Chapter 72 part1 (1/2)

Very important cub

War.

Even the word itself was cruel.

In Zarad's eyes, war could only pointlessly snatch away things others held dear. The currently relatively peaceful state of the interstellar was a matter worth celebrating to all races.

Regarding the war that took place more than a year ago on Kesou, Zarad wasn't very clear about the actual situation. At that time, he had already retired from the military and was still depressed.

However, Zarad remembered that the military campaign had been very short, it had been a blitzkrieg.

After the Star Alliance sent troops to protect the peace, the war had ended in merely three days.

According to the way Morrison was, Zarad felt that even if the military department had not sent the special forces to take part in this military campaign, the other would still surely have requested to be sent to the battlefield on his own accord.

Taking the other's participation in the war as a fact, Zarad could conclude that the laili cub had most likely been picked up by Morrison at the battlefield on Kesou.

Zarad spoke out about all his speculations and Xie Luan's eyebrows gradually creased as well as he listened.

The cub in his arms still had his head buried in his chest. Xie Luan softly hummed a lullaby and continued to consciously channel his spiritual power to soothe the cub.

If things really were as Zarad said, this cub was probably not afraid of thunder… but of a sound similar to thunder.

Perhaps explosions.

There were many thunderstorms during this season. Xie Luan lowered his head and looked towards the eyes of the cub in his arms, his heart full of worry.

Stress reaction, he should have realized it sooner… Xie Luan thought back to the time he first met the mermaid cub. At that time, when the little mermaid had left the water, he had shown the same kind of frightened appearance.

The panic in the two cubs' eyes was similar. Gale had managed to overcome this mental obstacle with great difficulty. Xie Luan did not know whether the laili cub had it in him to do the same.
