EROS [Zerg]

"A leave of absence?" Eros was somewhat surprised. "I thought I would be expelled."

“Although you are currently on leave of absence and can retain your student status, you will still be expelled if you are unable to return to school after three years.” Ener transmitted some completed formalities to Eros via the terminal.

"Don't be too discouraged. Although you've lost an arm, it's not impossible for the Zerg to grow another one given their current level of technology."

“If it could grow back, that would be wonderful.” Eros shook his empty right arm and said in a light tone, “After all, I’m not quite used to the feeling of not having a right claw.”

“Branham, you should still remember him, right? You’ve met him before. He’s been in charge of new drugs in the military. Limb regeneration treatment is the subject he’s currently researching. I heard that they recently made some breakthroughs in their research and are now conducting preliminary experiments. I can take you to talk to him.”

"Should we go to the military headquarters again?"

"Of course, it's a rare opportunity. Every year, the military has tens of thousands of female soldiers wounded. Once the treatment plan for limb regeneration is proven in experiments to be suitable for clinical treatment, such opportunities will be fiercely contested. We can only get a treatment slot by relying on our connection with Berlanham before they finalize the treatment plan."

Ener looked down at the insect cub in his arms: "Kam, if Eros's arm could grow back, would you be happy for him?"

"Ah, can a broken arm grow back?" Kam looked up at Enl blankly, then turned to look at Eros, grinning, "Anyway, as long as Eros is happy, I'll be happy for him too."

Eros bent down and rubbed Kam's round little belly, smiling at the little boy: "Thank you, Kam."

"Kamo will always stand by Eros's side!"

"Look at this pathetic little thing, already so bewitched by female insects at such a young age. When he grows up, he'll be led by the nose." Ener pinched Kam's cheek, his smile unchanged as he looked at the shy Kam and the stunned Eros.

Enr did not return to the military headquarters this time, but stayed at home overnight.

This is a very rare occurrence.

Eros thought that perhaps Enel spent more time in hotels than at home.

There weren't many rooms in the house, and Ener and Eros slept in the same room.

Camus looked at his father and then at Eros, itching to beg his father to allow him to sleep between them.

En'er didn't give him that chance, "The baby insects should sleep in the baby insect's sleep chamber, otherwise they won't grow tall."

After saying that, Ener gestured with his paw to his waist: "You don't want to become a short male insect, do you? Like your male father."

Kam looked at Enel in surprise: "My male father is only that tall?!" He had never seen his male father since he could remember. He only thought that his female father was particularly tall, so his male father should not be too short either.

When Kama was studying at the Male Insect Academy, he heard his teacher say that the height of the male and female fathers would affect the height of their offspring.

Ellie the young male is a very tall little male, supposedly because both his female and male fathers are very tall, especially his male father, Grand Duke Cavenor, who is taller than most sub-female males.

Kamo originally thought that since his female parent was so tall, as her offspring, he would definitely not grow very short in the future.

But if your father is extremely short, will you also grow up to be extremely short?

Kam's bright green eyes widened in surprise. He looked at the position his father was gesturing to, and then at the difference between that position and Eros's height. How come it only reached Eros's waist?

Kamo couldn't even imagine how inferior he would feel standing next to Eros if he could only grow to that height.

"I want to grow tall! Very tall!" Kamu stood on tiptoe, raised his paws above his head, and reached upwards with all his might.

Eros found the little boy's slightly clumsy movements amusing, so he bent down and lifted Kam up completely, saying, "Is it good that you're so tall?"

"it is good."

"Then go to the egg-shaped capsule and get some sleep, okay?"

"Mmm!" Kam felt his vision suddenly broaden, and he didn't expect that growing taller would be so good. He immediately clapped his paws and agreed.

After settling Camus in, Eros went back to Enel's room.

When Eros opened the door, Enel had already changed into his pajamas and was sitting at his desk looking at the information on his terminal.

Eros wanted to say something, but after struggling with his thoughts, he didn't open his mouth. He changed his clothes, sat on the bed, and told Enel about what had happened during the day.

"You want to start a toy company, and you're looking for a partner, or is it Lady Jessica?" Enel was somewhat surprised when he heard the news, but quickly lowered his head again: "Have you mentioned knowing anything about Lady Jessica? Like her early experiences?"

“Yes,” Eros nodded. “I had inquired about it beforehand.”

"You also know that Lady Jessica dislikes female insects? The Fourth Galaxy Male Insect Protection Association has put a lot of effort into his marriage, but this lady would rather regularly donate her genes than marry a female insect."

Eros nodded. He had done a lot of work before his visit in order to ensure a successful meeting with Lady Jessica.

This includes, but is not limited to, visiting many toy companies to learn about toys, intentionally or unintentionally mentioning a male insect toy designer to toy company employees, and obtaining some information from them.

After piecing together these pieces of information, Eros roughly understood what kind of insect Lady Jessica was.

Male insects, who have been betrayed in their careers by their unmarried partners, despise the arrogant and subservient attitude of female insects in their careers.

After conducting the most basic research, Eros decided to do the opposite when meeting with the male insects. In business, he pretended to be a novice who was not completely ignorant of the theory but was overly confident and idealistic, but during the conversation, he did not fawn over the male insects.

There's also the carefully designed image and the deliberate surprise shown when entering to lower the male's guard.

Eros knew he was good at playing the innocent.

“It’s good that the female insect has her own career. If you need any help, you can let me know.” Enel turned off the screen projected by the terminal, walked up to Eros, and patted him on the shoulder: “Go to sleep.”

The room lights were turned off, and Eros lay on the inner side of the bed, feeling the warmth of Commander Ener beside him. He was having trouble sleeping.

Insomnia causes his worm nucleus to start having wild thoughts.

He remembered that night when the little boy sneaked into his room, snuggled into his arms, and slipped his paws inside his clothes…

Although he did not agree, he also did not seriously stop it. If the male insect protection association found out, this behavior would be a clear case of deliberate seduction.

Although he didn't have any improper thoughts about Kam, he had only said some ambiguous things to deal with Xiao Xiongzi in the past, which caused Xiao Xiongzi to misunderstand. He also found that such misunderstandings could bring him some benefits, so he didn't explain.

Eros doesn't actually care about the Male Insect Protection Association. It's as if his past excessive fear has made him immune to their fear, or even somewhat numb to it.

But now lying next to him was Kam's biological father and mother. Eros couldn't even imagine how disappointed Commander Enl would be if he knew what he had done.

Eros began to condemn himself in his heart, feeling increasingly guilty, and couldn't help but sigh softly.

"Eros, what were you trying to say to me just now?"

In the darkness, I heard Commander En'er's cold voice beside me.
