I Became the Academy's Kibitz Villain [part 1]

Chapter 126: Do Ji-hwan's Ambitious Project (3)

In many countries, surrogacy was defined as illegal, and even if it was legally recognized, there were various restrictions and strict conditions. Even if one actually engaged in such an act, various problems arose afterward.

There were cases where people sought surrogates due to truly unfortunate circumstances, but most tried to resolve the situation on their own rather than involve other people.

But what about this world?

A time when ability users were leading the world.

A time when babies who were not ability users were shunned.

As much as life bloomed when one gave birth to an ability user, humans had also come to have a grotesque thought.

-If the child is an ability user, does it need to be mine?

Oh.

It seemed that not only ability users could be devils.

Human greed knew no end, and humans had always found and created ways to achieve their desires.

-If you use the genes of an ability user to have a child, there's a high likelihood the child will be an ability user?

-S-class children are almost certainly ability users, right?

-So if you ask an S-class to have a child on your behalf, a truly remarkable ability user will be born, right?

While it might be grotesque, it was also an extreme example of human desire.

After all, it was better to have the baby born as an ability user.

Even if the child was not mine, as long as the child didn't know that and supported me in the future, wasn't that good?

Whether it was a surrogate father or a surrogate mother, in the end, if the ability user child and the parents were connected by heart, wasn't that what mattered?

With that thought, humanity had created a way.

They passed a law, treated ability users specially, and made it possible for such acts if the ability user "wanted to".

It was illegal to take the genes of an ability user to make a child.

But it was possible if the ability user was the direct subject.

-Men sow seeds, and women provide the field. And so, all our people will become ability users in 100 years. Tsk tsk. What? Genetic problems? Does it make sense to measure ability users by human genetic problems?

In the name of progress, humanity began to consider the mass production of ability users around 2020.

If an ability user male and an ability user female met, married, and had a child, then an ability user child was born.

"Have you ever seen a horse race? Do you know how the horses in the race are born?"

Someone made an analogy for those who might find the topic uncomfortable or unpleasant.

"They are bred. A stallion with superior genes is used to impregnate a mare with superior genes, resulting in a foal that is born ready for racing, its body prepared from birth solely for running."

Utilization as a breeding horse.

"A mare gives birth to a foal after about 11 months. Even if breeding starts now, it will be nearly a year before a foal is born. I'm not sure if twins are born sometimes, but you know what I mean, right? It's good if twins are born; if not, so be it."

Combination of superior genes.

"A male with superior genes naturally has the duty to spread those genes to many females. To pass on the genes to just one female? Oh, that would be a huge loss to humanity... I mean, to the horse racing world. Therefore, the breeding horse must meet as many females as possible. The male only has to run hard for one night, and then the female takes care of the rest, carrying and giving birth to the foal over the next 11 months."
