14 Absolute Contract of the Dragon Race and Freya, Who Has Started to Unveil Her Claws

"Alright, please tell me..."

Roel composed himself, preparing to listen attentively.

On the other hand, Freya didn't immediately respond to his question.

Instead, she casually took a seat at the end of the bed.

"Before I address your question, I have something to ask you first. Are you familiar with contract magic?" Freya smiled and inquired nonchalantly.

"Contract magic? Of course, I'm familiar with it." Roel took a moment to gather himself, then nodded affirmatively.

As the name implies, contract magic is a form of magic designed to bind two distinct individuals through what is known as a contractual bond.

The application of contract magic can serve various purposes, ranging from enslaving others and forming agreements to compelling individuals to keep secrets.

However, due to the potential for both beneficial and harmful applications, the use of contract magic is restricted, and not all mages are permitted to wield this form of magic.

Freya smiled, giving a slight nod before starting into the explanation.

"The method to cure the poison within your body is connected to contract magic. However, the type of contract magic I'm talking about isn't the same as the one typically used by humans. It's a special form of magic unique to our dragon race, known as absolute contract magic." Her revelation left Roel instantly astonished.

As a student who often spent time reading books in the library, he was not unfamiliar with this absolute contract magic.

Absolute contract magic was a highly unique and special form of contract magic, exclusive to the dragon race.

As a race known for its strength and a history that predates the human race, the dragon race possesses numerous unique magics, most of which are exclusive to their kind.

One such magic is absolute contract magic, typically employed by the dragon race with their partners or individuals they trust.

It is said that when a dragon uses absolute contract magic on their partner, the two become interconnected for the entirety of their lives.

Naturally, such a contract necessitates mutual trust, as it binds their lives together to the extent that if one of them perishes, the other will meet the same fate.

Regrettably, information regarding this contract magic was scarce, and records at the Saint Heines Magic Academy were sparse, as the dragon race had effectively concealed details about this unique form of magic.

However, he furrowed his brow immediately, finding it difficult to believe Freya's claim that the poison of the king of hell could be cured by absolute contract magic.

"Absolute contract magic? What exactly is that? Can you provide a detailed explanation? I'm afraid I don't quite grasp the concept." He forced a somewhat awkward smile, feigning ignorance about her explanation.

Given his fabricated status as a minor baron's son, it was only natural that he would feign ignorance regarding high-level magic, particularly the rare and complex absolute contract magic.

Unfortunately, despite Roel's adept attempt to conceal his feigned ignorance, it didn't escape Freya's notice.

A playful smile graced her lips, revealing that she saw through his act.

"Absolute contract magic is a distinctive magic that establishes a profound connection between two individuals. Typically, our dragon race employs this magic on identified couples, allowing the bound pair to sense each other's location, share power, and perform various other useful functions." Freya toyed with her white hair, and even after her thorough explanation, there was no discernible change in her expression.

However, unlike Roel, who heard this, his initially serious facial expression transformed instantly into astonishment, and he felt a twitch at the corner of his mouth.

"This... Is what you said true?" Roel couldn't shake the feeling that he had been deceived.

Becoming a couple? Did that imply he would be in a romantic relationship with this woman from the dragon race?

Throughout his entire life, the notion of having a partner from the dragon race had never crossed his mind.

Of course, it wasn't as if he had never entertained the thought of riding a dragon—cough!

After all, as a cultured man from the modern world, he harbored dreams of riding a dragon that only existed in the fantasy world.

However, the current topic of discussion revolves around the fact that this woman, Freya Neiva, is the Black Dragon Lord known as Calamity!

A dragon that single-handedly annihilated the demon general and hundreds of thousands of his troops with her own power!

Who would dare to mount a fierce dragon woman like this?

Don't be misled by his current apparent relaxation of the guard; it's a consequence of his current state—paralyzed and defenseless.

Moreover, this woman, who saved him and harbored no hostile intentions, made him feel at ease.

Had it been him before he was poisoned and fell into this state, he would have regretfully pressed the log-out button and run as far as he could upon encountering this legendary dragon!

Upon hearing Roel's uneasy tone and discerning the anxiety underlying it, the excitement in Freya's heart, which she had been suppressing all this time, could no longer be contained.

"Of course... Would I lie to you? Just imagine: with our contract, I can establish a direct connection with you, enabling the transfer of my dragon essence into your body. The dragon essence within me has the power to neutralize any poison in the world." Freya licked her lips, and her crimson eyes stared at Roel with a concealed obsessiveness that he failed to notice.

"Gulp~ Are you... certain this will work?" Roel swallowed nervously, sensing a shift in Freya's demeanor that now appeared more animated than before.

Moreover, under her scrutinizing gaze, he felt as though he was laid bare, with nothing left to conceal.

"It will work! Trust me. Honestly, I could have used my dragon essence to eliminate the poison inside your body. Yet, doing so might have risked harming your fragile human body since dragon essence isn't suitable for your human race. However, with the absolute contract magic connection, that won't be a problem anymore." Her explanation, which made logical sense, left Roel speechless.

He finally grasped how it worked, but a nagging feeling of being taken advantage of lingered.

Shouldn't his fabricated status as a minor baron be inadequate grounds for this woman to go to such lengths?

Roel wrestled with indecision but swiftly cleared his mind.

Lifting his head, he locked eyes with Freya, who was also gazing at him.

"Alright, what are your terms for this exchange?" He inquired quietly and composedly.

The smile on Freya's lips suddenly bloomed, as if she had anticipated this question.

"My conditions are, of course, not extensive, as they are inherently part of your healing method," she replied indifferently with a smile.

This left Roel bewildered, not quite grasping what she meant.

"Ha? What do you mean—" Before Roel could finish his sentence, he suddenly widened his eyes, as if understanding Freya's meaning.

Swiftly, he looked at Freya's figure, which had already extended her right hand and held his chin tightly.

"Hehehe~ You guessed it right. I want you to be my partner and husband."
