Chapter 79

Chapter 79

No wonder the Young Master had been alternating in behavior lately.

It turned out that there were indeed two people, constantly switching before his eyes!

The adjutant gaped, alternately looking at Lu Danjiao and the Young Master.

"Wait, what?"

Who was the real Young Master?

One was the Young Master, but who was the other person?

The adjutant looked at the one wearing sunglasses and a hat, "You must be the Young Master, right? So—"

"Who are you, then?" The gaze shifted to the spherical Danjiao.

Lu Danjiao spread his hands, "It's quite a long story."

The young prince nodded. "It is indeed a long story."

The two youngsters exchanged glances and smiled.

The aide was utterly confused. "? ? ?"

The aide protested, "It's a long story, so that's why you didn't tell me?"

Pang Qiu and Danjiao shared a look, with the young prince assuring Danjiao that the aide wasn't someone who would harm them. Only then did they decide to explain.

Considering the aide's comprehension, they started from the very beginning – the creation of the world by Pan Gu.

After a long and intricate explanation, the aide's brain felt like it had shrunk.

The aide had absorbed an immense amount of information in a short time, as if they had ingested a compressed file whole.

"So, both of you are the offspring of Fiery Pepper and His Majesty? Born at the same time, twins!"

The aide panted, feeling their heart race.

Indeed, the two of them bore an uncanny resemblance.

If not for the advanced technology involved, no one would doubt their familial ties.

Especially when Lu Danjiao appeared; he merely thought that the young prince was in a foul mood and never questioned his identity.

With his arms crossed, Lu Danjiao responded, "Indeed."

The adjutant massaged his temples. "So Spicy Chili actually gave birth to twins?"

The young prince asked, "Spicy Chili?"

Lu Danjiao was shocked. "Dad gave birth?"

Both youngsters expressed their confusion with a question.

The adjutant was taken aback. "Uh... yes."

Observing their sovereign, does he look like someone capable of bearing children? It's more likely that the child would be suspended to amuse him.

Lu Danjiao clenched his fists. "But Father once said that it was absolutely impossible for him to bear a child. Father mentioned that on their planet, males are incapable of giving birth."

The officer was suddenly bombarded with painful memories from the past.

Officer: "Yes, the Queen does lack some common knowledge."

Not to mention, he was once exiled to Asmo Planet to grow potatoes due to the pregnancy incident.

Past memories are best left untouched.

Today, Lu Danjiao's first realization: Father was actually Mother.

No wonder he found it odd referring to His Majesty the Devil as Mother. With Father's gentle nature, he should have been the one to take on that role.

Danjiao let out a peculiar sigh of relief, "Thankfully, I was born from Father's womb."

It's truly fortunate that he isn't a devil.

The young prince was unusually curious: "Why is Lu Wei's father called Fiery Pepper? Does it mean he's very fierce?"

The adjutant wiped his sweat: "Well, it has to do with some of his heroic deeds—"

Including but not limited to, replying back to scolding, publicly beating up the king, and embedding a frying pan two centimeters into a wall.

The adjutant spoke vaguely: "He's... somewhat fierce."

The young prince transferred the descriptions of the queen's rumors onto Lu Wei.

The queen he knew was an exceptionally unconventional person.

—In that aspect, Lu Wei did match the description.

The young prince said, "But I think Father Lu Wei is very gentle."

Lu Danjiao agreed: "Dad might scold kids, but he's actually really nice."

The adjutant could only respond with silence.

Struggling to find the right words, they hesitated, wanting to speak yet holding back.

"..." Were they victims of manipulation? In the entire galaxy, which omega would behave like this?

The aide cleared his throat. "Prince usually spends more time with His Majesty. Compared to anyone else, even that person would seem gentle in His Majesty's presence. Perhaps that's why he perceives the Queen as gentle."

Lu Danjiao raised his hand. "What about me?"

Aide: "..." He couldn't come up with an explanation for this.

These two were hopeless, undeniably the children of Their Majesty.

Aside from the Emperor, no one would consider a hot-tempered person gentle or someone who scolds as if cooing.

From this, it was clear that the three of them were indeed related by blood.

The aide gave them a thumbs up. "There's no doubt you two are the Emperor's twins. I confirm it."

The young prince lifted his eyelids. "Hm?"

Lu Danjiao: "What?!"

The adjutant observed the two children, noticing the stark contrast in their personalities, each resembling their respective fathers.

The one with Lu Wei was more like him, while the one with His Majesty was a reflection of the king himself.

The adjutant found it all quite intriguing: "Has His Majesty been informed?"

The mention of this made Lu Danjiao want to bite someone!

"He knew all along! But he didn't say anything, just played games with us."

Adjutant: "That does sound like something His Majesty would do."

Lu Danjiao sized up the adjutant, quietly assessing if they were also part of the Anti-Demon Alliance.

The young prince, on the other hand, seemed deep in thought.

After a moment's pause, the adjutant couldn't help but marvel, "Spicy Chili really did give birth to twins."

In the vast expanse of space, fertility rates were particularly low, and their planet was among the most severely affected regions. For ordinary families, even with active efforts to conceive, it was common not to have children by middle age.

Yet, His Majesty, who was notoriously difficult to sire offspring, had now been blessed with twins.

The birth of Young Master had already shaken Emperor Star; if it were now revealed that there were actually two, it would undoubtedly be a colossal sensation.

Both babies gazed at him with their beautiful, clear eyes.

Only their facial features resembled a fiery chili pepper.

The aide marveled at how incredibly alike the two infants were.

He dared not imagine how ecstatic Blue Star would be upon hearing the news.

"Blue Star will definitely be overjoyed, especially your great-grandfather. When Young Master was born, he seemed ten years younger."

Lu Danjiao inquired curiously, "Who's he?"

The aide explained, "He's from the Emperor's home planet, another world with low fertility rates. Young Master is essentially the first descendant they've seen in nearly a century."

Lu Danjiao propped his cheek on one hand, "Is it really that difficult to give birth?"

The adjutant replied, "It's incredibly challenging."

The adjutant continued, "The birth rate on Blue Star is comparable to Emperor Star's. Their genes are too strong, leading to significantly reduced fertility. The more powerful the genes, the harder it is for them to be passed on, let alone on a top-tier combat planet like this."

Danjiao now had a glimpse into part of his background and immediately understood why he hadn't noticed a lack of younglings when they were on Wu Star.

Lu Danjiao gasped, "Then how did Huo Nian and I come into existence?"

The adjutant gave a thumbs up, "That's why your births were major news that shook the entire galaxy. Blue Star might have had a continuous ten-day feast in celebration."

---

The live broadcast of the Youngling Invention Grand Competition began.

Far away on Emperor Star, Lu Wei was getting restless.

These past few days, apart from being flipped over like a lazy fish in his small room, he spent his time playing games.

Idle enough to sprout grass.

Seizing the opportunity while the Canine Sovereign suddenly felt in a better mood, the Earthling began to subtly hint, "Don't you feel a bit bored lately?"

The Canine Sovereign lay beside him, his eyes still closed, "Not really."

Lu Wei pressed on with his revelation, "I could really use some entertainment, like Star Network programs or mass live streams."

The Canine Sovereign responded casually, "Oh, I see."

Lu Wei continued, "Especially when there's a competition with many young ones participating, it becomes much more interesting."

Yan Kingdom's map was so brief.

The Canine Sovereign slowly opened his eyes, revealing dark pupils, "Want to watch?"

The Earthling nodded modestly, "After all, they're your offspring. Aren't you curious about what rank your cub can achieve in the finals?"

The Canine Sovereign looked at him expressionlessly.

Lu Wei: "..."

Well, he knew that the other party wasn't curious at all.

But Lu Wei was eagerly anticipating it with a restless heart: "Danjiao has worked hard to get to where he is today, and the kid is pretty smart. Who knows, he might even rank high."

The Dog Emperor was displeased: "It's all inherited."

Lu Wei chuckled.

Fortunately, his brother Danjiao had been taught to be upright and cheerful by him. If he were like the Dog Emperor, things would likely not have turned out well.

Speaking of which, could the child the Dog Emperor had raised...?

"Alright, alright, it's due to inherited intelligence. Can I watch now?" Lu Wei smoothly coaxed.

The Dog Emperor narrowed his eyes and stared at him: "That's not what you're thinking."

Lu Wei: Pfft.

"Danjiao's brilliance, if not 90% attributed to him, is at least 80%," said Lu Wei, raising his fist. "A parent shouldn't miss out on their child's once-in-a-lifetime memories."

The Dog Emperor snorted, clearly not sharing the same sentiment.

"I still remember when you addressed him as 'brother'," Lu Wei remarked.

He knew this guy couldn't stay normal for more than two minutes. "So what if I did?"

The Dog Emperor commanded, "Call me the same."

"Get lost."

Lu Wei almost kicked out in response.

The Dog Emperor pressed down on his knee. "Do you still recall what you used to call me?"

The Dog Emperor's strength was extraordinary; with just a light press, Lu Wei's legs became immobile.

Lu Wei bared his teeth, "I'll call you... ahem, Your Majesty."

The Canine Emperor lifted an eyebrow, "You didn't address me like that before."

Lu Wei: ???

Not so? Then why did this title roll off his tongue so effortlessly, as if it were ingrained in his DNA?

"What else should I call you?"

Taking advantage of the situation, the Canine Emperor placed a hand on Lu Wei's knee, causing the human's thigh to tingle and making him chuckle involuntarily from the sensation.

"Think harder."

Lu Wei pondered for a moment.

His previous self was still him; it was impossible for him to come up with some shamelessly intimate nickname.

He could only use terms like 'you', 'hey', or 'idiot'.

The Earthling pondered, meeting the slightly anticipatory expression of the Canine Sovereign...

Certainly not that.

Lu Wei ventured a guess, "C-Could it be calling each other by our nicknames?"

The thought made the Earthling feel a bit nauseous.

The Canine Sovereign lifted his gaze to look at him, "No."

There was already an indication of impending madness in his tone.

Lu Wei: "Ah—then it's Huo Jin directly."

His Majesty the Dog pinched his chin in dissatisfaction. "Not that."

Damn it.

Who could have guessed?

The Dog Emperor spoke with a chilly tone, "Hmph."

Lu Wei: "......."

He sighed inwardly. Big Brother was being melodramatic again.

If he made this guy upset, there was no way he'd get to watch his beloved Danjiao's match.

The Earthling gasped, "It's not something disgusting, right, baby?"

Ugh.

The Dog Emperor found the term of endearment slightly more palatable, but still replied, "No."

Lu Wei gritted his teeth.

Tsk.

According to the usual script, it was about time for the "you don't love me if you forget this" routine.

Indeed, as he hesitated for a moment longer, the expression on His Majesty the Dog's face began to darken.

"A complete blank?" The corners of His Majesty's mouth twitched. "Yet you still know how to call others 'brother'."

His tone was filled with sarcasm, even in everyday conversation.

Lu Wei was on the verge of tolerance. "I call you 'kid,' yet you keep saying 'others, others.' Didn't we create you together?"

His Majesty's eyes were dark and twisted. "Other than me, it's all 'others.'"

6

You think you're some kind of Heavenly King, don't you?

The corner of Lu Wei's mouth twitched, barely holding back his urge to strike.

He restrained himself several times.

His Majesty the Dog laid his head on Lu Wei's abdomen: "To me, there's only you and everyone else. Even if you were to kill someone, I'd still help you dispose of the body and continue loving you."

"You can't push me behind them once we have children."

Again.

Lu Wei realized that he was truly in deep trouble.

Such distorted thoughts, such an abstract language... Why did he feel a strange sense of happiness, a bizarre sweetness within his heart?

Damn it.

Who else would commit murder besides you?

Lu Wei sighed and reached out to rub his head. "When did I ever put you behind my children?"

The Canine Majesty promptly replied, "Just now, at 11:55 AM yesterday noon, and the time before that—"

"Damn it, I get it."

The mature Earthling interrupted him, "You even remember the exact minutes. Damn."

Isn't this sheer madness?

"I remember everything about you."

His Majesty the Dog lay on his stomach, his eyes pressed against Lu Wei's abdomen, and his fluttering eyelashes tickled Lu Wei softly.

Romantic, isn't it? But then the dog followed up with, "Unlike you, who forgets so easily. If I were to dig out this brain of yours and sell it on the black market, it would still be worth its original price."

One couldn't expect pearls from a dog's mouth.

Lu Wei: "..."

Lu Wei patted his head. "Was the promise I made to you before this?"

His Majesty the Dog inherited his ancestors' temper and replied lazily, "Think for yourself."

Lu Wei grumbled, "Oh, behave. I don't want to think about it at all."

In reality, he wasn't angry at all.

Who asked you to love me?

Despite his eccentricity, harsh words, sarcastic tone, and enigmatic demeanor...

For some inexplicable reason, the person lying beneath him visibly stiffened after he spoke those words.

Lu Wei: ?

Next, His Majesty the Dog sat up.

Staring at him with eyes glowing green, like a wolf eyeing its prey.

Lu Wei blinked. "What's going on?"

His Majesty already had a hand pressing on his knee, capable of rendering him completely submissive with just a little more force, leaving him in a vulnerable position.

An unfamiliar scent lingered between the two of them.

It was reminiscent of the aroma that had emerged during their previous intimate encounters.

Well, let me tell you, just like last time, that thing immediately stiffened and pressed against his leg.

Lu Wei: Goodness...

Alarms went off in the minds of Earthlings.

Because at times like these, memories became more vivid. Last time, it seemed to have happened suddenly after he said something as well.

What was it again?

"Sweetheart."

No way, buddy.

Did they used to call each other such intimate terms?

Soon, Lu Wei had no room left to feel awkward.

He was being pressed and maneuvered in every possible direction, front and back, left and right, inside and out, up and down.

Amidst Lu Wei's grimace, he couldn't help but think:

The term "obedient" is such a flawed expression, akin to their safe word in the midst of their intimate moments; uttering it is like opening Pandora's box of taboos.

Well, damn.

Observing Pang Qiu's plans being foiled once more.
