You think you're worthy of saving the world?

“Of course it is!” The village chief’s fighting spirit was ignited. “The priestess is the most beautiful woman on the island!”

"Compared to Miss Chaika?" the black-haired boy teased.

“Yuri!” Chaika exclaimed, her face flushed.

"How can this outsider be compared to the priestess!" the village chief said disdainfully.

"That hurts so much...!" Chaika pouted.

"Alright, I'll try to arrange a meeting between you and the priestess."

The village chief stroked his chin and said, "But don't get your hopes up too high. I'm just the village chief of this village. There are several other villages besides this one, so I can't make all the decisions about things on the island."

“We are already very grateful for your kind gesture,” Jaika said happily.

"Emir!" The village chief turned around and shouted at the door.

After a while, a long-haired woman in her thirties, dressed in the island's traditional clothing, entered the house.

Behind her was a petite girl, about seven or eight years old.

"Are you calling me, Father?" The woman walked respectfully to the village chief's side.

They appear to be the village chief's daughter and granddaughter.

Or perhaps it's the daughter-in-law and granddaughter.

"Take them on a tour of the village and find a spare house for them to settle down."

"Oh, and dinner for them tonight, prepare it," the village chief said.

"I understand. Please follow me, both of you."

The woman looked at Yuri and Chaika.

Her daughter (?) also peeked at the unfamiliar outsider from behind her mother, and Jaika gave the little girl a kind smile.

After that, Yuri and Jaika left the village chief's house with Emil.

After asking around, I learned a little about the situation.

“The village chief’s son… my husband disappeared five years ago while fishing at sea and never came back,” the woman said calmly.

"I see... Please accept my condolences, Madam."

After Jaika spoke with a gloomy expression, Emil showed a dismissive look.

"That guy isn't really dead, he escaped from the island anyway, right?"

I wonder which country on the mainland is enjoying itself to the fullest right now.

"Huh?" Chaika looked surprised.

She thought the woman's husband had died in a shipwreck, but the woman herself didn't seem to think so.

"Is this weird?"

Emil gave Jaika a meaningful once-over and said sarcastically, “No wonder she’s a woman from the mainland, young, beautiful and fashionable… It’s no wonder the men are running away from the island.”

"Ugh."

Jaika lowered her head, unsure of what to say.

Yuri moved closer: "No, even on the mainland, there aren't many beauties like Jiayika, I can guarantee that."

Besides, I think the lady still retains her charm~

She's clearly very charming, yet her husband ran away. Could it be due to a personality issue?

"you……!"

Emil glared at the boy, his cheeks slightly flushed, and Yuri returned the glare with equal sharpness: "I said, can we please stop talking about this kind of thing in front of the child?"

"..."

The woman looked to the side in surprise and found her daughter huddled behind Jaika.

Hearing her mother constantly badmouthing her father, the girl's slender body trembled slightly, like a kitten.

"Hmph... Anyway, this brat will leave me one day."

Emil snorted and said nothing more.

After walking for nearly an hour, Yuri and Jiaika were led on a walk around the small village.

They gained a general understanding of the village's facilities and other conditions.

After that, Emil led the two to an empty room in a corner of the village.

“I’m sorry, there’s only one vacant house left in the village,” she said.

"Ah, it's okay, it's okay! It's alright if I live with Yuri... right?"

Chaika glanced at the boy beside her, and Yuri nodded: "No problem."

"That's good."

After briefly explaining some of the rules for living in the village, Emil turned and left to prepare dinner for the two of them.

As for her daughter, Emily, she was left behind.

Chaika seems to be very popular with children her age.

Emily has been clinging to her ever since.

"Sister Chaika..." the little girl called out her name in a muffled voice, her eyes filled with longing as she spoke in a coquettish tone.

Jaika was pleased by her mother's reaction, but she couldn't help but think of her mother's earlier words, "This child will leave me sooner or later," and her feelings were somewhat complicated.

"Emily~"

Hearing the black-haired boy call her name, the little girl snuggled into Chaika's arms.

“The difference in attitude is huge…” Yuri said dejectedly.

"Hoo hoo hoo, that's the difference in character! Don't let my appearance fool you, I'm actually quite popular with the students." Chaika proudly puffed out her chest.

"Emily, shouldn't you go help your mother prepare dinner?"

Yuri said, "If you keep playing here, Mom might be angry when you get home tonight."

"Mom... will be angry!?" The girl's eyes widened, her cute face instantly filled with fear.

"Why are you scaring her?" Chaika hugged Emily and glared at Yuri.

"Sister Chaika! I'm going to help Mommy!" Emily broke free from her embrace and skipped towards the door.

"Ah, okay... how about I go help too?"

Yuri grabbed her wrist.

"You stay here."

They forcibly kept Jiaika in the room.

In this way, they were finally able to be alone together again.

"Have something to say?"

"Yes, let's discuss what to do next."

"It's the same as talking about it after dinner."

Yuri glanced at the girl with puffed-up cheeks and braided hair, then suddenly grinned slyly.

"Jiaika, do you know why the villagers let us in without the village chief's permission in the first place?"

"Because everyone is so warm and hospitable?" the girl said, tilting her head.

Yuri shook his head: "Do you still remember the explanation of the singularity?"

—To appease the dragon god of the island, the village holds a "Crimson Festival" every month, offering a young girl to the dragon god.

“Yes, I remember.” Chaika nodded. “So what?”

"One girl per month, that's 12 girls a year."

Yuri narrowed his eyes: "How many newborns do you think a cluster of villages with such low productivity could have each year?"

"!"

Chaika's pupils dilated slightly, and Yuri continued.

"For large countries or wealthy lords, providing 12 girls every year is not a problem."

However, in such ecologically isolated primitive villages, the female population decreases by 12 compared to the male population every year, which will inevitably lead to very serious problems in the long run.

“The gender imbalance…” Chaika murmured.

She recalled what she had seen and heard when Emil led her on a tour of the village.

Most of the villagers are elderly men; there are not many female villagers.

Within their field of vision, the male-to-female ratio was an astonishing 1.5:1.

As for the girls, none of them were seen except for Emily.

"so……"

Yuri glanced at the girl's rounded buttocks beside him and said with a smile, "People on the island would certainly welcome a young woman from out of town like Miss Chaika."

"You...you mean...!"

Jaika hugged her arms tightly, her cheeks flushed, and she bit her lip: "Will I... will I be attacked by men on the island?"

"Huh? Why would you think that? You're just being delusional."

Yuri rolled her eyes. "Have you been playing too many 18+ games?"

Indeed, isolated island villages far removed from urban civilization, with their eerie and mysterious customs and traditions, make this environment a veritable resource library for 18+ games, especially those featuring NTR characters.

But that's just a game.

According to Yuri's speculation, the island has very strict rules and a fairly high level of morality.

The idea of ​​forcibly taking foreign women is unlikely to happen on this island.

"So what do you want to say?" Chaika frowned slightly.
