Chapter 2: Becoming the King of the Sea
Just yesterday, after I learned that my brother was live streaming in the Star Pirates' Nest, I felt that nothing could defeat me. There shouldn't be any major conspiracies or tricks in this world. Even if there are, they must be things that can be easily resolved according to the will of the world.
There is no need for brain-stimulating conspiracies or intrigues in group pet stories. All my protagonist's younger brother needs to do is pout, and a group of big guys will solve the problem for him.
Thinking of this, I feel relieved.
After all, my brother told me that he has been live streaming for six months.
Even if you are a corporate slave, you will have passed the probation period after working for six months.
"Brother, do you want to live broadcast with me? Everyone I met on Starnet is very nice!" Angel shook the light brain at me, and I shook my head decisively.
A group pet article only needs one group pet. As someone who has the same face as my younger brother, I obviously shouldn't take away too much of the love that others have for my younger brother.
After watching my brother finish his one-hour live broadcast and secretly show me the income from the live broadcast, I began to think about the fact that I was living off my brother.
After all, we can't stay in the pirates' nest forever. My younger brother will definitely have a broader life. Thinking of our noble father whose name is unknown, and the world setting that I know about, the ordinary life that my younger brother imagines will definitely not appear in his life.
Oh, maybe my brother will have a lot of suitors.
This is a BL novel!!!
How come it took me three years to think of this?
Good news, I am not the favorite of the BL literature group.
Bad news, I share the same face with the group pet.
————————————
"Isn't Alger a little too quiet?" Jamila was a little worried. Three years had passed since they picked up the lovely twin brothers. The two brothers, raised in the same environment, had very different personalities.
The elder brother Alger was not very talkative and preferred to sit aside and daydream quietly. He was polite to everyone but seemed distant. At first, Jamila even thought that Alger had a speech impediment, but after several examinations by the ship's doctor, Lin, she discovered that it was not the case.
Alger really didn't want to talk to anyone, and was even a little too mature.
It seemed that he only had eyes for his younger brother Ingres.
"Lin said that Alger might have some signs of autism because of his precocious intelligence..." Will has softened a lot in the past three years. In Jamila's words, he has become more like a husband.
"Autism seems to be a kind of genius disease. This child might be very suitable to be my successor." Will touched his stubbled chin.
"And I always have a feeling that Alger knows our identities." He said it with certainty. Jamila didn't know where her captain got this feeling from, but thinking about the life and death experiences over the years, the captain's intuition was indeed very accurate.
but……
"Captain, we've been retired for two years."
"But that's only temporary. The Empire has still issued a wanted warrant for us, and they should be discovering our current base soon."
Will pushed his long hair back.
"Jamila, has the peaceful and stable life made you lose your sense of crisis? This starry sea won't give you the chance to regret. We must always return."
"Angel isn't suited to the life of a pirate, but Alger is different. He's a freak just like us."
"I need a successor."
Jamila looked at the leader and did not deny what his leader said.
But isn't this a bit too cruel for those two children?
——————————
I had no idea yet that my destiny had taken a strange turn, and I was doing some children's entertainment with my brother.
Refers to playing in the mud.
I didn’t know I was so patient with children. This is probably the golden finger of being the group’s favorite.
Ingres and I played with mud very seriously. Although I had added enough water, the things I made still looked more like objects than Ingres - after all, I am an adult at heart, and you can't expect an adult to have the mentality of a real child.
So it became a competition between Ingres and himself.
Honestly, it's cute.
I glanced at the adults standing in the distance. I had no idea what these pirates who had retired early were doing every day, but I knew that Angel liked them very much.
My younger brother has no idea about his rough experiences and background, he thinks he is very happy.
In the mouth of our adoptive father, we are his biological sons. Probably because we all have white hair, my younger brother has no doubt about this. As for the question of why we don't have a mother, I won't ask, and my younger brother won't think about it. The few times he asked, the subject would be changed, so this matter is not too important to my younger brother.
He is too young.
Just after it got dark, Jamila walked towards us. It was time to have dinner, but I always felt that there was something wrong with the way Jamila looked at me.
There are six permanent residents in our "home".
Our adoptive father Will, the head of the family, is a mecha repairman in public, but his real identity is the leader of the "Nebula" pirate group. Before I was two years old, I always respected him. Later, I found out that he was not an adult worthy of respect at all. All his maturity was pretended. He was just a childish and vengeful adult.
Jamila, Will's deputy, is also a mecha repairman and the deputy leader of "Nebula". He is like a male mother. He was the one who discovered me and my brother at the beginning, and he also gave us our names. To be honest, many times I feel that he is more like our biological father.
Lin is a doctor and also the ship's doctor of the Star Pirates. He is my favorite person because he has that familiar corporate vibe. He can be said to be one of the few normal people around me... I can't set such a flag.
Jiaerqi is a chef and also a good gun operator. I saw him cleaning his gun in the kitchen, and he seemed to have noticed me.
There are two other uncles whose names I don’t know. They are all clerks in the repair shop opened by Will. Jamila, Lin and Jiaerqi are all Will’s brothers.
But I know that there are far more people in this pirate group. I was curious about where the others were, but curiosity killed the cat, so I quickly gave up the idea.
Sometimes strangers come to my house. I don’t know if they are real customers or members of the pirate group, but at least I have no ill intentions towards them.
But today is different.
A lot of people came to our house today. My brother and I were sitting in the high chairs and were being stared at by this group of people. My brother was a little scared.
But I don't know why more people focus on me.
Why don't you focus on the group's favorite protagonist? Are you seeing things wrong? ? ?
"Okay, you scared my son!"
Everyone looked away.
I suddenly realized that Will was a real pirate leader, not just a stupid dad.
"Brother, Dad is so handsome!" Angel said to me in a voice that he thought was very low, but everyone present could hear it clearly. Looking at his shining eyes, I felt like I was struck.
cute.
…and it seems others feel the same way.
My attention was immediately drawn away.
My younger brother is still the group’s favorite.
My brother and I took turns observing each other during the meal. Fortunately, my brother was a child and couldn't notice it, and I was a mature adult so I didn't care.
Which office worker has not been observed and evaluated?
I knew it was impossible for me to stay with my beloved brother forever, but I didn't expect this day to come so soon.
The very next day after that meal, I was taken away by my adoptive father - along with those space pirates.
Stupid dad finally realized that I was a stumbling block on my brother's path to becoming the group's favorite, so he planned to get rid of me, right? ??? ???
[Beep beep, nice complaint! System battery 80%, open more permissions——
Congratulations to the host for finding the target of this world's mission. Now let's officially announce it~]
[This world is the main world of "Star Ocean for You",
Mission objectives:
As the protagonist of the group pet article, Angel is a lovable angel who cannot have any stains or flaws.
But the world is not a fairy tale. Where there is light, there will be darkness. A world with only light is destined to collapse. Please support the rationality of the world by complaining.
He is your brother, your half, your light.
So, become dark.
Mission Reward: Issued at the end of this world
Please complete the system tasks carefully! 】
…
…………
Are you okay, system?! What do you mean by using complaints to prop up the world's rationality? Is there any connection between the two?
And what's that embarrassing, chuuni declaration at the end?
What does this have to do with my complaints?
Isn't this just a roundabout way of asking me to save the world?
You said before that I am not the savior, have you forgotten!!!
Don't use the excuse of complaining to add things that I can't do!
[Ding ding ding, host, this is what was written in our original regulations~
Now I can show you our binding terms again~】
…
I was wrong. I looked at the small words written in the very last corner of my mind that I had to use a magnifying glass to see.
"When necessary, we need to support the rationality of the world~"
If this isn’t a scam, then what is!
I will immediately download the anti-fraud app and report your [complaint system].
My life and some of my good qualities have been ruined in your hands, and you are not even willing to cheat me of the world.
[The host's situation isn't as miserable as you think. You don't need to save the world, nor do you need to destroy it. You just need to make sure the protagonist remains the group's favorite.]
[You also know that some things are unreasonable, you just need to make them reasonable~]
You liar, I won't believe anything you say anymore.
…
But what should I do now that I am separated from my brother?
I don’t even know if I’m going to die…
[Beep, beep, host, don't worry. According to the system's calculations, you'll be able to reunite with the protagonist about twelve years from now, when the story officially begins. Before that, you'll be living well, hehe.]
…
So what am I going to do now?
【…Become the King of the Sea.】
What??
【Become the King of the Sea.】
…
It can't be what I think, right?
I opened my eyes and looked at Will next to me.
"Dad, where's my brother?"
"Alger is awake?" Will reached out and picked me up. I looked at the white-haired man who had taken off his disguise, feeling a little hopeless. We were obviously on a starship now, surrounded by the vast universe. We couldn't even see the shadow of the planet we used to live on.
"As an older brother, you should protect your younger brother, right?"
"There are bad guys trying to bully my younger brother, so Dad is taking you to inherit the family business and protect him. I'm sure Alger can do a good job."
…
You bastard dad, what kind of family business do we have?
Inheriting the family business means I'll become the King of the Sea, right?! ! !
What bad guys bullying my brother? According to the setting of this world, the biggest bad guys are you star pirates!!!
[Beep beep, so annoying! System battery is 85%. Host, keep up the good work~]
