The next morning, I woke up wondering why, unlike usual, he hadn’t gone out to find food yet.

“Haam… Why aren’t you hunting at this hour… .”

He got up from his boat and spoke to me, but there was no response.

Of course not. After all, what I was cutting was just a bunch of feathers.

“Huh… ?”

His feathers were gathered into a ball.

The round feathers looked like a pillow, perhaps clumped together while I was sleeping.

Come to think of it, there seem to be quite a few feathers rolling around in the nest these days.

Were you collecting them on purpose?

“Phew… .”

Was it an attempt to reassure me while I was left alone while he went hunting?

It seemed like a cute action and I laughed.

Knock knock.

I pressed his feather pillow and it was quite soft.

The colors of his feathers, which were gathered like a pillow, and the feathers on my arm were a harmonious match… .

Huh? Feather?

What… feather?

Feathers were growing all over his arms.

Just like that harpy.

“Huh…?”

I jumped up in panic and my body felt heavy.

Because of that, I stumbled and almost fell as soon as I woke up.

“Ahh… .”

The semen… hasn’t left yet?

I tried to pull it out by pressing my lower abdomen, but it didn’t come out easily for some reason.

“Ah.”

And I realized instinctively.

This isn’t a belly swollen with semen.

This is… a new life.

“Ah… haha… .”

I have borne the child of a harpy in my body.

“It’s okay, Asia! I was a little surprised at first, but I’ve gotten used to it now.”

“That’s right. Don’t worry too much, it’ll only hurt for a little while!”

“Huh, finally you fixed Asia too?”

When I told them this story, they congratulated me sincerely.

Somehow… in the past, everyone tried so hard to get out, but these days, they seem to have become much more detached.

No, rather, did they all already have feathers?

“How does this work?”

“Starting with the arms first, then the legs, and then the torso?”

“Oh my, I’m only as tall as my legs.”

It seemed like everyone’s bodies were turning into harpies.

“That, that’s serious! Can’t it go back to how it was?”

“… That, that’s true.”

“Uh, umm… right?”

“It’s serious, but… um… there’s no way around it for now anyway… .”

Yeah, it’s serious and I’m stuck in this small space anyway, so how can I deal with it?

“Ugh, ugh… Are you, like, plucking feathers?”

“It hurts a little if you just pull it out.”

“Just leave it alone because you’ll get used to it as you watch it.”

Is that so?

I looked down at my arms.

Feathers growing in clusters on a person’s arm.

Honestly, my current impression is that it just feels like I have feathers attached to my arm.

“… Oh, what about the eggs?”

Let’s discuss another issue.

spawning.

I will probably spawn sometime between tonight and tomorrow afternoon.

Because the gestational cycle is roughly 24 hours.

“Hmm… The spawning itself isn’t difficult. They’re round so they come out easily. It’s a bit difficult for slightly healthy ones because the eggs are large… .”

“Actually, the problem is what happens after that. You have to take good care of the eggs until they hatch.”

“Don’t move while sitting with the egg on your butt!”

Oh, I see.

This was truly practical advice.

Rather, I have to hatch eggs… .

“You guys too?”

“Yeah! He’s still sitting on our babies!”

“Oh, baby?”

Karin… Surely you haven’t already lost your mind, have you?

“Huhhuh… When will you be born?”

Serena too… seems to have lost her mind to some extent.

“Haa… I never thought I would become Harpy’s wife.”

Lisa also seems to have accepted it….

Oh, does this mean I don’t have to be tamed?

If everyone is content with their current situation and lives like this, then I don’t need to go out of my way to escape…

… Oh, no. What was I thinking!

I think I’m getting dyed in it too.

“Ugh, ugh… Come to your senses… .”

Yeah, we have to go out.

Even though our bodies are changing… we must not forget our purpose…!

Foodduck foodduck.

“Ber, already… ?”

Normally I would come back later… .

“Keeek!”

“See you tomorrow, Asia.”

“Be healthy and give birth!”

I looked at him approaching me, feeling bewildered at the way they could say such things so calmly.

A monster that resembles a human but has wings.

Since she’s not wearing any clothes, her body is completely visible.

Maybe because I was flapping my wings, my muscles are quite…

What am I supposed to do by evaluating a man’s body?

“Kkieek, kkieeek!”

He brought that strange rainbow-colored food in front of me again.

“… I don’t want to eat it.”

“Kkieek!”

He was angry, but I was firm.

If I eat any more, I might really turn into a harpy!

“Kkieek! Kkieek!”

“Ugh, ugh… I hate it… !”

I shook my head and refused to let him pass it from mouth to mouth.

“Ugh… Ugh… Ah, hmph… um… .”

But eventually, when he forced his lips into my mouth and forced the contents into it, I could only open my mouth helplessly.

“Hah… Huh… Shut… Shut… Chook… .”

side.

My meal ended with a light kiss.

“Haa… T, I shouldn’t keep eating things like this… .”

“Kkieek, kkieeek!”

If this happens… won’t the harpy effect get worse?

I looked at him with worried eyes.

Will I ever have feathers like those?

***

“Hmm… hmm… .”

I had a dream.

I dream of holding wings and playing with young harpies.

Those little kids called me mommy.

But the outside world is still too dangerous.

Because there’s a chance that Lamia or some other evil human hunters might hunt them down.

So, until they can become independent, I cannot let them leave my arms.

I smiled as I held them in my arms as they chirped.

“Our cute baby… ♥”

My precious children.

My precious… that I wouldn’t mind putting in my eyes.

“Ah, oops… !”

My stomach hurts like it’s stabbing me.

When I opened my eyes, I was still in a cozy nest with just the two of us.

Our baby…?

Oh, here it is.

“Kkiek?”

The harpy who had been sleeping opened its eyes at my scream.

“Haa, haa… Ugh, it hurts… !”

My uterus, my uterus feels like it’s going to tear!

They are trying to come out.

It’s a little early, but the time for spawning is imminent.

“Kkeek!”

I unconsciously squeezed his stomach hard.

I couldn’t stand it without holding onto something.

“Haak, haa… Ugh, haa… !”

Is this spawning…?

Who would have thought that my first child would be an egg, not a human?

What, what is easy, Karin…!

It hurts so much!

“Haauk… Ugh… Huh… .”

Something warm was placed on my head as I groaned in pain.

“Ah… .”

He hugged my head with his wings.

“Ugh… It’s because of you… .”

I leaned my head against him, longing for that warmth.

It may be an illusion, but the pain in my stomach feels a little less.

“Haa, haat… I, am coming out… .”

As I continued to exert myself, I felt something slowly being pushed out from within me.

Something is slowly coming out of the womb.

“Haat, haa… .”

I leaned against him and braced my lower abdomen.

“Ugh… .”

My body was desperately trying to push the egg out.

Riding the mountain, the egg tries to see the light of the world.

As Karin said, once it comes out of the uterus, it slides down easily.

“Oh my, damn it… !”

The problem is the entrance.

Now I have to get the egg out… .

“Ahhhh… !”

I screamed.

“Kkieek… .”

“Oh my… Ahhh… !”

Swish.

Something poked its head out of my vagina.

“Huh, huh… !”

Joe, just a little more…!

Sooo.

It’s coming out, it’s coming out, it’s coming out… !

Mulberry!

“Haah, haa… .”

Between my legs, something white and covered in clear liquid came out.

The shell is not that hard.

Is it okay…? It will get stronger soon?

“Kkieeeek! Kkieeeek!”

He flapped his wings in joy.

“Ah, it’s not over yet… .”

There is still one left.

“Ughhh…! Ughhh!”

After another round of contractions, another egg came out of my body.

Pooh!

A slightly smaller egg than before.

Maybe this child is a girl.

“Haa, haa… .”

“Kkieeeek! Kkieeeek!”

He became a father of two and his whole body radiated joy.

“Haa, haa… I, I know you’re happy, but… please wake me up… .”

I feel like my back is going out.

When I reached out my hand, unable to get up on my own, he supported me with his wings.

“Haat, haa… Ah, give me the eggs… .”

He carefully placed the two eggs on his wing and handed them to me.

I took them in both arms and held them in my arms.

“Ah… ♥”

The moment I felt the warmth of that egg, I understood.

Why did those who longed so desperately for escape accept their current situation so meekly?

Why did you choose to live here as a harpy instead of escaping?

“There’s no way I can throw it away… ”

I couldn’t abandon my child, whom I had given birth to with great pain.

“I will definitely… let you be born… .”

I muttered that while hugging my babies.

“Kkieek, kieek.”

“You too… .”

Okay, I guess I have to admit it now.

“Please take care of me in the future, honey… ♥”

Because he is the father of our babies and my husband.

So I chose the path of becoming a harpy.
