Volume 1: Chapter 132 I will pledge my allegiance!

　　"Theresis."

　　The Demon King of the Sarkaz looked at his brother.

　　Around her, the little ones gathered.

　　“…”

　　The Regent remained silent.

　　He failed.

　　The demon king who should have been killed has been resurrected again.

　　But is she really Theresa?

　　Who knows if it's a trick of the bugs?

　　After all, the bugs have taken over the demon's abilities.

　　"Maybe we should have a talk?"

　　Theresa put her hands behind her back.

　　"There's nothing to talk about."

　　The Regent replied.

　　"I can't confirm whether you are Theresa."

　　He killed his own blood relatives with his own hands, and in order to prevent them from being resurrected by some strange Originium technique, his heart was completely crushed.

　　In the end, Theresa stood in front of him intact.

　　And it reappeared in a short time.

　　"I see."

　　The Demon Girl suddenly realized.

　　Then--

　　A black crown belonging to the Demon King appeared on her head.

　　After becoming a member of the Zerg, the crown belonging to the Demon King was still on her head, and she did not look for the next successor.

　　This means that the Crown still recognizes her as a member of the Sarkaz.

　　"Can you believe it now?"

　　Theresa smiled slightly.

　　“…”

　　Theresis looked at the black crown, and a look of astonishment flashed in his eyes.

　　How is that possible?

　　That is the genuine Demon King's crown.

　　As a member of the Sarkaz——he could feel it.

　　The devil cannot be counterfeited because the crown cannot be copied.

　　Even the Pardoners who have studied the Demon King for thousands of years cannot imitate another Demon King's crown.

　　But how is this possible?

　　Why?

　　Theresis couldn't understand.

　　It was like he couldn't understand why those bugs would obediently follow his sister's orders.

　　"Times have changed, Theresis."

　　The Zerg reappeared on the land of Terra——

　　This time, they won't leave.

　　After becoming a member of the Zerg, Theresa learned a lot of things.

　　Insect nests appeared on the seabed, in Ursus and even in Kazdel.

　　In the endless insect tides of the past, these insect nests would continuously hatch springtails to wipe out all life.

　　At this moment, there is an insect nest underground in Kazdel.

　　And it is an even larger insect nest.

　　The swarm's members aren't just springtails.

　　Not to mention——

　　Their master also descended upon the land of Kazdel.

　　This is definitely not a force that the Sarkaz can resist.

　　There is an old saying in Yan that goes - if you can't beat them, join them.

　　Under her control, the Zerg will not harm the Sarkaz who join it.

　　This means that Kazdel no longer needs to worry about sieges from other countries.

　　Her dream finally became possible.

　　"The Sarkaz can join the Zerg, and with the help of the Zerg, rebuild Kazdel, which belongs to the Sarkaz."

　　Theresa extended a hand.

　　“…”

　　Theresis looked at her sister.

　　Her smile is still so gentle.

　　But the regent did not respond.

　　He didn't know whether the Theresa in front of him was still the same Theresa.

　　"Theresis, I need your help, just like in the past."

　　The Demon Girl could sense the hesitation in her brother's heart.

　　She released Theresis from her confinement.

　　After the Regent regained his freedom——

　　He grabbed his sword immediately.

　　The blade stopped in front of the girl's neck.

　　Theresis looked at her--

　　No fear, no panic.

　　There is only tenderness and expectation.

　　With just a slight movement, he would chop off the head of the person in front of him.

　　So, should we do this?

　　He looked around—

　　Members of the Tower of Babel are treating the wounded.

　　Whether it is from the Tower of Babel or his subordinates.

　　And those bugs...are helping to transport the wounded.

　　This is a scene that has never been seen before.

　　It would have been absolutely impossible for the bugs in the past to do this.

　　They just devour everything.

　　"Where are you taking my soldiers?"

　　The wounded were taken underground.

　　"The Swarm will take care of their healing."

　　Theresa smiled slightly.

　　The Queens will use their healing fluids to heal the Sarkaz.

　　"…Take me to have a look."

　　Theresis took back the sword.

　　He has failed.

　　Even if Theresa was killed here, it would be useless.

　　"As you wish, brother."

　　The demon girl winked playfully.

　　“…”

　　Before the breakup, when he and Theresa were working together to build Kazdel, the girl would also call him that.

　　How long has it been since I last heard the word "brother"?

　　Theresis was a little dazed.

　　"Qui'saršinnag, can you bring Zerg over here?"

　　The demon girl waved her hand, signaling the pardoner girl to come over.

　　"Your Highness Theresa."

　　Qui'saršinnag led her god.

　　The girl looked at the group in front of her——

　　She was a little stunned.

　　The Demon King and the Regent did not continue to clash.

　　How long ago did this scene happen?

　　Qui'saršinnag had heard the story of the six heroes of the Sarkaz——

　　The protagonists are the brother and sister in front of us.

　　When the Terran coalition invaded Kazdel, it was Theresa and Theresis who stepped forward to regroup the Demon King's guards and led the Sarkaz to repel the coalition's invasion.

　　"Zerg, my brother and I want to go down and take a look. Can you be our guide?"

　　Theresa's eyebrows curved slightly as she looked at the pardoner girl and the little child she was holding.

　　Qui'saršinnag is still a very honest person.

　　This made her feel relieved.

　　If I am busy and cannot take care of Zerg, I will ask Qui'saršinnag to take care of him.

　　Although Zerg is the master of the bugs, his mind is too young.

　　As long as he senses no ill intentions, Zerg won't resist.

　　This makes it easy for bad women with no bottom line to take advantage of you.

　　"good!"

　　Zerg nodded vigorously.

　　“…”

　　Theresis looked at the tiny child.

　　He felt as if he too had been affected.

　　The being previously known as Zerg——

　　It is an indescribable monster and its appearance cannot be seen clearly.

　　And at this moment, standing in front of him was a little child.

　　Am I crazy?

　　The Regent was silent.

　　"Brother, this is the man who saved me - Zerg."

　　Theresa said so.

　　"I thought I was going to die, but Zerg managed to bring me back."

　　The Demon Girl seemed to be complaining.

　　"……Feel sorry."

　　The Regent was silent for a long time and only said this one sentence.

　　"It's not my brother's fault."

　　Theresa said as she followed the Little Lord with her brother.

　　Theresis was already shaken.

　　"After all, you had your position at that time, and I had mine."

　　The Demon Girl did not blame him.

　　"But I hope we can get back together later - just like we used to."

　　Theresa said so.

　　"…I need to think about this."

　　Theresis wanted to see what happened to his soldiers.

　　His student Manfred was also sent down by Ascalon and Kal'tsit.

　　"Of course, I await your answer, brother."

　　Walking in the underground passage, the Demon Girl was in a good mood.

　　“…”

　　Theresis saw the scene underground -

　　Huge biological structures are leaping underground.

　　The purple egg fluttered and then broke open.

　　More bugs were born.

　　Moreover, it is a brand new bug.

　　"Infected bugs!"

　　Zerg looked at the newly born Zerg with sparkling eyes.

　　This is the first infected worm born on Terra, and it is a landmark step for the Zerg!

　　In this way, more toxin eaters can be mutated and more lives can join the swarm!

　　“…”

　　Theresa looked at the fat bug with two small black dots for eyes, and her expression became subtle.

　　Although I know that the style of the insect swarm is strange——

　　But the style of the infected insects is a bit too abstract.

　　“Puff, puff, puff, puff!”

　　The infected bug stuck out its tongue.

　　A tentacle stretched out from behind its head, inserted itself into a small cart, and rubbed against the ground.

　　It's like playing with a toy.

　　“…”

　　The scene Theresis saw was completely different.

　　He saw a huge, somewhat ugly and terrifying insect.

　　The tentacles extending from the back of its head were inserted into a chariot that looked like it was infected.

　　The driver of the chariot is a mutant humanoid with tentacles.

　　Then his hand was held.

　　"Brother, take another look."

　　The Demon Girl could sense that her brother's emotions were fluctuating violently.

　　She understood it in her heart.

　　“…”

　　This time, Theresis saw a completely different style of painting.

　　It's a very abstract style of painting.

　　The scary bug I saw earlier turned into a big fat bug.

　　And that chariot... turned into a toy car and was being played with by the big fat bug.

　　"Theresa, in your eyes, this is what they look like?"

　　Theresis understood everything.

　　No wonder.

　　If I hadn't seen it with my own eyes -

　　Who would associate these abstract creatures with scary bugs?

　　Then a question arises -

　　What do these bugs look like?

　　Which one is what they really look like?

　　"I don't know what you saw before, brother, but in my eyes, they looked like this."

　　Theresa touched the springtail that jumped to her feet, then watched it run away with its tongue hanging out.

　　These little guys are so cute.

　　“…”

　　Theresis couldn't understand.

　　"Teacher, why are you here?"

　　The voices of his students rang out.

　　The Regent turned around and saw that Manfred had some wounds deep enough to see the bones.

　　But fortunately, it has not reached a life-threatening level - if it can receive timely treatment.

　　Only next to him stood a sausage-headed creature.

　　"what is it?"

　　the Regent inquired.

　　"The Queen of Insects, the one in charge of healing within the insect swarm."

　　Theresa said with a smile

　　Although I don't know how the Queen of Insects will treat the wounded, I don't think it's unacceptable...

　　She saw the worm and pulled out a tray.

　　"vomit!"

　　Then a lump of purple viscous liquid was spit out.

　　“…”

　　The demon girl's face froze.

　　"Guga!"

　　The Queen of Insects handed over the tray.

　　“…”

　　The young Sarkaz took the tray somewhat stiffly.

　　How to treat it?

　　Should I let him eat it?

　　"…Manfred, just eat it."

　　Theresa was silent for a few seconds before speaking.

　　"… Your Highness Theresa, are you sure?"

　　Even Manfred found it hard to accept.

　　Can this... vomit really heal his injuries?

　　"Sure."

　　Theresa's smile was a little stiff.

　　In the future, it would be better to decorate the Queen Insect's healing fluid into a high-tech medicine.

　　and--

　　It must be kept absolutely confidential.

　　After all, not everyone has the courage to swallow a pile of vomit.

　　Besides, she must not get hurt in the future!

　　The Demon Girl made up her mind.

　　The Queen treats all injured swarm members equally—

　　Even if she was injured, the treatment was to be filled with purple puffs.

　　Theresa felt that she would be traumatized.

　　"Manfred, give me that tray."

　　Theresis spoke up.

　　He was also injured, so now was a good time to test it out.

　　"...Yes, teacher."

　　The young Sarkaz handed over a tray filled with sticky liquid.

　　“Brother, you…”

　　Theresa looked at Theresis.

　　"Gulp."

　　The Regent ingested the dish of sticky liquid without hesitation.

　　He is responsible for his own people.

　　Even after seeing the production process of the viscous liquid, Theresis did not resist at all.

　　“…”

　　He put down the tray in his hand silently.

　　Theresis looked at the wound on his arm——

　　A tickling sensation may be detected.

　　He knew what this meant—

　　The wound has begun to heal, so it itches.

　　The effect... was far better than most of the treatments he had ever used.

　　This can save the lives of many Sarkaz.

　　In Kazdel, medicines are also precious commodities.

　　Not every Sarkaz has the money to afford it.

　　Most of the time -

　　Some dirty bandages are all that's left.

　　But a creature called the Queen looks like it could mass-produce the powerful healing substance.

　　He saw the Queen of Worms take out a second tray and then vomited up another pile.

　　"That's all right, Manfred."

　　The young Sarkaz followed his teacher's example and swallowed the vomit.

　　"Teacher, its effect..."

　　It is a therapeutic material that can be used as a strategic reserve.

　　Manfred was shocked.

　　"I know."

　　Theresis looked at his sister.

　　He could be sure that his soldiers would receive adequate treatment.

　　"Brother, can you give your answer now?"

　　The Demon Girl extended her hand.

　　“…”

　　Theresis was silent.

　　Then--

　　He held the devil's hand.

　　"Theresa, give me another reason."

　　The Sarkaz war hero said so.

　　If he chose his sister, could his sister's path allow Kazdel and the Sarkaz to go further?

　　"Of course, my brother, please witness the power of the Swarm."

　　The girl activated her power.

　　The Demon King can make the Sarkaz who follow him see beautiful visions.

　　And at this moment, she let Theresis see the true strength of the Zerg.

　　“…”

　　Theresis knew a fact——

　　The current insect nest is just a newly built insect nest.

　　But it has also put his team into a tough fight, and even if they try to break out, there is a high probability that they will be wiped out.

　　The longer developed hives have hatched countless swarms of insects with more species.

　　A Mutalisk flying in the sky.

　　There are Zerglings, Banelings, and Cockroaches running on the ground.

　　The Hydralisk in the rear is responsible for projecting firepower.

　　And this insect nest... is producing war weapons with more powerful firepower and infected insects with more bizarre abilities.

　　However, this is not the most threatening thing——

　　The master of the swarm is also here.

　　It's that little child.

　　It is a powerful existence that is superior to the Demon King.

　　Theresis opened her eyes.

　　He has made his choice.

　　The swarm is willing to embrace all creatures that join, while creatures that are unwilling to join will become nutrients for the expansion of the swarm.

　　Kazdel and the Sarkaz are absolutely unstoppable.

　　And Theresa——

　　The Sarkaz have already secured a seat within the Zerg.

　　So there is only one answer -

　　He will pledge allegiance!
