Kelly Isaac. A Bull Ogre standing three hundred and ten centimeters tall, twenty-nine years of age.

Formerly a Heavy Infantryman, he currently serves as the Squad Leader of the Crossbow Corps within the Northern Legion. Once hailed as a future Ace Knight, he actually met the breakthrough requirement for the Rock God Dungeon—the credential necessary to earn the Ace Knight title—during his assessment exams about five years ago. However, he was disqualified on suspicion of collaborating with other candidates mid-exercise.

Since then, he has been transferred to the Crossbow Corps and has barely engaged in any frontline combat. He hasn't submitted an application for the Ace Knight exam since that time.

As a squad leader, he is exceptionally competent; leveraging his raw strength and street smarts, he has safeguarded his subordinates on numerous occasions, earning him deep trust and respect within his own unit.

Alongside Anzeros Squad Leader from the Escort Infantry, he is widely regarded as the most promising candidate for promotion to Centurion in the upcoming reorganization.

Should that happen, discussion among relevant personnel centers on whether his new hundred-man squadron will become the second division of the Crossbow Corps or revert back to Heavy Infantry duties.

Provided he commits no major derelictions worthy of demerits in the near future, there's no particular reason to doubt his aptitude for becoming a Centurion.

—The above concludes this year's Celesta Military Personnel Investigation Report.—

◇◇◇

"Even though you're an exceptional soldier... yeah, being strong is good. But I didn't think my son would still be a virgin right up to age thirty!"

"W-what the hell?! So what if you'd rather he'd gotten some notoriety as a rapist since his teens instead!?"

"Do you really see no middle ground between 'virgin' and 'rapist'?"

"Don't call me a virgin with those words, Mom! And besides, it's from your mother!"

"Haa... I suppose I won't get to see my grandchild's face then."

Her mother, Dorothy Isaac, sighed wearily.

The Bull Ogre colony in the northern sector of the Great Desert Dungeon is an extraordinarily peaceful place.

Though they look genuinely terrifying with their bull-like forms, these ogres display devilish ferocity against enemies yet remain kindhearted and simpleminded toward the weak, especially children.

They hunt without cruelty, kill without wantonness, and stand together when trouble strikes.

The Great Desert Dungeon offers no survival for those who rely solely on brute strength, technical prowess, or intellect alone; however, so long as they support one another, it provides abundant living resources through an excellent food chain auxiliary system.

Consequently, the numerous colonies scattered across the desert dungeon maintain relatively harmonious relations, frequently visiting each other for trade, proposing joint monster-hunting operations, or exchanging labor for carpentry and irrigation projects.

Amidst such camaraderie, Kelly became a beloved figure among the children.

Occasionally held are morning bazaars rotating among each colony.

"Aaaah!!"

Kelly was lost in thought, gazing peacefully at an oasis, when one of the dwarf children spotted him and hurried over.

"It's Red Bull Man!!"

"Oh, Jonathan-sensei's kid. You're doing well?"

"Ohh!!"

Grabbing at his oversized tank top and scrambling up the fabric to perch atop Kelly's shoulder, the dwarf child did so without a care for being clutched. Kelly didn't mind in the least and readily endured the athletic display.

"Red Bull Man's arm muscles are insane! They're as wide as Tower-san's belly!"

"Hah-hah-hah, no one can beat me when it comes to power—I'm still the same old me."

Puffing out his biceps exaggeratedly, his already thick arms swelled even further. Truly log-like limbs that would make any ordinary human lose all fighting spirit just at the sight of them.

As he engaged with the dwarf child this way, children from other foreign races began gathering around Kelly one after another. Since the dwarf was someone Kelly had known since before enlistment, he wasn't scared; however, the others hesitated whether it was appropriate to approach such a colossal bull ogre they'd never seen before.

"Red Bull Man, do this thing!!"

"That's 'that thing', huh. Alright then."

Goading by the dwarf, Kelly rose and raised both arms high with a "Funnun!", striking a classic muscle pose.

"Oooohh!!"

"This old man looks so strong! Probably stronger than Girard-san, huh!?"

"Nah, let's do it again! One more time!"

"Huahahaha, alright then! Funnu!"

Muscles bulging, arm reversed and flipped downward into a pose. Next, he gripped his wrists, hunched sideways with his ribs drawn in, knees bent slightly—posing like the pro. "Double biceps! Rat spread! And side chest! …Once you've got these poses dialed in, you're officially a man!" "Hahahaha, stupid—" "Don't call me stupid! Say I'm a macho man!" "I'll ride along too!" "Sure thing, hop on! Even if all of you piled aboard, it wouldn't matter to this hornless bull!" "Amazing! The Hornless Ogre is amazing! He's leveled up again—power boosted!?" "Yep! Last time he was just a squad leader, now he's upgraded to captain rank!?" "No way! He's getting even stronger!?" "Heh heh heh... if he keeps going like this, the dungeon won't hold him!" Kelly dashed around the oasis, dangling children from his arms and neck and horns, their tiny bodies bouncing in time with his stride. The kids shrieked with delight. Finally, he cannonballed into the oasis, swept up the tumbling little ones with both hands, and set them all atop his chiseled chest like passengers on a boat. "Woohoo—" "W-whoa!" "Hahahaha—" Then Kelly paddled with a powerful frog kick, propelling the oasis forward. The children erupted in joyous cheers. "Heyyy!! Kelly, don't endanger those kids' safety!" Dorothy scolded him from the shore, selling skewered hellboar on a grill nearby. "Yeah, but you guys kept egging him on—" "Don't blame us for Hornless Bull's recklessness!" "We aren't going to let you off that easy!" The kids and Kelly laughed uproariously as they circled the oasis in a swirling whirlpool of fun. Kelly loved nothing more than making children laugh. That was why he remained wildly popular among young ones and their parents, regardless of race. "...Really. There's nothing wrong with being so charming to all those kids." Dorothy sighed deeply despite her affection for her son; he needed to shape up. If he couldn't pull through, the lineage would end here. Her heart ached with longing for grandchildren—her worries ran deep.

Night fell.
The bull ogre colony had settled into silence; shops closed, streets quiet. In the Isaac household, Dorothy murmured softly while rubbing lotion bought from another race onto her skin. "I'm thinking... maybe I should remarry Gerald after all?" "!" Kelly jolted upright. "M-Mom?" "What's the problem?" "But he's my age..." "And I'm still forty-three, aren't I?" "Hmm..." "Well, if you're going to be so useless, we'd better just start anew. You won't give me grandkids with your current attitude. My bloodline can't stop here."

"Mom..."

It was a subtle question: was she pushing Kelly on for his own good, or was this serious? The line felt thin.

Truth be told, Mom wasn't quite there yet in terms of needing a replacement. But Kelly's father had died hunting monsters when Kelly was still a boy.

To begin with, Bull Ogres are kinda loose about relationships. Even if Gerald, an old friend of Kelly's, came on strong to Dorothy—who, given her years, could still be called beautiful—it was perfectly normal for a Bull Ogre.

Dorothy wasn't the type to hound men relentlessly, but as long as Kelly kept proving himself pathetic in matters of the heart, she couldn't exactly fault Mom for wanting grandchildren with someone a few decades younger than him.

"Uuun..."

"If you've got even a little hesitation on it, just go off and lose your virginity to some random girl around here."

"B-Bah! What are you saying?! It's like I'm doing public urination!"

"Not that different. When you feel the urge, you release. And from there, life can spring up. So what's the difference exactly?"

"Mom, I don't wanna think that kind of stuff grew out of me..."

"The ground's waiting for seeds and fertilizer too. Just go sleep with someone tonight. How many single women do you think are hanging around in this colony?"

The Bull Ogre colony suffers from a severe shortage of males. While it sounds like a harem setup when you hear that, the gender ratio can easily hit three-to-one, which means "harem" doesn't even cover how complicated things get.

Bull Ogre men's libido isn't exactly low, but the females—powerful and tough—are far more driven by desire. Once a Bull Ogre woman catches fire, it's over; she'll keep a man running around so much they change rivers in a single night.

Given that, male shortage becomes a critical problem.

Originally a minority group, women who want children above all else rarely let men go free. But even though the men side operates on social norms close to free sex, they can't spread themselves too thin across multiple partners. Women end up left over.

In a situation like that, guys like Kelly become almost bizarre creatures—past being mere slackers.

"But still..."

"How about we try hitting on Martha-chan?"

Martha Merlitz was Kelly's first love, the girl who'd been swept away by another man ten years ago. Now she's a mother of two.

"Bah! Doesn't Martha have a husband already?"

"If you're so hung up on her, go steal him from under his nose, you idiot. If it's some other dude, he's got more women to screw in the meantime."

"I can't tear apart someone else's family. I want Martha to be happy..."

"Aaaah, enough already! Get out! Don't come back until you've stuck your dick in a woman!"

Mom was dead serious. No matter how ridiculous it sounded, there was no way Kelly could go against her, the mother who'd raised him alone since he was four. She kicked him into the night outside, and he stumbled off into the darkness.

"...Maybe I shouldn't have gone home for the holidays. Should've headed back to the barracks."

Once Mom started speaking her mind, there was no going back. He probably wouldn't be allowed inside for a few days.

Even so, the option to go hunting women wasn't available to him at twenty-nine and completely inexperienced.

The next day.

"...Maybe I should cool things off here."

Kelly had retreated into the dungeon.

Camping in dungeons was second nature to him. From childhood until his enlistment in Celesta's army, he'd been hunting Hell Boars right here.

Dealing with entire swarms was one thing, but facing just a couple of them? The current Kelly could probably handle them bare-handed.

"...About a month left before vacation ends... How long should I sulker around here? It'd be more fun spending time with my comrades and kids back at the colony."

He counted on his fingers, trying to calculate when Mom's anger would die down and how long he could afford his own "fun homecoming" period. His outlook was pretty bleak.

"...I'm not saying I don't want a girlfriend or marriage... but still..."

However, as Mom pointed out, Bull Ogre society is always more like a raid than anything else.

Which meant that even if he somehow found a suitable partner here, getting married would essentially mean being immediately usurped while he was still committed to his military career.

The shock of discovering the person you thought you'd marry and wanted to be with turned their smiles toward some other man... Kelly couldn't forget that feeling. He'd managed to brush it off at the scene with a nervous laugh saying, "Well, there's nothing I can do," but once home, he spent about a week bedridden, brooding and weeping uncontrollably.

That was when he realized he was actually far more delicate than he'd like to admit, with a possessive streak a mile wide.

If someone stole her from him again, he felt sure there would be no recovering this time. Compared to that, maybe just letting himself wither away was the lesser evil.

While envy might kindle a fiery resentment within him for Arnie or Andy, Kelly is fundamentally a man who cannot believe in being "rather himself."
"……Man, that's boring."
Sitting amidst a fire stoked with the burning stones he'd scavenged from everywhere, Kelly wrapped his arms around his knees. The figure didn't quite match the image of the strongest male in the Bull Ogre colony, standing at a staggering 310 centimeters tall.

A few days later.

"Is it about time to head back now...?"

Confirming that morning light was filtering down through the skylight, Kelly threw off his covers and sat up with a groan of effort.

Whoosh! Suddenly, his hand brushed against something soft nearby, crushing it slightly, which made him jolt backward in alarm.

"Oof!?"

Lying there was a dust-covered non-human being.

"……Oh no..."

The creature bolted upright with a sudden movement.

And then—

"……No way. Bro Kelly!!!"

"Gah, whaaaa!?"

That non-human gazed at Kelly intently before leaping onto his neck.

A swishing tail slapped against the air as it trembled.

"Br-bro K-Kelly...?"

A teenage girl with the features of a werewolf beastkin.

Kelly hesitated for a moment, lost in thought.

"……Ah."

"Remembered?"

"You're from Old Man Zenga's place!"

"Yeah! That's my granddaughter, Kate!"

Within the Great Labyrinth of the Desert lie numerous colonies inhabited by various races.

It could be said that almost every race besides humans resides there.

Among them was a single colony of werewolf beastkin.

Though they aren't part of the merchant guilds that hold morning markets, so one rarely spots them, they do occasionally make their way over to the Bull Ogre colony now and then.

"Why are you here all by yourself like this?"

"Came tracking down Bro Kelly."

"How...? Anyway, wasn't it already nearly ten years ago since I last played with you?"

In Kelly's memories, little Kate was still barely out of infancy back then.

But right now, Kate had grown into a proper young girl. She's gotten quite tall and developed considerably.

"Heh-heh. ...Finally caught up to you."

"W-what bad timing! I thought it was because I'd returned to my hometown... and—"

"Yeah. I lost track of you since leaving Queenica and looked for you non-stop. Sometimes I even feared you'd died."

"Wait."

Five years ago, when Kelly was still a heavy infantryman stationed in the capital city of Queenica...

"You've been looking for me from when I was in Queenica? So you've been searching for this whole five years!?"

"Yeah. Since Bro Kelly lived there back then, I lived nearby too?"

"……Whoa, no way. For real?"

"But Mom told me not to ask you out, saying you're at a critical time becoming an Ace Knight, so I've been waiting..."

"..."

"But, younger brother, you almost made it as an Ace Knight once. I thought you'd take the exam again the next year, but you didn't show up. So I waited for the next one, then the one after that... but when you disappeared and I realized you were gone, I came back to the dungeon looking for you, only to find you weren't there either. Then I went to Queenica wondering if maybe you were still there, but you weren't there either."

"W-wait, wait, I get it now... but why?"

"I made a promise to you, you know. To become your wife."

"Eh?..."

He desperately traced through his memories.

No, there was no need to dig that deep. There are children just like that.

There's the kid who plays with Kelly, looks up to him, and asks to be made his wife sometime.

Kelly's answer is always, "Yeah, when you become a good woman."

"...So that means... I believe in it?"

"Yeah. Werewolves are serious about their promises, absolutely."

"..."

"I'm going to be your wife, younger brother. And once you say I'm a 'good woman,' the promise will be perfect. I'll make lots of your children. I'll be a great mother."

Kate wagged her tail rapidly back and forth.

She was incredibly cute.

But...

"Damn, that's impossible."

It was very touching that someone would say such sweet words at this time, but an ogre's penis isn't something other races just casually accept.

For starters, it's as wide as a woman's arm. If the size was reasonably mini, there might be some compatibility, but Kelly's member was by no means small even for an ogre standard.

But...

"It'll be fine."

Kate grinned brightly and started undressing.

Kelly, who had never seen anyone other than Diane and his mother naked before, turned bright red. He was a virgin.

She unbuttoned her short vest and tore off the cloth wrapping her chest, then peeled away her loincloth in one motion. She wasn't wearing undergarments. She couldn't wear them.

That's because something massive and rigid, fitting snugly over what is literally as wide as a woman's arm, was buried within her.

"Oi! Wait a minute!?"

"Hehehe... To become your wife, I need to fit inside you properly, so sister made it for me, and it's in there now."

"W-wait, hold on... seriously..."

"Werewolves take their promises absolutely seriously. I've been slowly adjusting myself, and now it fits just this much. I can keep my promise. I can give you a kid, younger brother."

Due to the fundamental difference in their linguistic structures, Kate's speech was slightly awkward. Precisely because of that, Kelly went completely white at her incredibly direct advances.

"W-why... are you so... into me?"

"I'll absolutely keep my promise."

"Promises... and..."

"Werewolves take their promises absolutely seriously. That's why I don't make promises lightly, do I?!"

"..."

"I was born specifically to bear your child, younger brother. I truly felt that deep in my soul back then."

"S-such a little kid... saying such things?!"

"Werewolves believe intensely in fate. I sensed it myself back then."

"Fate...?"

"Big brother, haven't I failed to become a good girl? Am I just trash to you?"

"You're a good girl, really a good girl... but..."

For someone like myself, who'd already too easily abandoned my first love, those words weighed too heavy.

Before Kelly could say that much, Kate cut him off and kissed him until her nose and mouth were buried in his giant lips.

"Mmh... mmmh. Promise... perfect."

"Ehh..."

Kate had never intended to listen anyway.

While kissing, she fished out her latex condom from the packaging and tossed it far away—as if saying I don't need this anymore.

"Big brother, I want lots of your seed right now. Right now I'm in a huge heat, probably for good."

And so, the naked beast-girl rubbed her hips against Kelly's massive erection on her own.

"Haa... haa..."

She pressed her slick fluids onto the crotch of his pants with an unmistakable squelching sound—a proactive advance from a woman that was almost too forward even for a mating arrangement typical of bull ogres, expecting them to reject her out of hand. Kelly finally made up his mind at this unprecedented display unique to cross-species attraction.

"...H-hey... are you serious? Are we actually going through with it? I don't know how to handle women!"

"Yeah. I don't either. Do whatever you want."

"...Okay then."

"Hurry up and do it!"

Completely flushed red from arousal, her slick fluids smeared on his crotch, her tail wagging wildly behind her, even telling him to hurry up—it was too late to run now.

Still holding some small bit of guilt in his heart, Kelly thrust that gigantic cock into Kate's vagina.

"Nn-h... ghk!!!"

Kate jerked backward from the impact.

Surely width could be accommodated with stretch, but depth? That's a different matter entirely.

The bull ogre's member was about halfway inside the wolf beast-girl's crotch before meeting resistance.

"Gh... aaah..."

Kate looked like she was going blind, her eyes rolling back as if strung on a skewer for execution.

As for Kelly, at the verge of thirty for the first time touching a woman's vagina, he hit the brink of climax instantly overwhelmed by overwhelming emotion.

"Oh fudge..."

"Aa, hah... big brother, more..."

"Kate?"

"...More... do more... use my pussy...?"

Even as she was stabbed repeatedly by that impossibly thick and rigid member, Kate smiled with genuine satisfaction.

"Indeed... your cock is so good... even better than I imagined..."

"..."

"I've been waiting for this forever... waited a lot... wondering if we could have kids like you—a horned one—or maybe even a wolf-beast-girl... feeling sad imagining being impregnated, having your cock inserted again and again after birth, wanting it while giving birth too... I've thought about all that. I want you to soak my pussy in your cock even more. I want to live with your cock inside me."

"...H-hey, are you okay?"

His broken Japanese made him almost doubt he was losing his mind for a second. But Kate was just speaking on impulse.

"I finally got your cock inside... I want so much more of it. I want you to fuck me even harder—so hard that you push the baby back into my womb, so hard that you force the child out of my mouth! I want my body to be nothing but a container for your cock!"

"Nn-um, I'm kinda confused but don't say anything more gory than this."

"Yeah... then shut me up. Shut me up with your cock."

"...Kuh..."

"Big brother, haven't I failed to become a good girl? Am I just trash to you?"

"You're a good girl, really a good girl... but..."

For someone like myself, who'd already too easily abandoned my first love, those words weighed too heavy.

Before Kelly could say that much, Kate cut him off and kissed him until her nose and mouth were buried in his giant lips.

"Mmh... mmmh. Promise... perfect."

"Ehh..."

Completely flushed red from arousal, her slick fluids smeared on his crotch, her tail wagging wildly behind her, even telling him to hurry up—it was too late to run now.

"Nn-h... ghk!!!"

"Nn-um, I'm kinda confused but don't say anything more gory than this."

"Yeah... then shut me up. Shut me up with your cock."

"...Kuh..."

It feels like I'm being cornered, more and more taken to task, and forced into situations I have no choice but to accept.

Yet it felt good.

Kelly was so deeply wounded that he couldn't even justify a single act of sex without being told what to do.

"Mmm, ku... ah, gaah! Gafu, uu... Breaking, being broken, break me... Break me!!"

"...U, uuhhh..."

Nobody could tell how much of Kate's stuttering was bluff and how much was sincere. And because of that, Kelly gave up on trying to read her face.

He just wanted to savor this shallow, scalding vagina to his heart's content and reach climax.

With that thought, he gripped the girl's body with both hands from midway through, grinding his own softening member against her crotch as if he were using it entirely on his own.

And the wolf-girl took sheer pleasure in that.

"...Kk, uuhhh... It's coming, I'm going to cum...!!"

"Seed... Seed!! Plant Daddy Kelly's seed all over me!!! Just fill me up!"

"...Sorry, let me..." Do it for me!!"

Thump, thump, thump...!!

Kelly's softening member was enormous, and the volume of his ejaculation was no joke.

"Haa... a, aa...! Jor"

Feeling an overwhelming amount of fluid rush in to rape her ovum from his thrusting member, Kate passed out happily, impaled all the way through.

"...U, uwaa..."

And then, with the strangely hollowed-out mood he felt right after ejaculating, Kelly found himself oddly despairing that he'd done something utterly monstrous at the most inopportune timing imaginable.

"So I've finally lost my virginity."

"Kelly. Come here for a minute."

Her iron fist.

"Why the hell were you fucking other races there, you idiot!"

"Ahhh..."

Given Mom's context, it was indeed the right thing to do within the bull ogre colony.

"Daddy Kelly didn't do anything wrong. He did great."

"Haa..."

Mom's worries were deep-seated. She could only worry about her grandson getting exposed in that situation.

"...Mmmph. Hey, Kate! Doing things without my permission... Ugh!"
And then the next assassin aimed for Kelly. Only two weeks and three days left until the end of Kelly's vacation.

(TBC)

Kelly Isaac. A bull ogre standing 310 cm tall. Twenty-nine years old.
Former heavy infantryman. Currently serves as a ten-man squad leader in the Crossbow Corps of the Northern Legion.
Once highly regarded as a future ace knight, he effectively fulfilled the condition for obtaining the ace knight title—breaching the Rock God Labyrinth—during an examination about five years ago. However, he was disqualified on suspicion of collaborating with other ace knight candidates during the attempt.
He was subsequently transferred to the Crossbow Corps and has since seen little frontline combat. He has not applied for the ace knight examination since then.
As a squad commander, he is excellent, using his sheer strength and quick wit to protect his subordinates on multiple occasions. He holds a high degree of trust and prestige within his unit.
Within the Crossbow Corps, he is considered a leading candidate for promotion to hundred-man leader in the next reorganization, alongside Anzeros, the ten-man leader of the guard infantry.
This has sparked debate among those involved regarding whether his future hundred-man unit would become the second battalion of the Crossbow Corps or if he would revert to heavy infantry duties.

Unless there are significant demerits to note in the future, there appears to be no particular reason to doubt his suitability for promotion to hundred-man leader.

◇◇◇

“Even if he’s outstanding as a soldier… well, being strong is a good thing. But I never imagined my son would remain a virgin until he was on the verge of thirty.”
“Shut up! Are you saying it would have been better if he had made a name for himself as a rapist from his teenage years?!”
“Is there really no middle ground between being a virgin and a rapist in your mind?”
“I’m telling you not to call me ‘virgin’! And the one doing it is his parent! His mother, of all people!”
Sigh… Well, I guess I won’t be seeing the faces of my grandchildren after all.”
His mother, Dorothy Isaac, let out a weary sigh.

The bull ogre colony in the northern desert labyrinth was a very peaceful place.
Although these bull ogres looked genuinely terrifying, while they fought like devils against enemies, they were kind and pure-hearted toward the weak, especially children.
They didn’t kill or hunt needlessly. When times were tough, they helped one another.
The Great Desert Labyrinth did not permit survival for those who relied solely on strength, skill, or intellect alone; in exchange, as long as its inhabitants cooperated, it provided ample resources for living, functioning as an excellent supplementary system for the food chain.
Consequently, the numerous scattered colonies within the desert labyrinth generally maintained good relations, frequently visiting one another to trade, proposing joint monster-hunting operations, or exchanging labor for carpentry and irrigation projects.
In that environment, Kelly was a popular figure among the children.

From time to time, morning markets were held on a rotating basis in each colony.

“Aaaah!!”

A dwarf child spotted Kelly gazing blankly and peacefully at the oasis and rushed over.

“Red-Bull Uncle!!!”

“Oh, are you from Master Jonathan’s place? Good to see you.”

“Hey—!”

The dwarf child grabbed the fabric of Kelly’s massive tank top, clawing his way up with frantic energy before springing onto his shoulders. Kelly didn’t mind at all, gladly indulging the kid’s playground antics.

“Just as expected, Red-Bull Uncle has super arms! They’re about the size of Dad’s belly!”

Hah hah ha, nobody beats me when it comes to power, same as always.

Flexing a pectoral muscle, his already thick arm swelled further into what was literally a log-like limb. For an ordinary human, just looking at such an arm would crush their will to fight.

As he entertained the dwarf child, children from other races visiting the village began gathering around Kelly one after another. The dwarf kid knew Kelly from before he joined the army, so he wasn’t scared, but the others hesitated, unsure whether it was okay to approach a giant bull ogre they didn’t know well.

“Red-Bull Uncle, do that thing over there.”

“That thing? Which one? Sure, why not.”

Coaxed by the dwarf kid, Kelly stood up, raised both arms with a “Hnnnh!!”, and struck a muscle pose.

“Whoa!!”

“Uncle looks strong! You’re stronger than Girard, right?!”

“Come on, do it again, just one more time!”

Nuhahaha, you got it! Hnnh!

Arm reversed, palm down, striking a muscle pose.

Following up by gripping the wrist, turning sideways to flex the armpit, and bending the knee slightly for another pose.

“Double Biceps, Lat Spread! And Side Chest! …Once you can nail poses like this, you’re a real man!”

“Wahahaha, you silly old guy—!”

“Don’t call me ‘silly’! Call me Macho-Man!”

“Carry me toooo~!”

“Hop on, hop on! Even if the whole lot of you got on, I’d have room to spare!”

“Whoa! Big Red Uncle is so strong! Did you power up again?!”

“You bet! Last time we visited, I was a Shobei, but now I’ve leveled up to Ten-ninchō, ya see?!”

“No way! Are you getting even stronger?!”

“Heh heh heh. If I get any stronger, this labyrinth won’t hold up!”

Kelly ran a solid pace around the oasis with the kids dangling from his arms, neck, and horns, bouncing along. The children cheered with delight. Finally, he splashed into the oasis, quickly scooped up the kids who had tumbled off with both hands, and laid them across his well-developed chest, making a boat of himself.

“Hoo-ha—”

“W-won’t that do us in?!”

“Ha ha ha”

Kelly paddled through the oasis using only flapping kicks while the kids rejoiced.

“Heeeeere!! Kelly! Don’t put the neighborhood kids in danger like that!!”

Dorothy, who had been selling skewered Hellboar on the shore, shouted at him angrily from the bank.

“Uh, well, you guys kept flattering me, so I got carried away!”

“Don’t pin it on us, Big Red—!!”

“No way—!”

He swam in circles around the oasis with the kids, cackling loudly.

Kelly just loved making kids laugh like this.

Consequently, he was hugely popular not only with young ones but also with their parents, regardless of race.

“…Tch. I suppose you can’t help it if girls only flock to him.”

Though Dorothy found her son endearing in that regard, she sighed, thinking it wasn’t good enough. She really wanted a grandchild. Her worries ran deep.

Night.

The bull ogre colony had folded up for the day and fallen silent.

Inside the Isaac family’s home, Dorothy murmured softly as she applied milk lotion purchased from another race.

“I’ve been thinking… about remarrying Jirard.”

“!?”

Kelly shot upright in bed.

“W-wait, Mom?”

“What? Do you have an issue with it?”

“But he’s the same age as me…”

“And I’m still only forty-three!”

“U-uhh…”

“If you had just a little more backbone yourself…”

“W-what was that?”

“If I can’t count on you to make grandchildren, I have no choice but to make some new ones. I refuse to let the line end here, or my bloodline with it.”

"Mom……"

Was his mother trying to whip Kelly into shape in her own way, or was she being serious? It was a bit of a fine line.

His mother certainly wasn't old enough to wither away yet. But Kelly's father had died hunting monsters when Kelly was still a child.

Bull ogres have always been somewhat casual about the finer points of sex. Even if Dorothy, who remained beautiful for her age, had received an aggressive proposal from Kelly's old friend Gerard, it would have fallen within the bounds of normalcy in Bull Ogre culture.

Dorothy wasn't the type to be obsessed with sex, but as long as Kelly kept proving himself incompetent in matters of the heart, she had no ground to complain about his mother's suggestion that he should spawn younger brothers and sisters to put her hopes into.

"Hmm……"

"If you've got even a shred of feeling left, go lose your virginity with some woman over there."

"What the hell are you talking about! That's like… urinating standing up!"

"Not much different. When you feel like letting go, you let go. Life might sprout from it. See what difference that makes?"

"Mom, I don't want to think I came into existence just by spitting on the ground……"

"Even the earth is waiting for seeds and fertilizer. Get out there and proposition some woman. Do you really think this colony is short of single ladies?"

Bull ogre colonies were male-deficient. Saying it that way made it sound like a harem, but when the sex ratio reached three to one, it was simply too much for a harem to handle.

It wasn't as if Bull Ogre men had low libidos, but the powerful, tough Bull Ogre women had an even more insatiable appetite. Once the fire caught, they wouldn't let their men rest for a night, swapping partners multiple times over.

In that state of affairs, the shortage of males naturally became a serious problem.

Originally a minority, and the women who wanted to ensure they could bear children would rarely let a man go. Even with social norms approaching free sex, the men couldn't just sprinkle their seed on as many partners as they liked. The supply of women was left over.

In such a situation, a man like Kelly—who had transcended merely being frigid and approached the realm of strange creatures—was an anomaly.

"But……"

"Would you go to Martha-chan instead, then?"

Martha Merlitz. Kelly's first love, who had been snatched away by another man ten years ago. She was currently the mother of two.

"M-Martha has a husband."

"If you're going to be that attached, then just take her from him, you idiot. Any man other than you would have taken her, and she'd still be banging around elsewhere."

"I can't destroy someone else's family. I want Martha to be happy……"

"Aah! You're too noisy! Get out of here! And don't come back until you've shoved your cock into some woman!"

His mother was being very serious. While thinking it was quite outrageous, Kelly couldn't go against the mother who had raised him alone since he was four years old, and was kicked out into the night to trudge along dejectedly.

"...Maybe I shouldn't have come home for a visit. Maybe I should just go back to the barracks."

Once his mother started something, she wouldn't listen. He probably wouldn't be allowed back in the house for a few days.

Even so, he was a twenty-nine-year-old virgin who didn't see any option for soliciting sex on the street.

The next day.

"...Maybe I should just cool off here for a while."

Kelly had entered the labyrinth.

Camping in the labyrinth was second nature to him. From childhood until joining Celesta's army, Kelly had been a Hellboar hunter here.

Facing a massive herd was one thing, but one or two was something the current Kelly could handle even with bare hands.

"...One more month until my leave ends. How many days do I need to sulking here? It would be more fun spending time with my comrades and the kids in the colony."

Counting on his fingers, he tried to align the time needed for his mother's anger to subside with what would constitute an "enjoyable homecoming" for himself. He was feeling extremely pessimistic about it.

"...It's not that I don't want a girlfriend myself, and I do want to get married……"

However, as his mother said, the Bull Ogre community was always a battlefield of conquest.

That meant that even if he found a suitable partner here, for Kelly who still intended to continue his military career, it would be like entering a marriage only to be cuckolded.

Kelly never forgot the shock of realizing that the person he believed wanted to marry him and thought he could marry was already smiling at another man. Although he had managed to cover it up on the spot with an "I-I guess it can't be helped" smile, he had spent the week after returning home tossing and turning in bed, sobbing and wailing over his grief.

It was then that he realized he was actually very sensitive and possessive.

He had a feeling that if he were stolen away again, he might not recover this time. If it came to that, dying alone would probably be the lesser of two evils.

Jealousy might occasionally flare up in Kelly against Arnie or Andy, but fundamentally, he is not the type of man who thinks, "It should be me instead."
"...Hah. This is boring."
Using easily available flint to start a fire, Kelly sat alone, hugging his knees. At 310 centimeters tall, this was hardly how one would expect the strongest man in the Bull Ogre colony to look.

A few days later.

"Is it probably safe to head back now...?"

After confirming that morning light was streaming through the skylight, Kelly pushed himself up with a groan of effort.

Just then, supporting his weight on one arm, he nearly crushed something soft, causing him to bounce away in shock.

"Uwao!?"

Lying there was a dirty, dust-covered non-human creature.

"...Tch, ow... that hurt..."

The creature slowly raised its head.

And then.

"...I knew it. Big brother Kelly!!"

"W-Whoa! What the—!?"

Having stared intently at Kelly's face, the creature leaped onto his neck to hug him tightly.

Its tail wagged back and forth.

"B-Big brother Kelly...?"

It was a young wolf-beastman girl, probably in her late teens.

Kelly paused for a moment to think.

"...Ah."

"Do you remember me?"

"You're from Old Man Zenga's place!"

"Yes! I'm his granddaughter, Kate!"

There are colonies of several different races within the Great Desert Dungeon.

One could say that most races other than humans are present.

Among them is a colony of wolf-beastmen.

Because they do not belong to the trading guild that holds morning markets, one rarely sees them, though occasionally they would visit the Bull Ogre colony.

"Why are you all by yourself in such a place?"

"I followed Big brother Kelly."

"What— no, wasn't it about ten years ago when we last played together?"

In Kelly's memory, Kate was still close to being an infant.

However, the Kate before him had grown up into a proper young woman. He thought she had come quite far in her development.

"Hehe... Finally caught you."

"W-Wow, great timing, I'm currently back home for my visit..."

"Yep. Ever since leaving Kuika, I've been searching non-stop. I sometimes thought I was going to die."

"Hold on."

He had been in the capital of Kuika five years ago. That was when Kelly was still a heavy infantryman.

"From when I was in Kuika... wait, you've been searching for five whole years!?"

"Yes. Since Big brother Kelly lived over there, I settled in nearby to look for him."

"...No way, seriously?"

"But Nee-san told me not to speak to you because it was an important time for you to become an Ace Knight, so I just waited?"

"…………"

"But brother, there was once a chance you might become an Ace Knight, and I thought you'd take the exam the next year too, but you didn't come. So I kept waiting, and kept waiting... until I realized you were gone. I thought maybe you had returned to the maze, but you weren't there. I wondered if you were still at Kuika, but you weren't."

"I-I get it, I get it... But why?"

"I made a promise to my brother. To make me his wife."

"……Eh?"

Kelly desperately ransacked his memory.

No, that wasn't necessary. Children like her did exist.

Sometimes, after Kelly had played with them or after they'd gotten attached to him, the kids would ask him to marry them.

Kelly's answer was always the same: "Yeah, just grow up and become a good-looking woman first."

"……So you believed that?"

"Mm. Wolf beast-kin promises are absolute."

"…………"

"I will become my brother's wife. After that, if my brother tells me I'm a 'good-looking woman,' the promise is complete. I'll have lots of children with my brother. I'll make a good mother."

Kate wagged her tail back and forth, pat-pat-pat.

He thought she was extremely cute.

But.

"……No, that's impossible."

While it was incredibly pleasing to hear such words during this period, an ogre's member was not something easily accepted by other races.

For one thing, it was nearly as thick as a woman's arm. With a truly mini-size variant, compatibility might be possible, but Kelly's prized possession was certainly not small by ogre standards.

But.

"It's fine."

Kate smiled brightly and began to undress.

Seeing a woman's nakedness for the first time other than Diane or his mother, Kelly’s face turned red. He was still a virgin.

She untied the short vest and the cloth wrapped around her chest, then flung off her loincloth. She wasn't wearing any undergarments. Couldn't have been.

That's because he had buried within it an extremely thick, prosthesis-like object, truly as thick as a woman's arm.

"H-hey!?"

"Hehe... For me to become my brother's wife, I need to fit my brother's penis in there, so Sister made this one for me."

"W-Wait, hey, seriously..."

"Wolf beast-kin promises are absolute. I've been used to it little by little, and now this much fits. I can keep the promise. I can have my brother's child."

Due to the difference in linguistic systems, Kate's speech was slightly awkward. Perhaps that very crudeness of her appeal caused Kelly’s mind to go completely blank.

"W-why... why do you want that with me so badly..."

"I'll absolutely keep the promise."

"Promises and such are just..."

"Wolf beast-kin promises are absolute. That's why I don't make them lightly, you know?"

"…………"

"Back then, I felt it deep in my heart. I was born to have my brother's children. I truly believed that from the bottom of my heart."

"T-that... a child that small thinking such things?"

"Wolf beast-kin believe strongly in fate. I felt that fate back then."

"Fate is just..."

"Bro, am I a good-looking woman? Am I the bad guy to you?"

"You're a good woman, really... but..."

For someone who had given up on their first love so easily, that statement was too heavy to bear.

Before Kelly could finish the sentence, Kate interrupted him, pressing her nose and mouth deep into his massive lips in a kiss.

"Mmph... mmp. The promise is perfect."

"W... what?"

Kate didn't really intend to hear the answer from the start.

While maintaining the kiss, she pulled the mold out of his hand and tossed it far away. Like she no longer needed it.

"I want plenty of your offspring, bro. I'm in heat right now, crazy strong. Probably gonna stay in heat for a while."

And so, the naked beast-woman girl rubbed her hips against Kelly's member of his own accord.

"Haa... haa..."

Sticky sounds as love juice smeared against the crotch of Kelly's trousers.

It was an impossible situation to describe with a wife-choice marriage system that welcomes any suitor; it was an aggressive appeal from a female, unique to inter-racial relationships. Confronted by this, Kelly finally steeled himself.

"...Y... you... are you really gonna do this? I don't know how to handle women!"

"Yeah. I don't know either. Do whatever you want."

"...I'm okay with that?"

"Then hurry up and do it!"

Being rubbed with love juice, tail wagging by a beautiful girl flushed completely red, and being told to hurry up—he couldn't escape anymore.

Still retaining a slight feeling of guilt, Kelly thrust his massive member into Kate's vagina.

"Mmph...!!"

Kate stumbled back.

The thickness could expand, but the depth was just not going to cooperate.

Kelly's bull ogre member stopped about halfway inside the wolf beast-woman girl's crotch.

"Gh... haa..."

Kate rolled her eyes in a state resembling being skewered on a stake.

As for Kelly, tasting a woman's vagina for the first time as he neared thirty, he was nearly at climax from the overwhelming sentiment.

"Th-this is... bad news..."

"Aha ha... bro, more..."

"Kate?"

"...More, please... use my pussy..."

While being pierced through by the massively stiff member, Kate still wore a smile filled with a sense of accomplishment.

"After all, brother's dick is good... way better than I imagined..."

"…………"

"I waited so long... I've been waiting a lot... wondering if I can have a horned child like you, or maybe a wolf beast-woman, or thinking, 'It's lonely giving birth and having your dick inserted, then giving birth again and having it inserted again. I want my dick while giving birth.' I've thought about that the whole time. Please dip me in more dick. I want to live with your dick inside me."

"...Y... you, are you okay?"

Because her speech was broken into bits, he even suspected a momentary breakdown for an instant. However, Kate was just speaking on impulse.

"Your dick finally came in... please give me more dick. More, I want you to rape me so hard that even after having kids, you shove them back into my uterus, push them out of my mouth. Make my body your container for your dick."

"W... I don't quite get it, but stop saying such gross things"

"Yeah... if so, shut me up. Shut me up with your dick."

"...Guh"

I had the distinct feeling that I was being pressed into a situation where, with every passing moment, my hands were tied and I was left no choice but to continue.

Yet, paradoxically, it felt good.

Kelly was so deeply wounded in her self-esteem that unless she received enough verbal affirmation, she couldn't even justify having sex to herself.

"Mmnh, grr... Ah, gaaah♪ Hghh, uuu... Breaking, being broken, breaking through... break me..."

"...Uu, uuuh!"

It was impossible to tell where Kaito's halting words ended and her bluffs began. Or where the seriousness started. But precisely because of that, Kelly gave up trying to read her mood from her expression.

He just wanted to thoroughly taste this shallow, hot vagina and cum inside it.

With that in mind, partway through, he gripped the girl's body with both hands and, for all intents and purposes, masturbated on his own erection while using the girl's crotch however he pleased.

And the wolf-girl reveled in the intensity of it.

"...Ghh, uu... I'm going to cum, I'm gonna let it out...!"

"Seed... my seed♪ Kelly-brother's seed, spread it everywhere!! Fill me up inside with your seed! ♪"

"...My bad, but I'm... takin' it... for the sake of it, hey!!"

Thump. Thump. Thump...!!

Kelly's cock was huge, and his ejaculate volume was no joke.

"Hiaaa... Ah, ahh...!"

Finding that an overwhelming torrent of fluid was rushing out from the plunged-in member to rape her eggs, Kaito passed out in blissful content while remaining impaled.

"...Uu, uwaa..."

And then, caught in that oddly exhausted state right after ejaculating, Kelly felt a strange sense of despair, realizing he had done something utterly outrageous at an utterly wrong time.

"So, as you can see, I've lost my virginity."
"Kelly. Come here for a moment."
His mother's iron fist.
"Why the hell were you sleeping with a different race right there, idiot!"
"Ah..."
In the context of his mother's argument, it certainly would have been proper to handle it inside the bull ogre colony.
"It's not Kelly-brother's fault. It's really good."
"Haa..."
His mother's worries ran deep. At least she'd get to see a grandchild, though.

"...Hmph, hmph. That Kaito girl, without my permission... tsk!"
And then the next assassin set her sights on Kelly. Three weeks and two days remained until the end of his leave.

(To be continued)

Kelly Isaac. A bull ogre standing 310 cm tall, aged 29.
Former heavy infantryman; currently a squad leader in the Northern Legion's Crossbow Corps.
Once expected to become an Ace Knight, he actually completed the trial of breaking through the Rock God Labyrinth five years ago, but was disqualified due to suspicions that he had collaborated with other Ace Knight hopefuls during the process.
Since then, he has transferred to the Crossbow Corps and hasn't engaged in frontline combat since. He hasn’t applied for an Ace Knight test since either.
As a squad leader, he is excellent; his strength and quick thinking have saved his subordinates on multiple occasions, earning him their trust.
Among the Crossbow Corps, he and Anzeros, another squad leader of the Guard Infantry, are both seen as promising candidates to be promoted to centurion in future reorganizations. There's some debate over whether Kerry’s hundred-man unit would become a second crossbow detachment or return to heavy infantry if this happens.
Unless there is any notable misconduct going forward, it seems unlikely that his suitability for the position of centurion will come into question.

──End of report from Celesta Military Affairs Investigation for the current year.

"Even if you're an excellent soldier... Well, being strong isn't bad. But I never thought my son would still be a virgin at thirty."

"Shut up! So what? Should I have been famous as a rapist since I was in my teens instead?"

"You don't seem to have any middle ground between being a virgin and a rapist."

"Dad, stop saying I'm a virgin!" He yelled. "And Mom too!"

"Hmm... Will I never see my grandchildren then?" Dorothy Isaac sighed sadly.

The northern cow ogre colony of the Desert Great Labyrinth was a very peaceful place.
Though they looked frighteningly like cows, these creatures fought like devils against their enemies but were kind and innocent towards weaker beings, especially smaller ones.
They didn’t kill or capture indiscriminately. They helped each other in times of trouble.
The Desert Great Labyrinth did not allow survival for those relying solely on strength, technology, or wisdom; instead, it provided a rich supply of life necessities as long as they cooperated with one another, making it an excellent system to support the food chain.

Therefore, the numerous colonies scattered throughout the desert labyrinth get along quite well with each other. They frequently visit one another to trade goods or propose joint monster hunting operations, and they help out with labor-intensive tasks like construction work or irrigation.

Amidst this camaraderie, Kelly was a popular figure among the children.

Occasionally, there would be morning markets held in rotation at each colony.

"Ah!!"

One of the dwarf children spotted Kelly idly gazing over the oasis and ran up to her.

"Red Bull-nii-chan!!"

"Oh, it's Jonathan’s kid. How are you doing?"

"Yay!!"

The little dwarf grabbed onto Kelly’s giant tank top, climbed up, and hopped onto his shoulder. Kelly didn’t mind at all and let him have his fun.

"Your arms really are huge! They’re as big around as my dad’s belly!"

“Hahahaha, I’m not gonna lose to anyone in terms of power, as usual.”

As he flexed his muscles, his already thick arms bulged even more. The sheer size of those arms would have been enough to make any normal person lose their will to fight; they were literally like tree trunks.

While entertaining the dwarf child, other children from different races started gathering around Kelly one after another. The dwarf kid had known Kelly before he joined the army and wasn’t scared, but the others hesitated about approaching this unfamiliar giant ogre.

“Red Bull big sis, do that thing!”

“You mean that? Alright.”

Provoked by the dwarf child, Kelly stood up and raised both his arms in a muscle-pose: “Funngh!!”

“Wooooooh!!!”

“That guy’s strong! He’s stronger than Jirard, right?”

“Nope, do it again, one more time!”

“Hahaha, alright! Funngh!!”

He flipped his arms back and down, striking a muscle pose. Then he grabbed his wrists, pulled them in to squeeze his sides, bent his knees slightly, and struck another pose.

“Double biceps, lat spread! And side chest! …Once you can pull off poses like these, you’re officially a man!”

“Hahaha, that’s crazy talk!”

“Don’t call me crazy! Call me Mr. Muscles!”

“Me too, I wanna join in!”

“Yeah, go ahead! We’ve got room for everyone!”

“That’s awesome! Red Bull-chan is so cool! Did you get even stronger?”

“You bet! Last time I was a regular soldier, but now I’m a squad leader and leveled up!”

“That’s amazing! You’re getting even stronger?”

“Kukuku, if you get any stronger, the maze won’t be able to handle it!”

Kelly runs around the oasis with kids hanging from her arms, neck, and horns. The children cheer excitedly. She finally dives into the oasis, quickly scoops up the fallen kids with both hands, and lays them on her well-developed chest like a boat.

“Whoo-hoo!”

“I-I’m so scared!”

“Hehehe”

She paddles around the oasis with flailing legs as the children cheer happily.

“Hey there!! Kelly, don’t put other people’s kids in danger!!”

Dorothy, who was selling skewered hell boars from shore, yells at her.

“Well, you guys got me all riled up!”

“It’s not our fault, red cow!!”

“Stop it!”

She laughed and swam around the oasis with the children, enjoying herself immensely. Kelly loved making kids laugh like this.

As a result, she was popular among both little ones and their parents regardless of race.

“…Really. It’s no good being so popular with just the kids.”

Dorothy thought her son was wonderful but sighed in frustration. She wanted grandchildren. Her worries were deep.

Night fell over the bovine ogra colony, which had settled down for the evening.
In the Isaac household, Dorothy murmured to herself as she applied lotion bought from another race.
“I’m thinking of remarrying Gilard.”

“!”

Kerry jumps up abruptly.

“Hey, Mom?”

“What’s the matter? Don’t like it?”

“But he’s my age…”

“I’m only forty-three.”

“Well… I see…”

“If you were a little more responsible…”

“What do you mean?”

“You’re not going to give me grandchildren, so I have no choice but to make new ones. I don’t want our bloodline to end here.”

“Mom…”

She’s probably just trying to push Kelly in the right direction, but it’s a bit of an awkward situation.

Indeed, Mom is still far from being old. However, Kelly’s father died when she was young on a monster hunt.

Originally, minotaurs are rather casual about sexual relations. Even if Jirard, one of Kelly’s old friends, were to propose to Dorothy with heavy breathing due to her youthful beauty for her age, it would still be within the bounds of normality in minotaur society.

Dorothy isn’t exactly a sexually aggressive type, but as long as Kelly continues to show such lackluster performance in matters of women, she can hardly complain about Mom’s wish to have younger step-siblings.

“Hmm…”

“If you even remotely like any girl, go and lose your virginity somewhere.”

“What the hell are you saying! It’s not like that at all!”

“It’s pretty much the same thing. When you feel like it, do it. Sometimes life comes out of it. So what’s different?”

“Mom, I don’t want to think I came from something like that…”

"Even the ground is waiting for seeds and fertilizer, so get your ass out there and start knocking on doors. How many single women do you think are in this colony?"

The bull ogre colony was short of men. While it might sound like a harem situation, with the male-to-female ratio reaching three to one, it’s far from being just that. Bull ogres aren’t exactly low on libido, but their female counterparts are even more sexually driven and once they get going, they won’t leave you free for long enough to sleep through the night.

This naturally leads to a serious shortage of men.

Originally a minority group, women who want to ensure they have children don’t let go of men easily. Even if it’s close to a freer society, men can only take so many partners at once. As such, there are more women than men.

In this situation, guys like Kelly become almost mythical creatures.

"But you see…"

"Want to head over to Martha’s place?"

Martha Merlitz: the woman who stole Kelly’s first love ten years ago and is now a mother of two.

"B-But, isn’t Martha married?"

"Then go ahead and take her if you’re so hung up on it, idiot. Other guys would just bang any woman who comes their way."

"I can’t go breaking up other people’s families. I want Martha to be happy..."

"Oh for crying out loud! Get the hell out of here! Don’t come back until you’ve stuck your dick in someone else!"

My mother was serious about this. She had raised me alone since I was four, so even though her demands were unreasonable, I couldn’t defy her. So I trudged off into the night.

"...Maybe I shouldn’t have come home. Maybe I should go back to the barracks."

Once my mom made up her mind, it wasn’t going to change anytime soon. She wouldn’t let me in for days. But at twenty-nine and still a virgin, there was no option of sneaking around with someone else.

The next day.
"...Maybe I’ll just cool off here."
I had wandered into the labyrinth.

Camping in the labyrinth was nothing new to Kelly. From childhood until his enlistment into the Celesta army, he had been a hunter of Hellboars here.
While dealing with large groups could be tough, one or two Hellboars were no match for him now, even if he went at them barehanded.
“...I still have another month before my leave ends… I wonder how long I should sulk around here. It’s more fun to spend time with friends and kids back in the colony.”
He counted on his fingers, calculating whether there was a way to combine his mother’s cooling-off period with his own “fun” holiday. He felt extremely pessimistic.
“...I’m not saying I don’t want a girlfriend or marriage either…”
However, as his mother said, life among the cattle-ogres was always a battle of plundering.
That meant that even if he found someone here who would be a good match for him, continuing on in the army like Kelly planned to meant he’d just be giving up his woman to another soldier.
Kelly could never forget how shocked he had been when the girl he thought wanted to marry him suddenly started smiling at some other guy. He had managed to put on an insincere smile and say “Well, I guess there’s nothing I can do about it,” but then spent a week sulking in bed back home.
He realized then that he was actually very sensitive and possessive.
If someone else took her away from him again, he feared he wouldn’t be able to recover. It would probably be better if he just stayed single and alone.

Even though he feels jealous of Arnie and Andy, Kelly isn't the kind of guy who thinks "I wish it were me."

"...Huh. Boring."

While making a campfire with stones he found lying around, Kelly huddled up to his knees. At 310 centimeters tall, he didn’t look like the strongest man in the cow ogre colony.

A few days later:

"Should I be heading back now...?"

After confirming that morning light was coming through the skylight, Kelly got up with a stretch.

Just then, his hand brushed against something soft and squishy, making him jump.

“Whoa!?”

It turned out to be an alien covered in dust.

"...Ow..."

He sat up abruptly.

And then...

"...Just as I thought! Kelly-nii!!"

"Whoa, oh!?"

The non-human girl looked at Kelly's face intently before jumping onto his neck.

Her tail wagged back and forth.

"K-Kelly-nii...?"

A teenage wolf-like beastkin girl.

Kelly pondered for a moment.

"...Ah."

“Do you remember?”

“You’re from Zenka’s place!”

“That’s right! Kate, the granddaughter!”

There are colonies of various races inside the Great Desert Labyrinth.
You could say that almost all races except for humans live there.
Among them was a colony of wolf beastmen.
Since they weren’t part of the trading guilds that held morning markets, you rarely saw them around, but occasionally they would come to the bull ogre colonies.

“What are you doing here alone?”

“I came looking for my brother Kelly.”

“Why…? And isn’t it over ten years since I last played with you?”

Kerry’s mental image of Kate was still that of a toddler.

But the Kate in front of him now was clearly a girl. She had grown up quite a bit, he thought.

“Eheh… I finally caught you.”

“W-Well, it’s good timing, since I’m home on leave…”

“Yes. I’ve been looking for you ever since you left Quica. There were times when I thought you’d died.”

“Wait.”

He had lived in the capital of Quica five years ago, back when he was still a heavy infantryman.

“You said ‘since then’… so you’ve been searching for me for five whole years!?”

“Yes. Since Kerry-nii-san lived there, I lived nearby too, didn’t I?”

“…Come on, seriously.”

"But you told me to wait because it was an important time for Brother to become the Ace Knight, right?"

"..."

"But Brother almost became the Ace Knight once, and I thought he would apply again next year, but he didn’t. So I waited, and waited... until I realized that he had disappeared. That’s why I thought maybe he came back to the labyrinth, but when I found out he wasn’t there, I wondered if he was still in Quillia."

"W-wait a minute, wait a minute. But why?"

"I promised Brother that I would become his wife."

"...Huh?"

I desperately tried to recall my memories.

No, it wasn't necessary to try and remember. Sometimes kids were like this.

Kids who wanted Kelly to play with them and admired him sometimes asked if he could make them his wife.

Kelly’s answer was always the same: "Yeah, when you grow up."

“…Do you mean, I have to believe in it?”

“Yeah. Wolf Beastman’s promise, absolutely.”

“……”

“I’m going to be your wife. All I need is for you to say that I’m a ‘good girl’. Then the deal’s done. We’ll make lots of kids together. I’ll be a good mom.”

Kate wagged her tail.

She was so cute.

But.

“No, it’s impossible.”

It was very nice to hear such words at this time, but an Ogre’s penis wasn’t something that other races could easily accept.

Especially since it was as thick as a woman’s arm. It would only work if the size was considerably smaller, but Kelly’s member was far from small in Ogre standards.

But.

“Don’t worry.”

Kate smiled sweetly and began to undress. It was the first time Kelly had seen a naked woman other than Diane or his mother, so he blushed furiously. He was still a virgin.

She removed her short vest and the cloth wrapped around her chest, then peeled off her loincloth with a loud rip. She wasn’t wearing any underwear; she couldn’t have been.

There was an extremely thick plug inside her, about as big as a woman’s arm.

“Hey!?”

“Hehe… in order to become your wife, I need to be able to take your dick, so I made this for you.”

“W-wait, hey, really...”

“I promise. A little at a time, I’ve gotten used to it. I can fit this now. I’ll keep my word and give you a baby.”

Kate’s words were a little awkward because of the difference in language systems. It was precisely this directness that left Kelly speechless.

“W-Why are you being so…?”

“I’ll keep my promise.”

“A promise…?”

“Wolf Beastman, promises, I always keep them. So I don’t make them lightly, okay?”

“…………”

“At that time, I thought I was born to have your child. Deep down, that’s what I believed.”

“S-So… such a little girl could think like that?”

“I believe in fate very strongly. That’s why I felt it back then.”

“Fate…?”

“Brother, am I not a good girl? Am I an unpleasant person to you?”

“You’re a good girl…you are…”

Those words felt too heavy for someone who had given up on their first love so easily.

Before Kelly could say anything else, Kate kissed her, pressing her giant lips against Kelly’s nose and mouth.

“Mmm…nnn. Our promise is perfect.”

“What…?”

Kate hadn’t intended to listen in the first place. She pulled out the dildo while kissing him and threw it away far into the distance as if she no longer needed it.

“I want your seed, a lot of it. I’m in heat right now, and probably will be forever.”

With that, the naked beast girl rubbed herself against Kelly’s erection on her own initiative.

“Hah… hah…”

The sound of wet cloth rubbing against Kelly’s crotch could be heard as her pussy juices were smeared all over it. This was not a wife-inquiry marriage, but rather an active female’s appeal in the form of a cow orc who accepted anyone who came to her. It seemed that Kelly had finally made up her mind about this unusual situation.

“…Hey… really, you’re gonna do it? I don’t know how to handle women…”

“Yes. Neither do I. Do what you want.”

“…Okay then…”

“Hurry up and do it!”

With the beautiful girl who was completely flushed red rubbing her pussy juices all over him and wagging her tail, not to mention telling him to hurry up, there was no way he could escape now.

Still feeling a bit guilty, Kelly thrust his massive cock into Kate’s vagina.

“Nnha…!!”

Kate arched her back.

Even though the girth could be expanded, it was difficult to accommodate its length.

The bull ogre’s member had only penetrated halfway into the wolf girl’s crotch before stopping.

“G... hah... ah...”

She looked like she was being impaled on a stake as she rolled her eyes.

As for Kelly, who was about to turn thirty, she suddenly felt herself close to climax from experiencing a woman’s vagina for the first time.

“Shi...t.”

“Oh, heh... bro, more...”

“Kate?”

“...More... use my pussy...?”

Kate, despite being penetrated by such a large erection, still wore a satisfied smile.

“Yeah, your dick is really good... way better than I imagined.”

“…”

“I’ve been waiting for so long… waited and waited. Wondered if you’d be the one to make me a horned child or maybe even a wolf beast person. Thought about how sad it would be to give birth and have my pussy filled again, over and over. Wanted more of your dick inside me all the time.”

“Hey, are you okay?”

Her words were so blunt that I wondered if she was losing her mind for a moment. But Kate was just speaking from her impulse.

“It’s finally in… I want even more dick. More, more. Even after giving birth, I want to be fucked like my womb is pushing the baby back out or something. Make me your cum bucket.”

“Uh... I don’t know what you’re talking about but stop getting any grosser.”

“Okay… then shut me up with your dick.”

I feel like I'm being forced into a situation where I have no choice but to comply with her demands. Yet, it felt good.
Kelly was so hurt that she couldn't justify even one act of sex unless someone told her to do it.
“Mn, kuh... ah, gah♪ Gafu, uuu... Break me, break me, break me... Break me♪”
“...U, uuuh.”
It’s hard to tell how much of Kate's broken words are bluff and how much is genuine. But because of that, Kelly gave up trying to read her expression.
All she wanted was to taste this shallow, hot vagina thoroughly before cumming.
With that thought in mind, he started jerking himself off with both hands while holding the girl’s body tightly, almost as if using her crotch for his own masturbation.
And the wolf girl delighted in it intensely.
“...Ku, uu... I'm gonna come, I’m coming...!”

“Semen… semen♪ Spread your seed inside me, big brother Kelly!! Fill me up with your cum♪”

“Sorry, but I’m gonna take you up on that offer♪”

Thump, thump, thump…

Kelly’s cock was huge and he shot an incredible amount of cum.

“Hiaa… ah, aah…♪”

Kate passed out in ecstasy as she felt the overwhelming amount of semen rape her eggs from his thrusting dick.

“Ugh…”

And Kelly, feeling oddly drained after coming, realized with a sense of despair that he had done something incredibly terrible at an incredibly bad time.

“So I’m no longer a virgin.”

“Kelly, come here.”

Mother’s iron fist.

“Why were you doing that with another species there, idiot!”

“Oh…”

In the context of what Mother was saying, it would have been better to do it inside the Ogres’ colony.

“Kerry-nii isn’t bad at all. He’s really good.”

“Huh…?”

Mother had a lot on her mind. But she might be able to see my grandson.

“...Mu-mu. Kate, without my permission…” She was livid.

And the next assassin would come after Kerry in three weeks and two days.

(To Be Continued)

Kelly Isaac. A bull ogre, standing 310 cm tall. 29 years old.
Former heavy infantry. Decurion of the Northern Legion Crossbow Corps.
Once highly anticipated as a future Ace Knight, he effectively achieved the requirements for the title—clearing the Rock God Labyrinth—during a trial approximately five years ago; however, he was disqualified due to suspicion of fighting alongside another Ace Knight candidate during the process.
Since then, he has been transferred to the Crossbow Corps and has rarely engaged in frontline combat. He has not applied for the Ace Knight exam since that incident.
As a squad commander, he is excellent, having protected his subordinates on numerous occasions by utilizing both his immense strength and quick wit. He holds deep respect within his own unit.
Within the Crossbow Corps, he is regarded as a prime candidate for promotion to Centurion in the next reorganization, alongside Decurion Anzeros of the Guard Infantry.
Among officials, there is ongoing discussion regarding whether his unit would become the second division of the Crossbow Corps or if he would return to the heavy infantry upon his promotion.

Barring any future noteworthy disciplinary infractions, there are no apparent reasons to doubt his aptitude for Centurion.

—Extracted from this year's Celesta Army Personnel Investigation Report.

◇◇◇

"No matter how excellent a soldier you are... well, being strong is a good thing. But I never thought my own son would remain a virgin until nearly thirty."

"S-Shut up! What, you wanted me to make a name for myself as a rapist in my teens!?"

"Is there no middle ground between 'virgin' and 'rapist' in your mind?"

"I told you, stop calling me a virgin, Mom! And you, too, Dad!"

"Sigh... I suppose I won't be seeing any grandchildren."

His mother, Dorothy Isaac, let out a melancholy sigh.

The bull ogre colonies in the northern part of the Great Desert Labyrinth are very peaceful places.
Though bull ogres look truly terrifying, while they fight like demons against their enemies, they are kind and simple-hearted toward the weak, especially the small.
They do not hunt or kill indiscriminately. They help one another in times of need.
The Great Desert Labyrinth is a place that permits survival to no one who possesses only strength, only skill, or only wisdom; however, as long as its inhabitants cooperate, it provides an abundant system of livelihood through a highly efficient food chain support mechanism.
Consequently, the many colonies scattered throughout the desert labyrinth maintain relatively good relations, frequently visiting one another to trade, propose joint monster-hunting operations, or provide labor for carpentry and irrigation.
In such an environment, Kelly was a favorite among the children.

At the morning markets, held periodically on a rotating basis between colonies:

"Ah—!!"

One of the dwarf children spotted Kelly, who was peacefully gazing at the oasis in a daze, and came running over.

"It's Big Brother Red-Ox!!"

"Oh, you're from Teacher Jonathan's place. Have you been well?"

"Yeah!!"

The dwarf child scrambled up Kelly's massive tank top and perched himself on his shoulder. Kelly didn't mind, content to serve as the child's personal jungle gym.

"Big Brother Red-Ox is so awesome! Your arm is as big as my dad's belly!"

"Hahaha, when it comes to power, I won't lose to anyone, just like always."

As he flexed his bicep, his already thick arm bulged even further. It was quite literally a log-like limb, the kind that would cause a normal human to lose the will to fight just by looking at it.

As he continued to play with the dwarf child, other non-human children visiting the village began to gather around Kelly one after another. The dwarf child, being an acquaintance from before Kelly's enlistment, was not afraid, but the other children hesitated, unsure if it was safe to approach such an unfamiliar, massive bull ogre.

"Big Brother Red-Ox, do the thing!"

"The 'thing,' huh? Alright."

Prompted by the dwarf child, Kelly stood up and struck a muscle pose, hoisting both arms with a "Hnnngh!"

"Woooooo!!"

"That man looks so strong! He might even be stronger than Mr. Girard!!"

"Hey, do it again! One more time!"

"Bwahahaha, alright! Hnnngh!"

He turned his arms downward for a muscle pose.

Next, he gripped his wrists, tucked his elbows in tight to his sides, and struck a pose with a slight bend in his knees.

"Double biceps, lat spread! And now, side chest! ...Once you can nail poses like these, you're a real man!"

"Hahaha, you idiot!"

"Don't call me an idiot! Call me a machoman!"

"Let me hop on too!"

"Sure thing, hop on! I can handle all of you at once!"

"Whoa! Red Bull bro is amazing! Did you power up again!?"

"You bet! Last time you saw me, I was a Private, but now I've leveled up to a Decurion!"

"Whoa! Are you gonna get even stronger!?"

"Heh heh heh... if I get any stronger, the labyrinth won't be able to hold me!"

With the children dangling from his arms, neck, and horns, Kelly ran around the oasis with heavy, thudding strides. The children squealed with delight. Finally, he plunged into the oasis with a massive splash, quickly gathered the children who had been tossed aside with both hands, and turned his well-built chest into a boat for them to ride on.

"Whoa—!"

"Th-that scared me!"

"Hahaha!"

Kelly propelled himself through the oasis with a vigorous flutter kick. The children were overjoyed.

"Hey!! Kelly, don't put those children in danger!!"

Dorothy, who had been selling Hellsbore skewers, yelled at him from the shore.

"Hey, don't blame me! You guys were the ones flattering me, so I got carried away!"

"Don't pin this on us, Red Bull!!"

"Yeah, don't!"

He continued to swim in circles around the oasis, laughing loudly with the children.

Kelly loved making children laugh like this.

Consequently, he was immensely popular with small children and their parents, regardless of race.

"...Good grief. There's no use being popular only with children."

While Dorothy found her son's charm endearing, she sighed, thinking that this was no way to behave. If possible, she wanted grandchildren. Her troubles were deep.

Night.

The Ox Ogre colony had quieted down as the market closed.

At the Isaac household, Dorothy muttered to herself while applying lotion she had purchased from another race.

"...I'm thinking about remarrying Girard."

"!?"

Kelly bolted upright.

"H-hey, Mom?"

"What, you got a problem with that?"

"But, that guy is the same age as me..."

"I'm only forty-three myself, you know."

"Ugh, well..."

"If you had a little more ambition..."

"Wh-what's that supposed to mean?"

"Since it doesn't look like you're going to provide me with any grandchildren, I have no choice but to make new ones. I refuse to let my bloodline end here."

"Mom..."

I couldn't tell if she was trying to fire me up in her own way, or if she was being dead serious. It was a bit of a gray area.

It was true that my mother was far too young to be "withering away." However, Kelly's father had died hunting monsters when Kelly was still a small child.

Ox-Ogres, by nature, tend to be somewhat casual regarding sexual relations. Even though Kelly's old friend Girard would propose to Dorothy—who could be described as quite beautiful for her age—with heavy breathing and intense lust, it still fell within the bounds of common sense for an Ox-Ogre.

Dorothy wasn't exactly the type of woman to be aggressively predatory, but as long as Kelly continued to show such incompetence in his romantic life, she had no right to complain about her mother's desire to produce younger siblings with a large age gap to carry on the family legacy.

"Ugh..."

"If you've got even a little grievance about it, go lose your virginity to some woman around here already."

"Wh—What are you talking about?! Like I'm just peeing in the street!"

"It's not much different. When you feel the urge, you let it out. Sometimes life springs from that. See? There's no difference."

"Mom, I really don't want to think that's how I was 'sprung' into existence..."

"Even the ground is waiting for seeds and fertilizer. Just go find a midnight tryst already. How many single women do you think there are in this colony?"

The Ox-Ogre colony suffered from a shortage of men. It might sound like a harem, but when the male-to-female ratio reaches three to one, it transcends being a simple harem.

It wasn't that the libido of Ox-Ogre men was low, but the powerful and tough Ox-Ogre women were even more sexually voracious. Once they were ignited, they wouldn't let a man rest, often making him change "banks" multiple times in a single night.

Naturally, this made the shortage of men a serious problem.

As a minority group, women who wanted to ensure they had children would rarely let a man go. Even if social norms were close to being an open-sex society, the men couldn't simply go around pollinating every woman they met. Consequently, women were left over.

In such a state, a man like Kelly was more than just a failure; he was closer to a biological anomaly.

"But still..."

"If you're that desperate, why don't you go to Martha's place?"

Martha Merlitz. Kelly's first love, the woman who had been snatched away by another man ten years ago. She was now a mother of two.

"Ma—Martha is married!"

"If you're that much of a lovesick fool, then go take her back. Other men don't care if they steal one woman; they just go find another elsewhere."

"I can't go and destroy someone else's family. I want Martha to be happ—"

"Ugh, enough! Just get out! Don't come back until you've put your cock in a woman!"

My mother was dead serious. Despite thinking how reckless she was being, I couldn't defy the woman who had raised me single-handedly since I was four. I was kicked out into the night and began walking aimlessly.

"...Maybe I shouldn't have come home for a visit. Maybe I should just go back to the barracks."

Once my mother made up her mind, there was no changing it. She likely wouldn't let me back in for several days.

Even so, the option to go on a "midnight tryst" was not one available to a twenty-nine-year-old virgin.

---

The next day.

"...I guess I'll cool my heels here."

Kelly was inside the Labyrinth.

He was well-accustomed to camping in the Labyrinth. From his childhood until he joined the Celesta Army, Kelly had worked as a Hellboa Hunter here.

Against a massive horde, it would be a different story, but against one or two monsters, the current Kelly could manage even with his bare hands.

"...Only one month left until my leave ends... I wonder how many days I should sulk here. It's much more fun to spend time with my comrades and the children back at the colony..."

He counted the days on his fingers, trying to figure out how to synchronize the time needed for his mother's anger to cool with a "fun visit" period for himself. It was a very pessimistic way of thinking.

"...It's not like I don't want a girlfriend. I want to get married, too."

However, as his mother said, the Ox-Ogre community was a constant state of predatory competition.

That meant that even if he happened to find a good partner here, for someone like Kelly, who intended to continue his career as a soldier, it would be like entering a union only to have his partner stolen right in front of his eyes.

Kelly could never forget the shock of seeing someone he wanted to marry—someone he believed he could marry—smiling at another man before he knew it. At the time, he had managed to play it off with a polite, awkward smile, saying, "W-Well, it can't be helped," but for about a week after returning home, he had moped and wailed in his bed.

It was then that he realized he was actually quite sensitive and possessed a strong possessive streak.

He had a feeling that if someone stole his partner again, he wouldn't be able to recover this time. If that was the case, he figured it would be better to just live out his days alone and withered.

While he might let flames of jealousy burn against Ernie or Andy, Kelly isn't the kind of man who, at his core, thinks, "I'd rather it be me."
"……Sigh. This is boring."
Kelly sat alone, hugging his knees by a campfire made of combustible stones scavenged from all around. It was an uncharacteristic sight for a man standing 31/0 centimeters tall—the strongest man in the Minotaur Colony.

A few days later.

"I wonder if it's okay to head back soon...?"

Checking that the morning light was filtering through the skylight, Kelly grunted as he pushed himself up.

In that moment, as his hand braced against the ground, he nearly crushed something soft, causing him to recoil in surprise.

"Whoa!?"

Rolling there was a dust-covered demi-human.

"……Ow, that hurts..."

The figure sat up sluggishly.

And then.

"……I knew it! Big brother Kelly!!"

"Whoa, wha—!?"

After staring intently at Kelly's face, the demi-human lunged at his neck, clinging to him.

A tail wagged frantically.

"B-Big brother... Kelly...?"

It was a young girl of the Wolf Beastkin tribe, appearing to be in her late teens.

Kelly paused, thinking for a moment.

"……Ah."

"Did you remember?"

"You're from Old Man Zenga's place!"

"Yup! I'm Kate, his granddaughter!"

Within the Great Desert Labyrinth, there are colonies of numerous races.

It could be said that almost every race except for Humans is represented there.

Among them, there was one Wolf Beastkin colony.

Since they weren't part of the trading guild that held the morning markets, they were rarely seen, though they visited the Minotaur Colony once in a while.

"Why are you all alone in a place like this?"

"I came to chase after you, Big Brother Kelly."

"Why... I mean, wasn't the last time I played with you ten years ago?"

In Kelly's memory, Kate was still nearly a toddler.

However, the current Kate was a fully grown young woman. He thought to himself that she had grown quite a lot.

"Ehehe. ...I finally caught you."

"You... you sure picked a time... visiting home and all... just kidding."

"Yeah. I've been looking for you ever since you left Quika. There were times I thought I was going to die [from searching]."

"Wait a second."

He had been in the capital, Quika, five years ago—back when he was still a heavy infantryman.

"Since you were in Quika... You mean you've been looking for me for five whole years!?"

"Yup. Since you lived there, I lived nearby, you know?"

"...No way. Are you serious?"

"But big brother told me not to call out to you, because it's such an important time for him to become an Ace Knight, so I was waiting, you know?"

"……"

"But big brother almost became an Ace Knight once, and even though I thought he'd take the exam again the next year, he didn't come. So I kept waiting, and waiting... and when I realized he was gone, I thought maybe he'd come back to the Labyrinth, but he hadn't. I thought maybe he was still with Quika, but he wasn't there either."

"I—I understand, I get it. ...But why?"

"Because I made a promise to big brother. That he would make me his bride."

"...Eh?"

I desperately searched my memories.

No, there was no need to search. There are children like that every once in a while.

Children who play with Kelly, admire him, and occasionally tell him they want him to marry them.

Kelly's answer is always the same: "Sure, once you've become a fine woman."

"...You mean... you actually... believed me?"

"Yeah. Wolf-kin, promises, are absolute."

"……"

"I'm going to be big brother's bride. All that's left is for you to tell me I'm a 'fine woman,' and then the promise will be perfect. I'll have lots of your babies. I'll be a good mother."

Kate wagged her tail rhythmically.

I thought it was incredibly cute.

However.

"...No, that's impossible."

While I was incredibly happy that she would say such a thing during this period, an ogre's member is not something that is easily accepted by other races.

After all, it's as thick as a woman's arm. If it were significantly miniature, compatibility might be possible, but Kelly's "equipment" was by no means small, even by ogre standards.

However.

"It's okay."

Kate smiled brightly and began to undress.

Kelly, seeing the naked body of a woman other than Diane or his mother for the first time, turned bright red. He was a virgin.

She untied her short vest and the cloth wrapping her chest, then stripped away her loincloth. She wasn't wearing any underwear. She couldn't.

Because embedded there was a thick, form-fitting prosthetic, truly as thick as a woman's arm.

"Hey!?"

"Ehehe... To become big brother's bride, I have to be able to take your cock, so I put in this thing big sister made for me."

"W-wait, hey, are you serious...?"

"Wolf-kin, promises, are absolute. I've been stretching little by little, and now this much can fit. I can keep my promise. I can bear your children."

Because of the difference in their native linguistic structures, Kate's words were subtly clumsy. It was precisely because of that that her overly blunt appeal turned Kelly's mind completely blank.

"Wh... why... would you do that... to me...?"

"I will definitely keep my promise."

"A promise... how could you..."

"Wolf-kin, promises, are absolute. That's why, I don't, make promises, easily, okay?"

"……"

"Because back then, I thought... that I was born to bear big brother's children. I thought that from the bottom of my heart."

"T-that's impossible... a child that small, saying something like that?"

"Because I believe in wolf-kin, fate, very much. Because back then, I felt, destiny."

"Destiny... don't be ridiculous..."

"Big brother, am I not becoming a good woman? Am I... someone you dislike?"

"You're a good woman. A great woman, but..."

To someone like him, who had given up on his first love so easily, those words felt far too heavy.

Before Kelly could speak, Kate cut him off, kissing him as if burying her nose and mouth within his massive lips.

"Mmph... nn... Promise. Perfect."

"Eh...?"

From the very beginning, Kate had no intention of listening.

While kissing him, she pulled out his gag and tossed it aside, as if discarding something she no longer needed.

"Give me lots of your seed, big brother. Right now, I'm... in heat. I'll probably be in heat forever from now on."

With that, the naked beastwoman girl pressed her hips against Kelly's member of her own accord.

"Haa... haa..."

A wet, squelching sound followed as her arousal rubbed against the crotch of Kelly's trousers.

This wasn't the passive form of a marriage ceremony, like a cow ogre's wife-asking, where one waits without rejecting anyone; this was an aggressive appeal from a woman. Faced with this uniquely interspecies display, Kelly finally steeled his resolve.

"...H-hey... Are you sure? I don't know how to handle women, you know?"

"Yeah. I don't either. I'll just do what I want."

"...You're sure about this?"

"Just do it already!"

With a beautiful girl flushed deep red rubbing her fluids against him, wagging her tail, and even telling him to hurry up, there was no escaping.

While still harboring a slight sense of guilt, Kelly thrust his massive member into Kate's vagina.

"Ngh...!! "

Kate arched her back.

While the width could certainly be expanded, the depth was something even she couldn't do much about.

The cow ogre's member buried itself halfway into the wolf beastwoman girl's crotch before coming to a halt.

"Ga... ha, ah..."

Kate's eyes rolled back in her head, as if she were being impaled on a spit.

As for Kelly, experiencing a woman's vagina for the first time just before turning thirty, he was suddenly on the verge of climax from the sheer emotion of it.

"Th-this is bad..."

"A, haha... Big brother, more..."

"Kate?"

"...More... use my pussy... please...?"

Even while being pierced by that incredibly massive rod, Kate wore a smile full of accomplishment.

"I knew it... your cock is amazing... It's much better than I imagined..."

"............"

"I've been waiting... I've been waiting so long... I kept wondering if I could have a child with horns like yours, or if it would be a wolf beastman... I thought about how lonely it would be to give birth, have you put your cock in me, and then give birth and have you put it in me again... I thought about how I wanted to keep having your cock in me even while giving birth. I want you to soak me in your cock even more. I want to live my life with your cock inside me."

"...H-hey, are you okay?"

Because of her broken speech, he momentarily suspected she might be going insane. However, Kate was simply speaking from pure impulse.

"Now that your cock is finally inside me... I want you to do it so much more. I want you to fuck me so much that even when babies are born, you push them back into my womb, that you force them out of my mouth... I want you to turn my body into a vessel for your cock."

"I... I don't really understand, but please don't say anything any more gruesome than that."

"Yeah... then, make me shut up. Silence me with your cock."

"...Ugh."

I felt as though I was being cornered, bit by bit, forced into making concessions until I had no choice but to comply.
And yet, it felt good.
Kelly was so deeply wounded that she couldn't even justify a single bout of sex without being pushed that far.

"Nng, ku... ah, gah♪ Ga-fu, uu... Breaking, being broken, break me... Break me harder♪"

"...U, uuh."

With Kate's broken speech, it was impossible to tell where the bluff ended and the reality began. Because of that, Kelly gave up on trying to read her expression.
He simply wanted to savor this shallow, hot heat and ejaculate to his heart's content.
Driven by that thought, halfway through, he gripped the girl's body with both hands, stroking his member as if he were using her crotch as a tool for his own masturbation.
And the wolf girl rejoiced intensely at it.

"...Ku, uu... It's coming, I'm gonna let it out...!"

"Seed... Seed♪ Scatter plenty of Big Brother Kelly's seed!! Fill me up, fill me all the way up♪"

"...Sorry, but I'm... gonna take you up on that!!"

Throb, throb, throb...!!
Kelly's member was massive, and the amount of ejaculate was nothing to sneeze at.
"Hia... ah, ah...♪"
Feeling an overwhelming flood of fluid surging from the impaled shaft to assault her very eggs, Kate fainted in bliss, still skewered.

"...U, uwaah..."
And in the strange, hollow lethargy that followed ejaculation, Kelly felt a profound sense of despair, as if he had done something absolutely outrageous at the absolutely worst possible moment.

---

"And so, I am no longer a virgin."

"Kelly. Come here. Now."

His mother's iron fist.

"Why on earth are you defiling other species, you idiot!"

"Ah."

Contextually speaking, his mother was right; it would have been more appropriate to keep it within the Bovine Ogre colony.

"It's not your fault, Big Brother Kelly. It was wonderful."

"Sigh..."

His mother's troubles were deep. Though, it looked like she might at least get a grandchild.

---

"...Mumu. That Kate... without my permission... Honestly!"
And so, the next assailant set her sights on Kelly.
There were three weeks and two days left until the end of Kelly's vacation.

(To be continued)

Kelly Isaac. A bull ogre standing 310 cm tall, aged 29.
Former heavy infantryman. Squad leader of the Crossbow Corps in the Northern Legion.
Once touted as a future ace knight, he had effectively cleared the Rock God Labyrinth—the requirement for the Ace Knight title—during an examination five years prior. However, he was disqualified due to suspicions of collaborating with other ace knight candidates mid-examination.
Afterward, he was transferred to the Crossbow Corps and has since rarely engaged in frontline combat. He has also not reapplied for the Ace Knight examination since then.
As a squad leader, he is excellent, using his strength and wits to protect his subordinates on numerous occasions. His reputation within his unit is solid.
Within the Crossbow Corps, he is considered a promising candidate for promotion to company commander alongside Anzeros, the squad leader of the escort infantry, in the next reorganization.
Should that happen, there is speculation among those involved as to whether his company will become the second unit of the Crossbow Corps or if he will return to heavy infantry.

Unless he commits any further actions warranting demerits, there appears to be no particular reason to doubt his suitability for company commander.

◇◇◇

"No matter how excellent you are as a soldier… well, being strong is good and all. But I never thought my son would still be a virgin at almost 30!"

"Ugh, shut up! So what, should I have been a rapist since I was a teenager or something?!"

"Don't you think there's a middle ground between virgin and rapist?"

"You're his mother, stop calling him a virgin!"

"Haa… I guess I won’t be seeing my grandkids then."

His mother, Dorothy Isaac, sighed wistfully.

The bull ogre colony in the northern part of the Desert Great Labyrinth is a very peaceful place.
Though they appear terrifyingly monstrous, these bull ogres fight like demons against enemies but are kind and innocent toward the weak, especially the small ones.
They don’t hunt or kill indiscriminately. They help each other when in need.
The Desert Great Labyrinth doesn’t allow survival for those with only strength, only skill, or only wisdom—but as long as they aid one another, it provides abundant resources, a superior food chain support system.
Thus, the many colonies scattered throughout the desert labyrinth are relatively friendly, frequently visiting each other to trade, propose joint monster hunts, or offer labor for carpentry and irrigation.
In such an environment, Kelly was a favorite among the children.

During the morning market, which rotates between the colonies from time to time…

"Ah!!"

One of the dwarf children spotted Kelly gazing blankly at the oasis and came running over.

"It's Red Bull Uncle!!"

"Oh, Jonathan’s kid. How’ve you been?"

"Ooh!!"

The dwarf child grabbed and clambered up Kelly’s enormous tank top, plopping onto his shoulder. Kelly didn’t mind and indulged in the little athlete’s antics.

"Red Bull Uncle’s arms are so strong! They’re as big as Dad’s belly!"

"Hah hah hah, I don’t lose to anyone in strength, still,"

He flexed a muscle, making his already thick arms bulge even more. For an ordinary human, just looking at these arms would be enough to lose the will to fight—literally log-like limbs.

As he was playing with the dwarf child, children of other races visiting the village began gathering around Kelly one after another. The dwarf child knew him from before his enlistment and wasn’t afraid, but the others hesitated about approaching the unfamiliar giant bull ogre.

"Red Bull Uncle, do that!"

"Do that? Which 'that' are you talking about? Alright, let’s go."

Provoked by the dwarf kid, Kelly stood up and flexed his arms, doing a muscle pose with a "Hunnuf!"

"Uooooo!!"

"Uncle looks strong! Maybe even stronger than Girard!"

"Yeah, do it again! One more time!"

"Heh heh heh, alright! Hunnuf!"

He flipped his arms back and did another muscle pose, this time with his palms facing down.

Then he gripped his wrists, pulled his shoulders back, bent his knees slightly, and struck another pose.

"Double bicep curl, lat spread! And side chest! …When you can pull off poses like that, you’re a real man!"

"Heh heh heh, you’re such an idiot!"

"Don’t call me an idiot! Call me a macho man!"

"Me too, let me ride!"

"Yeah, hop on, hop on! I got room for all of you!"

"Awesome! Red Bull’s awesome! Did you power up again?!"

"You bet! Last time you were just a grunt, but now you’re a squad leader!"

"Whoa! Are you gonna get even stronger?!"

"Heh heh heh, if I get any stronger, the dungeon won’t hold!"

Kelly swung the kids around his arms, neck, and horns, running around the oasis with a thud-thud. The kids squealed in delight. Finally, he dove splash! into the oasis, quickly scooped up the kids who had fallen off with both hands, and balanced them on his buff chest, turning himself into a boat.

"Uwaaa!"

"I-I was surprised!"

"Hahaha."

He kicked his legs to propel the "boat" through the oasis. The kids were overjoyed.
"Hey! Kelly, don’t put those other people’s kids in danger!!"

Dorothy, who was selling Hell’s Boar skewers by the shore, scolded him from the bank.

"Yeah, I got carried away because you guys were flattering me."

"Don’t blame us, Red Bull!!"

"Don’t!"

Kelly laughed and swam around the oasis with the kids.
Kelly loved making kids laugh like this.
That’s why he was popular with small children and their parents of all races.
"...Honestly. It’s not fair that I’m only popular with kids."

Dorothy didn’t exactly disapprove of her son, but she sighed, thinking, "This isn’t good." She’d prefer to have a grandchild. Her worries ran deep.

Night.
The Bull Ogre Colony had quieted down as the market closed.
Inside the Isaac household, Dorothy muttered to herself while applying lotion she’d bought from another race.
"...I think I might remarry Girard."

"!?"

Kelly jolted awake.

"Hey, Mom?"

"What is it? Got a complaint?"

"Well, she's my age…"

"I'm only forty-three, you know?"

"Ugh… well."

"If you had even a little more kai-sei [literally "merit/ability to have descendants"], I wouldn’t have to—"

"W-what did you say?"

"You don't seem like you'll be making any grandkids anytime soon, so I have no choice but to make some myself. I won’t have my bloodline end here!"

"Mom…"

Was she just goading Kelly, or was she serious? It was a bit ambiguous.

True, Mom wasn’t exactly past her prime. But Kelly’s father had died in a monster hunt when Kelly was still a kid.

Originally, cow ogres were… lax about sex. Even if Giraldo, an old friend of Kelly’s, came on to Dorothy with all the subtlety of a charging bull—despite her being, for a forty-three-year-old, still quite beautiful—it’d still be within the bounds of what a cow ogre considered normal.

Dorothy wasn’t exactly a woman who was always eager for sex, but as long as Kelly kept showing such an unreliable face when it came to women, she had no right to complain about Mom’s desire to have younger siblings made and entrust her hopes to them.

"Ugh…"

"If you feel even the slightest urge, just go find some woman around here and lose your virginity."

"W-what the hell are you talking about! Like some kind of public restroom!"

"It’s not that different. You get the urge, you relieve it. And sometimes life springs from there. So what’s the difference?"

"Mom, I don’t want to think I was born from that…"

"The ground’s just waiting for seeds and fertilizer. Go make a move on someone tonight. How many single women do you think are in this colony?"

The cow ogre colony was short on men. It sounded like a harem, but when the ratio reached three women to every man, it wasn’t exactly a simple harem anymore.

It wasn’t that cow ogre men had low libidos—far from it—but the powerful and resilient cow ogre women were even more insatiable. Once they got going, they’d keep a man busy all night long, never letting him rest.

That’s why the shortage of men was such a serious problem.

Originally a minority group, and with women who wanted to definitely bear children, men weren’t exactly let go easily. Even if society leaned toward free sex, men couldn’t just keep getting laid every which way. Women were left in the surplus.

In that situation, men like Kelly ended up being more like neutered oddities than anything else.

"But…"

"Want to try your luck with Martha?"

Martha Merlitz—Kelly’s first love, who’d been snatched away by another man ten years ago. Now a mother of two.

"B-but Martha’s married."

"If you’re still hung up on her, just take her back, idiot. A woman getting taken by another man is nothing—just go bang someone else somewhere else!"

"I can’t go breaking up families! I just want Martha to be happy—"

"Ugh, shut up! Just get out of here! Don’t come back until you’ve put something in a woman!"

Mom was dead serious. As ridiculous as it sounded, Kelly couldn’t argue with the woman who’d raised him single-handedly since he was four. He trudged outside into the night, kicked out by his own mother.

"…Maybe I should just go back to my hometown. Or go back to the barracks…"

Once my mom makes up her mind, there's no changing it. I probably won't be allowed back in the house for a few days.

Even so, the option of sneaking around at night wasn’t available to me—a 29-year-old virgin.

The next day.
"…Guess I’ll cool off here."

Kelly was inside the labyrinth.

Camping in the labyrinth was old hat to him. Ever since he was a kid until joining the Celesta Army, Kelly had been hunting Hellshores here.

If it were against a horde, that was one thing, but even now, Kelly could probably handle one or two alone with his bare hands.

"…Only a month left before my leave ends… How many days do I need to sulk here? Spending time with friends and kids in the colony would be way more fun…"

He counted on his fingers, trying to figure out how long it would take for his mom’s anger to subside while still making his "fun" homecoming worthwhile. He was being incredibly pessimistic.

"…It’s not like I don’t want a girlfriend or anything—I’d even like to get married someday…"

But as his mom said, the cow ogre community was always in a state of plundering war.

Which meant that even if he found someone decent here, it would still be like getting tied down just so she could be taken by another man—especially since Kelly had no intention of leaving the army anytime soon.

He couldn’t forget the shock of seeing the person he wanted to marry and thought he could actually marry smiling at some other guy. He’d plastered on a fake smile that time, saying, "Welp, can’t be helped," but then spent a week after coming home either sulking in bed or sobbing like a baby.

That’s when he realized he was actually incredibly sensitive and possessive.

And the feeling that if she got stolen from him again, he’d never recover this time… well, it was better to just wither away than deal with that.

He might burn with jealousy at the sight of Arnie or Andy, but deep down, Kelly wasn’t the kind of guy who thought, “I should be the one.”

"…Sigh. This sucks."

While making a fire with the flinty rocks scattered everywhere, Kelly sat cross-legged alone. At 310 centimeters tall, he didn’t look like the strongest man in the cow ogre colony.

A few days later.
"Guess I can head back soon…"

Confirming that morning light was streaming through the skylight, Kelly heaved himself up.

Then, as he reached out to steady himself, he nearly crushed something soft and jumped back in surprise.
"Whoa!?"

It was a dust-covered other race.
"...Ouch… there."

He groggily sat up.

And then—

"...No way. Kelly-nii!!"

"Whoa, whoa!?"

The other race stared intently at his face before leaping onto his neck.

A tail wagged back and forth.
"K-Kelly-nii…?"

A wolfkin girl, probably in her late teens.

Kelly thought for a moment.
"...Oh."

"Remember me?"

"You're from Old Man Zenga's place, right?"

"Yeah! Kate, his granddaughter!"

Inside the Desert Great Labyrinth, there are colonies of many races.
You could say almost every race except humans is here.
Among them was a werewolf colony.
They weren’t part of the morning market trading guild, so you rarely saw them, but sometimes they’d visit the Ox Ogre colony.

"Why are you alone in a place like this?"

"I followed Kelly-nii."

"Why…? Wait, wasn’t the last time we hung out ten years ago?"

The Kate in Kelly’s head was still practically a toddler back then.
But now, Kate was a proper young woman. She’s really grown up, he thought.

"Hehe. …Finally caught you."

"T-That’s a convenient timing… showing up while I’m visiting home…"

"Yeah. I’ve been searching since you disappeared from Quieca. I thought I was gonna die sometimes."

"Wait."

It had been five years since he was in Quieca. Back when Kelly was still heavy infantry.

"You’ve been looking for me… for five years?!"

"Yeah. You lived there, so I lived nearby?"

"...Seriously?!"

"But my brother told me not to talk to you because it was a crucial time for him becoming an Ace Knight, so I waited…"

"…………"

"But then you almost became an Ace Knight once, and I thought you’d try again the next year, but you didn’t come, so I waited, and waited… and then I realized you were gone, so I figured you came back to the labyrinth, but you weren’t there, so I thought maybe you were still in Quieca, but you weren’t…"

"O-okay, okay, I get it. …But why?"

"I promised Kelly-nii. That I’d be his wife."

"…Huh?"

He desperately tried to recall.
No, there was no need to search. Some kids were like that.
Kids who played with Kelly, admired him, and occasionally asked him to marry them.
Kelly’s answer was always, "Yeah, when you become a good woman."

"...You mean… you believe in me?"

"Yeah. Werewolf, promise, it’s absolute."

"…………"

"I’m gonna be your wife, Kelly-nii. And after that, if you tell me I’m a 'good woman,' the promise is perfect. I’ll have lots of kids for you. I’ll be a great mom."

Kate wagged her tail excitedly.

"I think you're really cute."

"But…"

"…No, forget it. That's impossible."

It would be incredibly sweet if she said that to him at a time like this, but an ogre’s cock isn’t exactly something other races can easily accept. After all, it’s as thick as a woman’s arm. If it were a decent size smaller, maybe compatibility would work, but Kelly’s member wasn’t exactly on the small side for an ogre.

"But…"

"It's okay."

Kate grinned and started to take off her clothes.

Kelly’s face flushed red—this was the first time he’d seen a woman other than Diane or his mother naked. He was still a virgin.

She unfastened her short vest and the cloth wrapped around her chest, then peeled off her loincloth in one swift motion. She wasn’t wearing any underwear. She couldn’t have worn any.

Because lodged inside her was an enormous dildo—thick as a woman’s arm.

"Hey!?"

"Hehe… if I’m gonna be your wife, your dick has gotta fit, so Big Sis made this for you."

"W-wait, are you sure…?"

"Lycanthrope, promise, absolutely. I’ve been getting used to it little by little, and now this much fits. I can keep my promise. I can give you kids."

Her words were slightly awkward due to the differences in their native languages, but that only made her direct appeal even more overwhelming, leaving Kelly’s mind blank.

"W-why… why are you doing this for me…"

"Promise, absolutely keeping it."

"A promise like that—"

"Lycanthrope, promise, absolutely. So, I don’t make promises lightly, okay?"

"…………"

"I was born to give you kids," she said, her voice earnest. "I felt that way from the bottom of my heart back then."

"S-so… a kid that small would even think about something like that?"

"Lycanthrope, destiny, I believe in it so much. I felt destiny back then."

"Destiny…"

"Are you happy with me, Brother? Am I a bad sister to you?"

"You’re a good sister, a really good one, but—"

Giving up on his first love so easily… that was too much for him.

Before Kelly could finish speaking, Kate cut him off, pressing her nose and mouth deep into his massive lips in a kiss.

"Mmph… ungh. Promise, perfect."

"Huh?"

Kate hadn’t intended to listen in the first place.

While kissing him, she pulled out the dildo and tossed it away as if she no longer needed it.

"Give me your seed, Brother. I’m super horny right now. Probably gonna be like this forever."

And with that, the naked beastkin girl rubbed her hips against Kelly’s erection of her own accord.

"Hah… hah…"

A wet, slick sound as Kelly’s pants at his groin were coated with her arousal.

It wasn’t the usual passive arrangement of a cow ogre’s wife waiting for suitors—this was an active pursuit from a woman, something unique to interspecies relationships. And finally, Kelly had steeled himself.

"…Hey… you really gonna do this? I don’t know anything about women, y’know?"

"Yeah. Neither do I. Do whatever."

"…You sure?"

"Just get on with it!"

Completely flushed and radiating heat, the beautiful girl pressed her slickness against him, wagging her tail, even telling him to hurry up—there was no turning back now.

Still feeling a twinge of guilt, Kelly thrust his massive member into Kate’s vagina.

"Ngh… AHH!!"

Kate arched back.

Even if she could stretch to accommodate the girth, the depth was still too much for her to handle.

The cow ogre’s shaft stopped halfway inside the wolf-girl’s tight heat.

"Gah… ha… ahh…"

Her eyes rolled back as if she were being impaled on a stake.

Kelly, on the other hand, was overwhelmed by the sensation of a woman’s vagina for the first time just before his thirtieth birthday.

"Whoa… this is—"

"Ah, hahaha… big brother, more…"

"Kate?"

"…More… make love to me… use my pussy…"

Even as she was being pierced by something so huge, Kate wore a smile of pure fulfillment.

"This is it… your dick is amazing… so much better than I imagined…"

"…………"

"I’ve been waiting for this forever… wondering if I could get a horned kid like you, or maybe a wolf-human… giving birth, getting filled with a dick, giving birth again, getting filled with a dick again… it’s lonely, wanting a dick while giving birth. I want so much more… fill me with your dick, make me a vessel for it. I want to live with your dick inside me."

"…Hey, you alright?"

Her slurred words made him fear she was about to lose it entirely. But Kate was just speaking on impulse.

"It’s finally in… I want so much more of your dick. More, more, even if a kid comes out, push it back into my womb, make me push the baby out with my mouth… I want you to fuck me that hard. Make my body a container for your dick."

"W-what are you even saying? Don’t get any grosser than that."

"Yeah… then shut me up. Shut me up with your dick."

"…Guh…"

He felt like he was being cornered into more and more promises, forced into a situation where he couldn’t refuse.

But it felt good.

Kelly had been so wounded by his past that he needed to hear things like that before he could even justify having sex.

"Ngh… guh… ah, gah! Guh, uuu… I’m breaking, I’m being broken, break me… break me!"

"…Uhh… ugh…"

It was impossible to tell how much of Kaito’s words were bluff and how much was serious. Because of that, Kelly gave up trying to read her expression.

But she just wanted to fully savor this shallow, hot cunt before coming.

Thinking so, from halfway through, she gripped the girl’s body with both hands, practically jerking off with the girl’s crotch as if it were her own, while her member throbbed in her grasp.

And the wolf-girl writhed in pleasure.

“…Kuh, ugh… I’m gonna come… I’m gonna release it…!”

“Semen… semen♪ Kelly-nii-chan’s seed, fill me up with it!! Make my insides overflow with it♪”

“…Sorry, but… I’m gonna do just that!!”

Throb, throb, throb…!!

Kelly’s member was enormous, and her ejaculate volume was no joke.
“Ai… a, ah…♪”

Feeling the overwhelming rush of fluid from the penetrating member assaulting her eggs like a rape, Kaito passed out in bliss while still impaled.
“…Uwah… there…”

And then, in the strangely hollow feeling that followed climaxing, Kelly felt an odd sense of despair—she’d done something incredibly stupid at the worst possible time.

“So, I’m no longer a virgin.”

“Kelly. Come here for a sec.”

A mother’s iron fist.

“Why are you screwing another race there, you idiot!”

“Ah…”

Given the context of what her mother was saying, it was definitely more appropriate to have done it within the cow ogre colony.

“It’s not Kelly-nii-chan’s fault. It felt amazing.”

“Haaah…”

Her mother’s worries ran deep. At least she could see her grandchild.

“…Mm. Kaito, doing this without my permission… Ugh!”

And the next attacker targeted Kelly. Three weeks and two days left until Kelly’s vacation ended.

(To be continued)

Kelly Isaac. A bull ogre of 310 cm in height, aged 29.
Former heavy infantryman and squad leader of the Crossbow Corps within the Northern Legion.

Once hailed as a future Ace Knight, he had already met the primary requirement for the title by successfully breaching the Rock God's Labyrinth during trials five years ago. However, he was disqualified due to suspicions that he had collaborated with other candidates en route.
Since then, he transferred to the Crossbow Corps and has rarely engaged in frontline combat. He has not applied for the Ace Knight examination since that incident.

As a squad commander, he is highly competent, repeatedly protecting his subordinates by leveraging his immense strength and quick thinking. His reputation and trust within his unit remain strong.
Among the Crossbow Corps, he is regarded as one of the most promising candidates for promotion to Centurion in the upcoming reorganization, alongside Anzeros, the squad leader of the Guard Infantry.

Should this promotion occur, discussions among relevant parties revolve around whether his new centurion company would become the second division of the Crossbow Corps or if he would return to heavy infantry duties.

Assuming no further significant infractions arise, there is little reason to doubt his suitability for the role of Centurion.

──End of this year's Celesta Military Personnel Investigation Report.

◇◇◇

"Even though you're excellent as a soldier... well, being strong is good. But I never thought my son would still be a virgin at thirty!"

"W-what are you talking about! Should I have been known as a rapist since my teens instead?!"

"There's no middle ground between 'virgin' and 'rapist,' you know."

"Don't keep calling me a virgin, Mom! Especially not from your mother!"

"Haa... I guess I won't get to see my grandson's face after all."

Dorothy Isaac, his mother, sighed listlessly.

The bull ogre colony in the northern region of the Great Desert Labyrinth is a remarkably peaceful place.
Though they appear terrifyingly monstrous, these bull ogres fight like demons against their enemies yet display kindness and innocence toward the weak, especially children.
They do not hunt without cause and never kill unnecessarily; when in trouble, they help one another.
The Great Desert Labyrinth permits survival only to those with strength, skill, or wisdom—but as long as these ogres support each other, it provides abundant living resources through an excellent symbiotic food chain system.

Consequently, the numerous colonies scattered throughout the desert labyrinth maintain relatively harmonious relations, frequently visiting one another for trade, proposing joint monster-hunting operations, or exchanging labor for carpentry and irrigation projects.
Amidst this environment, Kelly became a beloved figure among the children.

Occasionally, morning markets are held on a rotating basis across each colony.

"Ah—!!"

One dwarf child spotted Kelly gazing blankly at an oasis and hurried over to him.

"It's Red Bull One-chan!!"

"Oh, Jonathan's kid! How have you been?"

"Ooh—!!"

The dwarf child climbed onto Kelly's massive tank top, clinging tightly as he scrambled up, then perched himself on Kelly's shoulder with a joyful hop. Kelly didn't mind and simply allowed the athletic display.

"Red Bull One-chan's arms are so cool! They're as big as To-chan's belly!"

"Hahahaha, no one can beat me in power—I'm still the same."

Flexing his muscles to show off his biceps, already thick arms bulged even further. These log-like limbs were so formidable that an ordinary human would lose all fighting spirit just seeing them.

As Kelly spent time with the dwarf child, other children from different races began gathering around him one by one. The dwarf child knew Kelly from before he joined the military and felt no fear, while the others hesitated, unsure whether to approach such a gigantic bull ogre.

"Red Bull One-chan, do that thing!"

"That thing? Alright then."

Stirred on by the dwarf's goading, Kelly stood up, shouted "Hnnngh!", and threw both arms into a muscle pose.

"Uoooooh!!"

"Uncle looks so strong! He must be stronger than Mr. Girard!"

"No way, let's do it again, one more time!"

"Hahahaha, alright! Hnnn!"

He flipped his arms downward and struck another muscle pose.

Next, he clasped his wrists, turned sideways with arms pressed tight against his ribs, bent his knees slightly, and held the pose.

"Double biceps, lat spread! And side chest! ...Once I can pull off poses like this, I'll be a real man!"

"Hahahaha, you idiot!"

"Don't call me an idiot! Call me a macho man!"

"I wanna ride too!"

"Sure thing, get on! Even with all of you riding, I've got plenty of room!"

"Incredible! Red Cow-chan is amazing! Did you power up again?"

"Yeah! When we first met, you were just a regular soldier, but now you've leveled up to squad leader!"

"Incredible! You're getting even stronger!"

"Hmph, if I get any stronger, the dungeon won't be able to hold me."

Kelly swung the children around his arms, necks, and horns, running steadily around the oasis while they cheered happily. Finally, he dove into the water with a splash, quickly gathered the kids who had been tossed aside, and carried them on his broad, trained chest like a raft.

"Haaah—"

"W-was that scary!"

"Hahahaha"

He continued propelling the oasis forward with a fluttering kick, to the children's great delight.

"Hey!! Kelly, don't put those kids from other houses in danger!"

Dorothy scolded him from the shore while selling skewered meat from Hell's Bore.

"Well, you guys were cheering me on, so I got carried away, didn't I?"

"Don't blame us, Red Cow!!"

"No way!"

Laughing heartily with the children, he swam in circles around the oasis.
Kelly loved nothing more than making children laugh.
That's why he was immensely popular with small children and their parents, regardless of race.
"...Well, I guess it's unavoidable that you'd be so popular with kids."

Dorothy sighed fondly at her son, though she also knew this wasn't enough. If only she had grandchildren... Her worries ran deep.

Night fell.
The city had closed down, and the bovine ogre colony grew quiet.
Inside Isaac's home, Dorothy murmured softly while applying lotion bought from another race.
"...I was thinking about remarrying Girard."

"!??"

Kelly jumped up abruptly.

"Oh, hey, Mom?"

"What's the matter? Got a complaint?"

"But she's my age..."

"I'm still forty-three!"

"Hmm..."

"If you had a bit more initiative, maybe—"

"What are you talking about?"

"You're not likely to produce any grandchildren with your current track record, so I'll just have to make a new one. It's exhausting for me; I can't let my bloodline end here."

"Mom..."

Is she trying to push Kelly into action in her own way, or is she serious? It's hard to tell.
True enough, Mom isn't quite ready to fade away yet. But Kelly's father died hunting monsters when Kelly was still a child.

Orcs are naturally somewhat loose regarding sexual matters. Even though Dorothy is still strikingly beautiful for her age, Gerald—Kelly's old friend—proposing aggressively wouldn't be considered unusual by orc standards.

Dorothy isn't particularly aggressive in her approach to relationships, but as long as Kelly continues to show himself unworthy of forming connections with women, there's no reason to object to his mother's desire for him to have younger siblings and carry on the family line.

"Hmm..."

"If you're thinking about anything at all, just go find some virgin girl nearby and lose your innocence."

"B-What are you saying?! Like peeing standing up!"

"Not much difference there. When you feel like it, you do it. Sometimes life springs from that. Come on, what's the difference?"

"Mom, I don't want to think that something like that could bring me into existence..."

"The ground is waiting for seeds and fertilizer. Hurry up and try seducing someone tonight. How many single women do you think are in this colony?"

The orc colony suffers from a severe shortage of males. While it might sound like a harem situation, with the male-to-female ratio reaching three to one, it goes far beyond that.

Orc men certainly aren't lacking in libido, but orc women—powerful and tough as they are—are even more driven sexually. Once ignited, their passion never fades; they keep their partners busy multiple times a night, changing riverside lovers with ease.

As a result, the shortage of males becomes a serious issue.

Originally a minority group, women who definitely want children rarely let men go. Even though men operate under social norms close to free sex, they can't easily juggle several partners at once. Women end up in surplus.

In such circumstances, men like Kelly become almost bizarre creatures—far beyond being carefree or irresponsible.

"But still..."

"Maybe you should try visiting Martha-chan?"

Martha Merlitz was Kelly's first love, the girl he'd been dumped on by another man a decade ago. Now she's a mother of two.

"B-But Martha has a husband!"

"If you're so attached, go steal her back, you idiot. Other men can still bang around even after losing one woman."

"I can't break up someone's family. I want Martha to be happy..."

"Ah, shut up! Just get out! Don't come back until you've given some woman a good pounding!"

Mom is dead serious. Even though it sounds absurd, Kelly couldn't defy the mother who'd raised him alone since he was four. He was kicked out into the night and stumbled away.

"...I shouldn't have gone home to visit my family. Maybe I should head back to the barracks..."

My mother never backs down once she starts. She won't let me back in the house for a few days.
Even so, the option to sneak off with her didn't appear on my menu as a twenty-nine-year-old virgin.

The next day.

"……Let's cool things down here," Kelly muttered.

Kelly had retreated into the labyrinth.

Camping in the labyrinth was second nature to him; from childhood until his enlistment in the Celesta Army, he'd been hunting Hellboars here.

Against a pack, sure, but against one or two? Even with bare hands, current Kelly could handle them.

"……About a month left before my leave ends... How many days should I sulk here? It'd be more fun hanging out with my comrades and kids back at the colony," he mused, counting on his fingers as he tried to balance his mother's cooling-off period with his own "joyful homecoming." He was feeling pretty down.

"……I'm not saying I don't want a girlfriend or marriage... but..."

However, as his mother said, the Bovine Oga community was always at war, constantly raiding.

That meant that even if he found a good match here, for Kelly, who still intended to remain a soldier, it would amount to being stolen away without a fight.

He couldn't forget the shock when someone he thought wanted to marry him and believed could marry him suddenly smiled at another man. He'd managed to brush it off with an awkward laugh back then, saying, "Well, there's nothing I can do about it," but once home, he'd spent about a week tossing and turning in bed or weeping bitterly.

That was when he realized he was actually quite sensitive and possessive.

If someone stole him away again, he feared he might never recover; perhaps it would be better to just wither away.

Though he'd flare up jealousy toward Earnie and Andy, fundamentally, Kelly wasn't the kind of man who thought, "I should have been the one."

"……Man, this is boring."

While building a fire with burning stones scattered around, Kelly sat alone, hugging his knees. He looked nothing like the strongest male in the Bovine Oga colony at 310 centimeters tall.

A few days later.

"Is it safe to head back soon...?"

Confirming that morning light was streaming through the skylight, Kelly sprang up with a start.

Just then, as he moved his hand sideways, something soft pressed against him, causing him to jump in surprise.

"Whoa!?"

Lying there was a foreign-species individual covered in dust.

"……Ow, ow..."

He sat up abruptly.

And then—

"……As I thought. Big Brother Kelly!!"

"Whoa, oh!?"

The creature stared intently at Kelly's face before leaping onto his neck.

Its tail swished back and forth.

"K-Kelly-nii-san...?"

A teenage wolf-beastkin girl.

Kelly paused for a moment to think.

"……Ah."

"Remembered?"

"You're from Old Man Zenga's place!"

"Yeah! Kate, his granddaughter!"

Inside the Desert Great Labyrinth lie numerous colonies of various races.
It wouldn't be an exaggeration to say that almost every race except humans has a presence here.
Among them was one colony inhabited by wolf-beastkin.
Though they don't belong to the trading guilds that hold morning markets, so they're rarely seen, they occasionally make their way to the Bull Ogre Colony.

"Why are you all alone out here?"

"I followed Big Brother Kelly."

"Wait... didn't I last play with you about ten years ago?"

The Kate in Kelly's mind was still barely a toddler.
But the Kate standing before him now was properly grown into a young girl. She'd matured quite a bit, he thought.

"Heh-heh... finally caught you."

"T-timing couldn't be better! I was back home visiting my family..."

"Yeah. I've been looking for you ever since you disappeared from Queeca. Sometimes I thought I'd never find you."

"Wait."
Kelly had been in the capital city of Queeca five years ago, when he was still a Heavy Infantryman.

"You were in Queeca... so you've been looking for me this whole time? For five years!?"

"Yeah. Since Big Brother Kelly lived there, I moved nearby too, right?"

"Come on, seriously?"

"But my sister told me not to call out to him because he was entering a crucial period as an Ace Knight, so I waited."

"..."

"But then, once he seemed like he might become an Ace Knight, and I thought he'd take the exam again next year... but he didn't show up. So I waited for the next one too, and the one after that... By the time I realized he was gone, I thought maybe he'd returned to the Labyrinth, but he wasn't there either. Then I wondered if he was still in Queeca, but he wasn't there either."

"I-I get it, I get it... but why?"

"Because I made a promise to you, Big Brother. I promised to become your wife."

"...Eh?"

Kelly desperately tried to recall his memories.
No, there was no need to search at all. There are children like that who occasionally appear.
Children who play with Kelly, admire him, and sometimes ask him to marry them.
And Kelly's answer is always the same: "Yeah, when you become a good woman."

"...So I believed... that..."

"Yeah. Wolf-beastkin keep their promises absolutely."

"..."

"I'm going to be your wife, Big Brother. And once you say I've become a 'good woman,' our promise will be complete. I'll make many children with you. I'll be a great mother."

Kate wagged her tail back and forth excitedly.

I thought you were incredibly cute.

But...

"…No, that's impossible."

It truly warms my heart to hear someone say something like this during such a time, but an ogre's penis isn't easily accepted by other races.

After all, it's as thick as a woman's forearm. If it were significantly smaller, maybe compatibility would be possible, but Kelly's endowment is certainly not on the small side for an ogre.

But...

"It's fine."

Kate smiled brightly and began undressing.

Kelly, who had never seen a woman naked except for Diane and his mother, turned red with embarrassment. He was still a virgin.

He unbuttoned his short vest and loosened the cloth wrapped around his chest, then peeled off his loincloth in one swift motion. He wasn't wearing underwear—he couldn't have been.

That's because something extremely thick and rigid, literally as wide as a woman's forearm, was buried within him.

"Hey!?"

"Heheh… To become your wife, I need to fit inside your penis, so I made it myself and put it on."

"W-wait, hey, really…"

"Wolf beastkin, promise, absolutely. I've gradually gotten used to it; now this much fits. I can keep my promise. I can bear your child."

Due to their fundamentally different linguistic systems, Kate's words came out slightly awkward, yet that very directness left Kelly completely speechless.

"N-why… why do you have to be so… with me…"

"I'll absolutely keep my promise."

"Promises are…"

"Wolf beastkin, promise, absolutely. That's why I won't make promises lightly, right?"

"…………"

"I was born with the purpose of bearing your child—that's what I thought back then. I truly believed it from the bottom of my heart."

"S-such a thing… how could such a small child think that?"

"Wolf beastkin, I believe deeply in fate. That's why I felt it back then."

"Fate is…"

"Am I not a good woman for you? Am I not someone special to you?"

"You're a good woman, a very good woman, but…"

For someone like me, who so easily gave up on my first love, those words were far too heavy.

Just as Kelly was about to say that, Kate cut him off and kissed him deeply, burying her nose and mouth inside his large lips.

"Mmm… mmm. Promise, perfect."

"Eh…"

Kate had never intended to listen anyway.

While kissing, she pulled out the prosthetic and tossed it far away, as if discarding something unnecessary.

"Give me a full load of your offspring. Right now, I'm in an intense heat phase—and probably will be for quite some time."

And so, the naked beastkin girl pressed her hips against Kelly's massive endowment on her own.

"Haa... haa..."
A wet, slick sound as Kelly's love fluid rubbed against the crotch of his pants.

This bold advance from a woman was far beyond what one might expect from a bull ogre's wife-seeking ritual—a rejection-free approach entirely alien to their customs. Yet, for an inter-species encounter like this, Kelly had finally made up his mind.

"...O-oh, hey... You're really going to do it? I don't even know how to handle women!"

"Yeah. Neither do I. Do whatever you want."

"...Alright then."

"Hurry up and get at it!"

Completely flushed with desire, the beautiful young girl rubbed her arousal against him while wagging her tail, and when she demanded he just get on with it, there was no escape left.
Still harboring a faint sense of guilt, Kelly thrust his massive member into Kate's vagina.
"Nn... ah!!"
Kate arched her back in shock.
Even though the width could be accommodated, the depth remained impossible to ignore.

The bull ogre's enormous phallus had penetrated only halfway into the wolf beastgirl's crotch before stopping.
"Gh... ahh..."
Kate stared blankly ahead, eyes wide, as if impaled on a skewer.

As for Kelly, facing his thirtieth birthday for the first time, he was suddenly on the verge of climax from the overwhelming sensation of entering a woman's vagina.

"Oh no..."

"Ah, haha... Brother, more..."

"Kate?"

"...More... Use my pussy..."

Even as she was impaled by such a rigid, enormous member, Kate wore a smile filled with fulfillment.

"After all, your cock is good... Much better than I imagined..."

"…………"

"I've been waiting forever... So long... Wondering if we could have kids like you—a horned child—or maybe a wolf beastgirl. Giving birth, getting fucked again, giving birth again, getting fucked again... It feels lonely. I want to give birth while being impaled. I've always wanted that. I want you to drown me in your cock more and more. I want to live with your cock inside me."

"...O-oh, hey, are you okay?"

His broken Japanese made him momentarily doubt if she'd lost her mind. But Kate was just speaking from impulse.

"I finally have your cock inside me... I want so much more of it. Even if we have kids, I want you to fuck me until my womb is pushed back, or even push them out of my mouth. I want my body to become a vessel for your cock."

"W-well, that's pretty graphic, but don't go any further."

"Yeah... Then shut me up. Shut me up with your cock."

"...Kuh..."

It felt like she was cornering him step by step, forcing him into situations where he had no choice but to comply.

Yet, it felt good.

Kelly had been so wounded that he couldn't even justify having sex unless someone told him to do so.

"Nn, ku... ah, ga♪ Gafu, uu... Break, be broken, break me... Break me!!"

"...U, uuu..."

Kate's broken speech leaves Kelly unsure where the bluff ends and her true intent begins. Yet, precisely because of this uncertainty, Kelly has given up trying to read her expressions.

He simply wants to thoroughly savor this shallow, scorching vagina and release his seed within it.

With that thought, from the middle onward, he grips the girl's body tightly with both hands and strokes his erection as if performing a solo act while using her crotch almost entirely on his own initiative.

The wolf-girl revels violently in this.

"……K-kkuuun… It's coming, I'm gonna cum…!"

"Seed… seed♪ Kelly nii-chan's seed! Spread it all over!! Just fill me up to the brim, okay?♪"

"…Sorry, let me do that… for you, yeah!!"

Thump, thump, thump……!!

Kelly's member is enormous, and the volume of his ejaculation is far from negligible.

Feeling an overwhelming amount of fluid surge forward to rape her eggs as it erupts from the thrusting member, Kate passes out happily while impaled like a skewer.

"…U-uwaah…"

And then, in a strangely depleted mood immediately after climaxing, Kelly feels a peculiar sense of despair, realizing he's done something utterly outrageous at the most inopportune moment.

"So, I'm no longer a virgin."

"Kelly, come here for a second."

Mother's iron fist.

"Why were you messing with another species right there, you idiot!"

"Ahh…"

Given the context of what Mother said, it was indeed proper to finish inside the cow-ogre colony.

"Kelly nii-chan isn't bad at all. It was really great."

"Haa…"

Mother's worries run deep. She just fears her grandson might get caught.

"…Mmm. Kate, you little brat… doing this without my permission… Ugh!"
And then the next assassin targets Kelly. Only three weeks and two days remain until the end of Kelly's vacation.

(TBC)

Kelly Isaac. A 310 cm tall bovine ogre. Age: 29.

Former heavy infantry. Member of the Northern Army’s Crossbow Corps, squad leader.

Once hailed as a future ace knight and in fact almost met the conditions for earning the title by successfully clearing the Iwami Labyrinth five years ago, but he was disqualified due to suspicions of collaborating with other ace knight candidates during the attempt.

He was later reassigned to the Crossbow Corps and has since rarely engaged in frontline combat. He hasn’t applied for the ace knight exam either.

As a squad leader, he is highly skilled, using his strength and quick wits to protect his subordinates multiple times. He enjoys great trust within his unit.

Within the Crossbow Corps, he is considered a promising candidate for promotion to centurion alongside Anzeros, the squad leader of the escort infantry.

Should that happen, there’s speculation among those involved about whether his centurion unit would become the second division of the Crossbow Corps or if he’d return to heavy infantry.

Unless he commits any particularly significant demerits in the future, there are no major doubts about his suitability for centurion status.

——That’s all from this year’s Celestial Military Personnel Evaluation Report.

◇◇◇

“Even if he’s a skilled soldier… well, being strong is good. But I never thought my son would still be a virgin at nearly 30.”

“S-shut up! Are you saying I should’ve been a rapist since the age of 10 or something!?”

"Isn’t there a middle ground between being a virgin and being a rapist?"

"My mom said don’t keep calling me a virgin! And my mom is the one who said it!"

"Sigh… I guess I won’t get to see my grandchild’s face after all."

His mother, Dorothy Isaac, let out a troubled sigh.

The northern cow ogre colony in the desert labyrinth was a very peaceful place.

The cow ogres looked quite intimidating at first glance, but while they fought against enemies like demons, they were kind and purehearted towards the weak, especially those who were small.

Do not recklessly hunt or kill. Help each other when in trouble.

The desert labyrinth was an excellent food chain support system that provided ample living elements as long as they helped each other, allowing none of those who relied solely on strength, technology, or wisdom to survive.

Therefore, the many colonies scattered throughout the desert labyrinth got along relatively well, frequently visiting and trading, proposing joint monster hunts, or sharing labor for carpentry, irrigation, and more.

Amidst this, Kelly was a popular figure among the children.

Occasionally, they held morning markets on a rotating basis.

"Ahhh!!"

Kelly was staring blankly at the oasis, relaxing. One of the dwarf children noticed and ran over to him.

"Red Bull-nii-chan!!"

"Oh, it’s that kid from Jonathan-sensei’s place! You’re doing well."

"Ooooh!!"

The dwarf child climbed up Kelly’s massive tank top, scrunching it with his hands and finally hopping onto his shoulder. Kelly didn’t mind and let the child enjoy himself.

"He’s still got the strongest arms! They’re as thick as my dad’s stomach!"

"Haha, I’ve got power like no one else. Still the same old me."

Kelly flexed his muscles, making his already thick arms bulge even more. His arms were literally tree-trunk-like, enough to make any normal human lose their will to fight just by looking at them.

While Kelly was indulging the dwarf child like this, the other children from different races who had come to the village began gathering around him one by one. The dwarf kid knew Kelly from before his enlistment, so he wasn’t scared, but the others weren’t sure if it was okay to approach such a towering, unfamiliar bull ogre.

"Red Bull-nii-chan, do that thing!"

"That thing? Alright!"

Encouraged by the dwarf child, Kelly stood up and flexed both arms with a "Hnngh!" pose.

"Whoa!!"

"Old man, you’re so strong! You might even be stronger than Girard-san!"

"Yeah, let’s do it again, one more time!"

"Nuhahaha, alright! Here we go!"

He turned his arm over and pointed downward, striking a muscle pose.

Continuing, he gripped his wrist and flexed sideways, tightening his sides and slightly bending his knees for the pose.

"Double bicep curls, rat spread! And side chest! …When you can pull off poses like this, you’re a real man!"

"Wahahaha, you’re such an idiot!"

"Don’t call me an idiot! Call me a muscle man!"

"I wanna join too!"

"Sure, hop on! You all can pile on and I’ll still have plenty of strength left!"

"Amazing! Red bull-kun is so strong! Did you power up even more!?"

[Translator]: "Yeah! Last time I was a regular soldier, but now I’ve leveled up to squad leader!"

Child: "Wow! Are you gonna get even stronger!?"

Kelly: "Heh heh heh, if I get any stronger, the labyrinth won’t be able to handle it!"

Kelly runs around the oasis, swinging kids by their arms, necks, and horns. The kids squeal with delight. Finally, she splashes into the oasis, quickly gathers the kids who got tossed off, and lets them ride her chest like a boat.

Child: "Th-that was scary!"

Kelly continues to paddle the oasis with her flippers. The kids are thrilled.

[Dorothy]: "Hey!! Kelly, don’t let other people’s kids get into trouble!!"

Dorothy, who was selling Hell’s Bore skewers, scolds her from the shore.

Kelly: "Hey, it’s because you guys kept egging me on that I got carried away."

Child: "Don’t blame us, red bull!!"

"Hey, stop it!"

I swam around the oasis with the kids, laughing and joking together.

Kelly loved making the kids laugh like this.

That’s why she was incredibly popular among both children and their parents, regardless of race.

"...Honestly, being popular only with kids isn’t going to get you anywhere."

Dorothy thought Kelly was great, but it still wasn’t enough. She sighed, wishing for grandchildren of her own. Her worries ran deep.

Night.

The city had quieted down, and the cattle ogre colony was now settled for the day.

Inside the Isaac household in that colony, Dorothy murmured to herself while applying lotion she’d bought from another race.

"...I’ve been thinking about remarrying Gerd."

"!?"

Kelly sat up abruptly.

[O-OI, MOM?]

[WHAT’S UP? GOT A PROBLEM?]

[BUT HE’S THE SAME AGE AS ME…]

[I’M STILL ONLY 43, YOU KNOW?]

[U-UH…]

[IF YOU HAD JUST A LITTLE MORE SPUNK…]

[W-WHAT’S THIS ABOUT?]

[YOU DON’T SEEM LIKE THE TYPE TO MAKE GRANDCHILDREN. SO I’M JUST GONNA MAKE A NEW ONE. I DON’T WANT MY LINE TO END HERE, YOU KNOW?]

[MOM…]

I’m not sure if Mom is just giving Kelly a pep talk or if she’s serious. It’s kind of a tricky situation.

It’s true that Mom isn’t ready to retire yet. But Kelly’s father died during a monster hunt when she was young.

Ogres, especially cow ogres, have always been pretty relaxed about relationships. Even though Dorothy, who’s still quite beautiful for her age, had a long-standing friendship with Kelly’s old flame Giraad, it was still within the realm of normality for a cow ogre.

Dorothy isn’t the type to be overly aggressive about sex, but as long as Kelly keeps showing his lack of competence in relationships with women, it’s not like she has any right to complain about her mother’s suggestion of creating a younger brother or sister to place her hopes on.

“Hmm…”

“If you’ve got even the slightest idea, just go find some girl around here and lose your virginity.”

“W-what are you talking about?! Like, some kind of standing piss!”

“It’s not that different. When you feel like it, you just do it. Sometimes life even comes from it. See, what’s the difference?”

“I don’t wanna think I came from something like that…”

“The ground’s waiting for seeds and fertilizer too. Just go out and make a night of it. How many single women do you think are in this colony?”

The cow org colony is short on men. Saying this might sound like a harem, but when the ratio reaches three to one, it’s no longer just a harem.

It’s not that the cow org men’s libido is low, but the powerful and tough cow org women are even more sexually active, and once they’re fired up, they won’t let their men rest until they’ve changed beds multiple times in a night.

In this situation, the lack of men becomes a serious problem.

Originally a minority group, the women who want to have children for sure don’t let their men go easily. Even though the society is close to free sex, the men can’t afford to spread themselves too thin. The women end up left over.

In such a situation, men like Kelly end up going beyond being spineless and becoming something closer to strange creatures.

[Translator]: "But, you know..."

[User]: "How about heading over to Martha-chan’s place?"

Martha Mellitz. The first love of Kelly’s life, and the woman who was successfully stolen away by another man ten years ago. Currently a mother of two.

[Translator]: "W-Wait, Martha’s married now."

[User]: "If you’re still hung up on her, just take her back, idiot. She’ll probably get into some other guy’s pants anyway, and she’ll be fine."

[User]: "I can’t go and ruin someone else’s family. I just want Martha to be happy..."

[Mother]: "Ugh, shut up! Just get out of here! Don’t come back until you’ve stuck your dick into some other woman!"

Mom was serious. Even though it seemed ridiculous, I couldn’t argue with Mom, who had raised Kelly alone since she was four years old. Kicked out into the night, I trudged off.

[User]: "...Maybe I shouldn’t have come back for a visit. Maybe I should just head back to the barracks."

Once Mom made up her mind, she wouldn’t listen. She probably wouldn’t let me back in for days.

Even so, the option of going out at night wasn’t even on the table for a 29-year-old virgin like me.

The next day.

"Should I cool off here for a while?"

Kelly had entered the labyrinth.

Camping in labyrinths was nothing new to Kelly. From when she was a child until she joined the Celestial Army, Kelly had been a hunter of Hell’s Boar here.

Even if it were just one or two opponents, Kelly could handle them bare-handed now.

"...Only a month left until my leave ends... How many days should I sulk here? Spending time with friends and kids back in the colony would be more fun, though."

She counted on her fingers, trying to figure out how long it would take Mother’s anger to cool down and how long she could stay here without feeling too miserable. It was a very gloomy thought.

"...It’s not like I don’t want a girlfriend or anything, and I’d love to get married, but..."

However, as Mother always said, the community of Cattle Ogre was constantly at war.

That meant, even if she managed to find someone here who seemed promising, for Kelly, who still intended to keep serving in the army, it would just mean being taken away by another man.

Kelly couldn’t forget the shock of seeing the one she thought she could marry—someone she had convinced herself wanted to be with her—suddenly smiling at another man. She managed to brush it off with a "Well, can’t be helped," but once back home, she sulked in bed for about a week, crying and feeling utterly miserable.

It was then that she realized she was actually very sensitive and had strong possessiveness.

She felt like if she were taken again, this time she wouldn’t recover. It would be better to just stay alone forever.

Kelly is the kind of man who, while he might fuel his jealousy toward Arnie and Andy, fundamentally cannot bring himself to think, "Rather than them…" He’s a man who, despite his 310-centimeter height, doesn’t look like the strongest man in the bovine ogre colony.

"...Sigh. What a bore."

Kelly huddled over a campfire made from the flinty pebbles that littered the ground, clutching his knees. It was an unlikely sight for the 310-centimeter-tall man who was supposedly the strongest in the bovine ogre colony.

A few days later…

"Is it safe to head back yet…?"

After confirming that the morning light was streaming through the skylight, Kelly groggily sat up.

Just then, he felt something soft press against his hand and nearly crushed it, startling him awake.

"Whoa!?"

Lying there was a dust-covered alien creature.

"...Ow… Ouch…"

He slowly sat up.

And then.

"...As expected. Kelli-nii-chan!!"

"Whoa, whoa!?"

The other race stared at Kelli's face intently before leaping onto his neck.

Her tail wagged energetically.

"K-Kelly-nii-chan...?"

She was a wolf beastwoman girl, probably in her late teens.

Kelli pondered for a moment.

"...Ah."

"Remember?"

"You're from Zenja-san's place!"

"Yeah! I'm Kaito, Zenja-san's grandchild!"

Within the desert labyrinth were colonies of various races.

It could be said that most of the races other than the Human race are present here.

Among them, there was a colony of wolf beastfolk.

Since it wasn’t part of the trade guild that held the morning market, I rarely saw it, but it occasionally came to the cow ogre colony.

"Why are you alone in a place like this?"

"I chased after you, Kelly-nii-chan."

"Why… Wait, didn’t we last play together about 10 years ago?"

The Kate in Kelly’s mind was still close to being a child.

But now, Kate had grown into a fine young woman. I couldn’t help but think she’d matured so much.

"Eheh… I finally caught you."

"You’re really timing this well, coming back home just when I was here… What’s going on?"

"Yeah. I’ve been looking for you ever since you disappeared from Quirica. There were times I thought you might be dead."

"Wait."

It was five years ago, when I was in the capital of Quika. Back then, Kelly was still a heavy infantry soldier.

"Ever since you were in Quika... Wait, so you’ve been looking for me for five whole years!?"

"Yeah. Since Kelly-nee-san lived there, I lived nearby, okay?"

"...Whoa, seriously?"

"But he told me not to talk to you, said it was an important time when he was becoming Ace Knight, so I waited, huh?"

"........"

"But then he almost became Ace Knight once, and I thought he’d try again the next year, but he didn’t show up. So I kept waiting, and waiting... until I realized he was gone. I thought maybe he went back to the labyrinth, but he didn’t. I wondered if he was still in Quika, but he wasn’t there either."

"O-okay, okay. ...But why?"

"I made a promise to him. I promised I’d be his bride."

"...Huh?"

I desperately tried to recall my memories.

No, it didn’t even require that. Sometimes there are kids like that.

There are children who play with Kelly, admire her, and sometimes ask her to be their bride.

Kelly’s answer is always the same: "Yeah, if you become a good woman."

"...Are you... saying you believe me?"

"Yeah. A wolf beastman’s promise is absolute."

"…………"

"I’ll be Onii-chan’s bride. And once Onii-chan says I’m a ‘good woman,’ the promise will be complete. I’ll make lots of babies with you, Onii-chan. I’ll be a good mother."

Kate wagged her tail excitedly.

She seemed incredibly cute to me.

But...

"...No, that’s impossible."

I’m very happy she said that at a time like this, but an Ogre’s member isn’t exactly something other races would easily accept.

After all, it’s about the size of a woman’s arm. If it were tiny, there might be some compatibility, but Kelly’s thing wasn’t exactly small by Ogre standards.

That’s all.

“It’s okay.”

Kate smiled warmly and began taking off her clothes.

Seeing a woman naked for the first time, other than Dianna and his mother, Kelly’s face turned red. He was still a virgin.

He removed the short vest and the cloth wrapped around his chest, then tossed aside the loincloth. He wasn’t wearing any underwear. He couldn’t wear any.

Embedded inside him was something massive, thick, and erect—something that was almost as big as a woman’s arm.

"Hey!?"

"Ehehe... If I’m going to become Onii-chan’s wife, I have to take Onii-chan’s cock inside me, so Onee-san made it. She’s putting it in."

"Wait, hold on, seriously...?"

"A werewolf beastman, a promise, absolutely. Little by little, she’s getting used to it, and now she can take this much. I’ll keep my promise. I can have Onii-chan’s baby."

Due to the difference in their native language systems, Kate’s words were slightly awkward. That’s why Kelly’s mind went blank at her overly direct appeal.

"Why... why are you so into me...?"

"Promise, I’ll definitely keep it."

"Promises are just..."

"Wolf beastmen keep promises, absolutely. That’s why they don’t make them easily, right?"

"…………"

"I thought, when I was born, that I was born to have my brother’s child. I truly felt it in my heart."

"S-such a small girl... saying something like that?"

"Wolf beastmen believe strongly in fate. That’s why I felt it back then, fate."

"Fate is just..."

"Brother, have I become a good woman? Am I a troublesome person to you?"

"You’re a good woman, but..."

To someone like me who gave up on my first love so easily, it was too much.

As Kelly was about to say something, Kate cut her off and kissed her, burying her nose and mouth in Kelly’s massive lips.

"Nn... Mmm. The promise is perfect."

"Uh..."

Kate had never intended to listen in the first place.

While kissing, he pulled out the mold and tossed it far away. As if to say he no longer needed it.

"I want your seed, Onii-chan. Right now, I’m in heat. I’ll probably stay in heat forever."

The naked beast girl rubbed herself against Kelly’s member of her own accord.

"Haa... Haa..."

Squelching sounds echoed as her juices rubbed against Kelly’s crotch through his pants.

It was an active appeal from a woman, unlike the passive waiting of a cow ogre’s wife question marriage. Kelly finally made up his mind, unique to inter-species relations.

"...Hey... Are you really going to do it? I don’t know how to handle women."

"Yes. I don’t either. Do whatever you want."

"...Are you sure?"

"Let’s hurry up!"

With a completely flushed, red-faced beauty rubbing her juices against me and wagging her tail, and even telling me to "hurry up," there was no way I could escape.

While still feeling a little guilty, Kelly thrust her massive member into Kate’s vagina.

"Ngh…!!"

Kate writhed in ecstasy.

Though she could expand the thickness, it was impossible to reach the depth.

The cow-ogre’s member was halfway embedded in the wolf beast-girl’s crotch, stopped in place.

"Ga…ha, ah…"

Kate’s eyes rolled back as if she were being impaled on a stake.

As for Kelly, it was the first time he’d experienced a woman’s vagina, and he was already on the verge of climax from the sheer sensation.

"I-I’m gonna…"

"Ahaha… Onii-chan, go… harder…"

"Kate?"

"...More... use my pussy more...?"

As Kate was pierced by the overwhelming hardness, she still managed to smile with a sense of fulfillment.

"It’s really good... your cock... it’s so much better than I imagined..."

"…………"

"I’ve been waiting... for so long... wondering if I’d be able to have a child like you, or maybe a wolf beastman... or maybe just keep having babies while being filled with cock over and over... I’ve always thought about it. I want more of your cock inside me... I want to live with your cock still inside me..."

"...H-hey, are you okay?"

The stammering made me suspect she might be losing her mind for a moment, but Kate was just speaking from impulse.

"It’s finally inside me... I want more of it... I want to be filled with your cock even more. I want to live with your cock still inside me."

"What the hell are you saying? That’s even grosser than before."

"Yeah... then just shut me up. Use your cock to silence me."

"...Tch."

Somehow, it feels like I’m being pushed into a corner, forced to do more and more.

But that felt good.

Kelly was so hurt she couldn’t even justify having sex without someone saying something like that.

“Mmm, ngh… ah, gah♪ Gah, ugh… I’m breaking, being broken, breaking it… breaking it all♪”

「……Ugh, uhh…”

Kate’s choppy words were so hard to tell where the bluff ended and the truth began. But because of that, Kelly gave up trying to read her expression.

All she wanted was to savor this shallow, hot vagina to the fullest and release inside it.

Thinking that, halfway through, she gripped the girl’s body with both hands, almost using the girl’s crotch as her own to masturbate herself.

And the wolf girl seemed to delight in it intensely.

“Ngh, ugh… I’m coming, I’m gonna cum…!”

“Semen… semen♪ Kelly-nii-chan’s semen, cover me with it!! Fill me up, fill me up completely♪”

“…Sorry, but I’ll… let you… take it all!!”

Thump, thump, thump...!!

Kelly's member was massive, and the amount of semen it produced was nothing short of extraordinary.

"Ahh... ah, ah...♪"

Feeling the overwhelming amount of fluid from the thrusting member gushing down to rape her eggs, Kate collapsed in a state of bliss while still impaled, her eyes rolling back.

"...Ugh, ugh..."

Meanwhile, Kelly, in a strangely deflated state right after ejaculation, felt an overwhelming sense of despair at having done something outrageous at the worst possible time.

"So, I guess I’m no longer a virgin."

"Kelly. Come here."

Mom’s iron fist.

"Why are you doing this with another species in the middle of it? Idiot!"

"Ahh..."

In the context of Mom’s words, it was indeed logical to finish inside the bovine ogre colony.

"Kelly-nii-chan, you’re not at fault. It’s really good."

"Sigh…"

My mother’s worries are deep. At least I can see my grandchild.

"...Hmm. Kate, acting without permission… Ugh!"

And the next assassin targets Kelly. Three weeks and two days left until Kelly’s vacation ends.

(To be continued)
