Chapter 316: Isn’t Making a Baby Just Alchemy?
*
I had previously met Kim Baekhong to discuss future plans.
Today, it was time to meet another character.
Ding dong.
“Who is it?”
This time it was the old man from next door, Ryu Kang-hyuk.
“That’s me.”
“Shinwoo.”
[……Why does he recognize me?］
‘Of course he would.’
Click.
The front door opened, and Yerim greeted me.
She looked about the same as before.
“Come in.”
“Hello, it’s been a while.”
“Right? How long has it been?”
Aside from her obviously protruding belly.
“Congratulations on your pregnancy. It won’t be long until the baby’s born.”
“Thanks. I really appreciate it.”
[Yerim, look at that belly. Maybe it’s a boy?］
‘No, you crazy woman.’
As if hearing the words of the piece that couldn’t possibly reach her.
Yerim gently caressed her belly with love in her eyes.
“I can’t believe our little princess is sleeping in here.”
[A girl, huh?］
‘Is it a girl?’
That’s a relief.
With a crazy guy like Kang-hyuk, if he had a son who looked just like him, the world wouldn’t be able to handle it.
That would mean there’d be a lack of education, no matter what kind of violence he unleashed.
While I felt slightly relieved, a question suddenly popped into my mind.
I cautiously started speaking to Yerim.
“But didn’t you have a wedding?”
I vaguely knew she was pregnant before, but I hadn’t received a single invitation.
If I had at least gotten contacted, I’d thought about giving a minimal congratulatory gift.
Most women dream of wedding dresses, after all.
[Our Shinwoo has grown up. Thinking about giving a congratulatory gift!］
‘Dumbass.’
Then a foreboding thought raised its head in my consciousness.
“Did you perhaps have it without me?”
“Well…”
Yerim’s slightly awkward expression raised my suspicions.
I suddenly felt a bit upset, wondering if they had gone through it all without me.
Then Yerim cautiously began to reveal the truth.
“He’s had a lot of accidents, so it was a bit difficult to have it.”
“……That makes sense.”
Thank goodness it wasn’t just without me.
Kang-hyuk’s track record has definitely been shocking in many ways.
In quite a bad direction, too.
What followed from Yerim really drove that fact home.
“They say if we have a wedding, I might need to pay more than just a congratulatory gift.”
“I’d probably be one of those.”
“……I’ll apologize instead.”
Surely, I’m also one of the victims of Kang-hyuk.
Some people might not understand what I mean by that.
But I hope you can start recalling the increasingly vague prologue at this point.
[You’re a victim? How so?］
‘…I fell into the ‘granny’ category. That’s really an evil act.’
If that’s the case, then they’ll soon understand the obvious fact that I am a victim.
Showing HAL, the product that concentrates human malice, to someone.
That’s a dangerous act prohibited even on the world’s top platform, Nobelpia.
Its lethal dangers have been recorded even in ancient texts like the Goguryeo Watermelon and the Gosa-gi.
[But aren’t you doing the Nobelpia goroshi as usual?］
‘Today, it’s “our” Nobelpia.’
You might ask why I’m suddenly defending Nobelpia, but I decided to let it slide this time.
Since I passed the novelty icon before I posted anything.
Anyway, having suffered from Kang-hyuk’s HAL means I’m clearly a victim.
[Why does that bastard always show it to me then!!!!!!!］
‘What I do is something I simply have to do.’
Moreover, having a double standard is a virtue a web novel protagonist should possess.
What happens to me is bad.
But what I do is absolutely right.
Anyway, that’s how it is.
Still, the reason I came here isn’t this.
I quickly brought up the main topic.
“By the way, where did Kang-hyuk go?”
“Oh, he went to an adult toy shop.”
“What the f*ck?”
I just couldn’t understand Yerim’s statement.
With a pregnant woman here, and he can’t help but be at that awkward adult toy shop.
I wondered if he was truly out of his mind.
“Is that guy really insane?”
“Oh no, that’s not it.”
“……Huh?”
Yerim continued, trying to clear my misunderstanding.
“He went to get a dildo in his size.”
“……”
“Different varieties based on materials.”
It wasn’t something I enjoyed hearing.
When I shot her a strange glance, Yerim turned slightly red and quietly spoke up.
As if she was embarrassed to say it.
“……I can’t be satisfied with just one.”
“……Stop talking. I didn’t want to know that, f*ck.”
[Should this even be considered NTR?］
‘What kind of NTR are you talking about with a dildo, you b*tch?’
What once felt so sweet about Yerim and Kang-hyuk’s pure love now tasted like something bitter.
Then suddenly, a thought hit me, and I quickly asked Yerim.
“By the way, will you return to the academy right after giving birth?”
“No, I already resigned. I can’t work at that shtty place anymore, fck.”
“……With kids on the way, you should probably speak a bit nicer……”
“Ah.”
Well, at least that relieved me a little.
The future plans would lead to a rather violent process and horrendous results.
So, while I rescued certain departments I was friends with, Yerim hadn’t thought through at the time.
Yet since she mentioned she’s already out, there’s no hesitating further.
“Shinwoo, you played a big part. Thanks to the money I got from you, I can live comfortably.”
“I’m glad to be of help.”
“Really, thank you.”
Since Kang-hyuk wasn’t around, I figured I’d contact him later.
“Then I’ll reach out to Kang-hyuk separately. Take care.”
“Ah, wait. Stay here for a bit.”
“What’s up?”
Just as I was about to leave, Yerim grabbed me.
Then, without answering my question, she hurried into the house.
[Don’t plan on giving me even a small thank-you gift?］
‘Maybe she’ll just give me some vitamins or something?’
After quite a wait, Yerim returned with three small boxes.
“Sorry for the wait.”
“No, it’s alright. But what’s that?”
They looked high-end, but nothing big, just small boxes.
They must have cash or some good quality vitamins inside.
Still, since she thought of me, I decided to take it with gratitude.
Not that I had high expectations, though.
“It’s a female libido suppressant. You have a lot to do, and a lot of girlfriends, right?”
“F*CK!!!! Thank you so much!!!!!”
It was better than I expected.
Tears welled up in my eyes as I expressed intense gratitude.
Yerim waved her hands dismissively and smiled gently.
“It’s nothing. I should show at least this much appreciation.”
“Sniff… thank you, sensei!!!!!”
Really, it was a relief.
I already had four girlfriends.
Three of their libidos were beyond my capability, and even the newly joined Caressy was starting to show signs.
Given those circumstances, the female libido suppressant was my salvation.
“I tried it around last spring and found it really effective.”
“That’s perfect! I’m glad to hear that!”
Then suddenly, an unsettling thought crossed my mind.
“…………Wait a minute. Last spring?”
“Right.”
That thought made me involuntarily tremble.
With a glimmer of hope, I cautiously asked Yerim.
“Yerim, when did you start using this?”
“It was around last spring.”
Responding casually, Yerim confirmed my suspicions.
I shot another sharp question after some reflection.
“So, when were you pregnant?”
“It was around last spring.”
This confirmed everything.
I shot a fierce glare at Yerim.
And I voiced the conclusion I had arrived at.
“Is this… an ovulation inducer?”
“Ha……”
At that moment, Yerim’s laughter slightly changed.
To be precise, her mouth was still smiling, but the atmosphere radiating from her altered.
From warm to the cold awareness of a truth.
“I don’t like perceptive kids like you.”
[Shinwoo… Oppa…］
‘Shut up, you b*tch. You’re giving me PTSD.’
Repaying kindness with malice would never be this way.
No, while it might be welcomed by heroines, right now, it’s absolutely unacceptable.
Especially now, during such an important time.
“How can you play with a human life like this? You’re really a monster?!”
“I never played with it. I ended up creating life, remember?”
“……F*ck.”
While Yerim rubbed her belly and spoke, I couldn’t refute her because she wasn’t wrong.
Yerim truly did create life.
[Look at that. Just look at that. The baby inside her is growing so big.］
‘Are you really leaving now just because it didn’t come in an emote, you b*tch?’
[At least give me an illustration, f*ck!］
Somehow, it felt like other words besides “baby” were about to slip in.
Anyway, I quickly decided to excuse myself.
Staying here any longer felt like it would chip away at my heart.
I roughly said goodbye to Yerim and tried to head home.
“……I’ll be going.”
“Okay, take care. Oh, but take this with you.”
“……Okay.”
Still, I took the ovulation inducer out of courtesy.
Even if it wasn’t needed immediately, it might come in handy someday.
Because even if I refused, those heroines would obviously insist on taking it later anyway.
After returning home,
I opened my mobile phone and sent a message to Kang-hyuk.
Me [Uncle.]
The ‘1’ next to the message disappeared, but there was no reply from him.
He probably didn’t plan to answer.
‘That damn bastard…’
[But since you’re the one asking, bear with it.]
Still, I controlled my anger and calmly typed out a message.
Kang-hyuk played one of the most crucial roles in this plan.
Me [I have a favor to ask.]
The ‘1’ next to the message disappeared again, but this time the situation was a bit different.
Idiot [Go ahead.]
A reply came that I really didn’t expect.
