Chapter 55: Reward [Wien, 65%]…
“He’s a monster.” Kano pushed the file towards He Yue.
He Yue opened the file. The first page was a completely unserious ID photo with a wide grin. Beside it was basic information, the ID number handwritten as “S071”.
“Gene editing, hyperimmunity, cell regeneration…”
He Yue read the bolded subheadings on the details page one by one.
“Since you’ve already won him through the auction house’s requirements, I think you should know everything about him.” Kano’s expression was grave. “To be precise, he’s… an artificial being. I don’t want you to be in danger, especially with this monster who could go berserk at any moment. He’s immune to male insect pheromones, you have no way to suppress him.”
He Yue closed the file and asked, “Then how did you persuade him to be a killing tool in your organization?”
“The only restriction he has is that he needs the blood from a male insect’s gland to stay sane before bonding. After bonding, what he needs will change from gland blood to his Master’s semen.”
“How interesting. Is this your personal hobby, creator?” He Yue’s index finger tapped rhythmically on the table, his teasing question ending with a playful lilt.
Kano laughed self-deprecatingly and shook his head. “We trained him day after day, round after round. His body is a finished product, he doesn’t need much conditioning to satisfy your needs. In the final test, he got the best score, whether it was adapting to various tools or reacting, he could handle it all. He could fetch an absolutely high price at auction, a rare find.”
“But you didn’t sell him in the end, instead you threw him into your brother’s organization, turning him from a sex toy into an assassin.”
“Yes…” Kano was lost in distant memories, his gaze unfocused. “Of all the test subjects, only he survived. Any male insect who knew his history would return this devil to me. He was clearly the perfect toy, but no one dared to risk their life to play with him.”
Kano chuckled softly and looked up at He Yue. “You still have a chance to back out. In good conscience, I can’t sell him to you without telling you the truth.”
He Yue licked his lips, clearly feeling the scab from the fox’s bite.
“There’s nothing to be afraid of. As his first user, I’m looking forward to your masterpiece.”
“He Yue, aren’t you scared of him constantly seeking death? He squanders his blood like it’s free, every day.” Kano said. “But this guy, he’s never had a mental breakdown. If he really wanted to die, he would have let go of his spirit long ago and died from insectoidization.”
He Yue nodded thoughtfully.
“He has to know he can’t die to dare to stab himself in the throat.” He Yue finished the wine in his glass. “He wants to live more than anyone, you just haven’t seen it.”
Kano seemed to understand, yet not fully. “You’ve only met him twice, yet you can see through him. It seems my worries are indeed unnecessary.”
“Why didn’t you continue your gene modification project, creating new female insect toys?” He Yue asked.
Kano picked up the wine bottle and poured some into He Yue’s glass.
“Back then, I was obsessed with creating the perfect toy. I had no interest in my brother’s assassin organization, all I studied were these copper, iron, and resin toys. Later, I felt they were all boring. I thought, a female insect toy with flesh and blood would be more interesting.”
Kano looked at He Yue, confused. “Do you think Knasch, genetically modified, conditioned to be like a pile of lustful bones, is a perfect toy? He’s so suitable for satisfying needs, why, is it still not right?”
He Yue held the glass, the coolness seeping into his fingertips. He leaned back in his chair, looking at the dazzling city lights outside and his faint reflection in the window.
“Kano, do you think Wien is a perfect work?”
“You mean, that clumsy accompanying female insect of yours?”
He Yue nodded, his voice thick with drunkenness, like a rich, sweet red wine.
“He doesn’t know anything, and I haven’t taught him anything. I’ve never developed him, but he’s absolutely loyal to me.” He Yue took a sip of wine, his voice even more languid. “He doesn’t know any techniques, he might not be conditioned like Knasch, knowing how to serve his Master. But, his heart belongs to me.”
He Yue placed the empty glass on the closed file.
“Kano, my Wien doesn’t treat pleasing me as a job or a task, he’s willing and genuinely enjoys doing it. He wants me to be comfortable and happy, and he gives his all.”
“You said Knasch has been conditioned with all the techniques, but he’s still a dangerous lunatic. In my opinion, his conditioning progress is only 0%, while my Wien, who knows nothing, is at 50%.”
He Yue stood up, swaying slightly from the alcohol.
“Teaching techniques is very easy, you can even use drugs to make him cry and beg you. But, to make him sincerely call you Master, how can that be easy? If you really want to create a perfect toy in the future, I think, perhaps not only his body should belong to you, but his heart should also belong to you.”
He waved his hand, his drunken eyes curving into a smile, as if having a intoxicating effect.
“Thank you for your hospitality, the wine was delicious, I’m going back now.”
——
When He Yue entered with his fingerprint, he was greeted by Wien, who had rushed to the door.
“Master, welcome home.”
He was like a large golden retriever waiting for its master to come home from work, wagging its tail. His eyes were filled with excitement and joy, constantly scanning He Yue.
He had also been waiting for this moment for a long time, to have a small home with his Master. Even if it was far from the base, and he had to commute for a long time, he had no complaints.
“Master, I have something…”
Wien’s excited voice trailed off when he saw Knasch behind He Yue.
A female insect, a masterless female insect.
A sense of crisis arose, and Wien looked at Knasch warily.
Those azure eyes were as fake as gemstones, the silver hair, the upright fox ears, and the fluffy tail wagging behind him, all incredibly conspicuous. He looked about the same height as He Yue, his figure not as tall and strong as a normal female insect.
“Hello, Knasch Harver, just call me Knasch.” Knasch smiled naturally and extended his hand.
Wien hid the things in his hand behind his back and slapped his hand away, his tone stern and cold.
“Wien.”
His expression changed instantly, the warmth he showed his Master completely gone in front of Knasch.
“Master, have you been drinking?”
“Yes, a little, not much.”
“Then I’ll go make some hangover soup, please wait for me.”
Wien turned and went to the kitchen, not even bothering to greet the newcomer.
“His expression changes so quickly, I thought I saw wrong.” Knasch raised an eyebrow at Wien’s busy back and scoffed. “Master and him are so cozy, I really can’t fit into this atmosphere.”
“He didn’t kick you out, that’s entirely because of me.”
Knasch blinked, his azure pupils bright, as if fully charged, his voice feigning sweetness. “Thank you, Master, for taking in a homeless fox.”
He Yue patted his shoulder, seeing through his insincere performance. “Your acting skills need improvement, little fox.” He led the way, taking Knasch upstairs. “Take this guest room as your bedroom. The bedding is in the closet, make it yourself.”
“Alright, thank you.”
He Yue left the room and shook his head helplessly.
He didn’t know if Kano had also taught Knasch these acting skills, or if it was just the fox’s cunning nature, but this fox loved to act. Whether it was a grotesque play or a little trick to please someone, it was very common.
“Be careful, it’s hot, Master.” Wien handed the bowl to He Yue, who was sitting on the sofa, and knelt at his feet, not moving.
He Yue patted his leg. “If you want to lean, come here.”
Wien leaned over, resting his cheek on He Yue’s leg, his arms wrapped around his calf.
“Are you angry?” He Yue gently ruffled his hair.
“Little dog won’t be angry with Master.”
Wien said, his voice dejected. The more he thought about it, the more upset he became, so he closed his eyes and quietly leaned against He Yue’s leg, accepting his Master’s gentle stroking.
“You look like a dejected stray dog.”
“Another female insect is going to take up Master’s time, shouldn’t I be jealous?” Wien frowned slightly, his nose stinging.
“Wien…”
Wien closed his eyes in resignation. “I understand… I’ll go back to the base research institute’s dormitory…”
But this was clearly his and his accompanying male insect’s home.
“I’m not kicking you out, doggy.” He Yue’s hand touched his cheek, gently pinching it. He didn’t know if it was because of Wien’s surging emotions, but he felt his face was unusually hot. He pressed the back of his cool hand against Wien’s face and heard a soft whimper from the little dog.
“If I hear any noise outside the studio, I’ll be even more upset.”
He Yue knew Wien was very upset right now, but the way the big golden retriever frowned and tried to hide his sadness was both amusing and endearing.
“You can stay wherever you want.”
“Master…” Wien buried his head, his forehead resting on He Yue’s leg.
Why didn’t his Master understand? Couldn’t he see he was just sulking? Just a single word, and no matter how upset he was, he would still come back to see his Master every day.
I shouldn’t have said that…
Wien was filled with regret, his muffled voice low as he said, “Master, can I come back on weekends?”
“What?”
Wien didn’t get an immediate affirmative reply and lost his composure. “Then, can I come back once every two weeks? Or, or once a month?” He looked up, his hands holding He Yue’s. “I don’t want to go through another one or two months of not seeing Master, only relying on chance encounters…”
“Wien, this is our home,” He Yue said seriously, cupping his face. “You can come back whenever you want.”
“Every day,” Wien looked away. “I want to stay at home, not go to work. The base research institute doesn’t have Master, it’s not good at all.”
“Who was it that asked me to sign the recommendation letter?”
Wien lowered his head in guilt. “It was me.”
Seeing his expression, He Yue chuckled. “Everyone gets tired of work. If you’re tired, come home and rest. The reason can be that your accompanying male insect is sick.”
“You can’t curse Master like that.”
“You’re really so honest…”
He Yue drank the hangover soup in front of him, feeling the warmth in his stomach, the slight burning sensation gone. He stretched and patted Wien’s head. “I’m going to bed too, get some rest.”
Wien waited until He Yue had gone upstairs before taking out the item from his pocket. He traced its edges, pressing the back of his hand against his burning cheek, trying to cool it down.
In the end, Wien only let out a heavy sigh.
Knasch pressed himself against the slightly open bedroom door, hearing the sound of a door closing in the distance. He had a silver needle hidden in his sleeve, cautiously observing his surroundings.
He needed gland blood, desperately.
Knasch pressed his hand against his chest, trying to calm his racing heart. It had been several days since he had last had male insect gland blood, and after cumming at the banquet today, he felt his body heating up uncontrollably.
He waited for a while, then quietly opened the door and went out. His body could no longer tolerate the wait, so he planned to first send some sleeping gas under the door.
“What are you doing!”
Wien grabbed him by the collar from behind, turned him around, and slammed him against the wall with a loud thud. He frowned, his hand gripping Knasch’s neck.
“What do you want to do to Master! Take out the thing!”
“Cough… cough… let go, you big bear!”
Wien’s strength was incredible, easily overpowering Knasch, even though he was a genetically modified female insect. Knasch relied on his marksmanship and agility in the assassin organization, but in the face of absolute strength, these abilities were useless.
“What are you two doing?” He Yue poked his head out, hearing the thud. He saw Knasch’s eyes rolling back and quickly patted Wien’s arm. “Let go, Wien, he’s about to pass out.”
Wien obediently released his grip, and Knasch slumped to the floor, pitifully hugging his tail.
“What are you pretending for? I saw you lurking outside the door, take it out, I know you have it!”
Knasch’s eyes were red from being choked, and he even shed a few tears, looking pitifully at He Yue. “I don’t have anything, Master… I wanted to discuss something with Master, I just haven’t figured out how to say it yet…”
In He Yue’s eyes, this fox, who had been slammed against the wall by Wien, wrongly accused, and choked until he cried, was now huddled in a corner, hugging his tail, his voice hoarse as he pleaded.
Anyone would feel a bit of pity.
“You! It was clearly you…”
“Wien, come here.” He Yue interrupted Wien and turned to Knasch. “Is it something that has to be said now?”
Knasch still had the silver needle hidden in his wrist. He felt that if he asked He Yue for a shot of his gland now, he would definitely be thrown out as an assassin, so he shook his head. “Tomorrow, or later, I’ll come find Master.”
“Alright, go back.”
Knasch kept up the act until the end, stumbling back to his room.
He clenched his fists in anger, cursing Wien countless times in his mind.
Thankfully, he had stolen and stored a lot of knives and guns from the assassin organization, including many tranquilizer guns, all in his “secret base.” He waited for a while, then climbed out the second-floor window, sliding down the drainpipe and landing on the ground, then climbing over the wall.
The burning sensation in his body was intensifying, and it was becoming increasingly difficult to stay sane. He had to find an unlucky bastard and get a shot of gland blood before he went completely berserk and started killing indiscriminately.
At this moment, he also cursed his cruel creator.
He Yue leaned against the window, looking out through the one-way glass, accurately seeing Knasch climb over the wall, and chuckled softly, drawing the curtains.
Wien stood by the bed, still holding the item he had wanted to show He Yue, and said softly, “I thought Master was really fooled by him.”
“A cunning fox is actually quite cute, and sometimes his teasing words are also very interesting. Of course I could see through him, I just thought this kind of fox was also quite fun, so I turned a blind eye. But, if he really wants to play tricks with me, I don’t mind punishing this fox properly, to teach him a lesson.”
He Yue turned around and extended his hand. “Alright, now let’s talk about our matter.”
“Wha, what?”
“Weren’t you going to show me something? You stopped abruptly when you entered, and you didn’t say anything in the living room later. You were walking around the corridor just now, also to find a chance to show me, right?”
“I…”
He Yue tilted his head. “I gave you a chance.”
A sweat-stained cloth epaulette was placed in He Yue’s hand.
It was embroidered, every stitch representing honor and status. The civilian epaulette was a flat rectangle, not a metal piece like the active-duty ones, nor as magnificent.
He Yue examined the epaulette carefully and asked, “What’s wrong?”
“There’s an extra gold star… The clinical results of the research institute’s medicine were very good, it can improve the stability of male insect pheromones, so it’s considered a major achievement. They awarded it to me at the commendation ceremony today. I’m a lieutenant colonel now, Master…”
He Yue froze for a moment.
“Today’s commendation ceremony? Why didn’t you tell me earlier, I would have definitely gone.”
“It was a very simple ceremony, and there wasn’t a nice uniform. The epaulette didn’t change from silver to gold, it’s still cloth, just with an extra star.”
The epaulette didn’t look much different, and if one wasn’t particularly familiar with civilian ranks, they wouldn’t have noticed the difference between it and the previous major’s epaulette.
Wien lowered his head, his dejection impossible to hide.
“Does Master not like epaulettes anymore?”
“When did I ever say that?”
Wien’s voice trembled, his eyes red. “I… asked Master if you liked Koeyle, or the colonel. Master didn’t answer me, but, I can’t become Koeyle, I can only become a lieutenant colonel, a colonel…”
His eyes welled up with tears.
“Master, am I too late? Do you not like epaulettes anymore?”
Wien’s emotions surged, and he couldn’t control his voice. “You like foxes now, right? What about little dogs? Or, little cats, little wolves… If, if I also had ears and a tail, could I stay by Master’s side?”
Only those who have done research know how difficult it is to achieve results from long, arduous work. Wien had endured countless days and nights, not disturbing He Yue and Koeyle, hoping to gain his Master’s attention by receiving an award and a promotion.
He had held his new epaulette with hope, rehearsing countless times before finally waiting for He Yue to come home, only to see a new female insect when he opened the door.
The plain civilian epaulette now seemed even more dull.
The little dog just wanted to become what his Master liked.
“Wien, come here.”
Wien obediently suppressed his sobs and sat down on the edge of the bed, moving closer to He Yue.
He Yue opened his arms and wrapped them around Wien’s waist, resting his head on his chest.
“You’re amazing, Wien, you’re my amazing little dog. I like your epaulette very much, it belongs to Lieutenant Colonel Wien. Every life is unique, I won’t project Colonel Koeyle onto you, you are you.”
He Yue rested his chin on Wien’s chest and wiped away his tears.
This big guy crying was quite a contrast, not at all as tough as he looked on the outside.
“Did I make you sad today? You must have been looking forward to showing me this epaulette when I came home tonight.” “Master… this is already very good, I’m not sad anymore.” He Yue straightened up, tilting his head and feigning confusion. “Is it really good? No, you should want me to give you a reward, right?” The little dog nodded earnestly.
“Have you thought about it? What do you want?”
Wien swallowed, his gaze lingering on He Yue’s penis.
“Master… I want this, can I?”
“Lieutenant Colonel Wien gets his epaulette, and he’s already thinking about this?”
Wien nodded honestly, his face completely red.
“I… if Master is tired, I can serve you. Or, tomorrow? Later is also fine…” He Yue’s arm rested on Wien’s shoulder. “Lieutenant Colonel Wien, don’t you think the atmosphere is just right now? It’s just that the preparation is a bit troublesome. Did you bring anything? I don’t have anything here, and it’s your first time, right?” He thought for a moment and continued, “Is there anything in the studio? Did you think of buying these when you were getting things before?” Wien lowered his head, one hand holding He Yue’s.
“I prepared… I, I used a potion to douche, it should be, still soft and hot now…” It was difficult for the honest and simple little dog to say these words, and he looked like he was about to combust.
He Yue wrapped his arms around his waist and hooked his clothes.
“Let me see…”
The potion wasn’t ordinary; it wasn’t just for cleaning. It was now hot and tingling, probably containing some herbs like ginger.
He Yue pushed him down with one hand, his shadow falling over him, and chuckled.
“How can you even say tomorrow? Can Lieutenant Colonel Wien last until tomorrow?” Wien was already shy about these things, and now He Yue’s words made him even more embarrassed. He still managed to say softly, “If Master is tired… tomorrow is also fine…” “Even if I’m tired, I have to try what you’ve prepared for me.” He braced himself, his long hair falling forward, the ends brushing against Wien’s face. “You were the one who asked for the reward, you’ll have to take care of the aftermath.” “Even if Master had asked, I would have taken care of the aftermath.”
“You…”
It was incredibly hot, but not at all tight.
He Yue gripped Wien’s arm tightly, his first reaction. The heat was something He Yue had rarely experienced. He liked to slap his partner’s skin until it was red and swollen, but it had never been as hot as the temperature brought on by the herbs.
He didn’t know if it was the remaining unknown herbs, but He Yue felt a strange tingling sensation. The effect of the female insect’s pre-cum was amplified many times over, and He Yue felt his other senses being blocked, only the impact of the burning herbs remaining.
“You… you’re not allowed to use this kind of potion anymore…”
He Yue bit his lip, feeling the herbs entering him through his vulnerable spot, trying to lift him up, making him dizzy.
“But… Master looks so beautiful like this…”
He Yue’s body seemed to have been soaked in the potion, gradually turning pink and red. His lips were especially noticeable, as if he had just eaten a delicious spicy meal, now incredibly red.
He gradually adapted to the potion, his hair swaying slightly, tickling Wien’s skin.
As Wien had said, his Master was truly beautiful.
In his dazed state, he found the unfamiliar imprint point, which gradually opened up under the influence of the potion. Wien could see the light reflecting off He Yue’s body, the faint sheen of sweat like a thin, tight veil against his skin.
Master’s voice was also very pleasant.
Sometimes a soft gasp, his heavy breathing making his chest heave; sometimes a more intense moan when he thrust hard, perhaps even with a hint of a sob.
“Master…”
He Yue leaned in and wrapped his arms around Wien’s neck, biting his shoulder, then tensed up, injecting his “pheromones” into the imprint.
“Mas, Master…”
The pheromones and the genetic imprint were a perfect match; they both came from He Yue.
The feeling of being satisfied both physically and mentally brought tears to Wien’s eyes, and he held his Master tightly. An unprecedented experience, finally achieved after so much hardship.
“I like this gift very much, both the epaulette and the cum.” He Yue hugged Wien, the afterglow satisfied by the embrace, making him feel even more comfortable. After depleting his “pheromones,” a full embrace was a very effective comfort.
“You are my accompanying female insect, the best little dog.”
