Demi-human Girls Completion Manual-Chapter 27 - . Signs of Adulthood

"Raphael, come take a look at this part of the content."

Early in the morning, after Fisher had sent away the Human who had stayed over the night, he returned with the Fermat Baha Dragon Court Magic Book and sought out Raphael. Just yesterday, he had said he would temporarily put aside this part of the research, but as soon as he closed his eyes to sleep, he wondered if he could integrate Human Ring Magic with Dragon-man Magic.

It might substantially increase the upper limit of Dragon Magic or perhaps even create a new type of magic.

However, such an attempt would have to wait until he completely understood the content of the Magic Book. With a Dragon-man right in front of him, resolving linguistic issues would be easy.

For breakfast, they ate some kind of roasted mole, a food stored by a mountain armor subhuman named Fama Xi, which Lar liked very much. Raphael was getting closer and closer to her coming of age ceremony, and although her body was growing weaker, her spirit was highly excited, even her breath was hot.

This content is taken from freёnovelkiss.com.

Raphael wiped her mouth and looked at the antiquated manuscripts Fisher passed to her with Dragon Court script annotated with a quill pen, neatly accompanied by a line of Nali calligraphy text, which Raphael couldn't understand.

Fisher had the habit of marking books; when he read them the second time, it always reminded him of what he had been thinking before, which could possibly broaden his other lines of thought.

"Explain to me the sentences and phrases where it's underlined."

Raphael opened her mouth, then flipped through the book cover,

"Wait, this is our Dragon Court Magic Book. Where did you find it?"

"I bought it."

Fisher lied expressionlessly, hiding the Completion Manual that only he could see, and he would not discuss the existence of the Completion Manual with anyone.

"...How many treasures have you Humans dug up? Our tribe doesn't have such things; perhaps only much older tribes would possess one or two copies," Raphael browsed through the content, then said, "We do not use Magic much. Although it's powerful, the user itself is vulnerable to harm from Magic; it's probably been a long time since there has been a Dragon-man Mage..."

It seemed that the Dragon-man Species was not foolish; they were aware of their own Magic's flaws.

Fisher thought about last night's Magic and suddenly felt that Dragon-man Mages were a kind of suicide soldier to some extent, needing only to rush into a crowd, shout "release Magic," and then everyone would meet their end together.

"It's just for academic research, and it might also help improve some of your Magics... The terms used inside are very archaic, making it hard to read, so I need your help to translate part of it."

Raphael looked at Fisher skeptically, although she did not quite believe Fisher would do such a good deed. But as he had said the night before, he truly could put aside his prejudices and wholeheartedly study something, even if that something belonged to demi-humans whom Humans considered very lowly.

Raphael was silent for a while, then her Dragon Claw pointed to the first place Fisher had marked, beginning to translate the content for him,

"Dragon General's Claw, Boiling Fire..."

While Raphael was explaining that extremely abstruse and ancient Magic Book, Lar blinked her eyes and looked at the two White Dragon People in front of her with dark circles under their eyes.

"You two! You definitely went out and had fun without Lar yesterday. Tell me, what fun thing did you not want to include Lar in?"

Kexier and Fasher seemed to be pondering something and were startled by Lar's sudden questioning, their faces filled with exasperation as they poked her cheek,

"You little brat..."

"Stay away from us, yesterday..."

The two sisters exchanged glances, then said somewhat guiltily and in unison,

"We didn't sleep well."

Lar chewed on the new term "little brat" that the sisters suddenly used, curious where they had learned it. Just as she was about to ask, the two sisters stood up and walked away in another direction, seeming not to want to pay her any attention at all.

Who knew what the two of them thought about last night. The Human's touch seemed to set them ablaze, and even though they usually slept together, they had temporarily kept some distance from each other for fear of touching the same spot again at night. However, the embarrassment did not fade, leaving them troubled and sleepless all night.

Since Fasher and Kexier did not want to play with her, she could only wander nearby, catching sight of Spiderman Xi Ya and Brain Demon Kree emerging from the cave, their faces returning to their normal shades.

Seeing the enormous Spiderman come out, Lar got a fright but quickly crossed his arms and made a face at her. Just as Xi Ya frowned and was about to move, Lar quickly ran over to Fisher's side.

"This little Dragon-man kid!"

Xi Ya bit her lip, just about to act, but the semi-illusory Kree stopped her with a look,

"Don't cause trouble, Xi Ya. The fact that we're still alive is all thanks to that unusual Human..."

"That's also because we still have utility."

Xi Ya murmured under her breath.

"Perhaps..."

Kree floated towards Fisher's direction and waited until both his and Lord Raphael's gaze were drawn to her before she slightly bowed her head and said,

"Lord Fisher, the materials have been ready since this morning, and the coming of age ceremony for this young Dragon-man Species lady can be held tonight."

Fisher nodded and said indifferently,

"After the ceremony, we will leave."

"The ritual needs to be performed near a water source. There's a lake near the forest around here. If you don't mind, we can set off in the afternoon, and if all goes well, she will transform into a true Dragon-man Warrior tonight."

Fisher glanced at the now weakened Lord Raphael beside him. The red scales on her hands were already starting to fall off, with harder scales growing out from where the old scales had shed.

With closer observation, Fisher discovered that her breathing was very rapid, exhaling a large breath of scorching air with each breath, as if there was a perpetual steam engine inside her.

Every sign indicated that the unique red Dragon-man Species before him was about to come of age.

Fisher looked down, locking eyes with her emerald pupils. After a second, Lord Raphael turned her gaze away first, looking elsewhere. She was not very good at making eye contact with the Human in front of her, especially after spending so much time together.

After waiting a moment for her to avert her gaze, just as she was about to lift her head to make eye contact again, he had already turned and walked towards the direction of the carriage, his voice growing more distant.

"Then let's prepare to depart."

"..."

"Lord Raphael, you're coming of age!"

In the next moment, Lar dove over and interrupted her thoughts, his small body almost knocking Lord Raphael over. Fortunately, Mier was behind her to steady her, "My mom always said that when Lord Raphael comes of age, she will be the most beautiful and powerful Dragon-man. When Lar grows up, I want to be just like Lord Raphael... It's just that my scales aren't red. I heard Humans dye things; maybe I could dye myself red..."

"Lord Raphael, you're finally coming of age... If it were in the tribe, the Clan Leader and the others would definitely be overjoyed to see you grow up."

Mier also smiled, causing Lord Raphael to involuntarily think of her parents.

That somewhat elderly couple would still be looking at her sternly if they were here.

Among the children of her parents, she was the only one with red scales, which made her always feel like an outlier, different from her siblings. That was why she always wanted to avoid their gazes, their lectures.

But now, having left the tribe, she missed them very much and longed to see them.

Surely, upon seeing her come of age, they would have shown proud expressions.

She gently held Mier's hand, the scales on her hands and legs so fragile they fell off due to the movement, but her breathing was getting hotter and hotter, as though it could scorch the air.

She was about to come of age.
