I'm transported to the Zerg world, and my female Zerg wife loves me so much.

Mikel said, "Because he doesn't like Aris, and Aris loves playing with me the most."

Cheng Chu asked cautiously, "Then...then Aris? Who is he?"

Mikel's eyes darkened, a flicker of pain crossing them. He didn't immediately answer the male insect's question, perhaps lost in thought.

Cheng Chu thought he had said something wrong, so he quickly said, "Should I have asked that?"

"No." Mikel snapped out of his thoughts, meeting the male insect's cautious gaze. He touched the male insect's face and said, "Master, there's nothing you shouldn't ask."

Mikel was lost in memories, telling Cheng Chu about the past that the insects didn't know.

"Aris is the fifth female offspring of the Insect Emperor, and he is the most outstanding female military officer I have ever seen..."

Aris and Mikel were soldiers in the same year, Aris was Mikel's comrade-in-arms, and Aris was Mikel's first friend.

He initially concealed his identity when he entered the military. Although he was an S-class female insect, he made a lot of fools on the training ground due to a lack of basic combat knowledge.

Mikel couldn't stand it anymore and casually offered a couple of pointers. Just because Mikel helped him once, he started pestering him.

No matter how cold Mikel's attitude was or how impolite his words were, Aris never gave up.

Whenever he had free time, he would chatter on and on about silly things to Mikel. After a while, Mikel got used to his presence and stopped rejecting him.

The two female insects, with their different experiences, became friends.

Aris's outgoing nature quickly made him popular in the legion, and he became acquainted with many of the female soldiers.

But his best friend was Mikel.

The Empire won the battle two years ago.

The entire Zerg race was cheering and celebrating, but the severely wounded Mikel lay in the intensive care unit, constantly replaying the last scene before Aris's sacrifice.

Aris has white hair; he doesn't like to grow it long and always keeps it shaved. From a distance, it looks like a fuzzy thing, but it feels prickly to the touch.

Aris tugged at his combat suit one last time, grinning broadly. "Mikel, you wait for me to come back. Once the Legion issues Star Coins, I'll have enough to treat you to their most expensive dish, Honey Glazed Red Meat, at Century Golden Garden."

His tone was very boastful, as if being able to invite Mikel to dinner was something to be very proud of.

Mikel said calmly, "You talk too much nonsense."

After saying that, he tossed him a bottle of nutrient solution and turned to walk towards his own combat airship.

Behind him, Aris, while munching on a nutrient solution, kept calling out, "Mikel, I'm serious, don't you believe me?"

At the time, Aris was very poor because he refused the royal star coins. He could only rely on the legion's allowance each month to make ends meet, but he was used to spending money lavishly.

So we'll have to wait until the allowance is paid out to invite Mikel.

Mikel ignored Aris's madness, waved his hand, and stepped directly onto his warship.

That was the last time Mikel saw Aris, and the next time he heard news of him was of his sacrifice.

The final investigation revealed that Aris lost his mind on the battlefield due to a mental breakdown. His airship crashed into an enemy warship, resulting in mutual destruction and leaving no trace of their bodies.

"They only brought back the wreckage of the Aris airship..." Mikel stopped there, looking into the male insect's already moist black eyes, and sighed that the male insect was still too young.

Mikel rubbed the corner of the male insect's eye with his index finger, asking teasingly, "What's wrong? Why does the male seem about to cry? Didn't you just say it wasn't a baby?"

Unlike usual, Cheng Chu didn't react angrily to Mikel's teasing this time. He grabbed Mikel's hand and pressed it to his face, his expression worried: "Wife, Aris is gone, are you very sad?"

Mikel sighed. He didn't answer the male insect's question directly, but simply said, "Master, two years have passed."

Time heals all wounds; even the saddest things will pass.

The bedroom fell silent; no one spoke again.

Cheng Chu got up, hugged Mikel, and lay down.

Through the blanket, Cheng Chu gently patted Mikel's back, as if coaxing a sleeping little insect.

An invisible spiritual force slowly emanated, enveloping Mikel's entire body.

Cheng Chu gently coaxed the female insect in his arms, "Wife, go to sleep. I'll stay with you forever."

Cheng Chu didn't know what it felt like to lose a friend. However, he knew it would never be as nonchalant as Mikel appeared.

Mikel must have been in a lot of pain at that time, and Cheng Chu was very sad that she hadn't comforted him or given him a hug.

He was clumsy and didn't know how to comfort Mikel with words, so he could only try to coax him to sleep.

Mikel was immersed in the male insect's scent, feeling his body temperature, his breath, and his spiritual power, pulling herself out of those painful memories and slowly closing her eyes.

With the male insect's patting and coaxing, and its generous mental support, Mikel quickly relaxed and fell asleep.

Cheng Chu stared at the ceiling with his eyes open, thinking about Aris's sacrifice, how much Mikel cared about Aris, and whether Mikel was very sad.

Finally, he wondered if Mikel, like Aris, was a female soldier and might go to the battlefield that day, and if she would end up like Aris.

What should he do then?

It's unrealistic to prevent Mikel from going to the battlefield.

Will he and the baby lose Mikel?

Lost in thought, I lost track of how much time had passed.

Cheng Chu looked at Mikel's sleeping face, gently kissed Mikel's cheek, and then fell asleep in his arms, his mind still a mess.

…………

The next day, as soon as Mikel made a sound, Cheng Chu woke up quickly.

Mikel was somewhat surprised: "My lord, did I wake you? Would you like to sleep a little longer?"

Cheng Chu rubbed her eyes and slowly sat up. Her voice was still hoarse from waking up: "No, I'm not going to sleep anymore."

Mikel assumed the male was getting up early to go to the breeding center. He didn't try to dissuade him, saying, "Then the male will wash up with me. I'll go find you your clothes for today; you can get up first."

Cheng Chu nodded: "Okay."

He had only gone to sleep late at night and was now incredibly tired, but he still wanted to watch Mikel.

Otherwise, if he doesn't wake up in the morning, he won't see Mikel until he gets off work in the evening.

For some reason, ever since hearing Aris's story, Cheng Chu has felt a sense of panic.

After Cheng Chu and Mikel finished washing up, Cheng Chu ate breakfast with Mikel while chewing on nutrient solution.

He stared intently at Mikel's profile, not blinking, seemingly lost in thought.
