The world I hear is completely different from yours.

"Monster Slayer" Ame and Kirito have arrived at the end of the street, in front of a small church.

"There's an NPC?!" Kirito pushed open the church door and found an old woman squatting in the corner. He quickly ran up to her and tried to talk to her to see if he could get any information or a quest.

Tian Qing walked to the empty altar and looked at the description below it: "Is the name of the deity in this church, the Formless Adan? Since the deity is formless, there is naturally no statue, so there is nothing on the altar. How can there be any faith in such a deity?"

"It seems these gods don't need any offerings or faith." Kirito walked over, looking puzzled. "According to that NPC, the gods here have no interest in spreading their faith; their only goal is to have humans give birth to their divine children."

Oh my god! These gods are so filthy! Upon hearing this, Tian Qing immediately tightened her clothes. Good heavens, these gods are terrifying! How can such filthy beings be gods? Are they some kind of people who aspire to spread their seed all over the world and cultivate themselves into gods?

Then Tianqing recalled the title of this deity: Adan the Formless, and felt a chill run down her spine. Could this formless deity be watching us from inside the church right now?

No way! How can I, the Third Hokage, suddenly get pregnant?! Just imagining myself standing before the entire village of Konoha with a bulging belly sends a torrent of curses running through my mind. "I don't want a future like 'Muzan, the Third Hokage'!!"

"Sage Mode! Full Listening Ability!!!" Tian Qing quickly activated her listening ability, attempting to detect the invisible, lewd deity, but the result was the same as before; she could only hear the meaningless roars of the surrounding objects.

Seeing the tense look on Ten's face, Kirito continued to add the information he had just obtained: "However, it is said that this deity and another deity known as the 'Daughter of the Universe' have heard the call of believers from another world and have descended to that world."

"After all, this is only the beginning of the game. The game designers certainly wouldn't let us players face such powerful enemies so quickly, right?" Kirito shrugged, looking as if he knew the game's flow by heart.

PS: All the gods have lost their children, and are searching for them. — Explanation of the umbilical cord in Bloodborne.

Chapter Five: My sister had this condition before she went to the orthopedics department.

Inside the NERvGear gaming company building, the intense gunfire gradually subsided.

Minami Minegishi kicked open the door to the building's main development office and rushed inside.

Along the way, he and his men engaged in fierce battles with all sorts of monsters, including giant-headed doll-like monsters, eerie assistants shedding bloody tears, and giant dogs with tentacles growing on their heads. Each one was more bizarre than the last, and each one was more insane and reckless than the last. Many police officers had already paid with their lives to reach this place, and many more had been seriously injured as a result.

Seeing his loyal subordinates suffering heavy casualties, Minami Minegishi was filled with rage and wished he could immediately go up and tear that designer named Kayaba Akihiko to pieces!

However, when Minami Minegishi thought of the orders he had just received from his superiors, all the anger in his heart was instantly extinguished, leaving only a cold feeling. Those higher-ups actually specifically requested that Kayaba Akihiko's life be protected? What did those people above take his and the police officers' sacrifices for?

"Kayaba Akihiko! All the monsters under your command have been wiped out! Why don't you surrender now?! In the name of justice, we will give you a fair trial!" Minami Minegishi shouted at Kayaba Akihiko, suppressing his anger.

Kayaba Akihiko knelt alone before an empty shrine, first bowing to the air within the shrine, before slowly turning around to look at the crowd that rushed in.

"Judgment? Who but my lord is qualified to judge others?! As for surrendering," Kayaba Akihiko's lips curled into a sneer, "do you think I don't know what awaits me?"

Minami Minegishi didn't answer. He knew perfectly well how much those powerful, elderly figures in the upper echelons valued Kayaba Akihiko. Cults had emerged countless times over the years, but they had all ultimately proven to be nothing more than con artists using magic tricks, possessing no supernatural powers whatsoever. Kayaba Akihiko, however, was completely different. The monsters and bizarre scenes along the way proved his strange powers. Therefore, once captured, he would face eternal study and imprisonment until every mystery surrounding him was completely drained.

Kayaba Akihiko showed no intention of waiting for a reply, but instead shouted loudly: "That being that sleeps eternally is not the dead. In the mystery of eternity, even death itself is lost! Praise be to the formless! My god has descended!"

Suddenly, an invisible wind swirled around him, like many invisible hands, brushing past everyone and spreading outwards, as if it were moving towards the whole world!

"Everyone be careful! Be on high alert!" Just as everyone was on high alert, as if facing a formidable enemy, Kayaba Akihiko's eyes rolled back and he fainted.

Meanwhile, in hospitals across the country, players trapped in the game began to wake up one after another.

......................

Kirito opened his eyes and stared at the unfamiliar ceiling of the hospital. The disconnect between his memories and the game was so strong that he was momentarily stunned.

"Monster... battle... Yharnam...!" Then he snapped out of it all; he'd actually logged out of the game and returned to reality?

Kirigaya Suguha pushed open the door to the hospital room and saw her brother awake. The basin of water in her hand fell to the ground with a "clatter." "Brother! You're finally awake!"

With great effort, Kirito raised his arm, which was muscular and grotesque from being bedridden for so long, and hugged his sister who rushed towards him, crying. He was filled with emotion, realizing that he had finally returned alive from that terrible game!

Then Kiritani Kazuto suddenly felt something was wrong. After not seeing her for a while, his beautiful younger sister seemed to have gained some weight.

Then Kirito discovered the reason: during the time he was unconscious, his younger sister had become pregnant.

Damn it! Who was it? Who the hell did this? Suguha isn't even 14 yet! How could you do this to an elementary school student? You're a complete scumbag and a beast!

Kirito was furious, so angry that his hands trembled.

Sensing her brother's unusual behavior, Kirigaya Suguha looked up, her eyes filled with tears, and stammered, "Brother, what's wrong?"

What else could it be? I'm going to be an uncle at 14 years old, what else could it be?

Of course, Kirito didn't dare to respond so loudly. Instead, he tried his best to suppress his anger and said calmly, "Suguha, we're both still young and not really suited to do this kind of thing. Of course, I'm not criticizing you. I believe you were just temporarily blinded by that man. By the way, can you tell me who he is?"

Kirigaya Suguha looked at her brother with an expression that said, "Brother, what exactly are you trying to say?"

"Um... um... whose child is it?"

"I don't know either." Kirigaya Suguha lowered her head, looking completely innocent. "Just a few days ago, it started to grow bigger on its own."

Oh my god, what happened to my sister? What happened to her while I was unconscious? Kirito was devastated. My sister couldn't have done that! She got pregnant and doesn't even know who the father is?

Kirito's mind was immediately filled with countless erotic doujinshi he had read, in which the heroines' faces were all replaced with his own sister's, and the content of each doujinshi was more extreme than the last, with more and more "opponents" in each one.

"I'm so sorry!" Kirigaya Kazuto hugged his younger sister tightly, tears streaming down his face. "I'm so sorry. It's all because I was so engrossed in games that I neglected you and caused you to end up like this. I'm so sorry!"

Kirigaya Suguha felt her brother's long-awaited embrace and couldn't help but sigh. How long had it been since her brother had a heart-to-heart talk with her since he became addicted to games? Although she didn't know why her brother suddenly said a lot of strange things after waking up, she guessed he was trying to express his guilt.

Therefore, Kirigaya Suguha didn't say anything more, but got up and called the doctor, preparing to tell her parents the good news that "her brother had woken up".

...............

As darkness fell, Tian Qing stood alone on the streets of Yanan.

Just as she and Kirito walked out of the church, preparing to return to the small garden to find the blonde doll girl and receive the next mission, Kirito's figure suddenly began to appear and disappear, as if a poor signal was causing the image to display abnormally. Then, before Tianqing could react, Kirito's figure completely disappeared.

All that remained was a floating dialog box with the words "Network connection interrupted" displayed in large letters.

. . . . . . . . . . .

PS: I went home early and am making up for today's update.

Chapter Six: A World Where You Could Get Pregnant in Public at Any Time

"Network connection interrupted?" Tian Qing looked at these extremely familiar words and couldn't help but subconsciously connect them to a game in her previous life that was known as "poisonous milk powder." Could it be that Tencent's clutches have already reached here?

However, Tianqing quickly realized that although she recognized these large characters, they were not the characters from her previous life. What she had just seen was merely a translation provided by the Devil's Egg. Even her previous conversation with Kirito was made possible by the real-time translation provided by the Devil's Egg.

"But speaking of which, where exactly did the Demon Egg teleport me this time? The fact that this dialog box popped up... does this world really feel like a virtual game world?" Tian Qing thought for a moment and immediately dismissed her guess. "No! Creating this kind of dialog box effect isn't difficult! Besides, I can still use summoning magic to summon physical entities like the Colossus, which proves that this world is a real physical world. It's just that someone added some fake special effects to make it look like a virtual game world!"

As for the purpose of doing so, Tianqing recalled the times when Kirito was accidentally killed by monsters and then revived. Although Kirito himself didn't feel anything, Tianqing, with his keen senses after activating Sage Mode, discovered that every time Kirito revived, his body seemed to become thinner and his personality became much colder, as if he had lost something after death!

"I understand now, this world is actually harvesting the souls of those players!" Tian Qing suddenly realized. "In fact, those so-called player characters are just the souls of those players themselves, stripped away by some force and transported here! That's why Kirito discovered that his character didn't have any great strength or speed at the beginning, just like an ordinary person, because that was originally his own appearance!"

"When those players are killed by monsters, they will be taken away by a creature after death, and a portion of their soul power will be extracted from their souls. They will then be resurrected to continue fighting, allowing these players to gradually recover from the wounds in their souls during the battle, waiting for the next harvest."

"Although this method can only collect a tiny amount of souls each time, it harvests players' souls continuously, like harvesting leeks. It's like treating a renewable resource, allowing for endless harvesting. Over time, it yields far more souls than if all the players' souls were devoured at once!"

"However, this would naturally require a constant stream of players. So, it seems that significant changes are beginning to occur in Kirito's world as well?"

.............................

Shizuka pushed open the door to the director's office at GNN TV station and rushed in, her face full of anxiety, showing none of the virtuousness and tranquility she once possessed as the station's number one beauty.

"Director, are you there!" Shizuka walked into the study and saw the director sitting at his desk, with his first and second female secretaries standing beside him.

Seeing that the station director remained silent, Shizuka grew even more anxious and snapped at the two female secretaries, "I have important matters to discuss with the station director. You two can leave now!"

The two secretaries didn't speak, but looked at Shizuka with arrogance, as if they were the station director's wife.

"You!!" Shizuka angrily raised her hand, pointing at the two female secretaries. These two seductive vixens, she would definitely get rid of them after she became the station director's wife!

Only then did the station director slowly raise his head, his face expressionless: "So you're here to talk about your pregnancy too?"

"Also?" Shizuka immediately noticed the key point in the station director's words. "You actually didn't even spare those two?"

Just as Shizuka was filled with anger and was about to yell and call everyone else from the TV station over for a public confrontation, the station manager, still expressionless, raised his glasses and looked at the three women in front of him: "You probably don't know, but I've actually been infertile for a long time, so I will never have children."

The three women turned deathly pale instantly!

.....................

Asuna Yuuki opened her eyes, exiting the game she had been trapped in for many days.

As a weak woman, her physical condition was not very good. Therefore, in the world of Yharnam, her game character had no power and naturally did not make any name for herself. She only managed to survive until the end and leave Yharnam by relying on her intelligence and resourcefulness to hide everywhere.

As the eldest daughter of the Yuuki family, Yuuki Asuna naturally had maids attending to her in her hospital room at all times. Therefore, when she woke up, her parents had already received the news and rushed over.

Seeing her mother's joyful tears, Asuna couldn't help but shed tears as well, the tears streaming down her cheeks and landing on her swollen belly.

"Huh???" Asuna Yuuki stared at her stomach in surprise, feeling the pulse of the little life inside, and was immediately at a loss. "What exactly happened while I was trapped in the game?"

The father silently turned on the TV, where a female reporter was reporting a news story that sounded like a fantasy: "Recently, many women around the world have suddenly become pregnant. The cause of the pregnancy is currently unknown. All that is known is that, regardless of whether they are married or unmarried, any woman who is capable of having children has a certain chance of becoming pregnant, and the fetuses in their wombs are developing very normally, no different from ordinary human fetuses."

Then, just as the female reporter was giving her report, her expression suddenly changed, and she clutched her stomach. Right before everyone's eyes, her stomach began to bulge noticeably!

"Ugh!" The female reporter covered her mouth, showing a nauseous expression, clearly exhibiting signs of vomiting due to pregnancy!

"Miss Natsuki! What's wrong with you! Hang in there!" Seeing the female reporter's condition, the photographer and others rushed over and helped put the pregnant reporter into the arriving ambulance. Just as the reporter was lying on the stretcher, the nurse holding the IV drip suddenly changed her expression and her belly swelled up, revealing that she was also pregnant in public!

The television screen immediately became chaotic, with the woman's painful cries during pregnancy mingling with the chaotic noises from those helping her, creating a complete mess.

Finally, the nurse who had come with the ambulance to take care of the female reporter also had to lie on the stretcher with her and be dragged back to the hospital by the ambulance. This could be considered a different kind of "coming out standing and going back lying down".

Yuuki Asuna, watching TV, was completely bewildered. Had her world gone too far? What on earth was going on?

..............

Chapter Seven Umbilical Cord

After careful calculation, she realized she had been alone in Yanan for seven days! Even with Tian Qing's patience, she was starting to get impatient.

In this strange place, no matter how many times the enemy is killed, whether by assassination, burning, or being torn apart by five horses, as long as the weather clears and you return to the small garden, and then return to the streets of Yharnam, those monsters will come back to life, jumping around and waving their weapons as they charge at you!

Therefore, during the few days that Tianqing stayed in Yanan, she did only one thing: monotonously and boringly kill monsters. She would kill a dozen or so monsters in the morning to whet her appetite, then have breakfast, and then kill monsters for another morning. After lunch, she would take a nap and continue killing. Before going to bed at night, she would kill a few more. This cycle repeated itself for several days. Even the very patient Tianqing had reached the point where she felt like throwing up whenever she saw a monster!

For Tianqing, who has no game system and isn't a player at all, killing these monsters is just a pure waste of his stamina, offering absolutely no benefit, not even experience points! Let alone any quest rewards!

"This won't do! I came to this world to improve my own strength, not to bless these monsters!" Thinking of this, Tian Qing had no choice but to take out the Demon Egg again. "I still have a little bit of the Savior's Aura I absorbed in the One Piece world last time. I originally wanted to save it as a last resort, but now it seems I have no choice but to use it. You can't catch a wolf without risking your cub!"

"Savior Aura activated! Good Luck Aura!"

The aura of good fortune is precisely the preferential treatment the world bestows upon saviors. After all, how could a savior be without all sorts of extraordinary encounters? Jumping off a cliff and finding a martial arts manual, being beaten half to death and then being rescued by a master—these are all minor occurrences. For example, finding a divine artifact while brushing one's teeth in the bathroom, or discovering an ancient elixir in food at a roadside stall—these seemingly unbelievable things frequently happen to saviors under the blessing of this aura of good fortune!

Therefore, after Tian Qing activated her lucky aura, a courtyard that she had already fought her way in and out of seven times and searched several times suddenly revealed a hidden passage when Tian Qing accidentally stepped into a hole!

Following this passage, Tian Qing walked forward and entered an abandoned factory. On the factory counter, he found a black, curled object.

When Tian Qing approached the object, the Demon Egg, which had been silent until now, jumped out for the first time and gave a prompt: "Host has discovered item: One-third of God's umbilical cord."

The umbilical cord is a vital organ connecting the fetus and the mother. The fetus receives nutrients from the mother through the umbilical cord for growth and development; therefore, the umbilical cord that falls off contains crucial genetic information for the fetus. If this is true for the human umbilical cord, what important information does the umbilical cord of a deity contain?

When Tian Qing picked up the umbilical cord, she suddenly realized that the aura of good luck around her was starting to dissipate rapidly!

"Is it because I acquired something too valuable that I used up all my good luck?"

Then, alarm bells rang in Tian Qing's mind. In her perception, everything around her—the walls, the tables, and even the ground beneath her feet—suddenly opened its "eyes," staring at her fiercely and radiating endless malice! It was as if the entire world had suddenly awakened from its slumber, regarding her as an enemy, ready to rush over and tear her in two!
