Commander, stop staring at me!

Chapter 18: Meet you again

Tiara trained for several days and found a lot of ingredients along the way. She fought with low level starry beasts and animals around here, she even met and defeated three B level zergs. When she's tired, she will go inside her space to check the ball, cultivate or arrange her space.

She's been wandering on this place for how many days without any exact direction. She was actually enjoying this trip as she saw a lot of sceneries as she walks. Right now, she is soaking her feet in the ice cold stream while silently marveling this planet's nature.

When she was done soaking, she went inside her space to take a quick bath. Then, like a ritual, she went to check the fluff ball, and to her surprise, there are additional two round black beads on the surface of the fluff ball!

She carefully moved towards it, then the the round black beads blinked, seemingly innocent. When she was a few centimeters away from it, it suddenly jumped towards her "Maa Maa" these soft words caught her unprepared, what the heck? She's been an old lady inside the room on both her lives, now she suddenly gained an extra child! Will her parents mind an extra grand child when she comes back?

Tiara still tried to think rationally, so she carried the fluff ball away from her body. She now saw the added features on this fluff ball. There are now feet that looks like that of a cat, arms and hands that is about two inches long, pink nose and whiskers. All in all... It looks so cute! Nima, what can she do?

"mama?" the little thing looked at her cutely, oh my, no need to think, she accepts this extra child!

Next, what to call it? Hmm, wait, is it a daughter or a son? She looked carefully around the place where that thing should appear, and without any surprise, it's a boy. She already had a hunch about it's gender, knowing that this little is the one responsible to where she is now. Most of the powerful beings in interstellar are men.

Going back to the point, since it's a very cute son, she should give it a very cute name. Hmm, ball? That's too ugly, how about round? Nah, terrible, wait, this round thing reminds her of the sky outside!

"Cloud," she called.

"Mama!" the little thing looked at happily after finally hearing its mother's voice, Tiara took its happy countenance as admitting its name.

"Ok, from now on, you will be called Cloud!" Tiara happily hugged Cloud's soft body.

She tried feeding Cloud with her produce but he didn't eat until Tiara cooked the food. When Cloud saw the food that Tiara cooked, he finished it in one gulp, this stunned Tiara. She knew that starry beasts can eat a lot, or else, how can they become public enemy number two by the interstellar people? She was just wondering where did all this food went.

After solving their food, Tiara decided to bring Cloud together with her in wandering on this planet.

During their travel, Tiara began to doubt whether Cloud was really the S class starry beast that scared the planet base before, as this coward son of hers just shakes whenever there are other beast around.

They walked aimlessly until one day, she saw something, or much better to say someone, that made her doubt life even more.

In her cognition, this person would be the last person that she would encounter in this kind of situation.

She approached the person slowly. She had read a lot of books regarding a genetic orc warrior getting berserk after getting heavy injuries, so she needs to be safe.

Tiara felt a very heavy aura as she move forward, when she almost can't endure the aura, she had no choice but to call the person

"Commander Paxley, can you still remember me? I am Tiara" Tiara gritted as she felt suffocated

Tiara was surprised when the suffocating aura suddenly disappeared without a trace but before she can celebrate the person that was leaning on the tree just now suddenly pounced her, making Cloud run away in panic.

"Don't move" he said like every sound he utter is laborious

Tiara was a little uncomfortable after being hugged by someone she's really not that familiar with, but this person is her benefactor, just endure. Theodore doesn't seem to be satisfied with hugging while standing so he carried Tiara like a doll and went back to lean on the tree roots.

Tiara just obediently stayed in his arms without complaints. Her back is facing him, while he is leaning on her left shoulder. Sigh, she didn't know how she ended up as a stuff toy for the empire's youngest and strongest commander.

She heard a rustling sound nearby then she felt the person behind her emitted a very strong aura that seems to warn the surrounding to stay where they are, although she's not affected by this aura, her coward son would be!

"Commander, don't release energy too much, my son is not yet back"

She heard the man grunt but still she felt that the aura emitted by the guy decreased then, probably feeling a little safe, she saw her coward son blinking in front of her.

"Cloud, come here now," she tried to open her arms to hug her son, but the arms around her waist tightened and another round of heavy aura was released.

"Commander, that's my pet," but Theodore didn't listen this time, instead he pulled her nearer to him, leaving almost no gap between them.

Tiara was speechless this time. She had no other choice but to look at her silly son who was three meters away from her. Cloud seemed to notice her helplessness, so instead of making a fuss, he just sat down and closed his eyes to sleep.

Tiara breathed a sigh of relief like a mother who saw her son being sensible. Due to exhaustion from today's battles, Tiara fell asleep as soon as she closed her eyes. The moment she went asleep, a pair of red eyes slowly opened.

Theodore was already awake when the small starry beast appeared, but the thought of that small thing being cuddled by the girl in his arms right now leaves a sour taste on his tongue, so he used his psychic energy to make it sleep to where it is.

He hugged the girl tighter while remembering what he just did. During the berserk stage of a genetic orc warrior, their beast side will completely take over, so it's much better for them to be isolated to not hurt anybody. But he didn't know how Tiara fell in his arms unscathed after he snapped out of his berserk stage.

Theodore made a rough scan on his body and found out that most of the brute energy in his body was now almost eliminated. He looked at the person in his arms.

He was sure that it would take at least three days for him to snap, but it was only a day after he accidentally entered a berserk stage, and now he is almost completely fine.

The last time he met this girl, she gently took away some of his brute energy, now she almost completely removed it. If he hadn't seen the Fleckers who almost wanted to rebel just because he saved this girl, he might have thought that this girl was someone with a mysterious origin.

She can eliminate his undesired energy and, on top of that, even in his berserk stage, his first impulse was to take her and keep her safe. He is also curious about how the little princess of the Fleckers is walking alone in this forest with a starry beast. Did they lose her again? He didn't know that, as a millennium-old family, the Fleckers were still unreliable.

He leaned back on the tree, so Tiara could sleep properly. He thinks that he can give a good point for the Fleckers for being unreliable. He was able to see this kitten again. He comfortably hugged her and fell asleep.
