This time, Ming Huan was not hospitalized, and he seemed to be fine after a checkup. However, he sat in the ward and waited for Yu Hanzhou for two whole hours.

When he saw him again, his face was unusually pale.

A little sweat permeated his forehead, and his thin lips seemed to have little blood. However, his posture was still standing straight, and he looked upright and distinguished from his back.

He pushed open the door, “Ming Huan, let’s go home.”

“What’s wrong?”

Yu Hanzhou said nothing, and only waved before he brought him into the closed craft.

Ming Huan was the young dragon whose health condition was unstable during the period of differentiation, but why did it seem as if he came to the hospital for Yu Hanzhou to see a doctor? He sat while constantly pressing the Yang point. The dragon was as cold as if a stranger was near and gave a feeling that he must not be approached.

Ming Huan still remembered that he had just been stabbed by a needle without any reason, and regardless of whether Yu Hanzhou would answer or not, he frowned, “What the hell did you just give me?!”

“…. An inhibitor.”

“I didn’t have a fever, why should I be given an inhibitor?” Ming Huan pursed his lips with a look of disbelief.

“My… susceptible period has arrived.” Yu Hanzhou explained in a deep voice, “so I will be affected by pheromones for a little, but I have just used an inhibitor, so it’s okay for now.”

‘Susceptible period.’

If Yu Hanzhou hadn’t said that, Ming Huan would have almost forgotten that he was an alpha and also had a susceptible period.

Although living here for three years, he had never seen Yu Hanzhou’s susceptible period.

He didn’t have an omega, and should have relied on the inhibitor to get through each time.

Ming Huan remembered that Yu Hanzhou had told him a few days ago that there was nothing in the science book – that alphas could extract higher matching omega pheromones to analyze the material and thus make the most suitable inhibitor.

For four hundred years, Yu Hanzhou’s highest omega matching rate was not more than 10% which meant that his inhibitor would not be a fit and must have huge side effects on his mental energy.

His pheromone was so strong, and the inhibitor could not achieve the desired inhibitory effect. ‘These side effects should also be very strong, right?’

“Staring at me, what are you doing?”

Ming Huan was still contemplating it, and the empty line of sight suddenly met Yu Hanzhou’s eyes so he unnaturally turned his face, “You’re in your susceptible  period, and I am in my differentiation period. Shouldn’t we keep a little distance? I’m not sure if I should keep going to the hospital to get more inhibitors.”

Ming Huan saw Yu Hanzhou’s pale face. His tone was still fierce, but he didn’t seem to blame him for holding him down to give the inhibitor.

However, the side of his waist that was scraped by his tail still hurt a little.

Ming Huan lifted up a bit of clothing and slightly rubbed more and more until it turned red.

“Don’t rub it.” Yu Hanzhou looked out the window, “Go rub on the medicine.”

Ming Huan’s brain turned around a few more times.

He thought of the special effects inhibitor thing – ‘if I really go to the agricultural planet in the future, there must be a better special effects inhibitor of my own, right?’ His mental energy and Yu Hanzhou’s were at SSS-Level. This generic inhibitor would minimize the damage to his mental energy, but the inhibiting effect would also be very weak.

There was definitely no way to get through the estrus.

“So sad, simply having to go to hospital also gives me a special effect inhibitor,” Ming Huan darkly, “and the inhibitor, can really inhibit my estrus, right?”

Yu Hanzhou glanced at him.

After a moment, he said, “You have not yet finished differentiating and you have no match. Do not worry about your estrus. As long as the matching degree is with a good alpha, you can collect his pheromone, and it can be made into a simple soothing agent.”

“What if I don’t have an alpha with a good match?”

When Ming Huan asked this, Yu Hanzhou gave him another glance, which seemed to have a deeper meaning. For a moment, Ming Huan suddenly became a little nervous. He suddenly worried that if he did not have a high alpha match, his estrus would be very difficult to pass.

Noticing that the young omega seemed to be a little uneasy, Yu Hanzhou felt the flying machine he was sitting on shake slightly.

The omega’s mood really fluctuated easily.

The admiral fixed his mind and soothed the young dragon, “Don’t worry. This method is always settled.”

‘Oh.’

Ming Huan didn’t get along with Yu Hanzhou. Every time Yu Hanzhou treated him like this, he thought it was weird. 

Yu Hanzhou only did not know that he was waiting to finish his differentiation and then was going to leave.

For him to get an inhibitor or soothing agent, it was best to be able to get the relevant data before he left. When he went alone to the agricultural planet, in order to find a deserted hospital for mass production, he must find his own way to figure out his estrus every three months.

“Ming Huan.” Yu Hanzhou pressed his brow, and felt a headache, “What else? Is there something special?”

“Something else?” Ming Huan’s first reaction was to ask for an agricultural planet, but he  then tightened his mouth and licked his lips, “No, nothing else….”

“You do not want to be a commander, and want to do what you like.” Yu Hanzhou’s words paused, and his voice sounded fatigued, “Do you need me to handle the school transfer?”

“No, I’m actually quite happy in school….” Ming Huan lowered his head as facing this Yu Hanzhou was kinda uncomfortable, “Actually I don’t hate being a commander, but, I don’t like to be forced to….”

“Some of the courses you have can be canceled.” Yu Hanzhou’s voice was very light, “As for the school’s curriculum, before the completion of your differentiation period, you temporarily do not need to go again. Just stay home and rest.”

“…?”

‘Here we go again.’

Yu Hanzhou was very fond of using this kind of “non-command sentence” to talk to Ming Huan.

The wording was just not intense.

However, the tone of the voice, the look, and the attitude all gave Ming Huan a strong sense of oppression.

Ming Huan did not like this feeling.

A little bit of the warm atmosphere was easily swept away, and Ming Huan’s voice also hardened, “Why cancel? If an alpha can do it, why can’t I?”

He thought of Xie Shuci, who was almost removed by his father because of his differentiation into an omega.

‘Why had Yu Hanzhou also asked him if he wanted to leave?’

Ming Huan stood up, “This is sexism! Don’t forget, I passed the Junior commander exam. The task I was asked to complete, I completed.” He threw the latest interstellar court trial announcement in front of Yu Hanzhou, “Look, the interstellar court awarded the planet to the Federation–I helped too. Even if I am an omega, am I any worse than any alpha?!”

Ming Huan blew up, almost snapping the light screen at his fingertips towards Yu Hanzhou’s head, “Why should they be able to take a class that I can’t take?!”

Yu Hanzhou lightly coughed twice, as if sleepy, and leaned his back on the seat, “Not that. And, no, I’m not saying you don’t have to take it.”

Ming Huan choked for a moment.

“In the end, you can do what you want, or do not have to do what you don’t want.”

“….” Ming Huan was silent.

“If you want to go, I will continue to enroll you in private lessons and find a beta teacher. Only one thing, no classes with alphas.” Yu Hanzhou leaned his back against the bench, and his eyes were stained with a heavy weariness. He stared at Ming Huan, “I’ve followed through and I can provide everything I can, but, don’t get close to alphas, let alone get marked.”

He could tell that Yu Hanzhou was so resistant to his early love…. so resistant.

When he was a quasi-alpha, Yu Hanzhou just gave him the look and told him to stay away from the young omegas. Now that he was an omega, Yu Hanzhou was even more forceful, directly canceling all the alpha classes for him.

The classes he could go to were private ones without alphas.

He died laughing.

Although Ming Huan did not expect to understand Yu Hanzhou, sometimes he really wanted to pick his head to see what he was thinking.

‘Is it because he did not match with any omegas?’

‘He had to pull him with him and make him a single dog forever too?’

‘What extreme stupidity was this?’

‘Why did he not care when he was an alpha but now cared when he was an omega?’

Yu Hanzhou had always been able to draw him numerous bottom lines that he had set, limiting him to death.

“We will take a trip to the military. But not until tomorrow, just fall asleep at home. Tomorrow when you wake up, I will accompany you to plant the flowers in the backyard, okay?” Yu Hanzhou saw Ming Huan’s silence and once again tried to talk to him. He didn’t understand at all what the young omega would be thinking.

‘Why was he frowning so tightly?’

When he was holding him down and giving him an inhibitor, he had been so aggravated and now he needed to be coaxed.

Yu Hanzhou’s long hand fished and pulled Ming Huan over into his arms.

He hesitantly used his hand to pat the back of Ming Huan’s head.

This is a great way to coax young omegas according to people on the internet, by rubbing their soft and fluffy hair.

–Omegas love the feeling of being favored, so make sure they constantly feel that they are being cared for.

— Tell young omegas that they will always be loved.

“I….” Yu Hanzhou choked, coughed slightly, and sighed, “I’ll take care of it, Ming Huan.”

Ming Huan heard these words, and his heart gave a thud.

In fact, in the past three years, Yu Hanzhou did not talk about taking care of anything at all.

He provided him with a good living environment, gave him food and clothing, but at that time, he almost did not do any spiritual and emotional communication with him. It was as if he was just a cactus that only needed to be watered once a month at home, and he was only in the industry on his strict requirements, always in his control.

Since he reached his growth period, Yu Hanzhou saw that he was not feeling well, so he started to intervene more in his life.

The two of them also communicated more.

Yu Hanzhou was indeed very good to him in the past two days, taking care of his preferences perfectly and showing him that “I can not only raise an alpha, but I can also take care of an omega” with great efficiency and strength.

Ming Huan admitted that he was completely subservient to the nature of an omega and was taken care of by Yu Hanzhou.

–He was indeed very happy.

He was so happy that he could almost forget all his worries and concerns for a few moments, as if he was only immersed in some beautiful and expensive fairy tale.

A sense of satisfaction that was engraved in the genes of every omega, just like a bear that would like honey and just like a butterfly that would like the smell of flowers.

However, not all bears would go pull out the honeycomb full of bees.

Not all butterflies would swoop down on flowers with spiders hiding on the stems and leaves.

“Ming Huan?” Yu Hanzhou asked him again, “You haven’t told me what you want. I can make arrangements.”

His tone was gentle, and was not cold and stern like before.

However, Ming Huan didn’t want to answer again, since felt that it might be an answer that would make Yu Hanzhou snicker.

‘I want.’

‘–Freedom.’

Ming Huan’s wilted expression fell on Yu Hanzhou’s eyes, and his unwillingness to talk caused him to frown invisibly.

He dialed Capital Hospital once more from his terminal and sent the message to Dean Shu.

***

After arriving at the admiral’s house, Ming Huan took a hasty shower and was ready to go to bed.

Yu Hanzhou, as he said, went to the military department after dropping him off, as if an official document needed to be approved for urgent processing.

He didn’t feel comfortable leaving Ming Huan at home alone, so he sent a message a short while ago asking Dean Shu’s son to come over and take care of him for a while.

Shu Yun.

He was a very excellent omega.

When Shu Yun took a small flying machine and got permission to stay at the admiral’s residence for 24 hours, Ming Huan had just come out of the shower when he entered.

He was wearing a new thin pajama top and a short pair of loose grass green pajama shorts that only reached his knees.

The scent of the omega’s special bathing agent was refreshing.

He had a pretty face.

Shu Yun clearly learned from his father that Ming Huan had differentiated into an omega.

At this moment, for some reason, his ears were still slightly red.

After all, he was older than Ming Huan and was the eldest, so if he showed embarrassment, Ming Huan would be even more embarrassed.

The medical kit was opened and Ming Huan lifted up a little bit of his sweatshirt, remembering what Yu Hanzhou had told him to do. He first applied medicine to a little red scrape on Ming Huan’s waist.

It was an abrasion.

In fact, it was just a little red but the skin was not broken.

Shu Yun’s unexpected silence made Ming Huan sulk a bit, and he thought of how happy they were when they were in mecha class together at school, “I didn’t expect it, but we both…. I can’t believe that we’ve both differentiated into omegas.”

Shu Yun lowered his head, and Ming Huan could not see his expression, “You do not like being an omega?”

He sighed gently again, “Yes, how excellent. Must really want to become alpha and be a commander.”

“Can’t an omega be a commander?”

Shu Yun moved with a slight pause.”Not really.”

Suddenly seeming to remember something, Shu Yun put the ointment away while asking, “Ming Huan, isn’t it true that you haven’t learned the course of the omega related knowledge system? The ones you received before, they were all about alphas, right?”

Ming Huan shook his head blankly. “So, the differentiation probability is the problem.” Shu Yun knew differentiation probability himself, “Because of the high probability of differentiation of an alpha in [differential prediction], we were raised with alpha parenting. But when it comes time to differentiate, but accidentally differentiate into an omega, it will make our understanding of the world seriously confusing and reckless, so it will be easy for an emotional breakdown.”

Although he just graduated, Shu Yun was a young doctor with a good reputation.

He was also a distinguished graduate of Federation’s 1st Military Academy Hospital.

Before graduating, his major field of study was on the “research of alpha and omega behavioral and psychological tendencies”. He was half a psychological researcher.

Yu Hanzhou seemed to be able to see Ming Huan’s mood on some problems, so he called him over today as he should also do a little psychological guidance for him.

After all, the young omega dragon was in his differentiation period. This was the most sensitive period mentally. A careless comment could cause a mental energy riot.

“Ming Huan, the Federation’s identification section has the [differentiate prediction] test for dragons.”

“For dragons, an alpha and omega have a natural difference. The manifestation of this is more obvious and extreme than humans. And the growth period after the dragon’s shell is very short, only about one to three years. If in this period, the hatchling did not learn the relevant systematic knowledge and constantly practice, it is easy to cause confusion and mental energy riots during the differentiation time, or it could even be more serious after.”

In the original novel, Ming Huan did not come to the Federation at all.

From the beginning, the protagonist was stranded in the slums of the Empire, and then was found by the consul. After suffering the period of differentiation, the protagonist began to completely blacken and provoke war – and finally set off another interstellar war, only to meet the Federation’s god of war, Yu Hanzhou. With the white feathered dragon, he started a long fight.

From the information given in the original, he was indeed on the Federation’s side in the first place, and the legal provisions were not at all clear.

In contrast, he knew more about the structure of the Empire.

Shu Yun’s words seemed to tear open a little crack, allowing Ming Huan to see something clearly.

“[Differentiate prediction] emerged so that the newborn hatchlings of the dragon race can, for a short, limited time, selectively learn what is more useful for their future, in order to overcome the innate perceptual intuitive deficit brought about in their genes.”

“Alphas have an unusually strong thirst for conquest and low self-control of desire. Omegas have an unusually clear sense of anticipation when it comes to beautiful and fantastic things, and they have great emotional ups and downs.”

“For alphas, it’s imperative that self-control and conquest must be constantly practiced in the growth period which will be freely controlled. Powerful warplanes, advanced battle armor, these things bring a sense of excitement that will be very large. These often let some powerful alpha pups conquer a surge of desire, and lose self-control, resulting in mental energy storms.”

“And for omegas, the sense of anticipation for self-control and effect weakening is a must. When the desire is met or the opposite – seriously unmet, emotional ups and downs will reach abnormal heights. It’s also easy for mental energy to run wild.”

Shu Yun fetched the isolation patch and reapplied it to Ming Huan.

Warm fingers touched Ming Huan’s skin.

“So, for omegas who have big emotional ups and downs and can barely be controlled, they are prone to being judgemental. It’s hard to become a commander. Moreover, most omegas’ characters are quiet and introverted, naturally delicate, and the vast majority are not willing to go through this suffering. On the contrary, artistic creation, or the need for patience and care, the sense of competition is not strong. So jobs with little pressure, on the contrary, are more suitable for omegas.”

“But I, because I was judged to be an alpha at the beginning, my father always wanted me to be a doctor. I differentiated late and spent my fourth year in the growth period, when my values and personal abilities took shape. So, after graduation, I still decided to become a doctor.”

“Willing to suffer or not. The main thing is to do it for yourself. It’s just that choosing a path that most omegas don’t take is not understood by many people.”

Shu Yun took a few more oral pills and placed them in Ming Huan’s palm, “Do you really want to be a commander? Commanders and doctors are very different. It’s extremely hard for an omega who wants to be a commander.”
