Chapter 13 Chapter 13 69 % As Theon was about to float off into a cloud of bliss , Zayne doused his daydream with some cold water . Dont get ahead of yourself . Nyx doesnt know youre a beastman . She thinks youre just a regular lion . Zaynes words meant Nyx wasnt exactly giving Theon a mating consent . Zayne added , I didnt tell her that the lion was you . She thought you were on a mission and headed back to the base . Zayne tossed the Intelligent Brain wrist at Theon with a knowing smirk and said , Now , take your stuff and get going . Theon shot Zayne a glare . He didnt want to leave Zayne alone with Nyx . He didnt want to give the guy any chance to swoop in . But in reality , he had no choice . Even though Theon was back in his human form , his Loss of Control Index had hit 80 , which meant he had to head straight to the Supervision Office . The whole office was shaken when they heard about Theons recovery after merely 17 hours . Are you sure youre not lying to us ? The director of the office came to meet with the youngest major general in the empire . Theon was already in a bad mood , and now he was even less patient . Why the hell would I lie ? The director awkwardly chuckled , thinking , Yeah , this young lion definitely lives up to his reputation for having a short fuse . Not like his uncle Felix , whos always Mr. Calm and Collected . The director confirmed that Theons Loss of Control Index hit 80 last night , the Intelligent Brain immediately gave the alarm , and the time recording was solid . And now , sitting in front of him was actually Theons human form . The director thought it was beyond belief . After the formalities , they quickly dragged Theon in for a medical check up . When the results came in , the whole place went wild . Everyone rushed over to witness this unbelievable result . His Loss of Control Index is 70 ! Holy crap , this is a miracle ! someone yelped . In order not to make any mistakes , they made Theon take the checkups three more times . And the results were exactly the same . Theons Loss of Control Index was indeed 70 . That meant , not only had Theon snapped out of his lost control period in 17 hours , but his Loss of Control Index had also dropped a full 10 points during that time ! Did you receive mental comfort from an A level female ? asked the director . Theon replied , No. He was determined to keep his purity for Nyx . He didnt accept any slanders against him . The researchers were stunned . No ? But how the hell did your Loss of Control Index drop so much ? A full 10 points ? Thats even better than an A level females mental comfort . Its close to the effect of an S level female . Theon was also scratching his head . He never expected his Loss of Control Index to drop . Normally , without a females mental soothing , a males Loss of Control Index would only rise and never decrease . 1/4 aga onaj îne 69 % Chapter 13 Thinking back to the time he had spent time with Nyx , Theon asked , Can a female whos about to awaken but hasnt fully awakened yet still have the ability to soothe me ? One researcher nodded and answered , If shes close to awakening , and theres already some mental power fluctuation , she Could do it . So , youre telling me … the one who soothed you was actually a female whos not fully awakened yet ? The researchers were practically bouncing off the walls . Thats insane ! Shes so strong Maybe shes on the verge of awakening S level mental power ! It had been centuries since an S level female appeared in the empire . If one did , shed be treated like a goddess . Everyone was excited , but Theons face turned darker by the second . Everyone knew that the way to soothe a male was through mating . Theon thought to himself , Does that mean , during my loss of control , I didnt just harass Nyx but did something worse to her ? No female would ever consent to mating with a male in beast form , so did I force Nyx ? Meanwhile , Nyx , out shopping with Zayne , suddenly sneezed loudly . Zayne asked in concern , Did you catch a cold ? Nyx rubbed her nose , shaking her head . No , I think its just people gossiping behind my back . On this planet , online stores were huge , but physical stores still had their charm . The malls sold everything from snacks , jewelry , and pretty clothes to potions , energy minerals , mechanical parts , and daily necessities . As they passed by a potion shop , Nyx spotted a Physical Enhancement Serum and became interested . The description promised that drinking it would turn her currently frail body into a powerhouse . Of course , the price was astronomical . But Nyx had been showered with donations from her fans , and she could afford it . Zayne sighed , grabbing Nyx before she could rush in and snatch the serum . Your body cant handle something that strong . You just need to stick to the drinks I prepared for you . Those will work a lot better . The store owner , a middle aged male , had been lounging with his eyes closed , but he immediately snapped them open when he heard Zaynes words . He was ready to give a piece of his mind to whoever dared to talk big in his store . But once he saw Zaynes face , his angry expression quickly morphed into something more respectful . Larsen , my apologies . I didnt realize it was you . The owner was well aware of Zaynes reputation as a genius pharmacist . In fact , everyone in this business had heard of him , the young man who had worked his way out of the Desolate Planet and built a name for himself with unmatched pharmaceutical skills . And now , Zayne was working for the military , had made notable advancements in medicine , and even designed efficient medical pods . The owner couldnt help but marvel that he was a true genius . He wanted to strike up a conversation and maybe even get some advice from Zayne , but before he could , a mother and her two sons came into the store . I want this ! Buy it for me ! The chubby little boy shouted as soon as he walked in . He pointed at the priciest item in the shop : Advanced Gene Enhancer . 2/4 12.31 Sat , Feb 8 BBB Chapter 13 969 % His mother was a sharp faced middle aged female . She shoved another young male roughly beside her and said , Did you hear that ? Buy it for your brother ! Nyx couldnt help but glance over . The scene felt so familiar to her , and it almost brought her back to her old life when she was bled dry by her own family , those she trusted most . That male was tall and slim , his posture perfect , but his eyes were downcast , hiding his emotions . I dont have the money right now , he said . Excuse me ? The female exploded , looking like a bomb about to detonate . She grabbed the older male by the hair , punching and kicking him furiously . She snarled , Wheres your money gone ? What about all the money youve earned ? You kept it for yourself , huh ? Youre just like your damn father ! The female was decked out in expensive clothes and jewels , with her makeup on point . She looked like she had everything , but her behavior was like a trashy , spoiled woman Nyx used to know . The kid , mimicking his mother , kicked his brother and shouted , Mom has dumped your dad . Now my dad is her main consort . You should get outta here ! Nyx couldnt take it anymore . She was about to step in when the male suddenly raised his head with a cold smile . Only then did Nyx finally see his face clearly . He was ridiculously handsome , but right now , his face was battered and bleeding , and his eyes were bloodshot . The fluctuations in his emotions were obvious . His eyes began to redden , and before Nyx could even react , they turned into vertical slits ! More precisely , his whole body morphed into a huge , dark serpent ! A scream erupted from the store , followed by utter chaos . Zayne acted fast , pushing Nyx behind him . It was a mamba , a deadly snake , and its venom was excruciatingly painful . With fast enough medical attention after getting bitten by it , it might not be fatal . But without it ? Thatd be a different story . People scattered in all directions , trying to get as far away as possible . But the middle aged female and her chubby son werent quick enough . They screamed in terror as the mamba wrapped around them , its poisonous fangs mere inches from their faces . The boy was still crying and cursing , but the female was sobbing , begging for mercy . Dont bother begging now , someone shouted . Hes out of control . He wont understand you . Nyx focused on the mamba and noticed the dark mist swirling around it . This creature was wild , full of aggression , and it was poisonous . She couldnt get too close , not unless she wanted to risk her life . But at the same time , she couldnt just watch and do nothing . She didnt feel pitiful for the awful mother and son , but she thought this young male deserved a chance in the future . After hesitating for a moment , Nyx took off her coat and tossed toward the mamba , hoping to distract it . The whole crowd immediately let out gasps . Someone whispered . Has she lost her mind ?
