CHAPTER 13: Dragon-san Checks Her Hypothesis

About a month and a half after Nectar joined the effort of his fellow ed to carry out their coup with noand crowned a new one

And that would icians would be on the rise

Although it was now on a doard trend, sodown the demon army, Nectar and Kyle wanted to meet with me And so I came to the city

Ah, as expected their mode of transport is the staff

There were still reht now they would pose no threat, especially for the two of them

「…… It's terrible, Lava」

I think that the es froames, suited him way better than the criminal's clothes, it looked really cool on him, but the way in which Nectar looked atbad happened?」

「Please take a deep and long look inside of your heart and think about it」

I twisted ers at ht with them I honestly had no idea what this was all about Aside froical scale, of course

But judging fro that was certainly otiations with the new King's ar the for - were trapped inside of the royal castle by a powerful one in a uardsthey saere the figures of the terrifiedthat they could not dare to speak about publicly They all claim that the one to attack theon, and that she cah theand started to massacre everyone However, there are no bloodstains and everyone that was present was accounted for We are still investigating the poor fools, but we can't seem to find the ones who started this whole hallucinations reed to step down frouess it was good thing that we've ed to avoid the unnecessary battle and thatthe unnecessary bloodshed sure is nice Were there any other proble loudly

I didn't urila to any of the that

「This is a proble one at that, Lavdono The officials of the provisional govern and other on-woet to power and rule fro that the foron The reconstruction plans are going to be stuck in place thanks to this unrest」

Hht what I did that night would be taken so seriously, so much that they would even want to take testimonials about that

「There are lots of people in the upper echelons of the governon attacker since she understood hu said, there are also those who don't seeent than us humans We are aware of that, we talked to you, we can understand each other and each other's intentions, but there are those who are not aware of any of that I ed to contain the soldiers for now, but I can't say what kinds of disrespect you are going to encounter froht want to know about that ahead of tie at all that people would not trust ranted even if I promised not to harm them, since distrust towards predators was only natural for all living beings Rather, it would be strange if there was someone ould trust my words without any kind of hesitation

If so, there was no way for e that point of view I could only accept that

「That's only because I used to attack all of those who approachedthe leylines I have no interest in kings or govern to kill two birds with one stone here」

When I first arrived at this kingdoenuinely curious about what kind of place it was, and through my scales I could hear how people were in funeral-like attitude and that ith demons could not be avoided

Once I heard it, there was no way for me to simply un-hear it

Fortunately, the number of people ere aware of the mastermind was rather scarce, so I could easily put theet it by htmares upon them

After all, illusions and dreaht I was al that I couldn't do

Oh, and if by some reason there was someone ould still resist it, I could easily raise the level and intensity of htmares or even force them to enter a contract with me as a last resort

It's not like I patronize huht that avoiding the unnecessary bloodshed would be for the best, but it seems that this solution caused them some major inconveniences as well」

To this, Kyle corrected himself in a hurry

「No, that's not it Actually, the appearance of Lavdono has greatly helped us, and for that we are grateful But, the probleuy」

Kyle looks at Nectar in an obvious manner

How is Nectar a problem here?

Then I heard Nectars words, the very first since I met them today

「I wasn't the one for whom Lavsama donned the humanoid appearance ---- I aht now!」

What's this, it see idea here, Nectar-san

I wonder if Kyle heard hih

「You see, after he heard that you changed your appearance to fit in, he suddenly becaht you here in the first place and such」

Apparently it was so that had to do with me, but as I supposed to do?

I slowly turnagainst his knees, with his ar back and forth

「Nectar-san?」

「…… I know…… You didn't have to help us at all, and yet you did and it was all because of my selfish acts and wishes And since it was ret that I wasn't able to witness your transformation with et it, and soet it at all, but it all comes down to the fact that he was unable to satiate his academic curiosity?

Well, if it only about that, I can easily do so about it

「Nectar-san, please watch this」

Nectar looked with his ical power and changed ht in front of him

I could also see that Kyle was stunned as well

「It happened so fast I thought that you would need some more preparation in order to do that」

「Since e on form is the easiest to take, I adical powers get aic But it can be dangerous, for a high quantity of s For example, normal humans would faint instantly if they laid their eyes onthat foric is not all that great But thanks to the conversations I held with both of you, I finally ed to find a way to stabilize ical powers」

Since e it to soins to ooze out of e back

It even caused the deaths of smaller anie the way others perceive you froh it was slightly different, I nodded as to confir ical power, thanks to which I was able to bring ical power down to the point where huurila who helped ood at controlling various kinds of ic

Those baby steps made me feel very proud of myself
