353 Living with the Dragon Race (1/2)
Ronragruk acceded immediately to let Shirk be the first in having the bloodline improvement once Yale told him.
Although Ronragruk knew that Shirk probably wouldn't remain in the tribe, he knew that it would be difficult to find someone so eager to be the first one given the danger that implied.
Moreover, since Shirk was Yale's friend, he already assumed that would also have his bloodline improved at some moment before Yale's group left, and Ronragruk already considered that as an unspoken payment for Yale's help.
The next day, the experiments about improving Shirk's bloodline started, but given the level of difficulty they just worked a bit on it each day as trying to rush was dangerous for Shirk even tough Yale could use Time Healing to avoid major problems in Shirk's body after failing.
The rest of the day both of them still had plans, Ronragruk infused his Laws on the Storage Space and trained the three Dragon Race's Law Masters, but this part was quickly tossed to Yale since his powered-up strength was more suitable for the training.
Yale could only use that for a minute, but if he rested a bit and waited for the Storage Space to stabilize, he could use it several times the same day. However, that time all the battles were in an area hidden by a formation to avoid disrupting others so much every day with the battles.
Ronragruk also wanted to battle against Yale, but he understood that the others needed it while he just wanted to battle.
Of course, if Yale had battled inside the Storage Space, that problem wouldn't have existed as the only limit would have been his body endurance, but Yale knew that the Storage Space might collapse and expel Aiwai if a battle of such level happened there.
If Aiwai weren't there, Yale wouldn't mind if the Storage Space collapsed temporally since the rest of the people had left the Storage Space two days after starting to live with the Dragon Race.
After all, the tribe was a secure place, and since the stay seemed to be quite long, it was alright to let them live outside and see the western continent with their own eyes as long as they didn't go outside the limits of the area controlled by the tribe. Of course, they were warmly welcomed by the members of the Dragon Race because since everyone treated Yale with the same respect that they treat Ronragruk, those coming with him were important guests.
Needless to say, that Yale's battle against Ronragruk was deeply engraved in their minds and they knew that Yale alone was powerful enough to be a threat to the tribe if he were to turn into an enemy.
After all, even though no one believed that he could kill Ronragruk, they could believe that Yale was powerful enough to provoke a disaster for the rest. Everyone was glad of Ronragruk's act of befriending Yale's group from the start, and those who thought that Ronragruk was exaggerating treating them so well, shut their mouths.
Some days after the start of the experiments, the rest of the lizardmen tribe finally joined the Dragon Race, but the situation between them and the members of the Dragon Race was quite bad at the start.
After all, those lizardmen weren't the same as Yale's friends and both parties had antagonized each other in the past, so especially for the lizardmen, it was difficult to accept the situation quickly even though they knew that everything was a misunderstanding provoked by the Lizardman God Cult.
Fortunately, that wasn't something that the time couldn't heal, and after some months, they seemed more or less integrated since there wasn't any discrimination towards them.
The main difference among both species was that usually the lizardmen were excluded from any task that needed going out of the tribe because they couldn't fly, and it was strange that those who were at least at the Grandmaster Rank needed to leave for a task on the outside. Of course, no one took that as discrimination because they were just sending the members who fit more for the task, it wasn't different from sending those who excelled in walking stealthily to scout a dangerous area or those good at fishing to fish.
Yale and Ronragruk were quite pleased with the integration of both tribes, but the same couldn't be told of the rest of the important matters.
It had passed nearly a year when Ronragruk finished infusing the Fire Law into the Storage Space, and he still had to infuse two more, which discourage Yale quite a bit, since it was far slower than he planned to be. Ronragruk tried to spend more time on that the last two months, or else, probably the Fire Law would still be incomplete at the Storage Space.
