, I often saw them exposed to the malice around them,” She says.
Later, he learned the malice and returned the same.”

Hernan’s eyes suddenly turned to the hero.
She cared less about the brick wall now, but about Potty, her head down in the corner.

How will Karine, the illegitimate daughter, treat the illegitimate children who will live here for several years?

Hernan felt her heart grow heavy and listened to her saintess.

“So if I hate someone, the kid who will grow up here for years will grow up watching it. It can’t give you love, but it’s kind of hard to teach you to hate.”

When the father of the child growing inside her couldn’t stop laughing, she took a step back as if remembering something.

“If this was a complete copy of the temple, there would probably be that space too…”

The saintess circled around her pillar and inspected the wall closely.
She immediately found something and put her hand on the wall.

“Here you are.”

Marina tightened her hand and the wall moved.
No, to be precise, the door that looked like a wall opened.

It was quite loud, so the other women looked this way.
The saintess beckoned to other women to see if she was hiding it.

After everyone gathered, the saintess entered the dark room.
The room, deliberately dimly lit, was as large as the space outside.

Silnia turned her head around, and she said in a cheery voice.

“Is this a nursery?”

The saintess nodded her head and looked around her.

Small blankets were stacked in bulk on one side, and dolls and wooden toys were stacked on the other side.

A significant amount of cloth that looked like diapers was also piled up on a shelf installed in a location out of reach of children.

The saintess examined them with her familiar hand movements and explained them.

“Our temple also serves as an orphanage, so there is also a nursery room. Doors are usually camouflaged like this to prevent dangerous people from easily entering.”

“Is there any other space?”

The hero looked through the items in the room with a not very bright face.
The saintess shook her head.

“Originally, there should be a door leading to another part of the temple in this room. But I can’t see it.”

“Then there is nothing more to see. Let’s go, Hernan.”

“Me?”

Hernán was embarrassed to see Carine, who was suddenly leaving.
She was reluctant to leave already, as she herself was going to check the supplies for her children.

But Carine grabbed him by the hand and led him out the door.

The pregnant women looked at him and sent Hernán away with their eyes.
Especially Potty watched Hernán leave with her sad eyes.

Hernán went outside with Carine, feeling that her stomach was stuffy.

* * *

Arriving at Karine’s room, and as soon as Hernán sat down in her chair, the hero spoke sharply to Hernán.

“L! Can I trust your plan?”

“The plan that you take care of the women and I only look at you?”

“Yes, the plan.”

That plan is possible under the premise that women have something they want from Karine, and that Karine has the ability to grant it.

The latter may be questionable, but may be considered worthy of a walk.
At least it’s not like there’s no chance.

But what about the former?

“Did you hear what the wizard said earlier? No, what about the way I gave you a rose before that and the way I seduced you to sleep before I gave you my permission?”

Hearing the furious voice that was not like Karine, Hernan thought calmly.

The saintess and the elf reacted positively when the hero tried to give her trust, as Hernan had thought beforehand.

Since the Demon King’s purpose is to survive in the first place and he behaves well, he will not do anything to displease the hero.

Therefore, the possibility that the three of them would not seek them out unless absolutely necessary increased.

But Potty is different.

“That bitch is after you! It may be that you joined our party for ulterior motives in the first place.”

The wizard Poti is openly expressing that he loves him, and he doesn’t care that the hero is Hernán’s lover.

Jangmi somehow got over it, but Potty’s proposal today is not something to be discounted.
The hero now feels that Potty has completely crossed her line, and will be vigilant against her.

Why the hell did he do such a risky thing?
Potty, who has almost no social experience, may not be able to predict the repercussions of his actions.

If so, it is dangerous in the future.

As Hernan predicted, Karine opened her mouth with her bloody eyes.

“If you leave, I will threaten you even more with the pretext of mingling with you here. Perhaps he will use his illegitimate son as a weapon to make bigger and bigger demands.”

Carine continued her words nervously.

“So you have to press down in advance so that it doesn’t tail anymore!”

Feeling her ominousness, Hernan looked at Carine.
He suppressed the throbbing in her heart and raised his voice.

“Are you thinking of hitting me like last time?”

Carine sent her eyes asking for her consent without saying anything.
Hernán, afraid to look into those eyes, lowered her head and continued her words.

“Potty is already pregnant. If you attack with emotion, you will definitely miscarry. And Potty is probably the most fertile body here.”

In other words, if Karine attacks, the time to leave will be delayed.
And there is one more reason why Carine shouldn’t attack Potty.

“Besides, with that level of violence, the Demon God will intervene. If it is that god who is strangely obsessed with pregnancy, then surely.”

Carine couldn’t answer her, and she hesitated.
But as soon as she got up the minute she started talking to her again.

“Then you want me to just watch you flirt?”

Hernán felt that conversations with Carine were getting more and more difficult.
In the midst of this, another woman kept coming to mind.

A sharpie that accepts any sexual desire.
Potty showing fierce love.
Marina forgives the man who trampled on her mercilessly.
Silnia weeps and clings to her to keep her promise.

And Karine, who rarely expresses her affection for her own…

Hernan got up from his seat, confused about who his lover was.

“L? Where?”

“I will warn Potty and come. I’m your lover, so don’t approach me.”

Karine looked at her lover, taken aback by those words.

“Before that, talk to me…”

“You’re just going to tell me what to do with Forty anyway!”

Since she embarked on a journey to subdue the demon lord, she shouted at Karine with her feelings for almost the first time.
When Hernan looked at Carine before leaving, she was looking this way with only her eyes wide open.

Hernán felt her heart sway in her eyes, and she tried to turn her head away.

“Sorry for yelling. Anyway, I’ll warn Potty.”

Ernan opened the door and stepped out.
There was the sound of something breaking through the closing door, but he ignored it and went to Potty, who was sitting on a chair at the table.

Forty pricked up his ears when Hernán arrived, expressing his delight and at the same time showing a frightened expression.

He knows in the morning that what he did was wrong.

Hernan ignored the headache and approached Potty with a smile.

“What you said this morning was too dangerous.”

“Sorry…”

“I am Carine’s lover and fiancé. The more you act like that, the more you distance yourself from me.”

Potty sadly shook his head and stood up to be held in Hernán’s arms.
Hernán sighed, unable to push his weak body too hard.

He deliberately spoke a little coldly.

“Please remember that fact and behave wisely. It’s getting harder and harder to calm Carine.”

If she doesn’t bring the good news to Carine, the road to hell will unfold from this afternoon.
Hernan thought so and explained to Potty for a while.

Potty calmly listened to the end and wept.
Her mouth trembled and she spoke mournfully to Hernán.

“Hey, is the gap between the hero and I too big?”

“What are you talking about?”

“Because the hero is powerful both here and outside… Because when He commands, He must obey…”

Of course, there are also those.
However, this problem is not just a problem, but also because Karine is already Hernán’s lover.

“Karine is already my lover. Since you dig between her, of course Karine reacts with a sharp edge.”

“But!”

Potty shouted as she burrowed into Hernán’s arms.

“Why doesn’t she have sex with Hernán, saying she’s a lover? Hernán is in a position to die if he doesn’t have sex!”

“Forties…”

“I don’t even have children… Does the hero really love Hernan?”

Hernán hurriedly looked around.
Fortunately, the other women didn’t appear to be in their respective spaces, and there was no sign of Karine coming out either.

“Forties. Don’t say that It just makes things more complicated.”

“Please…”

Hernan’s chest was wet with Poti’s tears.
But there is no way.

If you accept Forty’s affection now, the problem will not be solved, but will develop into the most serious form.

Perhaps the hero at the top of the ladder of power will never let Potty go.

Only here, she may be safe thanks to her Demon God’s restraint, but her hero can kill her as soon as she ventures outside.
Even illegitimate children will meet a terrible end.

It is a future that Hernan never wants.
So, at least here, we have to push Forty out so everyone is safe.

It was the moment when Hernan tried to appease Potty by explaining that.

In the corner of the table, her life guide, whose presence was disappearing again, shone.

After seeing each other, Poti and Hernán hurriedly went to the guide.

A new phrase was engraved there.

[New rules.]

That phrase came to mind under rule number 3, the use of the right to wish.

[Sufficient progress has been made, so notice the rules to be added. Details will be written after the first birth.]

Is only the rough information added once?

Hernán watched what came to his mind nervously.

[4. Rank within the facility]

Potty’s eyes lit up.

[One. Differential rights are granted according to pregnancy and childbirth.

2. The number of members of the royal rank is 1, and the target is Hernan.]

The contents floated up there and stopped.
More than that seemed to be taught after his first birth.

Hernan let out a moan from his mouth.

Classes?
Are you the king?

It was an unknown story.

Hernan looked to the side.
First of all, I have to finish the conversation with Potty and call another woman.

However, she did something completely unexpected.

Potty was praying.

“Please…”

She murmured over the guidebook, weeping.

“Please help me.”

When people encounter a problem that they cannot solve on their own, they seek God.

Forty is crushed by her old relationship, and power that she cannot break with her own power.

So she begged the only god here.

Hernán saw Poti praying to the Demon God, and felt that her life here had just begun.

The demon prepared the stage and the people who would move on it.
And they finished warming up for their activities.

All that was left was for the characters to run amok as written in the script.

But she can’t play on her own.
We can’t just sacrifice our women and our future children for a capricious god.

Hernan gritted his teeth.
The part where the molars were engaged felt hot, as if it had received heat in advance.
