298  Laura knows stuff?

White Dragon Labyrinth Exploration Arc.

---

(POV: Lumiere)

By this time, Laura had already brought down the anti-magic barrier.

If things got bad, I was sure Stellaria would be able to detect where Ravenna and I were.

Like every other Imperial Dragon, she was conceited.

There was a likelihood we could fight now, and she gave me full access to my abilities.

My mana points were at its max, so I had a fighting chance.

I already tried using [Appraisal] on her, but it wasn't working, which was likely because of her [Arcane Soul Sealing] of a thing.

The status system registered what ever the soul fed it. So if her powers were sealed to the point it felt like she had none, then that was what the status system would register.

Of course, this was only a theory...

Finally, Laura confessed her intentions.

"Look, I don't really care much about the Imperial Black Dragon."

"Her name is Serena," I told her.

Laura shrugged. "Sure, Serena." She resumed her initial statement. "Like I said, I don't really care about this Serena girl," a proud grin tugged at her lips.

I furrowed my brow, puzzled by her words.

"Then what's the use of capturing her?" I asked.

Laura's voice took on a dreamy tone as she replied, with words leaning on affection. "I'm doing it for my lovely senior brother, Klaus," she confessed, a fondness evident in her voice.

She paused for a moment, rubbing her hands across her petite frame before resting them on her flat chest.

"Maybe if I do something good for him, it's possible he'll touch me... roughly," she hinted. "Like the way he touches Cenis," she added with a soft moan, her cheeks turning a slight shade of red.

Her face was painted with lust.

"Eh?" I exclaimed.

It was all so abrupt.

One moment we were talking about Serena and I was gearing myself up to fight, and the next... this.

Laura continued, heavy longing pulled against her words.

"I haven't taken my adult form in ages," she murmured, her gaze distant. "But I'll forget about that the moment Klaus invites me into his bed, strips me down till I'm naked and vulnerable," she confessed, her voice growing huskier.

I recoiled in shock, uncertain of how to respond.

"Excuse me?" I stammered.

My mind struggled to process her explicit words.

Laura's hands fluttered to her flushed cheeks, her eyes filled with desire.

"And then, after he's driven his manhood into me, and blood comes out," she whispered, her eyes gently closing, "it'll be so special to see his hair and my proof of virginity share the same color."

I stared at her in disbelief, my jaw dropping at her audacity.

Ravenna, who had been listening silently, exchanged a bewildered glance with me.

Interrupting the awkward silence, Aaron cleared her throat, drawing our attention.

"Uh, Lady Laura, you're going a little off-topic again," she interjected.

A little?! You call that a little?!

Laura sat up straight, instantly switching to a business-like demeanor.

"Thank you, Aaron," she acknowledged.

Aaron nodded, her head bowed respectfully. "It is my duty," she replied earnestly, still standing beside her.

"So," Laura smiled at me. "Can you see now, my reasons for doing all this?" she calmly asked me.

"Yeah... A little too, clearly..."

What did you expect me to say to her?

That thoughts like that were disgusting...? I personally had no right to say that.

And proudly so too, I mean, I really "like" Genny, I just haven't had the time to meet up with her and apologize to her for what I did after Arthur and I had a scuffle. Still, I'm sure she's not taking any offense. When it comes to me, she's more forgiving.

That aside... At least I was doing it with my step-sister.

Laura took it a step higher by going for a direct sibling.

Now, I'm not saying that's a bad thing... Game is game.

Laura blushed, her cheeks turning a deep shade of red.

She nervously tucked a strand of her hair behind her ear and closed her eyes, feigning vulnerability.

"Yes," she whispered softly, "it's scandalous, I know. But I couldn't help myself. Female dragons are naturally attracted to men with strength, and I believe my brother takes that title."

Meh, I'm pretty sure All-Father could take him.

Maybe even Stellaria, if she could get serious for once in her life...

I cleared my throat, trying to wrap my head around her reasoning.

"I can understand most of your motivations," I said cautiously. "But there's still something that doesn't quite add up."

She looked at me, wide-eyed, awaiting my question. "What is it?" she asked, genuinely curious.

I hesitated for a moment before speaking. I didn't hesitate because of anything else, other than the fact that Laura's words kept playing over and over again in my head.

Why were thousand year old virgins the horniest...

"How'd you know I'd come here?" I voiced my perplexity. "It only makes sense that you were expecting me."

If she said he waited for me all these years, I'd honestly feel bad for her.

Laura smiled in a feisty manner as she leaned back in her chair.

"Oh, it was easy," she replied, a twinkle in her eyes. "I simply asked Cenis for a little favor. She used her powers to check my future, and there you were."

"What?" I said.

Ravenna on the other hand didn't seem too shocked. Then again, she's lived for several centuries, something like that wouldn't be a big deal to her.

Still, I couldn't believe what I was hearing. "Dragons can really do that?"

I exclaimed, rising up from my seat involuntarily.

Sure, I knew an actual "God" but occasionally you'd come across some god-like races that surprised you now and then...

Laura rolled her eyes, as if my disbelief amused her. "Of course they can," she stated matter-of-factly. "Some dragon bloodlines are born with the ability, while others possess instruments that can do it."

I took a moment to process this newfound information. "So, this Cenis," I asked, seeking clarification, "she has the innate skill?"

A slow nod accompanied Laura's response.

Then, Ravenna started whistling but she failed to produce the sounds, all that came out was short 09:22

spurts of saliva drops.

"Indeed she does," she confirmed, there was slight envy in her eyes.

She folded her arms and pouted, her cheeks puffing out like pasty buns.

"That's why Klaus favors her so much."

The another question came into mind.

"Then uh, couldn't you have won this battle if she just checked everything about my future or yours?"

Sure, there was no use telling her that...

But Laura didn't look "stupid" enough that she wouldn't do that. So it was more me, indirectly asking her why she didn't just do that instead.

Given the situation, it's the best advantage to utilize.

Laura looked at me with amusement. "If only it were that easy," she replied coyly. "If Cenis could simply predict to me, the demise of every Curse King and how it happens, I'd be the happiest dragon alive... However, there's just somethings she can't tell me..."

"Really..."

"Indeed, but I don't clairvoyance to predict when you die..." Laura smiled at Ravenna.

"Uh, thank you...?"

Ravenna took that message surprisingly well.

Laura then pointed back at me.

"You're on Cenisʼ top list of people that she shouldn't tell their futures or give even hints about..."

"Me?" I said.

Laura yawned and then said, "It's something about your true nature or whatever that is..."

I leaned forward. "Can you, tell me more...?"

"Will you give me the Imperial Black Dragon?"

"No." I flat-out told her.

She pouted a bit. "You're no fun..."

Ravenna then mumbled to herself. "I keep saying the same thing..."

"Hey!" I looked at her, "I can hear you, yunno."

Then, Ravenna started whistling but she failed to produce the sounds, all that came out was short spurts of saliva drops.

"Hmm, this reminds me of that one time Cenis talked about you and said something about what you really are..."

I leaned forward a bit. I didn't say a word, if I did, she might just remember she wasn't supposed to tell me.

This was perfect.

"I've forgotten what she said, something about Blutonia... No, was it Lud... No, maybe Glutto..."

Gluttonia.

The only word I could remember my mother said...
