"I have been wondering…"
Suddenly, the Male Dragon muttered as he looked at the Beastmen who were helpings Dwarves and were making their homes.
"What?" The Lion Kin questioned.
"How are there so many of you?" The Dragon questioned.
The Union's goal was to improvise their life.
Expanding their territories was one of their goals.
However, they were unable to achieve that goal due to one simple reason.
There were too few of them.
With just 60 men, there is no way they could expand and then defend their territories.
This troubled them.
There were too many Beasts, even though many Beasts were weak, they were still unable to conquer their territories since there were too many of them.
If they attack, they would leave their main territory unguarded and of course, the Union can't lose their base.
Therefore, when he looked at those Beastmen, they were surprised,
"Unlike us, where every single one of us is unique, you guys are different.
See there?" The Dragon then pointed at Two Rabbit Kins playing with each other.
"Those two are exactly the same, same race, same powers, same genders,
How is this possible?"
The Dragon wondered.
Hearing his words, the Lion Kin frowned, he then started looking around and understood what the Dragon was talking about.
Then, his frown deepened,
"Do you guys, perhaps, don't know how to increase your numbers?"
"Huh? There is a way to do that?" Azriel frowned.
"Of course, there is a way to give birth to more people of the same race." The Lion Kin answered and the members of the Union widened their eyes in shock.
"Huh? How do we do that!?" A demon questioned.
The Lion kin looked at the Union members and answered,
"Don't you see it? There is a reason why there are males and females of a single race. What we people do is…"
It was then, that the union members learned about something new.
A new word was discovered.
Mating.
The Beastmen Mated with each other and gave birth to their 'children'.
"Children…"
The Dragon muttered in understanding.
Then, he glanced at the other Dragon and muttered,
"What are we waiting for? Let's start it right now."
"Wait." Suddenly, The Lion Kin interrupted.
"What is it?"
"I have to warn you though, when the female carries the children inside her body, she will be extremely weak and won't be able to move much and since the process takes years, it is better to only do it once you are sure."
Follow on NovᴇlEnglish.nᴇtThe Female Dragon stepped back.
The thing she hated the most was weakness.
"Isn't that simple?" Suddenly, a demon muttered.
"Hmm?" Azriel turned towards him and tilted his head in confusion.
The demon then laughed and pointed at the two humans,
"Humans are already weak, they can barely help us in fights, how about we make them mate? Even if she becomes weak, it won't affect our fighting powers by much.
We can also find out if this method works well for us or not."
The Union members looked at each other and nodded.
The two humans looked at each other and nodded as well.
They wanted to help the Union as well, they wanted to grow as well.
This was a lot better than doing useless labour.
This way, they might open a completely new path for the Union.
"Alright, I agree."
The human female nodded.
"Alright, you two should start now."
The Dragon nodded as well.
"We won't do it in front of you all."
The male human stood in front of the female one.
"Huh?" The dragon frowned.
"Why not?" He questioned.
"Would you do it in front of all of us?" The Lion Kin questioned.
The Dragon glanced at the female Dragon and then, he shook his head.
For some reason, he didn't like the fact that everyone would see them when they mate.
"He is the same, he won't like it either."
The Lion Kin smiled.
"Alright, you two can go inside your house and do it but you have to share the details with us."
"Alright."
The human male nodded.
Then, he grabbed his partner's hand and walked into the house.
Azriel looked at everything that was happening and frowned.
"What about me?" He turned towards the Lion Kin and questioned.
"Huh?" The Lion Kin frowned.
"I am asking how will I mate?"
"Huh? Don't you have your female counterpart?"
The Lion Kin questioned.
"I don't." Azriel shook his head.
The Lion Kin frowned.
"That is not possible. Did she die?"
"No, there was no one, to begin with."
The Lion Kin's frown deepened, and then, he shook his head,
"I am sorry about that, your case is too unique, I do not know how to help you."
Azriel frowned,
"How abo-"
He was about to suggest something, however,
"AAAnnhhh~ It hurts~"
The female human's painful voice was heard.
The Lion Kin quickly rushed towards the house and muttered,
"It is painful at first, continue doing what you are doing, don't worry."
"There is blood coming out!"
The Male human shouted from inside the room.
"As I said, don't worry, it is normal. Just trust me. I am not stupid enough to lie when you people have surrounded us already."
"…"
The human turned silent.
Then, he continued.
Why?
Well, because he trusted the Lion Kin and…
And it felt good…
It was something he has never felt before. A completely new and pleasurable feeling, it was just like the Lion Kin said.
Mating was the act formed by the Creator therefore, it feels so good.
The Creator wanted them to mate.
And that is what he did.
…
2 hours later, the Male Human walked out of his house with a tired look on his face.
"How was it?" The Lion Kin questioned with a knowing smile.
The human smiled,
"Pleasurable…"
"What about your partner?" The Female Dragon questioned.
"She is tired, so she is sleeping." The human answered.
"How long do we wait now?"
A Demon questioned as he turned towards the Lion Kin.
The Lion Kin, however, shook his head,
"I do not know.
As I said, everyone is different, but I think the average time needed is 5-6 years."
"So she would remain weak for 5-6 years?" Azriel questioned.
"Well, it is not like she will carry a baby on the first try. It is a complicated process, so you should continue doing it from now on.
Do it at least once a day."
Follow on Novᴇl-Onlinᴇ.cᴏmThe Lion Kin muttered as he turned towards the human.
"Alright, leave it to me."
The human nodded with a smile.
"Tsk Tsk, just look at you." The Lion Kin teased.
The human just smiled and didn't answer.
The other members of the Union frowned in confusion.
Why the hell were these two people acting so weirdly?
Do they get dumber after mating?
That might be possible.
The Union members looked at each other and nodded.
Mating looks like a complicated and dangerous process, they should let these two humans experiment on it, and only then will they try it on their own.
Suddenly, the Beastmen Males surrounded the human and started questioning, the Male blushed and smiled while he continued to answer the questions they asked.
This confirmed the Union members' doubt.
Mating makes one dumber.
"Oh well, whatever, we have to wait for a long time, let's just not think about it right now." The male Dragon muttered and the rest of the Union members nodded.
Then, with the new addition of the Beastmen, the Union continued their usual schedule.
The Dwarves tried to make new things, the others hunted and the two humans, well, they mated.
Just like this, 9 months passed by and in the Union's repetitive and dull life, something changed.
"Uwaaaaahhhh~~"
A child's cry was heard.
The human female was lying on the bed with a tired look on her face, the human male was looking at the children she gave birth to with a different look on his face.
As for the other Union Members, they frowned.
"What the hell? How is it so fast? Didn't you say it will take 5-6 years? It has only been 9-10 months!"
A demon turned towards the Lion Kin and questioned.
The Lion Kin, however, was looking at the scene in front of him with a shocked look on his face,
"This is ridiculous!
There is no way she gave birth to another human in just 9 months!
How is this possible!?"
"That is what we are asking!" The demon shouted!
"How am I supposed to know it you fool!?"
The Lion Kin shouted back.
"Oi! Can you two shut up!? My child is crying here!"
Suddenly the two of them heard the human's voice and saw him glaring at them,
"Tsk Tsk, so you already became overprotective of him, huh…" The Lion Kin snorted.
A small smile then appeared on the Human's face as he turned toward his child,
"Just look at how cute she is."
The Lion Kin smiled and the other Union members were confused again.
However, in the end, the experiment was successful.
The mating works.
Now, they could expand their territory.
