A peaceful park on a late February afternoon.

The wind was calm and the sun was shining brightly, so I went on a picnic with Reira.

It's still winter, but the sunlight is warm on my body, which is used to the cold.

The summer solstice and winter solstice are the same as in my previous life, so the days have already gotten longer.

Of course I don't have hay fever, and there are quite a few other boys and protection officers basking in the sun.

During that afternoon, I was reading a book.

It's a history book of the "Current world."

It's a continuation of the previous world and God's punishment.

"After God's punishment, the male population was drastically reduced, and each country was forced to change its appearance.

Countries whose populations have been cut in half and are now dominated by women have found it difficult to maintain their national territory as before.

The frontiers were discarded and areas that required a lot of effort to live were abandoned. People prioritized the redevelopment of areas suitable for living and production, and remade society so that women could maintain it even if they were the main actors.

During this process, it became impossible to maintain armies, and the armies of each country were abolished.

No country could afford to invade or intervene in another country, and all the war had disappeared..

Around that time, a number of countries appeared where the female class gained power and monopolized the scarce men within the country.

However, when men are lost in daily life and the general population becomes a group made up of only women, the women's personalities become "Violent", and the country is filled with strife, eventually collapsing as a nation, and its residents becoming refugees and moving to surrounding countries. It was absorbed.

In this way, it has become clear that when a group of women only emerges, the women's personalities in that group change significantly.

On the other hand, there were times when countries appeared that tried to make men rule society and enslave women in general, but God's punishment caused a decrease in the birth rate of boys and a "dilution of the male personality," causing men to control women. He began to show a refusal and boredom with control. As a result, there are no longer any countries where men remain in the ruling class.

After 200 years of chaos after God's punishment, the countries of the world decided to cooperate and survive in the world in order to cope with loss and change.

Then, 300 years ago, the "World Strategic Organization" was established, and all countries joined to work toward the survival of humanity on a global scale. The World Strategic Organization was operated centering around the Five Great Councils, which were made up of five countries, and the members of the Five Great Councils represented each continent: Els, Hyde, Nangara, Faria, and Akebono.

As countries lost their male labor force, they no longer had sufficient power to maintain production, and the World Strategic Organization decided to overcome the market turmoil caused by this imbalance by rationalizing the trade system.

Therefore, the World Strategic Organization absorbed the risks of changes in circumstances and trade accidents, managed demand fluctuations, and implemented policies to stabilize market prices on a global scale.

Under the leadership of the World Strategic Organization, each country began to rationalize agricultural and industrial production and intellectual property rights, aiming to achieve both free competition and rational distribution.

In order to maintain a society in which women were inferior in physical strength to men, national research and development focused capital investment on mechanization, automation, and diversification.

As a result, production equipment has become more versatile rather than specialized, and it has become possible to manufacture a variety of products with a single production equipment without increasing production costs. The spread of multi-purpose production equipment has greatly reduced inventory capital, including labor, and has greatly contributed to reducing costs and negative surplus.

The mechanization and automation of logistics and storage have progressed, and although it is less speedy, it has significantly reduced costs and labor burdens.

The systematic release of research and development results to each country has made it possible to rationally allocate social capital, and the trade philosophy that prioritizes comparative advantage and differential profits has receded, and the world's social economy has shifted from the pursuit of profit, it has become possible to operate for the purpose of rationally maintaining society in each country.

In addition, while technological innovations have been made to compensate for women's physical inferiority, women themselves have developed latent superior abilities as descendants of cloned humans and have greatly improved their physical abilities, including their physique. , and eventually began to surpass the physical abilities of men.

You could be reading stolen content. Head to Royal Road for the genuine story.

In religion, the existence and actions of God were not only clearly recognized, but also because it became clear that humans' selfish interpretations would bring about divine punishment, and the unclear and unstable doctrines that had existed up until then were wiped out. , transformed into something that disciplines practical behavior.

As a result, the world's various religions have ended their metaphysical debates, and there are almost no differences in their doctrines.

Although the political systems of each country were rarely changed, the composition of the people and the standards for the survival of society were fundamentally changed, so their operation became completely different from that of the previous world."

“I see.”

After Yuu finished reading, he let out a stupid sound.

I received the cookies and hot tea that Reira had prepared for me.

Eh, it's delicious.

"How was it, Yuu?"

"I get it all right. But isn't this difficult for middle school students?"

There are so many technical terms and socio-economic concepts that I don't think junior high school students would be able to understand. Maybe all middle school students in this world have this level of intelligence?

"That's right. It's too fast for a middle school student to read. But I asked Yuu to read it because I thought you would be able to understand it. The book is probably at the level of a university liberal arts course. It's easier for middle school students to be taught by teachers at school. ”

"I see. I was a little surprised. I think I understood it to a certain extent."

"If it's Yuu, wouldn't it be better to have you know from the beginning instead of teaching you gradually?"

"Yeah, that's right."

That makes sense. I know this because in my previous life, in addition to my studies up to high school level, with the help of a nearby university, I used my spare time to read various specialized books, but a normal middle school student wouldn't understand this.

"After God's punishment, the world behaved wisely. I think it's amazing that they have almost unified the world economy. I now understand that the Previous world and the Current world are completely different cultures. ”

“Yuu, you think of very smart things.”

"Is it weird?"

"No. I think Yuu is very cute like that."

Despite seeing Yuu's unusual intelligence as a child, Reira accepts him completely without hesitation. That gave him a real sense of security.

"I was wondering while watching the Sakisaka family and Reira, are women physically stronger than men?"

``Well, men are naturally stronger, women's physical abilities immediately improve.That's why women play the central role in both physical labor and sports.''

"That's right. I kind of agree with you. Maybe Reira has the physical strength among women?"

Yuu had been watching Reira's everyday behavior, and it was strange to see how she would sometimes display her incredible physical abilities.

“Yes, we first-class male protection officers have been properly trained, so our physical abilities are superior to ordinary people. All first-class male protection officers always maintain a grip strength of 70 kilos, even when they are tired. There is a fairly proper exam to become a first-class male protection officer."

"It's amazing. You always lift me up easily, so I thought I'd gain strength when I grew up, but it turns out that's not the case."

"Even men should be able to improve their physical strength if they train, but I don't think there are any men who work that hard."

I should think that the gender in this world is very different from my previous life.

“Then, for example, sports are dominated by women, right?”

"Yes, that's true. But if it's not a competition but a daily sport, men often do it too. There are a lot of boys exercising here too, right?"

"That's right. I read in a book, for example, how much strength do professional baseball players have?"

It seems that sports similar to those in my previous life are widespread in this world.

"That's right. She's in the class of pitchers who throw the fastest pitches, and she can pitch at least 180 kilometers per hour. Does this give you an idea?"

180 kilometers per hour. In my previous life, I was the fastest person, probably around 160 kilometers per hour. The weights and measures in this world are the same as in my previous life, so even if a man from my previous life came to this world, he would not be able to become a top athlete.

"I feel like I get the image somehow. Women's bodies are strong. I was able to see that women were able to do the heavy lifting as well."

"Next time, let's watch some footage of professional baseball. I think it's interesting because the country of Els is home.

Regarding work, the development of production support technology is more important than the issue of women's physical strength. It is thanks to this that the Sakisaka family is able to farm with just the two of them. Most of the logistics are mechanized and automated, so every farmer can produce with a small number of people.

Once Yuu starts living in the civilian section, you'll see a lot of scenes like that.''

With Reira's explanation, I gradually began to understand the reality of this world. After all, the world is very different from the previous life. It's not just the position of men that is different, but the very nature of society.

In order for me to live in this world, I have to drastically change the common sense of my previous life.
