Dora took the reward voucher and asked the staff. “So, how do I use these interstellar citizen points?”

The staff explained patiently, “If you ever run into a disaster or need help from the government you can use these interstellar citizen points.”

Dora nodded, and as she turned, she happened to see Clive and the others coming out of the military affairs hall

‘It’s all taken care of,” Clive said as he walked over to her. “The military will arrange for someone to take them nome

Dora nodded, her gaze sweeping over the people in the hall who were still sneaking glances at them. We should head ba

Outside the hovercar window, the outline of Zone 32 slowly faded, finally vanishing into the rainy haze.

Inside, it was quiet.

Elmer was leaning against the window, fast asleep, still hugging Lioren’s tail. Lioren, for once, let him hold it, his cat ears witching every now and then.

Rafe had his eyes closed, relaxing, while the ice crystals at his fingertips drew shapes on the window.

Clive kept his attention on the road, his eyes occasionally flicking to Dora in the back seat through the rearview mirror. Dora stared out the window at the scenery flashing past, suddenly feeling as if she’d lived through another lifetime Five days and four nights in Zone 32, so much life and death, so many trials and rewards, and above all, so many bends

We’re almost home,” Clive said from the front seat.

Dora came back to herself, and her eyes landed on the familjar pale blue shield in the distance, that was her homestead the

nome.

The hovercar slowly landed at the front door.

‘Seven, we’re back!” Dora called out.

The moment the door opened, a white figure came flying at them, it was Seven, the robot butler

Its screen was filled with exaggerated stars and hearts. “Masters! You’re finally back! Seven missed you so much

Elmer was knocked off balance by the hug, but he just laughed and ruffled Seven’s metal head. We missed cole Jose

Seven wriggled out of Elmer’s arms, and its screen flashed with question marks. Oh, right, masters, there’s sineens At home…”

Before Seven could finish, steady footsteps sounded from inside the house

A tall man in a milita; y uniform appeared at the door way

He looked to be about thirty, with sharp brows and piercing eyes, his aura icy and for budding

His dark green military uniform was spotless, and the insignia on his shoulders were unfammhar te Dora

What Minni on the most were his eyes, those pale gold irises, sharp as a hawks, but when they met Dora’s a fleeting semleness softened them for just a moment.

“You’re back” His voice was deep and steady

Dora froze for a second.

Seven piped up. “Masters, this is Lucian Golding

“Seven’s got his info, he’s your fifth beast mate.”

Lucian.

The military commander who always wired money but never showed up in person, so mysterious, fre was like a ghost nobody had ever seen.

The four gazes behind Dora all turned a little awkward at the same time.

Clive’s eyes grew colder.

Lioren’s cat ears pricked up.

Elmer’s puppy eyes went wide as saucers.

Rafe still had that smile on his lips, but a sharp glint flashed in his blue eyes.

Lucian didn’t seem to notice any of their gazes. He simply moved aside to clear the doorway. “Come in. Its cold out

Dora took a deep breath and stepped inside ahead of the others.

The four males followed in single file behind her, and a subtle tension hung in the air.

In the living room, Seven already had hot coffee and snacks ready.

Lucian settled onto the sofa, totally relaxed, like he owned the place.

Well, technically, he did, after all, he was the owner here, Dora’s legal beast mate.

“When did he get here?” Dora whispered to Seven.

“He showed up at 9:37 this morning,” Seven replied.

Elmer just stared, lost for words.

Lioren’s tail froze.

Clive’s eyes narrowed slightly.

Rafe let out a soft “oh” his vol e rising with a meaningful twist

Dora took a deep breath

After fightsag her way out of Zone 32, surviving kidnappings, beast swarms, Shadow Demon Beasts, and attacks from level seven alien beasts, she thought nothing could scare her anymore

But standing there, staring him down for three seconds, his aura was so intense, it sull made her feel a bit nerwhelmed

then she simied,

It wasn’t a polite smile, it was the kind that said, “Okay, you’ve got my attention.”

The group stood around, each in their own way, all eyes fixed on Lucian, who sat on the sofa radiating authority

Elmer kept opening and closing his mouth, but never managed to say a word.

Lioren’s tail flicked in annoyance.

Clive didn’t say a word, but the atmosphere around him dropped a few degrees.

Rafe was still smiling, but that smile never reached his eyes.

‘Seven,” Dora called out, “get dinner ready.

‘Add another set of dishes for him.”

Seven’s lights blinked with excitement.

‘Got it, master! Seven will get right on it!”

‘I heard about what went down in Zone 32,” Lucian said, cutting right to the chase. His pale gold eyes locked onto Dora” did a great job.”

Dora sat across from him, not rushing to answer. Instead, she took a moment to size up this legendary commander.

His uniform was sharp and spotless, his aura low-key but intense. He sat like someone who’d been calling the shots for ver

But the way he looked at her, it wasn’t judgment, and it wasn’t the coldness of a stranger.

It was a weird, almost familiar gentleness, like they’d known each other forever.

How did you find out about what went down in Zone 32?” Dora asked.

The military sent out a notice,” Lucian said, keeping it brief. “The info you reported was really valuable

A subtle tension hung in the living room, like a taut string stretched to its limit.

Right on cue, Seven appeared and cut through the awkward atmosphere. Masters, dinner’s ready Tune arca

Dinner was a lot quieter than usual.
