It wasn’t always like this. People used to say different things.

Back then, plenty of folks on StarNet thought she wasn’t good enough for Theon and Zayne because she was just a female without any mental power.
But now that Nyx had awakened her mental power, these same people had flipped their script and started nitpicking the males around her.
It was just human nature to admire strength, and that was how things had always rolled in the Beastmen Empire. But seeing those attacks on Theon and Zayne, Nyx couldn’t stay silent.
She was the kind of person who stuck up for her own.
Normally, gentle Nyx avoided conflicts, but this time, she was furious and dived right into the thread, hitting reply at the bottom. [Theon and Zayne don’t need to step aside for anyone. They will always be the most important people to me!]
The exclamation mark showed just how upset she was.
After sending that reply, Nyx let out a long breath, shut down her Intelligent Brain, and tried to avoid the hassle. Little did she know that StarNet had already exploded because of her personal appearance.
[Lord Nyx!]
[Whoa… She’s here…]
[Is she mad?]
[People who talk nonsense should shut up. Stop meddling in the female’s love life.]
[Daring to mock Theon and Zayne? He’s an S–level male. What are you, trash?]
[How many SS–levels are there in the Beastmen Empire? An S–level is already amazing. Way better than you.]
[Always supporting Lord Nyx…]
[She’s not the type to be fickle. She’s loyal.]
[Hey, I’m so jealous.]
Theon and Zayne are so lucky.]
(Why can’t I be the one with such good fortune?]
Every little move and word of the SSS–level female set the mood for the entire Beastmen Empire, Any comments that upset Nyx were instantly drowned in a flood of condemnation.
The people behind those posts were trembling with fear, quickly deleting their words and apologizing non–stop under Nyxs

There was a son knock on Nyx’s door, and Zayne’s voice came through. “Asleep already, Nyx?‘ His voice was filled with a mix
of emotions.

Chapter 72
Nyx opened the door to see Theon and Zayne standing there.
Zayne’s usually calm face was now brimming with emotion.
The more impulsive guy Theon was even more obvious, with red eyes and jumbled words. “Thank you, Nyx…”
He was grateful that she didn’t look down on them. They had seen the storm on StarNet.

They didn’t care about being ridiculed by others, but they cared deeply about what Nyx thought. Even though they knew Nyx wasn’t the type to value gene levels highly, they still couldn’t help but feel ashamed and worried.
‘Do we really deserve to be by her side?‘ they thought.
Nyx was taken aback for a moment, then pursed her lips in a mix of helplessness and determination.
And then, right in front of Zayne and Theon’s disbelieving eyes, she stood on her tiptoes and hugged them both.
The huge difference in size made the hug look a bit awkward.
But the two males being hugged were completely immersed in the moment, vowing to remember it forever.
They were willing to give everything they had for Nyx.
Nyx gently comforted them. “Stop overthinking. Come on, let me do some Mental Soothing for you guys.”
She wanted to see if her mental body would grow.
Mental Soothing? Hearing this, Theon and Zayne were momentarily stunned, their hearts racing and excitement bubbling up involuntarily.
Young males were easily stirred up, especially when they were already feeling amorous.
To them, Nyx’s words sounded like she was planning to have sex with them.
It took them a good while to calm down, and only then did they finally realize that Nyx’s Mental Soothing was different from other females; it wasn’t about mating.
Theon’s face was flushed as he tried to hide his embarrassment,
Zayne was the first to snap out of it, quickly transforming into the Snow Wolf and lying down at Nyx’s feet. His gray–blue eyes stared up at Nyx without blinking, not wanting to miss a single moment.
From the corner of the hallway, Felix stood in the shadows, watching the scene intently.
The atmosphere between Nyx and the two young males was incredibly intimate.
She was so relaxed in front of them, petting the Snow Wolf and he lion with one hand each, occasionally chatting softly as if she had endless things to say.
A brand–new, intense emotion hit Marshal Lane like a tidal wave
Words like desire, jealousy, and anxiety, which had never been part of his world before, now surrounded him, making it hard to breathe.

He knew that in Nyx’s heart, he was far behind Theon and Zayne, and that was only natural.
But today, he had seen those photos and videos circulating on StarNet.

Nyx had been just as close with Aurelius during their date, even riding on the White Tiger and petting it constantly.
Felix had never received such treatment.
Felix’s eyes dimmed.
Nyx had no idea that Felix was nearby. After completing two Mental Soothings in a row, she felt refreshed and happy as she went back to her bedroom to check her progress.
Sure enough, the sapling had grown a bit more, and the cumulative growth was quite significant. What was once a tiny sprout now had leaves the size of her thumb.
It seemed that using her mental power regularly not only didn’t harm her mental body but actually made it stronger.
Nyx’s eyes brightened. This was a virtuous cycle.
In the Beastmen Empire, the ratio of females to males was an astonishing 1:80. Countless males went their entire lives without receiving Mental Soothing from a female, eventually becoming mindless beasts and dying in agony.
‘If I can soothe more people… she wondered. Nyx was lost in thought when there was another knock on the door. ‘Is it Zayne again? Or Theon?‘
But when she opened the door, she was startled. “Hello, Felix.”
Standing outside was the impeccably dressed Felix.
After a moment to compose herself, Nyx tentatively invited him in. “Felix, do you need Mental Soothing?”
As soon as Nyx finished speaking, Felix suddenly bowed and knelt before her. “I am here to atone.”
Nyx’s eyes widened in shock.
She couldn’t believe that the mighty Beastmen Empire Marshal was kneeling before her.
This wasn’t just a casual kneel; it was an extremely humble posture as if he was abandoning all his dignity just to beg for her forgiveness.
The last time Nyx had seen such a kneel was with Theon.
She wondered if this was some kind of inherited apology style between the uncle and nephew, which left her both frightened and confused.
Atone? Why is he atoning to me? He hasn’t done anything wrong Nyx thought.
Under Nyx’s bewildered gaze, Felix lowered his eyes and began listing his so–called sins one by one. “First, I once harbored prejudices against you and made many baseless remarks in the video with Theon.
“Second, I initiated physical contact with you several times without your consent, which was disrespectful. Third, I talsely claimed you as my matron in public. Fourth…”
Stop Nyx interrupted, covering his mouth with lier hand. Their seemed to thicken between them

It was rare for Nyx to look down at someone, especially a man who was usually so dominant.

At that moment, she was even covering Felix’s mouth with her hand, and Felix didn’t resist. He just looked up at her, his eyes filled with her image. In that instant, an unprecedented sense of dominance surged through Nyx.
Her heartbeat skipped a beat.
