Chapter 15 In this era, true believers were few and far between. But the myths and beliefs from ancient times still lingered, and sometimes people would casually say things to Beast God as a way to express surprise or offer a blessing.
3.69% A small group, though, still sincerely followed the faith. They believed the old stories that the Beast God occasionally sent messengers to help the beastmen through their toughest times.
The store owner was one of those believers. He was over 300 years old, middle-aged by beastmen standards, and yet he'd never seen a miracle in his long life. But today, he was witnessing one right before his eyes.
Zayne, being an atheist, couldn't understand what the store owner was thinking, but he did agree on one thing: Nyx was a miracle like no other in the universe.
The store owner's tic actions stirred the crowd. People were already in awe of Nyx, and now they were becoming outright obsessed. More and more eyes were following her, sfilled with fervent admiration.
+23 Nyx, on the other hand, felt the weight of all those eyes on her and instantly felt uncomfortable. She wasn't one to enjoy the spotlight, yet ever since arriving in this new world, she seemed to be the center of attention at every turn.
Luckily, clerks from the Supervision Office finally arrived. They cleared the crowd and let Nyx breathe a little easier.
But as the armed personnel moved in, the black mamba grew tense again. The snake bared its fangs and adopted an aggressive posture, ready to strike anyone who ctoo close with its deadly venom.
The clerks, experienced with dealing with out-of-control males like this, knew just how dangerous the black mamba could be. Even with all their weapons, they didn't dare make a move recklessly.
After all, they'd lost more than a few people in past encounters with these beasts, and injuries were almost a given.
Follow on NovᴇlEnglish.nᴇtThey were strategizing when, to everyone's shock, Nyx raised her hand, forced the black mamba's mouth shut, and warned, "Behave yourself." Then, as if talking to a kid, she added, "I don't like it when you bite. Biting's bad. You know?" Whether the snake understood or not was up for debate, but it didn't show its fangs again. Instead, it followed Nyx as she gently led it to the officers.
"Good boy," Nyx praised in a sweet voice.
The snake flicked its tongue, which was an obvious sign of contentment.
Its eyes fixed solely on Nyx. All the armed personnel standing nearby, tense and ready for anything, seemed to fade into the background.
Nyx was worried that the moment she left, the snake might resist being taken away, so she quickly cup with a plan. She grabbed the yellow shirt the snake had been wrapped around like a prized possession, tied the sleeves in a knot, and looped it around the mamba's body.
The black mamba seemed to love it. It wasn't a living creature, but the shirt carried Nyx's scent, and the warmth and softness were like the next best thing.
Nyx turned to the officers with a nod, signaling they could take the snake away now.

He's the victim here Someone in the crowd muttered under their breath, “Victim? Seriously?" "Males should pay for females and obey what the females say. It might not be his spouse, but it's his mother. He should listen to her," another voice argued.
"The young males nowadays are too fragile and rebellious..." Nyx frowned, her delicate brows knitting together. "Respect for females doesn't mean unconditional obedience.
"If a mother can't treat her children equally but exploits them, hits them every tsomething goes wrong, how is that right? "She made a mistake. Whether males or females, we all have to take responsibility for the mistakes we make." The crowd went quiet for a moment and then erupted into louder cheers.
"You're absolutely right!" "I can confirm! It was the female and her younger son who kept provoking him and even physically attacking him. They constantly pushed the victim's buttons until he snapped!" "I can testify too! I witnessed the whole thing!" "I'm with them! I even recorded a video!" In a corner, the little chubby guy and the bitter female who'd started all this suddenly realized they'd stirred up a hornet's nest. They shut their mouths and didn't dare speak up.
Of course, nobody paid them any attention.
The officers stepped forward, making it clear that they would consider all the evidence before making a fair judgment.
The captain, who was clearly in charge, leaned in to Nyx and whispered, "Excuse me, do you have ssort of ability to soothe out-of-control beastmen?" This kind of ability, from what they could tell, was totally unique in the empire-unlike any kind of soothing that other females could offer.
Nyx seemed to be doing almost nothing. She just stood there, but the effect was nothing short of miraculous. Nyx replied in a wary tone, "I just tend to get along with animals Basically, out-of-control beastmen were a lot like wild animals. They were aggressive and dangerous to everyone except her.
"You're too modest," said the captain. Others might not have noticed, but with all his experience dealing with out-of-control beastmen, he could tell. The black mamba had calmed down now, and its Loss of Control Index had clearly dropped below 80.
This wasn't just s“animal lover" thing-this was something totally new, a form of mental soothing that the empire had never seen before.
The captain asked, "Would you consider visiting our office? We'd like our researchers to run stests for you." 2/4 12:32 Sat. Feb 8 S'BB.
Chapter 15 Nyx's eyes widened, and she immediately backed up behind Zayne. "What are you planning to do?" Ever since she realized she was the only one who could see that strange black mist, she knew she was different.
69% +23) After all, she was a human who had hopped dimension into this world. She knew being a little special was no big surprise. But she worried it might lead to trouble.
If she paid a visit to the Supervision Office, they might want to run tests for her, take her blood, and even slice her open for research.
Zayne pulled her close and whispered softly, "Don't worry. You'll be fine."
Follow on Novᴇl-Onlinᴇ.cᴏmThe empire's only major mistake had been trying to artificially breed females, and that disaster had hit the empire hard. Since then, they had sworn off any unethical research. Not even males or criminals would be used as test subjects- especially not precious females. The captain, however, looked horrified. He seemed even more nervous than Nyx. Being questioned by a female had clearly shaken him to the core.
With a trembling voice, he swore, "I swear on my life, the Supervision Office will never hurt you!" In his mind, he couldn't even wait to protect her like a treasure.
What they wanted was just to confirm if Nyx's ability really existed.
m If it did, Nyx would be the empire's ope and normnky would be ope and only treasure. Even the royal family would have to treat her with the utmost respect and honor her as a guest of the highest rank. As for unethical experiments... those kinds of things were only done by the notorious interstellar pirates, not by the empire! Since she wouldn't be cut open and experimented on, Nyx was curious about her unique abilities. Reluctantly, she agreed to the captain's invitation.
At the office, the director personally greeted her, and the staff were all respectful and courteous.
Nyx underwent a full checkup with Zayne at her side. No harm cto her, not even a blood draw. They did nothing but just a thorough and entirely non-invasive examination. Nyx felt a little guilty for misjudging them.
The test results cback quickly, and everyone present was stunned.
A clerk said while staring at the report, "This is... A-level? No, wait, this is even beyond A-level!" "She hasn't even fully awakened yet, and her mental fluctuations already this strong," someone added.
Another clerk chimed in, "Are we actually witnessing the birth of an S-level female?" Someone else said, “Maybe she's even more than that. She could be beyond S-level...” 12:32 Sat, Feb 8 BBB.
