Harem Reborn - Chapter 282
[Day 14/1825 on The Godless Green Earth A.I World]
Thirty robotic gorillas stormed into the track, but I was ready this time, or I thought I was. I tried to bury the monsters the same way I smashed the big guy last time, but this time, not even the boulders seemed to do any damage to them.
I pulled back after they started to throw the boulders at me. I stopped most of them, but they came like a hailstorm, and I wasn’t as strong as I was yesterday.

Ya, this was not going to be easy, but the defenses Gripton had set up were doing their jobs, and the Fireballs and Transparite shard were doing damage. The problem was that the gorillas were moving too fast.
Most of the defense needed time to aim or time for the spell to target. Unlike when I had used the magic in the previous game, these circles didn’t stop the enemy so most got out of the way.
I pulled water up and mixed it with the dirt to bog them down and that let the towers catch up with them. I had to keep back and once they got past the first one they tried to jump up on the walls but I wasn’t going to let that happen.
I didn’t have a lot of power, and after the couple mud pits I had created, I was already starting to feel some of the strain. I might have to get some actual rest tonight, the girls had kept me up pretty late.
Luckily, there were only about twelve of the gorillas left and I was able to throw stones in their way so the towers could finish them off. They had only made it halfway this time, so it had been worth the loss of power, plus I wasn’t supposed to be doing the heavy lifting anyway.
Soon, all the robots we took down and we had survived for another day.
Suddenly, flashes start appearing in different spots up above. They had to be more tower, but I couldn’t see them from this far down, and I would be able to tell if I looked at them on the menu.
Instead, I pulled up my total gi and gaped when I saw how much I had.

“I put the points to good use! I can tell you were just itching to give me a tongue lashing, but you don’t need to be out here. I have the defense set good enough for now, you need some rest and time to relax. With the girls. Hint, hint,” Gripton said from behind me.
“You could have put an easier system in place for this, right?” I asked him as we floated back.
I had to let go of the large chunk of the earth I walked on before and now I just rode on a single dirt clump. The Gi I had should be enough to fly easily, but I was exhausted from using it in the fight, and now it felt harder than before to use.
“Are you trying to tell me that having sex five times isn’t efficient? I thought it was a great system! You also shouldn’t have been attacked but something like The Major already, but it is what it is,” Gripton said with a sigh. “You know this wasn’t supposed to be like this. We made the plan before anyone else knew and we got everything in place. We only loaded in the four other gods before you entered, so then how did Reginold get in?”
“I know you were here in your world while the start-up happened, but then what happened? You got sucked into the game?”
“I think it was something like that. He couldn’t rewrite me, or the others, so he used a scanner program to place blocks, to make me part of the game. From there I had to follow the same path with Hyde, forced to feed him lies like Dansei had to with you.”
“Once we complete this and I try to reset the first twelve levels, Reginold won’t be able to come back, he will be locked out of the game. But that just means that if he dies, he will be reborn in the next world. When we get back, and Hyde is entering his next world, you need to tell him that he has to find a way to trap Reginold. That’s the only way we will be able to complete the game is if he prevents him from getting to the last world,” I told Gripton as we finally entered back into the city, but he was already gone.
“Hey, boss! Do you have time to visit with some old friends?” I heard Kazuya call from down below.
I lowered myself down, and I was surprised to only see Miala with him. I stepped off the dirt and onto the glass plaza, I had made this place to be something beautiful with small flowing waterfalls that I grew up from the ground.
“Where are Garry and Tali?” I asked as I gave the two a hug.
It really did feel like too long, but both of them were smiling. I could see that Miala was starting to get a belly, so It would seem that they had been busy.
“They stayed home with the kids,” Miala said, grabbing Kazuya’s hand.
“Kids? How many do they have already?” I asked curiously.
“They have two and they are watching our one right now so we could come and say hello. We barely see each other anymore and you have done so much for us,” Kazuya said with a smile.
“But I couldn’t have done it without you all. I may direct you, but I need all of you just like you need me, but I am going to be having some time off for a couple days. So, maybe I will get the girls and we can go camping or to the beach,” I said, clapping him on the shoulder with my hand.
“I don’t know what either of these things is, but It sounds good! Well, we have this child tonight and we can be ready for tomorrow!” Kazuya said with a laugh, putting his arm around Man’s shoulders, and she hugged them back.
“Well will get one of the neighbors to watch the children, and we will get Garry and Tali to come as well!” Miala said with excitement.
“Woah, wait! What do you mean? You can just go and have a baby and then leave then the next day?” I asked with concern.
Maybe I had been a little lax on the parenting classes, but I was sure Grace would have explained to them. They couldn’t just leave a newborn baby right after it was born!
“No, you will have to come and see, in the morning, come by our place, and we will show you what we mean. The children grow fast,” Miala said with a smile.
“I will have to take you up on that offer this time. I am interested to see how it works before I have my own child.”
“Wait, you haven’t had any children yet? What have you been doing?” Kazuya asked me with a bewildered look.
“Hey! I built the city and stuff! I have been doing things and helping,” I complained.
“Well, maybe you should just go experience childbirth for yourself?” Miala asked me.
“I don’t like when you say it like that. I don’t really want to experience it. I want to say ‘push!’ and get yelled at, and called horrible names. So, I guess that would be considered experiencing it, right?” I asked, a bit confused, but I caught a confused look back from the others.
“What are you pushing and what did you do to get called such horrible names?” Kazuya asked, looking distressed and confused now.
“What? There is no pushing? I am not going to get yelled at?” I asked.
“I think you need to go and just have a baby, then tomorrow you will understand,” Miala said with a smile, pulling Kazuya away with her.
He smiled and waved back to me, before fully turning around to follow her. I was pretty confused; I understood how a woman had a child, but the way they talked made it sound like it was something completely different.
I guess that should be considered a good thing, but I didn’t like how Miala had said just go have a child. I felt like I was being told to go have a snack and everything would be revealed to me.
I floated up into the air thinking about all the different ways that I could happen, but maybe Mikota already knew? Hell, all the girls should already know!
They had been all hanging around the others while I laid out plans for the city. It was time to go get some answers.
