Chapter 24

Parsed with an automated reader. The content accuracy is not guranteed.

Taizen said that even if we couldn’t have children, we would still be together, but for me, that wasn’t the case, not even a little bit.

When my ex-girlfriend discovered I was sterile, we had many discussions, but she eventually called off the engagement. I’m sure she made up her mind as soon as the test results came back.

She even said some horrible things to me, but in retrospect, my condition was a valid reason for breaking off the engagement. If I had been in her shoes, I would have probably done the same thing. Finally, I had to accept reality and put up with it for a long time.

Even when my parents argued that none of my relatives were infertile, it had to be my fault. My mother nagged me that I wouldn’t be able to give her a grandson. As for my younger sister, she became pale after learning that I was infertile and hurriedly took a test. She exclaimed in relief when she discovered that she was normal.

When my fiancé told me that she didn’t like me from the beginning; I lost sight of the importance of my existence and wanted to disappear.

Taizen’s face shifted from surprise to concern, and he wiped my tears away with his beautiful fingers.

I felt bad for worrying him as I choked from crying because I had decided to talk about my feelings as they came to me.

“I felt like my life was meaningless because I couldn’t have…children, and I was heartbroken.”

Taizen, who had a solemn expression on his face, caressed my cheek gently. My tears spilled over into his large hands.

“That’s why when I found out that I could do it… Yet, But I can’t start a family because I was afraid of falling in love with a man. However, I believed that if I could have a child, my broken heart would be healed… I would be healed by my child, whom I have never met. Finally, I clung to that hope.”

Taizen looked sad.

“But right now, Taizen said that he doesn’t care about children, that he wants to be by my side even if I couldn’t have children… That’s when I realized that those words were exactly what I was looking for.”

Taizen gently hugged me as tears welled up again.

“… I love you, Kouhei. I’ll always be by your side. Even if you can’t have children, I’ll always be with you… I will not abandon you, whom I love more than anyone else.”

Taizen’s simple words and the warmth of his strong body enveloped me in security, bringing tears to my eyes once more.

“… …I’ve finally realized it. My heart, which had been broken by the inability to have children, was filled and healed by having Taizen as an important person in my life. What I truly desired was not really have a child. Since if I were to have one, it didn’t mean that my broken heart would be saved. It seems I’ve made a mistake because I couldn’t see what my heart really wanted.”

I rubbed my cheek against Taizen’s head while tilting my face and crying. His hair was silky to the touch.

“Because of my infertility, I felt rejected by my lover and family… That’s why I wanted someone who would accept me despite my infertility and stick by my side… just having Taizen by my side…is enough… for me.. I am very happy now.”

Taizen tightened his embrace.

“The fact of omega men have a low chance of getting pregnant, was just a passing thought to me. And, I didn’t know that Kouhei was in pain because of your condition. Also, I didn’t know that men couldn’t get pregnant in the world you were in. I’m sorry, I should have paid more attention to this.”

For a moment, I was absent-minded, and then I was taken aback by the Taizen’s gentle words.

While putting my hands on Taizen’s chest, I gently released his restraint and looked into his golden eyes. I wondered if he knew everything.

“The world I was in…” When I said slowly as if to confirm, he smiled gently at me.

“When Kohei was at the Andong’s entrance, I was also nearby.”

I opened my eyes to the shocking truth. By the way, Andong was the name of the village where I was lying at the entrance when I was transferred to another world.

“Nearby …?”

Taizen nodded slowly. My tears have completely stopped.

” Yes. Because you didn’t seem to understand the language, so I cast a language magic on you from afar, but…”

I opened my mouth and quickly pulled the memory of that incident from my head. Certainly, when I awoke at the village’s entrance, I was perplexed because I didn’t understand the language. However, because I understood it right away, I assumed I was tuned to understand the language of this world.

“However, the villagers were discussing how perplexed and terrified you were after being attacked as an Ω. So I decided that it would be best if I, who was α, wasn’t around, so I entrusted it to the villagers. Later, I left the scene.”

I remembered the villagers who were very kind to me. They even provided me with food and shelter for the time being, and when I attempted to return some of the money when I got a job, they assured me that everything would be fine. At the time I thought that the villagers in the other world were very kind, but I wondered if Taizen had given them some money.

“Eh, money… Could it be…?” In response to my hesitant question, Taizen smiled wryly. In other words, he had indirectly given it to me.

While confused by the fact that I didn’t know anything, Taizen gently shook my hands.

“At the time, I thought your outfit was odd. True, some ethnic groups are isolated, and some of them dress strangely. Despite having studied them to some extent, I couldn’t recognize them at all. And when I examined it more closely, it was so elaborate that I could only assume it came from a more civilized world.”

When I was asked to keep the clothes I was wearing temporarily, I remembered unconsciously handing over my own clothes to the villagers. Was it clear from the start that I was an otherworlder with nothing to hide?

“Well, not only that, but I was curious about Kouhei, so I followed you with my gaze every time I saw you in town. But I heard rumors that you hated α, so I hesitated to talk to you… Yet, I found you sleeping in front of the bathroom without any sense of danger.”

My cheeks flushed as he said this with a wry smile. Seeing that otherworldly, carefree person, I wonder what I looked like through Taizen’s eyes.

“…Were you watching over me?” Taizen lowered his eyebrows when I asked timidly.

The 30-year-old male part in the corner of my head said, “Taizen was a stalker,” but the female part of the Ω me exclaimed with joy, “I’m so happy!”

In other words, I was happy.

“Thank you for …….” I said fidgetily, and Taizen looked relieved and smiled.

“Actually, I was going to tell you when we became friends, but it seems like you wanted to keep your origins hidden…”

I wondered if Taizen was aware that I was a mysterious human unlike the others here, but he never inquired about the details and instead remained by my side as a friend.

[Perhaps Taizen’s love and trust for me is deeper than I thought.]

As I was thinking about this, an image of myself with a strong desire to be loved flashed through my mind.

The night before I came to another world, I was drinking heavily in my small apartment. While getting drunk by myself, I had a strong desire to be needed and loved by someone. I had forgotten about it until now, but for some reason, I remembered it vividly.

Then the thought of my power, of being able to use transfer magic, came to my mind. I felt as if I had connected the dots.

I was extremely drunk at the time and had a strong desire to meet someone who would love me despite the fact that I was infertile. Then, for some reason, I may have unconsciously activated the transfer magic that I was capable of using and teleported myself to this world where people would love me. I had a feeling it was the case.

I gently looked up at Taizen and noticed that his lovely face was filled with affection.

[I see. I came to this world to meet this beautiful man.]

Translator’s Notes:

 

Seems like we get the closure about why Kouhei’s transferred to the current world in this chapter. If I were to describe this chapter, I guess it’d be ‘wholesome’? What do you think?
