Zerg: Why is the Overlord like that?

So, is Lanlan actually the name of a pet?

For some reason, Elvis didn't seem to mind being treated like a pet by Jian Chi at all.

Or rather, he would accept whatever the powerful ruler thought of him.

Jian Chi's next sentence made him even more excited.

In their family, only the most beloved insect offspring are given nicknames.

His current name was given to him by his father after he was found to have dual S-level mental strength.

"Whatever you want to call me, Master," he said.

Hearing him say that, Jian Chi didn't insist.

He propped his chin on his hand, gazing into Elvis's blue eyes, which seemed to be filled with starlight, and said:

"Then, would you like to be called Xingxing (Star)?"

Elvis's eyes lit up instantly.

It was a brightness that Jian Chi had never seen since he transmigrated here, like a crystal that had been wiped clean of dust, finally revealing its original dazzling brilliance.

"I like it, my lord," Elvis said without hesitation.

Upon hearing this, Jian Chi raised an eyebrow and jokingly replied with a smile, "Yes, I know."

Then Elvis realized that what he had just said sounded like he was saying "I like male rulers".

His cheeks flushed instantly, but this time, he didn't instinctively lower his eyes or look away.

Instead, he mustered his courage and looked at Jian Chi. Bathed in the warm white light, he looked up at the male insect with black hair, black eyes, and a gentle smile.

This is his male lord, the gentlest and kindest male lord, and she is his female lord. Now, he has a nickname that represents being loved...

He opened his mouth: "My lord."

"Um?"

"May I call you by your nickname?"

Jian Chi's smile deepened.

"Star."

His gentleness made Elvis's heart tremble. He smiled slightly, but a hot tear slid down his cheek.

"Yes, I am a star..."

After a while.

"A mighty ruler."

"Um?"

Meow~

Jian Chi looked at Elvis with a puzzled expression:

"That's strange, the worm patterns on your face aren't showing up, Xingxing. Why are you suddenly trying to comfort me?"

Elvis blushed, because he could clearly see the smile in the master's eyes and that gentle "star".

The powerful ruler is teasing him again.

Elvis's eyelashes trembled twice, and he answered softly, "I want to..."

"What are you thinking about?"

"appease."

Do you like it?

Before Elvis could even utter the word "like," Jian Chi rolled it up and stuffed it into his stomach.

Ten minutes later.

Jian Chi released Elvis and yawned.

Seeing this, Elvis wisely said, "Your Majesty, please rest first."

She then got up to go to the wardrobe and take out the quilt she used to sleep under.

As soon as I got up, Jian Chi grabbed me.

"Where to?"

"I'll go get the blanket."

"The bed is so big, why insist on sleeping on the floor instead of the bed?"

While yawning, Jian Chi pulled Elvis's hand and walked towards the bed.

He didn't use much force; he even loosened his grip with a slight struggle.

But how could Elvis let go? He followed Jian Chi's lead and walked closer step by step.

In his mind, the blurry figure, the狰狞 (zhengning, meaning ferocious or hideous) face that forbade him from ever coming near the bed, crumbled without leaving a trace.

Following the force, he lay down completely, his breathing involuntarily becoming lighter.

I thought the powerful ruler would say something more, but he didn't.

Just let nature take its course.

Not long after lying down, I heard the steady breathing of the male master sleeping beside me.

Elvis carefully turned his head and looked at Jian Chi's sleeping profile.

He suddenly remembered the first time he saw the male ruler asleep.

The rulers of that time were like this, with their soft, black hair scattered all around them, their heads buried in soft pillows.

He looked asleep, radiating a gentle aura.

What was he thinking back then?

By the way, when he saw this scene, he thought: How could a male insect be gentle?

Now it seems that his powerful ruler was indeed gentle.

He actually had some doubts.

For example, the line the male ruler just mentioned about their first meeting.

Does the powerful ruler already know that he knows?

But how would the powerful ruler know this?

He didn't show it at all...

But he also felt it was only natural; how could a powerful ruler not guess it?

As for the rest, he thought, the powerful ruler would tell him when he wanted to.

Just like tonight, the fact that the male ruler revealed this secret means that he trusts him completely.

Thinking of this, the corners of Elvis's mouth slowly turned up again, and his eyes became even brighter, like stars.

After watching for a while, Elvis turned off the light and closed his eyes.

Tonight will be the happiest and most wonderful night of his life.

However, happiness in reality cannot extend into dreams.

Elvis had another nightmare.

He dreamt of the same nightmare again, with many more fragments added to the dream.

Some were unfamiliar, some were familiar.

In the shattered dream, he was given to the Third Prince by the "Male Lord". He struggled desperately, but what he got in return was the pain of having his wings removed and his five senses stripped away.

He couldn't feel what he was going through; all he knew was that it was endless darkness.

Later, he was sent back to the Mittel family, where his father scolded him for being ungrateful and causing trouble for the Mittel family.

The female father also complained about why he didn't obediently obey the Third Prince.

He was thrown back into that dark room where there was no light...

In the darkness, an evil voice quietly arose within.

He was saying, "Elvis, have you forgotten the pain you suffered?"

"Have you forgotten the torment of countless lifetimes?"

"Have you forgotten the vows you made in your past lives, and the lives before that, and the lives before that...?"

"Elvis, this is your last chance. Destroy everything, break free from your own shackles, and you will gain true freedom..."

"No, no! My lord!"

Elvis woke up with a start, panting, his forehead beaded with sweat, and his beautiful blue eyes still held the lingering fear.

He was filled with doubt and uncertainty.

That dream felt so real.

Even though the events in his dream never happened, he felt as if he had actually experienced them.

So what exactly happened?

A vague suspicion arose deep within him, but Elvis dared not believe it.

His gaze shifted to Jian Chi beside him, and the fear in his eyes gradually dissipated.

That's not true.

he thinks.

How could a powerful ruler possibly give him to the Third Prince?

Perhaps it was because he stared at him for too long that Jian Chi, who was already quite asleep, opened his eyes.

The two insects looked at each other but neither spoke.

In the end, it was Elvis who was defeated first.

"Good morning, my lord."

Good morning, stars.

Upon hearing the word "stars," Elvis's heart skipped a beat again.

He was certain once again that it was just a nightmare that was far too real.

At the same time, the system in Jian Chi's mind, which had been holding back all night, finally couldn't hold back any longer.

[You told me this after you woke up, tell me quickly!]
