The next day.
The adventurer kitted out their gear and went to search deep in the forest where the orphans had not returned.
The village adults, too, found it unusual but not unheard of for children to go out of the village and not return.
There were over forty orphans. They all didn’t return at once.
To investigate the cause of their not returning, someone lodged a request for investigation at the adventurer job placement center, crowding the reception early in the morning.
The investigation fee and reward were low. However, it was a matter of the village’s survival. If the payments for everyone present were combined, it would amount to a considerable sum.
“We’ll be the ones to get the information ♪”
“You seem to be over your hangover, alright.”
“You bet ♪”
The investigation request stipulated that the payment would go to the individual or party that brought back the most accurate information.
Reading the request details and payment conditions, the adventurers headed one after another towards the depths of the forest where shooting stars were said to have fallen.
“Is your gear alright?” the adventurers’ exclusive arms and armor shop called out.
The village was lively from the morning. The residents, who had heard the rumors, nodded in understanding.
The merchant, whose pockets had become fatter after unloading his goods in this village, set off with a party of five who had accepted a guard request, unconcerned with the commotion.
Those who did not accept the investigation request busied themselves with pest control in the fields.
Others went into the mountains to gather wild vegetables.
Those remaining in the village were occupied with household chores, indoor work, or enjoying their day off.
◇◆◇◆◇
In the forest. Searching for fresh tracks, they pursued.
“It disappears around here.”
Others found the same.
“I don’t think they went any deeper.”
The adventurer looked into the dense, dim forest, even though it was daytime.
If it was a man, perhaps. But a girl, she wouldn’t dare step foot in here.
“…Shall we go?”
The adventurer resolved to go.
But even if they went deeper, there would be no clues.
This was because.
They hadn’t even noticed the girls from the orphanage were nearby.
“Sniffle,” “Boo hoo,” “Why…”
“They came to help ♪! Rescue has arrived ♪!”
The girls’ hopes were high.
But the adventurer, oblivious, headed deeper into the forest.
Into the depths of the forest where monsters roamed.
They were in a sorry state, but wanted to be saved from this situation.
“Nggh!?!”
Their now free mouths were forced open.
It was a branch. Not a root, as it wasn’t meant to steal nutrients, but to give them.
Sweet tree sap seeped from the tip of the branch.
The branch had gone down their throats so far, they had to drink even if they didn’t want to, or breathing became difficult.
“Gurgle, gurgle!?”
From evening until now, the continuous flow of tree sap down their throats was agonizing.
Help had come, but they hadn’t noticed. Was this what despair tasted like?
Most of the girls, wearing a manic smile and with vacant eyes, stared at the branches stuffed into their mouths.
A great tree. A big tree.
This tree was the source of their suffering. A monster. An enemy. Why us.
Various thoughts surfaced, and anger and disappointment welled up at the adventurer’s expression from earlier.
“Mmmph ♡! Mmm—mph ♡!”
The only male survivor. And the one who had peed in their stomachs, the terrible guy. Bound by multiple branches, he was doing terrible things to his friends. Being poured onto with urine.
For some reason, after being moved to the base of the tree, we… just and were left to suffer with branches shoved into our mouths, neglected. If they’re going to neglect us, I want to go back to the village. I don’t want to be sticky with sweat and urine. I want to bathe.
“Hic, why… *gag*.”
“Mmmmmmh!? Mmnh!? Mmmmmh!”
So, he’s finished peeing.
The boy tried to say something to his friend. What was he trying to say when it was his turn? An apology? Or that it was the tree’s fault? Next… who will suffer? Being neglected makes time feel slow, and it’s boring. It’s not pleasant watching friends being abused, but it makes time pass faster. About an hour?
Rustle.
Rustle.
“Hic, stop it! Nggh.”
Ah, next up is Lena-chan, who was planning her future carefully.
I thought she wasn’t down below, but she’s still up there. Last night, she was shouting about help and the future so fast I thought I wouldn’t be able to sleep.
My future? I can’t achieve that in this situation.
All my friends here, like me, their futures are already…
“Aaaaargh”
Lena-chan and the boy look like they’re grinding their groins together.
As the branch was swayed up and down, the boy penetrated Lena-chan with his dick.
Huh, at first it was just painful, but then… the depths of my stomach started to feel hot. While making strange noises, I couldn’t think about anything else anymore ♪♡ Looking at it, I want to scream, “Do it for me!” ♡ My groin is starting to tingle too ♡ But now that I’ve been brought down and neglected… the dick has to wait…
“Eek! Take it out already!”
Why can Lena-chan and the others still get that dick?
I want it so badly… Hmm, mmm.
Rubbing my thighs together… stops the tingling. But only a little.
Give me the dick already! ♡ My dick… ♡
The adventurer didn’t even notice ♪.
As expected of my magic ♪ It’s barrier magic now.
Convenient. Invisible and inaudible from the outside. And I don’t notice *her* peculiar scent either. I feel like calling you impotent, ha ha ha ♪
Ahem.
The stud is smoothly continuing to release his seed that violates the eggs of the women.
But, the uterus isn’t ready to become female yet? It’s not sending signals to promote ovulation from the ovaries.
Well, if the other women build up their bodies smoothly.
I’ll possess those bodies, and not as a child’s dick.
I myself will carve a real man into my body ♪.
With possession, I know whether there are fertilized eggs.
This is, well, my way of killing time. And for the humans of this country too.
To investigate that their erogenous zones are the same and their sensitivity is the same.
It’s a two-birds-one-stone kind of act where I can confirm and kill time simultaneously ♪.
It’s just that I don’t like that it’s not my dick.
“Mmmmmmh ♡! (Tremble)”
“Aaaah! (Shudder, Thud)”
So, he’s ejaculated. The woman today… possession. Oh dear, the eggs haven’t come out yet.
Well then, please rest until the next turn ♪.
“Please. Please.”
From the hollow of the tree, I praised him with my voice. But perhaps overcome with ecstasy or escaping reality, I received no positive reply, just like yesterday.
Among the women below, some are happy when I try to lift them up. Hurry up and find peace.
“Help me, help me. Please.”
There are two kinds of words I can speak. Ah, I wish we could communicate faster.
I want to break their wavering hearts with words and my dick ♪!
It takes a considerable amount of time for the body to form.
However, if I possess them and steal the woman’s nutrients, I can be born by thrusting myself out from the inside, like some life form.
But, I won’t do that yet.
This time, I will fulfill my dream!!
For that purpose, this great tree will be my vessel body for a little longer.
It will be after I assess how effectively the adults who came to search for the brats I killed and the women I used as nurseries can perform.
Then, my acting skills, upon gaining a body, will be flawless.
Invade densely populated areas, blend in. Violate women from within, and spare men who seem likely to become my collaborators. Perfect. I’ve been alone so far (as a man).
But, in this new operational base.
I will chase my dream with other men besides myself!!
“Heeeelp!!”
