Cute Bug Overlord, Join the Chat Group!

It seemed to sense a living creature approaching, and the egg began bouncing more violently, as if it could hatch at any moment.

"Another Zerg?"

At some point, the white-haired girl had also run over to Zerg's side.

She reached out and poked the bouncing egg.

So this was how Zerg were born?

Kiana could not help imagining a scene—

A tiny egg bounced as the creature inside struggled desperately, trying to break free from its shell.

At last, a tiny crack appeared on the egg, and an adorable little head poked out.

Just like the egg in front of her.

Wait, the egg in front of her?

The upper half of the egg suddenly split open, revealing a tiny creature.

It was another creature completely out of place in this world.

It had black bean-like eyes, an open W-shaped mouth, and two wing-like organs on its back.

"So cute!"

At the sight of such an adorable creature, stars appeared in Kiana's eyes.

"It's a Zergling!"

Zerg lifted it out of the egg.

Without Creep to provide nutrients, this egg had only hatched one Zergling.

And one of the Zergling's teeth was broken.

Outwardly, this meant that one part of its otherwise neat W-shaped mouth was strangely flat.

"..."

The tiny Zergling stuck out its purple tongue.

Its black bean-like eyes looked at Zerg, then at the white-haired biped beside the Swarm Overlord.

"Zerg, can I hold it?"

The white-haired girl made this request.

"Mm, don't bite her."

Tilting his head slightly, Zerg said this.

"How could I possibly bite it?!"

Kiana put her hands on her hips, declaring that she did not have any weird preferences.

It was just that this creature called a Zergling was far too adorable.

At most, she would only rub against it a little.

"Zerg was telling it."

The Swarm Overlord explained.

"Huh?"

Kiana froze.

"Haha, it's fine, Zerg."

Looking at the tiny, adorable creature, the white-haired girl relaxed again.

How much strength could something so small possibly have?

Even if it bit her once, it would be fine.

She thought.

"..."

Skadi covered her forehead.

This was an Ægir city that had been ravaged by Seaborn, yet Kiana and Zerg seemed completely fearless.

But that was not strange.

One claimed to be from another world, while the other was a biological weapon created by the Ægir.

They had probably never even seen living Seaborn before.

"Here, Kiana!"

Holding up the Zergling, Zerg handed it to the white-haired girl.

"Slurp!"

The moment Kiana took the puppy-like Zergling, its pink tongue licked her all over the face.

"Hahaha, stop licking me, that tickles."

The white-haired girl only found it a little ticklish.

The creature in her hands looked at her with its black bean-like eyes, its little wings constantly fluttering behind it.

"So cute."

Kiana felt as though her heart were melting.

"..."

But Skadi felt that the creature Zerg called a Zergling was not as harmless as it looked.

"Gah!"

The Zergling stuck out its tongue and stared blankly at the white-haired girl.

"Kiana, it says it's hungry."

Zerg spoke at that moment.

"What should I do? I didn't bring any food."

Kiana looked troubled.

She had not brought anything to eat when she came here.

Otherwise, she would not have hugged Zerg earlier in an attempt to stop him from swallowing Skadi whole.

"There's food all over the ground."

Zerg looked at the white-haired girl with an innocent expression.

He picked up a creature's corpse from the ground and swallowed it whole.

"..."

Kiana's eye twitched.

She silently put down the Zergling in her hands.

In the blink of an eye, the puppy-like creature appeared beside a creature's corpse.

"That speed..."

The white-haired girl froze.

It seemed a little too fast.

If she did not watch carefully, she could not even detect it.

"Crunch... crunch... crunch..."

The Zergling clamped its W-shaped mouth onto a creature's corpse much larger than itself and began chewing with a blank, innocent look.

"...What a terrifying creature."

Skadi looked at the puppy-like creature.

She could not help commenting.

It moved faster than most Seaborn.

And its body was incredibly small, small enough to slip into the ventilation ducts of an Ægir city.

Its frontal combat power was unknown, but it would likely be more than capable of dealing with ordinary Ægir people.

If a dozen or so Zerglings got loose in an Ægir city, that city would probably never know peace again.

"Skadi, want some?"

A Seaborn corpse appeared before her, and the Abyssal Hunter lowered her head to look at it.

It was a small child.

Some twisted limbs still protruded from the corner of its mouth.

Yet Zerg's expression did not change in the slightest.

"Gulp."

The last remnants of Seaborn limbs vanished as well.

"...No, thank you."

After several seconds of silence, Skadi said this.

Just what kind of terrifying existence had the Ægir created?

She could not help thinking.

She had thought the Abyssal Hunters were already the pinnacle of Ægir biological achievement, but now it seemed they had developed even more advanced biological weapons.

"Cough, cough, Zerg, could you stop eating those things?"

Looking at the small child eating Seaborn raw, Kiana felt deeply uncomfortable.

How could such an adorable child eat things like that?

"But Zerg has nothing else to eat. Those rocks and metals don't taste good."

The Swarm Overlord said this.

These Seaborn corpses were more nutritious and tasted better than rocks and metal.

If he did not eat Seaborn, Zerg did not know what else he could eat.

"...I've decided! From now on, I'll be the one feeding you!"

Kiana was fired up!

Zerg was so small. No matter how big his appetite was, it could not possibly be that big.

Although she only had one hundred thousand yen on hand, it did not matter. Feeding Zerg would definitely be easy!

Part-time warrior Kiana was about to make her entrance!

"Awroo!"

Just as Kiana was getting fired up, the Abyssal Hunter raised her hand.

And along with it, she raised the tiny child.

Their eyes met just like that.

The Orca Who Abducted Zerg

Skadi had just taken out an Ægir-made high-energy nutrition bar from her pocket.

It was used to replenish strength during breaks in battle.

But the moment she took it out, Zerg swallowed the high-energy nutrition bar whole—

Along with the Abyssal Hunter's pale hand.
