New law of Beast Taming-Chapter 411 - 412: Wake up call [pt1]

At the start of the world, a light had created life. It had enrichened its existence and formed various stars and planets among it.

And then it had created deities that could look after its creations. The gods had created more creations in return and enriched the world even more. That was the cycle of life in the beginning.

And that was what Amane knew as well. That was why the first creations had been so significant. They had the direct power of their creator and could imitate him in all ways. That included ’The Law’ and the mother of all dragons, Rabelais.

These powers were made to keep each other, as well as the universe, stable. But as the creator’s influence had dwindled, these powers had gained new authority.

The other living creatures could not handle such magnificence and had branded these entities as ’gods.’

"We are gods, but no one knows our purpose anymore. The tyranny of ’The Law’ has gone on for too long. If he is going to interfere with our existence, then he should be removed, right?"

Kori seemed to amend her demands, and Amane did agree with her. But she did not want to go out of her way and help Kori out either.

"While I agree with you, I want to set some things straight here. I am not here to help you take down ’The Law.’ I am here to wake Sakura and find Charlie Suzuki in the rift."

"I will do my part, so there is no need for you to worry. But do not expect too much from me either."

Amane warned Kori not to have her expectations set too high. Kori looked at her with blank eyes before she laughed out loud.

"Of course, I understand what you are saying. Don’t worry, and I will not ask you to do anything beyond what is required. But you carry Rabelais powers so that you will come in handy."

Kori explained, and even Amane could not deny it. She might not have the control, but Amane did have the ancient power of the dragons.

"Anyway, we must start with the easy thing and take down the government. This way, we will have a lot of influence over the regular people and we will be able to deploy them when the time is right."

Kori had things planned out. But Amane had a few doubts.

"Are you going to use ’The HIVE’’ to gain influence? I would suggest you find another way. This is an infamous organization, and you will be closing off your options."

Amane reminded Kori of this. But there was no need for her to do that. Kori was aware of what she was proposing.

"Hmm, you are right. I cannot use The HIVE to gain influence over the government. Well, not if it is the face. But it can be the backbone and push forward another face in the spotlight, right? A face that has been making waves everywhere it goes, right?"

Amane did not know why, but she felt Kori was pushing her into a pit. She immediately wanted to look away and ignore the suggestive look Kori was sending her way.

"No, I am not going to participate in your ridiculous shit, and you cannot make me. I refuse to become the public face for your agenda."

Amane denied Kori, causing her to pout. But she, thankfully, did not throw a fit in return and remained calm.

"Fine, I get it. You do not want to cooperate with me, so I will not make you do so. But you need to give me an alternative here. I need someone to put forth as the face of the government."

Kori asked, and Amane had to think it through.

Not because there were few options but because there were too many to count here. But in the end, Amane could only think of one person to take charge of the government.

Someone who had been there long enough to gain a clean reputation and influence on people.

"I think…it is time to make Stella confident and make use of her."

Amane did not want to drag other people into her mess. But this time, she was willing to drag Stella into it mainly because she knew that Stella was her best choice.

"Hmm, so you already have someone in mind? I think I have heard the name ’Stella’ before. Let me remember where I have heard it before…Ah, I remember now. She’s that stubborn but respected government official who has been there the longest."

"She might work well for our agenda. But are you sure you could convince her to help us out? Isn’t she going to decline?"

Kori asked without any expectations. Stella had been on the list of people she had shortlisted before. But when she asked Chen about it, Chen looked awkward and asked Kori to pick someone else.

Chen had talked to Stella about all this before, but she had looked uninterested. He had dropped the topic after a while, not wanting his expectations to keep dropping all the time.

"Hmm, Stella is stubborn, but I can convince her about this topic. I might need some time, but I can pull it off."

Amane assured Kori, and the certainty in her eyes convinced Kori. And even if it had not had, Kori would have still given Amane the benefit of the doubt here.

"Fine, you can head out and convince Stella to join us. But be careful and keep to yourself most of the time. We do not want other people to know about this."

Amane nodded and opened the door. She was startled to find Chen outside the door and in the pose to knock on it.

She was sure Chen had not heard anything spoken between her and Kori.

"I…Yoko Tsurugi? What are you doing here?"

Chen asked while looking behind her. He was startled to see that his father had no mask on. Her face was bare and showing for the world.

Not only that but her body was warped up in loose robes, indicating that she was not dressed up.

’Did they spend a night together? It would not be too farfetched since Yoko reminds me of Amane. But would father betray Amane like that?’

Since Chen did not know the truth, he had it all wrong. He could not help but give Amane a glare for daring to spend the night in here.

"Chen, come inside if you want. Do not block the hallway. And Yoko, do think about what I said to you. There is a limit to my patience and generosity. You should take advantage of it when you can."

Yoko Tsurugi nodded and walked out. Chen breathed a sigh of relief he had been holding all this time and then turned toward his father.

There was not much he wanted to ask Kori, but he ended up asking her about what happened here.

"Father, what were you doing? I thought we planned to sacrifice Yoko Tsurugi to bring Mother back. Did you spend a night with Yoko?"

Chen asked as he took the seat vacated by Yoko just seconds prior. He did not look happy, and he let his father know through his actions.

But as expected, Kori did not even care that Chen was acting out. She just sipped her tea and looked at Chen as if he was in the wrong.

"Yoko Tsurugi will be able to help us with our goal. So, for now, I have no intention of abandoning her. You should calm down for the time being as well."

Kori explained, but Chen was not ready to give up yet. He clenched his fist and looked down.

"No! I will not give up. Father, I know your plan to bring down ’The Law’ is important, but we can do that once we have Mother back. I will not give up on my plan. Not now."

Chen admitted before he walked out of the room. Kori wanted to sigh at how naive her child had turned out to be.

For someone who had a lot of knowledge, he could have been more brightly when it came to emotions. She needed to find out whom Chen had taken over to turn out like this. Neither she nor Amane were this dense when it came to feelings.

"Never mind. I am sure we have been discovering by now, and it will not be long before ’The Law’ makes its move. We need to be prepared to counter it at any cost."

’Retrieve your power and punish those who dare to go against the divine rule. That is the purpose of your existence. You need to get the ability of Rabelais back from the hands of the traitors. If not, then you will need to fortify your life. The contract has been sealed.’

A white hand clutched the comforters, and the dragon opened her eyes.

Moony looked down at her hands, and they looked like a human. Her powers were also stable, meaning that she had completed her transformation.

Everything looked alright, and she was finally able to use her powers. But her chest still felt hollow, almost as if something was missing from there.

"E-Excuse me, but may I come in? It was time for lunch, and I brought food. A-Actually, I will leave the food out here….epppp."

The maid was startled when Moony suddenly opened the door and flashed her naked self out for the world to see.

"Forget about food. Get me some clothes first and a phone. I need to make a call first."
