Red Dragon has magic

Chapter 83 Servant
After the brass dragon finished looting, it returned to the castle with the spoils. It took several minutes to hear that the fire giant had his wishes distorted by the wish spell and was now trapped in the oil lamp. It was indeed not a joke.

"Is this fire giant a bit... I don't know whether to say he is unlucky or stupid... If I say stupid, he sometimes seems quite cunning."

The brass dragon had already transformed into a human form. He liked the image of a cheerful human in his thirties, and continued, "We didn't target him originally. We just wanted to sell the pass, so we deliberately spread some rumors. He actually believed it and came to me all of a sudden..."

The brass dragon stared at the oil lamp and complained, "When using the wishing spell, I didn't describe my wish properly. Well, my wish has been distorted... or maybe it hasn't been distorted. Anyway, I'm trapped now."

"I want to ask a question now." The brass dragon said, his eyes lit up, and he was eager to try. "What do you think? Can we rub the oil lamp, then release him and make a wish to him... Have you heard of the Fire Giant Prison Bottle? Just pull out the cork and release the Fire Giant, and the Fire Giant can perform three wishes for you."

"As long as we describe the wish clearly and don't be too greedy... it won't be a problem to create a non-magical item worth tens of thousands of gold coins with a wish spell." The brass dragon licked his lips greedily. "There are just three of us, one for each of us."

"You're dreaming." Tassera rolled her eyes at the brass dragon. She thought to herself, whether or not a fire giant is stupid is hard to say, but you are stupid anyway. "He is an ordinary fire giant, not a fire giant noble... A fire giant noble also doesn't have the ability to perform three wishes in one breath, unless you are a fire giant sultan."

"The words of the Fire Giant Sultan..." Tassera laughed. Even if she could not tolerate any explicit or implicit evaluation of her weakness, the most conceited blue dragon must have the minimum self-knowledge. "We should force him to the point where he uses the wish spell. If he wants to crush us, he only needs to move his fingers."

"Even if the Fire Giant Sultan can be compared to gods..." the brass dragon muttered, "it's not that easy to kill us. As long as we don't go to the Fire Elemental Plane, he can't do anything to us. The Material Plane is not something that anyone can come to if they want to."

The brass dragon picked up the magic oil lamp, looked left and right, threw it down in disgust, and said, "If nothing can be done, it is better to kill the fire giant from the beginning. Less trouble is worse than more."

Leon had calmed down from his excitement. He looked around and said, "I think what Aegon said makes some sense... So, what should we do now? Clean the oil lamp, open the cover, let the djinn out and kill him, or put this lamp in the deepest part of the treasury and seal it forever?"

Tassela looked at Leon and said, "You decide. We are here to help you... according to our previous alliance."

Leon walked back and forth with his arms folded across his chest, still unable to make up his mind.

"Perhaps we can talk to him." Tassera said, "You are still a young dragon and do not have the ability to transform the Steam Lake, but the Lord of Flame, the Fire Giant, has the ability. Let him help you transform the Steam Lake in exchange for his life."

"What if he breaks the contract and runs away?" Leon asked subconsciously.

"We must sign a contract." Lyon would not sign a contract with magical power, and did not think in that direction for a moment. As a magic dragon, Tassela had plenty of ways to do it.

In dragon form, Leon was easily excited, easily angry, and his emotions were not stable enough. Now in human form, Leon is calm enough. Thinking about the fact that he and the Fire Giant have no blood feud, if he can make the Fire Giant serve him, it is not a bad idea to spare the Fire Giant's life. He nodded and said, "It's not impossible."

After getting a positive answer from Leon, Tassera decisively cast a spell, trying to communicate with the fire giant in the magic oil lamp, but received no response, and the fire giant did not want to pay attention to her.

"Let's talk about it after a while." Leon said indifferently, "We have to make him suffer a little."

The matter of the Fire Giant has come to an end for the time being, and the remaining question is how to distribute the spoils? The Fire Giant left behind two weapons, which are quite valuable. The Fire Giant's contract warlock tricked many adventurers and mercenaries into coming here to die, and the spoils left behind after the killing are quite a lot.

Leon's idea was simple. First of all, the magic oil lamp was his, and the fire giant was his. Besides that, all the things were divided into three parts according to their value. Normally, the red dragon would definitely take all the spoils at this time, or at least take the lion's share. Leon was willing to divide it into three parts, so the brass dragon would certainly not refuse.

Tassela wished she could pick the spoils in advance until she had collected a third of the total value.

After distributing the spoils, there was really nothing left to do.

Next, we will promote the threat theory of red dragons and blue dragons. Now we can use the fire giant as a counterexample, and then we will continue selling passes.

I have to say, the carrot-and-stick approach of one playing the good cop and the other the bad cop is really useful, and Leon and Tassera really did something, not just cheating money. After all the operations, a caravan still bought the pass.

As the first caravan passed through the territory of the red dragon and the blue dragon safely with the pass, many caravans that had been waiting and watching bought the pass one after another after hearing that the price of the pass would increase every month. As for those who had been working as temporary guards and lost their jobs, they could only say that the vast desert and the territory of the red dragon and the blue dragon were insignificant, and they still had many places to go.

About a month later, Leon contacted Tassera again and asked her to communicate with the Fire Giant to see if the Fire Giant was willing to serve him.

"I can help you transform the steam lake into a lava lake..." The fire giant, who had stayed in the oil lamp for a month, finally gave in. He was so eager for freedom. "Then you let me go, and I promise not to retaliate in any direct or indirect way."

"I'm not afraid of your revenge. I can defeat you now, and I'm still a young dragon. I will become stronger and stronger until I can crush you with just one finger." Leon knew the essence of bargaining. He asked for a high price and paid the low price. "For eighty years of service until I become an adult dragon."

"It's too long." Eighty years is indeed a long time, and the Fire Giant would certainly not agree.

"Thirty years." Leon took a step back, "Until I become a young dragon."

"A little shorter." The fire giant still didn't let go.

"Thirty years is a long time for humans because they have a short lifespan, but for you giants, it's just a snap of a finger." Leon snapped his fingers. "You have two choices. Be my servant for thirty years, or be my slave for ten years. During these ten years, you must work every day, and you cannot keep your property and lose all your power."

The fire giant was undoubtedly very greedy: "As a compromise, I can be your servant for ten years."

"Let's talk again in a month." Lyon said lightly.

The fire giant finally surrendered. He despised the act of forced enslavement, so he agreed to become Leon's servant and serve Leon for thirty years, whether as an overseer or a thug. After all, it was not shameful to be loyal to a powerful red dragon that could defeat him when he was a young dragon.

From then on, Leon had a powerful fire giant servant.
