Late night.

“…”

Silence lingered in the inn’s hall.

Ingrid, Karin, Eru, and Jung Yu-shin were sitting around a table.

Ingrid returned with a cold, expressionless face. However, a faint blush subtly lingered on her cheeks.

“···So you became an Incubus. Is that what you’re saying?”

“A Half Incubus. Yes.”

At Jung Yu-shin’s answer, Ingrid slightly opened her cherry-like lips, then closed them again.

“The image I saw was made of Yin energy?”

“Yes.”

Ingrid shook her head.

“I thought you had brutally violated my daughter? I was really surprised.”

“Ah, I see.”

“Karin is a child who has been working hard with the dream of leading the Beastmen Union. She has rejected all the capable men who liked her. It’s hard to see her playing with fire now. Karin’s resolve is that strong.”

“…”

Karin silently glared at the table with a reddened face.

Meanwhile, Eru was restless, wearing a tearful expression.

Ingrid turned her head and looked down at Eru.

“This child is?”

“An Incubus. A Dark Elf acquaintance introduced him, and you can think of him as a teacher.”

“You wish to handle Yin energy?”

Ingrid immediately delved into the core issue.

Jung Yu-shin dealt with it smoothly.

“I’m learning about Yin energy to prevent unwanted accidents in advance.”

“I see. But the image you showed me···.”

Ingrid swallowed the rest of her words.

‘It’s not like that at all?’

Whatever Skar might do, imagination was free.

Didn’t she sometimes have lewd fantasies herself?

What more needed to be said about a Barbarian in their twenties, overflowing with sexual desire?

But the extent was unavoidable.

An image of her daughter pinned under Skar’s muscular body, unable to resist, making strange moans she had never heard before.

She had raised her strongly, but her face melted, panting expression was shocking.

Even thinking about it again made her stomach churn.

‘Stop it!’

Even if Skar was a devil, she believed he wasn’t the kind of man to toy with women by force.

Or was he?

Now she didn’t know what was what.

Clearly, it was an issue she had to watch with wide eyes.

Ingrid steeled her resolve, crossing her legs and strongly tightening her thighs that were gradually opening.

The small-area panties dug deeply into the inside of her vulva, but Ingrid couldn’t be conscious of it.

“Eru, was it?”

“Y-yes…”

“Go up to the second floor for a while.”

Eru looked at Jung Yu-shin’s face.

“Go up. Rest comfortably today.”

“Yes.”

As soon as Eru’s permission fell, he got up from his seat, bowed politely, and quickly went up to the second floor.

A brief silence followed until Eru’s door closed.

Thud.

As the sound of the door closing from the second floor rang out, Jung Yu-shin carefully opened his mouth.

“But what brings you here? I heard the Committee’s shift was over. Weren’t you returning to the tribe?”

Ingrid’s eyebrows furrowed.

She didn’t like Skar changing the subject like a snake shedding its skin.

Still, she had received a massage last time, so she had to answer.

“You must have heard the rumors on the street?”

Jung Yu-shin stroked his chin.

Rumors?

Ingrid was no ordinary figure. She was the representative of the Beastmen Union. That is, one pillar responsible for the core of the Eastern Union.

If so, there were only rumors related to the Empire.

He vaguely remembered hearing rumors that the Western Empire’s army was gathering on the Eastern Union’s border.

He already knew the story that the Western Empire and the Eastern Union had been at odds for a long time, so it wasn’t sudden news.

“The Empire?”

Ingrid nodded.

“That’s right. I don’t know if the purpose is invasion or if they’re plotting something else. It’s the Eastern Union’s turn to gather.”

“In Labyrinth City?”

“Yes.”

Of all places, it had to be Labyrinth City.

Ingrid immediately read Jung Yu-shin’s expression.

“It’s convenient. Dwarves, Elves, Gnomes, Humans, Beastmen, and so on, various races live together, and there’s no other city that’s this harmonious. It’s also moderately close to each capital. We can’t ignore the Demon Queen Lilith either.”

Jung Yu-shin listened well, then frowned.

“Why is Lilith suddenly coming up?”

“Because Lilith is controlling ‘powerful’ demons. If you have to put it that way, she’s one of the pillars of the Eastern Union.”

“There don’t seem to be any scary demons though?”

Ingrid wore a bitter expression.

“Skar, the darkness in the Eastern District is deeper than you think. Don’t judge rashly.”

“I understand.”

Ingrid nodded and opened her mouth again.

“The King of the Lionel Kingdom, the Queen of the Elf Kingdom, the King of the Dwarves, Lilith, and the representative of the Spirit Order will all gather.”

“Listening to that, it seems like a big deal.”

“That’s right.”

“But why did you come to this inn?”

“···I wanted to stay quietly.”

Ingrid glanced at Karin and answered.

“You could have gone to the Central District? You could have stayed in the inner castle, but why bother···.”

“Doesn’t Astaroth commute between the Labyrinth and the inner castle for work? There’s a person in charge, so I can’t wait there in advance.”

‘It’s also suffocating.’

She swallowed the rest of her words.

The stuffy inner castle didn’t suit Ingrid’s personality.

Jung Yu-shin tilted his head.

“Isn’t there a forest not far from here? I don’t remember the name well, but I heard that a high-ranking person is staying there for a vacation.”

“The Elves are already there preparing. There’s no need to act fussy.”

She didn’t like the Central District either.

She didn’t like the forest outside the city either.

“Is it okay to stay in such a humble place?”

“It’s not humble though? The Dwarves decorated it well?”

Karin interjected.

That was true.

But wasn’t it true that there were shortcomings for the representative of the Beastmen Union to stay?

Of course, he didn’t know well because he hadn’t seen the inns in the Central District.

Jung Yu-shin scratched his head.

The inn construction was well finished, and the space was widened, and Tarman’s group had gone on vacation, so there were many rooms left because there were no guests.

The inn operation was temporarily suspended because there were no staff. But if he lent it out as a rental, there was nothing bad about it.

‘If you think about it simply, is it a homestay?’

It might be cohabitation.

Jung Yu-shin thought for a moment and nodded.

“Let’s do that. However, we’re not currently operating the inn. But I’ll help with meals, cleaning, and laundry as much as I can.”

Ingrid chuckled.

“I understand. I’ll call my subordinates if necessary, so don’t worry too much.”

Come to think of it, her subordinates weren’t visible.

Jung Yu-shin pondered and shook his head.

‘They must be somewhere.’

It wasn’t his concern up to there.

“Then please stay comfortably until the meeting. You can use any room.”

“Skar, where is your room?”

“Go up and it’s the end room on the right.”

“Is that so? I understand.”

Ingrid took out a letter from her bosom, handed it to Jung Yu-shin, and continued.

“Darmong sent it.”

“Oh?! Really?”

Jung Yu-shin, who had been maintaining a calm atmosphere throughout, jumped up from his seat.

“Yes.”

Jung Yu-shin politely received Ingrid’s letter and unfolded it.

A question of how he was doing.

Each word was filled with apology and concern.

There was also a story that his wife’s belly had swelled as much as a mountain.

Was childbirth imminent?

It also said that he would be back soon.

‘I see.’

If Darmong saw the newly built inn, he would be surprised and fall backward.

Would they all live in Labyrinth City together when the baby was born?

Jung Yu-shin carefully folded the letter and put it in his bosom.

He heard that Darmong was returning soon.

Jung Yu-shin inwardly wished for a safe delivery.

Ingrid let out a strange sigh.

Darmong also had some connection with the Beastmen Union.

He was also a man she had been watching because he didn’t boast and acted quite steadily.

To be exact, she had acquaintance with Darmong’s wife because she was a tribal chief.

Due to the nature of the Beastmen Union, several tribes are integrated and operated. Naturally, they have to meet with the heads of the tribes and discuss policies.

A structure in which they have no choice but to establish a relationship whether they like it or not.

The memory of Darmong’s wife, who looked like a strong woman, smiling and handing over the letter with a swollen belly, flashed through her mind.

Anyway, a baby.

Ingrid unconsciously twisted her hair.

“Do you have any plans for the future?”

“It hasn’t been long since I adapted to Mana, so I need to adapt. I’m planning to stay in the city, train, and visit the library in the Central District. I’m also thinking of taking the time to find party members.”

It was an unexpected question for Ingrid, but Jung Yu-shin answered immediately.

“Party members?”

Karin widened her eyes and interjected.

“Yes. Delia and Barion left for the east. They said they would become holy knights of the Mother Earth Order.”

Jung Yu-shin took the time to explain the rest of the story.

Karin, who had been listening for a long time, drooped her shoulders.

“I thought I had barely found good party members.”

Jung Yu-shin shrugged.

“There will be another connection. You only need to find the remaining 2 or 3 people again.”

“Karin plans to stay in the city for a while. She can’t participate in the party. Until the situation calms down.”

“But I heard that successors go into the Labyrinth to prove themselves?”

“That’s when the situation is peaceful.”

“I see.”

Ingrid let out a small sigh.

If there was another child besides Karin, she would have kept them going into the Labyrinth.

She felt uncomfortable because the situation was not favorable and seemed to be hindering Karin’s growth.

Baby.

Ingrid shook her head and got up from her seat.

“I’m tired from the journey. Let’s talk about the rest later.”

“I understand.”

Everyone got up from their seats.

Jung Yu-shin returned to his room and lay down on the bed.

Ingrid said she was staying at the inn, but it didn’t really sink in.

Neither did the events happening outside Labyrinth City.

No matter how the world’s storms flowed, the most important thing was to enter the Labyrinth.

‘I should go to sleep.’

Jung Yu-shin pillowed his arm and closed his eyes.

* * *

Morning three days later.

Jung Yu-shin put down the dumbbells he was holding in the yard and took a deep breath.

“Hoo-oo-oo-oo.”

Sweat was flowing from his whole body.

“It’s really delicious.”

Jung Yu-shin smacked his lips and looked down at the dumbbells.

They were special dumbbells made to order from Boron and Einhofer’s blacksmith. They used a rare mineral that became heavier when magic power was added.

To increase muscle strength, you have to overload the body, but it wasn’t easy because his strength had become too strong due to Mana adaptation.

But those worries were now gone.

Because he had special dumbbells.

Jung Yu-shin caught his breath and closed his eyes.

Slowly observing his inner self, he could feel the significantly increased amount of magic power thanks to the Level Up and the Mage’s Tears elixir.

[Sacred Weapon]

As he wished, a golden sword was immediately created in his hand.

‘As expected.’

He had heard that Divine or Blessing magic is halved when you receive the Half Incubus mark, but it seemed that was only the case when it directly affected the body.

‘Good.’

Jung Yu-shin checked his body once and swung the longsword.

“You’re working hard.”

Someone said from behind.

“Ingrid-nim.”

Jung Yu-shin immediately turned around and greeted.

Ingrid was holding a laundry basket in comfortable clothes.

It was hard to know where to look because she was wearing loose tunic over white dolphin shorts.

Wasn’t it too free-spirited even if it was early morning?

“Do you swing your sword every morning?”

Ingrid asked, approaching.

“Yes.”

“That’s amazing. I wish my daughter would do that too.”

Ingrid sighed softly and said.

“Karin works hard too.”

“Skar is right. I work hard.”

Karin, who had already woken up, stood at the yard gate, looking at Ingrid and saying.

Loose tunic and dolphin shorts.

The outfits were similar to Ingrid. However, the colors of the dolphin shorts were different. Ingrid’s were white, Karin’s were black.

Ingrid came closer and put her hand on Jung Yu-shin’s shoulder.

“Your muscles are very stiff. Shall I loosen them up?”

At Ingrid’s words, Jung Yu-shin stiffened.

“No. I’m okay.”

“He’s okay. Mom.”

“No. Last time I received a ‘massage’ from Skar, so it’s going to be hard to just let this pass.”

“…”

Karin’s mouth dropped open.

“M-mom?”

“What’s wrong, Karin?”

“N-nothing.”

Jung Yu-shin couldn’t overcome Ingrid’s insistence, so he sat in the yard, spread his legs, and laid down.

She said it was a massage to increase flexibility.

Squish.

Something touched his back.

Could it be.

‘Breasts?’

“Now relax your body. You’re too stiff.”

Ingrid’s voluptuous breasts were pressed against Jung Yu-shin’s back, squashed into a lewd shape.

“M-mom!!! Aren’t you getting too close?”

“Massages are originally done like this.”

“…”

“But you’re too stiff. I need to put a little more weight on it.”

His chest slowly disappeared, and something fluffy was placed on him.

‘What is it?’

“M-mom!!! Why are you sitting on Skar’s back?!!!”

Voluptuous hips surrounded by white dolphin shorts, where the panty line was clearly visible, pressed down on Jung Yu-shin’s back, spreading out like dumplings.

Strangely, one part of Ingrid’s lower body felt hot.

“That’s how it’s originally done?”

“T-then me too!!!”

Black dolphin shorts were placed on Jung Yu-shin’s back.

Karin also put her hips on Jung Yu-shin’s back and rubbed them hard.

‘What the hell is going on?’

Jung Yu-shin barely held back a sigh that was rising.

The inn’s yard as dawn broke.

The mother and daughter’s black and white dolphin shorts were dancing on Jung Yu-shin’s broad back.
