Chapter 21 Not Death, Better Than Death

"You don't have to get up so early." Xia Tang advised: "You stayed in the hospital all day yesterday, so you should rest a little more."

Mistu didn't want to agree, but he felt guilty being stared at by Kyle's wolf eyes, so he just lingered with Xia Tang for a while and then went back upstairs.

Xia Tang and Kyle had just finished their meal when the doorbell rang.

She ran to open the door, and sure enough, it was Barn who came in, holding a bunch of daisies in his hand.

"Good morning, Mr. Baines." Xia Tang bowed slightly.

Baan handed the flowers to Xia Tang with an uncomfortable expression.

"Thank you!" Xia Tang put the daisies in the vase. The freshness of the flowers reminded her of the cheerful and lively Lambert yesterday, so she asked casually, "Teacher Barn, why didn't your friend come today?"

"He has something to do."

Barn touched his nose. He certainly would not admit that he had deliberately set Lambert's alarm clock to the afternoon this morning. Lambert's sleep quality was very good and he would never wake up without an alarm clock.

Xia Tang didn't ask much. Here, all the orcs had their own lives, except her.

This was a completely unfamiliar world to her. She could even foresee that she would not know how to feed herself if she lost Mistu and Kyle.

Although he is about to become an adult, he is not only completely unable to be independent, but he even has to be taught the most basic common sense of life by Barn like a three-year-old child.

Baan's lesson today is age.

Xia Tang didn't understand what was so good about learning this until Barn wrote down the average age of 300 on the small blackboard.

"You mean the people here will live to 300 years old? Then when will they get old?" Xia Tang was a little surprised and touched his face.

Barn nodded. "Don't worry about that. The physical state of an orc will only change before the age of 20. A male will change from a small beast to a human form until the age of 20, when it will slowly freeze. After that, it will remain frozen between 20 and 30 years old, and its face will not age. For example, you must know President Fina of the Female Protection Association. She is 65 years old this year."

"What?!" In Xia Tang's eyes, Fina looked only a few years older than her. How could she be 65 years old?

She actually kept calling Fina sister!

In fact, the lifespan of orcs is much longer than 300 years, but later on the problem of genetic degeneration of bestiality emerged, so that now there are fewer and fewer orcs who can live safely to 300 years old or above.

Those long-lived orcs are either those who have received long-term spiritual comfort from their wives or they are small vegetarian orcs with relatively stable emotions.

"So Kyle and Mistu will die if they don't get my spiritual comfort?"

"Beast transformation does not mean death," Barn shook his head. "It can only be said that there is a risk of beast transformation."

Xia Tang was very worried: "What if I don't awaken my spiritual power?"

Barn patiently explained, "Spiritual power is innate in our genes. Only some of the females in the empire can awaken their spiritual power. If you haven't awakened it, it's not your fault. You don't have to feel any psychological burden about it."

Genes?

Xia Tang felt a little uneasy.

She is just an ordinary human being!

There should be obvious differences between her genes and those of the female beastmen here, right? How can they awaken if they are different species? Just like monkeys and humans, they may both be primates, but monkeys can never speak like humans, nor can they live as long as humans.

Xia Tang was not very good at hiding her emotions, and as an artist, some expressions were easily written on her face. Moreover, Xia Tang was born cute, and even though Barn had tried his best to restrain his gaze from staying on her face, it was still difficult not to notice her slightly furrowed brows and the pair of eyes filled with worry.

Baan didn't expect Xia Tang's acceptance rate to be so low.

The issues of lifespan and genetic animalization are very basic courses. In addition, the animalization of males is currently very serious. Not to mention females, even males themselves have already accepted it.

If he had known earlier, he should have postponed the course.

Barn thought for a moment and said, "Don't worry. The possibility of your two guardians temporarily transforming into beasts is relatively small. Major Kyle is only 27 years old this year, a very young male. Doctor Mistu is not only young, but also a small herbivorous male. The probability of his transformation into beasts is much smaller."

"Even if they turn into wild beasts, can I still keep them at home?" Xia Tang asked.

Barn shook his head. "The beastly males are no different from wild beasts. They have no human nature, do not understand human language, and have completely forgotten the experience of living together before. The Empire has a place specifically for raising them, called the Star Beast Garden. If you wish, you can go and see them regularly."

In fact, even if there are more loyal females, they will no longer go there after checking in regularly a few times. It is more important to cherish the males who are still around you.

Xia Tang's next question surprised Baan.

Xia Tang asked: "What will happen to them if I die?"

The females of the empire never make such horrible assumptions. They are precious, proud, and noble, and will never fall into danger. The countless males of the empire will be their shields and support. And because females have no risk of animalization, they will live longer than males.

Baan concluded based on his own life experience: "That won't happen."

"Teacher," Xia Tang became serious, "There is life and there is death, this is the law of nature. I will die one day, right? What will happen to them if I die before them?"

What will happen?

Barn thought of his father. He and his mother had always had a good relationship, so after his mother passed away, his father became too sad and his out-of-control value continued to rise. Not long after, he turned into a beast. After Barn sent his father to the Star Beast Garden, his father passed away a few years later.

He still remembers the sorrow his father experienced day and night before he transformed into a beast, and how carefree he was in the Star Beast Garden after he transformed.

This made it impossible for him to jump to conclusions as to whether bestiality was a genetic degeneration disease or a gift from fate.

"This is not something you should consider." Baines erased the blackboard.

"You don't have to keep silent. They will transform into beasts, right?" Xia Tang had already guessed it.

Baines sighed. "This is a good thing for them. After transforming into a beast, the male will forget all his previous memories, including the painful and sad ones."

Xia Tang closed the notes.

is it?

She felt that saying goodbye to a living person was more cruel than saying goodbye to a dead person.

You can see it, you can touch it, but it is no longer it.

That is a death deeper than death. It is not death that separates you, but fate that mocks you.
