Volume One, Chapter Two: The True Identity of the Pure Human Girl Revealed
Page 1/3
That remark was actually somewhat softened by Lesder; in the underground fighting arena, there were no good people. If one wanted to dissolve a partnership, both parties had to go to the marriage bureau. Considering Hekun’s status… forget it, better not make her sad.
“Could you please tell me everything that happened inside? Perhaps we can help you find your family.”
Family! She had none on this planet. “I’m sorry, I don’t know why I appeared there. My earliest memory is meeting you here.”
Lesder felt a pang of pity for her. Probably a respectable woman forced into prostitution, suffering temporary amnesia from trauma.
He immediately ordered his adjutant to schedule a medical examination.
[Warning alert!!! Host, please refuse this physical exam, or your pure human identity will be revealed.]
The system’s sudden alarm caught Meng Yuan off guard. “Th-then... can I skip the exam?”
“Miss, the underground fighting arena has long been frequented by ruthless criminals, some carrying viruses. This is for your health.”
Lesder’s tone brooked no refusal. After telling her to rest, he left.
Alone in the room, Meng Yuan fretted. What excuse could she use to get through this exam?
After a restless night, she woke the next day feeling unwell. Lesder arrived as promised, accompanied by a small robot.
The robot offered a nutrient solution. “Mistress, please enjoy.”
Seeing her unfamiliar with it, Lesder’s face remained expressionless, but he patiently explained.
“This is a nutrient solution to replenish your body’s energy and nutrition. I only have military-grade supplies here, so the taste isn’t great. Bear with it; at the hospital, I’ll have someone prepare a flavor you prefer.”
Meng Yuan noticed his wording: “Your place?”
“My home.”
She had guessed correctly.
“We catch too many people from the underground arena—the prison can’t hold them all—so I brought you home for questioning. After your exam results come in, you’ll be sent to prison.”
Damn, just arriving and being sent to a den of vice wasn’t enough—now prison too? The system hadn’t warned her. Unreliable.
As Lesder said, the nutrient solution tasted awful, but to stave off hunger, Meng Yuan forced herself to drink more, though she soon vomited it up.

The manor was staffed largely by robots, and even the vehicle Meng Yuan rode in was high-tech—it looked like a car but actually flew through the air.
The premier Beastman Hospital of the Silna Empire.
The director personally greeted them, exchanging a few pleasantries with Lesder before ordering his assistant to examine Meng Yuan.
“Miss, please follow me.” The assistant was a woman with a gentle voice, easing Meng Yuan’s anxious heart somewhat.
“Do I really have to be examined?” she asked nervously.
Lesder thought she’d never had a medical checkup before and was afraid of the instruments, compounded by the unfamiliar environment and operators. He softened his demeanor, withdrawing his imposing aura. “Yes, cooperate with the assistant. I’ll wait outside. Call me if you need anything.”
It seemed the exam was unavoidable. Meng Yuan steeled herself, pondering how to explain the results when they came.
All the doctors attending her were women, speaking kindly. After a long wait, the director approached with the test report, his expression grave.
He greeted the colonel, then looked at her.
“You are not from our planet?”
Meng Yuan’s face changed instantly. She had been found out. Of course—with such advanced technology, how could they not distinguish between human and Beastman?
Noticing her fright, and with the colonel present, the director’s tone softened. “Miss, don’t be nervous. This is my office; only the three of us know. Just answer my questions.”
Meng Yuan nodded.
“Are you a pure human from ancient times?”
Even Lesder, usually unreadable, was shocked by this. When the girl nodded, his beast-like pupils constricted sharply. He snatched the report from the director and was even more stunned.
Pure human—more astonishing still.
Gender: Female (human term: woman)
Age: 22
Fertility: SSS+ (highest level)
Mental power: Unknown (potential SSS+)
Lesder stopped reading—just the fertility rating was explosive enough. If this information leaked, it could destabilize several major star systems.

The director explained, “The instruments detect that this young lady is an adult among ancient humans, but only an infant among Beastmen. She is also pregnant. Colonel, what do you think we should do?”
Lesder’s face darkened. His hands trembled slightly as he stared at the data, silent.
The director continued, “Her mental power is a mystery—highly unstable. The readings fluctuate between SSS+ and zero. I suspect the magnetic fields of our star system affect her. She has mental power, but Beastmen are born with it and learn to control it from infancy. She cannot control hers yet.”
“But with training, she should be able to master it.”
“Leave.”
“Ah?” The director was caught off guard, thinking he misheard.
“You first.”
“Yes, Colonel.”
Only two remained in the office. Seeing the system’s panel indicating she possessed the highest fertility and mental power among females—even surpassing males—Meng Yuan realized she was a rare talent coveted by star systems. After weighing the risks, she knew she was not in mortal danger.
After the analysis, Meng Yuan relaxed. Watching Lesder stand by the window smoking, she idly looked around.
Her interest was piqued by the many certificates on the wall behind the director’s desk—one in particular stood out.
This hospital was donated by the Walzan family. Wait—the Walzan family? That name sounded familiar.
Lesder Walzan, the colonel, had introduced himself fully.
This meant his family was wealthy and influential; otherwise, they wouldn’t have donated such a large hospital in such a prime location. From the flying car, Meng Yuan couldn’t see the hospital’s end.
“Abort the child.”
“Ah?”
Lesder stubbed out his cigarette. “I said the child must be aborted—especially since it carries the blood of the Rebel Alliance.”
