After Retirement, Living a Stud Life in Another World - 216

Chapter 216: Am I Harmful?

Lord Antonia said, “I-I must give instructions to the subjugation team!!” and, flustered, left as if trying to escape. I don’t know, it kind of felt like me and Liese were the ones initiating sexual harassment, and it made me feel awkward.

“That person, despite having far more experience than us…”

“Well, once we get closer, we can always ask her about it. After I give birth to the child, make sure to properly ‘impregnate’ me, okay? By the way, I’ve already received Beato’s permission.”

Ah, I see. Since Beato gave the okay, that probably means she has confirmed there are no ill intentions using the “Eye of the Spirits.” That’s a relief, but… it also means there’s no way out now. Lately, the women around me seem to be handling things too efficiently.

“Did you not like it? Lord Antonia is older, but I thought she was right in your strike zone.”

“It’s not that I didn’t like her. Actually, I do, but… that’s not the point. I don’t want to be thinking about other women on the day I finally got into this kind of relationship with you, sis.”

In response to my answer, Liese gently lowered the corners of her eyes.

“I love that about you, Lutz. But I think this way. A wonderful man like you shouldn’t belong to just one person. I believe that every virtuous woman in this country has the right to want your child… Well, it depends on how you feel, of course.”

The earnest Liese seems to view my “divine seed” rationally, as a means to strengthen the nation and society…

“Don’t misunderstand. I don’t care whether the child’s magic is high or low. If it’s the child of Lutz, whom I love and respect, whether it’s a boy or a girl, with or without magic, I will wish for it with all my heart. I want to hold this child in my arms soon.”

As she said such cute things, she placed her palm on her lower abdomen and gently rubbed it. I couldn’t help but be moved by the sight. I pulled her slim but toned waist closer and kissed her lips.

Though the morning had been quite lively, I couldn’t drag Liese into a prolonged session, especially since she had serious work to do. Shaking off my reluctance, Liese left with Lord Antonia and returned to her unit. Of course, lazy as I am, I decided to go back to sleep. Even though I was still a teenage monkey, after four intense rounds, it was inevitable that I’d be exhausted.

Around noon, I finally showed up at the development site, and my childhood friend, whose belly had become more noticeable, greeted me with a warm look. It was a bit of a relief that her usual deadly glare wasn’t there.

“Hmph… You look satisfied. Congratulations, I’m glad for you.”

Surprisingly, Gretel’s comment was kind. After all, she had said, “I welcome you becoming a family with Liese, sister.”

“Yeah, thanks. But… it’s lonely that I can’t be with you, Gretel. When I have a child… will you do it with me again?”

At my words, my childhood friend’s cheeks immediately turned bright red. Even though she had already shown impressive performance during our nighttime athletic events, she still seemed shy about it. But apparently, for a girl, it wasn’t something to be embarrassed about.

“Yeah. I want to love you again, Lutz. So for now, I’ll do my best to have a strong baby.”

As she said that, Gretel gathered platinum-colored light in her left hand and slowly placed it on her lower abdomen. It was like she was having a conversation with the baby inside through magic.

“Hey, can I touch it too?”

I wanted to join in this heartwarming interaction, so I asked her. But, unlike usual, Gretel, who loves body contact, seemed to be deep in thought today.

“What’s wrong?”

“Hmm… I do want you to touch my belly, Lutz. But… remember when you touched Beato-sister or Adele’s bellies while they were in their final months? What happened then?”

“Oh…”

Right. Both of them had no signs of labor until I touched their bellies, and suddenly, contractions started, and before I knew it, they were giving birth. After two such incidents, I could only assume my magic had somehow affected the babies in their wombs. If she gave birth right now, it would be far too early. I want her to be able to rest for a bit longer in her belly… so I should refrain for now.

“I don’t think your magic would cause any harm, but… since this is the first and last time, I want to treasure it.”

Yeah, I understand her feelings. I don’t want to bring any danger to my cute childhood friend, either.

And it seems like Gretel also considers this pregnancy to be “the last one.” Her magical power has increased so much that Ayaka’s debuffs wouldn’t work anymore… With my weak “seed,” I don’t know if it’s S or SSS-class, but breaking through the much stronger light defense would be impossible.

Well, I’ll try not to think about that for now. In just two months, our long-awaited baby will be born. It’ll probably be a cute and active girl, just like her.
