Let me smell you!”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“No!”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“Be good! Let me take a look!”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“No! Jie-ge, don’t!”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“Tsk, again with this ‘Jie-ge’… what are you even talking about?”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The angry Hunger Dragon Lady bared her teeth, rolled her eyes at this bizarre creature, and gnashed her teeth in frustration.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>What are you doing?!\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Am I going to eat you?\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>You make me sound like some kind of villain.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Hmph!\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Valentina pouted, annoyed, and sharply turned her head away, once again presenting her tall back to everyone.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>(`へ)\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Valentina was furious—and not the kind you could soothe in a moment.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>But at this moment, Herbert actually grew curious, teasing her one line after another to stir her emotions.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“Angry? Are you really angry?”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“No.”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“Hey, are you crying?”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“No!”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“Then what’s that shine on your lip? Oh, it’s oil! Never mind then…”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“Hmph!”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>After a bit of playful teasing, Herbert didn’t wait for Valentina to urge him—he walked straight to the cage with a grin and tapped the bars lightly.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Clang.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“Here I am.”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>After Valentina turned her head in awareness, he openly opened his arms and smiled: “Of course, if you want it, you’ll have to reach for it yourself.”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>If you want it\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Valentina turned her head, her pouting lips twitching—she wanted to refuse this handout with dignity—but ultimately, curiosity won over pride.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“...Hmph.”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>She let out a soft huff, decided to pretend the awkwardness never happened, and reached out to grab Herbert’s arm—only to have her hand snatched mid-air.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Valentina: ?\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>What’s the meaning of this? Didn’t you say I had to do it myself?\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Why change your mind all of a sudden?!\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“...What are you doing?”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The Hunger Dragon narrowed her eyes, glaring dangerously at the white-haired boy—only to be met with his glare in return.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“Wait, why didn’t you wipe your hands after eating? Don’t move—I’ll wipe them for you.”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Herbert muttered a tired complaint, resigned, and pulled out a damp towel to clean her hands.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Your greasy hands—do you want to bring mold to my skin?\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“Oh…”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Herbert gently wiped her palm, his fingers inevitably brushing against Valentina’s slender digits.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Long, warm, soft fingers—but unmistakably holding terrifying power within.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>He knew these were claws capable of tearing through metal, capable of crushing his skull in one squeeze.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Yet visually, they were undeniably delicate, supple, perfect for a hand model.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Unreal.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Just like her appearance.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>After ignoring her dragon aura, Valentina looked utterly human.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>In human form, she retained none of the monstrous traits like Freime’s—not a single scale, completely human in appearance.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>But she wasn’t flawless.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Her thoughts, her movements—all radiated a strong sense of non-humanity.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>For example, she preferred sleeping curled up on the ground. For example, when eating, she instinctively leaned forward to bite first, then remembered to use her hands.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>And even now, as friends, Valentina still saw Herbert as a weak creature—like an insect. Though, to be fair, he wasn’t far off.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Oh, and her appetite.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Who eats half a roasted pig in one sitting and still isn’t full?\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“The other hand.”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“Oh.”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Though Valentina was surprisingly obedient, showing no aggression beyond words.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Yet these tiny details made Herbert acutely aware: Valentina wasn’t just a slightly clueless prisoner—she was a powerful non-human entity.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>She was dangerous.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Must be handled carefully…\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>As Herbert thought this, he noticed Valentina silently extended her face toward him, cheeks puffed out, urging him.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“Mmm↑ mmm↓, hmm?”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“...Wipe your face too?”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“Mm.”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Looking at Valentina’s greasy lips, Herbert took a deep breath, silently reminding himself.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Herbert, don’t let her appearance fool you.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>She’s a powerful monster, a beast that devours people and spits out bones.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>She’s…\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>In the end, Herbert set aside his thoughts and quietly wiped her hands and face clean, then gave a smug little huff.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Hmph.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>She’s nothing—just a total dumbass!\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>As Valentina sniffed the scent on Herbert’s fingers, he asked curiously: “By the way, are you hungry again? You just ate.”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Valentina awkwardly patted her flat, unswollen belly—clearly not showing signs of having devoured half a pig—and protested:\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“Of course I’m hungry—that little bit was too little to fill me… but that’s not the issue!”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“You’ve always smelled nice, like something I want to bite… but today there’s another scent—familiar somehow…”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“My scent? Because I cut your hair yesterday?” Herbert blinked, guessing where this was going.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>He’d just swallowed her hair—surely that didn’t make him smell like her now?\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“No… it’s… an older scent?”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Valentina wasn’t sure what exactly it was—she sniffed Herbert’s fingers closely, even considered sticking out her tongue to lick them…\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>But before she could act, Herbert pulled his arm back and grinned:\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“If you beg me, you can call me ‘Father’! I don’t mind taking the loss.”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Valentina: ?\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“What did you say?!” Herbert had already stepped back as he withdrew his arm, narrowly avoiding the furious dragon’s claw swipe.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Heh, missed~\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>He tilted his head, smiled, waved at the furious Hunger Dragon, and strolled cheerfully toward the Deep Water Prison.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“Bye-bye, see you later.”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“Hey! Don’t run! Come back—I won’t hit you—”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“Nuh-uh~”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Herbert passed through the barrier; the Hunger Dragon’s roars vanished behind him, silence returning to his ears.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>His expression turned calm; he murmured to himself: “Guess I bought myself some time.”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>After Valentina mentioned the ancient bloodline, Herbert realized it was the lingering effect of his own body enhancement—he immediately changed the subject to prevent her from thinking further.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“Well, even if I hadn’t distracted her, she’d never figure out the truth.”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Come to think of it.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>How could Valentina possibly guess that he’d inherited the Dragon King’s legacy through her hair?\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>That would make no sense at all.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>…\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“Hm? Herbert, come closer—let me look at you…” Freime’s expression was odd as she waved him over.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>?\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Wait, now you too?\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>(End of Chapter)\u003C\u002Fp>",970,"2026-06-20T12:31:06.198Z",1,"Qwen3-Next 80B","0ad22a559d671689191d8de6bf7eb8c009860653db882662f15709703adf030a","an-improper-monster-girl-s-transformation-diary-chapter-31","an-improper-monster-girl-s-transformation-diary-chapter-29",453,"https:\u002F\u002Fnovelzhen.com\u002Fimages\u002Fcovers\u002Fan-improper-monster-girl-s-transformation-diary-cover.jpg"]
