Theon opened his mouth to argue but barely managed to say a no when a noise from the next room cut him off, followed by Zayne’s frantic voice. He instantly jumped up and hurried over. 

“What’s going on?” The moment he stepped in, he saw Nyx curled up in bed, eyes shut, while Zayne was digging through their medical supplies to carefully run some checkups on her. 

“Nykie took a fall. She said she suddenly felt really dizzy,” Zayne explained, his tone full of concern. 

Theon didn’t have the energy to wonder when Zayne had gotten close enough to start calling her “Nykie“. 

“Why is she suddenly feeling dizzy again?” Theon asked, his brow furrowed.

Before Zayne could answer, Felix’s voice came through loud and clear. “Intermittent dizziness is a classic symptom before a female’s mental power awakens. Could she be about to go through a second awakening?” 

Even though it was a rare occurrence–one in a few hundred years–there had been cases in history where a female’s mental power failed to awaken at 18, only to later experience a second awakening. 

Zayne raised his eyebrows at Theon. Only then did Theon realize he’d forgotten to end the video call. Without thinking, he just hung up. 

Seeing that, Zayne shook his head and asked, “Marshal Lane gave you trouble again?” 

Zayne had known Theon for many years, yet he never understood why Theon and his uncle always came into conflicts despite their close relationship. 

Theon shot Zayne a cold look and explained, “He’s trying to break up me and Nyx.” 

Zayne nodded and replied, “Nykie doesn’t have mental power, and with your high Loss of Control Index, it’s no wonder they pulled you from the front lines. Felix is just worried about you.” 

When a male’s emotions ran high, their Loss of Control Index would go through the roof. On the battlefield, with all the stress and constant violence, military men were among the most prone to losing control. They were just not suited for pairing up with females who lacked mental power. 

Theon said nothing but just stayed quiet. 

Zayne didn’t want to dig deeper into sensitive topics, so he focused back to analyze the data carefully. 

When Nyx fell asleep, they left her room. Zayne told Theon, “Your uncle is right. Nykie is very likely experiencing the second awakening. She even has shown some mental power fluctuation. Her intermittent dizziness has something to do with this.” 

By the time Nyx woke up, it was already evening. Seeing the two males waiting outside her door, she felt a little embarrassed. 

“Did I scare you guys?” she asked, a bit sheepishly. “I just have low blood sugar sometimes. It’s nothing serious.” 

Zayne chuckled and said, “It’s indeed nothing serious, but it’s not just low blood sugar. You might be on the verge of a second awakening.” 

It was actually great news. All the females wished they could have mental power, and a higher mental power level meant

higher social status and more respect. Thus, they could have stronger males as their spouses and lead a better life. 

The two of them had already planned how to celebrate it, expecting Nyx to be over the moon about the news. But when she heard it, her expression was anything but thrilled. She looked almost awkward. 

Nyx had no idea how Zayne had come to the conclusion that she was about to awaken. She thought he must have misdiagnosed her. After all, she was a human, and humans couldn’t get mental power. 

But seeing the two of them so happy about it, Nyx didn’t have the heart to correct them. She just hoped they wouldn’t be too disappointed later. 

Zayne adjusted his glasses and gave her a reassuring smile. “From now on, you need to eat regularly, okay? And make sure to get plenty of nutrients. Regular supplements won’t cut it for you. I’ve already ordered a batch of special ones, custom–made for your needs.” 

Thinking about how Nyx seemed to have an unusually strong craving for good food, Theon nodded. He remembered that this was a trait common to all females–they couldn’t stand bland, tasteless nutrient packs and preferred real, natural food 

It was just perfect. In his younger days, Theon had aced cooking classes and was something of a culinary whiz. 

Theon glanced over at Nyx with a playful smile tugging at his lips. “If you’re not into nutrient packs, what do you like to eat? I can whip something up for you.” 

Zayne felt a sense of crisis upon hearing that. He had been so focused on the nutritional balance of her meals that he completely forgot about what females actually wanted to eat. 

On top of that, his whole celibacy theory meant he’d barely scraped through cooking classes back in the day, so his cooling skills weren’t anywhere near Theon’s level. 

Zayne had never thought of this day to come. He swore to himself that he needed to get some serious practice in cooking. 

Nyx chimed in, “Ah, well, actually, those nutrient drinks aren’t that bad…” She was already disappointed in the food on this planet, and she thought she could just live on nutrient drinks. 

But then a thought popped into her head, and she brightened up. “Wait, how about I make dinner instead? As a thank–you for taking care of me these past couple of days.” 

Theon and Zayne froze, exchanging a confused look and thinking, ‘Is she serious? A female doing the cooking for males? If the Female Protection Association gets wind of this, we’ll probably get dragged to court.” 

But Nyx was already ahead of them, rummaging through the kitchen. She found potatoes, asparagus, tomatoes, and a bunch of other things she didn’t recognize at all–definitely not stuff she could find on Earth. 

The meat was about the same as what she saw back home, though she couldn’t tell what kind of animal it came from. It was already cut into neat pieces, though, so she picked out some ribs and a chunk of what looked like beef brisket. 

To her surprise, the spices and condiments were decently stocked. 

But then, the real issue hit. She had no clue how to use the kitchen gadgets. 

Theon saw an opening and suggested, “How about I handle the cooking, and you just tell me what to do?” 

He thought this whole thing was a joke. He didn’t believe a female could cook, especially one who couldn’t even remember her past.

Still, he went along with it. If it made her happy, he was down for whatever nonsense she wanted to pull. And even if they ended up with a disaster, he’d probably just smile and eat whatever she served. After all, he was tough enough to survive anything.
