Chapter 167 

To the adjutant’s surprise, the Space Pirates made no attempt to land on 19783 Star. They even kept their distance, showing no signs of hostility. 

“Just keep watching them.” Felix rejected the adjutant’s suggestion to strike first. 

The adjutant remained skeptical, keeping a wary eye on the pirates‘ movements. 

The night passed without incident. 

At dawn, the alarm for an enemy attack blared. The adjutant was shocked to see that the Space Pirates, who had been quiet all night, were now on the move. He knew these guys weren’t up to anything good. 

Just as he was about to report to Felix, he was stunned to realize that the pirates weren’t attacking them at all. Instead, they bypassed their forces and launched an assault on the Koganor Federation. 

The Koganor Federation had been caught completely off guard. 

“How is this possible?” Edmund was dumbfounded. “They’re Space Pirates!” 

He thought, ‘When the Empire is in trouble, these pirates should have been taking advantage of the chaos, not interfering. Even if they refuse to help an invading force, they should’ve just stayed out of it. So why are they suddenly getting involved? 

the 

“Lord Edmund, your acting skills are quite impressive–you almost make it seem like this has nothing to do with Koganor Federation general sneered. “We just received a message from the Space Pirates. They’re demanding that we hand you over.” 

Edmund thought, ‘Who would have thought that I, as a former duke, is in such a dire situation in the Beastmen Empire that even the Space Pirates want me dead? 

Are Koganor Federation really supposed to put a universally hated puppet emperor on the throne? Just what kind of grudge does Jaws have against me? 

I have been hiding for years, never daring to provoke the Space Pirates. Why would Jaws want to kill me? 

‘Right. It must be due to Nyx. 

‘It has to be that little female who seduced Jaws, making the Space Pirates‘ leader furious on her behalf. 

With these thoughts, Edmund ordered, regaining his composure, “Send a message to that Space Pirates leader. Tell him I mean no harm to Nyx. Once I take over the Empire, I’m willing to share Nyx with him.” 

After all, the Space Pirates and the Empire were still enemies. Nyx belonged to the Empire, meaning Jaws couldn’t have her. By offering this deal, Edmund was sure Jaws would take the bait. 

When the message arrived, Jaws was in the middle of negotiations with Felix. 

The moment he saw the word “share,” his smile froze, and a murderous glint flashed in his eyes. 

“I’ll pledge allegiance to the Empire under one condition,” he said, cutting straight to the point. “I want to kill Edmund with my own hands.” 

Felix understood. “Agreed.” 

A guy like Edmund didn’t need to be taken back to the Empire for trial–he could be executed on the spot. 

Given the deep–seated hatred between Jaws and Edmund, it was only fair to let Jaws do the honors.

“I’ll do everything I can to assist you,” Felix promised.

When the message reached the Koganor Federation’s general, he was furious. Not only had the Space Pirates refused to be swayed, but their attacks had also become even more ruthless.. 

He didn’t bother questioning Edmund and instead reported the situation directly, urging the Federation to reassess Edmund’s value and reconsider their alliance. 

In this battle, the Koganor Federation suffered a crushing defeat and had to retreat in disarray. 

The victory report was sent back to the military, and then to Aurelius, and finally to Nyx. 

The news that Jaws had unified all the Space Pirates and pledged allegiance to the Empire shocked the entire nation. 

[Who? Jaws?] 

[No way.] 

[Actually, it’s not impossible. He did personally escort Lord Nyx back to the Empire before.] 

[Don’t tell me he surrendered for Lord Nyx?] 

[Did he just give up everything for love?] 

[The Space Pirates‘ leader is actually a lovesick fool?] 

[I don’t buy it.] 

[This is way too ridiculous. Hope it’s not a trick.]

Since Jaws had surrendered, his bionic body had been released–though it was still equipped with monitoring devices to prevent betrayal. 

When Nyx hurried over, she locked eyes with Jaws‘ smiling gaze. 

Jaws seemed to have been waiting for her. “Are you here to take me home?” 

He was as shameless as ever, immediately leaning in close to Nyx. “Once you take this bionic body home, at most, you can kiss and hug me. Anything more is off–limits. 

“Even if you miss me, you have to wait until I come to Central Planet. Then, you can do whatever you want to me.” 

Nyx blushed and pushed him away slightly. “You’re not my mate yet.” 

Jaws savored her words, his grin widening in satisfaction. He thought, ‘Not yet? That means I can be–sooner or later, I will be.’ 

“How’s the frontline? Are you and Felix safe?” Nyx couldn’t help but ask. “When will you be back?” 

In war, there was no such thing as absolute safety, and Jaws couldn’t predict how long this battle would last. 

Edmund hadn’t been handed over yet, which meant Koganor’s alliance with him was still intact. They weren’t giving up would likely strike again.

Jaws gently reassured her. Il come back as soon as can. Don’t worry. With you waiting for me at home. I wouldnt dare to 

die.”

Nyx was silent for a moment before murmuring, “I want to come find you. The frontlines probably have a lot of people who need Mental Soothing, right?” 

She thought she could be useful too. 

Jaws‘ smile stiffened. He pinched her check lightly and said, “Don’t be reckless.” 

Males were born to protect females. The battlefield was their domain, and no female should ever set foot in such a dangerous place. 

Besides, Nyx was an unparalleled SSS–level female. She couldn’t risk her life. 

Nyx sighed. Lately, all the males in her family had been busy, leaving her with nothing to do. She couldn’t sit still. 

As soon as Jaws stepped inside, the house felt empty and quiet.
