After hearing and understanding Olivia 1’s sincerity, I didn’t fully understand, but I came to know the motive behind her actions.

To understand, I could understand.

“Just put yourself in their shoes.”

She went a bit overboard to get the heroines’ attention. To put it that way, I could understand Olivia 1’s sudden outburst as well.

“You’re ultimately number 2. Let’s be friends.”

“…I’ll handle that myself.”

Olivia quickly returned to her blunt self. Her gaze towards me was quite sharp.

Her rapidly changing appearance resembled Tina.

Bloodlines don’t disappear. I thought about that again.

“If I have a baby… Would they resemble me?”

It’s ambiguous whether I should like that or not.

“I hope they resemble Dennis.”

There’s no benefit in them resembling me. It feels like I’d unnecessarily feel sorry.

I just hope they inherit their mother’s traits greatly.

Dennis is handsome too. The children won’t be obstacles in the future.

“…It’s an unrealistic fantasy.”

I just wanted to be happy for a moment.

I tried to shake off the bitter aftertaste and returned to the inn. Olivia 1 followed behind me.

Clatter, clatter-.

The inn was noisy. The victims who were assigned rooms were downstairs in the hall.

“Thank you so much for saving us.”

They thanked once again. After Charlotte and Nine, they also nodded at me.

“I just did what needed to be done.”

I didn’t come here specifically to save all of you. Saying that would sour the mood.

So, I kept quiet.

“Thanks to you, we survived.”

Even though we suffered from the goblins, at least we lived. It’s better than dying.

Even if I’m pregnant with a goblin’s child.

“Rest comfortably. Recover your health first, and… deal with other issues later….”

People in the hall glanced around one by one. All eyes focused on one person. I felt like I was being watched for no reason.

Every time I saw a pregnant woman with a swollen belly, I felt crushed.

“….”

Olivia 1 even shut her mouth. She could sense the atmosphere in the inn’s hall.

“I’m fine.”

The pregnant woman tried to ease the awkward atmosphere. But it didn’t feel like it would resolve anything.

“As someone else said, surviving is what matters….”

Given the world we live in, being kidnapped by monsters seems to happen quite frequently. Maybe that’s why.

I tried to pass over it as casually as possible.

I don’t know the true feelings of the parties involved, but for now, pretending not to know seemed appropriate.

“Aren’t you all hungry?”

Did they manage to eat while being held captive by the goblin tribe? The monster babies couldn’t have taken care of them properly.

Just then, a rumbling sound was heard. The pregnant woman’s belly was particularly large.

It was fortunate that the alarm clock rang for everyone simultaneously. Otherwise, it would have caused a commotion.

“Alright, I guess I need to show my skills!”

Dennis, who was at the counter, rolled up his sleeves and headed into the kitchen. Lisa followed her.

Olivia 2 hung around near the kitchen, seeming like she wanted to help Dennis.

“Pfft.”

As the warm and cozy air filled the hall inexplicably, the victims chuckled softly.

“Enjoy your meal!”

When Dennis cooks, Lisa serves. A formation of abundance, Formation A.

If Dyke, who exposes the truth, is added, it becomes the complete Formation A.

Me helping with serving is Formation B. If I stick to the kitchen, it’s Formation C.

“It’s been a while since Formation C.”

“…Are we going to stop attaching those weird names?”

“Why. It’s fun.”

“….”

If you don’t expect, you won’t be disappointed.

Dennis no longer expects. Naturally, there is little sense of disappointment. Just serving up poorly roasted chicken like a pathetic fool.

“It’s delicious….”

The goblin victims each grabbed a chicken leg and took big bites. With their mouths smeared with grease, they quickly devoured the meat.

Although they pretended otherwise, it seemed like they were quite hungry.

“They probably starved for days surviving on goblin semen… So, this is a natural response.”

Women devouring their food eagerly. Plates were soon empty, the meat was gone.

Lisa and Olivia No. 2 swiftly moved to clear the empty plates and refill the meat.

It seemed like all the meat stored in the inn would be consumed. Their voracious appetites were immense.

Even if it were me, I can understand why they would eat like that…

“Was it our fault for not purchasing enough in the first place?”

That interpretation could work as well.

Hmm…

For now, he focused on feeding the victims to their hearts’ content. Squatting in front of the hearth, he turned the skewers while roasting the chicken.

Has he ever been this busy before?

“It’s been a while since I’ve broken a sweat.”

Still, he was satisfied. Seeing everyone eating so greedily now after being hesitant earlier made him feel proud and satisfied.

“If anyone wants to properly wash up, the bathhouse at the back of the inn is available.”

They washed up in the goblin enclave. But that was really just a quick rinse. Calling it a shower was almost laughable.

There would surely be a lingering stickiness on their bodies.

Some might want to scrub themselves clean. So, he informed them that bathing was also an option.

“…Then…”

One of the victims cautiously stood up.

“There are soaps in the bathhouse. Shampoo and body wash, everything is there.”

This is the NTR Tsukuru adult game world. Several items seemed out of place for the era.

Shampoo, body wash, condoms, dildos, onaholes, and more.

“Could dildos be a possibility?”

I heard that even things like dildos were created earlier than expected. They were considered essential items for men fighting in wars.

When one person gathered the courage, other women also rose up and headed towards the bathhouse. I had to let go now. I couldn’t follow them all the way to the bathhouse to take care of them.

“Phew, finally catching my breath.”

“You’ve worked hard.”

“What hard work? You had it tougher, sis.”

In front of the victims, such words couldn’t be said. One had to be careful not to cause any unintentional hurt.

Even a single word required heavy filtering before being spoken.

“Dyke.”

Olivia No. 1 approached me. No. 2 hurriedly ran behind Dennis and hid.

“Why?”

“That pregnant woman from earlier has a magic spell that could be useful against goblin offspring.”

“….”

There was something oddly lively in Olivia No. 1’s words. Should I call it vitality?

It didn’t seem like a particularly good magic…

“You must not kill.”

“Am I some crazed killer to you? That’s not what I’m suggesting.”

“Then?”

“We’re not killing the pregnant woman, just the goblin inside her.”

“The goblin?”

“Abortion. I can handle it with magic.”

In this world, abortion might seem easy, but it’s not at all.

“Because it’s a setting to prevent heroines from having abortions.”

Touching the child in the womb puts the woman’s life at risk. It’s as if the souls of the mother and the fetus are connected.

Therefore, abortion is impossible.

Even if the protagonist Dyke knows about the heroine’s pregnancy, he cannot resort to abortion.

“Is it possible?”

“Yes.”

Olivia 1st confidently said. Seeing her confidence, it seemed like it could really be possible.

“Well, then just do it quickly.”

It might be a little apologetic, but there could be an experience of giving birth to a monster baby in Goblin Bulwark. If you stay there for a long time, you can’t help but give birth once or twice.

However, that doesn’t mean it won’t have an impact. This is not a problem that can be solved by adaptation.

It’s better to avoid if you can. It’s a problem with a predetermined answer.

“I have something to ask the person involved.”

“What are you asking? Just do it…”

The feeling is intense.

“You’re not trying to tease me with strange words again, are you?”

As she asked, Olivia 1st frowned at me as if questioning whether she looked like that kind of person. Her gaze was very fierce.

“Wasn’t it like that for me?”

Anyway, there is a way. I’m thinking of asking about abortion-related matters now.

“Okay. If there’s a way, why didn’t you tell me sooner?”

“….”

“Do it quickly. That person must be having a hard time too.”

“Don’t rush because of that.”

Olivia 1st let out a sigh.

“Anyway. Even if the mana fluctuates greatly around the bathhouse, don’t think it’s strange. I’m telling you this to inform you.”

“Ah, okay.”

If that’s the case.

Olivia 1st left the inn. And about 30 minutes later.

1st and the women returned.

“?”

However, the pregnant woman’s belly was still full.

“What’s going on?”

I approached Olivia 1st and asked for the reason. She smiled lightly and replied.

“She just wants to give birth.”

“Why?”

“If you receive an abortion spell, you become unable to have a baby.”

I looked at the pregnant woman. She smiled gracefully and nodded her head.

“I appreciate your consideration… But still, maybe someday I’ll meet a good person and be able to have a child… I don’t want to regret it then. I’d rather endure a little today.”

The woman had already made up her mind. To give birth to a goblin baby─.

At that moment.

“Oh…. Ahh…!”

The woman suddenly clutched her stomach. As if waiting for the threatened goblin life, she began to kick her belly.
