ALSAR ( Part 01)

Chapter 102 : Iam's Fruit Crash Course

T/N:  I want to clarify that Ren won't be getting pregnant in this novel. The concept is there but the author for some reason didn't give us any story about Ren's children. I guess we need to make do with Spica and Altair only...

Chapter 102 : Iam's Fruit Crash Course

ーーーーーーーーーーーーーーーーーーーーーーーー

"Umm... There's something I want to ask..."

"Yes? If you don't mind me answering, I'll answer any of your questions."

We arrived home just before the clock hit 19:00. I had already bought some food on my way home in the market so I didn't need to prepare anything for dinner today. I quickly voiced the thing I was curious about since I had time to spare.

I asked Fer-san, who was sitting next to me in the living room. Why Fer-san? It was simply because he gave me the vibe of a teacher the most out of all of them.

"Erm... It's about Marcel-san from before... He just found out about his pregnancy but he said the due date should be in December, right? Just how long is the gestation period?"

"Let me see... About 6 months after you used iam fruit. Is it different in your previous world, Ren-kun?"

Fer-san tilted his head to the side as he asked. His silky hair, which was not tied up as usual, was flowing beautifully according to his motion.

Ah, I knew it... There's so many things I still don't know about.

"Yes. Well I didn't really pay attention to anything related to pregnancy before but if I'm not wrong, the gestation period is more or less 10 months."

"Oh? That's quite long, huh."

"It must be difficult if it's that long~"

I only knew the general knowledge about the gestation period. It'd be strange for a male college student to know about pregnancy in detail if they weren't aiming to be a doctor after all. Surely a lot of people only had the same degree of knowledge as I was. Sig-san and Chris-san who were sitting on the rug looked surprised at the difference in the common sense between here and there too.

"And then... You know.... Since only men and women can have children together, so I'm wondering how it works exactly between.... Men..."

Aaaaahh.... Somehow I feel so embarrassed! Why do I still have to take sex education at my age?!

"Ah now that you've said it... First, I will give you a brief explanation about iam fruits. Ren-kun, what do you actually know about iam?"

"Errr... Iam is managed and cultivated by the church and if married couples take the fruit and split it between themselves, they can get pregnant. Even in the case of people in polymarous relationship, one iam fruit is enough to induce pregnancy as long as they pick it together and the fruit effect last for a week. Whether you actually conceive or not, it all depends on your luck. I think that's about everything I know."

Suddenly, Fer-san shifted his body so now he was facing me. He looked at me directly in my eyes as he asked me a question. I told him all the things I remembered from my conversation with Malik-san.

"I see. You're right but let us delve even further today."

"Yes. I'll be in your care, Fer-san."

Fer-san began to speak with a serious expression on his face, making him look like a teacher. Somehow I felt like I was being weirdly transported into a classroom with Fer-san as my teacher.

"If you have any question in the middle of my explanation, please do not hesitate to ask it right away. First of all, iam is a bicoloured fruit about the size of a fist and the two colours are beautifully and vertically divided right on the center."
