Mephisto and the others looked at the cub in shock, but before they could react and reveal the aftereffects of comforting the cub, Mephisto immediately took the cub into his arms and carried it away.
"Hey, wait! General, wait!"
Someone couldn't help but shout it out:
"That's... the baby!"
Not many people in the military play games. The subordinates weren't referring to the little guy in the game, but rather they were surprised that the general had an omega baby.
But he felt that no matter what he said, he would offend this precious little omega, so he could only mumble something incoherently and then shut up.
The others also showed expressions of dissatisfaction, as if Mephisto had snatched something important from them.
This is the aftereffect, also known as withdrawal symptoms.
This scene only occurs after a high-ranking omega has appeased the omega.
Many more people reached out blankly, trying to find the scent of their offspring again in the air where the pheromones had faded.
They pleaded, yearned, and even wanted to kneel down and rub against the floor where the cubs had stepped.
It's like an animal desperately trying to rub against a human it likes, just to feel their presence.
Looking at his men's disgraceful state, the adjutant was secretly relieved that the general had taken the cub away first.
Otherwise, these guys would be a disgrace to the military!
See? He said betas have their advantages too—at least they won't lose control like this in front of the cubs' pheromones!
The adjutant kicked each of the men away before going over to open the door to the colonel's small dark room. Surprisingly, the man had calmed down and had a cold expression, but his face was unusually flushed.
The adjutant approached him suspiciously, and the colonel immediately turned to look at the adjutant, saying clearly, word by word:
"I want to leave the group."
"Where is the general? I want to leave the military and transfer to the service of the prince who just comforted me. I want to become his protector. I want nothing but to stand by his side and serve him with my life! That would be my greatest honor!"
The adjutant looked at the alpha, whose restraints were snapping loudly, and considered whether to keep the guy locked up for a while longer.
So that he wouldn't actually run up to Mephisto and shout that he would pledge allegiance to the cub.
The cubs would certainly not refuse him, but the current general is practically a 2.0 version of the general (a jealous version).
The general will definitely be extremely jealous of this guy's fanatical following and dependence on the cub, and will want to transfer him to another place.
Then you won't even see a single hair on the cubs!
The adjutant coughed, looking at the poor, unfortunate fellow with a hint of pity:
"I advise you not to leave. That prince belongs to the rank of general."
The colonel was taken aback, then suddenly understood:
"Is he the general's omega?"
adjutant:.
Adjutant: "That's not what I meant..."
The cub had just been standing at the doorway and used its pheromones to sneak inside, so the colonel hadn't seen what the cub looked like. However, he believed that such powerful pheromones must have come from a high-ranking adult omega.
The little guy's technique for comforting him wasn't very skillful. Perhaps it was because he was a young prince who had just come of age that he was so quiet and well-behaved, not making a sound the whole time, and not asking him for any reward.
Seeing the alpha's disastrous financial losses, the adjutant could only sigh and whisper:
"Go out and ask those guys at the door in private later, and you'll understand."
The admiral wouldn't care so much about a normal omega. This is due to the admiral's personality; he has always focused more on warfare than on omegas.
But this is our little one. He's the General's only child, the only omega in the family, someone the General cherishes like the apple of his eye!
Even as guardians, the general will always choose the best for the cubs, so the pressure of competing for the position will be immense, and they will also be subject to the general's jealousy from time to time.
The adjutant sighed, shook his head, and turned to chase after Mephisto and the baby.
Only a bunch of big cats, as if their muscles had been squeezed, were left sitting slumped on the ground, as if they were still savoring something.
As for the cub, it started to get sleepy as soon as it returned to Mephisto's arms.
Obviously, even if the cub is highly talented, he is still a child who doesn't even know how to control his pheromones, so he will naturally feel tired and sleepy.
Moreover, he just so easily pulled an alpha whose mental strength was on the verge of collapse back from the brink.
This is already a miracle.
It's impossible for an ordinary omega to do that; even a high-level omega has to exhaust all their strength to barely stabilize the riotous situation.
But the cub actually calmed him down and brought him back to a stable state.
It's definitely not a misunderstanding that the child is being mistaken for a high-level omega.
However, Mephius did not intend to expose the cubs to the public so early.
Although the cub deviated from the plan, it did so to help him, to calm everyone down, and to rescue his subordinates who had given their lives for the military.
Mephius could only thank him and feel sorry for him.
Looking at his son's tired face, he thought he should just quit the military. That way, his mental strength could be extended for a while longer, and his son wouldn't have to go through so much trouble to comfort anyone. The two of them could live a good life at home.
Mephisto now understands why those legion alphas who get married and have good relationships are basically thinking, "I'll retire after this job."
This is not because they have become cowardly, nor because they are so immersed in the pleasures of love that they refuse to wake up. Rather, it is because they have fallen deeply in love with an omega, wanting to be with him every day, to be intimate with him, and to lighten the burden on the omega, so that they can live happily ever after until the end of their lives.
This kind of happiness, which Mephius did not understand, has finally been grasped by Mephius today.
He reached out and patted the cub in his arms, slowly pacing around the command room to lull it to sleep. The cub was very sleepy but also hungry. It seemed determined that it would not close its eyes until its adjutant brought it food.
Even in his father's arms, the cub persisted, closing his eyes and nodding a few times when he was extremely sleepy, then waking up with a start, staring blankly at the adjutant as if nothing had happened.
In the end, the cub never got to eat the vegetable and fruit pancakes it had been longing for.
The cub took a few bites of the biscuit, but before it could chew properly, it started to doze off again, swaying from side to side. It struggled with its appetite and drowsiness countless times, until finally its head sank and it buried itself in the food bowl.
Mephius immediately scooped the child up and, with a mix of amusement and exasperation, wiped the cub's face.
