Idols Around the World 900

Chapter 900 – #97. Lanna (60)

“I think I talked about it with my friends for close to three hours.”
“Everyone is at an age where they start to worry about getting married.”

The worries Lanna had with her friends are also deeply connected to me.
This world is facing destruction as the seed of the male sex dries up.
Even now, the decline in the population has not been serious, and the number of men will decrease even more in the future.

‘I gave birth to quite a few children… But is it really possible to prevent this world from perishing with this?’

In the news, the government’s efforts to increase the number of people who were still declining were still leaking out.
Nothing has changed since I came into this world.
No, if there is anything that has changed, would it be that the situation has become more serious?
Under these circumstances, it was natural for me to question whether what I did after coming to this world had any meaning.

‘When will this world return to normal?’

A world of gender reversal.
It is only in novels that men are happy to say that the world is like heaven, but when problems are brought into reality, it is a pretty precarious world.
Isn’t it that the human race is on the verge of extinction because there are no men?
Even if men are connected with multiple women through polygamy, close to 70% of the population will have to grow old alone.
The number of men is dwindling to the point of being bloody.

[Why is the male fertility rate declining?]
[Declining male population, despite government efforts, still decreasing trend.]

All sorts of experiments were being done to increase the male population.

[There is no humanity after us. Shocking results come out…!]

If the male population continues to decline at this rate, the generation after us will cease to exist, he said.
In addition to the declining birth rate, the fact that most of the children born are girls was the biggest problem in the world, and that problem was not easily solved.

“Little by little, what you said is starting to feel real.”
“What about what I said?”
“You said you came to stop the destruction. But looking at the current situation, I think there really isn’t much left.

There is one reason why this phenomenon occurs.
Because men are monopolized by certain beings.
Certain beings, of course, refer to the upper class holding ‘wealth’ and ‘power’.
While the number of common women marrying men is gradually decreasing, upper-class women get married and start a family as if it were natural for them to reach a certain age.

‘I heard that in some places, they decide on a man from an early age and raise him according to his taste.’

A bigger problem is that if you are pregnant with a girl, you will have an abortion or, at worst, abandon the child.
Some women have used in vitro procedures because of the government’s support for having a boy.

‘It’s not because humans say they’re sorry.’

How venomous it is to throw away the child you gave birth to and think of using it.
It was something I didn’t want to empathize with or understand.

“What do you think of in vitro procedures?”
“I’ve come to stop the destruction of this place, but it’s impossible to solve the problem right away. Perhaps the present generation will have no choice but to make sacrifices.”
“You mean you approve of in vitro procedures?”
“You gave good advice. If you look around as much as possible and don’t regret it, it’s not a bad thing to have a family through an in vitro procedure. It’s something the government is actively recommending.”

Despite these side effects, the reason why the government recommends in vitro procedures is because the population is so dwindling that the side effects can only be ignored.
It will probably take a lot of time for this phenomenon of decreasing male numbers to disappear.
The children I gave birth to become adults and start dating women, and if I have grandchildren like that, it will have to be repeated when those children become adults and have children.

‘I’m not saying this because they’re my children, they must be popular because they’re really good-looking.’

In a situation where he had a lot of money and was handsome, there was no way women would leave him alone.
Didn’t I have a lot of trouble getting rid of women’s flirting?
So will my children.

‘I have to work even harder to give birth.’

I gave birth to triplets, but I felt that I was still lacking a lot.
This world has become more precious as families have been created and children have increased.
The deeper the affection, the more the situation that may perish makes my shoulders heavy.
This is the world my children will live in.
Can’t we make such a world by the end of the century?
Moreover, I had to continue to live with my family in this world.

Now that I think about it, I wonder if there was a separate reason for giving me such a mission.
As I progressed through the mission, the distinction between ‘line’ that I had was blurred.

‘It can’t be the same as when I brought it in like that and had sex, but it can’t be the same as when I didn’t.’

I also wondered if I was taking the responsibility for the children of my lineage, the responsibility for the woman who gave birth to my child, and the minimum human moral standard too seriously.

‘Isn’t there nothing more important than destruction? What’s the use of watching morality like this if it perishes? You’ve seen how people live in a zombie world.’

Going to the zombie apocalypse world also had a big impact on changing my moral mind.
The shock of seeing the destruction of mankind with my own two eyes remained clearer in my memory than I thought.

‘There’s no way zombies will pop out of nowhere in our world…’

It reminds me of the gloomy abandoned buildings and the solitary appearance of their remains.
If this world is destroyed, the scene we saw then will unfold here as well.

‘In that case, it’s better to just create a new identity and carry around women.’

Traveling to various countries to give birth to children.
Let’s put things like responsibility aside for a while.
If it perishes, what will be the importance of responsibility or morality?
If I get women pregnant like that, the world will stabilize much faster.
Then my family can live comfortably.
You don’t have to do that all your life.
If you do that for just two or three years, the children the women give birth will grow up and give birth to more children.

‘If it were me in the past, I wouldn’t have even thought of doing something like this.’

It seems that Joo-ah noona said that because of this.
Thank you for not changing me.
If you’re willing to actively use this ability, you can do so much with just a quick change of mind.
This is why you shouldn’t be caught off guard if you’re trying to do something with them.
You don’t know when and where you’ll be messing around.

‘Whoa…’

I don’t know how well I did when I said I wasn’t taking missions for the time being.
If you keep doing the missions he brings, your morals will have been twisted without realizing it.

“Let’s practice.”

I was talking to Lanna and suddenly the topic of destruction came up, so my head was a bit confused today, but the things I had to do hadn’t changed.

‘It’s practicing and practicing again for the concert stage.’

I did a good job raising the difficulty level.
I got used to performing on stage with the members, so I stopped thinking about putting on a stage with a higher level of difficulty.
The members are also practicing with care for the stage to be shown at my concert, showing their untimely desire to compete, and I felt like I could do my best to decorate the stage for the first time in a while.
As I was engrossed in practice, the days passed so quickly that I did not know how they passed.

‘It’s only natural that I’m busy raising children, practicing, and managing the country.’

Compared to the average person, I am living 3 lives.
Nevertheless, the fact that I felt the time passing quickly meant that I was making the most of my time in a very different way.

“It’s finally next week. I don’t know why I’m shaking.”

Stage costumes came out, and rehearsal remained at the same time as stage inspection.
But that’s pretty much it.
Now all I really need to do is get on stage for the concert.

“I’m nervous too. I think I’m going to perform in front of my family. I hope everyone enjoys it.”
“Everyone will enjoy it. You know how hard you worked to prepare it.”
“I prepared so hard that I was surprised that it was so cool.”

Lanna decided to leave a few days before the concert with her friends.
Since it was a long-awaited overseas trip with her friends, I was looking forward to it, so I was able to smile happily when I saw it.

“I’ll be waiting for you in front of the airport. We decided to come out on time, so you can pack your bags and meet up with your friends. He’ll take you to a hotel, and wherever you want to go, just tell him and he’ll take you there.”
“Thank you.”
“Goodbye. I’ll call you when I arrive at the concert venue. I’ll meet you in the waiting room.”

It wasn’t an easy decision to be away from the triplets for days.
However, with my active support and my mother-in-law’s persuasion, I had planned a week-long trip.
However, as her travel period was much longer than expected, it was necessary to have her person attached so that nothing else would happen to her during the week.
That’s the ‘him’ I just said.

“I’m supposed to be with my friends, but are you going to the waiting room?”
“Sure. You weren’t even going to say hello?”
“What am I going to tell my friends. They don’t know who you are.”
“What’s the problem? Just pretend you don’t know.”
“Pretending not to know…?”
“Well, I introduce myself to my friends as close friends with my husband. Won’t they like it? Will they take a picture for the autograph?”
“…”

Although she was not confident in acting, Lanna was worried that she did not want to miss a good opportunity.

“If you came all the way here to see my concert, I think you’d enjoy the experience of meeting and talking with me in person, right?”

Since I was whispering in her ear, I also nodded her head in the end.

“Maybe you’ll like it.”
“Then are you coming to the waiting room?”
“…I’ll ask my friends.”

Nice!
The answer that she asked her friends was the same as saying that she would come eventually.
