"I still have my hymen, you know♡"
'What the hell...'
At Sharperia's words, which defied all common sense, Si-woo looked down at her with a dumbfounded expression.
Perhaps his expression amused her, because she burst into a soft laugh.
Though she was a queen who had been so easily disheveled when moaning, she quickly regained her composure, elegantly covering her mouth with her hand even as she laughed. Though Si-woo felt a bit annoyed by that sight, satisfying his curiosity came first.
"Absurd, isn't it? Hehe. But that's how it is."
The queen pushed herself up, gently shoving him aside.
She continued speaking.
"But just think about it. The men of this world, who are so pitifully weak."
"......."
"If they were to engage in relations, could they truly impregnate a woman?"
"...Huh?"
Si-woo let out a small exclamation.
It made sense.
"The men of this world truly are so weak it makes one's anger toward the Goddess boil over. An average man and woman, who cannot even feel mana and have no blessings, would fall in love and marry, right? But they couldn't have children."
"They couldn't?"
"Yes, in the past. If a man's member couldn't even pierce a woman's hymen, how could his seed fertilize an egg?"
"......."
Hearing words like 'sperm' and 'egg' in a medieval-style world felt somewhat awkward, but given the world-building, he could let it slide. Perhaps they had modern-level knowledge when it came to sexual matters.
More than that, if the queen's words were true, the yin energy and whatever-it-was spreading throughout the world seemed more severe than he'd thought. Just how weak had it made men, that ordinary seed couldn't even fertilize an egg?
If he looked into it in detail, there were probably even more reasons they couldn't cause pregnancy: low sperm count, weak sperm strength, tougher egg membranes, and so on.
"Fortunately, this was during the time when the Goddess was awake, so she bestowed a spell upon the clergy."
"A pregnancy spell...?"
"That's right. Hehe. But it wasn't a spell to enhance seed to make pregnancy easier. Instead, it extracted life energy from a man's semen, and similarly extracted life force from the eggs inside a woman's body. A very unusual method."
'Wow, crazy. The Goddess herself is basically recommending in vitro fertilization... What kind of messed-up world is this.'
He had felt it when hearing about the myths, but truly, the root of all evil in this world was the Goddess, the creator deity.
She didn't even know there was some mysterious hole in the world she created, leaking yin energy and... whatever it was, and she went around kidnapping gods from other dimensions. Just what had she done to make some of the gods rebel?
And if you looked for the cause of everything else, it was all the Goddess.
'Still...'
"Thank you, Goddess."
Si-woo offered his sincere gratitude to the Goddess, who slept peacefully somewhere.
"......? Si-woo. Surely you're not thanking the Goddess because I have a hymen...?"
"Because, you see, it's proof you're a virgin."
"...Excuse me?"
"Though there are three types of virgin mindsets, I'm not that much of a unicorn, so to me, Your Majesty, you are a virgin."
"......."
Though a hymen isn't exactly definitive proof of virginity, Si-woo was serious.
At his endlessly serious expression, Sharperia briefly made a disgruntled face, then erased it just as quickly.
She didn't know why he was like this, but one thing was certain: Han Si-woo seemed to like that she had a hymen. And she could satisfy him in that regard. For today, at least, her husband's small member was as little appreciated as its size.
'This is enough...♡'
"To continue the story, if you combine those two extracted life energies and place them in something called the Goddess's Cradle, a child grows there. The period is the same, about 10 months. After that, lovely children are born from there."
"But still... pregnancy function hasn't atrophied, right?"
Si-woo asked, still with a serious face.
For some reason, she could read the intent behind his question from his expression.
"Ah... o-of course. Naturally, this body can also get pregnant...♡"
"Then that's fine. No matter what, I'd want my baby to grow inside its mother's body."
"I... would like to experience that too."
The queen bowed her head, looking at her stomach. Si-woo followed her gaze, staring at her flat belly, which contrasted with her chest. He could see Sharperia caressing her abdomen with her hand.
"In this belly... a beloved man's child..."
"The latter part seems easy."
"Excuse me?"
"The part about having a child."
"...Is that so? I don't think so. From what I can see... the former part also doesn't seem difficult♡"
"......."
"......."
In the silence, the gazes of the two intersected.
Both were filled with lust, yet somehow there was also a deep, affectionate tenderness.
After gazing at each other for a long while, Si-woo was the first to move.
As if he couldn't hold back any longer, he reached out toward Sharperia, but she dodged his hand and stepped aside.
"Your Majesty...?"
The same happened when he reached out again.
The queen, not removing her alluring smile, held out a hand to stop him. With her other hand, she tucked back in her swaying breasts, which had been exposed through the open part. While still sensual, she was returning to being the elegant queen once more.
"I'm sorry, Si-woo. Not now."
"Later, at 10... Please come to my room then. Hehe."
A married woman skilled at push-and-pull, like a single woman preparing ramen at 10, leisurely left his room.
Si-woo blankly watched her retreating figure, then sighed after the door closed.
It wasn't even 8 yet. But he had to endure for over two hours—there was no torture like this. In a corner of his mind shaken by lust, a voice argued to call Hildear and use her as a snack, but he gave up on that, thinking it would be rude to both women.
'Not now. That comes later.'
The queen and the royal guard.
A future filled with the bright hope of a master-servant rice bowl would be set aside for now; today, he planned to focus on Sharperia.
He hadn't awakened his mana yet, and his stamina was mediocre at best—needlessly exhausting his stamina and virility would be foolish.
'Pregnancy... is it possible?'
To think he could impregnate a queen in her thirties who is both a virgin and a married woman, just two days after being summoned.
No matter how many times he thought about it, this was just too good of a world.
This must be how modern people summoned to a lacking otherworld feel. Everyone around them shouting about how amazing they are, women fawning over them daily. If only he could erase the world destruction flag, it would be perfect.
Guilt about taking another man's woman? Of course not. Anyone could see it was the husband's incompetence, arrogance, and sin. If he had been even slightly better and cared for his wife, would this have happened?
'Not a chance.'
Whether intentional or not, it was karma.
"By the way, I'm a bit disappointed."
Si-woo removed his bathrobe and changed his clothes.
"I thought I was incredibly aroused, but then she ran away."
It was a bit upsetting. Clearly, at that moment, he had been pounding so hard that even a little friction on his oil-soaked body would have caused a major fire, but Sharperia coolly overcame it and withdrew.
"Suddenly I'm getting heated. Just wait until 10."
He turned his head to check the clock hanging on the wall.
It was only 7:52. It seemed he'd have to wait longer than he thought.
Contrary to Si-woo's thoughts, Queen Sharperia hadn't withdrawn that leisurely.
"Hoo, hoo... Ugh, that was really dangerous...."
Her heart had been pounding so hard she might have started something right there in his room. It wasn't for no reason that she had held his gaze for so long. It was all a stalling tactic to suppress her boiling lust.
"Except for my daughter's refusal... everything is going well."
Walking through the palace corridors, she fell deep in thought.
Though there were still two most important things left, everything was proceeding smoothly so far. It was a bit disappointing that her daughter wasn't involved, but that was fine. She just had to work that much harder.
The queen was confident.
Not confident that she could seduce Si-woo and make him her prisoner, but confident that she could make him happy. She had considered the former somewhat, but abandoned it after hearing about his personality from Hildear.
He was masculine enough to grab a woman who started biting and sucking his dick the moment she saw it and ejaculate in her mouth. On top of that, he cursed and grabbed her head, Hildear had said. If she tried to use him halfheartedly, she'd only earn his displeasure.
'Then it's better to match his preferences.'
If Si-woo had any rough edges, it would have been quite troublesome and difficult, but she hadn't seen any such signs yet.
Rather, he fit perfectly to the queen's liking.
His face was fairly handsome, he was diligent and had a good body. His stamina was somewhat guaranteed, and his virility and lower parts were beyond question. His manners were excellent and his personality was satisfactory. And there was his masculinity, which seemed like something she could rely on in difficult times.
"If I were royalty, I would divorce that man and marry Si-woo."
It was truly a shame.
So she had tried to bring in her daughter, the princess, to connect them, but the girl, lost in idealism, was busy playing love games with the handsome son of a count. Perhaps because he was a famous pretty boy, she was showering him with all sorts of gifts and courting him.
'Should I just hurry up and make those two get married? Then that girl would wake up from her delusions quickly.'
It was a sudden thought, but it was better than expected.
Fortunately, Si-woo didn't seem reluctant just because she had a husband. He would probably like it as long as the hymen was intact. And as far as she knew, her daughter's lover, the count's son, was a typical vain man with only a weak blessing.
She had already confirmed this through the Royal Chamberlain, Count Parsha.
"There's no way such a pathetic man could take the virginity of a child who carries royal blood and my bloodline."
A satisfied smile rose on the queen's face.
Thus, another problem was solved.
She needed to connect her daughter and Si-woo again as soon as possible, but until then, she planned to hold onto him with her own body.
If possible, to receive his essence in this belly and become pregnant. Direct pregnancy with one's own body was one of the dreams of every woman in this world. She caressed her stomach, feeling a pleasant excitement.
The flames of lust, barely suppressed, were spreading through her body again with renewed vigor at the mere thought of Si-woo. She wanted to become one with him quickly; her lower abdomen throbbed.
"Ha, to think I'm more excited than my daughter... This is serious. At this rate, I'll fall even deeper...♡"
Muttering a worry that wasn't really a worry, the queen returned to her bedchamber with pleasant steps.
And she began preparations.
The preparations of a woman to receive a real man.
