Ignoring the fact that his mind was under heavy strain from observing the Kingdom while in Limbo, Idan used his Soul Force to look inside the Kingdom and saw that the depleted energy of the fire element had noticeably recovered. He couldn't help but be pleased.
In the short time he had been observing the Kingdom, Idan had only felt a slight discomfort after dispelling his Soul Force.
"Okay, you can go and try to convince our boy to sign a contract with you," Papa Dragon said.
"But keep in mind, if you can't persuade him, don't even think about using force, we'll be watching you," Mama Dragon added.
With that, a powerful force enveloped Idan again, and his vision went dark.
The next thing Idan realized when he saw the light was his return to the very place from where he had been teleported to the center of the Forbidden Zone.
"Idan!" exclaimed Milica, noticing his appearance, and sighed with relief when she saw that her student was all right. "I'm so glad you're okay!"
"Master," — Idan said, seeing that Milica was really worried about him.
"I'm fine," he assured, and at that moment he felt something begin to climb up his legs. Lowering his gaze, he met the eyes of a baby dragon, which stopped and, clinging to his leg, stared at him intently.
"What happened?" asked Milica, approaching Idan.
"You should have guessed by now who teleported me and where," Idan said with a slight smile, and Milica hesitated and nodded.
He then briefly told her about what had happened and how he had concluded the Epic-rank Soul Contract. This surprised Milica a lot, because her true rank was Epic.
"So they allowed me to sign a contract with their cub?" — Milica's gaze fell on the baby dragon that was clinging to Idan's leg.
"Yes, they said they wouldn't mind if I tried to persuade the baby dragon to follow me." Idan bent down, picked up the baby dragon, lifting it off his leg, and, lifting it in front of him, looked into its eyes.
The baby dragon, despite its Platinum rank, had a slightly silly face. He stuck out his tongue and tried to lick Idan's face, but Idan wouldn't let him.
"What a fidget," Idan smiled, and Milica, seeing this, laughed loudly.
Elira, who had already assumed human form in her beautiful red dress, stood a little apart and watched this scene, smiling. She then turned around to make sure that the other dragons hadn't recovered yet.
A little further away, other creatures could be seen, most of which were also dragons. But none of them dare approach them.
"Tell me, do you want to come with me?" asked Idan of the baby dragon, and he quickly shook his head, refusing.
"No?" — Idan's smile faded when he saw how quickly the baby dragon refused.
"Gra-a-a-a," the baby dragon nodded.
"Even if I say that if you follow me, you will be able to taste not only the candies that you have already tried, but also something more delicious and amazing?" asked Idan, referring to the lollipops that cost 50 System points without discount.
This time, the baby dragon didn't shake its head so quickly. He looked at Idan with some confusion.
He raised his head and growled softly, as if asking a question to someone.
"If you're worried about your parents, don't worry. You can see them anytime you want. I give you my word that I will bring you to them as soon as the opportunity arises." Idan confidently promised.
Milica and Elira, as well as Mama and Papa Dragon, carefully watched the baby dragon's reaction and response.
The baby dragon was still in doubt and couldn't make up his mind.
Suddenly, abruptly raising his head, he let out a loud roar and, looking at Idan, finally nodded in agreement.
"Did they tell him something?" suggested Idan, watching the baby dragon's rapid change of mood after it raised its head.
"That's not the main thing," he said to himself, and, picking up the baby dragon, touched his forehead with the index finger of his right hand.
"System, act!" — Idan gave the command, not wanting to miss such a chance.
System was instantly activated. Under its guidance, the Idan's Soul Force penetrated through the baby dragon's forehead and, quickly finding his soul, cut off a small piece from it. Grabbing this piece, it instantly transported it to the Idan's Soul Space, where it found Idan's previously extinct Second Star, and flew inside.
The baby dragon, feeling a sharp pain, opened his eyes wide and roared loudly. Tears began to flow from his eyes.
Meanwhile, Idan's Second Star began to come to life, glowing with orange light and establishing a connection with the baby dragon.
As soon as the connection was established, and before the Lava Lake had time to tremble, the baby dragon shone and, turning into particles, swiftly flew into Idan's body, dissolving inside his Second Star.
[Ding! The second contract has been successfully concluded. Congratulations to Host on taming the second being.]
"A second contract?" said Idan with a slight sadness in his voice, remembering Rizzy.
"Actually, this was supposed to be my third contract," Idan added softly, simultaneously feeling mixed feelings of joy and sadness at taming the baby dragon that took Rizzy's place.
Idan didn't have time to raise his head before his vision went black again. When the light returned to his eyes, he was back in the center of the Forbidden Area, and four huge, furious eyes were staring at him.
"Where is he? Where's my boy?" the Mama Dragon asked with fury in her voice.
Papa Dragon said nothing, but Idan, looking into his eyes, understood that they were even more terrible and dangerous than the eyes of Mama Dragon.
"Here he is," he said, summoning the baby dragon, which appeared in his arms with the same bright light and had already stopped crying.
When they saw the living baby dragon, and before he could notice their fierce eyes, they closed their eyes and quickly shrank to a small size.
"Graa! graaa!" the baby dragon jumped off Idan's arms and rushed to the Mama Dragon.
