Compared to Field’s awkwardness, Liyakade seemed much more at ease.
Not only did she look healthier than she had in the afternoon, but she also felt more relaxed mentally.
More importantly, she didn’t feel any physical discomfort from excessive friction at all.
After all, that part of a girl’s body is quite important.
No matter how strong the desire or stamina, too much friction can still be uncomfortable.
However, Liyakade didn’t feel that way.
She even felt a faint warmth in her lower abdomen, which was very pleasant.
But when she thought about the possibility of getting pregnant, the comfort faded a little.
Liyakade and Field went to the bathroom together and quickly washed up, then changed into new clothes.
Just then, there was another knock at the door.
“Liyakade, it’s time for dinner.”
Alice’s voice came from outside.
“Wait a moment!”
Hearing Alice’s voice, Liyakade opened the door without thinking.
Before Field could cry out in surprise and stop her, the quick-handed Liyakade had already opened the door.
“Is something wrong?”
Liyakade turned her head slightly after opening the door, asking in confusion.
“…No, it’s nothing, it’s just…”
Field’s mouth twitched a little.
If it was just coming to get close to Liyakade alone, Field wouldn’t feel guilty at all.
After all, Alice had also come alone in the afternoon.
But what happened with Field and Liyakade wasn’t just simple intimacy—they had gone deeper.
It was an experience the two of them had never shared before.
If Field enjoyed Liyakade alone first, even Alice would be a bit upset, right?
“Eh? Field, you’re here too. Perfect, let’s all go to dinner together.”
“Alright, sure.”
Seeing that Alice hadn’t noticed anything strange, Field breathed a small sigh of relief.
“Liyakade, why do you look more energetic somehow?”
Alice stared at Liyakade’s face, blinking in confusion.
When she visited in the afternoon, Liyakade had seemed a bit down, but now she was glowing.
“Ah, because we just…”
“Ahem.” Field quickly tugged on Liyakade’s pinky finger, interrupting.
“Maybe it’s because Liyakade just took a bath?”
“Hm? Why the sudden bath?”
Alice seemed to sense something was off.
“Because she sparred with Sistem this morning, right? Bathing afterward is normal.”
“This feels weird. Very weird!”
Even if she bathed because of fighting with Sistem, there was plenty of time in the afternoon.
Why did she only go to bathe right before Alice arrived, and not earlier or when Alice was there?
Alice walked further into the room.
A faint, unique scent lingered in the air.
It was Liyakade’s scent—Alice knew it well.
Alice glanced around, spotting the messy bed and the clothes the two had tossed on top.
In that instant, she understood exactly what had happened.
“Field, you traitor! You ate without me!”
Alice puffed out her cheeks in anger, pounding Field’s fragrant shoulder with her little pink fist.
“But isn’t it common knowledge…”
Alice had meant to say that everyone knew Liyakade could get pregnant.
But realizing that would expose the fact they already knew, she quickly changed her words.
“…How could you eat without me? What if Liyakade’s body was affected!”
“And the most important part… you didn’t even invite me to join! Unforgivable! You got all the fun!”
“So the main issue was not including Alice…”
Liyakade felt a bit embarrassed.
“And you too! Liyakade! You just did it the day before yesterday, then fought with Her Highness Sistem this morning, and now you’re letting Field eat again—why don’t you take care of yourself!”
Alice turned and scolded Liyakade, pointing at her.
“Uh… In our race, eating only makes us stronger…”
“No excuses! You should still have some restraint!”
In truth, Alice was just worried that Liyakade might get pregnant.
But since she thought Liyakade didn’t know she knew about it, she was being more subtle.
After that, Alice glared resentfully at Field.
Even though she knew Liyakade could get pregnant, Field still couldn’t control herself and wanted to ‘play music’ with Liyakade.
Field was just too immature!
Liyakade, too—why didn’t she try to stop it?
“I really didn’t want to, but… the mood just carried me away…”
Field explained awkwardly.
But in the end, it was still a failure to control her own desire.
“Sigh, you two…”
“Actually, there’s good news as well.”
Field suddenly remembered the original reason she came here.
“Liyakade, tell her.”
“So sudden?”
“Didn’t we just agree?”
“Alright, alright…”
“What are you two talking about?”
Alice watched the two acting like they were playing charades and asked in confusion.
“Alice.”
Liyakade took a deep breath and called Alice’s name.
“Yes? What do you want to tell me?”
Alice responded.
“Even though you seem to already know, I still have to tell you myself.”
Liyakade paused, then continued.
“Actually, our race can have children with girls.”
Even though she had said this several times before, Liyakade still felt a little shy whenever she brought it up.
“So… I can become pregnant with your children.”
“Eh?”
Alice was surprised—not because Liyakade could get pregnant, but because Liyakade suddenly chose to tell her.
She had thought, given Liyakade’s attitude earlier that morning, that she’d hide it for a while longer.
She hadn’t expected such a confession now.
“I-I know already!”
Alice was a bit flustered by the sudden confession, but even more so, she was happy.
“Really, from now on, can you tell both me and Field about important things like this directly?”
Alice was a little displeased that Liyakade hadn’t told them right away.
She gently took Liyakade’s small hand and squeezed it, her voice softening.
“No matter what it is, you can rely on us, okay? Just like with the Irina Zi incident before.
No matter what happens, we can always work together to find a solution.”
“Mm!”
Liyakade nodded vigorously.
Listening to Alice’s words, she remembered the scene when she first crossed over to this world.
Back then, she had been completely alone—her adoptive father and adoptive mother had abandoned her, and she was used as a tool by Irina Zi.
In such isolation, it was Alice and Field who believed in her and helped her.
Now, they had escaped those dangers.
Having survived such hardship, she should trust them even more with things like this.
“Thank you, Alice. I understand.”
Liyakade replied as she gripped Alice’s jade-like hand in return.
“That’s more like it.”
Alice instantly smiled, glancing at Field as well.
Although the whole ‘eating alone’ thing still annoyed her, since Field had already encouraged Liyakade to confess, she’d forgive Field this time.
Besides… Alice wanted to have a taste someday, too.
“Alright, then let’s go eat dinner, Liyakade, Alice.”
Field linked arms with Liyakade.
Now that everything was out in the open and the misunderstandings were cleared, it was time to happily go eat dinner.
“Sigh.”
Liyakade interlocked fingers with Field, glanced at her, and sighed helplessly.
The warm feeling in her belly still hadn’t faded.
“We just checked and there was no pregnancy, but now we have to check again.”
“No, even if we didn’t do it, you’ll still have to check again in a few days.”
Alice shook her head.
“Eh? Why?”
Liyakade was puzzled.
“Liyakade, you really have no common sense.
If another girl tried to trick you, who knows how many kids you’d have by now.”
Field teased Liyakade from the side.
“T-That would never happen!”
At these words, Liyakade blushed in embarrassment.
“So why is that?”
“In most cases, even if a girl is going to get pregnant, you can’t tell the day after.”
Alice explained to Liyakade.
“Even I know that much. Liyakade, you really are a dummy.”
“Ah, I guess that’s true…”
Liyakade was a little embarrassed, realizing she really had been in too much of a hurry.
“Let’s wait ten days or half a month and then go to the Church for a check-up.”
Field suggested.
“At that time, the three of us can go together.”
“Mm-hmm…”
The three of them walked hand in hand down the corridor, with the housekeepers they passed greeting them respectfully.
From time to time, some of the housekeepers would secretly envy the strong ‘friendship’ between them.
But, it was not friendship.
