into the night.

It was pitch black outside the cave, filled with the chirping of insects and birds.

If you listen carefully, you can hear faint ambiguous sounds.

In the orc world, night is a good time to raise children.

Qianxia nestled in Xuan Qi's arms, gently stroking her belly.

"You said that after 60 days, you'll be able to sense whether the cub is male or female, right?"

Chinatsu asked.

"Yeah, but I guess they're all male cubs. In my tribe... I don't think I've ever heard of a female cub being born."

Xuan Qi spoke gently, placing his hand on her lower abdomen.

"What if it's a female cub?"

Chinatsu said unconvinced.

Just because you haven’t seen it doesn’t mean it doesn’t exist, right?

Xuan Qi thought for a moment and said, "If it's a female cub, then I will definitely protect her and not let her get hurt. My female cub, Xuan Qi, deserves the best in the world."

The corners of Chinatsu's mouth twitched.

It turns out he is a daughter slave.

Chinatsu suddenly wanted to tease him.

"What about male cubs? Are male cubs like this too?"

Chinatsu asked jokingly.

"Just throw the male cubs out and let them live on their own."

Xuan Qi said this without mercy.

These words frightened Chinatsu directly.

She sat up straight away and looked at him.

"Xuan Qi, if you dare to throw my son out to live outside, I won't want you, this beast!"

Chinatsu said a little angrily.

She worked so hard to get pregnant and give birth to the baby, and he actually said he wanted to just throw her away?

If he dared to throw the child out, she would throw him out first!

Xuan Qi couldn't quite understand her reaction.

In the animal world, males are supposed to be independent.

Many male cubs have to follow their fathers to hunt when they are young.

This is very dangerous, but also a test.

Weak males don't deserve to live.

This is the iron rule of the animal world.

Being weak means not being able to catch prey, and if you can't catch prey you'll be hungry, let alone finding a partner.

No female would be attracted to a weak male, let alone choose him as a partner.

If they don't have the ability to hunt, how can they support their partner and their offspring even if they form a pair?

So this is why it is said that weak males do not deserve to live. The fundamental reason is that they cannot survive at all.

Xuan Qi was silent for a moment, then he sat up and looked at her and said, "If you don't want a beast like me, then who will take care of you? Well... If you can't bear to leave your child, then you can keep him by your side for a while. I can afford it."

When Chinatsu heard this, she became even angrier.

"No, what do you mean? What do you mean by keeping it by your side for a while?"

Chinatsu asked.

She seems very angry...

Xuan Qi didn't understand why she was so angry.

He didn't dare to say much at this time.

"Speaking of which, what do you mean by keeping it by your side for a while?!"

Chinatsu's emotions were flaring up at this point, and she got angry when she heard him say he wanted to abandon the child to live alone.

"Xia Xia, why are you so angry? In my heritage, the Black King Snake clan is like this. My father threw me out to live independently since I was born. I have been fighting for survival since I was a child. My ninth-level strength is not something that can be obtained casually. Talent is important, but hard work is also important.

Male cubs of other species might not be thrown out to live independently like I was at birth, but they also have to follow their fathers to hunt and learn skills from a young age. Males must be strong, otherwise how can they support themselves and their partners?

Xuan Qi explained.

Xuan Qi's words made Qianxia suddenly calm down.

She forgot.

I am now living in a different world of beasts, not the modern 21st century.

She inexplicably brought the 21st century into this world.

"S-sorry, I was a little...overexcited."

Chinatsu said somewhat weakly.

This world is cruel. If you are not strong enough, you will become food for wild beasts. Only if you are strong can you survive and live a better life.

Just like when she first came here, at first she could only find some wild fruits to eat, those that she could recognize. No matter how hungry she was, she didn't dare touch the fruits she didn't recognize.

How dare I risk my life for an experiment?

Later she found some fish and was able to eat her fill.

In this beast world, fish is the lowest level of food for orcs and is also the food that requires the least effort to catch.

Even this so-called easiest food took her a lot of effort and patience to catch.

Xuan Qi looked at Qianxia in front of him with a dejected look on her face, and he felt a little distressed.

That’s all.

He is a ninth-level orc after all, and there are not many who can be his match. If his partner can't bear to part with the cub, just keep it by his side and find a way to teach it when the time comes.

"Xia Xia, if you can't bear to leave the cubs, just keep them by your side. I'm very strong and there's no problem taking care of you. As long as you're happy, that's all that matters."

Xuan Qi looked at her and said seriously.

Hearing his words, Chinatsu was stunned.

She looked up at him, just staring at him without saying a word.

Xuan Qi felt a little uncomfortable being looked at by her.

He asked, "What's wrong? Why are you looking at me like that?"

Chinatsu said nothing, just hugged him.

She knew it was rare for him to say this.

He thought she was very important, so important that he could abandon the rules and laws of the animal world for her, as long as she was happy.

Chinatsu just hugged him like this, and he silently embraced her body.

After a long time......

"Xuan Qi, will you be completely loyal and loving to me?"

Chinatsu asked softly, still holding him.

"Of course, Xia Xia, we are already partners. You are the love that I will protect with my life. You don't have to doubt it."

Xuan Qi spoke seriously and firmly.

He hugged the person in his arms a little tighter.

"But don't you think it's a bit hasty? We've never met before, and we don't have any emotional foundation. We just happened to be together that one time... and then you became my partner. This..."

Chinatsu said with some uneasiness.

She only felt uneasy now, and she herself found it very funny.

But I really hadn't thought about these issues before, and when I thought about it, I realized how careless I was.

Xuan Qi let her go, picked her up and put her on his lap, hugging her.

"Do you know that from the moment I picked you up in the wild, you have actually been considered my female."

Xuan Qi asked her very gently.

He understands now.

She is starting to feel uneasy and fearful because she is pregnant.

Although he had never come into contact with females, he had heard many males talk about these issues during his years of wandering.

His encounter with Chinatsu was indeed not that good.

When she left, he thought she might not like him.

Even though he and she had already mated, she still left without even waiting for him to come back and say no.
