“You… Gave the item to Shepard?”
“Yes!”
Rania answered with a bright smile.
As someone who knew what that item was, I couldn’t easily laugh it off.
And given Rania’s personality, it’s also strange that she handed over the item.
She might use that as an excuse to rip something off of Shepard…
“… Well? I might have been able to get a small amount of money out of it, but… I wouldn’t have been able to get what I really wanted. Shepard is not a person who can be swayed by threats like that.”
That doesn’t work?
As expected, Shepherd had a more harsh side than expected.
“He is different from Mr. Bark. He is not a person who will give up on what he considers to be a great cause. And he is also a person who knows how to give up what he wants to give up for the greater good.”
So you just gave those photos to Shepard?
Of course, that is not a favor.
If he doesn’t mind seeing pictures of his wife cavorting with another man, he isn’t her man.
Moreover, Rania’s work was of a considerably high standard.
Shepard probably suffered a significant mental blow.
“What if I take revenge?”
“So I came to Bark.”
“…”
“Don’t worry. Shepard is a man who cares about the cause. Now that he has the power to rule the slums, will he take the risk of messing with Bark?
“Are you that serious about the slums?”
I know that Shepherd took a just position and tried to improve the slums.
But I think it was a lot sincerer than I thought.
“Yes, changing the slums is Shepard’s lifelong dream. I was going to turn the entire slums into the best entertainment district in Karaz and turn them away… But that was overlooked because of Bark.”
If I had destroyed Shepherd and his officers on the spot…
There was a high possibility that it went according to Rania’s calculations.
Since I had no interest in managing the organization, I would have left full authority to Rania.
“With Shepard’s personality, he would probably want to bury everything. Wouldn’t he only lose himself by revealing what happened to Eleanor?”
Considering that they framed me, not Eleanor, for a strange purge, it is highly likely that things will turn out as Rania said.
“But will Shepard be able to think of Eleanor the same way as before?”
“…”
I think Rania’s revenge was successful.
“Ah! By the way, did you hear the news?”
“What news?”
In Karaz, there is no television or radio, let alone the Internet. To them, news was closer to a rumor passed from person to person.
In short, it cannot be trusted.
“They said Eleanor was pregnant?”
“… Pregnant?”
“Yes, I’m pregnant. Could this be Bark’s child?”
Rania was smiling like a bad boy.
“Ah… You guess?”
The reason I thought that way wasn’t because I didn’t want to take responsibility.
I admit that Eleanor’s pregnancy seems to be closely related to mine. I’ve cummed countless times like that.
She wants to take responsibility if she says she is my child.
Nevertheless, the thought that the child in Eleanor’s womb was not my seed was a conclusion based on statistics.
When I was at the Great Devil Castle, I had relationships with many women over the years. Of course, I filled their wombs with my semen without any contraception.
Nevertheless, there was not a single woman who conceived my child.
At first, I felt anxious too.
I thought maybe there was something wrong with me.
My semen is beyond the scope of an ordinary human.
It works really well for the women I have relationships with. Increasing magic attribute is basic, preventing aging, increasing stamina, increasing likability… Etc.
Since semen has such a ridiculous effect, and you can’t get pregnant… I couldn’t help but think that I had turned into a seedless watermelon.
I didn’t want to have children yet…
‘I don’t want it’ and ‘I can’t have it’ have completely different feelings.
In the end, I ended up asking two archmages, Liliana and Verna, to answer that question.
And the two great wizards rushed towards me, saying that my request was right.
This is because they were so interested that they wanted to use my body as an experiment from the beginning.
It was uncomfortable, but it was true that they were the smartest people I knew, so I had no choice.
After research, the two great wizards concluded that it would be difficult for my semen to impregnate an ordinary woman.
It doesn’t mean you can’t get pregnant.
It is possible, but the probability is very low. Meanwhile, Liliana told us about her solution.
“Woonho, your problem seems to be similar to that experienced by transcendents. If you have sex with someone of your caliber, rather than an ordinary person, your chances of becoming pregnant will increase.”
“Transcendent? A worthy opponent?”
“Do you know that the reconstructed body of a transcendental person is different from the body of an ordinary human? They also do not have children easily. However, if they are the same transcendental people, that problem is solved.”
When she heard that, she had a rough idea of what Liliana was talking about.
“Your case is similar. But your situation is worse than that of the Transcendent. Your body is so excellent that it cannot be compared to the Transcendent.”
“That means…”
“To put it simply, the more powerful the woman you have sex with transcends species, the more likely she is to beat your child.”
“…”
“And another thing is that you must have the will to want to get your partner pregnant.”
“Will?”
“The will of a being like you has power in itself. If you have a strong desire to have children, your chances will actually increase.”
Liliana’s story, conversely, meant that if I did not want to have children, my chances of getting pregnant would decrease.
So, the chances of Eleanor having my child were as low as winning the lottery.
Of course, that probability is not zero.
Kyung-sook on Earth is also pregnant.
Of course, at Gyeongsook’s time, her physical strength level was lower than it is now, so the probability of pregnancy may have been a little higher.
If I was the only man Eleanor had sex with during her pregnancy, there is a very high probability that she would have my child.
But only she knows the truth.
“Well, it doesn’t matter whether it’s Bark’s child or not.”
Rania says that the Shepard who will suffer from it is important.
Would Shepherd, who knows about my relationship with Eleanor, be happy about his wife’s pregnancy?
‘They say that if a woman harbors resentment, there will be frost even in May…’
I once again felt that, like Shepherd, I had to become a man with a broad heart who embraces all women rather than choosing just one woman.
〈 This is ridiculous… Why is the conclusion like that? 〉

The number of unemployed people lounging around at home has increased by one more.
As a weak-hearted person, I couldn’t shake Rania off.
Rania’s sociability was quite good, and she quickly became friends with the women in the family, including her older and younger siblings.
The house wasn’t that big, so it felt a little cramped for the four of them, but it wasn’t bad for her to live closely with the three beauties.
Even though it was such a peaceful time for a while, relationships from the past began to come back.
“I heard about the slums. They seem to be fine.”
Kaura said, looking me up and down.
“Did you think you would be crying?”
“Maybe? But if there’s anything I can help you with, let me know.”
I felt it before, but Cowra cares more about me than I thought.
Although I was involved in Rebellion activities, we didn’t spend that much time together, so it wasn’t enough for me to get this much attention.
Nevertheless, I can’t help but feel good about him showing such kindness and attention to me.
“… Thank you, but there’s no need for that. I’m thinking of taking a break for a while.”
Kaura must have sensed the sincerity of what I said and left after only saying a simple hello.
And not long after, another connection came.
“I believe in Buddhism.”
“What do you mean?”
Nora, who I hadn’t seen in a long time, was wearing a nun’s uniform, and she glanced at me and said,
The guy who had been following Nora was nowhere to be seen. It seemed like she didn’t bring me because she had been beaten up by me before.
“I heard about the slums.”
“Did you come to make fun of me for falling?”
“Why are you so crooked?”
“… It’s a joke.”
“I can help you if you need it.”
She also told a similar story to Cowra.
Nora helping me is not a bad option.
Her struggle to obtain information about Helena was also an opportunity for her to gain the intelligence of her slum side while gaining the favor of the man of wisdom.
Of course, it’s not like I didn’t research Helena when I was the president of the Guardians.
It wasn’t a difficult task for me as I didn’t have to step in and just had my subordinates do it.
But the funny thing is, when these guys investigated Helena, they were looking for her among the prostitutes in her brothel.
The people in the slums did not have that much knowledge about Helena.
“She has no intention of taking that position again. And the information from the slums will be of no use.”
“Is that so…”
Nora nodded her head, understanding what I meant.
“The Maseok convoy this time is difficult, but what will I do for the next convoy…”
Nora said as she glanced at me.
“…”
I never distanced myself from Nora because of that.
This was a matter of faith.
But looking at Nora’s face, her heart weakens.
Did you say that a person who helps you in difficult times is a true friend?
Cowra and Nora knew that something bad had happened to me and tried to help me. They are good people.
And even good people make mistakes.
I think it’s time to put Nora’s mistakes aside and hold her hand with a big heart.
It didn’t seem bad to start that unity with the Maseok convoy.
It appears in 〈. Breaking news.〉
‘Be quiet.’
