‘What kind of friend contract is this? Why is the little female dragon rising while I’m the one falling!’
‘Could it be…’
Xiao Hei’s eyes instantly revealed a look of terror and fear.
This didn’t seem to be a friend contract at all, but rather…
‘A master-servant contract.’
By the time she truly realized it, it was already too late—the contract formation was complete.
The moment it was completed, Zhu Qiu slowly floated down from the air to the ground, while the heavy gravity pressing down on Xiao Hei returned to normal.
A bone mark appeared on her forehead, signifying that she had become Zhu Qiu’s servant, or rather, her pet.
“Baby girl, the contract is complete. Xiao Hei is now your servant. You can do whatever you want with her from now on, and you don’t have to worry about her hurting us.”
Zhu Xiaxia patted Zhu Qiu’s head and smiled.
“Huh? So that’s how it is! But I know you did this to control the Demon King. Why didn’t you make yourself the contract holder instead? As the Dragon King, you should be better at managing her, right?”
Zhu Qiu tilted her head in confusion.
“Of course. But I promised to leave the Demon King to you for handling, so I chose you. Well? Doesn’t it make you happy to turn the Demon King into your servant? Hmm?”
She raised an eyebrow with a mischievous grin.
“Will she really obey everything I say?”
Zhu Qiu asked again, uncertain.
“Of course. This is the Dragon King Enhanced Master-Servant Contract. No matter what happens, even if the world is destroyed or the Three-Body People invade Earth, this contract will last forever.”
“So that’s how it is. Hehe~”
Upon hearing this good news, Zhu Qiu gave a sly smile, her eyes narrowing like a mischievous emoji, as if awakening some new attribute.
‘This Demon King was already annoying. Now she’s not only lost her magic power but has also become my servant. I have to have some fun bullying her.’
Xiao Hei, who had picked herself up off the ground, was furious and wanted to swallow them whole.
“You, you two female dragons conspired against me!”
“What are you talking about? When did I ever scheme against you? You agreed to sign the contract yourself. Are you blaming me?”
Zhu Xiaxia put on an “it has nothing to do with me” attitude.
“Then, then it must be you! This little female dragon is the one who signed the contract. It’s all your fault!”
Zhu Qiu didn’t flinch at all.
“What are you talking about? I just happened to pass by and accidentally stepped on the magic circle. That has nothing to do with me either. If you want to blame someone, blame yourself for stepping on the other magic circle. Hehe~”
“I was tied up! How was I supposed to leave the magic circle?! You’re clearly bullying me!”
Zhu Xiaxia and Zhu Qiu exchanged a glance, smiled at each other, and then looked at Xiao Hei simultaneously, saying almost in unison:
“We’re bullying you!”
This sudden unison stunned Xiao Hei.
‘These two evil dragons are even worse than I thought. Unbelievably bad! They’re two huge villains!’
“Alright, baby girl. Now that the master-servant contract is signed, it’s time to set up the specific commands for the servant. Just silently recite the command in your mind and imagine the servant performing the action.”
“Oh, I see~”
Zhu Qiu got excited.
“So for commands, can I set them to anything?”
“Of course.”
“Hehe~ Then I’ll set one like this.”
Zhu Qiu closed her eyes and began to imagine.
“Hey! Evil Dragon, whatever the contract is, you promised you’d give me my freedom once I signed it. I’ve signed it now, so hurry up and untie me!”
Even though the master-servant contract was signed, Xiao Hei still clung to a sliver of hope.
“Alright, I’ll untie you now.”
Zhu Xiaxia walked over and unclasped the Devouring Shackle.
Xiao Hei shook her foot in disbelief.
‘It’s gone! It’s really gone! It’s actually been unclasped! My freedom is back!’
“Goodbye, female dragon! I’m free now! I’ll find a way to create a space rift, free all my people, and rule the world! Hahahaha!”
She ran out the door without looking back.
Zhu Xiaxia didn’t chase after her. She just smiled.
Running at top speed, Xiao Hei noticed no one was following her and realized she had actually succeeded.
‘I don’t have magic power now, but at least I can recover. Once my magic power is restored, I, the Demon King, will be back in top form.’
“Female dragon, this will be the biggest mistake of your life! You’re all finished! Hahahaha!”
Xiao Hei stood with her hands on her hips in the open space in front of the Imperial Palace, laughing.
Suddenly, her movements stiffened.
The next second, her body uncontrollably dropped to the ground, her limbs supporting her, her long thin tail spinning behind her.
“What the hell? What’s happening to me?!”
Before she could think further, her hands and feet unconsciously started moving toward the interior of the Imperial Palace.
“Hey! Damn legs, what are you doing?! I finally got out! Don’t walk back there on your own!”
No matter how hard she tried, every attempt to regain control ended in failure.
Back in the room, Zhu Qiu had already thought of her command and the corresponding action, and started executing it.
“Click-click-click~”
About ten seconds later, Xiao Hei appeared at the door, sitting on the ground and letting out a bark.
“Woof!”
“Ahh!”
Xiao Hei quickly covered her mouth in shock.
‘What is going on?! Why did I come back like a real dog and even barked?! My dignity as the Demon King is completely ruined!’
Xiao Hei wanted to cry but had no tears.
Even so, she vaguely guessed that losing control had something to do with the little female dragon.
“Little dragon, why did I uncontrollably crawl over here!”
Xiao Hei was bold and asked directly.
“Of course, it’s because of the master-servant contract between us. I’m the master, you’re the servant, so of course you have to listen to me.”
“I’m ordering you right now! Immediately and without delay, tear up this contract! Or else I won’t be nice to you!”
Upon hearing the command, Xiao Hei’s body moved faster than her mind, immediately sitting up straight.
“Click-click-click~”
“Woof!”
“Click-click-click~”
“Woof!”
“Click-click-click~”
“Woof!”
“Hehe, this is so fun.”
“Hey! Are you done or not?! Don’t you think this is unfair to me?!”
“Not really. Don’t you think the way you looked just now was sacred?”
“Sacred my ass! That was a dog bark! It was humiliating!”
Xiao Hei’s face turned red with anger.
“But I think it was sacred.”
“You…”
Xiao Hei was speechless.
At that moment, Zhu Xiaxia reminded Zhu Qiu:
“Baby girl, this contract is mainly to control the Demon King and prevent the demon race from making a comeback. Do you understand what I mean?”
“Of course I do. Actually, doing this all the time is pretty boring. A Demon King is nothing special; it’s not fun at all. I’d rather spend my time doing something meaningful.”
With that, Zhu Qiu clasped the Devouring Shackle back onto Xiao Hei’s ankle.
“No fair! Waaah~”
Xiao Hei was completely in despair.
Zhu Xiaxia, hearing that Zhu Qiu had voluntarily said she wanted to do something meaningful, also looked completely shocked.
