Dragon Master: The SSS-Ranked School Belle Asked Me To Contract Her-Chapter 196 : I Want It All

Rain sneaked inside a small hole in the slope, her petite body easily fitting in the small shape. Her pointy tail waved behind her, balancing her in her great speed.

In the past one year, she had not devoured many things as Veer had advised her to follow a certain path, which halted her growth but not too much since she could still grow normally like others.

Her hunger was as prominent as always, but it did make her body plump and think from just right places. She was actually quite happy with the progress, as she didn't want to become obese and look even more bad...with her face.

Of course, with all that food and the hunts she did, she had improved a lot and was close to breaking through to the Master Stage.

She had never imagined something like this was possible for her. She was probably one of the few people who had no worries at all.

Rain was spending her time with her friends, fighting alongside them and becoming stronger. There was also her boss, Veer.

All of those factors allowed her to fight even the worst possible situations and be happy with it.

'Hmm, I wonder where she is?'

They had taken an underground cave system for their hideout, so sometimes locating each other got hard. But she had her power of smell so she let it guide her.

After a few minutes of searching, she ended up before a underground stream of water. It was shallow, but deep to house fishes.

She stopped and stared at the woman sitting across the stream. A young woman with messy black hair, as if cut randomly, with a circular spectacles on her green eyes.

She wore simple white tunic, which gave away her enticing, athletic build. Honestly, if she wasn't Elara, her boss, Rain would have scratched her in jealousy.

'Boss seem to love her figure too...'

Shaking those useless thoughts away, Rain went closer to her and found her busy in making something. Sparks of light were flowing around her, while she herself had closed her eyes.

The sparks hovered around her, harmless and just to illuminate the area. But Rain doubted their function was so simple. So, she didn't disturb her and waited.

After almost a minute, Elara sighed, stretched her fist and clenched her fist. All the sparks of incandescent light around her gathered into her fist, as if being sucked away by something powerful.

*Boom*

Rain flinched, hearing the sound of explosion from Elara's fist as smoke came out of them. The short haired girl again sighed and opened her eyes.

"Rain? When did you come?"

Elara asked in surprise, as she hadn't even sensed her even through her Rune Formation. It was a good one from Aurora and she was sure even Masters couldn't enter it without alert...

Rain seemed confused, before saying, "I didn't encounter anything... anyways, I have something to report from Boss."

Looking at her wide smile, Elara was left speechless, 'No way my Rune Formation is flawed. This girl is just getting more and more dangerous. Worthy of having S-Rank Aspect.'

Shaking her head, she asked, "What happened?"

"Nothing much. It's just that Boss Aurora found three people from our Academy and then Boss saved them," Rain reported, as she jumped over the stream.

"So, basically we are getting three newbies?" Elara nodded. "I hope they aren't woman though. Actually, never mind. It's for better."

"Hmm? Why?" Rain asked in geniune confusion.

Elara stared at her and realised something. They were completely alone and she could finally talk some sense in this stupid subordinates of Veer and of course, her friend.

"My dear Rain, come sit and let's have a chat, shall we?" Elara grinned and asked, throwing her arm over the petite woman's shoulder. "I have some special Alcohol too."

"Really?" Rain's eyes glistened hearing that, but still finding the situation weird, she asked. "But what is it that you want to talk about?"

"Tell me, Rain, why should we allow woman near Veer?" Elara asked. "Given his charm, which is already getting over the top, don't you think those woman will fall hard for him?"

"Of course, Boss is that awesome so it's a given. But why are you asking me that?" Rain asked, trying to snatch alcohol bottle from Elara's hand.

"Hmm, so you're fine with him having a harem of women around him?" Elara asked, smiling.

Rain stiffened at that, but she didn't let it snow, as she asked, "If they make Boss happy, then what's the problem? Beside, you should ask this question to Boss Aurora, not me. I'm just his subordinate, after all."

"I mean, think about it. If he gets more woman, given his character, he would pay more attention to them, give his love to them and dot on them. He would give his quality time to them. They would laugh together..."

The more Elara spoke, the uglier Rain's face Became. Still, she didn't speak anything. It wasn't her place to say anything in matters of her Boss.

'Its working. Little girl, don't think I can't see your true feelings,' Elara smiled and continued, "But time isn't unlimited, right? Since he will spend more time with all of his woman, then he would give very little time to his subordinates. Maybe he would just meet them once in a while, I mean once in a few days to console them and then give them further orders."

She patted Rain's back, sensing it shivering, "Will you like that situation, where you can't even meet your Boss? He won't smile at you, he won't talk to you..."

"NOO!!" Rain screamed, as she couldn't hear more of it. "No, it won't happen. Boss will never leave me."

"And why would he not? What are you to him? Just a subordinate, a powerful one but still a subordinate," Elara smiled. "You know, he's gonna be the Elf Emperor, the being controlling a whole continent, you think he will lack subordinates like you? Think about it for a moment, my dear Rain."

Rain couldn't even hear any longer, as her mind was playing the scenarios according to what Elara told her. She was absolutely right.

Rain was nothing but a subordinate of Veer, so why would he pay attention to her when he would have a whole harem of beautiful woman?

Who was she, anyways?

She didn't want to imagine that future. A future where Veer would just smile at her because she's his subordinates. It was a cruel world to her.

"N-No, he will never do that. He's the only one who saw me as a person, not a monster. He's a kind man, he won't throw me away." Rain muttered, trying to console herself.

"He's a kind man, true. But he's kind to everyone, so what's new about it?" Elara asked. "Even if there was someone else in your place, he would have done the same. He's just that kind and honestly, I hate him for that. He puts others above his own life, as if his life doesn't matter."

Elara scoffed at herself, as she was letting out her own feelings too. Then, she cast a glance at Rain and found her looking down at the ground with a flat look on her face.

"You're right. He's a kind man and deserves those woman...."

Elara's jaw almost dropped to the ground, as she thought, 'What the hell! Her self steem is fucking in the hell!'

Her lips twitched, as she gave a tight smack on Rain's back. She shouted, "What the hell you're mumbling on? I was just trying to get your feelings out, not depress you."

"W-What?" Rain stammered, bewildered at her words. Her mind was already in a mess and she could barely understand what she was saying.

The thought of being away from Veer was killing her from inside but she knew it was the only right thing to do.

"Listen carefully, everything I've said till now was to provoke you so that your true feelings come out," Elara said, massaging her head. "I'm sorry about that. I didn't think it would result in such a big reaction from you."

She was cursing herself mentally, for not even having the skills to talk to people properly. She hoped Aurora was there because she was a master of this.

Taking a deep breath, she continued, "I know you like Veer and I wanted you to acknowledge it. That's it!"

Rain was stumped, but she didn't deny her words. She simply lowered her gaze and hugged her knees, burying her face inside.

A muffled voice sounded from there.

"You're right. I love him. I'm obsessed with him. I want him to look at me the same way he looks at you, I want him to hold me while we sleep. I want it all. But I know it's impossible between the two of us."

"Why is that?" Elara asked, even though she knew the answer. 'I really need to work on my communication skills.'
