StarCraft: Everyone wants the Queen

Chapter 216 Making a Game

Upon hearing his younger brother's scathing rebuke of him in front of the enemy, Koster realized he hadn't disciplined him enough and hadn't established his authority.

Otherwise, at this point, the children who have been raised with strict education and under his carefully selected system of corporal punishment would absolutely not bow down to evil forces!

He would never betray his brother!

"Kaisern!!"

Hearing the familiar voice, Katherine shuddered in fright.

If his submission to Nordlin was feigned, then his trembling upon hearing Koster's voice was a fear etched into his subconscious.

Katherine, who was hiding his head and pretending to be a quail egg, clearly didn't want to see any news about Koster. Even hearing his voice would terrify him.

Nordlin turned to the side, his gaze falling on Koster, and waved the chick he was carrying at him.

His words were full of teasing: "Tsk, so this little chick is your brother?"

Koster never gave Nordlin a second glance, or rather, he simply couldn't be bothered to argue with a vagrant.

"Let him go."

"If you just let me go like that, wouldn't I lose face?"

As Nordlin spoke, he tapped Little Quail Egg Katheren on the head with the gun in his other hand, which had its barrel bent.

"Well then, I'm an honest person. If you want to redeem your brother, you'll have to show some sincerity."

Upon hearing the terms offered, Koster only needed a moment's thought before he blurted out a classic quote.

He said to Katherine, who was being threatened to be held hostage, “Katherine, I think I’m still young, and our parents aren’t that old either. They… can have another one.”

Upon hearing what Koster said, Katherine felt utterly hopeless, pointing at him and muttering without being able to utter a single word.

It was only after Nordlin slapped him twice that he regained his senses.

Katherine was the first to disagree, yelling, "Koster, what the hell do you mean? If you don't like me, just say so! I don't want you! You shameless, treacherous, and despicable bastard who spews filth, deserves to die... You shameless dog, you actually want your father and mother to have another one? I think you're a complete idiot!"

Katherine is one of the youngest generals in the Federation.

This title is not undeserved; it is all show and no substance.

Because he wanted to become a general, his family cooperated.

Because he wanted to become the youngest general, the Federation sent everyone who was younger or older than him, young or old, men or women of the same age, with any qualifications, to the front lines.

The Federation and his family had been playing along with him for over a decade. Even when he competed against others, they would break their own legs beforehand.

As for the front lines?

They strictly controlled every enemy who rushed towards Kather, citing the reason that generals should not directly intervene, and only after ensuring that they would not harm this teenage brat did they feel comfortable handing the enemies over to him to deal with.

The Casterians are different from the Zerg. Their physical attributes and abilities are not as strong as the Zerg, nor do they go to the battlefield directly after the age of eighteen like the Zerg. Therefore, although Katherine has good aptitude, she still did not get enough room to grow.

His brother disapproved of the Federation and the family's practices and insisted that Katherine undergo intensive training.

Katherine, who was forced to work at a young age, has always disliked her brother.

But actually... he can't beat Koster.

This is why they are afraid of Koster, because his reputation actually comes from his brother.

Although he didn't want to admit it.

But reality will teach you how to be a person.

Koster looked at Katherine expressionlessly, then sighed as if resigned, and waved his hand, saying, "In the end, I still have to clean up your mess. This is the last time, Katherine. From now on, you will stay obediently in the family and not go anywhere."

Then he had his subordinate bring the control panel and hand it to Nordlin.

"Choose whichever one you like."

Nordlin waved the Katherine in his hand, his tone light and cheerful, "I didn't expect you little brat to be so valuable."

Katherine couldn't understand why her brother would do this. He was perfectly capable of dealing with this ruthless bandit, yet he still agreed to his unreasonable demands.

He didn't understand.

Nordlin glanced down from his seat in the spaceship.

With a shout of "Here!", a sack was thrown out of the spaceship.

Koster quickly caught it, watching as the spaceship gradually disappeared from sight.

The captain behind him asked in a low voice, "Koster, do you think we should continue chasing them?"

“Heh, of course we should go after them,” Koster said with a smirk. “Just make a show for the Federation Emperor. Those two Zerg girls really helped me a lot.”

After struggling for a long time, Katherine finally poked her head out of the sack, confused. "What are you talking about? Why can't I understand?"

The captain closed the sack again and said to Koster, "Then let's leave Katherine in the family. Surely the Emperor will agree to let the family discipline the young master this time."

“Hmm,” Koster paused for a moment, then continued, “The Federation has always been wary of family power. Katheren has not yet fully matured. If he continues to stay in the Federation, he will definitely be eliminated. Taking advantage of this opportunity, we can use the excuse of him making a mistake to keep him within the family for supervision. It can be considered a blessing in disguise.”

At this moment, on the interstellar spaceship, Shen Qingqing heard what Ge Yuan said and couldn't help but marvel at the internal conflicts within the Federation.

"Shouldn't they value talent? Why do they want to get rid of Katherine?"

Ge Yuan crossed her legs, propped her chin up with one hand, and looked at the fleeting stars outside the window. She slowly said, "When Koster came to me, I was also skeptical, but after meeting Katherine, I believed what he said."

"Do you remember when we first arrived at the training ground, I grabbed Katherine by the ear and threw him aside?"

Shen Qingqing said, "I remember, I thought you were quite handsome back then, able to throw a federal general out in one go."

"Do you also think that Katherine did it on purpose?" Ge Yuan asked with a smile.

"Detecting mental strength by touching the skin surface is the most direct way. His mental strength is actually very weak, not even as strong as yours, so I made a deal with him."

"By using a sparring match to lure out Katherine, and then creating the impression in front of everyone that he failed in his duties and let the Zerg escape, and then pinning the crime on him, Koster can take him away right under everyone's noses without leaving a trace, right?" Shen Qingqing speculated.

“So smart! As expected of my Qingqing,” Ge Yuan said to her. “This time the harvest was pretty good. Besides the necessary data, Koster also owes us two favors.”

Ge Yuan raised an eyebrow at Shen Qingqing and said, "One for you, one for me."
