Even though he had lost his memory and could not remember who she was, Aurelius was certain that such a person existed
The feeling lingered around him, unforgettable and deeply etched into his heart.
“I won’t attend the court ball, Aurelius lowered his gaze and suddenly spoke, Tve found a female I like?
The Emperor was puzzled. “When did this happen?”
Aurelius never mentioned it before.
“It was during these few days of losing control. I met her, Aurelius said solemnly, “Although I can’t recall her appearance right now, I must have her.”
This was absurd. The Emperor was shocked.
He thought, ‘It’s well known that during a male’s loss of control, his memories disappear as his consciousness revives, so how can Aurelius be sure such a female exists and isn’t just his imagination? What if this female didn’t exist? Would he just wait indefinitely?‘
Furthermore, even if this female did exist and they managed to find her, there was still a serious issue to consider.
Aurelius was a rare SS–level male, and there were currently no S–level females in the empire who could match him.
Because of this, the royal family had already prepared for the worst, which was to use their privilege to have Aurelius marry an A–level female.
While an A–level female’s calming effect on him was minimal, increasing the frequency of soothing and having one A–level female focus solely on him could at least delay his loss of control.
If the female Aurelius liked happened to be an A–level mental power, that would be ideal. But anywhere below that class was a disaster.
The Emperor asked, “If her mental power is below A–level, would you still insist on being with her?”
That would be tantamount to seeking death.
As the most qualified Crown Prince and the Emperor’s most favored successor, Aurelius had been sensible since childhood and always put the bigger picture first. He should not make such an irresponsible decision.
In response to his father’s questioning, Aurelius clenched his fists and remained silent.
The air became tense.
After a long silence, the Queen broke it, laughing and trying to smooth things over. “Maybe the female Aurelius likes is actually an A–level one!”
“In any case, let’s find her first,” the Queen asked Aurelius, “How much do you remember about her? Can you recall what she looked like? Do you remember her height or hair color?”
Unfortunately, Aurelius couldn’t remember any of it; he couldn’t recall anything at all.
This was troublesome.

The Queen furrowed her brow, suddenly recalling a previous fake news report about a widowed female raising a child alone.
The news had been deleted thoroughly, but the Queen thought the little white cat in the photo resembled Aurelius very much. ‘Could the female Aurelius liked be the one holding the cat?‘
Last time, the Queen had sent someone to contact the news editor, but no additional information was found.
This time, the Queen decided to take matters into her own hands, contacting the backers of the news agency directly and revealing her identity right away.
The other party immediately became respectful, saying, “What can I assist you with, Your Highness?”
However, when the Queen inquired about the fake news, the other party seemed embarrassed. “All backups have been completely cleared; there are really no other photos left.”
Although there were no photos, there were public aircraft records of the flight. If someone really wanted to investigate, they could trace the female’s identity.
But Aurelius stopped the Queen, saying, “Don’t investigate anymore, please.”
Without a legitimate reason, even the royal family couldn’t investigate an innocent female so publicly.
“Then you-” Queen hesitated, suspecting that he would give up. “Forget it; just think it over yourself.”
Aurelius would never give up.
He looked down, hiding what he was feeling.
The news agency’s boss ended the communication with Queen and immediately contacted Marshal Felix Lane.
The reason that fake news had been swiftly deleted was because Felix had come to warn the agency, sternly ordering them to keep any information about the female subject a secret.
But this time, the person trying to dig for information wasn’t just some ordinary individual; it was the Queen, the most prestigious person in the entire empire.
The news agency boss was drenched in sweat and quickly reported the matter to Felix. Then he sighed deeply, wiping the sweat from his forehead.
If he’d known someone that important would get involved, he wouldn’t have let that fake news get out, not in a million
years.
The news agency boss smiled bitterly and shook his head, thinking, ‘Who was that female with the kitten? Anyone who can get the attention of two big shots like that must be someone important.
This important female actually traveled on a Public Aircraft. Was she just trying to experience life?
The Queen herself was asking about the news-
‘Was she interested in Nyx? No way. Maybe it was about the cat.’
Felix lightly tapped the table with his fingers, pondering, before heading to knock on Nyx’s bedroom door.
The little female had just finished bathing, her hair still damp with steam. Her face was rosy like a ripe peach as she poked her head out from the room. “Felix?”

The same word “Felix” spoken by Theon was cold and stern, but when it came from Nyx, it carried a different kind of
sweetness.
Felix narrowed his eyes, suddenly thinking that perhaps her intimacy wasn’t bad at all.
“I heard you found that cat?” He asked Nyx.
Nyx had come to terms with Cotton Candy’s departure, but she still felt sad, pouting slightly before nodding in a slightly aggrieved manner, “I found it in the yard.”
As soon as Cotton Candy was mentioned, Nyx couldn’t stop herself from pouring out all the stories of the little cat accompanying her these days.
Felix listened quietly, without a trace of impatience, though he was growing more confused inside.
He suspected the royal family was knee–deep in secrets. The idea of them having some hidden way to transform a tiger into a cat didn’t seem so far–fetched. In fact, he had a hunch this cat was royalty–possibly even the Crown Prince himself. That would certainly explain the Queen’s personal interest.
But the cat Nyx described had a personality that was completely different from Aurelius.
Aurelius was calm and dignified, while this cat was clingy, playful, and even cried at times.
Felix frowned. ‘Could it be that I was overthinking it?‘
He cautiously asked her about the appearance of the little white cat. “What does it look like?”
“It has white fur, and its blue eyes are very beautiful,” Nyx said, raising her hand to gesture hair. “It has a clump of dark hair.”
“You don’t need to find it for me. It’ll come back when it misses me,” Nyx said confidently.
Hearing about the little white cat’s white fur, blue eyes, and the clump of dark hair, Felix’s suspicions seemed to be confirmed.
He didn’t want to break Nyx’s confidence and didn’t dare to tell her that perhaps the cat was actually a male Beastman of special status, and once it left, it might never come back.
Aurelius, who had returned to normal after his out–of–control state, wouldn’t remember this experience and would forget her entirely.
