Cute Bug Overlord, Join the Chat Group!
Author: rag
Introduction:
This chat group has the following rules:
1. Although the group leader is very cute, please do not accept the group leader's summons at will.
2. If you unfortunately accept the group leader's summons, please do not feed the cute bugs all sorts of strange food. Although it won't kill the bugs, they will spit out strange things. (Absolutely do not feed them Originium or Herrscher Core; you do not want to see these cute little guys multiplying.)
3. If you are unfortunately approached by a cute bug, please do not stick your hand into its mouth at will. Violators will bear the consequences themselves (so far, the cute bugs have bitten through the equipment of several Valkyries).
4. Please do not investigate the source of the ingredients for the potions the group leader uses to treat members. Trust me, you do not want to know. (A certain green-haired scientist had their worldview collapse because of this.)
5. Finally, definitely do not (crossed out) summon the group leader over! (As of now, the worlds of several group members have already been occupied by these cute little guys.)
Volume One: Chapter 1 Zerg and the Chat Group
"Zerg!" (Hungry!)
On a damaged artificial platform, a tiny figure stood.
He raised his hands, calling out to the few small, purple creatures standing before him.
"Ga!" (Food!)
"Wu!" (Search!)
"Ka!" (Eat!)
The three small creatures also raised their cute claws one after another.
Then, they scattered, burrowing into this city located on the seabed, attempting to find food to fill their stomachs for their Overlord.
"Zerg!" (So hungry!)
The tiny figure sat down on the spot, clutching his stomach with both hands, looking at the deep, dark blue seawater in the distance with a distressed expression.
A faint, shimmering barrier blocked the influx of seawater, but it also made the source of food extremely limited, relying solely on searching the abandoned city for sustenance.
So hungry, want to eat something.
In his tiny head, there was only this simple thought.
[Dimensional Chat Group has been established!]
A strange sound suddenly rang in his ears.
"Zerg?" (Where did that sound come from?)
The tiny figure was somewhat confused.
He raised his head, looking around for the source of the sound.
But there were no other living beings present.
In his perception, there were only three Zerg drones active.
And—
What is a Dimensional Chat Group?
Is it edible?
This thought popped into his mind.
A phantom light screen appeared before his eyes.
[Please name yourself, host.]
"Zerg?" (What is naming?)
[Group leader name: Zerg, confirmed.]
[Please invite members to the chat group.]
"Zerg?" (My name is Zerg?)
Zerg blinked his eyes, somewhat confused.
Having been born only a few days ago, he was completely unable to understand this thing.
"Zerg?" (What is inviting chat group members? Is it edible?)
[Please invite members to the chat group.]
"Zerg!" (Hungry, food, eat!)
Zerg said in a somewhat pitiful tone.
However, the mechanical electronic voice remained unmoved.
[Please invite members to the chat group.]
[Host has failed to invite chat group members three times, automatic invitation in progress...]
[Inviting group members... Invitation successful!]
A white-haired avatar appeared on the illusory light screen.
The group name was [The Ultimate Invincible Super-Duper Cute Paramecium!].
Inside a small room.
The white-haired girl, who had just speared a spoonful of instant noodles with her fork, widened her eyes.
A strange sound had just echoed in her ears—
[Joining the Dimensional Chat Group... Join successful!]
Then, an illusory light screen appeared before the girl.
"???"
What was this thing?
Kiana Kaslana's brain was struggling to keep up.
Before she could investigate what this strange light screen was, a message appeared—
[Hungry Zerg: Hungry! Want to eat!]
[Hungry Zerg: There are only rocks and metal in the city!]
[Hungry Zerg: Rocks taste terrible! Metal tastes terrible!]
[Hungry Zerg: Food! Eat!]
The white-haired girl slowly opened her mouth wide.
She didn't even notice that the instant noodles she had speared had fallen off.
This guy looked so pitiful.
Even the name sounded like it was starving.
Although this [Dimensional Chat Group] was very strange, right now, in front of the righteous Kaslana girl, there was a poor fellow suffering from hunger!
Kiana declared that she absolutely would not allow such a thing to happen in front of her.
[The Ultimate Invincible Super-Duper Cute Paramecium!: Where are you now? I have lots of delicious food here! Give me an address, and I'll send it to you right away!]
She mastered how to send messages in this so-called Dimensional Chat Group without needing to be taught.
But the ID that popped up above made Kiana Kaslana freeze.
The Ultimate Invincible Super-Duper Cute Paramecium?
The last three words were completely unnecessary!
She was not some Paramecium!
Kiana gritted her teeth and glared at the light screen.
What was even more hateful was—this piece of junk actually wouldn't let her change her name!
If she could change it, she would definitely change it to [The Ultimate Invincible Super-Duper Cute Kiana Kaslana!].
[Expectant Zerg: Food? Food? Want!]
[Expectant Zerg: Want food!]
Why could this Zerg change its name!
The white-haired girl wanted to protest.
Then, a light screen popped up in front of her—
[The poor Zerg is hungry, do you wish to summon him over and feed him?]
Appearing at the same time was an image.
It showed a small figure sitting in the ruins of a dilapidated city, hugging their legs, looking pitiful.
"..."
For a moment, Kiana couldn't bring herself to refuse.
A ruined city, a young and tender child...
In an instant, the white-haired girl imagined a story ten thousand words long.
"I agree!"
The Kaslana are the shield of the people!
If she sat by and did nothing, then she would have no right to bear this name!
Kiana was fired up!
She put down the fork in her hand and rummaged through cabinets to find the only food she had—
A box of instant noodles.
There was no help for it; she had just arrived in Nagazora City and hadn't found a job yet, and even the house was rented with the last of her money.
The instant noodles were bought with her very last bit of money.
Even in such destitute circumstances, Kiana still decided to choose to help this poor child!
"Zerg!" (Food!)
Her fair, tender little feet stepped onto the ground as Zerg cheered with her hands held high.
A deep, rippling portal appeared before her.
"Zerg!" (Food! Let's go!)
The tiny figure darted into the portal without a moment's hesitation.

Volume One: Chapter Two Feeding Zerg in Progress
A portal with a distinct sci-fi aesthetic suddenly appeared before the white-haired girl.
Then, a tiny figure emerged from this portal.
It was an adorable child who stirred one's pity—
She looked to be in her early teens, but she was very short, reaching only to Kiana's chest.
Her features were delicate and cute, and she wore a somewhat tattered white garment that left her fair, tender feet exposed.
Her temperament was innocent and pure, as if she had just been born.
"..."
Kiana Kaslana's face turned a little red.
