Hearing Seron asking, if he was at home, Jason immediately answered.
"Yes, I'm with the Fler's right now, did something happen?"
He was sure that nothing shocking happened because Seron sounded neither enraged, flustered, or anxious, but only hesitant which was why he still asked to be sure.
After hearing that Jason was at home, Seron sighed in relief as he asked with a firm voice.
"Nothing bad happened, it's rather the contrary! The only problem is that I'm somehow in a hurry...do you have time right now, or may I come to you to discuss something?"
Asking this, Jason averted his attention to the Fler's who heard everything as Mark nodded his head saying,
"There is no problem if he comes and it sounds important, so don't bother about us."
Seron heard Mark saying this and quickly thanked him as he hung up the call before the doorbell rang only a moment later.
Noticing this, everyone was astonished, only for Gabriella to chuckle lightly as she said.
"What a cute boy...haha"
Even Mark smiled lightly, while Jason walked towards the door, which he opened where Seron stood looking at him as if he was about to pounce at him.
"Come in!" He quickly said before his friend would pounce at him as he stepped aside.
Taking off his shoes, Seron walked inside the house, where he found the Fler's eating dinner, and he quickly apologized for interrupting their dinner time.
Seeing his polite behavior, Gabriella couldn't help but smile as she reassured him that it was fine and that he could talk with Jason about the important matters.
Hearing this, he quickly grabbed Jason and asked him where his room was.
Being dragged to his own room, he tried to figure out the reason for Seron's behavior, and he was relatively sure that it had something to do with his second soulbond, an earth dragon!
Inside his room, Seron just sat down on the chair that stood close to the bed, where Jason sat down, waiting for his friend to start with his important matter.
However, seeing that Seron turned from his impatience to uncertainty, Jason was forced to start.
"What exactly do you want to talk about, Seron? It has probably something to do with the Earth Dragon that laid an egg, right?"
Hearing this, Seron only nodded his head, before he took a deep breath, as he said
"The situation with the Earth Dragons' is more difficult than we imagined. You probably don't know about this, but they live below Cryo-City nearby the mana vein, where they have enough mana to survive, procreate, and even become stronger until they reach their racial limit..."
Jason's eyes widened when he heard Seron's words…' so these Earth-Dragons are right….below us?' He thought, gulping down his saliva when Seron continued.
"It was roughly a century ago when the first few Sovereigns saved the last Earth-Dragons on Canir before they were almost annihilated by Ancient Behemoths and other strong races that desired the Earth-Dragon's blood which is apparently beneficial for these beasts or something like this.
Obviously, many big clans also wanted to either subdue the Earth-Dragons and force them into a soulbond contract or even kill them to receive valuable ingredients from their carcass.

However, instead of using either of these solutions, the Earth Dragons tried to make a deal with a few big clans, demanding to stay alive, without being forced into a soulbond contract, while at the same time receiving a certain degree of safety from other beasts that might hunt them.
The few big clans accepted this deal, but only under the condition that their offsprings were allowed to be contracted as soulbonds.

Obviously, the earth dragons didn't accept this and would rather die than forcing their own children to submit to a soulbond contract only for them to stay alive.
As such, both sides were somehow forced to find terms everyone found profitable, otherwise, the big clans would just kill the earth dragons, without bothering about their conditions, which they were aware of.
In the end, the Earth Dragons agreed that their offspring could be contracted, as long as they were willing to.
Before hatching, the 'unborn' earth dragons are already able to faintly communicate with their parents, when they're still inside the egg and if they're not completely against the thought of forming a soulbond contract, descendants of the big families who made the deal with the earth dragons were allowed to approach their nest.
This soulbond contract allowed earth dragons to adventure throughout the Canir, next to their new master, and even if they were in a similar situation to being enslaved, they were still more secure and free compared to being forced to live underground in order to stay alive due to the apparent threat from all kinds of lord or even higher ranked beasts that desire their faint dragon bloodline."
Nodding his head, Jason was deep in thoughts as Seron spoke and he found it weird that the earth dragons just remained underground without even bothering to come up, even if it might be dangerous.
'Are they also scared of us humans?' However, thinking about this, Jason felt somewhat disappointed because he always imagined Dragons to be beasts with a lot of pride that didn't allow anyone to suppress them and that they would fight against anyone damaging their pride.
Maybe it was only the Earth Dragons that allowed themselves to be subdued like this, almost as if humans were breeding them underground, as a sudden thought emerged within him.
'If the Ice Dragon, the Drake family patriarch forcefully contracted, acted so repulsive, why are the Earth Dragons so different? Not only is their racial limit a difference of two whole ranks, but their demeanor is also like black and white..completely different….Could the purity of their bloodline or something like that be the reason? Other than that, I can't imagine a reason for Dragons to be so prideless…'
Jason heard a lot about Dragons, whether they were eastern or western dragons like Shane and Dalia called them, but all of them had a few particular things in common.
They were extremely strong compared to their mana core rank, while their affinity was also superior, allowing them to fight even beasts with a stronger mana core rank.
However, from their demeanor, Dragons were labeled as greedy and prideful, which was the reason for Jason to think that the purity of the earth dragons' bloodline might be low or thinned out.
Seron was still not done talking and Jason could only sigh as his friend didn't seem to end his speech.
"Over the last two years, the remaining earth dragons laid five earth dragon eggs, which is more than they laid over the last several decades together! Isn't that amazing?
Nevertheless more surprisingly is that three of them want to form a contract with humans! Right now the Gier family is the first one that is allowed to pick a new soulbond because there is not a single descendant from the Drake family who is able to form a soulbond contract with an earth affinity beast.
As such, I can choose my second soulbond out of three earth dragon eggs! Over the last few days, I already went towards the earth dragons and took a look, but even Till is unable to tell me which one of them is the best choice to pick, while he could only tell me that one of the eggs seems to have slightly lower mana fluctuations, and both of us immediately thought about you!
I don't want to make the wrong decision and wanted to request your help to tell me which earth dragon egg is the best for me to figure out if I should follow my gut feeling, or continue to ponder like I'm currently doing!"
Listening carefully, Jason was glad that his friend finally finished his speech, as he sighed deeply.
There was no reason for him to decline his friend's request, and Jason nodded his head, as he said
"I can definitely help you out, but how long does it take? I have my tournament matches tomorrow early in the morning and have to be back by then"
The tournament itself was not really important, but he also wanted to have his last fight against Greg, which was what really mattered to Jason and also the reason for him to ask Seron this.
"If we take the shaft, one trip to the mana vein will probably take 3 hours and then, we still have to walk for two hours through the tunnels…."
Mumbling this, Seron averted his attention back to Jason as he reluctantly said with disappointment in his voice.
"If you really want to attend the tournament tomorrow, by all means, we can only postpone the trip to the earth dragons to tomorrow after your tournament rounds in the morning"
It was obvious that Seron was disappointed, but he wouldn't just neglect his won wishes to please others as his friendship with Greg was more important to him than Seron's
