Chapter 868

"Broly belongs to everyone, and his Happiness Points are provided by everyone too. You've occupied him in your world for so long — is that right? Is that fair to us?"

Although life in the Type-Moon World was pleasant, the atmosphere in the Crystal Palace Group Chat gradually grew tense; remarks like this had already begun to appear from time to time.

"Hmph, Broly is stranded in our world because our world has two new Capture targets. He stayed to continue developing the Crystal Palace, for everyone's sake — not because we're keeping him from leaving out of selfish desire. So if you want to blame someone, blame your own world for not producing new Capture targets————"

Rin Tohsaka blocked them back with words like these.

"Broly, give a straight answer — when do you plan to come to Master's world?"

Aqua couldn't win the argument, so she directly @-mentioned Broly.

"Broly, if the Crystal Palace doesn't keep the water level even, it'll catch fire. Why not come to our world and lay low for a bit? After all, our world has the most wives."

Hestia also sent him a private message, and this wording was the result of discussion with Freya.

Facing the increasing number of wives @-messaging him privately, Broly also stated his position: "When Capturing new Capture targets, there's a period of rapid Happiness Value increase. I want to wait until this increase period ends and the Happiness Value growth approaches stability before leaving, and that time is coming soon————"

It opened, and time sped up as well————

After Broly sent out Gray and Artoria's Happiness Value increase curve graphs, the other worlds' Wife Groups gradually united, wanting to jointly verbally abuse the Type-Moon World Wife Group — that tense atmosphere finally eased.

"Broly, bring everyone over to London on this side."

"Bring them over to do what?"

"We've already agreed — during this time before you're about to leave, we'll be even more intimate with you."

"But haven't we always been very intimate?"

"Still not enough. Because we each have our own lives, the time we're intimate with you has become somewhat fragmented. We're preparing to take a leave of absence for a while, everyone will live together. During the day, we won't obstruct you from raising Gray and Artoria's Happiness Values, but at night, it'll be everyone's turn to increase Happiness Points production with you."

Facing Broly's imminent departure, Rin Tohsaka mobilized her own world's Crystal Palace members, having everyone put down their daily lives first to prepare for a communal living arrangement.

Broly didn't refuse, only he didn't divide day and night by who he belonged to; instead, he pulled Gray and Artoria in to live the communal life together.

"Consider it early adaptation to our big family's lifestyle."

Broly went to invite them, and Gray didn't refuse.

And after buying a villa in the London suburbs and a group of people moved in to start communal living, Gray also witnessed another side of Broly.

If before, the two were in a sweet romance — the version that plays normally on TV during daytime hours 0

Then now, it's entered the adult version that can only air in late-night slots. In just two days of communal living, Gray completed a life-stage graduation, and even Artoria prematurely fulfilled some of the obligations a wife should fulfill after joining the Crystal Palace.

And this situation of prematurely consummating the marriage also gave both of their Happiness Values an explosive growth.

Must say, especially since both Gray and Artoria like Broly rather than dislike him.

Of course, Artoria still had some complaints. After all, when they previously met at the hotel, this guy had properly put his own clothes back on, saying he'd wait until she was truly willing, then let her undress him again.

But the result? Not long after, she was stripped bare as a lamb, directly eaten clean by the other party, and with a group of people watching.

Although, she quite enjoyed the process of being eaten clean herself.

"Today's theme is swimsuits, everyone change into swimsuits together~"

Summer, poolside, the Type-Moon World Wife Group changed into various swimsuits, wanting to compare whose swimsuit had more Charm.

The Referee is Broly, and he doesn't need to give scores — he only needs to use actual action to express his liking for someone's swimsuit appearance.

A swimsuit exchange meeting quickly turned into an intimate exchange meeting in swimsuits by the pool.

"yue~"

Just when it was Fujimura Taiga's turn, this wife who is a teacher suddenly started dry-heaving.

"Fujimura-nee, are you okay?"

Broly was startled by her dry-heaving and immediately stopped all movement.

"I'm fine, just recently don't know what's going on, I'm comparatively sensitive to scents."

Fujimura Taiga waved her hand.

"Come to think of it, I seem to have a bit of that too."

Little Sakura also had the same feeling.

"Mm, and suddenly like eating sour things."

Ryougi Shiki added a sentence.

"Wait, your reactions — how are they just like you're pregnant?"

Kokutou Azaka subconsciously blurted it out, and then everyone froze.

"This seems to be pregnancy, right?"

Asagami Fujino said carefully.

"Quick, stop chatting, let's go check."

A swimsuit exchange meeting abruptly halted; after going to the hospital for examination, they discovered Fujimura Taiga, Little Sakura, and Ryougi Shiki were already pregnant.

"Judging by the timeline, it was obviously the first time — Fujimura-nee, Little Sakura, Ryougi...

"

Asagami Fujino looked at the three with some envy.

"Not necessarily only them, you all get checked too."

Aozaki Touko said.

"Huh?

"

"No protection at all, and high-frequency marital acts — maybe others are pregnant too, just later, so no reaction yet."

On Aozaki Touko's advice, the others also got checked, and then Rin Tohsaka and Asagami Fujino discovered they were pregnant too, just for a shorter time, but this still brought smiles to their faces.

"Broly, there's our child in my belly — want to touch it?"

Rin Tohsaka walked up to the Saiyan youth and asked.

"Sure."

Broly nodded and placed his hand there, but for some reason he became cautious, as if touching something fragile, afraid to use too much force, even though he couldn't sense a second presence inside Rin Tohsaka's body.

"Don't be so careful, this is probably just an embryo forming."

"Oh."

Broly used slightly more force, but only to the extent of patting a head.

"Hey, how come I feel like you've gone dumb?"

After returning home, Broly's behavior of touching this pregnant wife's belly and that one's in the car made Rin Tohsaka unable to hold back a retort.

"I————"

Broly didn't know how to answer; upon learning Rin Tohsaka and the others were pregnant, his mood was complex, somewhat anxious, a bit worried.

"Please don't make things difficult for Mr. Broly, he's still a child."

Medea walked over and defused the situation for Broly.

"A child nearly two meters tall?"

"I've never seen a child twenty-three centimeters tall either."

"No, is your twenty-three centimeters serious?"

Everyone laughed for a while, and didn't make things difficult for Broly anymore.

"Medea, do you know what I should do now?"

Broly walked up to Medea and began consulting this Heroic Spirit wife.

"Pregnancy isn't something you can help with; what you need to do now is actually only one thing."

"What?"

"That is, make the others who aren't pregnant yet get pregnant too — for example, I also want a child~"

The exchange continued, just with fewer deeply participating members who were already pregnant.

"I'll explain the situation to the others and stay behind to take care of you for now."

After the exchange ended, Broly put his arm around Fujimura Taiga, who hadn't participated in the deep exchange, and said this.

These words were also for the other pregnant wives.

"What you say really reassures me, big sister, but you wanting to stay — probably won't work."

"Hm?"

Broly looked at Fujimura Taiga in confusion.

"Is it possible that other worlds have people too?"

Ryougi Shiki softly voiced this overlooked blind spot; from her tone it should be the Root personality who came out, yet she was gently touching her own belly as if she could see through the skin the little life gestating inside.

"Uh————"

One sentence startled the dreamer awake; Broly quickly asked in the group chat room whether wives in other worlds had any physical abnormalities.

【Why do you ask?】

【92】【Does not being able to eat lately count?】

【Does not being able to eat lately Count?】

After a round of dialogue, wives who realized something quickly sent question marks and exclamation marks.

Finally, wives from different worlds tested their conditions in different ways.

And the wives confirmed to be pregnant numbered a full 12.

Main and Akame from the Akame ga Kill World, Yunyun from the KonoSuba World, Cronier from the Star Cup World, Holy Son of Heaven and Tenkō Kisara from the Black Bullet World, Roxy and Alice from the Six-Faced World, Iwayama Huangquan from the Food Spirit World, Ais, Ryu, Riveria from the Reverse World.

Adding the five from the Type-Moon World, excluding Xiao Yu, among the ninety-one Crystal Palace members who had actual skin-to-skin contact with Broly, 17 had conceived.

【Broly, Yunyun's pregnant, aren't you coming back to see?】

【That's right, a pregnant wife needs her husband's company most!】

——

Aqua and Megumin sang in harmony.

【You two don't be like this, Broly's busy too.】

Yunyun instead admonished them from below.

【Busy with what, busy keeping other world wives company? Hmph, don't forget, we count too.】

The KonoSuba World wife group started a group; other worlds didn't back down either — pregnant wives spoke up themselves or other members of the same world acted as mouthpieces; regardless, the goal was only one: make Broly come to their world and stay for a while.

The Type-Moon World Crystal Palace members weren't many, but a full five were pregnant; clear-eyed people in the Crystal Palace could all see why, yet they also wanted to replicate it, using the reason that pregnant wives need their husbands' company.

Facing the Crystal Palace situation exploding like a hot oil pot, Broly didn't know what to do either; he wanted to accompany pregnant wives, but the problem was he couldn't.

He was only one person, but eight worlds needed him to accompany pregnant wives; even if the Tiger Talisman could split him in two to act, six worlds would still be uncared for, and moreover, after splitting into good and evil halves, the evil half didn't know how to care for people, completely unable to put anyone at ease.

Not knowing what to do, Broly threw the problem into the group chat room, letting everyone in the Crystal Palace discuss together.

Rather than racking his brains alone, better to seek help from everyone in the Crystal Palace; once the problem was out, the noisy arguers also stopped arguing.

Everyone understood arguing wouldn't produce a result; rather than waste time quarreling, better to pool ideas and find a method everyone was satisfied with.

The Clone Technique was mentioned first, but unfortunately Broly didn't know it; he could only rely on the Tiger Talisman to cut himself into good and evil sides.

As for the Adventure Chronicle World's Clone Technique, he had trained it into the Three Heads Six Arms Technique, miraculously effective when wives ganged up to beat him, but powerless against the situation of separately being in different worlds needing his company.

After the Clone Technique idea failed, Aozaki Touko brought up the Magic Doll method, saying if she cut off pieces of Broly's soul and put them inside, she could distribute life-size simulation figures of Broly to the worlds needing him, and they'd be usable ones at that.

However, the usable effect was only accepted by a small portion of wives, but rejected by most; the companionship effect though was welcomed by many wives.

Unfortunately, when Aozaki Touko returned to her doll workshop and tried to make a Broly simulation doll, preparing to cut off some of the youth's soul, she discovered she couldn't cut it at all — Broly's soul was too hard; Aozaki Touko used all her tricks but couldn't budge it a bit; the simulation doll companionship plan was declared a failure.

【I have a method too, our world's biotech is powerful, maybe we can clone——】

Room 10 Director's dangerous idea was just spoken when it was directly passed over by everyone else in the Crystal Palace.

【You talk about splitting souls into dolls for company, I can tolerate that, but what the hell is cloning, is that still Broly? Sorry, I can't accept it.】

In the Crystal Palace, there are still quite a few wives who hold fundamentalist views on matters of the heart.

【Then what about using the Cross-Border Gate to take turns crossing into our worlds?】

【One crossing costs 1250 Happiness Points; if the frequency is too high, it consumes too many Happiness Points, unless the Cross-Border Gate continues to upgrade and lowers the crossing fee and stay fee.】

【Can it be upgraded?】

【125】 【It can, but the Cross-Border Gate is currently Lv. 4; upgrading to Lv. 5 requires 160 million Happiness Points.】

Yes, but the Cross-world Portal is currently Lv. 4, and upgrading it to Lv. 5 requires 16 million Happiness Points.

Broly's answer made everyone fall silent; this was obviously not something achievable in a short time.

【Then how about taking turns staying in each world for a period of time?】

【That is a method, but everyone knows in their hearts that having Broly come to our worlds is absolutely not just as simple as wanting him to accompany those who are already pregnant; I suspect quite a few people also want to have a child of their own, right?】

【Miss Roxy, since you understand, that is enough.】

【I understand this point, so I must propose it even more; in the future, the number of people who become pregnant will definitely only increase, and the number of people needing Broly's company will be the same, but if it goes on like this, Broly won't be able to do anything else and can only revolve around us.】

【Is that bad?】

【It is good, but I know for certain this will make him very tired, and moreover, right now it is only the pregnant wives who need their husband's company, but in the future it will be the born children who need their father's company; everyone, do you only care about the present and not the future?】

【So, what do you mean?】

【Everyone save your existing Happiness Points and go all out to upgrade the Cross-Border Gate; as long as the gate's level goes up and the cost drops, us visiting each other in our respective worlds won't that become an effortless thing that we can casually afford, just like how everyone can now casually bear the Group Chat Room's expenses? Then, if you want to bring the kids to find Broly, you just come find Broly; isn't that better?】

【You make it sound easy; you are already pregnant, I am not yet.】

【Don't rush, I haven't finished speaking; those who need Broly's company can just move into the Crystal Palace.

Crossing into the Crystal Palace, as long as you don't go out and stay stranded in an Isekai, you only need to pay a single crossing fee.

Although the Crystal Palace's environment still doesn't compare to our respective worlds, do you need a good environment just to communicate?】

【Then the company————】

【Not needed; they just have children, it hasn't reached the big belly stage yet; when the belly gets big, that is when they will need care.

Besides, those asking for company to help speak up — do they really want company, or are they using the pretext of company to have Broly go to their worlds and do naughty things with them?】

Roxy's words quickly took over the Group Chat Room; Crystal Palace members from different worlds were all watching, weighing the pros and cons.

And with the first person voicing agreement, the rest followed with a pile of "+1" replies; Roxy's handling counted as the best.

【Broly, go back to your own world early and accumulate energy for transmigrating to the New World; you have to take care of many wives and children in the future, hurry up and upgrade the Cross-Border Gate.】

【As for the older and younger sisters who have pregnancy needs, you can set a time to go to the Crystal Palace Space together and properly discuss pregnancy matters with Broly.】

In the Adventure Chronicle World, Xiao Yu secretly read the Group Chat Room's contents and couldn't help but sigh: "That Miss Roxy is truly powerful; compared to a certain Water Goddess who self-identifies as the Crystal Palace Main Wife, she has far more of a Main Wife vibe~"
