'This..'
Chad stood frozen, unable to move or speak as he beheld the two Dragons fix their gaze upon him.
The thought of entering his Phantasm State didn't even cross his mind, fearing that it might be interpreted as rude, potentially offending the majestic creatures before him.
'Vale! Why in the world did you bring me here?!' Chad inwardly lamented, nearly peeing at the sight of these colossal beings.
On the other hand, though Vale was also taken aback, his surprise was fleeting. He soon adopted an enthusiastic expression as he addressed the Dragons.
"Do you know Aersus the Soul Eater?" Vale inquired, referencing the Water Dragon he had encountered in the Mystic Soul Tower.
He didn't even ask about the Dragons themselves but immediately asked about someone.
Chad couldn't help but take a deep breath.
Nevertheless, the Dragons remained unresponsive to his query. They simply shifted their attention to Vale.
With this, Vale was prompted to continue.
"I know that you can speak since Magnus mentioned it to me. I'm Vale Chambers, and I'm now the new owner of this castle, with Magnus as my slave. In short, I can arrange your freedom or return to your Dragon Realm if you satisfy me…" Vale declared before he decided to show his Dragon's True Sight.
His eyes suddenly glowed with a faint jade light as he tried to see through the dragon's body.
Upon hearing Vale's words and seeing his Dragon-like Spell, the dragons exchanged a meaningful look, seemingly communicating telepathically.
On the other hand, Vale expected their reaction as he smiled, patiently awaiting their response. He was mindful not to rush in such a delicate situation.
"Vale Chambers… Do you have plans of removing these chains?" inquired the dragon with purple scales. It seemed quite similar to Aersus but its wings were slightly shorter than those of the red dragon beside it.
"Of course… It's not like I'll be living in this castle forever. Once this place has served its purpose, you will be able to leave. In any case, you have a very long lifespan, so three or four years shouldn't be a big problem. However, that will only happen if you're cooperative…" Vale assured, his tone was calm and there wasn't a hint of nervousness at all.
"You must keep your word…" asserted the red dragon.
"Of course… Now, can you introduce yourself to us? If you don't, I'll just call you red dragon and purple dragon." Vale proposed, bringing a sense of ease to Chad.
Observing Vale's ability to shift the atmosphere, Chad couldn't help but breathe a sigh of relief. As long as he remained at his classmate's side, there seemed to be nothing to fret about.
After a moment of hesitation, the purple dragon spoke, followed by the red dragon.
"Orden…"
"Ryzoir…"
"Your names do sound majestic, Sir Orden and Sir Ryzior…" Vale responded while withdrawing his ineffective Dragon's True Sight.
It appeared that using a dragon spell on genuine dragons was futile. Nevertheless, it certainly caught the attention of the two dragons.
"I have a request, Sir dragons… I need some of your Draconic Essence to help my friend here. As you can see, he has the Ghost King's Body, and if we use your essence, it will greatly benefit him and awaken his true potential…" Vale implored.
This stunned Chad for a moment as he didn't expect that his friend was planning to help him! Chad's eyes lit up in excitement.
However, the dragon immediately rejected Vale's request.
"Hmph! You can see that we're imprisoned here. Once our Draconic Essence diminishes, our energy will wane, and these chains will sap us dry…" Orden, the purple dragon, retorted.
"If you want us to help you, make it reasonable or just leave… Even if you have the dragon's blood in you, it doesn't mean that we'll cooperate." Ryzoir added.
Vale sighed upon hearing this, but he remained undeterred.
While he could resort to his Extraction System, these two intelligent Dragons hadn't wronged him in any way that warranted forceful extraction while they were already being drained by the formation.
It felt unjust to extract their essence without consent while they were in such dire straits.
"If that's the case, then can you teach us your Spell Models?" Vale requested.
"Spell Models?" the two Dragons appeared puzzled. Teaching humans their Spell Models was them asking for death! Their Spell Models weren't something humans could control in their bodies.
"Yes, we would like to study them. We will not use them directly. However, even if they're not suitable for humans like us, they will still serve as valuable research material. In exchange for that, you can make a request like food or anything else you desire, except for the release of those chains. We will free the two of you once we decide to leave this castle..." Vale proposed with a hint of confident in his tone.
Upon hearing these words, the Dragons couldn't help but laugh.
It seemed absurd to them that humans would take an interest in their Dragon Spells. Nonetheless, they immediately recollected how Vale had used a spell faintly similar to their Draconic Eyes. The resemblance was slight, but it was undeniably present.
"Fine… I will show you two Draconic Spell Models… But I want you to bring me a few Arcane Ores," Orden declared.
"Mhmm… Orden, you want to transform into your human form?" Ryzoir inquired.
"Yes… I'm bored crouching here. I want to start moving around since we will be able to leave here in three years. I thought it would still take 50 more years until that Magnus dies…" Orden responded.
"Well… Then, I want the same thing. I'll show you two Draconic Spell Models.." Ryzoir stated.
Meanwhile, Vale was already grinning.
"Great! Let's do it. Please show them now. I will arrange for the collection of Arcane Ores. It will take a few weeks. Don't worry, I will keep my word so we can continue more transactions at a later date…" Vale assured.
