Jaws was at a loss. After hesitating for a moment, he cautiously kissed Nyx’s check.
The moment he thought of taking things further, his mind went blank, gradually losing all ability to think.
Nyx cooperatively tilted her face up, waiting for him to continue, only to find that he didn’t move any further, seeming dazed.
This wasn’t how she imagined Jaws at all. He could talk endlessly, but when given the chance, he seemed even more inexperienced than anyone else. The strong contrast gave Nyx a strange feeling.
“Didn’t you say before that I could tie you up?” she pinched his ear and raised an eyebrow.

This was something Jaws had said back when he pretended to be dead, even daring to say it in front of others. He deserved to be scolded by Felix.
Jaws lowered his head, recalling the scene.
He felt like Nyx might want to settle the score with him, but still calmly admitted, “Yes.”
The more he acted out of character–honest and submissive–the less Nyx wanted to let him off the hook. She raised her hand and pushed him. “Alright, keep your hands behind your back and stay like this. Don’t move.”
She wouldn’t tie him up. Whether he moved or not was up to him.
“Okay,” Jaws responded in a muffled voice.
He wouldn’t move. He would do whatever Nyx said. Having done wrong, he accepted the punishment, and she could deal with him however she wanted.
Just as he made up his mind, he watched helplessly as Nyx threw a piece of clothing at him. Then, another piece came. Nyx
kept throwing her clothes at him one after another.
She thought, ‘Don’t you want my es? Didn’t you use my coat for bad things? Take it! Take them all!”
Nyx’s scent hit him all at once. To Jaws, this was clearly a reward. He froze for a moment, his already wavering resolve almost collapsing.
unaby Carly.
With his hands tied behind his back and unable to move, he tried to catch it with his face.
His strong body, trained on the battlefield, was fully put to use here, and he managed to grab one right away.
Nyx stared in shock, her movements halting suddenly. She thought, “This guy looks more like a large animal than the high and mighty Space Pirates leader.‘
“Didn’t I tell you not to move?” she said, trying to pull the small piece of clothing from Jaws‘ mouth.
She meant for Jaws to stay still and let the clothes hit him, but she didn’t expect him to not dodge and instead welcome it.
Jaws pleaded with his red eyes as he shook his head vigorously, unwilling to let go.
He couldn’t possibly return a reward he had barely gotten his hands on.
“You’re even more disobedient than I am,” Nyx muttered, neither too harsh nor too soft.
Even so, she indulged Jaws and didn’t forcibly take the clothes back.

It was just a pajama, after all. It wouldn’t hurt to give it to him.
Jaws secretly sighed in relief. But soon he realized he had relaxed too soon.
Nyx could easily find countless ways to torment him. Even if she did nothing and just quietly stayed by his side, every fiber of his being would feel challenged.
Nyx was right in front of him, but he wasn’t allowed to do anything. It was pure torture.
Nyx watched Jaws fidget for a while, and then casually played with the Intelligent Brain, thus ignoring him.
Ten minutes passed. Jaws gritted his teeth, the fabric in his mouth making a sound as he stared intensely at Nyx.
His gaze was so intense that it was impossible to ignore, and Nyx could feel it, leaving her slightly flustered.
But she kept her cool, speaking slowly, “If you beg me, I might consider it.”
“Please.” Before Nyx could finish, Jaws immediately begged, “Nyx, Please.”
Seeing his voice tremble, almost on the verge of tears, Nyx was satisfied and waved her hand, declaring he was forgiven.
In the next second, everything spun.
The beast’s ferocity had been suppressed for too long, making it easy to snap back.
Jaws was never the type to suffer quietly; once wronged, he’d quickly get his revenge tenfold.
When leaving Central Planet, he couldn’t hide his joy. It didn’t feel like he was heading out on a mission–it felt more like a
vacation.
-Jaws‘ subordinate was confused. He thought, ‘Why is he so happy about cleaning up Edmund’s mess?‘
When his eyes fell on the marks on Jaws‘ arm, he suddenly realized.
He compared Nyx’s delicate frame with Jaws‘ massive size and silently gasped. He thought, ‘No way!‘
“What are you thinking?” Jaws‘ soft voice was full of threat.
His subordinate froze, shivering. “N–nothing! I wasn’t thinking of anything! It’s just… Well… Is Lord Nyx okay?”
Jaws paused for a moment. “Of course, she’s fine.”
“You’re not allowed to think about her anymore,” he sternly warned his subordinate. There were already many males around Nyx, so he thought no more could be added.
The subordinate gave a sheepish smile. “Got it, boss.”
Even if he was asked to, he wouldn’t dare to have any inappropriate thoughts about Nyx.
To be a rival to Jaws, he had to be at Black Mamba’s level. He didn’t have the strength.

At the Koganor Federation, ever since their last failed attack on the Empire—which ended in heavy losses and the capture of their general–the nation had been on a downward spiral, descending into chaos.
Many members saw the situation worsening and declared independence, withdrawing from this doomed war. The once

massive Federation quickly split apart, but the remaining members were determined not to give up.
“That SSS–level female has returned to the Empire’s Central Planet,” someone mentioned this crucial point during a military meeting. “Without her interference, AeroMist might truly show its effectiveness, we can try again.”
The room fell silent. Many of them had already developed a fear of Nyx.
“Don’t be too pessimistic, the Empire won’t allow her to return to the battlefield. The war faction tried to calm everyone’s emotions. “Besides, she must have been badly injured, she might even be dead.”
Their undercover agent had successfully attacked Nyx, and the Neutron Lance hit her fatal spot in the chest.
Although subsequent intelligence reports said Nyx was fine and had returned to Central Planet, they thought that was likely just false information spread by the Empire to maintain stability.
After the meeting, most were convinced. They had no other options left but to go all in.
