Daily News: Insect Girls' Heavy Dependence

The three major cocoons were successfully activated.

The power contained within his body at this moment was clearly terrifying.

Richard was overjoyed at the confirmation of the existence of the soul, yet he was also so confused that he had no motivation.

It's like marrying hundreds of lolis, full of hope for the future, yet not knowing where to start.

The three women in the alchemist's shop were too shocked to speak. How could they have survived?

Yekalin could still feel Richard's strong, pounding heartbeat.

Govi also realized what was happening and threw a large bag of beef jerky to the reckless guy.

"Thank you... I don't want to eat anything right now."

However, an untimely voice suddenly rang out.

Those were the fourth-order sound-transmitting conch shells that Richard was hanging on his waist.

An aged yet somber voice rang out:

"Ekalin August! What are you thinking? You've found a royal man? Aren't you a member of the August family?"

Clearly, the elders of the August family had already learned of Richard's arrogant demand that they come to the world beyond the walls...

Let's get this going!

Richard suddenly stood up from Yekaterin's arms.

He's found something to do now!

If one desires to pursue Astelle's soul... something so ethereal and elusive, then power and wealth are indispensable!

These old fogies of the August family are exactly the best primary targets!

"What's the matter?" Richard picked up the fourth-tier sound-transmitting conch beetle and walked out of the shop.

Glolo still has to deal with the fourth-tier Thousand Refinement Myriad Transformation Insects! She shouldn't let the squabbles and negotiations between nobles affect her...

The elder of the August family had clearly deduced it from Richard's young male voice. The one who connected to the conch worm was the royal man Yekaterin had sought out.

"A royal's son?"

"Yes!" Richard didn't mind having an extra layer of disguise.

……

After a brief moment of thought, the aged voice chose to maintain the appearance of an old man:

"Which prince's son are you?"

Richard clearly didn't want to talk to the other party any longer:

"Get straight to the point, stop with the nonsense! What do you want with Yekaterin?"

Richard wouldn't dare fabricate such a self-introduction; it would be too easy to give himself away!

The old man suppressed his outburst; after all, a person nearing death still possessed some self-control.

"See you at the Giant Wall the day after tomorrow..."

"Old man, who do you think you are? Do you really think you're in control? I gave you the chance to come to Stormwind only because of the Duke of Birmingham! If you hadn't come, you could have prepared for the royal family's purge!"

A long silence...

The old man's voice had turned icy cold to the lowest point:

"Birmingham's funeral... the final two days of vigil. If Yekaterin still acknowledges her father, then let her come to the inner world!"

The sound-transmitting snail worms returned to complete silence.

Richard knew that the other side had completely cut off the connection.

He naturally understood the old man's scheme. To lure Yekaterin to the inner world... that place was not like Stormwind City, where Yekaterin had the final say.

As long as Yekaterin shows up in the August family within the inner world, whether she stays or leaves... it probably depends on the will of those old fogies.

From the third-order sound-transmitting conch shell around her neck, Yekarin's voice rang out: "Come with me..."

"it is good."

Richard returned to the alchemist's shop.

Yekarin straightened her hair:

"It's alright, I was planning to go on the last day anyway. It has nothing to do with your attitude just now."

Richard nodded.

I forced myself to stop thinking about those chaotic thoughts.

Even if you are overwhelmed with grief, continuing to wallow in despair is not the solution...

Richard just wanted to get a good night's sleep, but no matter how hard he tried, he couldn't fall asleep.

As the morning sun shines once more upon Stormwind, the stars rise as usual, and the workshops within Stormwind begin their new operations.

Gossy yawned and went downstairs to find Richard, who hadn't slept all night.

Richard seemed to be in good spirits; he should have recovered somewhat after a whole night of simmering. At least, that's how Govy saw it.

Govy tossed Richard a cocoon, inside which was a small mushroom with red, purple, yellow, and blue patterns...

Fourth tier! A thousand-fold refined insect cocoon!

Richard had been longing for the top-tier bugs since his first entry into the Mushroom Forest... and now he's obtained them in this way.

Govye was also quite dazed when she recalled it:

"The Dream Worms couldn't be extracted because they were parasitizing the brain. Asdale... Glolo sealed them for you with Frost Demon Worms. Take them back to the Charlemagne family when you're done..."

Richard opened his mouth towards Goldie and said in a low, husky voice, "Thanks."

"Alright, there's no need for thanks between us. I'll come find you once I break through to the fourth rank..." Govi ​​clearly didn't know the specific cause of Asdale's death, nor did she need to know.

Unusually, Yekaterin wasn't jealous. She patted Richard on the shoulder, indicating it was time to leave.

Silver wings sprouted and unfolded...

"What are you doing?"

Yekalin looked puzzled.

Richard also looked puzzled:

"Let's go to the giant wall. I'll fly you there now, it'll be there in an hour, right?"

Richard, that guy! Aside from looking like a young nobleman, he has absolutely no idea about the social etiquette of aristocratic social interactions—the kind that involves intimidation, showing off, and humiliation… He's a complete novice in many ways!

The Duchess couldn't help but feel helpless for her man:

"How could it be just the two of us going?"

"That's true. I'll organize the city's defense forces. How many Tier 3 knights are you planning to take?"

"..." Yekaterin: "Are you going to cause a scene in front of my father?"

"Aren't we going to kill all those old geezers?"

Richard has not only inherited Asdale's cocoon, but has also learned her ways of doing things.

Yekalin didn't know how to teach this guy: "Of course not!"

……

At the fountain square.

Yekaterin addressed the Stormwind administrators, explaining everything that would be done after her departure, including the repairs to Nightsurge Hold…

And for a duchess like her to travel, especially to attend her father's funeral... it's naturally not a simple matter!

The once empty square is now filled with a crowd of two thousand people.

Many horses, each over three meters long, were pulling dozens of carriages of various sizes.

Humans can implant insects, so other organisms can too. Richard looked around and spotted two gleaming white horses in the convoy.

Leaving aside the magnificent, flowing, shimmering mane of the white horses, what is most striking is that they have eight hooves.

Yekaterin was clearly speechless at Richard's obvious interest in horses:

"Stop looking, get in the car! I really regret bringing such an ignorant guy like you along."

"Don't be angry, you know that already..."

Yekalin certainly knew what Richard was talking about. Richard had been autistic and mentally challenged for twenty years in the Charlemagne family, so it was normal for him to be ignorant.

Yekaterin simply hadn't expected this:

Asdale said that Richard's soul went to Earth or something, and then she talked about the Time Worms or something.

Richard, this guy, is just like the protagonist in those romance novels. He has strange experiences and abilities...

But right now, it's really not a good time to think about anything in detail.

Yekaterin wasn't entirely unable to accept it; perhaps Richard had some secret he hadn't told her.

If he wanted to tell me, he would definitely be eager to show off to me; there's no need to forcefully pry.

Yekalin decided to put those thoughts aside for the moment:

Richard was pulled onto an exceptionally ornately decorated carriage...
