Death… and me

Chapter 650: Questions

Going back a few minutes in the past before Sister Orb told Rean’s group about what happened between Roan and Calina. In the girls’ room, Malaka and Qia wanted to ask Calina regarding the details of what happened. However, Calina insisted that she had to take a bath first. Of course, Malaka and Qia insisted.

“What?! Why are you leaving us in suspense? Can’t it wait?”

Calina immediately shouted with a hurried expression.

“IT CAN’T!”

She couldn’t be blamed, though. After all, she had been lying down beside Roan until a few minutes ago. Now that she was standing up, a certain white substance began to ooze out of her special place…a lot of it at that. It was just like Roan to be like that. He was…very thorough with his actions.

Without any other choice, they had to wait for Calina to finish taking her bath before finally asking what happened.

And with that, they heard everything. Malaka and Calina’s expressions were as red as Calina’s. They obviously noticed how long Calina spent her time there in the room with Roan. However, it was Roan they were talking about, right? All they thought was that Calina kept trying to get Roan’s attention all this time and would ultimately fail. They couldn’t believe it when they heard that Calina and Roan ended up having sex, which lasted for several hours. No wonder Calina looked so haggard when she came out. And…well…they could imagine why she couldn’t wait to take a bath.

“Woooooaaaaahhhh!”

Malaka couldn’t hide her excitement. 

“You really did it! You cracked the nut! Holy shit! Does that mean I’m the only virgin in our group now?”

Calina dropped her head in embarrassment while Qia’s mouth twitched in response. Qia was still a virgin but couldn’t bring that up. How annoying was that?

“What are you saying? This is an important moment for us women, okay? Don’t talk as if you should go out and have sex with the first man you see.”

Malaka nodded as she replied.

“Of course! I might be like this, but I also think of it as something important. Anyway, why are we talking about me? We all know very well that I don’t have any pretenders. Well, you know…no one would want to have a relationship with me to start with.”

Calina and Qia nodded vigorously as they simultaneously replied.

“That’s true.”

Malaka couldn’t help but think not long after their response.

‘Hey, shouldn’t you comfort me instead?’

Though, she quickly put those thoughts behind and turned to Calina as she asked.

“Then again, Calina, tell us more about the sensation. I want to know. Qia always refuses to tell me how it went with Rean. You’re my best friend. You won’t keep me in the dark, right?”

“This…”

How could Qia talk about something that didn’t happen? That’s why she always refused. Calina then thought how Malaka always told her everything, so she felt conflicted about sharing her experience in the open like that. Though, in the end, she lost to Malaka’s insistence and told the two girls everything in detail. Of course, there were parts where only when they passed through the same experience would they understand.

By the time Calina had finished recalling the scenes, both Malaka and Qia were looking down at the floor as steam came out of their hot heads. Calina then looked at Qia with a puzzled and still red expression, asking.

“I can understand why Malaka’s like that, but why are you acting like that? It’s not like you don’t know how it goes since you have a lot more experience with that, right?”

Malaka immediately raised her head and looked at Qia. As for Qia, she looked away, trying to avoid the two girl’s gazes. Little by little, Malaka and Calina’s pressure increased. Something was definitely fishy, especially since Qia always refused to comment about it. Eventually, Qia couldn’t hold back anymore and yielded to the pressure.

“Alright! Alright! We haven’t done it, okay?! We had never had sex before, not even once! It was all a farce, A FARCE!”

Calina and Malaka were taken aback, with one of them asking in response.

“And you kept pretending that it happened until now?”

Qia nodded, ashamed.

“I didn’t want to risk losing Rean to someone else, okay? So, I never tried to clear things up. As long as the others thought we had a real relationship, no other girls would have funny ideas towards my Rean. That was all.”

Qia then proceeded to explain why she and Rean married. It was a way of joining both sides through political relations between the Sasamil Imperial Family and the Dalamu Sect. Ever since then, Qia had tried to get Rean for herself in the truest meaning of words. Unfortunately, due to the twins’ past, Rean had always refrained from touching her. Only after the Sunkan Planet exploded did she understand why Rean didn’t want a relationship.

“I see…so that’s why.”

Malaka and Calina couldn’t help but feel a little sad for Qia. After all, she had been trying for so long. Up to now, Rean hadn’t yielded to her actions. However, it was then that Malaka remembered something.

“Wait, just a few moments ago, Rean grabbed you and gave you a kiss. If there’s no need to pretend anymore, why did he do that?”

Qia then got embarrassed as well as she replied.

“The fact is that it took me this long to overcome my sorrow from what happened in Sunkan Planet and my family. Rean noticed that as well, so he had never tried to force anything. Today, after seeing Calina going all out for her love, I noticed how idiotic I was acting. First of all, Rean and Roan were related to what happened, but they definitely didn’t do it on purpose. That being said, I decided to attack once again.”

Qia then remembered that scene while she continued to talk.

“However, it is as you said, Malaka. We already know everything, so if we insisted on it, it’s because we accepted the future consequences. It was not like Rean didn’t like me, but that he wasn’t sure if I hated him for what happened instead. A few moments ago, when he kissed me, it was because I took the first step and told him that I still wanted him. And so…he let go of his worries and accepted me as well. Well, we were already married, so the fake relationship just simply turned into reality. It’s just that we haven’t had the…you know.”

Malaka obviously understood what she meant.

“So…Calina was the first one to lose her virginity, huh?”

Calina didn’t know whether to laugh or cry. This wasn’t a title she felt happy to hold.

“Just don’t talk about it anymore, okay?”

Malaka nodded before looking at Qia, asking.

“But…you do want to do it with Rean, right?”

Qia was speechless with Malaka’s straightforwardness. This girl really didn’t hold back with her words.

Suddenly…

*Bang!*

The door of the room was opened with a kick, which immediately caught the girl’s attention. Rean then strode inside with a dark expression, prompting one of them to ask.

“Wh-What’s happening? Enemy attack?”

The girls quickly got up, ready to battle if necessary. However, Rean ignored Malaka and Calina before grabbing hold of Qia’s hand as he said. 

“Come! It’s now time!”

Qia’s expression was that of confusion as she asked.

“Time? Time for what?”

Rean then looked at her with an angry expression as he replied.

“Do you think I can accept an ice block like Roan losing his virginity while the nice guy, me, is still craving his wife’s body? I can’t accept that! Let’s go! It’s baby-making time!”

All the girls’ expressions went bright red once again. However, before Qia could say anything, Rean activated his Enhancement Skill before disappearing from the room. At the same time, Sister Orb’s voice echoed in everyone’s head.

[Oh, it seems like I need to prop up another soundproof barrier. Oh, well. So be it.]

Rean slammed the door of another room shut, making sure that no one could pass through it.

Calina and Malaka then quickly came out of their room and looked at the door Rean and Qia went through.

“Is…is she going to be okay?”

Malaka shrugged her shoulders as she replied.

“Well, she accepted him, didn’t she? He also has no reason to pretend that he couldn’t see her emotions. That being said…let the married couple do married couple things…I guess?”

Calina nodded but still felt hot after everything that had happened. Following that, Roan and the others came out of the room as they also looked at the room where Rean and Qia entered.

“Are they doing what I think they’re doing?”

Roan, who never cared about things like that before, nodded as he replied.

“Are you dumb? If not that, then what?”

Roan then looked at Calina with his ice-cold expression. Sure enough, it wasn’t like he would suddenly transform just because of what happened. 

Calina, of course, knew what was hidden behind that poker face, so she didn’t mind. She then smiled before asking.

“What is it? Missing me already?”

Roan got closer to Calina when suddenly, he crouched down in front of her and looked at her belly.

“Wh-What is it? Is something wrong?”

Roan’s dark expression intensified as he looked at her.

“When was your last period?”

Calina almost vomited blood after hearing that. Is that something one should ask in front of everyone? Well, it’s Roan we’re talking about, after all.

“Th… That was around 13 days… ago?”

Roan nodded and asked another question.

“How many days does your period take?”

Calina felt like crying already. Was there a reason to talk about that? The point was that Calina knew little about fertile days and things like that. After all, the last planet and this one were still far from a planet like Earth. Talking about such issues was a very rare thing and kind of a taboo between men and women. Last but not least, Calina was separated from her mother very early due to the Profound Abyss event. Simply put, she had no idea as to what her fertile days would be. Roan, on the other hand, obviously knew very well.

“D-Do I need to answer that?”

Roan nodded with a serious expression, prompting Calina to shyly reply.

“Around 28 to 29 days…”

Roan narrowed his eyes even further. Calina couldn’t hold her curiosity anymore and asked Roan.

“Why are you asking that? Is that a bad thing?”

Roan then got up and began to explain.

“For female humans with period cycles of 28 days or so, their most fertile time would be 12 and 14 days before the next one. That being said, you’re right in the middle of it.”

Calina was taken aback.

“Do-Does that mean I’m pregnant now?”

Roan shook his head as he replied.

“Of course, that doesn’t mean that you’ll definitely get pregnant. Also, those days aren’t iron rules since a woman can get pregnant outside of it. Nevertheless, as far as chances go, we really selected the worst day possible to have sexual intercourse.”

Calina and everyone else were shocked. They didn’t know about this specific information. Roan didn’t stop, though.

“Sigh…the worst part is that I didn’t hold back at all, ejaculating my sperm inside your womb so many times that I lost count.”

Calina almost died of embarrassment after that. It’s really impressive how Roan doesn’t care talking about such topics in front of everyone else. He didn’t even blink!
