Hearing the voice from behind, Copperfield looked at the dragon behind him. This dragon was probably not old, and it was obvious that it had no social experience.

It had probably been alone in the mountains.

As for the Flame Crystal, it was probably not a rare item to this fire dragon.

However, it was indeed him who had taken the item first. The appropriate compensation was also in line with Copperfield's principles.

Furthermore, when he was suppressing the soul power within his body, it could be considered that the giant flame dragon had a pretty good heart. It didn't harbor any killing intent towards him and was rather interested in him.

Hence, Copperfield straightforwardly opened his mouth to speak.

"Then what compensation do you want?"

The giant dragon shook its huge head and thought for a moment.

If it were to ask this human for the cultivation method right now, this human probably wouldn't give it to it directly.

However, this human clearly had a motive for coming to the volcanic region.

As long as he stayed in this volcanic region for a day, there would always be times when he would need to ask for his help. With that human's two-star power, he wouldn't be able to travel freely in this volcanic region.

First, he would casually make a condition for the human to play with it for a few more days. After all, so many years had passed, and there were no creatures that could communicate with him. It should be quite interesting.

From the moment the flame dragon was born, it had been entrenched in the volcano region. However, the magical beasts that lived in the volcano region were mostly at two to four-star power.

The fire dragon has been extremely cautious since young. After all, it had never seen its parents before. As for its own kind, it was even more so.

Living in the volcano region, if it were to be targeted by a high-tier magical beast one day, there would be no one able to support it.

Fortunately, the flame dragon had finally advanced to tier 3. This, in addition to its powerful dragon bloodline, makes it the overlord of the volcano region. Even if it was faced with an ordinary tier 4 magical beast, it would still be able to hold its own.

Thinking of this, the dragon rolled its eyes and said slowly.

"The food you made just now tastes pretty good. If you can bring me a roasted magical beast every day for the next month, then I won't pursue the matter of you stealing my Flame Crystal."

After hearing the dragon's request, Copperfield didn't know whether to laugh or cry.

His previous guess was right. The dragon had been living in the mountains since birth and hadn't eaten anything good before. The Flame Crystal wasn't precious to it.

It could be assumed that he had accidentally absorbed the dragon's snacks, causing the dragon to fly into a rage. After a long time, it decided to ask him to cook for it every day.

However, Copperfield really wasn't able to agree to the dragon's conditions.

Even if cooking was a simple task for Copperfield, he didn't have the time to waste a month in this place with the dragon.

If Copperfield knew that the dragon's true goal was to understand why his fire affinity had become so high and why his fire-type soul power was so pure, Copperfield would definitely have told the dragon without hesitation.

After all, after absorbing the fire-type soul power contained within the Flame Crystal, Nameless' attributes had also changed.

If the dragon wanted to know how to purify his fire-type soul power, he would have to sign a contract with Copperfield.

After signing the contract, the dragon will also be controlled by Copperfield.

At that time, it would only depend on whether the dragon could accept the contract or not.

After all, once the contract was signed with Copperfield, the dragon would become Copperfield's slave.

Even if Copperfield wouldn't intentionally order the dragon to do something against his will, becoming a slave for a human was something that the proud dragon race would find hard to accept.

Helpless, Copperfield could only speak.

"I can cook some food for you while I stay in the volcanic region, but there's nothing I can do after I leave."

"Unless you're willing to leave with me."

Copperfield also had his own thoughts. If this dragon was extremely greedy, it wouldn't be impossible for him to use some food to exchange for such a powerful combat partner.

When the giant dragon heard Copperfield's words, it pretended to struggle for a moment, showing that it was very difficult for it to accept Copperfield's conditions.

In reality, the dragon's main goal was still to obtain Copperfield's fire-type soul power purity secret. As for when Copperfield would leave, it really didn't matter.

After all, he wasn't a gluttonous dragon.

After thinking for a moment, he pretended to agree with great difficulty.

After a moment of hesitation.

"My name is Doragon."

Hearing this, Copperfield was a little surprised. This dragon was actually quite polite, so he replied indifferently.

"Copperfield."

"Why don't you come out of the cave and hunt magical beasts yourself?"

"The magical beasts that I can hunt won't be too big."

Copperfield continued, "I can cook for you, but I don't know what you like to eat. You can prepare the ingredients yourself."

Doragon was in a dilemma. He thought about the temptation of the delicious food from before and looked at the sky above him.

Copperfield was helpless. He decided to stop teasing the dragon that did not seem to have a good brain.

"The thunderstorms in the sky will not strike at will. It's still safe for the time being."

"News... I heard it from the human territory outside the Magical Beasts Mountain Range."

Doragon heard this and hesitated for a while. After a fierce struggle in his heart, he slowly pushed his huge body out of the cave.

This human named Copperfield had never harbored any killing intent towards him. There was no need for him to deliberately lie to him.

He stayed outside the cave for a while doubtfully. Looking at Doragon's posture, it was clear that he would immediately burrow back into his nest if it spotted anything off.

In the end, after looking at the thunderclouds in the sky, there were indeed no strange movements.

Only then did Doragon completely relax.

His body, which had been trembling on the ground, suddenly stood up. There was no longer any fear in his eyes. It seemed that Doragon had finally found the dignity of the Dragon race at this moment.

Doragon saw that the thundercloud not moving at all. He changed his amiable appearance and said to Copperfield.

"Are you going to prepare a meal for this king now?"

Upon hearing this, Copperfield raised his brows as the sound of a harmonica rang out.

Nameless appeared beside Copperfield.

Two waves of soul power that were filled with an ominous aura pressed towards Doragon.

"?"

"How did your soul power increase so quickly?"

"Your aura wasn't like this this morning!"
