Chapter 66.1 - Magic of Human Transformation
66.1 Magic of Human Transformation
Eh Why do you want To become human?
Completely forgetting all about her previous insincere smile, Lyla looked at me as if saying Why do you want that magic? alas, she snapped back immediately and looked at me again like a frightened kitten.
Maybe she thought that i was gonna scold her for her unintentional retort.
Just interested.
I replied in a way that wouldn't be noticed at all.
Regarding magic, it's my creed to have as much magic as I can.
I can teach you the magic but
Lyla seems to be stuttering.
You have to drink my blood to learn that ma
Ga
I quickly covered her lips upon realizing what she wanted to say.
I mean, wouldn't I be treated as a pervert who drinks the blood of this innocent girl for my overall display of my inquisitive curiosity? 𝚏𝚛ee𝐰𝗲𝚋n𝐨𝘃𝗲l.𝐜𝐨m
I-I see. First time I am hearing about this.
I decided to put an adlib, trying my best to look like this was the first time I heard about this.
I know I know that drinking the filthy blood of a white dragon like me is Sounds so detestable.
Lyla who spoke bit by bit like that looked like a really pitiful, and helpless girl.
This girl's Confidence is really low
Naturally. There's no way she would turn into a bright and lively girl while being raised around the darkling. On top of the constant oppression, she's also offered as a sacrifice in the end
Thus, she ended up having such low self-esteem and tended to give up on everything. This was the result of her trying to protect her heart from the environment around her.
Ante, are you trying to say that her heart would break unless she did that?
Honestly speaking, the one thing I wanted to do the most right now was prostrating in front of her, apologizing for killing her father, revealing my identity, and promising her that she would be put under my protection after this.
Alas, that was the one thing I couldn't do the most.
It was painful and yet I still couldn't fully trust Lyla, at least for now.
There was a small possibility of her secretly holding a grudge toward me and waiting till the right moment to exact her revenge, or she might be the spy planted by the dark dragon to dig for information from me.
Still, I'm curious about what she said a while ago about I don't care what happened to me but, please show your benevolence to the dragon race.. Maybe she was put under the impression that she was a sinful being and she had to sacrifice herself for the good of the dragon race.
If those words didn't come from herself, that might be some sort of curse, magic, or brainwashing that was hidden deep in her mind.
That kind of curse would work since I had Liliana with me. But the only thing that I couldn't change was her grudge toward me
It was something that could only be eased up with time while slowly building a relationship of trust with her to the point that I could entrust her with my secret
Are you going to reveal your true identity to this girl?
Asked Ante with a dumbfounded voice.
Well, that was one of the viable options.
The reason being Lyla's mobility in her dragon form would give me much more options in the future.
And maybe She could deliver Liliana straight to the alliance.
But still, I couldn't just use Lyla as my Leg. Not to mention that I was completely defenseless in the air. When I ride her high in the air it would be the perfect moment for her to exact her revenge by dropping me from a high altitude.
That's why I need to build a relationship of mutual trust with her.
Lyla might have given her full cooperation once she knew that my target of revenge was the demon king and dark dragon Orphen.
Finally, her true target of revenge Namely the killer of her father, me.
Once everything has ended, I'm more than willing to give my life to her if she really wanted me to die.
She had that right, and I Had the duty to fulfill her wish!
You're serious huh.
I'm not a liar like you, Ante.
But, you can actually make her to trust you even without having to waste so much time. Just use "Taboo to Lie". That will let her to say her true feeling.
Yeah, true enough.
But, forcing her to spew her true feeling with magic is like stepping rudely into her most private part
Can we really build a relationship of trust by doing that?
Then don't say that.
It's not like I wanted Lyla to become my cooperator
This is for my own self-satisfaction.
Alas, it might sound presumptuous for me who robbed her of her father to say this.
I just I just want Lyla to experience normal happiness. For that, I'm willing to bear all the suffering and the sadness that would come after this
Hero-like pride huh.
Ante was sneering at me.
But, that's not a problem. Do as you wish, my contractor.
That's none of your business, you might not refuse my plan someday.
But, seeing Lyla's strong will alone was enough To make me happy.
You might be tired of always having to agree with my egoism but
Uhm
Lyla's face paled due to anxiety upon seeing me saying nothing.
Ah, my bad. I was just pondering about something.
Maybe she got scared of what I'm going to do to her after seeing me thinking for so long.
I felt really frustrated at this kind of time when I couldn't make her calm down with my smile. I mean, seeing my smile definitely wouldn't make her happy.
No need to worry about the matter of your blood. I'm a demon race, and I don't think your blood is dirty. It's just a light attribute, that's it.
Thus I emphasized to her again that I want to learn the magic of human transformation.
In addition Being put under my wings will also protect you from any harm.
I mentioned this matter to the dumbfounded Lyla, making it look like it's just a natural thing.
Doing that might give some heartache to those dark dragons who oppressed you. As I've told you before, I'm not the kind of ba*stard whose hobby is torturing my subordinate.
I mean, I would be frustrated for sure if she really thinks that I'm that kind of bas*tard.
But well It might be more convenient if she really thinks that I'm that kind of ba*stard!!
Seeing that you came under my wings, you naturally have to contribute to something, and naturally, I'll give you a reward if you do a good job. Since teaching me a new magic can be considered as contribution, no one will question how I'm going to reward you later.
Man, now I had no choice but to use this kind of method, namely whip and carrot.
I mean, Lyla might get creeped out instead if I suddenly act really kind to her for no reason.
I mean, the enemy of her father was the prideful demon prince.
Treating her kindly might have made her think that I had some sort of ulterior motive. Something like I might actually be in cahoot with the dark dragon and when she let her guard down, I would say something like Are you really believing me, stupid girl? and make her fall into an even greater despair.
Not to mention that she couldn't just trust the kindness of a stranger, not to mention that the stranger was her father's killer.
But she might trust me if it was a relationship based on our interests.
