The cubs leaped on Zed and began playing with him. Their eyes contained a combination of awe, respect, and happiness.
The Red Tiger growled in joy as she saw Zed obliging her children. He displayed no signs of being annoyed or frustrated by their behavior.
Rather, he seemed genuinely pleased.
This melted her heart with happiness.
His facial characteristics, aura, and even body smell might have changed from the man she remembered, but she was fully sure he was still that man.
The feeling she felt back then still existed.
The unique aroma of power was still the same, but just with a major difference. This aroma of power was suppressed within. It was like something inside him was sealing it, like a container.
He was truly the man who saved her family.
Their savior.
When he first protected them, she didn't dare express her gratitude. She was afraid that he saved them just to relieve his boredom.
