Chapter 4 Did the Female Stone Break?

Rona Resh dropped a drop of blood onto the female stone.

Soon, the female stone emitted a dazzling bright light, but the light quickly dissipated.

Grom smiled and said, "Congratulations, Superior Fertility."

"Thank you, Witch Clan." Rona had already tested herself with the female stone, so she was not surprised by the result.

She turned to look at Sally, and for some reason, ever since meeting her, she had felt an instinctive dread of her.

"Sally Millet, who only registered to participate in the adult ceremony two days ago. It really surprised me at that time, and today I've witnessed in person, a very beautiful female. Come now, good girl. Let the Witch Clan see how your Fertility Strength fares?" Grom said with a kind smile.

Sally walked over, her clothes ill-fitting, making her movements seem loose and hollow, along with the gazes that fell on her body, which, aside from curiosity, mostly carried a disgraceful lewdness.

When she reached the female stone, she asked the Witch Clan, "Can the female stone detect a pregnancy if one has already occurred?"

Grom looked at her with surprise, his eyes drifting down to her abdomen, "Are you, pregnant?"

Sally was uncertain how the other party would react if they knew she was pregnant, so she didn't rashly admit it, "I was just curious."

Seeing her composed and straightforward demeanor, Grom answered, "The female stone only checks for Fertility Strength, being pregnant won't affect the test result."

"Oh." Sally didn't ask anything further, and took out a bone needle from the pouch hanging at her waist, pricking her finger.

A bead of bright red blood fell onto the female stone.

The female stone had no reaction.

Sally: "...?"

Grom rubbed his aged eyes, thinking they were playing tricks on him, and after looking closely at the female stone again, there was still no reaction.

"How can this be! Even the lowest level of Fertility Strength, even if it's a male, there would be at least some reaction."

Everyone was seeing this situation for the first time, not even a flicker of a glow was present.

"Could the female stone be broken?" Lin Lang shouted.

Indeed, that was a possibility.

Grom immediately switched to another female stone.

However, after switching to a different female stone, there was still no reaction.

Sally wondered if it could be a soul issue, after all, she was not truly a little white mouse.

"In that case, we can only classify it as lower-level Fertility for now." Grom didn't hesitate, and by his estimation, she was just a lower-level Fertility Strength individual.

Sally's complexion looked somewhat displeased, "You didn't even get a result, how can you say I am lower-level."

"Sally! Do not speak back to the Witch Clan." Robby called out softly from below the stage.

"If there is no reaction, maybe I am the highest level of Fertility Strength, the kind that gets pregnant at a touch, exceeding the predictive range of the female stone."

Grom's eyes turned slightly cold; he had never been questioned like this, "The possibility you speak of is not nonexistent."

Sally continued, "Therefore, my Fertility Strength level should be considered tentative. Wouldn't it be more convincing to see my real Fertility Strength in the future and judge it then?"

Grom hadn't expected her to be so adept at arguing, "Where were you raised before this?"

Sally replied, "In the Senyu Beast Forest. I originally had eight brothers, they all died, and so did my mother."

"What? Your mother gave birth to nine in one birth?!" Grom was astonished. Because even among the entire Beastman Clan, the highest number of multiple births was seven.

"Right." Sally replied.

Grom was shocked.

Everyone was taken aback; it was common to have two or three offspring, and those with lower fertility might have just one.

Of course, it did not exclude the scenario where, during the fetal period, one with an excessively dominant innate talent would devour its siblings.

"I am my mother's only daughter, and I will inherit the physique to bear children, just as she could!" Sally spoke earnestly and seriously.
