I Love Destroying Worlds' Plot-Chapter 1099: 17.26 Fourth Violet Star - Titus von Chrysalis
Before the news of a spaceship being shot down...
Titus von Chrysalis successfully escaped from home, leaving behind his twin sister, after bribing Old Man Willow with his younger brother's homemade fertilizers. These fertilizers were a powerful tonic for sentient plants and trees like Old Willow, helping them grow stronger. For Titus, they were also his quantum beast's favorite food. He was headed to Planet Terra in search of herbs and to reunite with his younger brother.
However, upon entering the planet's stratosphere, his spaceship was shot down without warning. Luckily, Titus managed to escape before it exploded and landed on the planet's surface. His clothes were torn and his face was covered in soot and dust, leaving him looking like a beggar. Despite this, his Quantum Beast helped him survive the fall by lessening its impact and leading him to the nearest body of water.
Even if there was danger where he had fallen, his Water Poppy Flower Fairy would protect him. So Titus von Chrysalis who felt depressed after he lost his shop was dragged away from the water by his hardworking Quantum Beast. If there was someone near the current pond he had fallen into, they would see a man covering his face while being dragged by a fairy towards the shore.
Titus von Chrysalis was shouting his complaints to the heavens above, "How can you shoot down someone who wanted to enter the planet! I even have my license to enter this little star! You destroyed my ship, how can I even go back home? Wuwuwu~"
The Water Poppy Fairy said, "Master, stop shouting! It's your fault. You didn't put the ship on stealth and didn't request to land. Of course, those soldiers will think of you as an intruder."
Titus von Chrysalis responded, "I fell asleep and completely forgot about it. When I woke up the ship was shot down already."
The Water Poppy Fairy said, "Master, you are so careless. If I didn't protect you at the last minute even if you are an S-ranked Adjudicator, you would be badly injured in that kind of explosion."
"That's why it's not my fault! They are the ones who directly attacked me? I'm going to get compensation!" Titus von Chrysalis said.
The Water Poppy Fairy murmured, "I think that is impossible."
Upon reaching the shore, the Water Poppy Fairy assisted his master in drying his clothes. Although there were a few burns and holes in the jacket and pants, they were still wearable. Titus von Chrysalis surveyed the area, as he was a frequent visitor to this Star, and noticed the significant changes in the forest. He was aware that there were numerous Sentient Plants on the planet, who guarded the valuable herb garden against intruders and Zergs. Granddad Argus Blues von Chrysalis had a secret garden in this area, and most inhabitants of the planet knew about the Chrysalis Clan's members.
Titus von Chrysalis commented as he found the changes in the planet, "This place changed a lot. Must be because of the event that involves the Human Race's cubs. Poppy, can you feel where Yaya is?"
"Yes, I will point you the way, Master. Please ask the King to give me more fertilizer as a reward." The Water Poppy Fairy said.
Titus von Chrysalis grinned and said, "Sure, I'll ask him this time how to make it and make more for you."
"That's great. Master, go this way." The Water Poppy Fairy said.
He used to be a Water Poppy Flower before becoming a fairy. Through meditation in his Master's Quantum World, he met the king and received his blessing to become a Poppy Fairy. He believed that with the king's assistance, he could become even stronger. As they were preparing to leave, Titus suddenly turned his head and appeared ready to attack someone. However, he then gave a playful smirk, which made his feminine appearance seem more seductive. Although he does not have an androgynous face like his younger brother, Yara von Chrysalis, he is still considered a beautiful man due to his delicate features.
The Water Poppy Fairy asked when he noticed that his master stopped following him, "Is there something wrong, Master?"
"Nothing." Titus von Chrysalis replied.
In his quantum world, he pulled out another Sentient Plant. It was a contracted Sentient Nightshade flower, not his quantum beast. In contrast to his Poppy Fairy, this one doesn't yet have a humanoid form, but it is already S-ranked in strength.
"Hold onto Lil Shade, and let her get some sunlight." Titus von Chrysalis said.
After leaving the area with his two partners, Titus focused on finding his younger brother. Moments later, ripples appeared in the direction where he was staring, as if an illusion was broken. A person in a white coat with glasses on their face emerged from that area. It was Zane Lin, the Transmigrator Sorcerer known as Megan Shelley.
He had joined the school event while still wearing his laboratory coat, even though he didn't originally plan to. He felt responsible for accidentally letting a system thing he caught escape and had to use his magic to find its traces. The trace eventually led to Silvan von Rosegard's room, but Zane couldn't get involved with the child. However, the existence of the system worried him, so he secretly followed it, waiting for an opportunity to grab it.
Zane had not expected to get lost after descending on Planet Terra. He was the type to get lost easily and wouldn't know where to go even with a map. He walked around the forest for hours and even slept on a tree branch with no aura. He knew that Sentient Beings were full of aura, so if a tree didn't have an aura, it was only an ordinary tree.
The next day, Zane was looking for food when he heard a loud explosion from the sky. He used Stealth Magic to hide himself and watch the scene, where he saw a broken mind and a human. He never expected the human to come out alive but was surprised when he saw a fairy wrap its master in a flower and water. He heard the man shouting complaints like a crazy person but didn't openly comment as he was hiding. Zane quietly watched and waited for them to leave, but he didn't expect the man to turn around and look at him while he was invisible. When the man smiled, Zane knew that he was either seen or felt. Afterward, the man with a beautiful face left as if he was no longer interested in Zane.
Megan Shelley mumbled, "He saw us, didn't he? Lil White."
Since the real Megan Shelley was only a Rank C Mediator, he turns to gaze at his Quantum Beast, a White Dove that can become larger for him to ride, but he decides against doing so. This white dove changed once he took control, growing three times larger than the original King Level White Dove. He knew from looking at his data that his level had increased since his mana had been transformed into qi. The S-ranked fighter hails from C.
"He seems dangerous yet not at the same time. Forget it, I still need to look for Silvan von Rosegard. Lil White, let's go check the sky and try to find his tracks." According to Megan Shelley, the white dove that was perched on his shoulders flew upward and grew larger before releasing his master and taking off on its own. He no longer desires to walk alone because he is unable to exit the forest no matter which way he turns. He gives his quantum beast control of the navigation.
Titus von Chrysalis noticed him soaring around from the area beneath where his quantum beast passes by, gave him a chilly glance, and then turned away.
Titus clicked his tongue and rubbed his nose, "Doesn't he know that Adjudicators can smell the scent of Mediators? Even though I don't know where he is exactly or know what he did to make himself disappear... His scent is tantalizing. What do you think, Poppy?"
"Is the master saying they are our pair?" The Water Poppy asked. He recalled the refreshing scent that made him relaxed and mingled with him when they first landed on the land. He thought it was just an excess aura from the planet. But to think it came from that white bird. "What master wanted to do?"
"Shall we follow them instead? Maybe it would be fun~" Titus von Chrysalis said.
In the end, they changed direction and headed to where Megan Shelley had disappeared. He secretly followed them as if they wanted to know where they were heading but in reality, they were just stalking Megan Shelley and his quantum beast.

At some corner of Planet Terra...
Webs like cocoons encircled an object that resembled an egg, and the sound of pulsing emanated from it. The sound of the heartbeat itself is a sign of life. It appeared as though this egg was sucking the life out of the surrounding earth as the area went barren. There were no trees or vegetation, and even the grass had been damaged. The acts of this egg, which is still a parasite on the planet, caused all of it to perish.
It was unexpected to see how many powerful Zergs were guarding this egg. Even a baby Zerg King is standing next to the egg, guarding it while it waits for the egg to hatch.
"Ze...zezeze~... Soon. Birth. New. Queen." The bug standing on two legs murmured as it watched the pulsing egg he was protecting.
"Zeze~ Not. Enough... Nutrients... Need. Humans... Kill..."
All Zergs under the standing Zerg kneeled and left as soon as he finished speaking, acting as though they had been given a command from their King. On Planet Terra, the students and troops were completely unaware of the impending peril that was aiming for their demise.

At the depths of Planet Terra...
Yara von Chrysalis was in the midst of trimming some flowers when he suddenly looked up as if sensing something strange happening on the planet. His previously expressionless face became serious and colder as he gazed up at the sky. Meanwhile, Jace Green and their other teammates were cooking nearby. They had caught a mutated wild boar while hunting and had a pile of fish that Rozen had caught from the nearby river. They were enjoying their time without a care in the world, unaware of the danger looming over Planet Terra.
Jace Green said, "Yara, stop working on plants. Go ahead and eat our lunch first before continuing. We made Pork Barbeque, white rice, fish soup, Fish filet and Braised Pork. There are also eggs in it. We found some nests on our way back."
Upon learning that it was almost time to eat, Yara's face returned to normal after being icy.
Before walking to the water to wash his hands, he said something inaudibly to the plants in front of them. He then joins the team in eating lunch.
While eating lunch, Yara von Chrysalis said out of nowhere, "When hunting don't go too far than 100 meters this time. Beware of ambushes."
Jace Green von Imperlian and the other three team members put their food down. They were startled by Yara's warning. Yara doesn't hunt with them, but he instructs some plants or trees to help him catch some animals, keeping their scores steady. Yet this is the first time he has instructed them to restrict their hunting territory. They were aware that he must have received information from the trees, and that the danger posed by the object made him worry for them.
"Is there something wrong with this Planet, Yara?" Jace Green asked.
Yara von Chrysalis looked at his friend and said, "I don't know what it is, but the air started to tremble. I just feel something dangerous has come out. It's just my intuition. Anyway, be careful when you are hunting. Especially look out for ambushes."
"Hm. We will keep that in mind. It's safe within 100 meters from here, right?" Jace Green von Imperlian asked.
"If it's beyond that, I can't lend help if you are too far." Yara von Chrysalis said.
No one enquired as to what he meant by safeguarding them. Jace Green and the rest of the group later understood that Yara had been keeping an eye on them while they were out hunting. Within a 100-meter radius, every tree and plant serves as his eyes and limbs. He can therefore help them if something happens as long as they stay within that distance. Yet, he will continue to remain still, just as before, unless their lives are in jeopardy.
A smile appeared on Jace Green's and his teammates' lips and said, "Okay. We will listen to you."
