Picking up Girls With My System

Chapter 446 Accepting A Beast, And Thief

Victor wanted to know if his daughter was safe. A beast teaching her? A beast inside their house?

He asked first, not because he was a kind guy, but because Arthur was too mysterious for him. If Arthur was truly a beast, it had to be one way too powerful for someone like him.

Hell, Victor was certain few mages on the entire planet could win against such beast. What was he supposed to do?

Arthur looked at him, and there was no way to lie, not to such a kind person.

"If he hates me, and asks me to leave, I will do it," Arthur thought.

"Victor, I am a beast," Arthur said, making the other party quiet.

Victor had a look of slight fear, but Tracy seemed to be alright. She was not scared of some beast, and even if Arthur was one, so what? He had treated her and the others well, better than some humans who called themselves nice people.

"But I am no ordinary beast, that is. Have you ever heard of dragons?"

"N-No, I haven't. I don't think there are beasts called that here, and seeing how you fell from the sky. It is understandable."

"I can promise you my kind is wise, righteous, and I will do nothing else than help you," Arthur said, bowing his head a little, trying to act more benevolent.

He truly did not want to part ways with that family. They were helping his wives, taking care of them, and it was a good place to hide while he learned more about the world.

No one would look for him in such a small village, at least he hoped so.

Victor was lost in thoughts, and after a few seconds, he sheathed his dagger. "It is not like I can win against you, anyway."

Tracy walked away from Victor's back, and she said, "can you be my familiar? No? Can you show me your true form? Please, please!"

"Sweetie," Victor said, "he cannot be your familiar. He is way too powerful. But I guess he can show us his true form."

Arthur saw nothing wrong with that. "Alright, I can do that, but we must find an open area. There are too many trees around here."

"There is a plain area right in the middle of this valley. We can go there," Victor said.

After that talk, everything returned to normal, and Victor was not acting too suspiciously about Arthur. There was nothing he could do about it if Arthur was evil, so what was the point of worrying that much?

Victor had saved him and those girls, there was no denial about that, so his heart wanted to believe Arthur would do nothing to harm him or his family.

They were already deep inside the valley before that first confrontation, so it only took them twenty minutes to reach the plain area.

Tracy got tired along the way, hoping on her father's back, "so much better," she said, rejoicing after not having to walk anymore.

"This is the place," Victor said.

Arthur looked around, seeing if the space was enough for his actual body, and apparently it was! The plain area was massive, and was there, in the middle of the valley, for no apparent reason.

"Alright. This area is enough. You two won't be scared, right?"

"T-This area is enough?" Victor looked around, seeing the plain area that was bigger than his entire village.

"He can't be a beast the size of a mountain, right?" Victor thought.

Arthur only smiled and then changed from a youth human to a massive black dragon! Everything happened instantly, causing the shock of Victor and Tracy.

They looked at those black-scales, deep eyes, with one having the symbol of a star, and flapping wings that sent trees away with the force. It was majestic, a scary yet beautiful looking beast.

Victor had never seen something like that before, and for him, it was the most extraordinary beast he had ever seen.
