William was still a little dazed. Although he had indeed seen a flock of sheep charging toward him on the Marginal Skin Plain, he had no memory of what happened afterward.
At that critical moment, William had even prepared to replace his personality and tried calling out to the moon.
"Lainey... where is this?"
"The Forest of Incubation in the former Source Plague Zone~ It's nowhere near as good as it used to be, but under Mother's protection, everyone's still living fairly peacefully."
"The former Source Plague Zone? Since the forest still exists, and since all of you still exist, why was the Source Plague Zone abolished?"
"Because our function was completely locked away. Or rather, the entire Old World's rules regarding reproduction were thoroughly sealed off, and even completely destroyed. It was no longer possible to quickly give birth to new life through the Liquid of Conception.
The once-prosperous Forest of Incubation was left unattended. All the customers who used to sow their seeds here in large quantities had left, and the Reproduction Lines connected to every corner of the Old World, along with the Nurturing Centers, had all been abandoned.
The sheep were once labeled 'The Abandoned,' but after the World Infection, Mother and the others were able to use the reproduction rules of that world to rebuild their race.
My birth was a good omen, so Mother values me greatly.
Also, the Newborn Church you destroyed, Big Brother, was a Human Organization that worshiped Mother and tried to establish a new reproduction network."
"Several rules of the Old World were sealed away, including reproduction? I see.
"In any case, thank you for rescuing me. Also, you don't have to call me Big Brother. You've grown up too, so just call me William."
"Mm! William, you're really amazing!
