My revelation sparked Janis's curiosity, prompting her to inquire about the nature of my world. In response, I recounted every detail I could recall, observing a mixture of amusement and astonishment on her face.
The concept that magic was nonexistent on Earth utterly bewildered her. She struggled to conceive of a reality where magic, so universal in this world, held no influence in my world. As we exchanged stories throughout the day, I realized the vast disparity between our worlds, compounded by my limited knowledge of her village.
While I shared insights into the workings of my world with Janis, she reciprocated in kind, offering me glimpses into the complexities of her world.
The world I currently inhabit is known as Varnia, a vast world comprising four continents, each inhabited by a demon lord. It resembles the backdrop of a fantastical game, with these demon lords engaged in endless warfare against the various nations. This conflict has persisted for over a millennia, resulting in a relentless stalemate where neither side can secure a decisive victory.
Janis's earnest recounting of this seemingly surreal reality left me skeptical, yet her solemn demeanor dispelled doubts about her words' integrity.
However, amidst these revelations, I encountered a perplexing gap in understanding when I inquired about the men in the village. Janis's confusion at the term hinted at a significant disparity between our worlds, leaving me momentarily speechless as I contemplated the intricacies of this unfamiliar world.
When I questioned Janis about the concept of men in her village, her puzzled reaction hinted at a profound divergence between our worlds. Her genuine confusion when I mentioned the term left me momentarily silent, contemplating the difficulties of this unfamiliar society.
Further adding to my astonishment was Janis's explanation of how babies are conceived in her world. According to her, individuals must embark on a month-long prayer vigil at a temple dedicated to the Goddess of Fertility, beseeching for the blessing of a newborn beside them. This revelation shattered my preconceived notions, as pregnancy and childbirth were absent from their reality.
Of course, there were other conditions, such as your motive for becoming a mother. If the Goddess of Fertility deems that you are unworthy, having a child would become impossible.
After absorbing a wealth of information, fatigue washed over me. Night had descended, draining the energy I had earlier in the day.
"Feeling tired? Perhaps it's time for some rest. It's been a long day," Janis suggested, sensing my exhaustion. I retreated to my room and settled into bed, finding its comfort far superior to the forest floor.
As my consciousness was about to fade, footsteps outside my door caught my attention.
"Roy, are you still awake?" Janis entered without hesitation, her intentions unclear. There was no need to feign sleep, yet I couldn't shake my curiosity about Janis's motives.
"Hehehe~!" Did she just chuckle?
"???" Sensing her presence atop my bed, I could feel her breath faintly against my skin.
As the bed trembled, I realized Janis had joined me. What was her intention? My heart raced, unprepared for this development.
Though Janis might not grasp the distinction between genders, I certainly did, and it made me self-aware.
"You're adorable..." Was this some sort of prank? Her gentle tone threatened to make my heart leap from my chest.
The next moment was the final straw. Janis, lacking any clothing, wrapped her arms around me. Her bare skin touched mine, and only the fabric of my sleepwear separated us.
"Inner peace... Inner peace..." I chanted to myself desperately. But it was hard to find serenity with her chest pressed against my back.
What made the situation even more uncomfortable was that her legs were entwined with mine. Recalling Janis's explanation about the absence of gender distinctions in this world, was this merely her innocence at play, or was she toying with my emotions? I could only pray that Janis noticed nothing unusual about the area near my lower pants.
The night's onslaught didn't cease with an octopus-like embrace. For some inexplicable reason, she perversely rubbed against my body.
Her laughter and giggles sometimes echoed, reminiscent of a mischievous gremlin. She seemed to be thoroughly enjoying herself. Despite Janis's antics, I eventually succumbed to sleep, drained of my last remnants of energy.

"???" Waking up from my slumber, I found Janis's naked form right before me. She was awake, wearing a smile, and the blanket was conspicuously absent, at least from the top half.
With the morning light illuminating her birthday suit, it was challenging for healthy males to avert their gaze. Inexplicably, my clothes were nowhere to be found. Not even my pants remained, and I could sense dampness in certain areas of my body.
"Good morning~!" Janis greeted me, her eyes brimming with unmistakable desire. There was no attempt to conceal her actions.
Eroelves were a different breed altogether. I should have been furious at her behavior, yet it proved impossible, given her captivating appearance.
With my silence weighing heavily and my little brother stirring, the atmosphere in the room shifted.
"Good morning?" I managed only a wry smile in response to her greeting.
Instead of meeting my eyes, her gaze drifted downward to my groin. I couldn't fault her. I might have done the same in her place.
"It's growing..." She exclaimed as if she were witnessing something miraculous.
"???" My body involuntarily twitched in shock when she reached out to touch it.
"Wait! Stop! Hold on!" I interjected, halting her before she could act on her impulse.
Lost in her own world, my words seemed to go unheard. She persisted in poking and stroking as though it were some undiscovered, adorable creature.
