Chapter 105 - Chapter 100: Blame You

With Attilicia becoming a variable, and David having accidentally revealed some secrets after being profoundly shocked, it didn't hinder his ability to harvest leeks. However, if he continued to delay, the Drow matrons—skilled in gathering intelligence—might confirm that the Silver Dragon in the Duke of Silver's territory some time ago was indeed "transformed" by him. After all, his fame as Saphistouin, the "Silver Dragon Alchemy Genius," seemed to have caused quite a stir in the vicinity of the Duke of Silver's territory at the time. By then, with Attilicia, his unwanted father, as a burden, it wouldn't be so easy to manage the Drow leek field he had painstakingly cultivated and brought under control. At least the Drow wouldn't be as obliging as they were now. They had directly offered Attilicia as an add-on to the compensation, merely begging that David's leek-reaping scythe would swing a bit more gently—to at least lessen their pain as they were being bled.
