All along, the information I obtained from the system emphasized.
In this world, the status of females is extremely high, almost at the top of the societal hierarchy.
But the reality appears to be much more complex than imagined.
"System, come out for a moment."
An interference sound of electric current echoed in her mind.
Selene Kane felt extremely irritated as she furrowed her brows tightly, supporting her slightly aching head with one hand.
At this moment, the male driving in front seemed to misunderstand her actions, hurriedly speaking nervously, "My Lady, there seems to be some situation ahead, the road is blocked. I will go ahead to see if we can take a detour."
With that said, he didn't bother waiting for the car to fully stop and quickly opened the car door to get out.
A few seconds later, the system spoke leisurely.
"Host, hello. Just now, I conducted a comprehensive review of the relevant data. Rest assured, your spiritual power level indeed has a world of difference with the original owner. From now on, you can act entirely your own way."
When Selene heard this, her slender fingers unconsciously clutched the hem of her skirt.
It's over.
Her mind was almost only filled with this thought.
The reason females can enjoy supreme societal status in this world isn't due to their scarcity.
But because they naturally possess a special talent.
To calm emotionally unstable males with spiritual power.
Even in an era of advanced technology and achieved interstellar colonization.
The Beastmen community still finds it difficult to completely control their own emotions.
In the absence of stable spiritual calming, their rationality is very likely to collapse completely, even directly fall into a state of berserk frenzy, eventually turning into humanoid beasts, utterly losing thinking ability.
And at this moment, the reason Selene Kane was so desperately searching for Hayden Langdon, was because he was already on the verge of explosion!
Yesterday, that once infinitely glorious man was kneeling at her feet.
But at that time, the original owner was already swallowed by the anger suppressed for years, out of control, forcing him to bow down to kiss her.
A man who was once proud, disdainful of any violations, could now only clenched his lips, silently accepting all this inhuman torment.
At that time, the original owner intended to make things difficult for him.
Not only continuously exerting high-pressure to oppress his dignity but simultaneously providing him with almost perfunctory spiritual consolation.
Trapping Hayden Langdon in this emotional cage from which escape is impossible.
Thinking of this scene, Selene Kane felt a strong headache.
She vaguely remembered when she left home in the morning, Hayden Langdon disappeared in a "flying" posture.
Yes, he flew away.
Transformed into Adonis Morpho form, he flapped his wings lightly in the air, crookedly flying outside through the window.
If he doesn't receive effective spiritual calming in the next twelve hours, the consequences will be unimaginable.
Perhaps after a few more hours, he would never be able to return to human form.
"So what am I supposed to do now? I am a female without any spiritual power, my situation in this world is worse than that of the undeveloped Insectoids."
In this strictly hierarchical society.
Every human is assigned a corresponding spiritual power rating from birth.
Ranging from E, the lowest, to SSS, the highest, seven levels.
The original owner could easily attract many quality males to pursue her.
Besides the exceptionally favorable match degree, more importantly, she possessed exceedingly rare and powerful S-level spiritual power!
But right now, all of this has turned into bubbles.
"Host, don't panic."
The system's voice resounded again, carrying a slight urgency.
"Although the original owner's body is dead, the leftover spiritual power won't immediately dissipate. I just quickly scanned your data panel, your original spiritual core is actually very stable, its strength is much higher than the average person."
Hearing this, a smile appeared on the corner of Selene Kane's lips.
"Thank you for kindly comforting me, it's truly touching."
The system's fluctuations increased slightly.
"Additionally, I detected an abnormal data change. You are now pregnant. Because the unborn child is a native life form of this world, there's a natural link between your spirit and his. As long as you focus, you can leverage his power to assist yourself."
Just as it reached this point, a subtle feeling instantly surged into Selene Kane's mind.
Following it, in the next second, her mind suddenly felt light and transparent.
The system continued, "During pregnancy, you can borrow the child's spiritual power to perform the 'Calm' skill."
Subsequently, its tone paused slightly.
"Advice, if the emotional value between you and Beast Husband is higher, your spiritual link will be tighter and the power feedback will also become more distinct."
Upon hearing these words, Selene Kane slowly reached out her hand to stroke her flat belly.
She whispered softly, "Are you saying... after the child is born, I will no longer be able to exercise that calming ability on males? Also... who exactly is the child's father? Only by reaching the pinnacle in the relationship with that person can my power be fully effective before him?"
"Correct."
For a moment, her throat slightly choked.
Her eyes lowered, yet her expression grew deeper.
That means, for a long period ahead, she must rely on the child's father to survive...
Damn it!
"Ding! Partner currently facing external attack detected, please act quickly, suggest immediate departure to the scene to handle the related situation."
——
"Enough! I hereby formally command as a female, everyone stop immediately! Stop fighting!"
An angry shout came from afar.
A tall, fire-red-haired female stepped out.
And resting quietly on the lapel of her chest, a violet-colored butterfly lay, its wings weakly folded together.
"This is my boyfriend's art studio, no one is allowed to intrude without permission, nor interfere or destroy the affairs here. None of you are qualified to meddle!"
Unfortunately, the surrounding situation was already beyond salvage.
The studio was almost in utter chaos.
The once invaluable artworks had already been shattered into pieces.
Ragged canvases, models, and paint fragments scattered everywhere.
And at the forefront of the entire scene stood the Beastman with a cold face.
He had gray-blue fur, and a pair of gray-purple ears constantly twitching lightly.
"Please don't obstruct our official duty, Miss."
Nico initially wanted to continue arguing.
However, the little butterfly in her arms seemed to sense something ominous, uneasily fluttering its wings, its delicate antennae continually rubbing her chest.
Her initial intention to argue thoroughly with these people had to be postponed for now.
She carefully cuddled the little butterfly close to her chest, protecting it.
Even though her anger remained unquenched.
But for the sake of this poor little creature, she could only suppress the fire in her heart.
