Translator: EndlessFantasy Translation Editor: EndlessFantasy Translation
“What angered it!?”
After owning it for more than ten years, Hobrick was able to tell the dragon’s emotions clearly.
“I’m not sure! Has the Five-colored Dragon Core failed?” John and Hobrick quickly rushed to the cage!

‘Legendary rank?’
‘Such a rank exists?’
Locke almost laughed out loud in excitement!
[ Do you wish to use Subjugate on it? ]
‘Use Subjugate!’
Locke’s tone was firm!
Very quickly, the yellow dragon was enveloped in the System’s light!
A strange sound was emitted during the process, and after two minutes, the subjugation process was completed!
[ Congratulations, host! You have successfully Subjugated a dragon! ]
The light vanished, and by the time Locke had regained his sight, the yellow dragon was already prostrating under his feet!
The yellow dragon was very calm and gentle, and it was constantly rubbing Locke’s chin with its forehead.
‘How is this a dragon?’
‘It’s more like a pet dog!’
Locke tried to stroke its body, and the yellow dragon squeaked in happiness.
“Locke! It really was you! Quickly back off! I’ll handle this!”
Hobrick and John rushed in with their Battle Beasts! They were ready to imprison the yellow dragon once more!
However, upon closer inspection, they immediately went speechless!
Locke was throwing a gold bar into the Yellow Dragon’s mouth!
It was a peaceful scene!
“No… No Way…” John was so shocked that he lost his grip on his guns.
Hobrick started blankly at the scene before him.
“Oh? You guys are finally here? Well, you told me to tame this dragon right? It’s done, I’ve kept my promise!” Moreover, as the dragon was personally tamed by the System itself, it would never betray Locke!
“What name should I give you, hmm… How about… Lil’ Dragon! Lil’ Dragon, go ahead and greet them!” Locke had given his new Battle Beast a nickname.
Lil’ Dragon turned around and looked at the other two. It squeaked to show its friendliness.
“Oh my G.o.d… Is this really happening?” Hobrick rubbed his eyes to confirm the sight before his eyes.
After all, the dragon had been a major burden to him over the last ten years!
Throughout this period, he had tried, and repeatedly fail to tame it. However, he could not release it, and he was extremely hesitant to take its life.
It was a burden whose toll had only increased over the years.
It had taken him a long time to recruit some excellent students to a.s.sist him in subduing it.
As such, he did not expect Locke to tame it during the first day of his encounter!
It was nothing short of a miracle.
Hobrick was certain. This was the only time in human history that a human had subdued a dragon in the past 100 years!
He was so excited that he was at a loss at what to do. After falling twice, he rushed up and hugged Locke. “You brat! Splendid work! This is G.o.d’s will! You are the chosen one! Sob, sob, sob…”
John, who had calmed down slightly, looked at this scene with a smile.
He did not go forward to comfort Hobrick.
After all, he was well aware how much pressure Hobrick was under over the past ten years.
‘It’s best to let him all out…’
…
There were only two individuals and one beast in the Divine Cla.s.s’ dining hall.
The yellow dragon was chewing on gold, and occasionally, it would squeak happily at Locke.
Hobrick’s eyes were still filled with disbelief.
After obtaining Locke’s permission, he finally touched the dragon’s body.
“Its scale armor is truly a treasure. No, its entire body is a treasure! Although it’s just an ordinary dragon, you’ve already created a miracle…”
“Oh right, how did you subdue it? Could you tell me? I want to record it so that the future generations can use it…”
Locke was unable to answer the question, as doing so would reveal the existence of his System.
“I heard it calling out to me, and once I touched it, this happened…” Locke took a sip from his drink and made out a random excuse.
Hobrick had never tamed a dragon before, and as such, he had taken Locke’s answer in stride.
Moreover, Locke’s response had only reaffirmed his notion that Locke was the “Chosen one”!
Realizing that Hobrick had already fallen for his excuse, Locke began to think of questions to ask Hobrick.
Back when he was Subjugating the dragon, Locke had learned of Lil’ Dragon’s stats. From there, he had learned the existence of a Legendary Rank..
However, he still knew nothing about the levels in between.
Dragons were clearly outliers when it comes to levels.
They seemed to have an independent system.
“Princ.i.p.al! Since you’ve owned it for more than ten years, you should have some understanding of dragons, right? Can you tell me about their levels and types?”
Hobrick had not been this happy for a long time. He hummed a tune and took out a few bottles of cold beer from the fridge. While chugging it down, he responded, “I’ve written everything I know in the Divine Cla.s.s’ textbook! However, I might as well tell you about it first-hand, since I still recall most of the details…”
Hobrick emptied the contents of his beer bottle.
“Ah! Awesome!”
Locke also took a bottle and drank it.
“It’s impossible to determine how long ago the dragons appeared. At the very least, we know that they’ve existed earlier than us humans! They don’t have any fixed habitats. And based on the rumors I’ve heard…”
“They are divided into the earth rank, the pentacolor rank, the gem rank, the mystic rank, and lastly, the legendary rank…”
“These are the categories that we’ve learned of so far. Should there exist a level beyond the legendary rank, we simply do not know…”
Locke was certain that Lil’ Dragon was of the earth rank.
Hobrick seemed to have seen through Locke’s thoughts, and he hurriedly added, “Don’t be disappointed, kid! Even earth rank dragons are plenty powerful! They’re able to crush even orange quality Battle Beasts effortlessly!”
“Even though you already have three divine rank beasts, As an educator, I should still tell you this! As long as you train this dragon properly, it’s only a matter of time before you become the most outstanding Beastmaster in humanity’s history!”
Hobrick encouraged.
At this moment, John appeared from the kitchen with food in his hands. He also added to Hobrick’s words, “The princ.i.p.al is right. You’re the only Beastmaster who has tamed a dragon-type Battle Beast in the last 100 years. Be proud, and keep up the good work!”
