Cute Bug Overlord, Join the Chat Group!

S-so cute!

Alina's eyes went blank.

That pitiful little expression perfectly matched the kind of child Elafia girls occasionally fantasized about.

Her maternal instincts were practically overflowing.

"N-no!"

Suppressing a certain urge, Alina turned her head away.

She absolutely could not let Zerg lick Originium!

She could not bear the responsibility of letting such a cute child become Infected.

That kind of shame and regret would definitely crush her will!

"Alina~"

Without anyone teaching him, Zerg learned a certain trick.

"Hiss..."

Scarlet completely flooded her cheeks.

Alina's heart began pounding uncontrollably.

She really wanted to hold Zerg in her arms and squish his tender little cheeks!

She really wanted to buy lots of clothes and dress Zerg up even cuter!

She really wanted to...

In an instant, countless thoughts flashed through her mind.

Every single one was related to Zerg.

Her maternal instincts were overflowing!

The Elafia girl felt her will was about to be pierced by desire.

"N-no... no..."

Facing the wooden door, Alina covered her ears.

Talulah was still inside the cabin. If she found out...

The Elafia girl could not help trembling.

"..."

Mm, Alina refused. What should he do?

The method that had always worked before had failed.

Zerg blinked.

But the black stone would most likely speed up the Swarm's development.

And Alina was a good person who gave him food.

The small child stared at the Elafia girl.

She was leaning against the door at the moment, her body unconsciously arched, making a certain part appear exceptionally full and round.

However, the Swarm Overlord's attention was focused entirely on her wrist.

That was where the black stone was located.

In the end, Zerg began moving forward.

Developing the Swarm took priority over everything else right now.

He had to confirm the nature of that black stone.

"..."

Footsteps sounded behind her, and Alina's heart trembled.

Z-Zerg was coming over?

W-what was he going to do?

The Elafia girl wanted to turn around and stop Zerg from approaching.

But she was afraid that if she turned around and saw that small child's adorable face, all her earlier efforts would be for nothing.

What if she got muddleheaded and agreed?

And then—

"Alina, I never thought you were this kind of person."

Talulah's disappointed voice seemed to ring beside her ear.

The Elafia girl did not want to lose her friend.

Though it was not her subjective intention, someone who was nearly an adult had to take responsibility for their actions no matter what.

She absolutely could not...

"..."

The sleeve around her wrist was lifted.

Her fair wrist was exposed to the cold air.

Alina's body shuddered.

"Zerg, don't..."

She let out a weak protest.

The Elafia girl wanted to stop the small child's actions.

However, her wrist was grabbed and brought to a certain spot.

"Black stone!"

Zerg's eyes sparkled as he looked at the crystal embedded in her wrist.

A high-energy resource. If it could be harvested in large quantities, it could greatly accelerate the Swarm's development.

"..."

The tiny body contained immense strength, and Alina found herself unable to break free.

Warm breath brushed against her skin, and the Elafia girl's body unconsciously went limp.

A blush surfaced on her face.

Feeling that breath draw closer, Alina closed her eyes.

Talulah, I'm sorry.

"Slurp."

Fighter Talulah

Inside the warm little wooden cabin.

The white-haired dragon girl and the white-haired little dumpling held an in-depth exchange of views on bilateral relations and matters of mutual concern regarding interworld communication, reaching important consensus on the continued development of friendly exchanges within the Dimensional Chat Group.

Both sides would deepen practical cooperation, continue advancing interworld exchange, and serve their respective needs through higher levels of mutual trust and comprehensive, deep cooperation, joining hands to pursue their respective goals.

"..."

Skadi watched as Talulah drew a great deal of information out of Kiana Kaslana.

For example, her world's level of development, culture and geography, political environment...

The white-haired little dumpling had basically sold out her entire world.

"It has been a pleasure talking with you, Kiana Kaslana."

Talulah extended her hand.

"Y-yes..."

Kiana took her hand somewhat dazedly.

What had they just talked about again?

It seemed to be about her world?

But what exactly had she said?

The white-haired little dumpling sank into thought.

Meanwhile, Talulah was in high spirits.

The flames in her eyes burned even more fiercely.

Perhaps she had already found her path of struggle.

Another world was actually so beautiful and peaceful.

There was no war, no Catastrophes.

Technology was advanced, and everyone could eat their fill.

Everyone was equal. There were no nobles or emperors.

Such a prosperous age... actually existed!

Even in the past, Talulah's greatest fantasy had only been to ensure that everyone would not starve or freeze to death.

She had never imagined that such a world could exist.

And now, after hearing of such a world, an idea arose in Talulah's heart—

She would keep fighting to build such a world!

Even if she burned into ashes in the end, it would not matter!

Talulah dreamed that one day, everyone across Terra would be equal. There would be no emperors, no nobles, the Infected would not be discriminated against, and even Sarkaz could walk through the streets with their heads held high.

Talulah dreamed that one day, people of every race would join hands and build Terra together.

Talulah dreamed that one day...

She had many dreams.

And these dreams—

Would all become fuel for the fire of struggle, providing the fighter with endless motivation.

This was a sight Immortal Black Snake would never have imagined.

"..."

Kiana noticed Talulah's gaze.

It was... a look she could not understand.

Yet it was so captivating.

It was like seeing someone struggling through wind and snow, carrying firewood and kindling in their arms.

"Kiana, can I go and see your world?"

Gripping the white-haired little dumpling's hand tightly, the dragon girl could no longer suppress the excitement in her heart.

She had to see such a beautiful world with her own eyes!

"O-of course you can..."

Kiana Kaslana was startled.

Skadi had not shown this kind of excitement before.

"..."

The Abyssal Hunter shook her head.

To people of the land, Kiana's world was comparable to Laterano's earthly paradise.
