Chapter 328

〈 Chapter 330 〉 For Those Who Are ‘Friendly’.

*

As the intense atmosphere calms down,

just at that moment when we find ourselves in a bit of a lull,

Hyeji casually throws out a question.

“Shinwoo, so what are you planning to do now?”

“Ah.”

That immediately piques our interest again.

“Since vacation is still a bit long, are you going to stay home more?”

“No.”

“Why?”

To Hyeji’s query, I quickly responded.

Of course, this would be my last vacation I could enjoy,

but I determined it would be hard to stay at home any longer.

“I have to take care of the two lizards.”

The Lizard Beastman and her younger sibling.

I needed them to stay at my house until at least everything is settled in April.

Although my house isn’t that small, currently Elcia and I are living there.

So, my parents are using the master bedroom, and my room is shared between me and Elcia.

“There’s only one room left.”

Therefore, the only available space for the two Lizard Beastmen is, as it stands,

Choco Hyung’s room, who is currently living alone.

Then, this time, the heroines began to express their doubts one after another.

“Can’t we just cram them into one room? They can sleep together.”

“They should be kept in a cage to begin with! I think putting them in one room is wrong!”

“Shouldn’t we be thankful for this? We’re not stacking them in cages or anything.”

“This is all beastman discriminatory talk, you f*cking bastards!”

At the end, a frustrated Caressy growled, which was a bonus.

Certainly, as the heroines said, there would be no issue keeping the Lizard Beastman and her sibling in one room.

It wouldn’t be a problem to do so.

However, that was not my intention.

“No, we can’t do that.”

“Why not?”

The heroines looked at me with doubts in their eyes.

“If they get all lovey-dovey and start having babies, what are we going to do?”

“Ah. If we’re not careful, it’s not a temporary shelter but a Pokémon breeding house.”

“It would be a problem if they were in a cage, and the numbers multiplied. Getting rid of them wouldn’t be easy.”

“How can you even think about the male and female mating? You still have a long way to go!”

“What the f*ck are these racist bastards thinking of beastmen!!!”

They started to understand my words and each began to come up with their own answers.

Except for Caressy, who was puffing with anger.

In any case, putting them in one room was not a good option.

A male and female with affectionate feelings for each other.

If they were bound by the black thread of family?

Incest could sharply arise.

[…A black thread? Not a red thread but a black one?］

‘The box of proof of family relationship is made of a black thread, right?’

[Oh.］

In the case of biological siblings, the worry could be somewhat eased.

Their genetic information carved in blood is programmed to kill each other.

In other words, siblings will inherently hate each other, making incest difficult.

However, I wouldn’t say it’s entirely impossible.

The form of great love that overcomes instincts sometimes exists.

This can be termed as an incest pure love of the so-called intrafamilial marriage.

[No matter what, I still think real incest is impossible.]

‘Really, wait until you see the illustrations of Ria Perkus again.’

[……It might be possible. If it’s that level, they could definitely be forgiven as sinners.]

‘Stop spreading false accusations. Ria hasn’t done anything wrong except make Juji angry.’

However, incest is such a sensitive topic.

So much so that a work that was on a tremendous winning streak

vanished into the mist of rankings.

And that, by the hands of Nobelpia, no less.

Of course, some will say it was an inevitable action.

Yet, it was an act that was far too uncharacteristic for a king of the underground.

A king of the basement fearing censorship is truly disheartening.

[…Are we going to vanish without a trace if this goes on?］

‘At least we’ll receive a lawsuit notice and not just die, right?’

Let’s take a moment to think about what Nobelpia is.

A leading platform for BL (Bug Love) like ‘Parisexer’

and the innovative work ‘The Protagonist and I (Actual Data Collection)’ can handle the abyss.

It doesn’t stop there.

19+ works like Daiti and Maede Elf were easily advertised to influencers.

Even crazier stories like Jesus’ paradise hell could be featured.

Recently, the King of the Basement boldly advertised the Petrification Hero!

Yet, he couldn’t handle a single word like incest and ran away.

The deep anguish that oscillates between the instincts and rationality of two individuals.

And fearing to showcase the profound realization of love through that anguish from incest.

No matter how scary it is, I can’t imagine our king would tuck his tail.

[Let’s just hope they f*cking tuck their tails! Are we crazed dogs that every time there’s a mess?!!!］

‘What nonsense. Look at the Caressy emoticon. Did we tuck our tails too?’

[……Isn’t that just a tail becoming a dick?］

In response to Peace, I calmly spoke up.

‘You’re right. We’re f*cked.’

[Sh*t.]

However, with pseudo-incest, the story slightly changes.

A love between beings without shared blood.

Or a deeper connection formed in a slightly different manner within families.

Of course, this is often mocked as not being real incest.

They wonder how that could possibly make sense.

Desperately trying to create plausibility while breaking all credibility.

It’s a refuge for cowards who turn their backs on true incest.

Still, by compromising with reality, one can taste a different kind of depravity.

[You’ve packaged it gloriously until now, and in the end, you just wanted to enjoy the depravity!］

‘It’s not a story anyway, so can’t I enjoy a bit of depravity, you b*tch.’

Moreover, if my intuition is correct, the Lizard Beastman and her sibling don’t seem to be real siblings.

So they might be half-siblings or

maybe siblings through adoption.

Or even the classic cousin angle commonly found in incest stories.

Anyway, it’s better to refrain from developing a pseudo-incest angle.

Honestly, I don’t care what kind of relationship they have.

At least in my house, it’s a no-go.

No matter what, I didn’t want to see it.

[Why did a guy who supports sibling incest run around messing with elves?]

‘That place crossed a lot of lines, and at the wrong time, it caught my eye, you dog bastard.’

[You f*cking hypocrite!!!]

Though it was a lengthy discussion, ultimately I had no intentions of staying at home any longer.

I needed to give separate rooms to the Lizard Beastman and her sibling to prevent any potential incest.

“Anyway, I won’t stay home any longer. Today will probably be the last.”

Did they interpret my words as asking where I could go next?

Hyeji, Ayeon, and Caressy immediately began to express their situations.

Contain a bit of negative sentiments.

“My dad still thinks it’s a bit much to have you sleep over… It feels like my heart is going to break.”

“The re-establishment of the Beastman Kingdom is progressing remarkably quickly, but it’ll still be tough over there.”

“Dear, I’m sorry. It’s rather difficult to visit right now.”

“Uh, seriously?”

In the cases of Hyeji and Caressy, I had somewhat anticipated it.

Hyeji’s father recognized me this time,

but fundamentally, he doesn’t really seem to like me.

Besides, we were the ones who turned the Beastman Kingdom into ruins.

However, Ayeon being unable to stay was unexpected.

After all, isn’t her hotel more than a few?

I couldn’t understand why she said there was no place to stay.

“Why? Can’t you stay quietly?”

“Right now is the evaluation and censorship period for advancement.”

“Ah.”

Finally, Ayeon’s words about not being able to stay started to make sense.

For succubi, the advancement evaluation and censorship period is a very sensitive matter.

In particular, the advancement evaluation and censorship period are not independent; they are intertwined.

At that moment, the results are more crucial than ever.

Here, the final decision-maker is Ayeon’s mother, the Succubus Queen.

But what if we end up staying at one of those hotels?

It will inevitably affect the evaluation of the hotel and its management.

Even if we had no intentions of doing so at all.

Although it could be negative or positive influence, we can’t be certain.

At least, we need a minimum of fairness, hence Ayeon brought it up.

“I’m sorry. Whether oneself or your husband goes to a specific place, it could result in biased judgment.”

“It can’t be helped.”

Just as I let out a sigh of slight disappointment,

Elcia swiftly spoke up.

“I’ll just follow my husband!”

“Yeah. We have to go together.”

Even though there was no place to go, she had to say that.

“To begin with, the Forest of Elves has become like a bald mountain for me!!!”

“……I hope it doesn’t get worse than that.”

It was best not to say more about that.

“So, Shinwoo, where are we going now?”

“There’s only one place.”

[Where? Bertus?］

‘No, you b*tch.’

In the end, due to the process of elimination,

the only remaining place was one.

“Let’s go to the Academy.”

It was the Academy.
