Kelly Isaac. A bull ogre, standing 310 cm tall. 29 years old. Former heavy infantry. Decurion of the Northern Legion Crossbow Unit. 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 Unit 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 Unit, he is regarded as a prime candidate for promotion to Centurion in the next reorganization, alongside Decurion Anzelos of the Guard Infantry. Among officials, there is ongoing discussion regarding whether his unit would become the second division of the Crossbow Unit 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.

“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)
