No Beast Girls on the Western Front

Page 121

Although she knew there were no exceptions, Lacey still seemed somewhat disappointed. "That's how it is."

Alpha's ears then drooped down quickly, almost completely flat against his head, just like Ella's droopy ears.

While it's not typical of Alpha to be saddened by not being able to eat delicious food, it doesn't seem like it's due to hormones from the diverging organ... either.

According to Lacey, when using a splitter, shouldn't you be focused solely on splitting the circuit?

That being said, Payne actually wished that some mysterious power would suddenly descend upon them and rescue them from the shackles of the Divergent.

Oh wait, actually, it's me who needs saving...

However, in the long run, the branching device is indeed a huge difference between beast girls and humans.

If a balance is not found between the two sides, then beast girls will never be able to integrate into human society, or they will always be inferior to humans.

Sigh... what a troubling problem.

Simply providing basic literacy education, teaching them a skill, or even giving them a systematic education will not solve this problem.

In other words, my personal efforts alone, or even the enormous efforts made by the whole society, are far from enough.

How far into the future will it be before I see the beast girls stand up? A hundred years? Two hundred years? ...

Payne considered this issue at this juncture for two reasons: first, to escape the fact that he was being gradually overwhelmed by three restless beasts; and second, to console himself by occupying the moral high ground when he couldn't gain physical dominance.

He clearly cared deeply for the common people, but they showed him no compassion whatsoever, and even repaid kindness with enmity, trying to extract more from him.

Everyone has seen it! It's not that I, a virtuous gentleman, don't care about the world; it's just that some treacherous people want to harm me!

However, he soon found himself unable to comfort himself with moral high ground.

His earlier remark, "Everyone saw it," was just a casual remark; he knew there wouldn't be any other audience members. But he soon noticed with growing alarm that when Alpha was the first to step onto the stage, the other two beasts showed no sign of leaving...

What are you trying to do now?!?!

Chapter 190 CLXXXIX. Practice Makes Perfect

Payne didn't know if Lyle had heard something, but he wanted to describe Lyle as "smelling something and coming over."

"Paine, I heard you've been having a good time with your orcs lately?~~"

On a cold and windy morning, Payne, who was crouching in the trench keeping watch, could only smile wearily as Lyle walked towards him with a comical expression on his face.

"Yes, as you can see, he's still alive."

"Haha, you've really had a tough time... Any progress?~~"

"Yes, I have successfully survived Xiao En's splitter."

"Oh dear! That's not what I meant..."

"The orcs' favorability has been maxed out. Unless I can save their lives on the battlefield, there's not much room for improvement."

"No, no! What I wanted to ask is, has your stamina improved?"

Looking at Lyle's increasingly comical smile, Payne could only roll his eyes.

Lyle is that kind of person. He usually seems quite serious, but as soon as he's in front of people he knows well, his conversation quickly turns vulgar and tasteless.

Fortunately, Payne's moral standards weren't that high either. After spending a year and a half on the battlefield, he had become corrupted by the world's evils, and he smoothly continued the conversation:

"Are you stupid? Neither evolution nor what you're saying is based on the principle of 'use it or lose it'! Let alone the idea of ​​using me to the point of becoming useless!"

"Huh? Isn't this good? Why do I feel like you're not very happy?"

"..."

Looking at Lyle's envious expression, Payne truly understood what it meant when "when someone is just the right amount of stupid, you can't even tell if they're cross-dressing"...

Fortunately, Payne soon stopped worrying about it because Lyle changed the subject himself.

He leaned close to Payne's ear and whispered, "Tell me... what does it feel like to be an orc?"

“What else could it feel like…” Payne said dismissively, “Except for having ears on its head and a tail on its back, it’s just like a human in every other way.”

"No, no, I mean... inside."

Payne was a little speechless. "...Um...I don't know, I didn't feel any difference."

"Oh? Really?" Lyle looked at him with a comically skeptical gaze. "Your liking for orcs has almost reached inhuman levels. Have you really had anything with human women?"

Payne was speechless for two reasons: "First of all, I am not anti-human, otherwise why would I fight alongside you?"

"Secondly, I have never done it, but my primary consideration for not going to brothels is health, and secondly, I believe that spiritual relationships are more important than physical relationships."

"So spiritual relationships are more important, huh..." Lyle's expression, unusually, wasn't so comical anymore. "Then what about you and the orcs..."

"Orcs have splitters, there's nothing we can do about it."

Okay then~~

At this point, Payne also began to think about a question he had never considered before:

He really knew very little about the things animals use to give birth. Before his transmigration, he only knew about them through a few self-media outlets that reposted strange content. The differences between many animals and humans are indeed enormous.

However, many of the animals mentioned in those self-media articles are not even mammals; they have long since diverged from humans in the kingdom, phylum, class, order, family, genus, and species hierarchy.

The animals mentioned have virtually no use in human society other than providing meat (such as chickens and ducks), so the Dexter Empire had no interest in turning those animals into beast girls, and Paine had no chance to experience it.

Naturally, the people of this world haven't started systematically studying animal breeding factories yet, and Payne doesn't even have anywhere to look up information.

Should I do some research in this area after the war is over?

After all, animal science and animal science often overlap significantly...

Just as Payne was contemplating his life plans, Lyle's sigh interrupted him once again: "Ugh... I really wish I could accept orcs... that would make things much easier and more enjoyable~~"

And that's not all; he even raised an eyebrow at Payne.

Payne immediately shivered, took a half-step back, and said warily:

"What do you want? Get away from my orcs! ...You bastard, I treated you like a brother, what do you take me for?!"

"Haha, just kidding, just kidding, don't be so nervous."

Lyle stepped forward and hugged Payne, then continued:

"I know you have a really good relationship with your orc wives, but I never intended to be a third party... wait, wait, there seem to be more than three..."

Reminded by his words, Payne instantly recalled what had happened last night, and his eyebrows twitched violently.

Lyle seemed to be pondering something, and after a few seconds, he asked again, "So, it seems that humans and orcs can develop feelings for each other over time?"

Payne glanced at him sideways. "What, is that not allowed?"

"Okay, okay, of course, if you say so, then so be it."

Lyle nodded, then seemed to ponder, "It seems the difference between orcs and humans is much smaller than I thought..."

Pine: "There's really not much difference..."

Although the method and perspective are a bit strange, it's a good thing that there's now another person who's become more interested in orcs.

"Hmm... if I have the chance in the future, I'll try to become a beast tamer." With that, Lyle withdrew his arm.

Upon hearing this, Payne seemed to snap out of his daze and immediately advised him, "Although I can't smell it, everyone else says that orcs have a strong odor. Think it over before you speak."

"Besides, assigning you a few orcs isn't the same as assigning you a few Starfury. Orcs have a kind of splitter mechanism, and if you don't control their splitter mechanism, their resistance might be beyond your imagination..."

But Lyle didn't take it seriously, waving his hand and saying, "Okay, okay, I know, we'll talk about it later."

"Besides, instead of worrying about me, you should hurry up and find a human wife to marry. Miss Mary, who often comes to see you, seems pretty good to me, doesn't she? Do you need my help to win her over?"

"Oh, by the way, I heard you've been having a tough time these days. I imagine your married life won't be easy either. Do you need some skincare advice?"

Payne had lost count of how many times he'd rolled his eyes at him, and could only sigh before saying, "Last night... I finally accomplished... a great feat..."

"What's even more damning is...!?! I really don't know what's wrong with those three—their dog brains and sheep brains!!...

"Of course, the most crucial thing is that, just after Xiao En's performance ends..."

This time, Payne didn't even need to say anything. Lyle, who was terrified, immediately bowed slightly, said "I was presumptuous," and then turned and left.

Heh, you just need to practice cooking more.

Chapter 191 CXC. Almost went mad.

"Wait a minute, Xiao En, you can stay here for a bit."

As bedtime approached, Xiao En was about to leave the shelter with the other beast girls when she was suddenly frozen in place by a stern remark from Payne.

She mentally prepared herself for several seconds before turning around with a forced smile. "Um...did I do something wrong?"

Payne, who had been looking serious just moments before, immediately burst into laughter. "I haven't even said anything yet, and you already think you've made a mistake?"

"Okay, then you can tell me yourself what mistake you think you made later."

"...!"

Xiao En immediately realized that she had been tricked.

But just as she was about to speak up, she saw Lacey and Alpha sitting on either side of Payne like bodyguards, with both dogs' ears and heads drooping. So she swallowed her words.

She had only noticed the dogs' reaction when she subconsciously wondered if she had done something wrong.

But when she sat down opposite Payne with her ears and head drooping, no matter how hard she tried, she couldn't figure out what she had done wrong.

If I had to say, she did a really bad job on today's multiplication and division homework, but Payne also said that she's only just started learning, so the number of mistakes isn't a big deal...

Fortunately, Payne wasn't interested in waiting for her and quickly asked, "What happened last night? Did the three beasts bully this weak and helpless human?"

Oh, so that's what it is.

Xiao En had considered that Payne might use this incident to question them, but nothing happened after a whole day, so she assumed he was having too much fun and forgave them...

There was a moment of silence between the one person and the three beasts, before Lacey finally spoke first: "Ahaha, well... one beast means one time the fun, so I was thinking that three beasts would mean three times the fun..."

Payne glared at her immediately. "You're already using the multiplication you just learned?!"

So Lacey shrank back and stopped talking.

Just as Alpha was about to speak, Payne yelled at him, "What's wrong with you now? Why did you do it one more time than we agreed on?!"

"If Lacey hadn't bitten the back of your neck, were you planning not to get down?!"
