The dragon’s harem

Chapter 12 Aella Deianira, And The Dragon Is Hungry.



“Did you hear about the recent elvish attack?” The manager asked with a straight face.

Arad nodded, “I heard about it, that’s all.”

The manager looked at the woman, “This woman is why they lost. She appeared out of nowhere and blasted their arrows with her wind magic.”

“I told you, I’m not a part of their army. I was teleported there by mistake. That wind wasn’t even mine.” Aella yelled.

“And as you see, she refuses to admit it. Even the elvish army has refused to ransom her or admit that she is a part of their troops.” He sighed, “Such a failure of an elf. It will be embarrassing to call her one of their own.”

[That’s strange since both sides refuse to admit a connection.]

“What if she is right?” Arad asked.

“Everyone refuses to believe her. Why would an elf show up out of nowhere and sabotage their army?” The manager sighed again, “Elves are haughty. They will refuse to admit such things.”

“Hold up, doesn’t this mean we’re at war with the elves?” Arad realized.

“Not exactly, just some troubles between human nobles and elvish nobles. Nothing as important as war.”

After thinking about it for a bit, Arad nodded, “I will take her,”

Aella’s face brightened for a moment, “I see you two agree. Let’s get up to finish the paperwork.”

The managed opened the cell and allowed Aella out, “Don’t you need guards to keep her in check?”

Arad looked around. Till now, he only saw the manager and no one else.

“Look there.” The manager pointed toward the end of the hallway. A light glimmered behind a half-opened door.

“The whole place is monitored with magic. The guard will be here in no time, and the whole place will get locked up.” He said with a proud smile.

Arad used his void eyes to look around and saw the whole place covered in magic.

“Sir Arad, are your eyes alright?” The manager asked as he saw the purple glimmer in Arad’s eyes. “That is a strange form of magic,” Aella added up.

“Ah! No, I’m a sorcerer and can see magic to a small degree. I just looked around to see the detection magic.” Arad scrambled to patch an excuse. He didn’t know that his eyes glow when using [Void Eyes]

“I see,” The manager said while thinking, “Let’s get the paper done. It won’t take long.”

The slave contract is a magical binding between two creatures. One is the master, and the other is the slave. And as expected, it has rules.

This association is the one that writes the contract, and it makes sure it includes a few things. Even the slave has a saying in what his rights and obligations are.

*****

Slave rights:

The right to protect honor:

The slave has the right to refuse sexual relationships in any shape or form.

Life protection:

The slave’s life and physical health are protected.

Slave obligation:

Obey all of the masters’ orders unless they harm her rights.

Master rights:

Life protection:

The slave can’t harm her master in any shape or form.

Secrecy right:

The slave won’t disclose the master’s information to anyone.

Helpful guidance: The slave will help the master even if he didn’t ask.

Master obligation:

The master is responsible for providing food, clothes, and shelter for the slave.

*****

The contract writer with be informed of any breach.

Arad read the contract a few times, as did Aella. The detail in it was incredible as they described multiple scenes.

“Break it, and the guards will fall on you in seconds.” The manager said with a smile.

The two accepted the contract, and it got signed immediately.

“Aella, here is your stuff.” The manager handed her a small bag with a long bow, “This is everything that got confiscated from you.”

Aella rushed to the changing room to wear her leather armor. Arad stared at her with a smile.

^Finally, we have a party member.^

[Won’t she start from F-rank?]

^I don’t want to level her up. I hope Nina can do something about it.^

“Arad, I’m ready!” Aella walked out with a smile. “What should we do now?”

Arad scratched his chin, “Can I test the contract here for a bit?”

“Go for it,” Aella looked confident in herself.

“You can try it. You don’t have to worry about breaching the contract.” The manager confirmed.

[Let’s test the limits]

Arad stared at Aella, “Call me Master.”

“Of course, I can call you master. That doesn’t even need the contract.” Aella approached Arad with a smile, “Master Arad.”

Arad nodded, “Call me just Arad. It’s weird to be called master.” He sighed. It was more embarrassing than he thought.

Arad then started testing the limits.

“Walk on all four.”

Aella did it.

“Dance for me.”

Aella did it. It didn’t matter if Arad asked her to shake her hips harder; The contract never activated since it was under dancing.

“Sing for me,”

“Sorry, I’m a bad singer.” It seems that she can consciously refuse an order.

It was Arad’s turn, “Master, shut up!” Aella said, and the contract was activated.

“This is a warning activation,” The manager said, “We would have put you under surveillance for it.”

[Arad, there is something we might be able to use.] 𝘣𝘦𝑑𝘯𝘰𝘷𝑒𝘭.𝑛𝘦𝘵

Mom seems to have figured something out.

^What is it?^

[The contract work using what you consider normal, we can break that easily by getting me involved.]

Aella approached Arad and tried hitting him.

TAP! She gently punched Arad’s stomach, and the contract didn’t activate.

The contract activates when Arad loses health, nothing less.

After making sure the contract works and that everything is fine. Arad and Aella walked out.

As they walked across the busy streets, Aella stared at Arad, “What do we do now? Are we going to the guild?”

Arad looked around and then at her flowing golden hair and gleaming green eyes, “We should register you first. I need you to get to E-rank as fast as possible.”

Aella puffed her big chest with a smile, “I’m already a level 12 fighter, an Arcane-archer.” She stared at Arad, “I bet you will be shocked seeing me fight!”

“Nice to meet you. I’m a level one Sorcerer, a red draconic bloodline.” Arad replied, and Aella blinked twice.

“Just level one?”

“Suprised?”

“Not really. You bought me to protect you, right?” She said with a smug smile.

“I needed someone trustful. Will go to the guild and get some quests.” Arad said but almost immediately got a weird feeling.

GRWAAAAA! His stomach rumbled loudly. ^I haven’t eaten anything since I was born.^

“Are you hungry? We can stop to eat if you didn’t eat lunch yet.” Aella said with a smile.

[Arad, this is bad! Your draconic body is hungry.]

^I can eat a meal at a nearby inn, and I’m fine. Why are you worried?^ Arad replied.

[Dragons eat more than humans can. I suggest you go to the forest to hunt for food.]

Arad sighed, “Are you alright?” Aella asked him immediately.

“Just want to eat something,” He replied.

^Say, Mom. “what’s the best food for dragons?^

Mom hesitated, [The second best food is raw monster flesh, a lot of it.]

^I asked about the first. I want to get the best for the first time if possible.^

[You won’t like hearing it.]

^Say it. With details.”

[Raw humanoid flesh, preferably intelligent creatures. Young before the old, women before men, humans before elves, and other races.] Mom sighed, [Void dragons are similar to red dragons. Their best food is young maidens. That is why you hear of maidens sacrificed to them.]
