Speaking of which, what even is it?”
I see some irritation on
his face. He squats down and sits on my stomach.
“The ‘Draconic Ember
Essence’ is a reagent I created by placing my flames inside a gem over a long
period of time. When I require, I can call upon all that stored power and use
it. If you do not give it to me, not only will I kill you and take it from your
dead body, but I will kill all those friends of yours that also came with you.
The knight, the sneaky woman, even that other lady that was there.”
“NO!”
Back in a panic, I cannot
let him do that. If Verde and that prince receive this kind of retribution,
then it would be fine. But if Fen dies…
“Then it is simple. Give
it back.”
I have no use for this
item anyway. According to his description of what it is, I can’t use it
regardless. I open my inventory and then remove the strange orb, which seems to
even light up the immediate area with a red hue.
“Much better, I had
suspected this would be more difficult.”
Grael’s expression seems
to relax once getting his item back. He even gets off me and stands up.
“You are very compliant,
aren’t you. I actually may need someone like you in the future to do my
bidding. One can’t let such a person past them.”
Grael leans down and
grasps my forehead with one of his hands, slowly gripping harder and harder
until the pain became almost unbearable.
“Mph, that will do. Now I
will always know where you are.” He speaks like he is proud of whatever he did.
Before I notice it, a
window appears in front of me.

“W-what did you just do!?”
I stammer at the man standing over me, almost speechless.
“What do you mean? I
imparted a fraction of my power into your body which I will mentally be aware
of and always know where you are. Although…” He seemed to frown a bit while
looking at the hand he used.
“It seems as if that power
has fused into you and formed some kind of bond between the two of us. It is a
little unexpected and I don’t think I will be able to reverse it, but it should
not matter. You are but a servant, after all.”
A servant? This guy really
looks down on others.
“Well, I received what I
came to get. I will leave now. But our relationship has just begun. I will call
for you when I need you next, and you will come.”
He gives me a cruel and
ruthless smile before turning around and walking back into the crowd.
I lie there for a while
and watch the sun through the small gaps in the canopy above the city. It
