The dragon's harem

Arad started looking toward the city, "How much are the toads' souls worth?"

[Not much, just a little over a month.]

[I added a tracker to your age. You will reach the [Very young] stage at 17 years.]

^I have an extra stat point. Do I get it when I level up?^

[No, you get one each of two levels, but you will get a massive boost if you increase your age stage.]

Arad smiled, stretching his arm and hurting his shoulder. "I should get back to the city. Aella must be worried."

He turned around but then felt that something was off. ^Mom, do you feel this?^

[I don't have your senses. Describe what you feel.]

^Someone is watching us.^

As Arad said that, the ground rumbled, and the bushes before him trampled. From between the trees, a gigantic lizard green with wings and claws glared at him.

[Don't move. It's ancient.]

The creature standing before them was a green dragon. "I heard a wyrmling scream. And came to check it." The dragon growled, "But look what I found, a void kid."

"What do you want? How did you get here?" Arad asked, his voice shaking. This dragon isn't an opponent he could hope to scratch.

"I will answer your second question first. I flew here." The dragon looked down at Arad, "We dragons can fly as silently as owls and camouflage ourselves better than most lizards. You still haven't learned that."

The dragon circled toward Arad, sniffing him, "A newborn, I could still smell the egg's mucus on you. You better wash it off with your elemental energy."

[He's lying. Void dragons don't have any smell.]

"I'm sure I washed it off," Arad replied, and the dragon giggled.

"I thought you void dragons lack smell? It doesn't matter, and make sure other dragons can't know your nature." The dragon wiggled its neck, "I was passing by and happened to hear your roar, said to myself I could save you."

[Green dragons are manipulative liars, don't believe a word.]

"Save me?"

"My lair is up north in the Crypt forest of Claug. Feel free to visit me." The dragon turned around, expanding its wings.

"What would I gain from visiting you?" Arad yelled.

"The protection of a green dragon, and before you ask, I get the service of a void wyrmling." The dragon disappeared, Thud! It then flew away as quickly as it appeared.

[What do you want to do?]

Arad replied, sighting in relief. ^I will visit him when I reach ancient status.^

[I will add it as a quest in your system. Feel free to ignore or follow it.]

****

[The green dragon Invitation: A green dragon invited you to its lair in the Crypt forest of Claug. Recommended status: Ancient.]

Arad slowly walked to the city, thinking about what he should do.

^Spend the stat point on strength.^

[Finished.]

He walked to the guild, where he stood in front of the door. His legs screamed in pain.

Lifting his hand, he slowly pushed the door open, and all the adventurers stared at him.

"Arad returned. Call the healers!" They screamed. Half rushed inside, and the other half hurried to carry him.

"Let me go. I can walk!" Arad growled.

"No, do you want Nina to beat us? We're taking you inside." They rushed him into a room where a healer waited.

Alcott and Aella visited him after he healed.

"How are you doing?" Alcott asked with a smile. He stared at Arad as if he was an injured kid.

"Alive, and that's what matters." He stood and looked at Aella. "Will have a long talk about running your mouth later." She shrunk into the corner, scared.

"Come on, give the girl a break. I won't spill your secret." Alcott smiles, "I know how dangerous it is to make a dragon angry, and I don't know where your parents are." He laughed.

He could kill him. Alcott had the strength to do it. But he was afraid of Arad's parents.

"I don't think I can trust you." Arad growled, "You're a dragon slayer."

"Listen, I don't mind you as long as everyone is safe. Start killing people and then will have a problem." Alcott growled, glaring at Arad.

Arad sighed, "I won't hurt people," He then stared at Aella, "She's an exception now!"

Alcott stared at her, "I can't say what you can or can't do with your slaves. if she broke the contract, I'm staying out of it." Lifting his hands, he backed away.

Then someone knocked on the door, "Arad, someone is looking for you." Nina called him.

Arad stood, "I will go see what it is." As he walked downstairs, his legs and shoulders kept hurting. Each step is agonizing enough to make him want to scream.

[You were forced to transform. That's agonizing. To avoid the pain, I suggest transforming it into your draconic form before losing all of your HP.]

^I understand, but keeping my secret is important.^

When Arad reached the guild hall, he found a man he never saw before waiting for him. "Arad Orion, can we get a private room to talk in?" The man asked immediately.

Arad looked at Nina, "Please get us a room."

Nina guided them to a private room with a worried face, "Should I sit with you?" She asked.

"No, I will be fine," Arad replied with a smile, waving his hand.

After getting comfortable, the man cleared his throat, "I am from the slave market. We got notice that Aella broke her contract with you. Are you aware of that?"

Arad nodded, and the man looked down, "Spilled information. We don't know what she spilled. but it's not something you wanted to get out." He looked Arad in the eyes, "We can interrogate her to know what she spilled. You can also take that job into your hands." He sighed.

"I already know the full details. Aella spilled it to someone while I was present." Arad replied while scratching his head, "What should I do with her?"

"Two things, we can modify the contract in your favor or physically punish her. Of course, you can punish her yourself." The man said, "But we can also ignore an equal slip on your side. One by one is the rule."

Arad thought about it, "I will take the last option. I don't feel like beating her over it."

The man smiled. And then looked at Arad, "Assaulting the girl will still count as a breach."

"What do you think me?" Arad growled, "I won't see this as a chance," He sighed.

"Then what do you intend to do?" The man asked.

"I'm thinking about it," Arad replied.
