Technoblade's POV

"So, is everyone ready? I don't want anyone picking fights. That goes especially for you, Shion." I said with a stern voice.

Aside from Shion's bummed expression, everyone responded energetically: "Yessir!"

Today was the day the entourage from Eurazania arrived for negotiations. I was having no chances with someone ruining any good favour. With that in mind, I left the town hall and headed towards the southern entrance with the executives plus Youm.

Shuna had performed a wondrous work with the clothing many of us held at the moment, giving Shion a suit that reminded me of the many presidents whose country I burned to the ground. I myself was using a simple white shirt and brown pants that I've grown used to from my farming days which she recreated perfectly. The black boots and a sack of enchanted potatoes were necessary, of course.

It took about fifteen minutes for them to arrive, which I spent talking to someone who couldn't stop bothering me.

When are you letting me out? The core works.

From the back of my mind, Jean called me. She's been asking to be let out ever since we defeated Charybdis and acquired its core.

I'll do you a favour since I could use your help. Someone tried to mind control Philza and he might be in danger. Make sure he's fine and don't bring attention to yourself. I'd rather not have Guy or some other freak of nature out to get you. I can get you the body of a wither for it.

You want me to inhabit a wither? What do you take me for?'

Her disdain rang out loud for me to hear.

Tell me that you can be stealthy as a dragon. You can at least sneak around as a wither, so long as you don't reveal the true form to anyone.

A short silence followed, ended by Jean's reluctant acceptance.

Ugh, fine. Don't expect me to do anything else though.

Hold back your aura unless you want to inform the entire world of your existence.

Yeah, whatever.

I summoned a wither from within me and let Jean inhabit it. As soon as her soul left my body, an oppressive aura brought both Tempest executives and the entourage, which I noticed had just arrived, to the floor.

Jean's appearance was that of a purple spectral dragon spreading its wings as wide as it could before entering the body of the Wither. She still hadn't retracted her haki, so I reinforced my point.

"Jean, aura control."

As she looked around, she noticed the several magic-born on the ground. Afterwards, she let her aura go back into her makeshift body. The wither transformed into a cloaked skeletal figure with glowing eyes.

Ignoring the mess she made I just told her: "Go do what you've got to do."

She started floating before replying with a cold "Fine."

The entourage, now getting up, started laughing nervously.

"Can't believe we were pickin' a fight with this fella, hahah!" A lycanthrope with white fur and a tiger's tail said.

A fake scowl creeped up on Shion's face. "Are you saying you came here to fight us? Don't think we'll take that lightly!"

The tiger lycanthrope's face was stuck in the middle of smiling because of the fight coming up and gritting her teeth because of my presence.

"Sophia-" A lamia with long hair multicoloured green and yellow, called out.

Before getting interrupted. "I know, Alvis! I know."

Choosing to cease the pressure, I just accept the fight. "Well, go ahead. You guys are pretty well matched in terms of magicule count, Shion and ... Sophia, is it? I'll only stop the fight if it starts getting out of hand."
