Chapter 69

〈 Episode 69 〉New Party Members

Soon, the party began their meal. Perhaps because of the babies in her belly, Asha ate more than usual.

“Mom! This is really delicious!”

“Really? I’m glad you like it.”

‘I’m glad I had Justitia’s sauce.’

Asha, having tasted the sauce once when she had the opportunity to eat Justitia’s cooking, had already obtained the recipe. Thus, Asha, Lucia, and Boar were captivated by the magic of the well-cooked seasoned roast, successfully finishing the large piece of meat without leaving a scrap. After the meal, Asha smiled as she watched Boar rummaging through the ashes with his hooves, looking regretful.

“Ugh, that was good! Why? Do you want more? I’ll make it for you again next time.”

Oink, oink.

Asha, who had eaten so well, soon began to feel the pull of her pregnant belly.

“Ugh… As expected, there’s always a price to pay after eating… I wish I could give birth quickly.”

Asha’s belly had grown even larger in the meantime. She could feel that the time for her to give birth was near. Just then, Asha’s eyes met those of Boar, who was looking at her belly.

“Why are you anxious? Don’t worry, I’ll give birth just fine.”

Asha smiled at him.

As if in response to those words, Asha woke up in the early hours of the morning with a sudden pain.

“Ah, ahhh!”

Asha screamed in agony as if her vulva and belly skin were tearing apart.

“Mom!”

Lucia, who had been fast asleep, jumped up at Asha’s scream and rushed to her side. Boar, who had been snoring, had also opened his eyes and was looking at her.

[Pain Relief has been activated.]

‘It hurts! Even though it’s activated!’

Despite the message, Asha continued to suffer from the pain as if her abdomen was about to burst. Her legs were already soaked with ruptured amniotic fluid.

“Hng… It hurts…”

“Um… Mom, I can give you a painkiller, but the babies might be born strangely.”

“Then don’t… I can endure it for a little longer, ack!”

“Ugh… Mom, I’ll take off your clothes first!”

“Hng…”

Lucia quickly took off Asha’s panties. Her exposed cleft was already wide open, but the hole was getting bigger and bigger. The head of a baby hog, with its eyes closed, was briefly visible inside. Asha’s body had already undergone numerous changes, so her vulva wouldn’t tear, but the pain of her pelvis twisting to give birth was difficult for Asha to bear.

“Ah, ahhh!”

Asha screamed incessantly each time her cleft expanded. However, she felt a sense of reality from the pain that she was giving birth. Pain had always been a companion to childbirth, even when giving birth to Tentacles or insects, and pain was as familiar to Asha as giving birth itself. Lucia dragged Asha out of the tent where they had been sleeping, spread a blanket on the floor, and began preparing for the birth.

After more than 30 minutes of labor, Asha’s vaginal opening was completely open, easily large enough to fit two fists. Once the passage was secured enough for the hogs to be born, the babies, who had been blocked by the cervix, began to emerge from the birth canal. As the baby hogs, which were overwhelming even for Asha, pressed against her vagina and began to come out, she screamed as if she were being torn apart.

“Ah, ahhh!”

“The, the nose is out! Push!”

“Hng, hng! Hng?!”

Lucia played the role of midwife from the side with her own familiarity. In response to Lucia’s signal, Asha gritted her teeth and pushed again. Pushed by the contractile force of the uterus, the baby slowly came out of the hole. Asha almost clenched her thighs in the sudden pleasure she felt in the pain, but she endured and continued the birth.

“Hng?!”

Asha almost fainted when the baby hog’s torso got stuck in the middle of her vaginal opening, but she barely endured with her daughter’s encouragement and was able to give birth to the first hog.

“Ah, ahaha… I finally gave birth.”

“Ugh…”

Lucia, who had received the baby hog from Asha’s belly, cut the umbilical cord connected to her with the edge of her hand. Asha trembled as she barely held the baby that Lucia handed her. The baby hog, whose soft fur was neatly laid down, was a little gaunt from squeezing through Asha’s narrow passage, but it was visibly plumping up quickly. Asha’s eyes met those of the baby, who had opened its eyes in the meantime. The baby wriggled a little as its eyes met hers.

“Hng… How cute…”

Asha, who had been limp after giving birth, turned pale again as her belly began to ache again.

‘There was a second one!’

“Ahhh!”

Although it was less than the first birth, Asha was able to give birth to all three baby hogs after another arduous struggle.

“Haa, haa…”

Asha, who had given birth to all three babies, didn’t even have the strength to lift a finger. The uterus, which had been forced to push continuously, trembled as if it were broken inside.

‘Hng… I’m never going to give birth to those kinds of children again…’

Asha, who had given birth to the hogs and removed all the placentas connected to the umbilical cords, closed her eyes as she watched Boar, who had been watching her give birth, licking the babies soaked in amniotic fluid with his tongue.

“Ugh…”

Asha, who had fallen asleep as if she had fainted while breastfeeding the two babies, woke up in the middle of the day. She struggled to open her eyes and found two baby hogs and Lucia next to her. Asha smiled at the sight of all three of them sleeping soundly.

“They’re sleeping well…”

Asha still had a throbbing pain in her lower abdomen, but her vulva, which had been wide open as if it had been a lie that she had given birth to the hogs in the early morning, was tightly closed. Since she couldn’t see her vulva in detail herself, Asha checked it by creating a small puddle and looking at her reflection in it.

“Come to think of it, a lot of things were popping up…”

Asha looked at the messages she hadn’t been able to check yesterday.

[Seedbed Constitution has been activated.]

[Acquire the characteristics of your offspring. Acquired natural strength, strong bones.]

[Skill changes due to meeting special conditions.]

[Seedbed Constitution skill has been changed to Cradle of Species skill.]

“Wow…”

Asha was stunned by the feast of messages that greeted her.

“Hehehe… I think it’s no joke!”

Asha checked the newly acquired skills with an excited face. The natural strength and strong bones she gained from giving birth to Boar’s babies literally gave her more strength and stronger bones.

In particular, strong bones was a skill that strengthened all the joints, allowing her to withstand greater shocks or excessive movements. Originally, it was the secret to how Hog, a giant Boar, supported his heavy body, but it was applied differently to Asha. Asha picked up a dry piece of wood that was lying next to her as a test.

“Hup!”

Crack

As she put strength into her grip, the thick piece of wood cracked and eventually broke into pieces.

“Awesome!”

Asha couldn’t control the corners of her mouth from rising naturally and grinned. Excited, she picked up a small pebble.

“Let’s see, hup! Ugh…”

Even though Asha pressed hard on the pebble, small pebbles fell off, but the pebble didn’t break.

“Ah, ahaha… It would be too much to ask for even this. But this is great!”

Asha also checked the Seedbed Constitution skill, which had changed to the name Cradle of Species.

“Justitia said that I have the highest potential for growth… Even the skills that are given secondarily are amazing.”

Asha’s skills had been almost fixed for some time. Her eyes widened when she saw that her strength, which had been 29 until recently, had been strengthened to 36.

“Wow…”

Durability had also increased to 29.

“Come to think of it, if you only look at the stats, it’s completely a tanker stat…”

It would have been a failed distribution in a game, but it was a necessary thing here because it was obviously not a game. Asha turned her eyes away from the stats and checked the Cradle of Species that she had originally wanted to check.

“Cradle of Species. Makes it easier to get pregnant, give birth, and raise children from many races… No, it’s enough now? What do you mean by giving birth better?”

An aphorism flashed through Asha’s mind.

‘If there’s a good skill, there must be a bad skill… That’s how balance is maintained…’

“Ugh, ugh…”

Asha became depressed, wrapped her knees, and sat down. Boar, who had been watching her laugh and cry alone next to her, approached her slyly.

“Huh? What’s wrong?”

Oink

Asha found a large fruit that Boar was holding in his mouth. She was taken aback by the heavy weight of the fruit she received.

“Ugh… It’s no joke… Did you bring this for me to eat? Ah, I get it!”

Oink

Unable to resist Boar’s urging to push the fruit into her mouth, Asha hugged it.

“Let’s see… Lucy! Let’s eat!”

“Mom?”

Lucia, who had woken up early in the morning to help Asha give birth, woke up from among the baby hogs in a daze. Asha was amazed by her daughter’s silver hair, which was neatly arranged without a single knot, even though she had just woken up.

In contrast to Lucia, Asha’s appearance, who had gone through a commotion in the early morning, was naturally a mess. Boar, worried that the smell would spread around her lower body, which was stained with amniotic fluid, had licked it all up and eaten it, but sweat and blood were still smeared all over Asha’s body. Asha shuddered at the sight of the blood clots on her arms.

“Ugh… I’m a mess. Let’s all wash up first!”

Asha scooped up water from the puddle she had just made and washed her body first. Then, when Lucia, the baby hogs, and Boar were all washed, the floating water was mixed with all sorts of filth such as blood, dust, and grime, creating a terrible stench.

“Ugh…”

Asha quickly threw the contaminated water out of sight and smiled at the clean party.

“You look great! I’m hungry, let’s eat quickly!”

“Okay!”

Asha began to eat the fruit that Boar had given her, as well as other food she had collected the day before. Asha, who had given birth to the hogs yesterday until she was exhausted, devoured the things piled up in front of her, unlike usual.

“Umm, munch, munch…”

“Mom, are you very hungry?”

“A little?”

Seeing Asha eating not only the first fruit she received but also other things, Boar pushed the things piled up in front of him. She didn’t refuse and ate them all up.

“Ah, ahh… That’s good…”

After finishing the meal, Asha lay back on the blanket, full and drowsy. As she was about to fall asleep, she looked at the source of the small cry.

Squeak, squeak

Asha saw the baby hogs getting up and coming towards her.

“You’re already walking. Why? Are you hungry?”

Asha lowered her shoulder straps, loosened her front, and lifted the two hogs to her chest. As the hogs sucked on her nipples, milk soon began to come out of her chest. Asha felt a tingling sensation as the babies sucked so hard that her nipples were numb.

“Ah, ahh! A little, a little softer…”

The hogs, held in both arms, ate breast milk endlessly as much as their heavy size. Asha was only able to put down the satisfied babies after breastfeeding for more than 30 minutes until her nipples were numb.
