Chosen Mate of the Beastmen Empire by Lewis Reed

Chapter 85

The inducer hadn’t been seen in the Empire for many years. Originally developed as a recreational drug to help females get into the right state and provide mental soothing for males, the drug was widely abused, and countless females came forward claiming they had been injected against their will.

The royal family issued a ban, and the drug was restricted. Laws were later amended to make it illegal. Now, the only place where one could acquire such a drug was the Underground Arena.

“Those people really came from the Underground Arena” Lia exhaled deeply, giving up her resistance and started to confess. She truthfully explained how she had connected with the Underground Arena’s forces, her motives, and the purpose behind her actions.

“But I had no idea about the inducer. You can investigate however you want.” Her words were sincere, and the experienced interrogators could tell.

Since that was the case, it was clear that there were other masterminds behind these attackers, likely males, with the intention of injecting the inducer into an SSS–level female.

This was a major matter, and the interrogators couldn’t afford to slack off. They took turns interrogating the attackers, but all they got was one response. “The boss wants to see Nyx. Otherwise, how could anyone have taken the job for the small reward from the Windsor family!”

As for who “the boss‘ was, they refused to say, no matter how much pressure they were under.

“Jaws? Adam? Griffin? Dark Fox?” The names of several major Space Pirates were thrown out in turn, with interrogators carefully watching the attackers, not letting go of any change in their expressions.

They didn’t even react slightly to these names. They’d already been arrested and detained by the Empire–no matter how long the Space Pirates hands were, they couldn’t stretch far enough to do anything to them.

“What are they afraid of? thought the interrogators, Could it be that the ones pulling the strings are high–ranking officials within the Empire? The Security Bureau personnel looked grim.

In the hospital, Zayne finished the surgery quickly and his usual calm returned to his expression. His eyes met Crown Prince for a moment, both of them coldly avoiding eye contact, and they both turned their gaze to Nyx at the same time.

Nyx was having an uneasy sleep, even trembling occasionally despite being in Aurelius‘ arms. “Zayne,” she murmured softly.

Zayne reached out and gently stroked her back a few times to calm her down. With such a big event happening, it wasn’t safe to stay in the hospital too long. Now that Zayne’s surgery was complete, they could take Nyx home.

“Your hand’s not in a good condition. I’ll take you both, Aurelius said, not letting go of Nyx as he stood up and walked ahead.

They attracted countless curious gazes along the way. The news of Nyx’s attack was contained within the hospital, and the people outside were unaware.
