Reincarnated As A Lion In Another World-Chapter 136: Learn From Duller

Commander Bibi was tempted to go up to Kael and tell the king about the other wolf clans, maybe he had forgotten.

No, how could he forget such a crucial thing? Bibi shook his head, it was weird that he was plotting again on race for the sake of little war benefits.

This was something that the Lions would not do. It wasn’t that lions were righteous and put their race above all else, their mentality just didn’t allow it.

Why would a lion help another race fight against his own kind when he could just team up with other lions and beat the said race to submission?

It was a matter of priorities.

Amidst the joyful barks and howls, Prince Burdo stood with his four lionesses, his scaled face remained calm but his eyes could not hide the grievance he felt.

He had not done anything to assist them during the fight, instead, he had escaped to safety while his brother and his forces fought.

He didn’t deserve any rewards, that was basic sense. At least they saw Olivia on the battlefield doing whatever she had been doing, Prince Burdo was completely absent.

The level of discontent that would rise if Kael had rewarded him was not something that could be quelled easily with dominating words.

Still, Burdo felt a tinge of pain and regret, as well as greed. He hadn’t done anything, yes, but that didn’t stop him from coveting what did not belong to him.

This was basically his second nature as it was now. As he saw the wolves and foxes rejoice with the valuable carcasses in their grasps, he felt at a loss. It wasn’t like he could go ahead and forcefully take it from them… not when those lionesses were occasionally casting a watchful eye his way.

He had to make sure he didn’t give Kael any reason to dispose of him.

Meanwhile, behind Burdo and his five water lionesses, a large wolf stood not too far away with a cold expression.

The large grey wolf stared with barely hidden sharpness in his eyes. He looked at Burdo’s back with a mix of disdain and resentment, wishing his gaze could cut the lion open.

The scar that crossed over his cheek to his left eye was very menacing and added to his threatening demeanor. Currently, one of his eyes, the one that was crossed with a scar, was faded.

Kael who stood tall with a smile on his face in front of the crowd saw this. He noticed the malevolent glare of this wolf, Duller.

His expectations when he asked Duller to lead his brother to escape were not much. He had merely hoped for them to do something that would be a bit entertaining.

At least, he wouldn’t be bored after fighting Darius.

"Mother, have you seen Burdo?" Kael asked telepathically to Nalii.

Nalii frowned, "No," she shook her head. Burdo and Kael had met when Nalii was still slumbering and undergoing her evolution.

After she came out of the cave with Eidel and Katari, she had not had the chance to take a good look around so she didn’t even know that her other son was there.

"Where is he?" She asked. Kael didn’t answer, he simply stared intently at a particular direction.

Nalii followed the direction Kael’s eyes were looking at and followed his gaze. Her eyes landed on a larger-than-normal lion.

Azure fish-like scales covered this lion’s body and a single large dorsal fin stretched from his back to his neck while being in a folded state.

Behind him were five lionesses with the same fish-like scales on their bodies. The only difference between Burdo and the lionesses was the dorsal fin which was possessed by Burdo only. Burdo also had a bulkier physique than them, a testament to his superior male lion genes.

Burdo’s greenish-yellow amphibian-like eyes locked with Nalii’s. Although she was now in her human form, he could recognize her by scent and the two antlers that rested atop her head.

’Mother,’ He thought in his mind, he wanted her to notice him, to frown and then smile at him, to hug him and rub heads with him as mother and son.

He wanted to feel validated by his mother, maybe she would not forget that Burdo was also her son.

Alas, Burdo was destined to be wounded by his own imagination. Nii frowned when she finally recognized her son as the scaled water lion.

However, she didn’t step forward to greet him, she didn’t walk over to him or gestured for him to come to her. She simply frowned

It wasn’t the mind of frown someone had when they were worried, it wasn’t the kind that appeared on a mother’s face when she saw her son doing something wrong.

No, it was the type of frown someone had when they saw something annoying and disturbing.

Nalii had long lost her motherly feelings towards Burdo, not after all the bold moves he pulled back at the Hot Lion pride.

To her, she only had three children, Eidel, Ruda, and Kael. Even Pavel was long forgotten. And of those three, Kael was the one who carried the most importance.

Kael observed his mother’s reaction with a satisfied grin. This was what he wanted, for him to be the only son worth thinking of in Nalii’s heart, her whole world should revolve around him and him alone.

"Do you guys see that wolf behind them, the one with a scar on his face?" Kael asked.

This question was directed to all the four tier 3 lionesses beside him, not just Nalii. The four humanoids directed their gazes toward the wolf standing behind Burdo’s Pride.

Compared to the rest of the wolves who were rejoicing at the rewards that had been given to them, this tier 2 wolf didn’t seem interested.

His gloomy mood stood as a contrast to the lively atmosphere of those surrounding him.

"He’s a potential traitor, and a very scheming one. I was thinking of executing him but that would spoil the mood. Execution without charge breeds the wrong type of fear.

So since we can’t do anything about him, not without facing some issues, I wish to observe him, study him, and learn from him.

I want to know how the mind of a traitor works, and how would he plan his rebellion. What would he do? Who would he work with?

But as I do that, I am not against killing him if it gets too far. So I want you to keep your eyes on him, report any move he makes, the creatures he talks to, the places he goes.

Using him, we will learn how to quell rebellions and handle people like him easily in the future."

Kael’s words were reasonable to the four humanoids, although N’bayé found it to be a bit too risky.

Kael was learned and had a bit of knowledge on past kings on earth, but that was it, mostly surface knowledge. He didn’t really know the happenings of different eras.

There were a lot of rebellions that happened in the history of Earth. Some of them succeeded and some of them failed, all with different consequences.

Kael didn’t know much about them other than the fact that they had happened. He didn’t know how to stop a rebellion, neither did he know how to prevent it.

If he had known he would be in this state after dying, he would have made an effort to learn more about history and the strategies of different rules.

Now that he was here, he could only improvise. He could execute Duller, fine and good. But that was just a short-term solution, there was no strategy or prevention, just a cure after illness.

What he needed was experience, no lion was around to mentor him on how best to be a king and how to deal with threats to his kingdom.

Katari was silent, staring at Duller far longer and more intensely than the other. If not that Kael didn’t want this wolf dead, she would have taken the initiative to kill him on her own.

Duller had only made himself known after Bibi III died and Katari had just entered her evolution slumber. Duller had been operating for so long because the person who was active in hunting down people like him was asleep.

N’bayé glanced at the wolf, drawing up schemes in her mind as she thought of what to do. This was a direct order from Kael, to watch this unstable entity.

Subconsciously, she placed her hands on her abdomen, as though she wanted to feel something. Her face turned indifferent and calm after, she didn’t feel anything but she could tell that something was different.

She was carrying Kael’s first child, and it would be her first time becoming a mother.

For some reason though, the importance of this child didn’t carry the same weight as the importance of Kael. To her, she could always have children as much as she wanted l, but there would never be another Kael.

Perhaps, in this pride, only she and Kael knew the significance of a Primordial Lion to the whole lion race.

Compared to that, committing motherhood to this unborn child seemed like a waste of time, there was still so much to achieve and much more knowledge to acquire.

As N’bayé thought in this direction, her expression became colder and more indifferent.
