Reincarnated As A Demonic Dragon, I Formed A Pact With A Beautiful Female Lord - Chapter 69

69 When Can You Turn into Human Form?

After they received the Dark Dragon King’s gift, the world in front of them changed. Su Wan and Shi Linglong found themselves back in the Overlord Plane.

In the distance, the Dark Dragon King’s figure loomed, covering both the sky and the sun.

“We are no longer trapped in the spiritual world?” said Su Wan, looking around.

Countless Lords launched attacks on the Dark Dragon King in the distance, hoping to surround and destroy him. Su Wan was now certain that this was really the Overlord Plane.

“Wanwan, I received a gift because of you!” said Shi Linglong in excitement.

!!
Su Wan nodded with a smile. She had also received a similar gift from the Dark Dragon King.

“Wait…,” said Shi Linglong. “We both received the gift at the same time, but how is it that you unlocked more troop types than me? Even the increase in your attributes is greater than mine.”

She read the notification carefully. “How dateable! Although our gifts are similar, they’re not the same!” Shi Linglong pouted.

…

The Dark Dragon King flew towards the horizon, and countless Lords pursued him. The sound of battle faded away gradually. The area around Su Wan and Shi Linglong’s area returned to peace and quiet.

“I feel lonely after such a great battle.” Shi Linglong complained about the change in their environment.

Shi Linglong and Su Wan bid farewell to each other and returned to their respective territories. Su Wan felt happy and spirited as she walked to her territory.

“Xu Yuan, I know we didn’t really communicate with each other properly until now. I promise you that we will, henceforth, continue to strengthen our communication.”

Su Wan had thought long and hard before she said that. She was wondering how she could gain Xu Yuan’s trust to sign the lovers’ contract.

Su Wan had several reasons for which she wanted to sign the lovers’ contract. She wanted to improve her strength through the contract. Also, she felt a sense of danger. She knew that her lazy hero wasn’t as simple as he looked. He had a powerful auxiliary ability. She constantly worried that someone might take him away.

She was especially wary of Shi Linglong. The others didn’t know about Xu Yuan’s ability, but Shi Linglong had seen it in the Dark Dragon King’s spiritual world.

Shi Linglong had jokingly mentioned once before that she wanted to exchange heroes with Su Wan. Although it had been just a joke, it had always bothered Su Wan.

The God’s Core was another reason for her need to sign the contract. The white-haired woman had obtained the God’s Core, but she had been fatally injured. She had been unable to use it. Before she could find out more about the God’s Core to use it, she had died from her injuries.

The white-haired Lord had hidden the God’s Core on the Forgotten Island and sealed it. Once she had done it, the Lord, whom she had liked, had stabbed her in the back.

She was able to escape to the Forgotten Island because the Dark Dragon King had risked everything to stall the enemy. From that point on, the white-haired Lord had realized that only her hero was trustworthy. Her feelings had turned to love for him.

She couldn’t use the God’s Core, but she had sealed it so that it couldn’t fall in the hands of someone with ill intentions. She had placed the seal in such a manner that only someone who had signed the lovers’ contract could break it to obtain the God’s Core.

Only when the Overlord and the hero swore an oath of love to each other would they be able to obtain the God’s Core!

This was why Su Wan was trying her best to improve her communication and her relationship with Xu Yuan. But no matter how much she tried, she couldn’t utter the words. She felt awkward.

Xu Yuan noticed that Su Wan wanted to say something to him, but she was hesitating. He flew and perched on her hand and knocked on her head with his claw.

“Is there a problem?” he asked.

Su Wan was stunned for a while. Then, she reacted. “Ouch!” she cried out. “It hurts!” She waved her fist and tried to hit him. Xu Yuan didn’t fly away, but he remained just out of her reach.

“Stop!” she shouted. “You disrespectful bastard!”

Su Wan ran toward him and tripped on a branch. She fell hard. “Ouch!”

Su Wan tried to get up, but the pain made her tear up. Xu Yuan grabbed Su Wan.

“What are you trying to do?” asked Su Wan. “Do you intend to carry me and fly away?”

Su Wan was annoyed. The story of the Dark Dragon King and his Lord was so touching. He could sacrifice everything for the one he loved. However, Xu Yuan wasn’t even willing to help her most of the time. Even now, he grabbed her like an eagle catching his prey in an attempt to take her back to her territory.

If other Lords saw her, would she have any dignity left?

Xu Yuan seemed to have realized this too. He grew in size and threw Su Wan on his back and flew back to the territory.

“Eh?” Su Wan laid on his back. She wanted to tell him that she was surprised that a scammer would be this considered. However, she thought that would be suicide, so she kept her mouth shut.

‘What if he tricks me again if I say that?’ Su Wan felt that this moment was comforting.

Su Wan’s cheek was pressed against his back. His warmth made her feel at ease. Her heart raced.

“Xu Yuan,” she said. “When can you turn into human form?”

Su Wan couldn’t tell him about the lovers’ contract, so she asked him about this instead. If he turned into a human, he would be a man. It would be easier to think about the contract then.

Su Wan felt that this hint was obvious enough. However, Xu Yuan didn’t grasp it. “Human?” he said. “This Demon Dragon form is quite comfortable. There is no need for me to turn into a human.”

Su Wan smiled. ‘Good lord! Finally, I have some information!’
