"Max, are you scared?" Leone asked.
"…Gau." Maximus nodded while staring at the white pill in its hand.
"There's no need to be afraid," Leone stated. "You are my familiar. This means that you're bound for greatness."
"Gau?"
"Don't worry. Everything is going to be fine… probably."
"…" Daedalus had no words to say. After all, Leone had always been an optimistic fellow.
Truth be told, there was a risk involved in consuming the white pill. If Maximus was unable to contain the power of the ancient draconic bloodline, which had its potency magnified several times by the Bloodline Awakening Catalyst, the Kobold could implode.
Daedalus worried that sharing this information to Max would make it feel more anxious, but keeping it a secret was not an option either.
The grimoire wanted the Kobold to make the choice after knowing the risks involved so there would be no regrets regardless of its outcome.
