Chapter 13 A moment of impulsiveness almost exposed him.
"I wasn't on the list of those sent by the military to exterminate the star beasts this time?"
Claire touched her nose a little awkwardly, "That's because everyone heard you registered your marriage yesterday, and they all thought you might..."
They can't come back.
After all, most military females and males rarely return to the military headquarters after being registered.
Male insects do not like their females to be out of their control.
In addition, most female soldiers marry male insects in order to soothe their broken mental state.
The spiritual energy provided by the male insect is enough to keep the female alive, let alone repair her.
Therefore, all of them assumed that Letekar might not be able to return to the military.
Ludkar remained noncommittal.
If he hadn't met this powerful leader, he might have really left the military.
I wonder what his powerful lord is doing.
Seeing that Letkell didn't speak again, Claire cautiously asked, "How about... you go to the medical check-up center too?"
Lutecal snapped out of his reverie, glanced at Claire, and finally nodded.
Meanwhile, Tan Chi, whom Letekar was eyeing, had already arrived at the palace in his flying vehicle.
To prevent the Insect King from realizing that he was not the original owner of this body through his current behavior, Letekar quickly went through all his memories related to the Insect King.
He remembered every detail of the two insects' interactions, and he even learned most of the original owner's habitual actions and habits.
Fortunately, the original owner was born into the royal family, and her daily needs were taken care of by special robotic insects and sub-females.
Even if the Insect King dotes on his son, he won't revolve around him every day.
Therefore, what he has learned is enough to deal with the Insect King.
The Insect Queen is a female born into the military and has only two offspring.
Besides the male insect Tan Chi, the insect king's first child was also a female insect, who is now a general in the First Army of the Empire.
If nothing unexpected happens in the future, Tan Chi, the eldest brother, will be the future Insect Emperor of the Empire.
Unfortunately, Michele's unexpected turn of events occurred.
After Michael takes down a few of his devoted admirers, his older brother will kill him in a mental breakdown.
Why?
Because his elder brother's lord was also one of Michele's sycophants.
Fortunately, the empire only has an age requirement for male insects.
His older brother, who is a year older than her and is a female soldier, has not yet married Michelle's sycophant.
Tan Chi thought about the time and estimated that it would be this year. His elder brother's mental state also seemed to be in a bad state.
This is indeed a bit tricky.
"Tan Chi, what brings you here to see the female father today? Don't tell me you want to cancel the registration; the laws of the Empire are not to be trifled with."
The female soldier sitting opposite Tan Chi had a serious expression, clearly showing her dislike for her younger brother.
Tan Chi opened his mouth, "I..."
“Letekar is a genius of the First Military Department, more than a match for you, an A-level male insect. You'd better not have any bad ideas.”
Before Tan Chi could even speak, the military woman launched into another tirade.
Tan Chi was shocked to hear his older brother praising his wife!
Sure enough, my older brother had pretty good taste before he got married.
Just because he spoke up for his wife, he has to help him secure his throne.
As Tan Chi pondered how to begin, a dignified voice rang out, "Eli, shut up!"
Tan Chi subconsciously looked in the direction of the sound and saw a tall, middle-aged figure.
His noble attire, resembling a military uniform, and the fact that his features bore a striking resemblance to his elder brother Eli, gave him an air of natural nobility.
Yet his decisive and ruthless aura carried an undeniable pressure.
Tan Chi could clearly sense that the other person was angry, but not at him.
The Insect King loved his two offspring very much.
But he was even harsher on Eli.
Because Eli is the future Insect Emperor, while Tan Chi... is naturally a prince who just loafs around and waits to die.
When Eli met the Insect King, he bowed respectfully, clearly the kind of insect that was rigid and principled.
Tan Chi also bowed to the Insect Emperor, and then sat back down.
The Insect King glanced at the two insects, then sat down in the seat of honor.
"Tell me, what just happened?"
"Father, just now..."
"I was just joking around with my older brother," Tan Chi said, taking over the conversation and smoothing things over.
Although he and Eli were brothers, male insects received more preferential treatment than female insects in the empire.
Eli's comment, "More than enough for an A-grade male like you," if investigated further, could lead to him being sent directly to the Male Insect Protection Association.
Of course, he was a prince and had some privileges, but Rétcal, who was implicated, was made a scapegoat.
The Insect King stopped Eli because he knew the outcome might be like this.
He knew how a male insect would torment its female after being humiliated.
Even if the child is his, he still has to be careful.
Unexpectedly, Tan Chi would take the initiative to exonerate Eli, and the two insects looked at him strangely almost simultaneously.
Oh no, I almost gave myself away in a moment of impulsiveness.
However, he has many areas to improve, so it's not a big problem.
Tan Chi coughed lightly and pretended to be a little uncomfortable, scratching his knee. This was a gesture the original owner would make when he was shy.
Of course... that was when he was still a bug cub.
“I, I’m not here to cancel my registration, and besides… Letekar is not bad, and as a lord, I can’t just give him my favor for a while.”
Hearing Tan Chi deliberately change the subject, the two insects exchanged a knowing glance.
This male insect, who hadn't eaten meat in almost 25 years, was directly taken by Letekar?
As expected, Letekar is indeed a genius of the First Army. He has solid textbook knowledge and amazing practical experience!
Eli narrowed his eyes, thinking that his bastard brother must have some faults to be able to be controlled by Letekar.
It seems I'll have to have a good chat with him when he goes to the military headquarters and ask for some advice.
The Insect King seemed quite satisfied with the result, and his gaze toward Tan Chi became even more loving.
Although he didn't have much affection for male insects, he still had a soft spot for his own offspring.
"Since you are satisfied with this female ruler, what brings you to the palace today?"
Remembering his purpose, Tan Chi spoke again, "Michele of the Lanetta family..."
"Report—Your Excellency the Insect King, a male insect from the Lanetta family has come to visit."
Before Tan Chi could finish speaking, a voice came from the doorway announcing his arrival.
The Insect King glanced at Tan Chi, then his gaze fell on the sub-female who had been summoned. He waved his hand and said, "Let Lord Laneta in."
He had heard some of what happened yesterday between the two female insects in Lanetta's house and the male insect in his house.
Some insects poisoned his larvae and even climbed onto his bed.
Regardless of which female insect in the Lanetta family did this, the Lanetta family cannot escape responsibility.
I wonder what the male insect from the Lanetta family is here to do at the palace.
