Under the sympathetic gazes, Thomas couldn’t help but retort, “My matron is really gentle now, she treats me very well.
Before he could finish, someone let out a derisive laugh and patted his shoulder. “Alright, stop talking.”
Thomas’s protest was taken as him trying to act tough. Not wanting to dig deeper into his sore spot, everyone changed the subject and got back to work.
Thomas felt frustrated, sitting back at his desk, sulking the entire day. His colleagues could see his reaction and it only confirmed that he wasn’t really doing well and was just forcing a smile.
Just before the end of the workday, a sudden commotion outside the company spread like wildfire throughout the entire
office.
“A female?”
“How could a female be here?”
“She’s sitting down. Is she waiting for someone?”
“Waiting for someone??”
“Who is she waiting for?”
As they were gossiping, a figure suddenly rushed towards the female like the wind. When they looked closely, the colleagues. were stunned.
“Thomas?”
“Is that Thomas’s matron?”
Colleagues who were familiar with Thomas couldn’t help but lean over to listen to what was happening over there.
“You… you came?” Thomas stammered, cautiously taking the matron’s hand, overwhelmed with surprise.
The matron raised an eyebrow and said, “I promised, didn’t I? I said I would come to the company today to find you. Are you off work? Then hurry up and go, I’ve been out playing all day, I’m exhausted, hurry up and get home.”
Hearing the female’s clear and cheerful voice, and seeing her kind and pleasant attitude, the onlookers were stunned and couldn’t snap out of it for a long time.
The colleagues who had stubbornly refused to believe in Thomas before were now speechless, exchanging awkward glances. They thought, “When did Thomas’s matron become so mild–tempered?”
A female this gentle–there probably weren’t many like her across the Empire. Scenes like this were playing out not just here, but in several places across the Empire.
Many males had been feeling very pleased with themselves lately, not just because their matron’s damaged mental power had been healed, but also because their treatment from the matron had vastly improved compared to before.
Those who knew them were naturally shocked. One spread to ten, ten to a hundred. The gossip kept spreading, and soon discussions were buzzing all over StarNet.
[Could it be that their temperament improves after interacting with Lord Nyx?]

Maybe it’s because their mental injuries were healed, so they’re in a better mood.]
[That makes sense.]
But they didn’t seem this gentle before they were hurt.]
[When will my matron be this gentle with me? Praying]

Outside the window, the sun was shining brightly. Nyx finished the last treatment for a female, finally completing all her work and feeling a sense of relief.
She slumped back into her chair, stretched, took the water cup from Theon, drank a few sips, and opened her Intelligent Brain to browse StarNet.
She hadn’t gone out during this time and had stayed at the manor, treating the females every day. Yet, there were still many posts about her on StarNet. Her popularity hadn’t dropped at all, with voices constantly calling for her appearance.
[Why hasn’t Lord Nyx been going out lately?]
[And no updates either.]
[Still praying for Lord Nyx to show up today.]
[How about posting some photos or videos?]
[Please.]
[Begging Lord Nyx to do a live stream again.]
Countless males eagerly awaited Nyx’s appearance. Even though they knew they had no chance of becoming her mate, she was still their dream matron, and they’d be satisfied as long as they saw more updates about her.
Even males with mates secretly hoped that Nyx would appear more often, wishing their own matron would be influenced and become gentler. After all, many of the females who had been treated by Nyx and interacted with her had changed their temperaments.
The endless requests began to overwhelm Nyx. Nyx was rendered speechless.
She never really wanted to be an internet celebrity, but her fanbase kept growing. The voices of anticipation were so strong that she couldn’t ignore them. She felt like she should respond somehow.
‘Maybe I should post a few photos? But randomly posting selfies felt a little strange, she thought. After struggling with the decision, she had lunch and slowly walked through the manor’s small garden.
The weather was clear, and the sun was warm on her skin. Suddenly, she had a brilliant idea. “Theon.”
The blonde male was waiting nearby, hearing her call and coming over to await her instructions. Nyx took a small comb from her Space Button and smiled, “Do you want me to groom your fur?”
his back. It seemed like Nyx
Theon’s cars turned red instantly. Since Nyx first brushed his fur, he couldn’t help but flip onto had taken a liking to this activity, often brushing him from time to Of course, he actually liked it too.
On this bright, sunny afternoon, many people who had little hope but habitually checked Nyx’s personal page were shocked to discover–Nyx was live streaming.
In an instant, billions of viewers flooded into the live stream room. Hundreds of billions, even trillions… the server was

almost overwhelmed and nearly crashed.
Although Nyx was no longer the easily scared little Earthling she once was, seeing these dizzying numbers still left her a bit stunned.
On the huge light screen, despite shrinking the font to the smallest size and setting the filter to maximum, the barrage of comments was so dense and layered that she couldn’t read them at all.
She shrugged her shoulders, gave up on reading the comments, and greeted everyone, “Good afternoon, everyone.”
Nyx had never seen how other female influencers in the Empire live–streamed. In her impression, the streamers on Earth were always active, engaging with their viewers, so she tried to follow their example. Even though she felt nervous, she made an effort to appear calm and cheerful.
After her previous streaming experience, she was a little more relaxed this time and even waved at the viewers while greeting them. The Empire’s audience had never seen such a down–to–earth female streamer. In an instant, the sweet smile that greeted them struck the viewers‘ hearts.
[Good afternoon, Lord Nyx!]
[She’s is live. I’m so happy, so happy!]
[I’m really over the moon to see Lord Nyx!]
[I screamed so loud at home that my neighbors came over to check on me, but when they saw the stream, they screamed with me!]
[Good afternoon, so good!]
[Waaah, so happy, finally not waiting in vain!]
[So cute, Lord Nyx.]
[I’m going to pass out!]
The feeling of being in the live stream was completely different from watching a replay. The intense interaction made Nyx feel closer and more alive, far more endearing than in the recorded videos.
Nyx found a comfortable spot on the soft grass, sat down, and waved her hand to the side, “Theon.”
At her call, a handsome and sturdy golden lion appeared on the screen. In front of the astonished audience, Nyx wrapped her arms around the lion’s big head, laid it down on her soft lap.
Every witness was shocked.
