Chapter 60 He was born to be…
Although Ai Ying did not go to the Human Empire in person, she kept an eye on the public trials on the Star Network.
She sat in her chair, her expression unusually solemn.
Looking at the body on the judgment stand, which was even thinner than it had been on Planet Carlo, she clenched her hands tightly.
No wonder she has never talked about her past:
Such a heavy past... Even if she knew back then, there was nothing she could do.
Ai Ying looked at Charlotte's nominal father, and for the first time, murderous intent appeared in her eyes.
Seeing that, under Isaiah's intimidation, the human empire released Charlotte without charge and also punished Dirk as he deserved, she finally loosened her clenched hands.
Now, Charlotte has become a duke, inheriting the power and lands of the previous duke.
Given the Zerg's attention to this matter, the Empire would never dare to do anything to Charlotte in secret.
She could finally live safely in the human empire after avenging herself.
Ai Ying looked at the insects playing happily in the playground outside the energy window and gently raised the corners of her lips:
That's good enough.
Although they haven't met, they are both living well and safely on their own planets.
This was the best outcome she could imagine.
As Fedlock looked at the smile on Wang's lips, he felt his own insect core throbbing noticeably.
Realizing that Wang was happy, he couldn't help but smile as well.
His dark purple pupils were filled with unwavering devotion and dependence.
It's unclear when it started, but the king's feelings became more important than anything else.
It was not because of the lord's duty, nor because of the memory and inheritance of bloodlines.
It's just because he wanted to...
He wanted to see what Wang Kaixin looked like.
Horace, who was standing next to Fidelock, also noticed the king's happiness.
Unlike Fedorock and Savile, he wasn't just a fool who blindly followed along and had fun.
As an insect with the most beautiful scales!
His task was to make the king appreciate his beauty, and then use his beauty to make the king feel better!
Thinking of this, Horace, enduring the angry stares of all the insects, strained his head and pretended to 'accidentally' inch closer to the king.
Once Isaiah confirmed that Charlotte was safe and sound, he didn't want to waste a second and rushed back to Merton immediately.
He wanted to see the king as soon as possible.
As soon as Isaiah entered the study of the insect hive, he saw Horace, who was almost touching the king.
The smile in his eyes froze for a moment: He knew it!
That cunning little rascal Horace will definitely take advantage of his absence to get close to the king and seduce him!
What else does he have to boast about besides those few pitiful scales?!
Isaiah took a deep breath and quickly calmed himself down:
Horace is no match for him!
He is the insect that the king values!
Horace, who used his beauty to seduce the king, could never compare to him, who was valued by the king!
Seeing Horace still shamelessly crowding towards the king, Isaiah quickly joined him.
He knew what the king was interested in, so he spoke up immediately, using the matter of the human empire to attract the king's attention.
"Your Majesty, the matter concerning the Human Empire has been resolved peacefully."
"The human emperor has no doubts about the relationship between the Zerg and your friend. Your friend has now returned to his territory and is perfectly safe."
"She asked me to send her regards to you, and wish you eternal peace, health, and freedom."
Upon hearing Isaiah's words, Ai Ying's fingers involuntarily curled up slightly.
'May you be safe, healthy, and forever free.'
She knew what those eight words meant.
In Charlotte's eyes, she was still in the dangerous vortex of the Zerg.
She hoped she could escape danger and live a free and peaceful life.
She will.
She has always done what she wanted to do.
As for freedom—
When she decided to stay with the Zerg, the Zerg became synonymous with the freedom she needed.
Ai Ying blinked, concealing all her emotions.
She looked at Isaiah, who appeared travel-worn, and spoke gently:
"Isaiah, you've had a tough time lately."
"Get some rest for the next few days."
Upon hearing the king's voice, Isaiah's amber eyes lit up instantly, and countless emotions surged within his insect core.
Wang... is praising him!
Wang...is concerned about him!
Even though he already knew how good and gentle the king was, he still couldn't control his emotions every time the king looked at him with a smile.
With each extra second he spends with the King, the devotion and love for the King within his insect core grows stronger.
Isaiah's voice was slightly hoarse:
“It’s not hard work, it’s what Isaiah should do.”
Fiedlock has transformed from a silent bug into a petty bug who now hates all bugs except himself appearing around the king.
Upon seeing the concern the king showed for Isaiah, his dark purple pupils flickered slightly.
He cautiously approached the king, and the black energy tentatively stirred a strand of the king's hair.
Ai Ying felt a tickle from Fiedlock's movements and turned to look at him helplessly:
"What's wrong, Fiedlock?"
Fidelock was the first lord insect to appear beside her; he was someone she could see whenever she turned around.
He wouldn't try to guess what she was thinking, nor would he question any of her actions.
He will always stand behind her and support all her decisions.
From the very beginning until now, it has always been this way.
Therefore, she always unconsciously showed some favoritism towards him.
Under the king's gaze, the tips of Fidelock's ears involuntarily flushed red.
But he couldn't bear to avoid the king's gaze, so he could only blush and whisper:
"king……"
Upon witnessing this scene, Savile, who had been standing to the side, could no longer contain himself.
He always knew that he was not favored by the king and was not valued by him.
But the more he knew, the more distressed he became.
Every time he saw the king's doting affection for Fidelock, his insect core felt like it was being cut by a knife, the pain making it hard for him to breathe.
Saviel mustered his courage and approached the king for the first time, ostensibly to prepare food for him, but in reality, he was openly getting close to him.
He was closer to the king than Fedorok was.
Feeling the king's presence so close, his aching worm core finally calmed down, and a slight smile appeared on his lips.
In an instant, Ai Ying was completely surrounded by four Lord Insects.
Some insects would occasionally use their black energy to attract her attention.
Some insects, under the guise of changing her food, stayed by her side without moving.
Some insects stood there, but the wind kept blowing its scent and amber-brown hair toward her.
Some insects, fearing she wouldn't see clearly, deliberately made the scales on the sides of their faces shimmer, the light reflecting off her body.
Compared to the four lord insects, Norman, standing alone in the corner, became particularly conspicuous.
Norman watched the king interact with the other lord insects, a hint of envy in his lake-green eyes.
However, as the last insect to appear beside the king, and as an insect that was constantly worried about upsetting the king, he was still a problem.
He dared not go near the king, fearing that his presence would disturb him.
He looked down at the bright red mark in front of his insect core. Although the insect core tasted sour, he felt more satisfied.
It's enough that he's recognized by the king and can stay by his side.
Ai Ying never ignores any insect around her.
She glanced around at the surrounding lord insects, her gaze finally settling on Norman, who was sitting in the corner with his head down.
Sensing the subtle unease and envy emanating from his insect core, she beckoned to him and called out to him with a smile:
"Norman, come here."
Norman suddenly looked up.
He cautiously looked at the king, and seeing the faint smile in the king's eyes, he could no longer resist the desire to get closer to the king, and flashed to the king's side.
Ai Ying gently and patiently soothed each insect.
She used her mental powers to ruffle Fedorok's hair, patted Savile on the shoulder, and took a bite of the food he had prepared.
Then she chuckled and praised Horace's scales on his cheek, and then smiled and told Isaiah, who had been busy for so many days, to get some rest.
Finally, she looked at Norman with a smile and encouraged him to speak out about his deepest thoughts.
She could sense that the insects all wanted her attention.
In her view, this was a perfectly normal thing.
Her insects don't need to hide their thoughts, nor do they need to live cautiously or fearfully.
As a Gu master, she has an obligation to ensure that the insects she contracts live peacefully and happily.
Finally, after being comforted by the king, each insect looked satisfied and left the study with light steps.
In the brains of each of the insects, their yearning for the king seemed to have undergone a slight change.
They don't understand what those changes are.
All they knew was that they wanted to be watched by the king, touched by the king, and… stroked by the king.
In the hive, each lord insect has its own room to live in.
Before going to his room to rest, Fiedlock and Isaiah made eye contact.
Although they loathed any lord insects other than themselves who appeared around the king, they also knew that they couldn't do anything to each other.
What the king detested most was the infighting among the insects.
Isaiah spoke first:
"There are still two insects that haven't appeared."
Based on the King's actions in the Dark Rock Clan some time ago, news of the King's birth should have already reached the ears of those two insects.
They don't need to worry about the insect that always reacts seven or eight days slower.
Even if the insect reacted and appeared beside the king, its slow reaction wouldn't warrant their attention.
But the other insect...
Fidelock and Isaiah uttered the name almost simultaneously, their voices icy:
"Alfred".
*
As long as the core of the insect is not damaged, each insect has a strong regenerative ability.
Especially the Overlord Zerg, whose energy is powerful enough to roam the stars.
Alfred walked out of the insect bone cave step by step.
The nearly one hundred white bones behind him were the bones of insects that he had dug out of his own body piece by piece over the past three hundred years to maintain his sanity.
Only such pain could have allowed him to persevere through the despair of not having Wang Anfu until now.
With each step he took, the deep wound on his shoulder blade, which revealed the bone of the insect, healed a little more.
By the time he appeared before the subordinate insects, his injuries had completely healed, leaving only faint marks etched on his honey-colored dark brown skin.
His deep black hair curled down to his waist, and his gray-brown pupils were full of primal wildness.
His gaze swept over every inch of the land in front of him, finally settling on the vassal insects in front of him.
Upon seeing the lord appear, the insect, for the first time, no longer showed its usual fear of him. It stumbled forward a few steps, its voice anxious:
"My lord!"
"The king has appeared!!"
No insect can resist the temptation of the 'King'.
If it weren't for the lord's restrictions, he would have had no way to leave this place and would have abandoned the lord to go find the king long ago.
Alfred was stunned when he heard what the subordinate insect said.
He thought he had misheard.
While digging out the bones, he had countless such fantasies in his mind.
He imagined that he received the king's message from any place, from the mouth of any insect.
But after the pain of having his bones dug out subsided, there were no other insects around him, and even less... a king.
All he could see were the pieces of his own insect bones piled up in the cave.
After a few seconds, Alfred finally realized that what he had just heard was not a hallucination.
He reached out and gripped the throat of the insect in front of him, slowly tightening his grip. His voice was fierce, yet trembled almost imperceptibly.
Do you know what the consequences will be if you lie to me?
"I dare not deceive you, my lord," the insect said with difficulty. "Your Majesty, it has truly appeared."
"Many insects sensed the king's presence."
Alfred's hand suddenly loosened.
His chest heaved, his gray-brown pupils contracted tightly, and it took him a while to recover before he was finally able to speak.
He asked in a low voice:
"Where is the king now?"
The insect, kneeling on the ground, spoke with barely suppressed excitement:
"Based on the information gathered."
"Your Majesty, we are currently on Merton Star."
Upon hearing this, Alfred turned around without thinking and headed towards the Insect Bone Cave.
As the insect watched the lord's departing figure, which stirred up a gust of wind, it was about to remind him that he was going the wrong way.
Then he saw the lord, holding several smooth and shiny insect bones, disappear in a flash.
As Alfred carefully selected the insect bones and put them on as decoration, he glanced down at the clothes he was wearing.
His clothes had been torn to shreds in the chaos and pain of the insect bone cave, leaving only enough to barely cover his body.
Looking at his body, which was mostly covered, his grayish-brown pupils were full of disdain:
With everything so tightly concealed, what can the king possibly see?!
His body belongs to the king, so naturally the king must be able to see it clearly!
With a slight effort of his right hand, he tore off the already tattered clothes from his upper body.
Looking at his bare upper body, he casually tugged at his lower body clothing before nodding in satisfaction.
Every lord insect has the desire to get close to the king and give everything for him.
Alfred's desire was just a little clearer than the other insects'.
He longed to be possessed by the king, to be devoured whole by the king.
Alfred gazed at Merton, which was so close at hand, his gray-brown eyes filled with obsession and fanaticism:
He was born to be slept with by the king!
Inside the insect nest.
Fiedlock was the first to detect the presence of the Lord Insects that had intruded into Merton.
He realized it instantly:
The only insect that can get here now is the Lord Insect, Alfred.
Realizing this, his dark purple pupils deepened slightly.
The other insects quickly sensed the presence of this unfamiliar aura, and each of them looked extremely wary.
Although there is little direct contact between the lord insects.
However, they had all vaguely heard about Alfred's personality.
Thinking of those rumors, all the insects looked on high alert:
They absolutely cannot underestimate this insect!
Ai Ying also sensed the unfamiliar aura of the Lord Insects around her.
She has now contracted with five Lord Insects, and her Gu techniques are comparable to those of two Lord Insects.
She no longer panicked at the appearance of the strange lord insects.
Ai Ying looked up at the door of the study.
Each Lord Bug has a different personality.
Fiedlock is silent loyalty, Savile is calm observation, Isaiah is emotional tenderness, Horace is bright pride, and Norman is sorrowful restraint.
What kind of personality will this new lord insect have?
Just as Ai Ying was looking ahead with a hint of curiosity, a figure suddenly entered her field of vision.
The new insect has honey-colored skin that is completely different from the other insects.
His long, wavy black hair blended perfectly with his dark brown skin, and the stark white accessories around his ears, exuding a chilling aura, added a touch of sophistication to his beauty.
Beneath his deep-set brow bone were a pair of gray-brown eyes, filled with the wildness of the Zerg race.
Further down, there is no cover whatsoever, and the upper body is completely exposed.
Full pectoral muscles that rise and fall with each breath, and eight-pack abs that are not exaggerated but are exceptionally eye-catching.
The lean yet powerful waist and abdomen below the abdominal muscles were simply covered by the clothes, revealing a slight indentation below the waist and the faintly visible powerful thighs.
It's about revealing just the right amount of skin, without being too revealing.
Such a primal and powerful beauty sends a shiver down one's spine upon seeing it.
Ai Ying was seeing the Wild Insect dressed so...revealingly for the first time, and she didn't react for a moment, blinking her eyes in a slightly stunned state.
She didn't react, but the other insects were so angry at Alfred's clothes that their hair was practically standing on end.
Saville suddenly gripped the cup he was holding tightly, his deep blue eyes so cold they seemed to freeze everything around him.
Isaiah narrowed his eyes, all traces of a smile vanishing from them, and even the wind around him seemed to grow sharper.
Horace was so enraged that flames erupted from his body, and he deeply despised Alfred's attire in his insect brain:
He actually dressed like that to seduce the king, what a wicked worm!
They don't even have clothes, they're poor and shameless scoundrels!
It's so ugly! So ugly! So ugly!!
Wang definitely wouldn't like him! Definitely not!!
He's the most handsome, the king's favorite insect!!!
Norman stood in the corner. He glanced at Alfred, his fingertips twitched, and finally he silently lowered his head.
He dislikes ostentatious insects...
No, it should be that he dislikes ostentatious insects that could attract the king's attention.
Even the most reserved insect will feel jealous.
Knowing that the king would dislike it, he buried all his jealousy deep within the insect's core.
Then keep telling yourself: It's already good enough.
Being able to stay by Wang's side is already very, very good.
Alfred completely ignored the angry stares from the other insects.
The moment he entered the insect hive, nothing but the king could attract his attention.
His gray-brown eyes stared unblinkingly at the figure in front of him.
At that moment, he suddenly realized:
Black is the most beautiful color in the world.
The king before him was the most beautiful, the most powerful, and the most captivating being in the galaxy.
His worm-core brain was filled only with excitement and joy that was almost beyond his limits:
king!
He finally found the king!
Feeling the king's gaze, Alfred finally snapped out of his excitement.
He knelt on one knee, and the clothes that barely covered his lower body revealed his lean and powerful thighs.
He placed one hand over the insect core and bowed his head respectfully.
His voice carried a hint of wildness, but even more so, it was filled with piety and excitement:
"Alfred greets the King."
Hearing his voice, Ai Ying finally came to her senses.
With just a quick glance, she saw Alfred's arm, which was resting on his chest, rising and falling with his breath.
Although his arms were strong, they couldn't really cover anything.
She could clearly see the slight bulge peeking out from under his arm...
Seeing this, Ai Ying's body stiffened almost imperceptibly; she couldn't open her eyes properly, nor could she close them properly.
After the powerful visual impact, she felt a sense of awkward disorientation for the first time.
Upon seeing Alfred, Fidelock instinctively looked at the King.
He was wary of other insects, but paid no attention to them.
Only the king's emotions can cause his emotions to change.
Seeing the momentary daze on Wang's face as he looked at Alfred, the jealousy within his insect core belatedly surged up.
Earlier on, he would have simply stood there, silently processing his jealousy.
However, as the king repeatedly showed his favoritism towards him, and as the king looked at him tenderly time and time again, he was finally spoiled by the king.
He extended his black energy and carefully touched the tip of the king's hair.
Ai Ying felt the light, almost imperceptible touch on the end of her hair. Her expression didn't change, but she breathed a sigh of relief.
The new lord insect's attire was indeed a bit beyond her comprehension...
She quickly averted her gaze from Alfred, then looked at Fiedlock, her voice lacking the anger of being disturbed, but instead carrying a hint of doting:
"What's wrong?"
Upon hearing the king's voice, Alfred looked up in surprise.
He could sense the movement of Fidelock's energy.
He had assumed that Fedrock would be cruelly punished by the king for his overstepping his bounds, perhaps even thrown out of the hive and forbidden from ever appearing again.
But no.
The king's voice was gentler than he had ever heard in his bloodline memory.
It was like the most beautiful melody in the world, making him want to listen to more.
Alfred knelt on the spot, his gray-brown eyes staring blankly at the scene before him.
He saw the king slightly raise the corners of his lips as he looked at Fedorok.
He saw Wang using his energy to gently soothe Horace, who was constantly spewing out flames.
He saw...
He could sense the peace and happiness emanating from the depths of these lord insects' cores.
Each of them firmly believed that the king would not harm them.
Alfred listened to the merrily hissing of the lower insects outside the hive and slowly blinked:
His bloodline memories had never told him that the king would be like this.
Such gentleness and beauty.
This place is like a wonderful paradise exclusively for the Zerg.
He looked at the black-haired, black-eyed figure before him, his insect core filled with the purest joy:
This is the newly born King of the Zerg...
This is his king.
Alfred felt the pulsation of the insect core; after a moment of stunned silence, his joy transformed into a purer longing:
He likes this kind of king!
He wanted the king to sleep with him even more!
To be possessed by such a king, he could die without regret!
