New law of Beast Taming

"E-Everyone, run away. The drake is about to break free. We need to escape it if we do not want to die by its poison."

That single line caused chaos to erupt inside the hall. Everyone tried to run away but no one knew where they were going. It was worse than a panic-induced public attack.

Amane watched it all happen briefly before her common sense snapped her back into reality. She clutched her head and decided to take care of her people before something even worse than a panic attack could happen.

"Everyone, listen to me."

Amane spoke at a moderate volume but no one was willing to stop and listen to her. These people were ignoring Amane in their panic-induced state. And that was not going to sit well with Amane here.

"EVERYONE! CALM! DOWN! RIGHT! NOW!"

Of course, Amane's words were accompanied by a loud noise. It was finally enough to make people stop and listen to what she had to say.

"Stop panicking like this and running around like morons. The gate to get out of this building is behind me, so use it. Also, someone, go and put a barrier around the poison drake's room. I will take care of things from here."

Amane ordered this in a relatively calm voice. Her confidence and leadership finally caused everyone to look at her with confidence.

All her workers were willing to leave this situation in Amane's hands.

"A-Alright boss. We shall do as you have ordered."

One of her workers hurried up and brought the barrier maker. It was the only way for these low-leveled workers to ensure the beasts did not harm them.

A barrier maker was not a tool that was often used in Amane's days. And it had seen limited usage ever since she had taken over the family as well.

"Hurry up and use it. I will go inside and take care of this drake for you."

Amane assured the servants and they looked satisfied. But some had a worried expression on their faces as well. It seemed like not everyone had confidence in Amane and her abilities.

"M-Miss, are you sure this will be alright? I know you are good, but this is still a poison drake. You can lose your life and-"

Amane had heard enough from the servant.

It was one thing for these servants to be worried about her, but it was another for them to doubt her work.

Amane would need to prove why she was the best beast tamer once more to solidify her position in this family and assure the servants.

"Do not question my decision. Also, someone bring Eclipse here. He will take care of the other beasts if they misbehave. For now, I have a drake to take care of. Moony, time to get to work."

The moon dragon finally raised its head from where it had been lying. The sudden action by a small lizard-like creature making their master's shoulder home was not what the workers expected.

Many cried out in alarm and took a step back in fright as well. But just as many were enchanted by Moony's body and wanted to touch her.

"Do not touch her if you want your fingers to stay intact. Listen, I will be out in about an hour. Have a bath and a nice meal prepared for me."

Amane ordered this and entered the barrier of the poison drake.

She was going to show that thing who was the boss of this place. And then the drake would be under her command as well.

...….

"Look at this place. This kid does not have any restraint or care for their surroundings. It has already destroyed this cage beyond normal usage."

Amane walked into the purplish-looking room without any hesitation. Her mana kept her breath normal and de-toxified any poison that entered her body.

Moony rubbed its scales against Amane's face to further detoxify her skin but there was no need to do that. Still, that action was much appreciated and allowed Amane to feel better.

"You are a good child, Moony. Now, shall we go and find the troublemaker?"

Amane asked and the moon dragon leaned into her touch. They both walked further into the small cage and finally spotted the ball of purple in front of them.

The drake was still in its juvenile stages and its body was as big as a four-person dining table. It was also shorter than Amane currently but its golden eyes were intelligent and suspicious when it looked at Amane.

The purple ball uncurled itself as soon as it noticed Amane walking toward its current location. The growl it gave was one of warning.

The drake was warning Amane not to approach it, or the drake will attack her outright. It was a rather cute gesture in Amane's eyes but it would have been deadly for anyone else.

The drake tried to warn Amane once more, and this time, it even tried to throw a small ball of poison flame toward Amane. But Moony decided to take care of the poison with its flames.

And finally, the poison drake looked at Moony with cautious eyes. It had recognized the main threat in front of him.

Moony also did not like the poison dragon's attitude very much. Moony's growls had reached a threatening ferocity and the poison drake took a step back from Moony.

But the cage had already ended and the poison drake could go nowhere else. It was stuck in the cage and its instincts caused it to lash out at the danger.

Now that Amane had seen the situation, she could tell why the drake was behaving the way it was. The small drake was feeling threatened by this confined space and the human presence.

But it was something Amane could fix very easily.

"Alright, kid. You have thrown enough of a temper tantrum. Now it is time for you to calm down and cooperate with me."

Amane warned the drake not to do something foolish. But the kit was not in a mental state to heed her warning. It still decided to lash out at her at the very last second. And that was enough for Amane to consider it a threat.

The drake tried to get her once more and Amane had enough of its bullshit.

Once the drake was close enough to her, Amane swiftly made her move and managed to catch the drake's neck. Her strength was also enough to force the drake down belly-first on the ground.

Amane was treating this drake how one treated a dog while training it. The drake needed to be shown that it was not the top person on the current food chain.

The drake tried to resist Amane's grip but her strength matched the drake.

What Amane did not account for was the tail of the drake coming to swipe at her. The sudden action of the tail was seen by Amane from the corner of her eyes. And she had to give up the drake's neck for the time being.

...

The drake shook its body to get its bearing back.

Its beady eyes looked at the weird pseudo-drake in front of him. The pseudo-drake felt like a drake in mana and it even behaved like a drake parent, forcing the drake's head down and asserting dominance.

But the physical features and bulk of this person were not like a drake at all. That was why, the poison drake dubbed this person as a pseudo-drake.

The poison drake might be young, but it was intelligent enough to know that it needed to assert dominance. If it did, then maybe it would be allowed to go back home to its parents.

The drake knew it was not of age. It still needed its parents to look after it. And this pseudo-drake will take the poison drake back.

But the only problem was the white-noodle-like thing in front of the poison drake. That creature looked small and weak, but it had combated the poison drake's flames like they were nothing.

Moreover, that noodle-like creature had also shown signs of flame breathing but it was not a drake. Every sense in the poison drake's body was warning it to be careful of this creature. And that warning was pissing the drake off even more.

All the drake wanted to do was to go back home into the wild. But it seemed more and more impossible by the second.

The weird pseudo-drake walked toward the poison drake and it tried to step back. But the noodle-like things' glare rooted the poison drake in its place.

The pseudo drake closed its eyes, waiting for the inevitable end of its life. This creature was going to end the drake's life. That was the law of nature - only the strong survived until the end.

But even after waiting for some time, nothing happened. The poison drake was alright and it even felt free. The heavy chain binding its claw was gone suddenly.

"It is alright. You are free once more."
