"It is reasonable to put conditions. Speak."

Ronragruk had never expected that Yale could agree without asking for something, and after seeing Yale’s battle prowess, he was even more confident that Yale would ask for something in exchange.

"First, you must tell everything about this plan to the Dragon Race and the lizardmen tribe. Everyone must know about it to avoid misunderstandings."

The last thing Yale wanted was that another misunderstanding was created between both tribes due to acting stealthily. After all, both had misunderstandings in the past, and although the most powerful members of the Lizardman God Cult died, it was difficult to ensure that there wasn’t anyone who would do something similar after hearing that Ronragruk was transforming lizardmen into members of the Dragon Race.

Moreover, there were high chances of members of the same family battling against each other if one of them transformed and the others not, and Yale wanted to avoid that problem.

"Second, the transformation of the bloodline will be completely voluntary. Neither you nor anyone else can force others to have the evolution of their bloodlines even if the change of the bloodline is for their own sake."

Yale wasn’t against of investigating bloodlines and improving them, but that was always with the consent of the experimented party, he would refuse to collaborate to do something like that if the others didn’t want to do it.

He knew what happened in the eastern continent and gave birth to half-beasts, and those experiments without caring about those being experimented were something that Yale hoped that never happened again.

"Third, all the members of the lizardman tribe should be allowed to join the Dragon Race with or without transformation of the bloodline."

Ronragruk frowned a bit hearing that point, but he didn’t interrupt Yale.

"Fourth, there mustn’t be any discrimination for those who hadn’t improved their bloodline. All of them should be treated equally."

Yale knew that if the lizardmen couldn’t join the Dragon Race tribe or had fewer rights than the others, they would ask for the improvement in the bloodline even if they weren’t willing, and for Yale, that was the same as forcing them.

"Fifth and last, I will be the one in charge of the improvement of bloodlines, and you will help me with anything I ask you for that purpose. However, I can’t stay here indefinitely. After we standardized a transformation process, I will leave, and you must continue following the previous rules even after that moment."

That last part seemed logical for Ronragruk at the start since Yale seemed used to modify bloodlines, but the part of making him continue following the same rules after Yale had left was a bit more difficult to endure.

After all, his intention was originally forcing all the lizardmen to improve their bloodlines, and in case someone refused, forbid that lizardman from joining the tribe. At most he thought of letting them join, but with fewer rights to force them to ask for the improvement of the bloodline.

Yale’s conditions were completely against his intentions like if he had seen through him, and in fact, that was the truth because Yale obtained some information about him in their previous battle.

"Aren’t those conditions a bit too harsh?"

If Ronragruk wanted to improve the bloodlines of the lizardmen by relying on his own power, no one could put conditions to him, but since he asked Yale for collaboration, and Yale would create the method for improving the bloodlines, he couldn’t just ignore Yale’s conditions.

"Those are basic things if you want me to collaborate. I won’t let a tragedy like the one happened in the eastern continent to happen again. If you don’t want to agree I will just leave and you can do it as you want, but not on my sight."

Yale’s voice was so cold at that Ronragruk felt that it wouldn’t be strange if the floor started to freeze.

"The improvement is for helping them, how can that become a tragedy."

Ronragruk said those words without thinking too much, but he noticed the displeasure in Yale’s gaze.

"The ones who did it in the eastern continent thought the same, and you should know how they ended for their acts. Even today there is a lot of people suffering from those experiments. It doesn’t matter how good are your intentions, forcing others into that kind of experiments is something that you must never do."

If Yale didn’t know about the experiments, it didn’t matter what Ronragruk did to the lizardmen because Yale wasn’t any kind of hero of justice, but he didn’t want to collaborate into that kind of plots nor let them happen in front of him.

"I don’t know exactly what happened there, but was that really something to make you react like this?"

Although Ronragruk wasn’t a bad guy, he suffered from something that happened to most people who lived overly long lives, so he didn’t hold any regard for the wellbeing of ordinary people unrelated to him to the point that he didn’t mind killing them in the experiments if something went wrong.

Without Yale’s help, he planned to do a try and error until managing to do it, and it was easy to see how many lives would have been lost with that.

"I told you of my friend who I turned into a lizardman, right? Why do you think he had a trashy bloodline that blocked him even to reach the Apprentice Rank? Even the fact that he reached the Novice Rank with that bloodline was already a miracle created by his hard work. From where do you think such a trashy bloodline appeared? He is descendant of those who suffered those experiments, and the suffering had remained for more than thirty thousand years across the generations. Do you think that it something to disregard?"

Yale had met a lot of half-beasts in the past, and most of them weren’t as lucky as Aiwai and had a great bloodline. There were a lot of small towns with half-beasts that considered a feat being at the Novice Rank and some that already seemed more beast than humans, with their intellect fading with the pass of the time.

"I am sorry for what happened to the ancestors of your friend, I can understand your reasons, but aren’t most of those lizardmen just trash? If they can become members of the Dragon Race, they would have better lives, and the only reason I protected them was with that in mind. I truly have no reasons to care about their well-being if they didn’t serve to that purpose."

Ronragruk just wanted to improve the numbers of the Dragon Race, and he didn’t want to accept those who refuse to improve their bloodlines. One thing was accepting them at the start because there was no way of improving all the bloodlines at the same time but letting them live as lizardmen among the members of the Dragon Race with the same rights was something difficult for Ronragruk to agree.

"I am also not someone who helps people without relation with me, but I don’t go killing them without reason nor using them as objects for my ambitions either. Moreover, doesn’t your Dragon Race have a birth rate that is even lower than that of the lizardmen, which is already pretty low? Having lizardmen in your tribe could serve to increase the numbers more quickly and even without any disadvantage at the tribe for the lizardmen, it wouldn’t be difficult for most of them asking for the improvement."

The Dragon Race had wings and could fly naturally, which was something extremely attractive to lizardmen and even for humans. Moreover, since they also had a greater talent than lizardmen, it wouldn’t be difficult for most of the younger lizardmen to want to improve their bloodlines.

Those older might have some feeling for being lizardmen and reject the improvement, but if the lizardmen grew with members of the Dragon Race, it wasn’t difficult for them to see which the best for them was.

However, that would be because of the difference of innate gifts between both species and not because of any privilege inside the tribe, which was what Yale wanted to avoid.

"That is also true..."

Ronragruk hadn’t even considered the matter from that perspective, but his mission was just to protect the Dragon Race, he didn’t feel any obligation of helping lizardmen who didn’t want to become members of the Dragon Race.

"I know why you are worried right now. I saw fragments of your past in our previous battle, and it is quite obvious why are you so stubborn about all the lizardmen turning members of the Dragon Race."

Ronragruk didn’t expect those words, but remembering that sensation he had while battling, he could believe that Yale did something like that.

"Agree to my conditions. Then, I will tell you something that will help you to become a Law God. However, without listening to my advice, I can ensure that you will never become a Law God in your life."

Yale had really a way to help Ronragruk thanks to the information he had obtained before. Ronragruk’s soul was weak because he relied too much on his bloodline, but there was an additional reason.
