After Rebirth, The Strongest Beasts Are Obsessed With Me

[Main mission issued: Bond with the Silver Fox Prince-successfully mark Prince Caelir Moore and win his true heart. Mission completion will unlock 20% system progress.]

Elena froze. Marking she could understand, but winning his true heart? What did that mean?

"What do you mean by 'winning his true heart'?" she asked mentally.

"Host must make the target truly fall in love with you, not just develop physiological dependence from marking."

Elena frowned. This was way harder than simple marking.

Ares bowed his head slightly. "Your Highness, I'm sorry to worry you."

Caelir helped Ares up, but his gaze fell on Elena. "She's the female who brought you back to your senses?"

Those red eyes held a playful glint, as if studying an interesting piece of art.

The moment their eyes met, Elena saw Caelir's face clearly. She was stunned.

Sharp, sculpted features. Straight nose. Thin lips with slightly upturned corners. Handsome, beautiful-he radiated an elegant yet seductive aura.

About six-foot-three, lean but solid. Broad shoulders, tight waist, defined muscles that weren't overdone. Clearly someone who trained regularly.

She could sense his natural charm and confidence in his gaze.

Unlike Ares's rugged, rough masculinity, Caelir was a man who knew exactly how attractive he was and how to use it.

System information unfolded in her mind:

[Crown Prince Caelir of the Noel Empire, beast form: silver fox. The Silver Fox Dynasty traditionally passes the throne to females. The current Empress lost fertility after bearing only two male heirs. With no female heir available, she designated Caelir as Crown Prince. Male rulers face major risks-if marked by scheming females, the empire could be indirectly controlled. Therefore, Prince Caelir remains unmated.]

"No wonder the system wants me to win his heart," Elena mused. "A prince afraid of female control wouldn't fall in love easily."

Elena had just processed the prince's information when she heard Ares answer somewhat awkwardly."Yes, Your Highness. I plan to take her to my estate."

Caelir chuckled softly. "Good, but you'll both come with me to the Royal Hospital first, then to the palace."

The prince's words were a notification, not a request.

After speaking, Caelir ignored Ares and Elena, turning to Vera nearby. His tone turned instantly cold. "Secretary, you eavesdropped on classified meeting content, violating Imperial Law Article 17. You're hereby dismissed for privacy invasion and detained for one month."

Hearing about detention, Vera's legs gave out. She collapsed.

She had indeed broken the law and couldn't argue back. She didn't dare argue with a prince who never gave females special treatment based on gender.

Vera's heart filled with hatred. A detention record meant her descendants could never work for the royal family again. And it was all Elena's fault!

Elena felt nothing hearing Vera's punishment. To her, Vera was a stranger. Besides, she had more important missions to complete.

Ares, however, deliberately observed Elena's reaction.

He was surprised she didn't gloat. Some females would smirk when other females suffered misfortune.

"Maybe she's different?" Kael suggested tentatively.

"Impossible. All females are the same-spoiled, selfish, love making males compete for them."

"But she..."

"She's just better at pretending," Ares cut Kael off.

Seeing Elena show no joy, Ares lowered his eyes to hide his confusion. This female was truly strange.

Soon, in the luxury hover vehicle heading to the capital, Ares discovered another odd thing about Elena.

The petite female could really eat. Gulp after gulp, she drank ten nutrition tubes in a row!

"My god, she's still drinking!" Kael said happily. "Is it because she's carrying our cub and needs nutrition?"

"Maybe she's just hungry!" Ares replied mentally. He didn't believe this F-class female could get pregnant by him so quickly.

"No female can eat this much," Kael's hope made Ares inexplicably irritated. He cut off communication with Kael, not letting its emotions affect him.

Ares's staring made Elena uncomfortable.

Nutrition fluid was the only food in this world, synthesized from various minerals. Regular females felt full after half a tube, splitting one tube between two meals.

She didn't know why she needed ten tubes, or why she vaguely felt she could handle another.

But Elena was too embarrassed to ask for more. Flavored nutrition fluid cost 1000 star coins per tube. Expensive.

Elena pretended to watch the scenery, avoiding the two males' gazes.

Seeing Elena turn to the window, Caelir couldn't help chuckling teasingly. "Looks like you'll need several more males to support your Matriarch, Ares. Ten thousand star coins per meal-your general's salary might not cover her appetite."

His tone was casual, but his eyes glinted mischievously. Obviously teasing Ares on purpose.

Ares fell silent. He wouldn't tell anyone he planned to sign a contract marriage with Elena. Since it was fake, he naturally didn't need to drain his savings supporting Elena.

As for Elena finding other male mates... whatever. As long as it didn't affect their planned agreement, Elena could find a hundred for all he cared.

Thinking this, Ares said flatly. "Taking mates is her freedom. I won't interfere."

Hearing this answer, obvious interest flashed in Caelir's red pupils.

He leaned forward slightly, voice curious.

"Really? Ares Hayes, the iron-hearted werewolf who believes in fated mate and hates multi-mate systems, now says he doesn't mind his Matriarch taking other males?"

As a close friend, Caelir knew Ares's personality too well. But now Ares had not only been marked by a female, he was saying he didn't care if his Matriarch took more mates.

Caelir turned his attention to Elena. She had a unique scent-sweet like peaches, making him want to get closer. The more he looked, the more charming every part of Elena seemed.

Remembering what his mother said in the online meeting, Caelir's eyes showed shrewd calculation.

Anyone who could restore a berserk 4S beastman to normal must have undergone rare secondary awakening, reaching 4S level mental power. No 4S-level female had ever appeared in the galaxy. If the Noel Empire possessed such a female, their galactic influence would definitely increase.

If Elena's supposed infertility was also a misdiagnosis, he might be ordered by his mother to share a Matriarch with Ares.

With him and Ares, his mother would probably restrict Elena from mating with other males, or the Silver Fox royal status could be threatened.

Soon, the hover vehicle stopped outside the Royal Hospital .

Having heard Caelir say they came for testing, Elena wasn't resistant at all.

At least I'll know my real strength. she thought.

Though females' mental power in this world couldn't attack, higher levels brought more life benefits.

"System, the test won't expose your existence, right?" Elena asked mentally.

"No. The system has disguised abilities as secondary awakening phenomena."

Elena relaxed, placing her hand on the testing stone. Information about the stone surfaced in her mind.

Legend said the testing stone was bestowed by the Beast God when beastmen were still in ancient times. Later, beastmen gradually evolved, entering the interstellar age after ten thousand years. The testing stone had been improved many times.

Now when females placed their hands on it, the stone emitted light while directly displaying S, A, B, C, D, E, F grades.

Additionally, after test results were confirmed, the female's data would be published on the Imperial Mating Bureau's Beast Mate System, allowing single males nationwide to submit mate applications.

Thinking about this, Elena felt nervous. Whatever the result, her life would change completely.

Suddenly she heard a male medical worker exclaim. "My god, white light, infinity symbol! Beast God, has the Beast God descended?"
