Reborn: I'm A Dragon Girl With An OP System-Novel

“Ahem… Anyway, do you have any more topics you wish to talk about?” King Gravos asked.

“I do, but may I stick a barrier up beforehand? Although the person who was listening in is now gone, I still wish to ask you about a few things. That should not be heard by others.” I wanted to talk to him about the Prime Minister. The things that happened before diving deep into the dungeon were not something that could easily be instigated without pressure from the outside.

“You can.” King Gravos replied while waving his hand. Five people in black suddenly appeared in a puff of smoke. “All of you wait outside.”

“But your Majesty….” One of the shadow guards seemed reluctant to let him be alone with me and Adel._.

“Are you not going to listen to my order? Adel is also here, so why are you worried about such nonsense? Faith is like my daughter as well. While she is naughty, she would never truly hurt me. Plus, if she wanted to, she could easily take over this kingdom. You all are underestimating this little girl.” King Gravos’s words made me purse my lips. I did have a lot of power, but to be honest, at this moment and time, I do not have any wish to rule some country. I just want to be me and do what I had planned from the start.

Politics are not my cup of tea, nor do I wish to get involved in what goes on in politics as well. While I know I am currently being dragged into it, I still do not wish for any of it either. But Adel, Lance, and even the silly King in front of me have become important people in my life. Not to mention this kingdom that has so many good people in it. I can not and will not allow this place to disappear.

“I understand, Your Majesty….” I could swear the shadow guard glared at me from under his mask. I do not understand why he is so hostile toward me. It makes me wonder. Is he truly loyal to the king?

Once the shadow guards left, I put up a three layered isolation barrier. It would even block detection from entering the room. “There….” I said while letting out a sigh.

“Was it wise?” King Gravos asked while looking at me. Adel was currently rewinding his clothes, so they were back to normal now.

“The information we gave should keep them busy for a while. The system stones and ability stones are not easy to come by. After all, they didn’t drop until after the second boss, as for the plans with the trail. It works out better for us if they do cause more of a ruckus. I actually hope they do because it will only shine more light on the nobles who are not on the royal family’s side. I hate to say it. But, this kingdom has become split between two factions.” It was easy to see. It seemed that two sides were forming, and the more time that passed, the more the sides would split and eventually…

“A civil war will come if things continue as they are. I understand this.” King Gravos said as if reading my mind. “My problem is that if I make a move against any of them, it will cause a stir, and it might set things in motion before we can even do anything about it. The people of the kingdom are innocent and should not be pulled into a war within the government. I have been working on trying to stop all of this, but it is not an easy task. It was thanks to you that I investigated deeper into things, and I now know the Prime Minister is the head of this faction. And because of your help, some of his plans have been ruined. But it is hard to keep track of his movements… He has his own guards that follow him everywhere, so my people can not get close to him.”

“I may have a solution to this.” After thinking for a moment. I couldn’t help but wonder if many Diablo would have some kind of low level demons who could hide in the shadows to keep watch over him.

“Oh? Let’s hear it. Anything that can give me solid evidence will allow me to finally make a move.” King Gravos was looking at me like I was some kind of ray of hope for him. But sadly, it was all up to if Diablo was able to do what I was thinking.

“Diablo,” I called out, and not even a second later, a puff of black smoke appeared behind me. A great pressure also fell over the hall. “Release your pressure. There are no enemies here.”

“Yes, Master.” The pressure suddenly lifted. I looked up at King Gravos, who was staring at Diablo with a hint of fear in his eyes.

“This is Diablo. He is a summoned demon and also someone who has made a vow to follow me. Diablo, this is the King Gravos of the Gravos Kingdom. Someone who has taken very good care of me as if I was his own daughter.”  I introduced the two.

Diablo smiled and bowed toward King Gravos. “It is a pleasure to meet the human king of the homeland of my master. I am glad to hear you treat her kindly.” Oi! Diablo, did you just sneak in some kind of threat in there? Or am I just reading between the lines a little too much?

“It’s a pleasure. A summoned demon, huh?” King Gravos’s expression was a tad tense. I think he was still nervous.

“Yes, it was one of the skills I got from the dungeon. Anyway, to get on topic as to why I called you here, Diablo. Do you have the ability to send some kind of demon that is able to hide in the shadows to watch and report back what they see and hear about a certain individual?” I looked up at him with expectant eyes. I could only hope that he would.

“I can send a few shadow demons to watch over him. Can you give me an image of the person and his current location?” Diablo asked as he waved his hand. Three summon circles formed and from them, three shadowy figures suddenly appeared.
