Chapter 47 94% +13 The temperature on the snow mountain was freezing, but the atmosphere felt soothing and warm. After a hearty meal, Nyx took a short nap. When she woke up, she felt someone touching her face. The person's fingertip was rough with calluses, but their touch was light, barely giving her any sensation. Her eyelashes fluttered, and Nyx opened her eyes, mumbling, "Felix?" The man's hand paused slightly on her face, then withdrew calmly. "You're awake? We've already left the snow mountain." While Nyx slept, Felix received an urgent message: an imperial munitions depot had been bombed, likely by Space Pirates. Intelligence suggested their leader, Jaws, might have been involved.
If it was just the munitions depot that was bombed, it would be serious, but not severe enough to warrant Felix's personal involvement.
However, if Jaws himself appeared, it was worth Felix going in person.
After all, Jaws was not only tactically cunning and good at hiding his tracks, but he also had SS-level strength and had severely injured more than one S-level general in the Empire during previous encounters.
This malignant tumor had to be removed.
Due to the emergency, their original three-day trip was cut short, and Felix could only apologize to Nyx and promise to bring her back next time.
If it had been any other female, she would likely have thrown a tantrum.
But Nyx just rubbed her eyes and smiled softly, "It's fine, Felix." Having soaked in hot springs and played with small animals on the snow mountain, she felt it was worth the trip.
Before leaving the planet, the spacecraft took Nyx high above the ground, flying over the sea, through the desert, and across the prairie.
On the prairie, herds of cattle and sheep were migrating, wild horses galloping, kicking up clouds of dust. "Lions!" Nyx suddenly pointed at a pride of lions.
Her eyes brightened as she turned to Felix, "Felix, you're also a lion, right?" She thought, 'With Theon and Felix looking so alike, would they look even more similar in beast form?' Facing Nyx's expectant gaze, Felix helplessly nodded.
He would do his best to fulfill Nyx's request.
The spacecraft landed.
With a surprised shout from Nyx, a robust black-maned lion appeared on the prairie.
Nyx stared in surprise, her mouth slightly agape.
08:34 Thu, 13 Feb M Chapter 47 94% 13 The lion before her was young and strong, with amber eyes that seemed deep and wise. His muscular build exuded wild strength. The wind of the prairie blew through his mane, as if he was born to be the undisputed king of this land.
Follow on NovᴇlEnglish.nᴇtNyx gazed at the lion, almost seeing a different side of Felix.
In human form, Felix had always felt like a stern elder to her, but in lion form, he exuded the vigorous passion of a young male, overflowing with hormones.
His dominance was amplified even more in beast form. Compared to Theon, who was more playful and juvenile, Felix made Nyx feel somewhat reluctant to act freely.
The black-maned lion let out a deep, powerful growl.
Instantly, the herbivores froze in fear. Most of them scattered in all directions, while a few stood frozen in place. Even predators like leopards instinctively took cover. They had never heard such a terrifying lion's roar before. They had never seen such a powerful lion in this territory.
Not only the other animals were puzzled, but even the pride that Nyx had pointed to was baffled.
The lioness kept a watchful eye on the cubs. The two mature male lions of the pride, brothers, approached cautiously, following the sound and scent towards Felix.
Upon seeing Felix, the two lion brothers hesitated, even showing signs of fear.
They exchanged a glance; the contrast between them and Felix was stark.
Nyx realized just how massive the male Beastmen were.
Even if the two male lions combined, they were no match for Felix's height and strength.
Not only did Felix's physical size dominate, but his mere gaze exuded an immense presence that commanded authority.
The atmosphere was tense. Nyx gently tugged at Felix's mane and whispered, "Let's go, Felix." Male lions didn't retreat without a fight. Even though the two wild lions were no match for Felix, they would still charge at him to defend their cubs and their dominance in the pride.
Nyx didn't want to see them fight.
Nyx's touch on his mane elicited a strange reaction. The black-maned lion's response was a mix of tenderness and irritation: a soft nuzzle, a gentle lick on the back of her neck, quickly followed by a low, menacing growl that put the two other males on edge.
The wet and prickly feeling on her neck made Nyx shiver.
For felines, the neck was a special and meaningful area.
While elders might carry young cubs in their mouths, it was usually the mother carrying the undeveloped cubs.
More often, it was the male who would bite the female's neck to show dominance, court her, or pin her to the ground.
Nyx vaguely sensed something was wrong.
But in the next moment, Felix turned back into his human form, holding her as he jumped onto the flying vehicle, interrupting her train of thought.

On the return journey, the Intelligent Brain kept urging Felix with beeps.
Several legions had already rushed to the destroyed munitions depot, just waiting for Felix to arrive and take command.
Felix, with no tto register her as a guardian, dropped Nyx off at her m hand was about to depart to No track the Space Pirates. "When I cback, we'll go get the registration done." Nyx paused, then realized it wasn't marriage registration but guardian registration. She blushed slightly and nodded. "Be careful." Felix patted her head, his gaze falling on the blue iris necklace around her neck. He paused slightly, “This is?" He had been wanting to ask why she wore this necklace, and who gave it to her.
Nyx deserved the best of everything and shouldn't be wearing something like this necklace.
Felix searched his mind for expensive custom jewelry shops and upcoming auctions of jewels.
If Nyx liked jewelry, he would present the best pieces to her, allowing her to choose whatever she wanted.
"Hm?" Nyx touched the necklace and showed it to him. "It's a gift.” "Which male gave you such a gift?" Felix frowned slightly.
Whether it was Theon or Zayne, both were wealthy now, not poor students anymore, so how could they give Nyx such a shabby gift to appease her? Nyx widened her eyes in surprise. "This?" This was the gift he gave her.
The air froze for a few seconds as om her brain worked quickly. She suddenly realized she might have confused the gift. She thought, 'So, why on earth did the seemingly serious Felix givebunny ears?'
