"Master, I am Wind Dragon Aeolus, and from this day forth, I shall be your sword in the skies!" Aeolus proudly declared, as though it wasn't spouting bullsh*t such as it would rather die than submit earlier.
Upon recognizing Shye as a worthy master, it submitted completely, partly to avoid the excruciating pain the two greatswords would undoubtedly cause.
The agony was unbearable, after all.
Furthermore, while it was considered taboo for dragons to submit to a creature of another race, Aeolus believed it was wiser to do so than to perish in a battle with no hope of victory.
If its kin wished to mock it for submitting to a human, they were welcome to try defeating its master and see if it was a wise choice.
If they were permitted to submit to a superior dragon, why couldn't they yield to a superior being from another race?
Refusing to submit when humans attacked in groups was one thing, but being bested in one-on-one combat was entirely different.
Aeolus believed it wasn't so shameful to yield to a human under such circumstances, especially after battling that black humanoid in the white world, which it sensed was a future version of its master.
Of course, it was partly a way of coping with its defeat, soothing its once-proud, now-broken heart.
"Wise choice, Aeolus! You won't regret this. I understand it's disgraceful for your kind to submit to humans, but don't worry—I have a plan that will change how your kin view it." Shye replied, a confident smile appearing on the corners of his mouth.
Dragons, on their lonesome, were already majestic and terrifying. Your next chapter is on My Virtual Library Empire
'Heh, I wonder how grandly horrifying a dragon army would be?' He thought inwardly, excited at the idea.
Even he was stunned silly by the true combat strength of his black culmination. It felt like an invincible war god, sending chills down his spine and filling his heart with boundless confidence.
With this power, he could tame anything he desired, no?
'Can I tame mythical creatures, then?'
In the next instant, he found himself safely within the walls of his home, letting out a relieved sigh and a smile spreading across his face.
"Finally... back," Shye muttered with a sigh, lifting his left wrist to gaze at the black bracelet he wore. "Zeth, you can revert to your original form now."
"Yes, master," Zeth replied, turning into a black glow before materializing into a huge black mare with blue flaming hooves.
"Ugh...I meant your human form, sorry." Shye said, scratching his chin rather awkwardly. "By the way, I apologize for not killing the Wind Dragon. I wanted to try taming it. I'll allow you to hunt all you want the next time we're free."
"No worries, master." The duchess assured calmly.
She wasn't in a hurry.
After all, she had been present during every conversation between Shye and the old man, so she had a decent grasp of the situation.
She was set to join a terrorist group that fancied themselves as world saviors.
To her, it seemed delusional and contradictory.
Still, she didn't mind, as being an enemy of an entire world was nothing new to her.
She was in the same position back in her world, anyway.
In fact, Zeth was quite pleased, as praise was something she wasn't accustomed to.
Besides, once their allegiances were finally revealed, her master wouldn't need to take on quests, leaving her with plenty of time to hunt monsters and devour their cores.
She didn't mind the current lack of action.
Both she and her master were young and talented, after all, and they had all the time they needed to train and grow stronger in the near future.
"Thanks for understanding," Shye said with a sincere smile, pausing briefly to show his appreciation before continuing. "Alright then, I believe the guild master and the WAA are searching for the great hero who defeated the Phoenix. Let's go."
