TLN: If you suffer from homophobia, then be warned You will not like this chapter Just a little warning I personally don’t really care about that stuff, so it doesn’t matter to me, but if you are sensitive to that stuff, you should not read the rest of this chapter or even the entire arc Sorry for this little interruption, just a heads up Have an enjoyable read~~
”So what are we here to talk about, again?”
”Yeah, wait Well, welcome back C’ strange?”
I’ time, because he’s usually normal
We met at the bar next to the Adventurer's Guild for the first ti from my honey over the past few days When I finally thought I had souy I can’t even take a break even though I’et along with each other, but Ende, who Itime, had so with a Bing!
”How aboutbad?”
It's strange that this guy cares about soet a screw loose in your head after being beaten a bit too hard by Takeru-ojisan?
As Ende started talking again, he had a face that seeroan at any e has many forms in other worlds There are various patterns, such as rituals to decide a life partner, just a contract to have a child, a religious rule, etc But ”
”Huh ?”
”We, the 'crossers', basically choose e because of the other party’s racial traits If the one we areis not of the same race, it means the 'end' of our journey The ‘crosser’ is now tied to one world and cannot cross over to other worlds Those who are no longer able to cross are no longer ”crossers'' Well, because we are a long-lived species, if the other party is a short-lived species, there are those who ”cross” again after seeing off their partner in death”
”? What do you want to say, then?”
It's a roundabout way of tellingto convey to htforwardly
Ende looked away from me and drank the ice-filled liquor in front of hietmarried!”
”Oh? …………What! Huh!?”
Ende's wordsin et a bouquet during the bouquet toss at our weddingIs this the power of Karen-nee?
”Hey, hey, wait a ht?”
”It's natural I haven't gone here or there like Touya-san”
Oops, I was dissed, good one, though Or rather, how is this guy getting h
”Mel see, because there is no such thing as e in the culture of Phrase ”
”Wait a minute, no, how does a Phrasebreed?”
For the ti, there were male and female types as the Dominant Class I don't think it e
”Well, a Lower, Intermediate, and Advanced Class cannot have children, but the Dominant Class, the ones with males and females, can”
”How do they ive birth to a child by itself Well, the child isn’t like a hu in detail, I found out that first of all, all Phrase are born in a nuclear state It seerow as one life forrown as an individual, and it seerown Phrase can create a new nucleus by using its own vitality The more vitality there is, the more nuclei will be produced In other words, if parents are young and at the cost of their lives, many Phrase will be born ?
”The Dominant Class are a little different, and can create the next generation of cores by theraded reproduction of their children I don't like the Dominant Class’ reproductive method very much”
”That ht? Well, thenis it the same way as humans?” (TLN; The REAL questions… hehe)
I choose my words carefully and ask Ende what I wanted to have answered No, I'm actually interested
”Well, it's almost the same The child is a fusion of the cores created by the two parents Isn’t it the same for humans?” (TLN: Summary: A Phrase can create a child by itself No other parent is required, but you can have two parents In that case, one parent will give a part of their vitality to create half of the new core, and the other half will be created by the other parent Any more questions that e me)
FusionNo, is that what to call it ? Huenes of their parents, so I guess it works
”There is no concept of e in the Phrase species If you want to have a child, you just get a part of the core of the person you like, and you don't live with them or stay close to them all the time Sometimes there are such individuals, but they’re really rare Most of the time, it's a shame that the child only has one parent and doesn't know the other parent So even if it has siblings, most of them are half-brothers or half-sisters in human terms ”
How unroy, it would be strange to be interested in the act of irls were also interested in food
”Does she knohat it et married?”
”I explained it to her People who like each other raise children together, support each other, and live together”
Well, you missed a few details, but can we say it's alh There are also political es
”I mean, you can't have a child between Mel and you ?”
”Mel originally traveled across the world to live in the same world as me and has continued to evolve Her body's like a Phrase, but not exactly She has evolved and exists as a new species who is close towith that, just”
Ende looks at the air with dull eyes What is it, what happened? I'm scared to hear
”It’s not just MelI told her that Ney and Lycee would also like to get married ”
”Ah!?”
What's that! Hey, didn’t you just diss o!?? You're the same! This harem bastard!
When I asked, Ende replied with a face that looked like he had just eaten a bitter wor that it was different froirls both want to marry Mel”
“………… What?”
I suddenly heard strange wordsDoyukoto?
”Mel wasn't the only one interested in getting et ht it was an Ende harem, but is it a Mel harem? Mel is popular
”Eh, but they're both fe female bodies, the Doender will always be the same as the parent, and it will be difficult for the characteristics of the parents to be inherited, so it is not so much”
What is thatThen is there any probleet married if you love each other even if you are of the same sex Actually, there are such people in this world as well
Polygamy is allowed in this world At the same time, if you have the financial resources to support your spouse, polyandry is allowed I hear that the Duke of some country has three husbands
Unfortunately, I haven't heard of an exae between afor one (TLN: I don’t know if the last two sentences are referring to “any duke” or just “one specific Duke” Or if it even refers to a Duke… But you got what it’s trying to convey Polyandry is coal in the Different World)
”What are Mel's thoughts on this?”
”She wants to get married and live in harmony with theirls will give up”
So Mel is willing to accept ? What is this pattern? At least I think Mel can be happy In her case,a family”
I'm sure her love is directed towards EndeI don’t think she will not like gettinga fairls?”
”HmmI don't hate it I've traveled to various worlds with Lycee, and I've beco with her Well, Ney and I still have some friction because of what happened prior”
Ende ansith a bitter set married because of her coht up
”That ht?”
”Yeah I' to happen, but fortunately there's a good sample nearby You should have also coht? Are you sure? ”
Wait apreached!? Are you Elze's brother! Oh no, I' trained with that otof nervousness for you Why did I have to be beaten instead of Touya-san?”
”I didn’t know that… sorry”
I didn’t know that such stress was relieved by Elze in the for Ende… It's true that Elze is a type whose eht I was following up well at that tih to cure her anxiety
