D-level males reached the pinnacle of life by living off women.

When Dorian rushed back to Fez's house, Fez was sitting in the yard, lost in thought.

He was extremely surprised to see Dorian.

"Dorian, why are you back? Didn't you go back to...?"

Before Fez could finish speaking, Dorian interrupted, "Lord Fez, do you like me?"

Fies was taken aback by the question, then hurriedly waved his hands and explained, "What nonsense are you talking about? I've never had those kinds of feelings for you."

Although Fies denied it quickly, he kept glancing around as he spoke, avoiding Dorian's eyes.

Dorian could tell at a glance that Fies was lying, but no matter how much he pressed him, Fies stubbornly refused to admit it and told Dorian to hurry back to the capital planet and not waste any more time here.

In a moment of desperation, Dorian took out the flower bracelet that Fez had given him and shoved it in front of Fez's eyes.

"If you don't like me, then why did you give me this flower bracelet? For the Embera insectoids, isn't it a token of love?" Dorian asked.

Faith was stunned when she saw the flower bracelet that was so well cared for.

Thinking of the sweet and expectant feeling she had when she was making the bracelet, and the happiness and joy she felt when Dorian accepted the bracelet, Fies's lips trembled slightly, and she could no longer say "I don't like you".

Seeing that Fez's attitude seemed to waver, Dorian pressed his advantage.

"Lord Fez, I like you too, let's be together."

On the way here, Dorian had already made up his mind: he wanted to be with Fez.

He knew that the two of them would encounter many obstacles in the future, including pressure from family, social class, and various other sources. In addition, his lifespan would be greatly shortened. But no matter what, he didn't want to back down anymore. He wanted to live for himself for once.

But after hearing Dorian's words, Fez, who had seemed somewhat hesitant, did not show any joy.

He remained silent for a long time, then sighed deeply and said, "Dorian, I have indeed fallen in love with you, but we cannot be together."

In fact, during Dorian's recovery period, Fez had already developed some vague feelings for him.

Fez reached adulthood five years ago and still doesn't have a single female. In a Zergling society that encourages early marriage and childbirth, he is already considered an older unmarried male.

The village elders often urged him to get married, and there were female insects who showed interest in him, but Fez just didn't want to settle.

His male and female fathers were together because they liked each other, and they only had each other until death. Faith longed for such a marriage.

He wants to find a female insect he likes to marry, but if he doesn't find one, he'd rather be an insect alone.

Dorian was the first female insect he met who he felt attracted to, but after learning that Dorian came from the capital planet, he gave up on the idea, because he felt that Dorian was not worth giving up her comfortable life on the capital planet to stay on the backward planet Yog.

However, Fez was still happy when Dorian returned for the second time.

After realizing that Dorian was increasingly enjoying and adapting to life in the mountains, Fez's previously extinguished desires began to grow wildly again.

After much consideration, he decided to be brave for love.

To show his sincerity, he traveled to every corner of the mountains to collect yaxin flowers and made a flower bracelet to symbolize their love.

The moment Dorian accepted the flower bracelet, Fez felt an unprecedented joy, and afterwards, he was in a state of euphoria.

Back in his room, after chuckling to himself for a while, Fies realized that Dorian wasn't an Embera insectoid and probably didn't know the meaning of the flower bracelet.

He slapped his forehead and decided to formally confess his feelings to Dorian again the next day. He could sense that Dorian liked him too.

After that, he went to Uncle Apache's place to ask about the things to prepare for the wedding.

Then he received a devastating piece of news: Dorian was a B-grade female insect, which meant he couldn't provide Dorian with mental comfort.

Because Fies was considered a high-ranking member of the Embera Zerg, he never imagined that his rank would be mismatched with Dorian's.

After hearing the news, Fez returned home in a daze.

On the very night that Dorian hesitated and struggled, Fez also didn't sleep.

That night, Fez also decided to give up on this relationship that hadn't even begun; he couldn't let Dorian get into trouble because of his own selfish desires.

Dorian is a wonderful female insect and deserves a better life. She shouldn't damage her body and lifespan for a relationship.

Fies genuinely hopes that Dorian can return to the capital planet and start a new life, so even though Dorian's confession makes his heart race instantly, he will not agree to be with Dorian.

He calmly said to Dorian, "Dorian, two insects together should bring each other happiness, but I cannot provide you with mental comfort, so I cannot bring you happiness, only pain."

"So you should go back to the capital planet. That's the world that belongs to you. Sooner or later you'll meet a male insect that's a thousand times, ten thousand times better than me."
