Lucian's inner thoughts: submit, or die?
"Alright, I agree." He grinned, a flash of cunning flickering in his eyes.
"Excellent. I enjoy working with smart people the most." Slix Vigma clapped his hands lightly and continued, "In that case, I won't disturb your rest. Heh heh. Today is your championship day, after all."
"Alright." Lucian nodded.
Just as Slix Vigma was about to leave, the holographic projection condensed again. "Oh, right, Earthling. Are you satisfied with the food and women I arranged for you?"
Hearing this, Lucian glanced to the side at the female aliens.
Well… most of them weren't exactly good-looking, but there were a few standouts, some even surpassing top-tier celebrities from his previous life.
Like the mature fox woman in the red body-hugging dress, the white-haired, red-eyed loli, and the bunny-eared alien in black stockings…
Especially the white-haired, red-eyed loli. She looked very close to a human, with watery eyes and an adorable appearance that made people want to protect her.
"Not bad," Lucian answered honestly.
"Good." Slix Vigma let out a sinister chuckle. "To ensure your loyalty, I specifically searched Earth's databases to study how Earth men like women to dress. Using teleportation, I took quite a few outfits and had the most beautiful aliens wear them."
"You've worked hard, Lord Slix Vigma," Lucian said, sounding genuinely moved.
Slix Vigma turned away, waving his hand with the air of someone who did good deeds without seeking credit. "Alright. Go enjoy the gifts I prepared for you. These ingredients are all premium delicacies. They'll help restore your strength. Eat as much as you like."
Lucian nodded, then looked at the forty-plus beautiful alien women. "How about this, Lord Slix Vigma? Could you take some of them away? There are a bit too many. I'm not really used to it."
Slix Vigma laughed darkly. "Don't worry. These beauties are fresh stock. I conducted thorough physical examinations on all of them. They're absolutely safe and non-toxic."
With that, Slix Vigma left, the faint green glow of the projection slowly fading away.
...
Watching Slix Vigma disappear, Lucian took a deep breath and walked toward the dining table.
The moment he sat down on the sofa, a swarm of beauties rushed over, crowding around him in a chaotic wave.
"Handsome, let me give you a massage!"
"Grand Champion, let me feed you some fruit!"
The fox woman in the red dress squeezed into Lucian's arms, wrapping herself around his waist. Her voice was lazy and seductive as she parted her red lips. "Come on, little brother. You've been fighting all day. You must be exhausted. Big sister will feed you some cherries. Here… ah, open up."
The white-haired loli immediately grew unhappy and plopped herself onto Lucian's lap. "Hmph. Don't pay attention to them, big brother. I'm the one who truly cares about you."
As she spoke, she reached out with her small hand, picked up a bowl of precious Jade Dragon Spirit Paste, scooped up a spoonful, and brought it to Lucian's mouth. "Hurry and eat, big brother. I'll feed you. It's really delicious."
The red-dressed fox woman frowned and slapped the white-haired loli's hand away.
Then she hurriedly stuffed a cherry into Lucian's mouth, afraid someone else would get there first.
Dozens of beauties from all kinds of planets, dressed in eye-catching outfits and showing off their charms, crowded tightly around Lucian, surrounding him so completely that he didn't know whether to laugh or cry.
In the end, Lucian dismissed the aliens who didn't fit his aesthetic, leaving only a few behind to attend to him.
To avoid arousing Slix Vigma's suspicion, he had to pretend he was indulging himself. Now wasn't the time to turn hostile. When the moment came, he would strike without warning.
Under Lucian's arrangements, the white-haired loli got her wish and began feeding him spoonful after spoonful, attentive and gentle, and easy on the eyes.
The red-dressed fox woman massaged him, her slender, soft fingers strong and precise, hitting all the right spots. By the time she finished, Lucian was barely holding it together.
The bunny-eared alien in black stockings sat on his other side, carefully telling him stories.
Half-reclined on the soft sofa, Lucian didn't need to lift a finger. Food came to his mouth, everything was taken care of. Even immortals would envy this kind of life.
"So this is the life of a Grand Champion…" Lucian murmured, momentarily dazed.
In his past life, he had just been a bottom-ranking student, a nobody drifting through life, the kind of "bad kid" people talked about, lost and uncertain about the future.
An utterly ordinary person, the kind you could find anywhere. Who would've thought he'd one day cross over into the world of Ben 10?
Not only that, but he'd obtained the Omnitrix, beaten up all kinds of freaks and villains, saved people from disaster, and fulfilled his childhood dreams.
Now he was the Grand Champion of an interstellar arena, surrounded by beauties and feasting on endless delicacies. Everything felt unreal, hazy, like a dream.
With the white-haired loli feeding him, Lucian had eaten quite a bit and was starting to feel full.
He had to admit, the food Slix Vigma prepared was truly excellent. Each dish was the finest specialty from a different planet, slowly restoring his exhausted body.
Thankfully, he hadn't eaten the purple mud paste in the cafeteria earlier. That garbage looked even worse than pig feed.
"Big brother, eat slowly."
The white-haired loli hurriedly picked up a napkin and gently wiped the corner of Lucian's mouth.
"Little brother, are you full yet?" The red-dressed fox woman leaned close to his ear, her breath warm and fragrant. "Big sister hasn't eaten yet. How about… you feed me?"
The bunny-eared alien immediately got upset. "You fox spirit! How can you make the Champion feed you? That's outrageous!"
The red-dressed fox woman smiled slyly, tugging at her collar and revealing a hint of cleavage. "This meal isn't that kind of meal, little bunny. You still have a lot to learn."
Out of the corner of his eye, Lucian caught a flash of snowy white skin, his heart pounding violently.
He swallowed and cleared his throat. "Uh, how about this. If you're hungry, just eat on your own. No need to hold back. If it's not enough, I'll go ask Slix Vigma."
"No~ little brother, I want you to feed me!"
The red-dressed fox woman shoved the white-haired loli aside and swung herself onto Lucian's lap, pinning him down…
