It looked as if fierce hounds were chasing it outside. Truly, all of Merrick’s subordinates shared the same quirky traits.

“Captain Sterling, is this your pet?”

The beastman soldier seeking treatment stared blankly at the furry creature. It wagged its tail casually and hopped onto a chair with ease.

Gillian shot it a calm glance. Tristan tensed up at once and drew back his wandering paws, sitting upright properly.

He wondered what had gotten into Gillian. Her sharp gaze made his fine fur stand on end.

He sized her up with round eyes, sensing some subtle change about her and a strange new aura lingering around her.

He lifted his nose to sniff the air, yet failed to figure out what exactly was different.

Seeing Tristan keep his paws in check, Gillian turned back to greet the patient. “He is a casual pet I keep around.”

“This creature is quite unusual indeed.”

The soldier eyed the fluffy fox with a peculiar look, thinking Gillian had rather unique hobbies.

Tristan’s mouth twitched inwardly.

He had once worried about his daily supplies being cut off, yet now she spoke such sharp remarks without hesitation.

This sharp-tongued female would never meet misfortune easily; she was far too tough to be worn down. He knew all those rumors were nothing but empty talk, and he wished to teach those gossipers a lesson.

Gillian suddenly turned her head toward the fox.

Tristan immediately wore an innocent grin, putting on a harmless act.

Gillian could not help wondering if memory loss truly altered one’s temperament.

The fox no longer snapped back, even when being teased as a pet. Was it holding back its true intent, waiting for a chance to strike?

Gillian felt rather unused to such mild behavior from him.

Onboard the Griffin Warship, Merrick steadied his breath and looked at the mysterious pattern again. Its potent influence faded greatly this time.

He could no longer sink his mind into its power flow.

It seemed the pattern only worked once, bringing powerful benefits merely at first sight.

He glanced around the quiet cabin and decided to share this special experience with others.

He sent the picture straight to Lucian.

“Lucian, take a look at this rare find and give it a try.”

Lucian kept a blank expression. He could easily tell Merrick had no good intentions.

His wrist terminal vibrated, making him wonder what tricky trick was coming next.

Even so, he could not help opening the image without hesitation.

The moment the pattern appeared before him, Lucian fell into a deep trance instantly.

Merrick wore a satisfied smile and closed his wrist terminal.

He would never bear such unique sensations alone. He even hummed a light tune out of sheer comfort.

Finn and Adrian watched curiously, eager to know what mysterious item it was.

“Be patient, your turn will come soon. It is quite enjoyable.”

Merrick kept a faint smile and held back his amusement.

Adrian grew eager to experience it himself.

Finn thought Merrick had become far more unrestrained ever since settling down with his partner.

Before long, Lucian snapped out of the trance. His limbs went limp all at once, and he collapsed onto the floor, gasping heavily.

“Can you handle the power well, Lucian?”

Merrick sat with legs crossed, tidied the cuffs of his outfit, and spoke in a half-joking tone.

Lucian took a deep breath. Instead of flying into a rage, he spoke in a low, grateful voice. “Thank you, Commander.”

Merrick felt rather pleased upon hearing this sincere thanks. “Lucian, since you are so thankful, get me a fine new chair. I want the rare Cryostarfall wood kept in your father’s private collection.”

“Cut it out right now!”

Lucian shut his eyes helplessly, filled with endless frustration.

He even wished to lean close and tease Merrick that his partner had left him behind.
