The blue light at the tip of the baton lit up. Gru’s body jolted as though struck by something. The human disguise on its surface began to loosen, and traces of its Swarmborn features started to surface.

“Heh. Trying to escape my sharp eyes?” the young man said as he retracted the baton. He spoke into his earpiece. “Desmond, we’ve found two in the strawberry section. One male, one female. Disguised as tourists. Got it, I’ll bring them over

Gru was escorted through the strawberry fields, then the tomato section, then the apple section. Along the way, countless tourists glanced over curiously and whispered among themselves.

It kept its head down, not daring to look at anyone.

It knew it had completely failed.

Not because of insufficient capability, not because of a flawed plan, but because of those damn fruits.

Desmond stood outside the temporary detention room near the spaceport, watching as the young man brought the two Swarmborns over.

His gaze swept over Gru and Mila, then landed on the young man, filled with approval.

“Seth, good job. You’ll get extra good tonight.”

The young man called Seth immediately grinned, showing a row of white teeth,

“Desmond, these two were way too obvious. They were hanging around the strawberry section forever, not picking anything empty baskets, faces covered in juice. I didn’t even need to smell them-just looking was enough to tell something was aft”

He paused, then added, “Besides, I could pick that smell from them from half a mile away.”

Desmond patted his shoulder. “Alright, get back to work. I’ll take it from here.”

Seth nodded and turned to leave.

Gru suddenly lifted its head and stared hard at Seth’s back.

It was a signal only Swarmborn could detect, and humans couldn’t perceive it

Moreover, that scent reminded it of something

It struggled violently “Seth: You’re Seth! You are from Aebi’s squad!”

Seth paused mid-step.

He rushed back and looked at Cry, raising an eyebrows

“Oh. Gru, you’re wrong!” he had proudly “Pinedongura ambas Pin

He paused again. “My name is Seth. Seth Tycoon. None of that has anything to do with you anymore.”

Gru’s compound eyes nearly popped out of their sockets.

Seth Tycoon?

You took the surname Tycoon?

Mila also forced itself up, staring at him in disbelief. “But you’re clearly a Swarmborn! How can you betray us just to work for humans?”

“I told you,” Seth interrupted, chin lifting slightly in proud defiance. “I’m not a Swarmborn. I’m a registered employee of Tycoon Farm. I’ve signed a contract. I have full benefits and pension contributions. The Swarmborns don’t even have employment contracts, and you still dare call me a traitor?” 3

Gru’s shell practically bristled in rage. “You!”

But Seth had already turned away and left.

His back looked as smug as it possibly could be.

Desmond stood nearby watching the scene, the corner of his mouth twitching.

He remembered when Seth had first been captured. That thing had been defiant to the point of death.

When the electro-net first trapped him, it had fully transformed, spikes bristling, compound eyes red as if they might red

It had slammed into the walls for an entire day, leaving deep dents in the metal door and claw marks in the alloy floo

Desmond had genuinely worried it would kill itself that way.

When the vines were first delivered, Seth hadn’t even looked at them. It had kicked the basket over and roared, am a Sambor warrior! I’d rather starve than eat this trash!”

And then?
