Ch.620Can You Hear the Sound of Rising Birth Rates? (1)
by fnovelpia
After that ridiculous mess, the population in my territory suddenly exceeded 15,000 and reached 20,000… no, actually.
It surpassed 20,000, growing large enough to rival even the “major” clans.

<Holy Hourglass Empire Official Chat Room>
<Notice: If there are disputes now, go to the village chief instead of me -by Icarus>
-[The notice changed]
-[I heard 20,000 people filing complaints to Icarus was too much for him to handle]
-[No, he said before he could manage when people came in groups of a few dozen at most]
-[Ohh]
-[But now with 12 strongholds joining simultaneously, thousands of users are coming in, so complaints have increased like crazy too]
-[LOLOLOLOL]
-[Thought he was an emperor, turns out he was just a community center employee~]
-[Civil Servant Simulator On]

Just as they were chattering in the territory chat room, with the sudden increase in users, complaints skyrocketed.
At first, I tried to handle it all somehow, but after realizing it was impossible for me to process alone,
I hurriedly passed the workload to other “village chiefs,” somehow managing to process that overwhelming flood of complaints.
After dealing with everything by delegating tasks like that,
And experiencing the invasion of the anti-empress faction, as well as the large-scale incorporation-invasion(?) of strongholds as mentioned above,
Once the chaotic situation ended, I realized it was time to check on things I had postponed.
The first thing I confirmed was, of course, the “resource supply status” that changed when numerous strongholds came under my control.
“Commander, about the newly incorporated strongholds.”
“Yes, now that they’re mine, I should be getting more resources, right?”
“That’s right. Thanks to them, we’re now receiving 25 million minerals and 7 million rare resources weekly.”
“……Oh……”
After confirming that the resource income rate was absolutely insane—enough that we’d have surplus even if we doubled our weekly resource sales in the trading market—
“Alright, let’s increase the market listings by 2.5 times then.”
“Yes, sir.”
I decided to boost resource sales and save up to 1 million gold.
While handling various other miscellaneous tasks, I was opening the gallery again to investigate something VERY important…
Namely, information about the “waah-waah” babies currently crying in the medical room incubators.
After all, we’re now entering the fourth year since users possessed their bodies, and I couldn’t be the only one who had a child during this time.
With gorgeous men and women swarming around, who would flirt with you if you just maintained proper goodwill,
How could ordinary users like myself resist that…
Thinking about it that way, I might even be late to the party. So I searched the gallery for “baby” or “childcare” related posts and dug around…
A moment later.

There are way more than I thought
The baby in the pic is mine
It used to just wiggle around unable to move, but now it started crawling and it’s so adorable I’m going crazy
Hehehe
Comments
-[I bet at least 10% of all users already have at least one child]
-˪[Is that so?](Author)
-˪[No, not 10% but 30%]
-˪[Oh damn](Author)
—————————————–
‘What? 30% of users have already had children?’
I realized there were far more users who had “children” than I expected, giving me a very strange feeling.
And since some users’ genders changed depending on the physical state of the “Commander” they possessed…

This is my child that I gave birth to through my own pain
Is this what maternal instinct feels like
Mothers are amazing
Comments
-[???]
-[This is definitely TMI]
-[Forced TS possession for less than 4 years and already progressed to childbirth…]
-˪[Haven’t we been here for over 4 years now?]
-˪[It takes 10 months from pregnancy to childbirth, mister;;]
-˪[He might not know that, butthole]

I’ve had 10 children with this
I think I have a talent for childbirth
Going to have serious fun with another superhuman today, stay tuned
Comments
-[???]
-[Damn, how many did you give birth to?]
-[Reverse Chair King gay]
-[Succubus gay]
-[Dude, you used to be a 190cm+ manly man, how did you end up like this]
-˪[My inner femininity has awakened, forget who I was in the past](Author)
-˪[LMAO]
—————————————–
The tiny minority of users who were originally women moved around with amazing handsome men and had children.
Users who were forced into TS discovered their true selves(?) and experienced genuine joy(???).
There were all sorts of unexpected situations that gave viewers indescribably strange impressions.
And what was even more mind-blowing than that “10-child mother” was that there was someone even more extreme.

Title: Found the user with the most children verified on the gallery so far
Author: Anonymous
Content: [Screenshot of a post from a user claiming to have 25 children]
It’s 25 children
The really scary part is, as you can see in the original post, this user didn’t reveal their gender
The writing style seems male
But whenever they post verification, their hands look female
Comments
-[What]
-[What does that mean?]
-˪[It means they had 25 children in 4 years of possession, when each takes 10 months to produce]
-˪[You bastard, at least say “birth” not “produce”]
-[Isn’t it a guy? If it’s a trap style, the hands would look feminine]
-˪[They’re subtly different, according to someone who’s into hands](Author)
-˪[How do you know that, bro?]
-[That’s impossible. If this is true, they would have had quintuplets or sextuplets each pregnancy]
-˪[That would kill a person]
-˪[Due to system protection, you have to give birth naturally, and having more than quintuplets would burst your stomach]
-˪[I see]
—————————————–
“Hmm… impressive.”
“Everyone seems to have plenty of energy and strength.”
Whether the person in question was male or female was unknown, but what mattered was that surprisingly many users had sex with superhumans or NPCs and dramatically increased the birth rate.

But Mona Lisa looks like she’s about to die
Seems even system protection can’t handle excessive milking
Comments
-[She’s become a skeleton]
-[She’s been wrung dry]
-[Squeeze~ Squeeze~]
—————————————–
Seeing that Mona Lisa, whose relationship with other factions was most similar to mine, proudly announced her childbirth news,
I realized I didn’t need to hide this either and decided to make an announcement with confidence.
