Chapter 15: The first kill party and the emergency quest end. And...
"GRAOUGH! (MASTER!)"
Zombie growled and started crawling his way towards the dragonewt.
"GRAOUGH! (YOU FUCKING BASTARD! LEAVE MY MASTER ALONE!)"
He roared with glowing eyes.
/Skill failed
A message popped up.
"GRAOUGH! (YOU SHIT-FACED, MAGGOT EATING, SON OF A BITCH! ATTACK ME!)"
Zombie roared again and this time his taunt worked.
"Oh...? You have guts for such an annoying corpse puppet."
The dragonewt closed its jaws, deactivating the fire breath skill, and turned towards the small undead.
"Those disgraceful cheap-shots you landed on me hurt quite a bit, you know? My draconian skin level is low so it doesn\'t protect places without scales... let me properly return the favor...!"
The monster opened its jaws and its throat started shining again.
"So that was it? The draconian skin skill? System, heal my Zombie."
An annoyed voice called the monster out from the side.
/Permission received
Healing in progress...

"...?!"
The dragonewt opened its eyes wide in shock and tried to turn towards the girl he assumed roasted in his flames.
"Graough?! (What are you looking at, you dragon-shit?!)"
Zombie, already back on his healed feet, growled and delivered a ruthless roundhouse kick right into the monster\'s groins with his brightly shining leg.
"GHRAAAOOUUGHH!"
The dragonewt growled in pain and the fire breath skill it was preparing activated but got wasted on the ground below its feet where there was already no trace of Zombie.
Mostly because Zombie was right by the dragonewt\'s side, his leg already shining again, and he shut the monster\'s jaws with a devastating kick, which caused the fire breath skill to backfire, causing some sizable damage to the beast.
"You bashtard...! Thish ish notshing!"
With burnt tongue and a few teeth missing, the dragonewt became a bit less articulated.
"Graough! (Ha! You idiot! I\'m just a support!)"
Zombie ridiculed his opponent and jumped away.
"Hwat...?"
The dragonewt shook its head, trying to get rid of the dizziness caused by its own skill failure when it suddenly shuddered from dread.
Relying on sheer instinct the monster protected its head with its wings.
"Tsk...!"
An annoyed click of the tongue came from above and was followed by a calamitous strike that tore right through the wings and ripped off its lower jaw.
"Ghghughu...!"
The dragonewt staggered and raised its hands towards what was left of its mouth, but the only thing that it felt was the blood gushing out of the horrible wound.
The monster\'s eyes shook after it managed to focus them on the little human in front of it.
Cranberry was glaring at it with an ice-cold smile.
"Say, dragonewt, what kind of idiot reveals his triumph card\'s weakness?"
She asked and clenched her fists around the bat so hard that her knuckles turned white.
"A low-level draconian skin doesn\'t protect against the magic damage, idiot!"
She said as her eyes started glowing and condensed mana began coiling around the bat.
"Also, you tried to burn someone from the Pride family! You absolute moron, all of us have fire immunity since birth!"
She roared fiercely and swung at the dragonewt.
And when the mana-enhance bat connected, it tore right through the dragonewt\'s muscular body, tearing it in half vertically.

The messages started popping up the moment the two halves of the dead dragonewt hit the ground.
Cranberry glanced at them and made a refreshed smile but Zombie ended up sulking.
"Haa..."
Cranberry sighed and rested the bloodied baseball bat on her shoulder.
"The system keeps screwing you over, huh? Don\'t worry, I got you."
She bumped her fist on Zombie\'s shoulder.
"System, I want to share enraged and empower with my Zombie, permanently.
Cranberry declared.

"How about now?"
Cranberry grinned at her servant.
The blue boy shook his head and got up close to the red-haired girl and grabbed her free hand.
"Zombie? What\'s going on?"
She tilted her head confused.
"Graough...! (Master...! I was scared...!) Graough!? (Why didn\'t you tell me about your fire immunity before?!) Graough! (I really thought that that lizard got you! I was worried to death!)"
Zombie was very upset and started crying.
"Ah...! Um... Sorry, you see, I guess that I just forgo..."
Cranberry fidgeted awkwardly while Zombie was wiping the cold tears with his left hand.
"Incredible! Simply incredible!"
"Pride family is as strong as ever!"
"Young lady! Please marry my grandson!"
Suddenly deafening cheers erupted from the audience causing both children to flinch.
The adults approached them and Cranberry was healed with a strong spell before returning to her seat together with her servant.
Zomnie was still sulking so the master continued to hold hands with him.
The monster corpse was removed and the area was cleared.
The high priest cleared his throat and called out the final participant.
"The first prince of our beloved kingdom, young lord Roan Greed."
The blond boy with a greatsword stood up and rushed towards the center of the arena, it was clear that witnessing a fight like the one Cranberry and Zombie had, made him pumped up and ready to show off just as much, if not more.
But for that, he would need an even greater foe than the dragonewt that the red-haired girl and her blue undead defeated.
"Ah...!"
"N-no way...!"
The audience let out gasps of shock and awe when the monster was brought out from its den.
"Graough...! (Whoa...!)"
Zombie gasped.
"Haa... a young dragon. As expected of the royal family."
Cranberry slowly breathed out and leaned back comfortably in her chair.
"But, wouldn\'t killing it just like that be a waste?"
She asked and glanced to the side.
She met the serious gaze of the androgynous boy, Claymore, and they both nodded to each other and looked at Mary, the girl who already had the tamer class.
The young dragon that was brought looked like it was on the verge of death.
Its eyes were bloodshot and the dark red scales were peeling off from its joints.
The dragon didn\'t even try to attack when the magic bindings wore off, it just slumped on the ground and growled pitifully.
Similarly, the blond prince hadn\'t even taken out his greatsword, but whether it was because he decided it was better not to do that, or that he was unable to because the weapon was attached in a ridiculous place, was up to debate.
He approached the weak red dragon and raised his bare hands showing that he doesn\'t have any ill will.
The dragon looked at him with eyes full of pain and growled questioningly.
"Dragon, I have a proposition for you."
Prince Roan kneeled by the dragon and looked into the monster\'s eyes.
"I\'ve learned from my teachers that all dragons are very intelligent and powerful and you definitely would give me lots of experience..."
He said and the dragon groaned and closed its eyes, prepared for the finishing strike that would release it from the pain.
"But I won\'t do that."
After hearing those words the dragon opened one eye and glared at the blond boy with resentment, it clearly dreaded every moment of his tormented existence.
As it moved, more of the dark-red scales peeled off of its body.
"Right now I\'m only level 1 and classless, but I can assure you that I will level up in no time."
Roan explained at which dragon growled at him to hurry up and get to the point.
"I know that when a dragon makes a promise, only its own death will force it to break it. That\'s why I have a proposition for you."
Roan smiled friendly, as if all this talk up until that point wasn\'t carefully prepared by his teachers, and extended his hand towards the dragon.
Dragon didn\'t even growl at him this time, in its state even breathing was painful so it just continued to glare at the prince in silence.
"I can promise you that once I\'ll get to level 10, I will unlock a tamer class. And in turn, I want you to promise me that once I\'ll achive that, you will become my tamed monster. If you do that, my family will heal you."
The prince recited and looked at the dragon expectantly.
The dragon growled and tried to get up, but it was too weak and slumped right back down causing a large number of red scales to fall off.
"...you are very impudent and greedy, little human..."
The dragon blinked and his voice was transmitted telepathically to everyone present, it sounded oddly similar to Roan\'s voice.
"...but if there\'s a chance that I will be able to fly again..."
It tried to move its wings but they only shook and limply hung down on both sides of its body.
"...I agree to your proposition, little human. I will become your tamed monster, now heal...!"
It suddenly stopped talking.
/Proficiency level reached
/Servant\'s skill upgrade
Corpse venom (level 3)
Cranberry and Zombie looked at each other in complete shock.
The weak red dragon\'s body started shaking and foam started bubbling up from its mouth.
Suddenly that white foam got dyed red and the monster\'s reptile\'s eyes rolled back as the intelligent and powerful young red dragon keeled over and died on the spot.
