New law of Beast Taming - Chapter 363
Sakura had made up her mind to sneak into the detention center whether Yoko wanted her to or not. There was no way she was going to stay behind when things were getting so dangerous for Yoko.
But since Sakura did not say and pretended to back down, Yoko was convinced that Sakura had backed down. That was what Sakura thought.
Yoko had an idea of what Sakura was about to do. But she did not want to put any more pressure on Sakura or she was afraid that the younger female would snap.
“If everything has been agreed upon, then I will come and get you tomorrow. You can begin your undercover investigation and give me a report of what is happening.”
Charlie asked and Amane nodded. Charlie was rather sad that she could not investigate this situation together with Yoko. But she was far too famous and well-known to carry out this investigation.
Besides, Charlie had a feeling that the inmates would open up to Yoko much more than they would open up to her.
Once the heavy topics were out of the way, it was time for the trio to have some refreshments and to relax. Amane’s servants presented tea and other beverages in front of them which they enjoyed.
Soon it was time for Charlie to head back and she fixed a time when she would pick Yoko up.
“Yoko, are you sure about this? Do you plan on helping Charlie Suzuki investigate this case? If this gets out, then your reputation will take a deep dive.”
Sakura warned and advised Yoko to be cautious. She would do her best so that the news did not leak out. But even Sakura could not guarantee that she would be fully able to block this news from leaking out.
“Aww, it’s so cute that you are worried about my reputation, Sakura. But I think it will be alright this time. After all, I did not commit a crime and I will also not be going under as myself.”
Besides, this was not the first infiltration mission Amane had participated in. Even with an advanced security update, Amane knew how to manipulate people into seeing what they wanted to see.
And once they see Amane in her false facade, they will not be able to connect her with ‘Yoko Tsurugi.’
“Fine! If you are so confident, then I will believe in you as well. I just hope that you do not get hurt and you do not try to overdo things.”
Sakura sighed tiredly. She could tell that Yoko was being stubborn right now. And there was no way for her to convince Yoko to back out of his mess as well.
“Anyway, it’s quite early in the morning. You should get ready for the long day ahead we are about to have. I will go and check up on Moony.”
Amane had been avoiding going to her quarters for quite some time now. The whole section stunk and the barrier was the only thing that was holding the place together.
The maids bowed to Amane as she passed them and she noticed how flushed and pale the maids looked as well as they went in and out of the familiar corridor.
Only the maids who could not feel or be affected by pheromones had been selected to help Moony out in the current time. But it was evident that even if they could not feel the pheromones, their bodies still reacted to it.
Many of the maids were trying to wiggle around to get comfortable. They were all turned on but they seemed to not know why.
“You all can leave this wing for the remainder of the day. I will call you if I need anything from you.”
Amane ordered the maids and they all looked relieved to hear her words. Slowly, they disappeared from the scene and Amane was left alone in the corridor.
She quickly hurried toward the corridor that led to her room.
It was eerily quiet in there. The deeper Amane walked, the heavier that unsettling feeling twisted her stomach. It was beginning to feel weird in here.
“Moony, do not be startled. I am coming in.”
Amane yelled before she entered the door. By now, Moony must have smelled Amane, but Moony had not replied. She did not want to take any chances with Moony so she chose to speak up before she entered her bedroom.
The first thing Amane noticed when she entered was that the room was empty. Moony was nowhere to be found and Amane headed toward the bed to check.
The young dragon was not on the bed and the intense pheromone secretion made it impossible to tell where the dragon went.
Amane was about to look around more when she felt a pair of arms sneak around her middle and pull her back into a purring chest.
A pair of bright Prussian blue eyes looked back at Amane from an unfamiliar white face. And it was not white like a fair maiden.
No!
This face was properly white and looked as if it had scales covering the skin. Amane reached out to touch the rough face and it shined in the light a little.
Those Prussian blue eyes turned reptilian as well and the lady behind Amane leaned into her touch with an embarrassing shiver.
“Yoko”

The voice was rough and unused. But the pronunciation of Amane’s current name was flawless. Amane was startled to hear a voice come out of the body behind her and that was enough to break the immersion of what was happening.
Just as soon as Moony had spoken, her naked body pushed Amane back and she lost her balance.
The next thing she knew, she had a dragon lying in her lap and the dragon looked up in displeasure at not being able to maintain her human form.
*Hisssss*
Moony hissed as she lost control of her human body. It must have taken her so long to get that body as well, and her lack of control caused her to lose it.
“Don’t be so discouraged Moony. Your maturity period has not passed yet. I am sure that you will soon gain control over your body as well as your powers.”
Amane assured as she rubbed Moony’s head in a consoling way. She did not like to see the moon dragon sulking like this.
Moony grumbled but soon settled down in Amane’s arms. It was comforting and this was likely one of the last times she would be able to do this as well.
“Now that, let me check you out and see if you are injured anywhere or not.”
Amane’s hands roamed around Moony’s body rather carefully. Her hands were soft and firm, treating the small lacerations around Moony’s body and returning Moony’s skin to its previous shine.
Once the moon dragon was taken care of, Amane had to leave as well.
She had already spent too long in the dragon’s territory and Moony was beginning to show signs of metamorphosis once more.
“You should work hard on your human form. A few more days should be all you need. I know that it is taking longer than it usually should but you are also going through this change far sooner than you should.”
Amane reminded Moony as the dragon grumbled and settled down in her arms.
The maids looked calmer when they came back to serve Moony after a few hours. Amane had changed the shift as well as made it more comfortable to be around Moony for now.
Once things had settled down there, Amane decided to visit the shelter as well. She had not gotten a good look at the local beasts she had taken under her wing.
The first thing she noticed was how clean the animal shelter was. And the next thing he noticed was how Eclipse seemed to be commanding the maids to clean up the shelter.
The maids did not look happy with Eclipse but they obeyed him nonetheless.
Amane was about to enter and ask Eclipse what was happening when she noticed Elder Hao’s grandson helping Eclipse out.
Whenever the maids got a little snappy and tried to talk back to Eclipse, Hao’s grandson decided to snap back.
Another thing Amane had noticed was that these maids did not belong to the main house. This was likely the previous staff who had been assigned the shelter-cleaning duty.
“I can see that you all are having fun here. Eclipse, is everything alright?”
Amane chose that moment to enter the conversation. She noticed that the maids looked uncomfortable but they still had a ray of hope in their eyes that Amane would help them out.
“L-Lady Yoko, we-!”
“Yoko, do you know that these maids were not performing their duty right? They had not come in here to clean this place up for a week now. And they have no respect for Eclipse as well.”
“And this stupid idiot refused to use his authority to help himself out. Say something to him, would you?”
Amane was surprised when she was talked to suddenly. As far as she knew, she had never talked to Elder Hao’s grandson. But the elder seemed to not have any problem talking back to her.
He looked like a confident child who was not afraid to voice his opinion when it was needed. And he also did not look like the arrogant young grandchild of a rich family as Crescenta was.
Overall, Amane had to say that she liked this kid. He would make a good friend for Eclipse.
