Godfrey chuckled dryly at the unexpected outcome of the battle.

He had been so certain that Ethan and his comrades would die gruesome deaths while facing the Dragon.

But reality was different.

The powerful Lord of the Red Wastes was lying helplessly on the sand, without even the strength to lift any of its heads.

The most it could do was pant heavily for breath, trying to recover as much as possible.

"What are we going to do?" Nicole asked. "Are we just going to leave it? It might bear a grudge against us and hunt us down at a later time."

"Let's just kill it," Lyall replied. "Can't Dainsleif absorb its body? He can do that, right?" "Sadly, he can't," Ethan answered. "He is too big and too powerful for him to absorb."

Dainsleif regretfully informed him a little while ago that absorbing Chudo Yudo was impossible.

Clearly, the Ancient Wendigo had already considered feasting on its body, but it was simply not meant to be.

"Then, what do we do?" Conall asked. "I don't really like the idea of having a monster like this bearing a grudge against us. Even my father would have a hard time dealing with this thing, so I propose that we kill it while it's still weak."

Everyone, with the exception of Ethan, nodded in agreement.

But before they could enact their plan on killing the three-headed Dragon, Ethan spoke up first.

"Let me try something first," Ethan said before flying towards the Dragon, who was lying helplessly on the sand.

Hecate, who was still riding on the Wind Dancer, was very curious about what Ethan was planning to do.

When they were right above the Dragon's body, a golden egg suddenly appeared in Ethan's hand.

Before Ethan could even place it on top of the Dragon's body, the egg took the initiative to jump off of his palm and landed on Chudo Yudo's back.

A moment later, it greedily absorbed the three-headed Dragon's magical power and life force, making its giant body start to squirm.

It was as if Chudo Yudo was doing its best to gather all the strength on its body in order to escape the golden egg, which made it feel threatened.

However, as if knowing the Dragon's intention, the golden egg only increased its absorption speed, rendering the Lord who ruled the Red Wastes helpless.

"W-What is that golden egg?" Hecate asked in awe. "I've never seen something like it before."

"It's one greedy little guy," Ethan replied. "The only thing it knows how to do is absorb magic and life force. Maybe a pig will be born from it once the egg hatches."

Suddenly, a voice of a young child that was hard to discern if it belonged to a boy or a girl sounded in Ethan's ears.

"You're the pig!"

For a brief moment, Ethan thought that Hecate was the one who spoke.

But after glancing at the young lady, she firmly shook her head, telling him that it wasn't her who spoke just now.

"Don't tell me..." Ethan muttered as he looked at the golden egg, who seemed very happy as it absorbed the three-headed Dragon's vitality.

He had been feeding it with his magical powers from time to time, but since the egg knew that Ethan had limited powers, it would stop whenever the young man's magic reserves were halfway depleted.

Now that it had an abundant supply of magical powers and life force, it ate to its fill, making the desperate Dragon use telepathy to talk to Ethan.

"M-Make him stop!" Chudo Yudo begged. "I'm going to die at this rate!"

"That's the plan," Ethan replied.

"No! I can't die!" Chudo Yudo shouted. "This world needs me when the sky falls apart!"

"What are you talking about?" Ethan inquired. "You're just spouting nonsense because you're about to kick the bucket."

"I-Ignorant mortal!" Chudo Yudo shouted in anger. "You don't know what you're doing! We're already stretched thin as it is, and you want to eliminate one of the Guardians of this

world?!"

"Guardian?" Ethan frowned. "What nonsense are you talking about? If you don't explain properly, I will let this piglet egg drain you until you croak."

"You're the piglet!" the Golden Egg protested.

However, compared to earlier, it lessened the speed of absorption, allowing the three- headed Dragon to talk properly.

"The End of Days is approaching," Chudo Yudo stated. "Even now, the fabric that protects this world from other planes of existence is stretched thin. Do you not hear it? Do you not feel it? The land of Saraqael is trembling as we speak!"

At the mention of the Lands of Saraqael, Ethan's frown deepened.

He only knew of it as the battleground where various worlds and planes of existence merged together to form a vast space where everyone competed for territories.

His grandfather was one of the vanguards that protected Midgard from these otherworldly threats.

So anything related to it was something that Ethan took seriously.

"So, you're saying that something is happening in the Lands of Saraqael?" Ethan asked.

"Yes," Chudo Yudo replied. "The start of a great war that hadn't been seen in the past hundreds of years.

"The possibility of existences from other worlds breaking past our defenders and entering our world is high.

"This is why the Guardians, including me, must protect our Domains to prevent any of these monsters from invading our world."

'He might be telling the truth,' Ethan's Other Half commented. 'I don't hear any lies in his words. Also, I've been unable to contact Ashmedai since a while ago. It seems that he is busy

with something.'

Hearing his Other Half's words, Ethan pondered a bit before coming up with an idea.

"I still can't trust your words, but I'll give you a chance," Ethan replied. "Form a Master and subordinate contract with me. As long as you agree, I will let you live."

"You dare?!" Chudo Yudo growled in anger.

"Don't worry. I promise not to force you to do anything that you don't want to do," Ethan said. "I'm only doing this to ensure that you won't seek revenge against us."

"Can't you just take my word for it?" Chudo Yudo was unwilling to become the subordinate of anyone. "Like I said, I am protecting this place for a reason."

"Do you think I was born yesterday?" Ethan sneered. "Either you agree, or this egg will drain you dry. There will be no compromise."

The Golden Egg shone brightly and started to increase its speed of absorption. It was as if it was giving the three-headed Dragon an ultimatum.

Agree or I eat you up.

Faced with such a difficult decision, Chudo Yudo reluctantly agreed to become Ethan's

subordinate.

Only when the contract was established did the Golden Egg return to Ethan's hand, shining with extreme satisfaction after eating its meal.
