EROS [Zerg]

"Quickly disperse the male insects to protect Lord Kisang."

"We must capture these invading space pirates; we cannot let a single one escape. Bring them all back for interrogation!"

"Sir... what should we do with this female insect? The corpse of that sub-female looks like it's been torn apart; the culprit is very likely this female insect."

“I will take him back to the military. The Pruto Trading Building is likely involved in the trafficking of high-level female insects. I will take him for a mental power test.”

Eros leaned against a very sturdy shoulder, feeling dazed and unable to open his eyes.

[Run away.] The voice appeared again, so real, as if the Insect God was whispering in his ear.

O insect god, please tell poor Eros where he should run to?

Before the female insect completely fainted, she prayed in her heart. Although she did not know what the insect god was, some things seemed to be innate and bestowed by the god.

En'er looked down at the female insect he was holding in his arms and found her appearance very familiar. The faces of his former comrades kept overlapping with this female prostitute, and he couldn't find a single difference.

Her cold, emerald-green eyes looked at Eros's face, a rare hint of tenderness appearing in them.

When Eros woke up again, he was greeted by a white ceiling and the air was filled with the smell of disinfectant.

"Father, he's awake." A soft voice reached Eros's ears. The female insect followed the voice to find the one who spoke, only to find her head fixed to the bed.

!

The female insect suddenly opened her eyes wide, broke out in a cold sweat, and instinctively tried to curl up.

The terrifying memories made Eros's teeth chatter and his breathing tremble.

Several times, when he was sold to those male insects, his limbs were bound, he was electrocuted, stung, and whipped in various positions...

"Please, please, don't hit me..." Eros didn't see any insects, but he could smell the scent of several insects around him.

"I'm scared, scared... I'm afraid of pain..."

"Big bugs aren't afraid of pain." That soft, gentle voice sounded in his ear again: "If it hurts, I'll blow on it for you~"

Eros didn't know what "whoosh" was, and in his terror, he saw a tiny tentacle.

"No, Lord Kamehameha, I'm afraid of pain, I'm afraid of pain! Please, let me go!" If he could kneel, Eros would definitely kneel down before these insects right now and kowtow several times, begging them to let him go.

"Eros?"

Just as Eros was so gripped by fear that he was about to scare himself to death, a cold voice appeared above his head.

With its head fixed in place, Eros could see the female insect's beautiful yet calm eyes, as clear as an emerald lake.

Eros recognized the voice immediately; he suddenly remembered the conversation he had overheard before he lost consciousness.

This must be the officer in charge.

"Sir... I didn't do anything wrong, please don't hit me." Eros's bound hands gripped the blanket tightly and helplessly, his frightened eyes filled with pleading.

Just as Eros was about to burst into tears, a pair of warm hands touched his face: "Good boy, don't be afraid, you are now free."

"Freedom?" Eros's eyes were filled with bewildered ignorance. He only vaguely recognized the word "freedom," knowing that not a single insect in the basement of the Pluto Trading Building was free. "Freedom... what does that mean?"

"That means no more bugs will attack you anymore." Ener smiled slightly. "We collected your genes and tested your mental strength. The final result is that you are an A-grade female bug and have not registered your citizen information in the Empire."

"Where is your home? I can have your kin come and fetch you."

"I...I don't know." Fear still lingered in Eros's eyes. He tried to pull his neck away, but his head was stuck and he couldn't move.

“Your neck was damaged by the restraints. You need to let it heal before you can remove them.” Enel patiently handed Eros a cup with a straw to his lips.

"No... sir..." Eros felt flattered. Good heavens, why would an insect treat him as carefully as a male insect?

O Insect God, your poor Eros is clearly just a crippled female insect.

As the sweet, clear water entered Eros's mouth, he was so moved that tears welled up in his eyes. Good heavens, it was so sweet, and it was clean water. Such a precious thing was being given to him to drink.

Eros took a few sips but dared not drink any more. Although he still wanted to drink more, he worried that if he drank all the precious water, the officer in front of him might think he was too greedy.

Eros's eyes were already wet. In Eros's eyes, Enl's face was almost on par with, no, even above, the Insect God.

The insect god would not save poor Eros when he prayed, nor would he give him clean water, much less grant him "freedom".

"The Pluto Trading Building has been sealed off by the Imperial Army. We are currently verifying your identity. However, since you are an A-level female insect who has been persecuted by identity fraud and false charges, the Imperial government will provide you with a compensation payment. The Pluto Trading Building will also provide you with a compensation payment. These will be deposited into your account after you obtain a new resident card and star card."

As he spoke, En'er's voice gradually faded, tinged with regret: "But there are some things I need to tell you."

"The doctor examined you while you were unconscious."

Eros looked at Enel with almost pious eyes, and seeing a hint of regret and tenderness on his cold, hard face, Eros felt that whatever bad news he heard afterward would be worth it.

"Your reproductive cavity has been severely damaged, as have your insect wings."

Eros didn't show any signs of injury; instead, he flashed a bright smile: "So I have insect wings too. I thought only officers had those beautiful wings."

En'er spoke gently to the female insect on the hospital bed: "There's one more thing about your body. The doctor found that your sensitivity to pheromones is only five percent, and you've been diagnosed with pheromone perception disorder syndrome."

"What happens if you have that disease?" Eros asked Enel. "Will it hurt?"

"No." But it would be worse than death.

En'er felt great sympathy for this female insect who was completely ignorant of the outside world, and did not say the second half of his sentence: "You will know when you recover."

“You will have a very bright future, Evanson.” Enel was clearly taken aback when he said this, but he quickly recovered and apologized under Eros’s questioning gaze: “I have a deceased friend, and you look a lot like him.”

“It’s an honor to resemble your friend, sir,” Eros immediately replied.

“Just call me Enel, Eros. Your name is quite special.” Enel smiled slightly. “You know, my friend told me that ‘Eros’ was the name of a god of love on an ancient planet. It’s a very beautiful name.”

Eros's cheeks flushed slightly; he felt as if he had arrived in heaven. How could such a wonderful day have come to be?

Ener looked at the innocent and naive female insect on the hospital bed, told Eros to rest well, and then left the ward with his male insect offspring.

Eros was the only insect left in the ward.

The original Eros was just a tiny female insect with no past and no future, who only hoped to fall asleep or faint every day. Now, he can be treated, drink clean water, and no longer has to endure the abuse of male insect guests at night, allowing him to sleep peacefully.

"My God, is Eros dreaming?" the female insect with beautiful violet eyes exclaimed innocently.

If this is just a dream, that would be too cruel. He would rather sleep in this dream forever.

Eros stayed in the hospital for two days. On the third day, the doctor removed the instruments from his body and handed him a bill.

"Five...five thousand star coins!!" The female insect trembled as she counted the last three zeros with her claws. After counting several times, she realized her ignorance and stupidity. At the auction house of the Pruto Trading Building, her service at most earned the auction house a thousand star coins per session.

Eros is now penniless because he simply cannot afford the medical bills. He has no choice but to swallow his pride and use the military's external phone number, which he found on the hospital's public network, to search for Enl step by step.

When En'er arrived at the hospital, the purple-eyed female insect was standing restlessly in the hospital corridor. Upon seeing En'er, the poor little insect rushed towards him as if seeing its father, holding up the bill and stammering:

"I'm sorry, sir, I don't have any star coins to pay for the medical expenses. Can I borrow some from you? I promise I will pay you back. I will go out and find a job to repay you."

En'er gently rubbed Eros's drooping head: "I told you to just call me En'er from now on."

“Commander Enel,” Eros stammered, insisting on adding the word “commander.”

After paying the hospital fees, Enertieros took the little female insect back to his home in the fourth interstellar space: "If you can't remember where you used to live, then you can stay here with my insect cub for now."

“His name is Kam, and he’s a male insect offspring.” Enel pointed out the insect offspring, who was still dozing in the room, to Eros.

“I’m usually at the military headquarters and can’t take care of him. I’m worried that my little male son, Kam, isn’t getting the care he needs. So, Eros, I’d like to ask you to help take care of my male insect cub until he’s old enough to go to the male insect academy next year. I’ll pay you a salary during that time.”

Eros hurriedly waved his hand: "No salary needed. Commander Ener, you were willing to take me in and even paid my medical expenses. This is what I should do."

"Kam is very obedient, he won't bully you." Enl was very busy with his duties in the army. He handed the key to Eros and gave him some tips on raising a male baby before quickly leaving the house.

Eros gently pushed open the door and peeked at the tiny male sleeping in the sleep capsule.

The female insect looked at the tiny male offspring and felt an overwhelming sense of cuteness.

Female insects are naturally attracted to male insects. In Eros's eyes, even when Commander Enl's little male was sleeping, he was so cute that he was much cuter than the adult male insects he had ever seen.

Just as the female insect was patiently looking after the sleeping male offspring, the male offspring, who had been sleeping all along, curled up the corner of his mouth, revealing a short, white little tooth.
