323: The permanent solution is infertility

Chapter 322: The Permanent Solution is an Infertile Constitution

Illustration for Chapter 75: Anberer'er Before Her Death

Several hours later, quiet was restored inside the cave.

Wolf Mother transformed back into her human form, an old woman with dry, messy long hair.

The rock walls were covered in claw marks, most of the furniture was completely shattered, and gray-white fur was scattered everywhere.

Wolf Mother slumped onto the sofa that had broken in half, the scarlet in her eyes gone, replaced by a dull, vacant stare.

This state lasted for several minutes before Wolf Mother finally regained her senses. She quickly stood up, looking around nervously.

Looking at her handiwork, Wolf Mother was at a loss for a moment.

"Damn humans, despicable deceivers..."

Wolf Mother cursed the humans while starting to clean up.

She was exceptionally skilled; after several magic spells, the cave became clean and tidy.

Older Snow Wolves, like Humans, suffer from various age-related diseases due to severe physical degeneration.

However, there is one difference from Humans: Snow Wolves do not get senile dementia. Instead, they suffer from a disease called "Elderly Mania."

As the name suggests, Old Snow Wolves afflicted by the disease fall into an extremely manic state, losing all reason, their behavior completely uncontrollable and extremely dangerous.

Especially high-level Snow Wolves like Wolf Mother, if she had an episode, no one would dare to go near her.

The probability of developing Elderly Mania is actually not high, less than 5%, but Wolf Mother happened to win the lottery.

To consolidate her position of power, Wolf Mother deliberately concealed this matter, as someone suffering from Elderly Mania could not be a tribal leader.

Not only that, Wolf Mother would likely be expelled from the Lamos Mountains.

At that time, she would be reduced to a completely lonely old person.

Although her level 69 strength was the peak in the Lamos Mountains, and all Snow Wolves respected Wolf Mother, that was when she was rational.

Once the mania flared up, Wolf Mother would lose all reason and become a mindless brute.

Wolf Mother would not cast magic, have no combat awareness, she wouldn't even dodge, just having an old body, her combat power would plummet.

A few Snow Wolves above level sixty could probably work together to defeat Wolf Mother.

Fortunately, Wolf Mother had only recently contracted Elderly Mania, and the symptoms were still mild, with episodes lasting only a few hours a day.

Moreover, with her strong will and level 69 magic power, Wolf Mother could still suppress it to a certain extent and would not suddenly lose control.

"Damn humans, damn, damn, damn, all humans should be damned, humans should be exterminated!!"

Although Wolf Mother's Elderly Mania had nothing to do with Humans, cursing Humans was a catchphrase she had maintained her entire life.

She would curse a few times when she had nothing to do, considering it a way to vent.

"Now that the blizzard is raging, those few Human villages near the Lamos Mountains should have lost contact with the big cities, isolated and helpless. It's a good opportunity to attack..."

A cruel smile crept onto Wolf Mother's face, and her wrinkles slowly smoothed out.

Among the many foods for Snow Wolves, Humans were undoubtedly the most delicious and nutritious.

Especially newborn babies and pure maidens, their smooth skin, sweet blood, crisp bones...

Taking a bite was pure enjoyment!

At the peak of Wolf Mother's strength, she once ate humans for every meal for a month straight. That was a truly nostalgic time.

...

A day later, the night before departure.

Bit Manor, inside Mina's room, Dick looked at the green liquid in the small porcelain bottle in his hand, his face full of smiles.

Just now, it was time for Xiao Zi to pay rent again. It was very impressive, once again exceeding expectations, squeezing out six drops of Purple Longevity Divine Liquid!

More each time, and better quality each time!

Although the main reason was that he raised it well, Xiao Zi's own talent and effort were also very important, after all, the yield of Purple Longevity Divine Liquid completely depended on its mood.

If Xiao Zi was in a bad mood, feeling uncomfortable and wanting to cry every day, it would produce at most two or three drops of Purple Longevity Divine Liquid each time.

"Xiao Zi, I've decided to shorten your one-month confinement by half as encouragement."

Hearing this, Xiao Zi, who was originally a little weak, immediately raised its flower bud and shouted: "Yay, Dad is the best~!"

Mina gently wiped Xiao Zi's stem with a wet towel, a gentle smile on her face. She felt like this was a warm family time for a family of three.

Xiao Zi called her mom and Dick dad, the titles were completely established.

Thinking, Mina pursed her lips again and looked at Dick, wondering when her belly would show some movement.

Dick always said wait, wait until everything settled down, but in Mina's opinion, it seemed far off.

Originally, Mina thought that after Dick subdued Alice, they could live a stable and wealthy life in Bison Territory, but then he ran off to the Royal Capital to study.

Becoming an Elite was already promising, but then Dick went to participate in the Underground City Championship.

After winning the Championship, Dick was already a household name in the Aimiya Empire, and was even granted the title of Earl, with land, power, and money.

These achievements were things Mina never dared to dream of before, but Dick was still not satisfied, getting involved in the Magic Innovation Project and signing up for the Class B Special-grade assessment...

Having ideals and pursuits is a good thing, but Dick was too proactive, his path seemed to have no end in sight.

In this case, when will things finally settle down?

When will she be able to get pregnant and become a real mother?

Every time before and after, Dick would cast contraception magic, three times repeatedly, every time seriously. Why was he so cautious?

Could it be that Dick was just making excuses to fob her off from the beginning, and actually didn't want to have children with her at all?

Suddenly, Dick, who was talking to Xiao Zi, raised an eyebrow, because he noticed that below the "Twisted Witch" task, Mina's avatar was flickering.

No, it had completely darkened.

"Xiao Zi, go back into the egg first, Dad needs to talk to Mom alone."

"Oh?"

Xiao Zi tilted its head, and soon puffed out its cheeks, pouting: "Dad, you're going to bully Mina Mom again, aren't you?"

"?"

Dick was a little confused.

"Just use the big black stick and fiercely..."

Before Xiao Zi could finish, Dick speechlessly stuffed it into the artificial egg, and also cast a restriction spell.

"Don't bully Mom, domestic violence is wrong, if you have anything, come at me, I can also..."

Finally, Xiao Zi's shouting stopped abruptly, and Dick firmly closed the artificial treasure chest.

Because it was raised by a stupid fox, Xiao Zi lacked common sense, and coupled with its extremely low emotional intelligence and thick skin, it often spoke without thinking.

It seemed necessary to find time to educate it.

After all, the person who interacted with Xiao Zi the most was Mina, who was melancholic and easily had problems like last time.

But Xiao Zi didn't say anything stupid just now, so why did Mina start showing a yandere tendency again?

"Let's go to bed and talk."

To deal with Mina, Dick chose a zero-frame opening, after all, there was no trouble that one shot couldn't solve.

If there was, then two shots.

However, Mina stood still, just staring straight at Dick.

Dick's eyes narrowed slightly, realizing that things were not simple. This might be the biggest challenge for the "Twisted Witch" task so far.

"You're going to cast contraception magic again, aren't you?"

With only zero point one second of reaction time, Dick understood what was going on and quickly found a countermeasure.

After so many lifetimes of getting along, as soon as Mina spoke, Dick knew all the meanings within and without her words, and even predicted what she was going to say next.

"No," Dick ignored her resistance and forcibly put his arm around Mina's shoulder, "If you don't want to, then I won't cast it."

Hearing this, Mina's eyes trembled, and then she said joyfully: "Really?"

"Really."

"!!!"

Mina was extremely excited, hugging Dick tightly, her voice trembling: "To, tonight you are not allowed to be outside..."

Before Mina could finish, Dick kissed her, his actions serving as a good answer.

After millions of years of evolution, intelligent beings' research on reproduction had almost reached its peak.

Humans, who loved pleasure, had developed hundreds of contraception magic spells, in various forms, and Dick, who feared childbirth, naturally mastered all of them.

If he wanted to, he could completely perform contraceptive measures without Mina knowing, because the object of contraception was himself!

With the help of "Perfect Coordination," using clever magic, Dick could easily deactivate his billions of offspring, right inside his body, without anyone knowing.

Afterward, he would just find an infertile constitution as an excuse, solving the problem once and for all, and Mina would never be troubled again.

Of course, Dick would also release some false hope, claiming that the infertile constitution could be cured in other parts of the world, so that Mina would not despair.

In fact, this so-called infertile constitution could disappear at any time, not only making the crisis controllable but even using it to his advantage!

Tonight, the wind and snow outside the window were particularly wild, but far less so than Mina, who finally fell asleep just before dawn due to exhaustion.

After tucking Mina in, Dick slowly walked to the window and looked at the white snow outside.

In the upper left corner of his vision, below the "Twisted Witch" task, Mina's avatar had returned to normal.

Not only that, the green was much brighter than before, glowing brightly.

From now on, Mina's yandere problem should be eased for a long time, and the three-year task deadline is much closer.
