The Dragon Girl would never like the Lord.

"If I remember correctly, your body has been marked with the mark of slavery."

Ron walked slowly into the cell, stood in front of Fria, and began to speak with great interest;

"Despite your anger, you can't bring yourself to lay a hand on me, your master."

The slave mark is a special kind of mark, etched onto their bodies through extremely complex patterns, connecting them to their souls and preventing them from harming their masters.

In the blink of an eye, they can be made to suffer unbearable pain.

"I swore an oath to the Dragon God Lord, 'Boyese Cotton Gutis,' that I would burn all those stained with dragon blood and who insult my comrades to ashes!"

Phyllis raised her dragon claws high, glaring fiercely at the humans before her;

"If you lay a hand on my partner, I will fight you to the death to kill you."

Her eyes were filled with hatred, and her intense emotions transformed into scorching steam that continuously spewed from her scales.

Boyese Cotton Gutis, the legendary dragon god, is a being above all living beings. Once a dragon makes an oath to him, it will generally defend and fulfill it for its entire life.

Behind them, Lucia and O'Ville, who heard these words, had tears welling up in their eyes. They knew how reliable their partner was.

That's why they were willing to follow Philia.

Although they were captured by humans because of Fria's recklessness, which led them into a trap, they harbored no resentment whatsoever.

"The oath did not include myself."

Ron took a half step forward, tucked a strand of her red hair behind his ear, and began to speak with great interest.

"So, you mean I can lay a hand on you?"

Upon hearing the human male's words, Fria froze, feeling a mixture of shame and indignation, her face burning.

“You caterpillar-like human, I’m going to crush your head.”

Phyllis immediately extended her sharp claws, wanting to tear the man in front of her to pieces, but her body was not under her control, and it took all her strength just to raise her hand.

"Caterpillar, what a unique description."

Ron stopped teasing the dragon girl in front of him. If he really pushed her too far, she would awaken her true dragon bloodline, and the slave mark would be useless.

Because the mark of slavery only works on weaker creatures.

"Caterpillar is an insult, it means you're a useless human being~"

Lucia felt that the human male in front of her didn't understand what she meant, so she kindly offered an explanation.

Finally, feeling that something was missing, he added it with a smile;

"Oh right, it also means ugly."

Her eyes were pure and innocent, and the slight upturn of her lips made her seem eager for praise...

"Well done."

O'Ville couldn't help but exclaim in admiration, feeling that her companion sometimes said things that were quite timely.

"And what are you, imprisoned by this caterpillar-human?"

Ron didn't care about such comments, because he had a smooth-talking maid and was used to it.

"Enough with the nonsense, I'll give you two choices."

Ron scanned the dragon girl in front of him and spoke in a deep voice;

"First, I treated him like a toy, and he died a humiliating death."

"Second, let's make a deal. I will create a magic potion to help you come of age. In exchange, you will need to work for me for three years. After three years, you are free to choose whether to stay or leave."

In addition to the twelve types of potions for human professionals, Ron also possesses potion recipes for various alien races, and can concoct potions to help wyverns reach adulthood.

This is the most perfect solution.

Three years is enough time for me to build an army that will not be afraid of the future of Fria.

Upon hearing this, the dragon girls' pupils contracted; what surprised them was not these two conditions.

What's surprising is that this human actually knew that their weakness was due to their impending adulthood.

"Why do you know this?"

Philia frowned and questioned;

"And besides, why should I believe the words of a filthy human like you?"

After saying this, she spoke with a firm gaze;

"I will never submit to humanity, and I will never do anything for you, even if it means death."

Her people and father were killed by humans, and she felt only hatred, making it impossible for her to have any trust.

"Oh?"

Ron felt it was time to make the other party understand their current situation, so he immediately manipulated the slave mark.

"what!"

The intense pain caused Lucia's dragon scales to stand on end, making her writhe on the ground in agony.

"Ugh, it feels so bad~"

O'Ville curled up in pain, gritting her teeth, her expression one of agony.

"Don't lay a hand on them; I, Yilong, will bear all the pain."

Despite the excruciating pain, Fria glared fiercely at the man before her.

Are you more sober now?

Ron withdrew the control effect of the slave mark and spoke calmly:

"So, have you made your choice?"

Chapter 4: Subdue three dragon girls! Obtain the Dragon Race Encyclopedia!

The cell was dull and damp, eerily quiet.

"I...."

Fria gritted her teeth, unwilling to speak, unwilling to bow her head, and unwilling to submit to humans.

Especially her father, whose entire clan died at the hands of humans, she could not possibly do that.

"Here, if I do something for you, will I get some delicious roasted meat?"

Lucia licked her lips, her face full of longing. She was always so greedy, and the first thing that came to mind was barbecue.

O'Ville wanted to say something to her, but she knew she had no other choice. If she didn't back down now, she would probably be beaten with sticks and die in humiliation.

Lucia's words, however, offered a way out.

After a moment's thought, O'Ville spoke:

"This condition is unreasonable. What if you ask us to do something dangerous?"

This was her concern, after all, humans are usually quite cunning.

"There will be plenty of barbecue every day, and the tasks assigned to you will be within our capabilities. If the task is too dangerous, you can refuse."

Now, as long as they agree to work for us for three years, the conditions can be relaxed a bit.

After all, it cost three thousand gold coins to buy, and it would be too wasteful to just use it up in a few swipes.

Moreover, if they were to attack them, Fria might awaken her bloodline in anger at any moment, and she would be burned to a crisp.

"Wow, we get to eat barbecue every day!"

Lucia's mouth was constantly secreting dragon's saliva, as if she would be happy to be turned into a toy as long as she was given food.

When Ron saw her like this, a picture inexplicably popped into his mind.

Lucia hugged the dragon's tail and said softly, "As long as there's roast meat to eat, Lucia will do anything!"

Damn it, I'm a normal person, how can I have such a weird XP?

"You cannot resell us to other humans during these three years."

O'Ville was worried that it would be resold to other humans, so she added a sentence.

"Of course, you are important subordinates, and I assure you I will not do such a thing."

Ron smiled kindly, like a nobleman.

"That's pretty much it."

O'Vell breathed a slight sigh of relief upon hearing this answer, but she was still worried, fearing that this human might be up to some trick.

"Helping you with tasks doesn't include sleeping with you!"

Fria stared at the man in front of her with her crimson vertical pupils, as if trying to see through everything about him.

"Don't worry, I have no interest in subhumans."

Ron wore an indifferent expression.

"Ha~"
