"My lord, it's time to rest."
Baturu seemed oblivious to the murderous gazes directed at him. His eyes remained calm and serene as he entered the bedroom like a sage monk. He quickly closed the door, shutting out the maids' pleading and yearning looks as they entered with him.
He touched his sweaty forehead, realizing he hadn't been this nervous even during his battle with the Black Skull.
'Thanks' to those thoughtful level three barbarians who, in order to serve him well, carefully selected more than a thousand maids to serve him when he was less than ten days old.
Over the years, these maids have served him wholeheartedly, being considerate in every way. Especially after he turned ten, they would always keep him close by, making all sorts of little gestures, like thousands of movements just to help him get dressed.
Whether it's those level-three barbarians who shoved women in from outside, or these maids, how could Baturu not know what they were up to?
But he's only ten years old!
Ten years old,
Shameless!
They're going to lay their evil hands on a ten-year-old child—how utterly depraved!
Although each of these maids was a top-tier individual, selected from countless tribes, their beauty standards were based on those of barbarians.
What kind of woman do they like best?
They prefer women who can ride horses on their shoulders...
Baturu was two meters tall at ten years old, and these maids averaged two and a half meters in height; each one was so strong that if they wore armor, they could smash through mountains...
Baturu witnessed his maids beating the guards in his personal guard to the ground, unable to get up, on more than one occasion.
It must be said that any barbarian who could become his maid must not only be beautiful, generous, and intelligent, but also possess exceptional martial arts skills and outstanding abilities.
In the words of these maids, if any bad person were to plot against the great Lord Baturu, they would be the last line of defense...
Even if Baturu's soul was an ancient relic that had lived for nearly three thousand years, he still couldn't accept this kind of operation; it was too outrageous!!
He didn't continue to remain celibate for Alice, but at the very least, the woman he had relations with had to be a delicate, beautiful, gentle, kind, and gentle Snow Elf.
Instead of a savage who can break a river with a single punch and tear apart a beast with his bare hands...
Barbarians place great importance on Bloodline. Barbarian history tells them that the stronger a person is, the more talented their offspring will be. They don't know the reason why, but they know that doing so is definitely not wrong.
As the first person in history to be simultaneously favored by a thousand gods, and whose destiny, according to the Book of Revelation, could change the fate of barbarians—a feat unprecedented and unparalleled—his Bloodline is the most Bloodline in the Barbarian World, and his offspring will surely surpass all other barbarians.
As he grew older, everyone wanted him to have some kind of relationship with these maids, especially his adoptive parents.
She even told him privately that if they didn't like these maids, they could choose better ones. After all, all the barbarians in the world were his subordinates, and it was an honor for any of them to be favored by him. He could have as many as 100,000 female barbarians as he wanted, it wouldn't matter.
When his adoptive father said this, his eyes were filled with envy, as if he had put himself in Baturu's shoes, completely oblivious to Baturu's clenched fist!!!
Over the years, this cheap father, because he gave birth to Baturu, the most illustrious barbarian in history, has had countless large tribes secretly showering him with women.
According to Baturu, he had relations with at least 10,000 female barbarians outside the tribe, and there were many more he didn't know about. He probably doesn't even know how many descendants he has now.
"Forget it, I'll just get promoted. After that, I'll be free."
Baturu had been suppressing his strength, intending to advance a level when he came of age. However, feeling the increasingly burning gazes, he had a bad feeling. Perhaps one day, a group of fierce and lustful maids would break down his wooden door and force him onto the bed for sexual intercourse.
It's not impossible; only he himself knows how inappropriate the maids' gazes were—eating him would be the least of his worries.
He opened his mouth wide, took a deep breath, and inhaled all the energy in the room, causing his belly to bulge high.
"Boom"
A muffled thud came from inside my body, as if a door that restricted my physical limits had been violently kicked open!
Baturu's aura was rapidly increasing, and his body was growing slowly at a visible rate.
A powerful suction force emanated from within the body, like a ravenous beast awakening, devouring all energy it could absorb, and rapidly spreading throughout the entire palace.
The energy within the palace rapidly converged towards Baturu's room. None of the guards or maids around him were weak, so they naturally knew what was happening.
"Lord Baturu is advancing to the next level, absorbing energy to replenish himself. Quickly bring out all the prepared energy crystals. Everyone, maintain maximum alert and do not make any noise."
"Anyone who interferes with Lord Baturu's advancement will have their entire tribe wiped out."
The level 3 barbarian Heroy were the first captains of the Royal Guard. The moment they realized Baturu's promotion, they had already completed all the preparations.
Ten thousand level 130,000 barbarians quickly appeared a dozen kilometers outside the palace, while one hundred thousand level 2 barbarians continued to expand outwards, spreading out like stars across every place within fifty kilometers, ensuring that not even a howl of a snow wolf would reach the palace tonight.
They had rehearsed countless times in private for this moment, their piercing eyes scanning every position, ready to unleash a devastating attack from the violent barbarians at the slightest provocation.
While defending the palace, they would occasionally cast expectant glances into it, as if they could see Lord Baturu ascending to a higher level in the deepest room.
Barbarians come of age in two ways: one is at fifteen, which is universally acknowledged by all barbarians; the other is by being promoted one rank.
Once you advance one level, you've reached adulthood.
As for after reaching adulthood, of course one can get married...
Thinking of this, countless barbarians, while excited and happy, couldn't hide the bitterness on their faces.
This is because they all realized that Lord Baturu was intentionally suppressing his aura. He could have advanced six years ago, but Baturu simply refused to.
Moreover, he showed no interest whatsoever in the presence of so many beautiful and strong maids; in fact, he seemed to avoid them at all.
This is a major headache for all barbarians; it's not right for a powerful male barbarian to not have many female barbarians as wives.
The strong possess everything; this is the unspoken rule of barbarian races.
What should be done now that Lord Baturu dislikes the best woman in his race?
Unaware of the countless barbarians outside worrying about his marriage prospects, Baturu, now adrift in the void, smiled at the tiny red worm no bigger than a thumb before him.
" Leo, Level-Five Stigmata Wizard Atomic Control, is now the Barbarian Baturu. Greetings, Little Bookworm."
Baturu was in the process of advancing in rank when his consciousness was suddenly transported to this void, where he saw the little red insect before him. This was, of course, the target of Leo's split soul—a cosmic-level treasure... the Little Bookworm.
The Red Little Bookworm smiled at Baturu, as if they were old friends reunited after many years. "I'm Little Bookworm No. 001. Are you here in place of Xiao Er, or Xiao Qi?"
"???"
Baturu was taken aback; he hadn't expected the very first question he'd asked to stump him.
"You possess the auras of both Xiao Er and Xiao Qi, but Xiao Qi 'Xiao Er aura is stronger than Xiao Qi's. Or are you representing both of them?" Little Bookworm No. 001 saw that Baturu's expression had froze for a moment, and then explained with a smile.
"I was sent by Little Bookworm No. 007, but I don't know if the Xiao Er' you mentioned is Little Bookworm No. 002?"
Baturu immediately realized what was happening, his pupils dilating slightly. According to the Little Bookworm No. 001 in front of him, he had been in contact with the Little Bookworm No. 002 for a long time, but he just didn't know it.
How is it possible that a cosmic treasure has been with you for so long without you noticing it?
"I see. I won't go into details about Xiao Er then; you can find him yourself."
Red Little Bookworm No. 001 revealed a mysterious smile, without telling Baturu who Little Bookworm No. 002 was.
"What did you say to Xiao Qi this time?"
"He said you want to reunite, but because you're scattered all over the universe, it's difficult for you to meet, so he asked me to help you." Baturu didn't hide his purpose, and this was indeed the request of Little Bookworm No. 007.
Hearing Baturu's words, the Red Little Bookworm's smile faded, and he nodded solemnly. "Reuniting is indeed the common wish of all of us brothers, but I can't leave. Only the two of them can come."
"Is it because of this Barbarian World?"
"Yes, it's because I can't leave this world."
"Could you explain what happened in more detail? I'm obligated to help, and I'll do my best to assist if I can." Baturu spoke with righteous indignation, as if he were a paragon of virtue who loved helping others.
The Red Little Bookworm's tiny, bean-like eyes stared directly into Baturu's eyes; their gazes met.
"Pfft"
The Red Little Bookworm suddenly laughed.
"Alright, stop pretending. You've lived for thousands of years, and you're still acting all high and mighty if you want to have me."
Baturu, unfazed by his exposed scheme, casually remarked, "You Little Bookworm are all cosmic treasures; it would be a lie to say I'm not tempted. Besides, before I came here, Little Bookworm No. 007 told me that I could use you until you reunite."
"This is the reward I deserve for risking a split soul; it's not out of arrogance."
