Dragon Master: The SSS-Ranked School Belle Asked Me To Contract Her

Veer was going to interrogate the thug leader, but before he could do so, he heard a familiar voice shouting at him.

"V!!!"

Turning his head to the side, he saw a tall, tomboyish young woman running toward him. Her short hair fluttered in the wind as the T-shirt she wore clung to her athletic figure, along with her shorts.

She stopped before him and asked, "You okay?"

Chuckling softly, Veer replied, "Alive, as always."

Elara narrowed her eyes at him but didn't say anything. Her gaze then landed on the thugs rolling on the ground, trying to lessen their pain.

Veer had struck their vital organs, so even though he didn't beat them much, they were on the brink of death. He had studied body structure thoroughly, so it was easy for him to target specific parts.

For example, with the first thug, he shattered his ribs in such a way that they would poke his heart but not kill him, rendering him in immense pain.

Elara raised an eyebrow and said, "They don't look like assassins..."

Putting his gauntlet back in his storage ring, Veer replied, "Because they aren't. I was just going to ask them who sent them."

Elara hummed, and her gaze finally landed on the thug leader, who was glaring at them while clutching his chest. She could see something protruding from beneath his flesh, which made her smile.

"As perfect as always," Elara crouched near the thug leader and said, "Leave the interrogation to me."

She raised her hand, an incandescent glow appearing on her fingers. Smiling, she put her finger on the burly man's cheek. "Tell me the truth!"

"Aghh!" the burly man groaned as he felt the terrifying heat on his cheek. Knowing what it was, he immediately opened his mouth. "I'll tell you, so please keep that away."

"Good!" Elara smiled, which wasn't an amusing sight at all.

The thug leader gulped, looking at her hands. He had gotten information about all three of the S-Rank Aspect Awakeners, so he, of course, recognized the flames. The thought of being burned by them terrified him.

He coughed up some blood and said, "I don't know much. We're just a small gang trying to survive, but it's hard as we don't have any good Aspect. So, we joined the White Tiger Gang to work under them. This mission was given to us by the leader."

Veer frowned, as the name wasn't unfamiliar to him. It was one of the major gangs in the underworld and was quite famous in the area.

Why would they want to kill him? Did someone pay them to do it?

The thug leader looked at his brethren and sighed. "We had no choice, as rejection or failure would lead to my group's elimination. So, we came here according to those orders. I seriously have no clue about anything else."

"He's telling the truth."

As Veer was contemplating, he heard a cold voice behind him. He turned around, only to find the white-haired beauty standing there.

Liliana sweetly smiled at him, then returned to her usual look. She looked down at the burly man and said, "My mom is a Spirit Dragon, so I inherited some of her powers. You don't need to worry—he's telling the truth."

"Thanks," Veer said as he began to think about the White Tiger Gang. However, he then pushed the matter to the back of his mind. He would look into it later.

"Let's go," Veer said, looking at Elara. "We need to reach Star City in two hours, you know."

Elara nodded and stood up. Together with her friends, she walked away from the mess Veer had created. As they got near their car, Elara said, "I already called the police and told them some good things. They'll handle the situation with them."

Raising his hand, Veer patted her head and smiled, "Thanks as always."

"Just be careful next time," Elara snorted but let him pat her head.

Veer chuckled and retrieved his hand, earning a glare from Elara. He winked at her and entered the car, followed by Elara.

Inside, Liliana was already waiting for them, seated on the left side. Elara, being the last to enter, sat on the right.

As for Veer, he sat in the middle of both of them, wearing a silly grin on his face. "Ah! This is really heaven."

Elara laughed at his words and hugged him. "Hehe!"

However, she then noticed his bloodied hand and pinched his waist, making him cry out in pain.

"Hey! Hey! You're supposed to hug me," Veer swatted her hand away. He might have smiled if Liliana had pinched his waist, but Elara was different. She used her monstrous strength, so it hurt a lot.

Elara was going to scold him but decided against it. Ignoring him, she quickly went through her storage ring to find some healing potions for him.

However, she was a little too slow, as someone else was already tending to him.

Liliana had noticed his bloodied hand and took out a blue-colored potion. Holding his hand, she gently poured it on the wounds.

The wounds, which included minor bone injuries, began to heal at a visible rate, and before long, his hand returned to normal.

She then cleaned it with a soft towel and said, "This should do."

Elara's mouth was wide open as she gave Liliana a full thumbs-up. "You're awesome."

Veer felt something stir inside his heart when he saw how gently Liliana treated him. The care and love in her eyes were hard to hide, and he could easily see it.

He smiled and said, "You'd make a good wife, Liliana."

"Good for you, I guess," Liliana chuckled softly.

"Of course!" Veer laughed and pulled both of his wives into a tight hug. "I don't know what I did to deserve two wonderful wives, and I don't know what the future holds for us. But I will always love you both."

He hadn't loved Liliana at first, and even now, he wasn't sure he felt the same kind of love for her as he did for Elara. However, he was determined to love them both and give them everything they deserved.

This wasn't even because of his system, but his own decision.

A smile formed on both women's faces as they said simultaneously, "We love you too!!"
