Zerg: Why is the Overlord like that?

Jian Chi opened his eyes, looked at the scene before him, and his breath hitched.

The aircraft was lit by a dim, warm light.

Under the warm light, Elvis, wearing a pink wig, squatted at his feet, looking up at him.

This wig isn't as long as it used to be; it's been trimmed, resembling a wolf tail mullet.

It has a pair of small white cat ears on its head, with pink in the middle and a ring of fine white fur around the edge.

Elvis's eyes are no longer blue, but rather a bluish-pink, which looks very harmonious with his pink wolf-tail mullet head.

A pure black pulse ring held her slender neck in place, with a small gold-pink bell hanging from it.

Seeing Jian Chi looking over, Elvis's cheeks, covered in golden insect patterns, gradually flushed crimson, and his eyelashes trembled twice like butterfly wings.

The golden insect patterns, which would normally appear out of place, actually take on a unique beauty under the warm yellow light and pink hair.

"Meow~"

Elvis suppressed his shame and whispered twice, feeling somewhat uneasy.

Does his current appearance resemble the insect that the male lord prefers?

Would a powerful ruler like that...?

In his anxiety, all he received was a long silence, and Elvis's heart sank lower and lower.

really.

It must be because he is not good-looking and his attire is so poor that the powerful ruler remains silent.

Suppressing the bitterness in her heart, she was about to apologize when she saw Jian Chi reach out and fiddle with the gold and pink bells twice.

The bell made a crisp "ding-a-ling" sound.

"I love so much."

Hearing the king's gentle voice, the bitterness and sadness that welled up in his heart instantly disappeared, and his eyes brightened slightly.

Then, the male ruler spoke gently again: "Stars."

I was going to reply with an "Mmm," but then I realized what I meant and replied with a "Meow~"

"Shake the bell once every ten seconds, hmm?"

Elvis didn't know what the male wanted to do, but he still nodded obediently, gently stroking the bell with his right hand, and replied:

Meow~

"Look up, come closer."

Like a man offering his neck for execution, or a believer making a sacrifice, Elvis closed his eyes, feeling this tenderness that belonged to him yet did not belong to him.

The bell, which rang every ten seconds, continuously emitted a crisp "ding-a-ling" sound, echoing within the aircraft and transforming into an ambiguous atmosphere that constantly wafted and rose around it.

When the two insects emerged from the aircraft, it was already completely dark.

Elvis walked slightly behind Jian Chi, his eyes lowered as he stared at the hand he was holding with Xiong Zhu. The corners of his mouth unconsciously turned up, and his eyes were filled with starlight.

Recalling everything that had just happened inside the aircraft, her cheeks flushed, and her heart felt as sweet as if it were soaking in honey.

"God of Insects, please forgive his despicable act," he thought.

Even if this tenderness was stolen from him, a fleeting transference of affection from a powerful ruler, he didn't want to let go.

So, wait until the lord despises me, wait until I'm dead, then punish me...

The lights were still on in the living room of the villa.

Little La stood quietly in the darkness beside the doorway, silent and still, as if she had become one with the darkness.

The screen lit up with "^_^" when it detected that Jianchi and Elvis had returned.

"Welcome home, Lord Jane Chi, General Elvis!"

Jian Chi was in a good mood and curled his lips into a smile.

"Yes, we're back, Little La. Have you been waiting long?"

"It wasn't long at all. According to statistics, I only waited for you and the general at the door for six hours, thirty-two minutes, and twenty-eight seconds."

"..."

Jian Chi raised an eyebrow.

Could it be that he downloaded some sarcastic language mode when he was debugging Xiaola earlier?

Fortunately, after saying that, Xiao La didn't say anything more and followed him and Elvis into the villa.

Before he and Elvis could return to their room, Little La spoke up:

"Please wait a moment, Lord Jian Chi, General Elvis. Your father, Lucien, has left you some food. Would you like me to bring it out now?"

Jian Chi thought for a moment. He realized that he hadn't had dinner during the banquet, so he nodded.

"Okay, bring it out."

Even though it's almost time to sleep, I'll still eat something to tide me over so I don't wake up hungry at night.

After having a quick bite to eat, Jian Chi and Elvis went into the room.

After the two insects finished washing up, Elvis also removed his disguise, revealing his original white hair and blue eyes.

Seeing this, Jian Chi couldn't help but sigh in his heart, he still preferred Elvis's original appearance.

Of course, he also liked how he looked on the aircraft earlier; it's nice to try something new once in a while.

Lying in bed, Jian Chi remembered that there was still a scene he hadn't finished, and asked Elvis:

"Did you tell your father-in-law? Take me there."

Elvis lay on his side, his gaze unconsciously falling on Jian Chi's lips, his cheeks flushing slightly, and he softly hummed in agreement.

"It's already agreed that you can come whenever you're free during this period."

Having received a reply, Jianchi asked the system:

How long is the time limit for this scenario?

Upon hearing this, the system was incredibly moved, sobbing, "The host is too good to me!"

[It just needs to be completed within three days!]

【I see. 】

"In that case, let's rest tomorrow and go the day after tomorrow."

Elvis readily agreed: "I'll talk to my father-in-law tomorrow."

"OK."

After saying that, Jian Chi turned off the light and closed his eyes.

After a few seconds of silence, Elvis's soft, small voice came from the side:

"Goodnight, my lord..."

After a pause, he added, "Meow~"

In the darkness, he saw Jian Chi's lips curl into a smile.

Goodnight, stars.

So the corners of his mouth unconsciously turned up, and he closed his eyes.

It's likely that Jian Chi was still thinking about how the scene moved the system, so the system brought it up before Jian Chi fell asleep.

[Host, you should have figured out how to complete this scenario, right?]

After all, no matter how difficult those scenarios were, the host had cleverly accomplished them.

This time it definitely won't be difficult for the host!

Unexpectedly, Jian Chi replied: "Hmm... I haven't thought of that yet."

The system was stunned.

[Unexpected?]

Is this scenario really that difficult for the host?!

What should we do then?

The system was frantically searching for a solution.

However, it cannot be found at all.

Even if it could go through this part of the plot hundreds of times in 0.001 seconds, it still wouldn't know how to solve it.

The system, which was vaguely sensing that its brain was not working properly, simply gave up.

It's okay, it reassured itself.

There's still one day left. Maybe the host will come up with an idea tomorrow?

Then came the next day.

The system watched as Jian Chi finished breakfast and went into his room to browse the StarNet, just like before. It couldn't help but feel relieved, thinking that the host must be looking for a solution.

Unexpectedly, Jianchi Brush Star Network clicked into that custom shop again.

I spent the whole day browsing that custom shop!

Apart from that, I haven't seen anything else.

The system panicked.

However, due to blind trust in Jian Chi, before Jian Chi went to sleep that night, she asked him hopefully:

[Host, have you thought of a solution?]

In response, Jian Chi replied quite readily: "No."
