Although strictly speaking, the raven only needed to activate its first ability “Manipulate Fortune” to make Loren fall asleep under the blessing of luck.

But the raven also wanted to experience the new ability it had just obtained.

Who isn’t a playful “child” after all?

Judging from the time it gained intelligence.

It was also a young “little child,” and it was also a “youngster” who liked novelty.

When Loren woke up, it was already evening of the next day.

The continuous high-intensity battles, plus advancing two tiers in a very short period, made both his body and spirit require sufficient rest.

Loren got up from the sofa, facing the evening sunset, and stretched comfortably.

Then Loren casually canceled the fifth ability the raven had cast on him.

Looking at the raven sleeping on another sofa, he quietly approached, then suddenly shouted:

“Wake up!”

The raven was startled by Loren’s voice, its wings fluttering instinctively.

It “jumped” up from the sofa, almost hitting the ceiling of the lounge.

“Dear master, I must say, you’re being quite mischievous…”

Having regained its composure, the raven gracefully landed on Loren’s shoulder and made a sarcastic remark.

Loren smiled slightly without responding.

So amusing…

Keeping a straight face, Loren walked into the room’s bathroom with the raven on his shoulder.

Soon, screams from the raven could be heard from the bathroom.

“Master!!! I’m an energy entity! I don’t need baths!!”

“Stop! Get that showerhead away!!!”

“My feathers!!! Damn Loren!!! Stop right now!!!”

Amid the raven’s screams, both man and bird completed their washing up.

Loren washed his face.

While the raven took a bath, albeit forced.

Loren walked out of the bathroom refreshed and invigorated, with the raven’s feathers still slightly damp.

The somewhat angry raven continued complaining:

“Damn Loren! Your personality is truly awful!”

“I used my ability on you last night just to let you rest properly!!! And you actually retaliate against your own psychic ability like this!”

“Even as a raven, I have crow rights!!”

“Birds! Don’t use showerheads for baths!!!”

Hearing this, Loren blinked his eyes and spoke seriously to the raven on his shoulder:

“Then you might need to contact the Federation’s animal protection organization first.”

As he spoke, Loren walked to the sofa.

He bent down and picked up the top hat he had taken off last night from the sofa armrest.

After putting it on his head, he raised his hand to adjust the collar of his black coat.

Because he had slept in his clothes last night, the collar of Loren’s black coat had become somewhat wrinkled.

Going out dressed like this wasn’t a gentleman’s choice.

After completing everything above, Loren nodded with satisfaction.

“Let’s go, let’s see if the branch restaurant has any new dishes.”

“Dear master, I think I need some fresh fruit.”

“Oh? What happened to ‘damn Loren’?” Loren asked with a smile.

“Dear master, I think you must have misheard,” the raven said flatteringly.

Loren chuckled lightly and left the lounge.

The Interstellar Hunter branch restaurant was on the fourth floor, taking up the entire level.

Given these constantly wandering Interstellar Hunters’ pursuit of fine cuisine.

The restaurant’s area was exceptionally spacious.

Loren took out his hunter license, and after getting some roasted meat and fruit, brought the raven to a corner of the restaurant to begin their meal.

The roasted meat was ordered by Loren.

The fruit was strongly requested by the raven.

Just as both man and bird were happily eating in the corner.

A beautiful woman wearing a fitted long dress, carrying a tray filled with abundant dishes, walked over and sat down opposite Loren.

The raven looked up at the uninvited woman, then turned to Loren and said:

“Master, it seems an adult human female wants to hit on you.”

Loren stopped eating and looked up at the woman opposite:

“Something the matter?”

“I’m an investigator from the Federation Energy Department, you can call me Isha. I’m here to ask you about some things.”

Loren put down the roasted meat in his hand and wiped his greasy fingers with a tissue.

After wiping his fingers, Loren glanced at the raven beside him.

The raven pretended nothing was happening as it continued pecking at the fruit, while secretly activating its ability.

“Fortune.”

When Loren activated his ability, he needed to snap his fingers.

But the raven was much more convenient – as the psychic ability itself, it didn’t need these extra actions.

After sensing the “Fortune” added to himself, Loren calmly looked at the investigator who called herself “Isha” and asked:

“Has the Energy Department’s reach already extended to the Interstellar Hunter Association?”

“Don’t misunderstand, besides being an Energy Department investigator, I’m also a fifth-tier Interstellar Hunter.”

Isha maintained a calm expression, using her right index and middle fingers to pull out a hunter license from the substantial cleavage at her chest.

Holding the thin hunter license between her fingers, she swayed it charmingly before Loren’s eyes.

“See,” Isha smiled, indicating for Loren to check her hunter license.

Loren gently waved his hand. It seems she came prepared…

And Loren had already begun rapidly recalling in his mind which past action of his had offended the Energy Department, causing them to discover and target him.

Unfortunately, Loren had no clues.

Although Loren knew he was a restless person, after careful recollection, he realized he truly hadn’t had opportunities to make enemies with the Energy Department.

This abandoned resource planet hadn’t had Energy Department personnel stationed here in the past.

Wait… that investigator I eliminated??

No, for just a small investigator, would they go to such lengths?

Loren wasn’t very certain in his heart.

“Master, do adult human females always maintain this estrus state?” the raven asked from the side.

“Ahem! This is one type of investigation technique, you don’t need to understand,” Isha supported her head, somewhat embarrassed as she explained to the raven.

After the raven’s intentional interruption bought a little time, Loren had formulated a plan in his heart.

Loren leaned back leisurely against the restaurant chair behind him, a black and gold revolver appearing in his hand, which he began spinning skillfully between his fingers.

Simultaneously, Loren casually revealed his fifth-tier superhuman aura.

“I wonder what Miss Isha wants to know?”

Isha felt Loren’s aura and narrowed her eyes.

Another troublesome character?

“Was it you, Mr. Loren, who sent the public mission to other star sectors?”

After learning Loren’s tier, Isha finally used an honorific in her speech, politely addressing Loren as “Mr.” instead of using “you.”

“Yes, is the Energy Department going to reward me?” Loren asked with a smile.

Isha’s mouth twitched. Reward you?

You made the Energy Department’s scandal known to everyone, and you still want a reward?!

“I’m sorry, the Energy Department hasn’t had rewards in this area before. After I return this time, I’ll submit a report to the higher-ups mentioning this matter.”
