With Herta's insistence, how could Bochang possibly disagree?

And so...

led by driver Asta, the group arrived at the Central Starskiff Haven.

On their way, passing through the Exalting Sanctum,

Bochang also picked up Pascal and Sophia, his successful pet and familiar who were now ready to return.

As they walked along the paths of the Central Starskiff Haven,

Throughout the journey, Herta couldn't stop playing with Sophia... The little doll's hands roamed all over the familiar's body, causing her great discomfort. Repeatedly, Sophia looked towards Bochang for help.

Would it be effective? Of course not.

Bochang knew he would endure Herta's antics anyway.

For the sake of creating a realistic doll, he had to bear with it.

Additionally...

Bochang did try to restrain Herta somewhat; otherwise, she wouldn't have limited herself to merely feeling Sophia through her clothes. Instead, she would have stripped Sophia bare for closer examination.

"Fascinating, truly fascinating! Is this your power at work? Transforming stillness into motion... Remarkable, this little one even has reproductive organs. I wonder if she can conceive and what her offspring might look like?"

Herta's words infuriated Sophia so much that her eyes rolled back, and she fainted outright.

The foul-mouthed princess, being toyed with by the doll, naturally attempted resistance.

However...

It proved futile.

Sophia could only unleash a barrage of highly offensive curses, providing Bailu with ample vocabulary lessons.

Bochang remarked, "She likely can't bear children."

"Have you tried?" Herta's blunt question nearly made Bochang choke. He took a deep breath and responded, "Since any food Sophia consumes doesn't get digested, I believe her body lacks normal biological functions. She merely appears identical to a real person."

"Not being able to have children, that makes her similar to Vidyadhara," Bailu mused, her gaze towards Sophia now held a hint of pity.

Bochang's eyes shifted to the young dragon girl.

Indeed, Vidyadhara lacked reproductive capabilities.

Thus, there would be no consequences if...

Herta nodded, holding Sophia with one hand as she examined her closely.

"So that's the case. However... science demands rigor. What if she can actually bear children? I think it's best to conduct the experiment."

Upon hearing this, Sophia, who had been pretending to faint, started struggling again and spewed profanities:

"You fucking bastard! You piece of shit! Why don't you make your own mother try instead?"

"Can you make her shut up?" Herta glanced at Bochang, "She's too noisy."

[Dating Options have been activated.]

[Option 1: Threaten by saying, "Sophia, you wouldn't want to be turned back into a toy again... behave if you don't." - Completion Reward: Compel Sophia to commit suicide.]

[Option 2: Comfort Sophia with, "Hang in there, after this, I'll treat you to something delicious and try reviving your knight again." - Completion Reward: Herta's mysterious reward.]

[Option 3: Stop Herta's actions by stating, "Sophia is my familiar, not your experimental subject. Herta, you've seen enough already, it's time to return her to me." - Completion Reward: Obtain Skill 'Forced Conception', as implied by its name, this skill allows you to bypass reproductive barriers. Note: This skill must be actively used during ejaculation; no need to worry about uncontrollable breeding.]

Seeing Option 1 appear, Bochang realized he couldn't let Herta continue unchecked.

Between options two and three, Bochang hesitated slightly before ultimately choosing the third one.

"Sophia is my familiar, not your experimental subject, Herta. You've had enough time with her; it's now time to return her." Bochang extended his hand.

Struggling free from Herta's grasp, Sophia leaped onto Bochang's palm and swiftly climbed up his arm, reaching his shoulder in a flash.

After this flurry of movements...

Sophia panted heavily, exhausted.

[Reward being granted—Congratulations! You have obtained the skill: Forced Conception.]

"Fine, I'll give her back," Herta replied indifferently. "She's just a toy, why be so concerned? With your abilities, you can create as many like her as you wish. In fact...I could even help you make a life-sized doll. Once resurrected, wouldn't that be even more intriguing?"

Bochang shook his head, "Herta, I value sentimentality. Sophia has been by my side for some time, she isn't just any replaceable toy."

In agreement, March 7th, Stelle, and Serval nodded along.

They genuinely liked this little princess as well.

Especially Serval, being from Belobog, had grown up hearing stories about Sophia since childhood, which made her even more fond of the young princess.

Perched on Bochang's shoulder, Sophia clutched his ears with both hands. Upon hearing these words, her mood instantly improved, thinking to herself, "Master... still cares for me after all."

"Oh? How intriguing." Herta placed one hand on her hip, staring at Bochang with her icy purple eyes. "What if I offered you... a Herta doll in exchange?"

After a brief pause, Bochang replied, "No deal."

"You hesitated just now, didn't you?" A smile flickered across Herta's face.

Bochang immediately sensed her mischievous intent.

Sophia interjected, "Y-you better not try to sow discord between this princess and my master."

To be honest, when Sophia first saw Herta, she assumed they were going to be companions.

After all...

The doll's joints had distinct connection points clearly visible at a glance, indicating she was not an ordinary human.

Sophia thought Herta must be Bochang's new toy, so she emerged from Pascal's belly to greet her.

Unexpectedly, within the next moment, Herta grabbed and vigorously kneaded Sophia.

From subsequent conversations between Bochang and others, Sophia realized that Herta wasn't just another toy of Bochang's but rather a significant figure, commanding respect even from him.

Reflecting back now, Sophia wished she hadn't come out from Pascal's belly and should have stayed inside playing quietly instead.

Unaware of Sophia's thoughts, Herta checked her phone's map and said, "Bochang, we're almost at the laboratory. Are you prepared?"

"I'm ready," Bochang nodded.

Next...

Under Herta's guidance, they arrived at the laboratory gifted to her by Xianzhou Luofu.

It was not a large facility.

In total, it spanned only about three hundred square meters, with just five research personnel, but it was well-equipped with various instruments.

Herta took stock of the lab.

"Although somewhat modest compared to the space station, for now... it will suffice. Bochang, what are you waiting for? Quickly take off your clothes and change into a lab coat."

"Do we need to undress for the experiment?" March 7th looked puzzled.

Herta explained, "I have to perform a full-body examination on him, and his current attire would be inconvenient."
