Live broadcast of Rugong Xingyuan
From the time Mayer's accident until the premiere of Today's Throne, Alyssa only went to school on the day of the memorial service.
There were so many things she needed to deal with. Meeting with the Third Legion, the Insect Fighting Conference, public speeches, and preparations for the Throne premiere today... Mayer's death had punctured the bubble of her peaceful life, dragging her into a world of chaos and war.
The original intention of sending Crown Princess Alyssa to Lugong Xingyuan was to allow the Worm Mother limited public exposure and present a more approachable image. However, now that "Today's Throne" had become a better platform, attending school was no longer a big deal. After all, if she followed Lugong Xingyuan's instructional schedule, it would be far less effective than the rapid and in-depth learning she could achieve with a private tutor at St. Joseph Lugong.
When Gabriel came to ask the Worm Mother whether to stop attending Rugong Xingyuan, Alyssa refused.
Alyssa said, "School isn't all about politics for me. It's also a way for me to gain a deeper understanding of Zerg life. Sitting in the garden all day is not a good way to be a Zerg Queen."
In the future, she wanted to emulate her mother and patrol the Zerg starfields. However, having lost her Zerg mother during a previous patrol, Gabriel would definitely not allow her to leave Saint Hobel's Palace. Alyssa didn't mention it.
"Do we need to reduce some of your private lessons?"
Today's Throne livestream runs from 9:00 AM to 8:00 PM, with a two-hour break after lunch. The public assumed the Worm Queen was resting, but she wasn't. Noon and 8:00 PM to 10:00 PM are Alyssa's private lessons.
Alyssa shook her head: “I have too much to learn, and the private tutoring time cannot be reduced.”
"So, do I need to move you to a slightly higher grade?"
These days, Alyssa studies whenever she has free time, and her progress has far surpassed her current cub class. She can definitely move to a higher grade, and the pressure of private lessons will be relatively less.
Alyssa still shook her head: “I promised the cubs of Miaomiao Class 6 that as long as they are all good kids, I will not change classes.”
"Furthermore, my school life will also be broadcast live on Today's Throne. Everyone can just follow the cameras that follow me and see what the cubs of Lugong Xingyuan are learning. The cubs of Outlying Stars will also be able to learn the knowledge taught by Lugong Xingyuan."
After Alyssa finished speaking, she saw Gabriel bend over and cover his mouth, his eight eyes like washed red agate, looking at her wateryly.
"Your Highness, Alyssa, you are truly a generous, kind, and charismatic leader! The Zerg are truly fortunate to have you!"
"It's right to broadcast your daily life live, because you always consider your people so much, and you deserve the love of every one of them."
"I really hope those naughty cubs can understand your good intentions. If they study half as hard as you do, our Zerg race will have a bright future."
Alyssa was once again overjoyed by Gabriel's super-thick-filtered rainbow fart praise.
The next morning, when the pure white flower-bud-shaped airship appeared on the horizon bathed in the morning sun, the students of Tsumiya Seiin were excited.
"It's Her Majesty Alyssa's airship!"
"Your Majesty, will you come to school today?"
The news quickly spread on the campus forum, and by the time the airship came to a stop at the fountain square, the square was already crowded with students who had rushed there after hearing the news.
There were so many students that the academy security team and the Tiger Guards who had arrived earlier were forced to form a wall of insects to control the situation. Lampposts and fountains began spraying diluted sedatives again.
After the incident where Meyer had become alienated and nearly injured a student, Tsumiya Seiin had not only strengthened security but also tightened student management. The students, now isolated by armed security personnel and Tiger Guards, were somewhat apprehensive.
The students had been watching the livestreams quite a bit these days. The Mother's domineering declaration after the Bug Fight, her public address to the entire crowd, even her farewell to the Tiger Guards... Only then did the students realize they were welcoming not just a special classmate from Lugong Xingyuan, but the supreme leader of the Zerg race, someone who could make countless murderous Tiger Guards willingly lower their proud heads.
This made the students present feel both excited and fearful, and the atmosphere was a bit weird for a moment.
The hydraulic door at the tip of the bud slid open, and four ping-pong-ball-sized miniature cameras flew out first. They fanned out in midair, their operating lights flashing towards the dark door. Then, the familiar black-haired, golden-eyed insect queen, dressed in the uniform of Tsumiya Seiin, appeared at the top of the ladder.
It was still that elusive sweet fragrance, that gentle smile. Alyssa pointed at the four cameras apologetically and said to the students under the bridge, "I'm sorry, everyone. I'm live streaming from Today's Throne. If you don't want to be in the camera, I'll try not to let the cameras capture you."
In an instant, the students felt at ease.
Her Majesty Alyssa treated them as always. Yes, what was there to be afraid of? Her Majesty was always so gentle and tolerant, kind and empathetic, always considering their needs, big and small. She would grant peace to Mayer, who had attacked her, and would also consider that the students might not want to be on camera.
Sean in the front row shouted, "Your Majesty Alyssa! I am willing to be in the camera! I am willing to let all the Zerg in the galaxy witness my loyalty and love for you!"
The sound was like a hammer hitting a drum, instantly igniting the atmosphere. The students on the scene expressed their willingness to be photographed, raising their hands enthusiastically in response to the insect mother on the ladder. The camera then turned and took another aerial shot of the students.
The children of these high-ranking families seemed to have forgotten their fathers, their patriarchs. After the premiere of "Today's Throne," they denounced it as a plaything aimed at currying favor with the lower-ranking Zerg. They saw it as a sign that the current Zerg Queens had neglected their duties by lacking a systematic aristocratic education, and as irrefutable proof that the Saint Joseph Palace was playing house with the Zerg Queens, obsessed with money. They were certain the public's enthusiasm for this app wouldn't last more than a month. After a month, the Zerg Queens would realize the folly of exposing their entire lives to the public, and the heavy burden of trying to meet every public expectation.
But at this moment, the heads of the high-ranking families suddenly discovered that their promising children who were studying at Rugong Xingyuan and were carefully trained by their families were waving enthusiastically at the camera in the live broadcast of Today's Throne.
They seemed to be afraid that the camera would ignore them, so when the camera was looking at them, they would wave their hands and shake their tentacles desperately, and smile so hard that their mouthparts were exposed.
The barrage is still following up and making fun of it in real time:
[That cicada-like idiot laughed so loudly, he was practically leading the entire audience in singing.]
You can tell they're really happy.
"I really envy the students of Tsumiya Hoshiin who can go to school with Her Majesty Arisa."
[I clicked on the official website for Tsumiya Seiin enrollment again. Damn it, when will Tsumiya Seiin actually start enrolling?]
[Actually, they recruit students year-round, but you have to pass their entrance exams... However, the exams usually cover topics that can only be learned at Tsukumi-no-Seiin. Therefore, if a family member hasn't studied at Tsukumi-no-Seiin before, it's going to be incredibly difficult to get in.]
If you have the money, you can hire a retired teacher from Rugong Xingyuan for private lessons, but you know the price. And the teacher comes from a high-class family, so they're rarely outside the fifth star chain. So, if you don't live within the first five star chains, forget it.
Alyssa said goodbye to the enthusiastic students and returned to her familiar Miaomiao Class 6, where she received a warm welcome from her classmates as usual.
"Your Highness Alyssa! You haven't come to school for a long time! I miss you so much!"
Alyssa missed the cubs, too. No matter the era or race, interacting with them was always easier. Miaomiao's class six study life was a rare haven in her recent, almost taut, life.
"Your Highness Alyssa, why didn't your short, pretty boy study partner come?"
Seville, who was also watching the live broadcast: "..."
Later he would ask the director to keep an eye on this sharp-tongued kid and put any ugly photos into the replay.
Alyssa tapped the tip of the cub’s nose and said, “You can’t give other bugs such rude nicknames. We are all classmates and we should get along well with each other.”
The insect mother's soft and fragrant fingertips made the cub's face flush red.
[Hilarious! Her Majesty Alyssa isn't even as tall as this cub's shoulders. She has to stand on tiptoe to touch his nose. It's like a kitten training a wolfhound.]
"Ah, I'm fine. My bad morning was healed by Her Majesty Elisa."
Alyssa greeted the cubs one by one, and suddenly found a strange face among the cubs.
A bug that I have never seen before, but looks a little familiar.
“Who…are you?” Alyssa asked uncertainly.
The insect instantly showed a hurt expression, and tears filled his eyes.
The cubs burst into laughter: "Your Majesty Alyssa! He is Mumu!"
"Hahahahaha, Her Majesty Alyssa didn't recognize Mumu!"
Alyssa was very shocked: “Are you Mumu?”
In her mind, Mumu was supposed to be a round-headed, smooth-skinned youngster, not too tall, with no discernible gender. But the insect before her had a long face, a thick neck, and even scaly, mimicking skin. It was significantly taller than Mumu, a stark departure from her image.
But the way he teared up when he was wronged really had some of Mumu's demeanor. After not coming to school for 20 days, how could Mumu have changed so much?
"Your Majesty Alyssa, Mumu's gender has differentiated. He is now a male insect." The cubs in the class explained to Alyssa in a flurry.
"Differentiation?"
"Yes, wasn't he a hermaphrodite before? After that attack, he differentiated and became a male insect."
Alyssa then remembered that during the attack, it was thanks to Mumu that she was saved from being smashed into a pile of mud. Later, it was also because Mumu had always protected her tightly in his shell that she was not splashed by the rubble and blood.
"I haven't thanked you yet." Alyssa said to Mumu with a smile, "Thank you, Mumu, you saved me."
Mumu's face flushed red. It was during that attack that he was stimulated by Alyssa's pheromones and wanted to differentiate into a male insect. At this moment, he was filled with an intense joy and impulse. This impulse made his mind run wild. In front of the whole class and the live broadcast camera, he said to Alyssa:
"Your Majesty Alyssa, I want to be your husband!"
