Cheers…?

I held the Potion in my hand and shook it.

The Potion, shaking this way and that and mixing, glowed with an exquisite color as it received the moonlight. That strange hue… felt peculiar. As if… it was hinting at what was to come.

…Whether I drank this or not… it seemed clear that big and small changes would likely occur around me.

‘Hmm.’

As I tried to recall what happened today… I felt strange.

…Many things happened, but the most memorable one was… naturally, by my companions… Hmm… violated? The word didn’t quite sit right with me.

After a moment of thought… I was simply loved.

I decided to think that way. Although it was a little… rough… I did feel their affection. So… saying I was violated… wouldn’t be right. It would actually be rude.

If I think about it carefully… I also remember giving them permission.

…It’s all Master-nim’s incense’s fault.

I wondered what Master-nim was always making in the corner of the Workshop, but it turns out they were making something so… sinister.

‘…Did they anticipate things turning out this way?’

Letting out a deep sigh, I tapped the Potion bottle.

It was good that the slightly tangled situation… was resolved, but… I have about two complaints.

One is… that I ended up revealing a secret I had never spoken of my entire life.

…Well, there were many others besides me, so it wasn’t particularly unusual, and it was like I was suffering alone, but bitter is bitter.

Rather than a complaint… it’s closer to a grumble.

And actually… there’s a separate, biggest complaint.

…It’s nothing major.

It’s just that… dealing with everyone… all at once… is too agonizing, I suppose….

Honestly, rather than saying I dealt with them, it felt more like I unilaterally lent my body. Although I could feel the depth of their affection… to say we truly connected… isn’t quite right, is it?

Perhaps because of my memories of a past life, group play is a bit… emotionally tiring, I suppose… Anyway, I definitely feel that way.

‘…Shouldn’t I set up a rotation?’

Honestly, I’m only moving now because I drank the Potion, otherwise, I might have been gently laid down on the bed in someone’s arms by now. No, I definitely would have been.

Even as I thought this, I felt a stiffness in my waist, and my lower abdomen ached.

‘If I drink this… maybe I won’t have to do it for a while?’

…Seeing that I’m even having such absurd thoughts, it seems I’m not taking the situation all that seriously either.

From the start… I also had a slight realization that I was already thinking on the premise of drinking it.

Staring blankly at the Potion, I slightly lifted the clothes I was wearing.

A soft-looking, pure white belly was revealed. Moving my hand to touch it… it was soft and moderately squishy, just as I expected.

As I gently stroked it in circles… I had the illusion of hearing a sloshing sound from inside my belly.

‘That can’t be.’

…Although they ejaculated an enormous amount and blocked the entrance… actually hearing a sound is a completely different matter.

Well… I took it to mean that I was that conscious of this fact.

I pulled down the clothes I had lifted, and buried my face in my arms resting on the table.

If I think positively, then….

‘…Pregnancy.’

I don’t think I’ve ever… seriously considered it. Although I had been taking Contraception Potions as a minimal precaution, that was merely to prevent an accident.  

Naturally… I’ve never… thought about giving birth to a child.  

Although the situation ended up like this as if I was swept away, I still… don’t think I’m ready.

Despite that… I also wonder if it’s okay to just drink this and suddenly get pregnant just because I feel like it.

‘Haa….’

All sorts of thoughts floated through my mind.

I never imagined I’d be worrying about having to get pregnant, rather than worrying about impregnating someone.

…Who would have known?

Well, with a body like this… this probably suits it….

For some reason, my mood was fluctuating.

They say it’s like this when you’re pregnant, but I’m not even pregnant yet, and I feel strange.

While it didn’t quite feel real… I was a little scared.

It was different from my body changing.

Meanwhile… click.

I heard the sound of the Workshop door opening.

I wiped the slight tears from my eyes with my sleeve and looked, and familiar faces appeared.

To be precise… two people.

It was Cecil and Master-nim.

Master-nim was holding an outer garment in their hand, and Cecil was holding a tray. White steam rose from the mug on the tray.

Master-nim, who approached slowly, wrapped the outer garment around me and asked.

“Are you alright?”

“…Ah, um… Yes.”

“Alright.”

Master-nim gently pressed my eye area, then pretended not to notice.

…It seemed Cecil didn’t notice it clearly.

“Asha-nim. If you’re cold, please have some of this.”

Cecil, who approached with quick steps, held out the tray to me and… Hmm… offered me Hot Chocolate.

“…Thank you.”

Thinking it was good timing as I had wanted something sweet, I held the mug in my hand. A warm sensation spread to my fingers.

…It felt like their concern for me.

As I took a sip of the dark brown cocoa, sweetness lingered in my mouth.

Feeling my body warm up, I smiled at Cecil.

“You made it well.”

“Hehe… I made it just like Asha-nim makes it for Cecil.”

“I see….”

Meanwhile, Master-nim brought a chair and took a seat next to me. Seeing that, Cecil also huffed and puffed, brought a chair, and sat next to me.

The two of them took the remaining mugs from the tray and sipped.

…I also followed the two and sipped my mug.

The Workshop was quiet.

Only the sound of drinking from the mugs could be heard.

…But, with just that, I felt my agitated heart calm down. Thinking that I wasn’t alone… I somehow felt that everything would be alright.

The body heat radiating from the bodies pressed close to me warmed my heart.

Just then.

A slightly noisy sound was heard.

Then the Workshop door burst open. As I blinked and turned my head, familiar faces appeared again.

“…What are you doing there?”

“Haha… I was just worried, you see.”

“…I, I too.”

“…Asha.”

Claudia, Veronica, and Claire entered the Workshop with awkward expressions. As if they were replaying what had happened in the Bathroom, their faces were slightly flushed.

…The noise I just heard seemed to be the sound of the three of them arguing.

The companions, awkwardly scratching their cheeks, approached quickly and sat at the table. On the opposite side, that is, since they couldn’t push out Master-nim and Cecil who had already taken their spots.

Only then did true silence descend upon the Workshop. And… I also felt various colored eyes looking only at me.

‘Earlier… I was a little scared.’

In the Bathroom… was it because they looked at me with eyes full of desire and affection? My body trembled when I became aware of their gazes, but… what should I say now?

I felt a sense of stability.

Eyes filled with worry.

…No matter whose child I gave birth to first, I felt a belief that they wouldn’t leave.

‘…What’s so good about someone like me?’

Someone who only cares about money and is… a little indifferent to those around them, aren’t I? I was digging around without even knowing they harbored such feelings, so I must be not just a little, but a very indifferent person.

But… if they still like me despite that, what can I do?

Some say that the one who falls in love first loses, but.

…I didn’t particularly feel that way. Although they were the ones who fell in love first, given the circumstances, if you look at me, who ended up caught by them and worrying about Pregnancy… isn’t that right?

The aversion coming from my memories of a past life seemed to have already disappeared.

…In the end, it must mean that I love them too.

The beginning was a little… no, very awkward, but.

I lifted my head, which had been looking at the mug, and looked around, meeting each pair of eyes that were gazing at me.

Eyes shining like jewels.

Once I realized it, my heart pounded fiercely.

…So fiercely that I wondered if my companions could hear it.

Whether they actually heard it or not… my companions’ expressions became a little strange.

I cleared my throat, and put down the mug. Then I picked up the Potion that was in front of me. My companions’ gazes followed.

“…Actually, I’ve been consistently taking Contraception Potions.”

There was no reply. As if to say they would listen to my story, my companions only nodded.

I felt relieved. If they had each said something… I wouldn’t have been able to say what I needed to say because I’d be busy answering them.

I chuckled inwardly, and continued speaking.

“So… the Potion I’m holding right now is… a Potion that will counteract that and make me… that… anyway, make me do that.”

If I think about it… it’s a bit of a mess.

Rather than a proposal, or even asking to be lovers… it’s like, ‘Let’s get pregnant first!’

…I do think it’s an unusual situation, so it can’t be helped, but.

Don’t women consider such things important?

So… even though I’m in a female body now, shouldn’t I, who was originally a man, be the one to do it?

“I’ve been… thinking about whether to drink it or not.”

Suddenly, a thudding sound was heard.

As I blinked, Claudia said she would check and briefly left her seat.

…She returned quickly.

Escorting Her Highness the Princess.

Her Highness the Princess, who had neatly changed her clothes, smiled awkwardly and spoke.

“…It seems I’m too late.”

“…Oh, no. I was just about to say it.”

Her Highness the Princess nodded silently, and sat down.

…They didn’t install some kind of Magic Tool or anything, did they?

I shook my head inwardly.

Seeing that the other companions also came without being told… it seems they all had a vague idea.

Anyway.

…Since everyone happened to gather.

I slowly opened my mouth.

“…I’m thinking of drinking this… and getting pregnant.”

My heart pounded fiercely.

“No matter what the outcome is… can everyone… be with me?”

Saying that, I unwrapped the Potion.

The exquisitely glowing Potion sparkled as if it were a ring.

…It was a slightly strange… proposal.
