The Little Thumb Prince 8

At the same time, Alia also remembered her spy in the palace.

His majesty has a pet, who enters and exits with him at the same time every day. Even when he went to the Council Chamber, he had to bring his pet with him. The amount of food and clothing for his pet is the same as his majesty. Not only that, his majesty also sleeps and eats with his pet every day. His attitude towards his pet is simply afraid to drop them when holding them, afraid of melting them when putting them in their mouth1.

Thinking of these rumors, a thought came to Alia’s heart.

She glanced at Derek and Francis who were still fighting fiercely, then turned around and walked in Bai Chen direction.

Bai Chen’s body is only the size of a palm now, so his legs are naturally short. The book case is very high, it took a lot of time for Bai Chen to move down from the book case. Bai Chen was just about to rush in Derek’s direction, and came to him but then he was covered by a huge black shadow.

The next second, Bai Chen’s body was grasped by a snow-white hand, and then his whole body was lifted into the air.

Bai Chen didn’t panic, he directly looked up at the person who was holding him.

It’s Alia.

An excited smile appeared on Alia’s face, she drew the dagger from her waist and put it on top of Bai Chen’s head, and shouted at Derek, who was still fighting: “Derek, hurry up and surrender, otherwise your little pet will die.”

Alia’s voice successfully penetrated the sound of laser swords colliding together and passed into Derek’s ears.

Derek’s heart shuddered, he swept away Francis’s attack with the sword, taking a step back and withdrew from the fight.

At the same time, Francis also stopped his attack.

The two looked in Alia’s direction together.

Francis looked at Alia, and Derek looked at Bai Chen in Alia’s hands.

The sharp tip of the knife was on top of Bai Chen’s head. As long as Alia’s wrist shakes slightly, that dagger would pierce Bai Chen’s head and take away Bai Chen’s life.

The look in Derek’s eyes suddenly changed.

Facing Alia’s troubles just now, and facing Francis’s betrayal, his face that never seemed to change suddenly changed when he saw Bai Chen being held hostage by Alia.

Panic, worry, and other emotions, these emotions that have not appeared on Derek’s face for more than two decades are now emerging one after another at this moment.

But after a while, these emotions were all hidden by Derek and no longer revealed.

However, Alia, who has been paying attention to Derek, did not miss the emotion that had just flash by Derek’s eyes.

The triumph in her eyes grew stronger, she was right.

“Alia!” Derek said solemnly.

“Derek, hand over the king’s tokens obediently, and then abdicate yourself, then I will let of this cute little pet.” Alia shook the dagger on Bai Chen’s head, “Otherwise, I will make sure this cute little pet can’t see the sun tomorrow.”

“Alia, you dare!” A fierce look flashed in Derek’s eyes, a vigorous murderous aura burst out from his body, pressing Alia.

If Derek wanted to save Alia’s life for his father’s sake, and only exile Alia to Wild Star before, then at this moment, when he saw Alia using the sharp point of a dagger against Bai Chen, Derek just wanted Alia to die.

No, just dying is simply too cheap for Alia.

The little man is the baby he loves on the tip of his heart, he usually can’t bear to let the little man touch a dangerous object or frown, but now Alia dares to hold the tip of the dagger against his baby.

An infinitely fierce and crazy storm surged into Derek’s heart.

But even though Derek’s aura became more and more violent, Derek’s body was still standing still and did not move.

He was afraid, afraid that the dagger in Alia’s hand would not be held steadily, if he just go like this, he’s afraid that the baby in his heart might have an accident because of his temporary impulse.

Derek did not dare to bet.

That is his baby, a baby that is more important than his own life.

Derek calmed himself down, he have to find a way to save Bai Chen perfectly without hurting Bai Chen.

Derek’s murderous aura is too powerful, Alia has no power to protect her. She almost fell to her knees with softened hands and feet. Fortunately, Francis moved quickly and stood in front of Alia, blocking Derek murderous intent toward Alia.

Alia stabilized her mind that was almost crush by Derek’s power, she stood behind Francis and said sternly: “Derek, hurry up, otherwise I’ll kill it!”

Derek didn’t move.

He stood in place, his already deep eyes became darker, like a bottomless abyss, which made those who look at him scared.

Alia took a step back unconsciously, but she immediately reacted and shouted again automatically: “Derek, do you want it to survive?”

Derek still stood silently, the darkness in his eyes kept increasing, becoming more dense and deep, causing Francis, who has been fighting for most of his life on the battlefield, to shudder, not to mention Alia, who has no abilities to protect her.

Alia found that her body had lost the courage to move under Derek’s deep eyes.

Derek took a step forward.

Alia wants to move, but she can’t control her body at all.

Derek took another step forward.

Alia’s inner fear deepened, her pupils kept shrinking, struggling to run away, but she still couldn’t move.

Derek took the third step.

This time not only Alia, but Francis, who was in front of Alia, couldn’t help but sweat frantically. If anyone pays attention to Francis, they will see Francis’s hands and feet trembling slightly.

Danger, danger, danger.

The word kept repeating in Francis and Alia’s heart, but the two of them couldn’t resist at all.

No, it’s not that they couldn’t, but they dare not.

Derek took the fourth step.

At this time, Bai Chen, who was captured by Alia, moved.

When he was caught by Alia, Bai Chen wanted to take care of Alia directly, but a picture suddenly flashed in his mind. In a dark and secluded space, someone once caught him like this in their hands.

The picture was a little fuzzy, Bai Chen didn’t see what the person in the picture looked like, but he knew he was the one that got caught.

It was such a familiar yet also unfamiliar picture that made Bai Chen stunned on the spot, becoming a little dazed, and didn’t attack Alia.

When Bai Chen came back to his senses, he just saw that Derek’s expression had become very wrong.

Crazy and violent, as scary as the terrifying abyss, but Bai Chen was not afraid, seeing Derek like this, on the contrary, there was a familiar yet also unfamiliar throbbing in Bai Chen’s heart, making him want to keep such a Derek.

System: [Little master, stop him!]

In Bai Chen’s body, the system that uses its energy to make Bai Chen’s body adapt to the special energy of Kaila Star, feel the changes in the outside world, so it immediately emerges from Bai Chen’s body.

As soon as the system came out, it saw Derek, who was constantly approaching and becoming weird.

It was too late to think about anything, the system immediately spoke to Bai Chen.

System: [Little master, you can’t let him wake up now, stop him quickly.]

Bai Chen’s fascination with Derek in this state dispersed immediately after he heard the system voice.

Immediately, an intuition flooded Bai Chen’s heart.

Like the system said, he has to stop Derek in this state.

As if, if it wasn’t stopped, something that he regrets will happen.

He doesn’t know why this intuition came up, but Bai Chen believes in his intuition and the system that has always been with him.

Bai Chen’s eyes sank immediately, he stretched out his hand to grab Alia’s thumb, stepped on Alia’s palm with his feet, with his strength on Alia’s hand, his two arms grab Alia and slammed her hard, throwing Alia into the air, before she fell heavily on the ground.

“Peng” A loud sound broke the silence in the hall.

Immediately, Alia’s painful moan sounded in the hall.

With these two sounds, Derek stopped moving forward, and the terrifying darkness in his eyes gradually dissipated.

Francis also came back to his senses, facing Derek’s suppression just now with fear, he subconsciously swung the laser sword in his hand and stabbed it toward Derek.

Derek was just leaving that state, so his reaction ability is at the worst time, his head is still in a trance, he only perceives the danger, but his current state is not enough for him to dodge, so he only has time to avoid the vital points, Francis sword pierce his shoulder, his blood suddenly flow down.

At the same time, the moment he was injured, all the darkness in Derek’s eyes faded, his body softened, as if all his strength had been taken away, and fell to the ground.

No one saw that when all the darkness in Derek’s eyes faded, a golden light flashed across Derek’s eyes very quickly, except for the system in Bai Chen’s body.

Bai Chen was falling in midair and heard the voice behind him. When he looked back, he saw Derek lying on the ground, his clothes stained with red blood, and Francis standing beside him holding a blood-stained laser sword.

“Derek!” Bai Chen roared, immediately ignoring Alia, he rolled over in mid-air and landed firmly on the ground, the moment he landed, he quickly ran toward Derek.

Francis, who was stimulated by the fact that he had stabbed Derek with a sword, also recovered because of Bai Chen’s roar, walked to Alia side, and raised the wailing Alia with a distressed face.

Derek woke up, he didn’t know what happened before, why he suddenly got stabbed by Francis, but at this moment, seeing Bai Chen running to him safe and sound, Derek suddenly didn’t want to think too much.

He supported his body, got up from the ground, knelt on one knee, and then reached out his hand to hold up Bai Chen, who was running towards him, and preciously kissed his lips: No matter what happened, why was he suddenly injured, none of it matter, as long as his baby is good, that’s enough.

“Derek.” Bai Chen stood on Derek’s palm, his eyes were looking at the bleeding hole on Derek’s shoulder, a layer of mist quickly surged into his eyes

    IMO, most Chinese idioms are weird, but still make sense.

    No why did the mc suddenly turn stupid in this arc??

    “afraid he would melt if he put him in his mouth” refers to the way some type of small, exquisite dessert that melts in the mouth; it’s incredibly beautiful, like a work of art, but also so delicate that it instantly melts on the tongue. It’s also very expensive, difficult to make(or acquire?), and as I said – so beautiful it’s like a miniature work of art – so one hates to eat it because as soon as it reaches the inside of your mouth, it’s gone, and you don’t know when or if you’ll ever be able to get another. (Though that was probably only in ancient times, idk.) I can’t remember for the life of me exactly what it’s called, though.

    Of course, that phrase is also used because Chinese romance literature tends to have a lot of what I’ve seen one fanfic writer refer to as “fluffy vore-adjacent thoughts”; especially on the part of the MLs. It’s weird but true; fortunately no matter how vore-ish and mildly creepy it sounds sometimes, it’s also always clear that the character in question doesn’t *actually* have any desire to cannibalize their lover.
    (With only 1 exception I’ve ever read – a QT novel where one world the MC was sent to by a system that really wanted to screw him over and make him suffer – plopped him right into the body of a person who’d just been bitten by a zombie. Resulting in him becoming a sentient yet amnesiac zombie king with the IQ of a five year old, no moral compass, and zombie instincts. When he met the ML, he had no memory of him; he just thought that the ML was the most delicious thing he’d ever smelled, so he decided to kidnap him as his food reserve. Protecting ML was rationalized as him protecting his food reserve; feeding him was to fatten him up (because his food reserve was way too thin; it really made him feel distressed. …naturally, that was because how could he eat a food reserve that wasn’t fat enough?); even never eating him or taking a nibble was explained by the fact that he instinctively knew that if he bit his food reserve without eating it, it would become like him and the other zombies and be inedible except for the crystal nucleus, and he couldn’t just eat him because… his food reserve just smelled *so good*. After smelling the ML, no other food held any attraction for him, no matter how hungry he was. But if he ate him, he’d be gone, and MC would never be able to smell him again. (Can’t eat… so hungry, so good, but can’t eat it… must lick! Lick and sniff as often as possible to get a taste and smell as much as he could to make up for not eating it. That whole arc was actually hilarious.))

    But anyway – like I said, the vore-adjacent atuff is always more fluffy than creepy or gross. The phrases/expressions used are metaphorical rather than literal – referring to the way they wish that they could 1) keep their lover with them forever (by making them a part of themselves so it would be impossible for the two to ever be separated), 2) protect their lover by hiding them away with their own flesh, and/or 3) wanting to be as intimate with them as possible; as though they could take their lover inside themselves and become one flesh forever.
    (…autocorrect just changed that to “become one *fish* forever”. 😵‍💫 )

    IDK how else to explain it. Anyway, it’s very, very vore-ish; but despite how much vore disgusts me, these things don’t bother me because they’re also weirdly fluffy and not actually cannibalistic.
