Did It Even Call Me Mom Just to Beg for Mercy?

With no classes early in the morning, Silan arrived at Hagrid's Hut early.

Fang was sleeping nearby, twitched its ears and squinted its dog eyes to take a look.

After realizing it was Silan, she turned over and went back to sleep.

Silan has been coming here a lot lately, Fang has gotten used to it.

Before Silan could even enter, he heard noises inside. Hagrid was probably chasing Norbert; his footsteps were like the pounding of a drum.

"Norbert, come here quickly!"

"Listen to me, put that down quickly, that's Unicorn Horn."

"No, you can't touch this!"

Hagrid shouted in a low, booming voice, which mingled with a series of crackling sounds.

You can tell from the sound that Norbert is tearing the house apart again.

Hagrid spoiled Norbert terribly.

Even though Norbert tormented him like this, Hagrid would never punish him. Instead, he prepared plenty of ferret jerky and dried fish for him.

If this continues, Silan is worried that he'll ruin Norbert.

Pushing open the door, Silan frowned at the mess in the small house and waved her wand, casting [Reparo].

The bottles and jars that were knocked to the ground by Norbert returned to their original positions intact.

"Thank you, Silan." Hagrid plopped down on a small stool, panting heavily.

Large bumps had formed on both of his fingers, clearly from Norbert biting them.

"It's so naughty, we've used up all the Dragon Heart Grass."

Silan shook his head. "This isn't just simple mischief; we need to train him more."

"You should do it," Hagrid, somewhat helplessly.

If he could, he really wanted to do it himself, but Norbert wasn't afraid of him at all.

Furthermore, Hagrid couldn't bear to punish Norbert.

This only makes it more unrestrained.

Silan glanced at Norbert, who was flapping its wings on the table, and noticed that it had grown considerably in just one day.

"Norbert," Silan called its name.

"No way." Hagrid waved his hand. "It doesn't respond every time I call it... How... how is this possible?!"

As Hagrid was speaking, he suddenly noticed that Norbert on the table had actually looked at him after hearing Silan's voice.

This startled him.

Norbert on the table bared his teeth at Silan, revealing sharp, long fangs, looking fierce.

Silan wasn't as easy to talk to as Hagrid.

Seeing Norbert bar his teeth, I waved my wand and cast a Levitation Charm on him. After he swung around twice in the air, I threw him onto the table.

"I advise you to behave yourself," Silan warned, slowly sitting down in a chair.

Without the Dragon Heart Grass, Norbert no longer considered them as his own kind. Therefore, even though it was only two days old, it showed fierce hostility.

Silan deliberately didn't take the Dragon Heart Grass.

As Norbert grows older, the effects of the Dragon Heart Grass will be greatly reduced.

Moreover, he had to make Norbert familiar with his scent, so that it would remember him firmly.

Otherwise, it wouldn't be considered domestication.

"What, you're not convinced?"

Noticing Norbert staring warily at the wand in her hand, Silan smiled and said, "Are you afraid of this?"

Silan put the wand away and said, "Now, would you like to try again?"

I'll bite you to death!

Norbert let out a powerful roar, landed on all fours, and flapped his wings vigorously as he charged toward Silan.

As top-tier Magical Creatures, even newborn Dragon possess a strong hunting instinct.

Norbert immediately bit into Silan's neck.

"Commendable courage, but unfortunately too weak."

Silan chuckled softly, snapped his fingers, and a faint, transparent ripple enveloped him.

[Protego]

Norbert crashed into it and was bounced back, slamming onto the table.

"Your teeth are weak, your Dragonfire is feeble, your steps are unsteady, and your reactions are slow. Not a single movement of yours is decent. You dare to bare your teeth at me?"

Silan reached out and grabbed Norbert's tail, rubbed it between her hands to form a ball, threw it into the air, and then tried to catch it with her foot.

She bounced it on her foot a couple of times like a soccer ball, then Silan up and kicked it against the wall.

After snapping his fingers again, Silan used Levitation Charm to send it back onto the table.

Silan tapped the table with her finger and sat down calmly.

"Should we try again?"

Hagrid was standing nearby, stared in disbelief and stammered, "Isn't doing this too much damage to it?"

"Don't worry, Dragon Hide and tough flesh."

Norbert retreated to the edge of the table, still baring his teeth and claws at Silan, spitting out a few Mars from his throat.

"You really don't know how lucky you are," Silan shook her head and laughed, beginning her brainwashing, "These wild dragons outside are either living in the open or becoming raw materials. How can they live as comfortably as you?"

Silan cast another binding spell on Norbert, then slowly took out some Dragon materials that Snape had given him for Christmas from the Mokeskin Pouch and placed them one by one on the table.

"If you don't want to become like this, you'd better behave. I'm not your enemy."

Looking at the identical dragon hearts, horns, and Dragon Blood before him, the deathly aura emanating from his own kind finally instilled fear in Norbert.

It whimpered and curled up into a ball.

"You're still too weak. If you don't want to become like that, you'll have to study and train diligently, and I can teach you."

Silan patiently guided him.

Norbert cautiously peeked out, his still-developing consciousness sensing both Silan's pressure and goodwill.

It lowered its head and called out, "Mommy."

To beg for mercy, he even called out for his mother?

"No, not Mom," Silan corrected. "You should call me Master."

"Listen to me, follow me, and I will make you stronger. Otherwise, you will become like the material on the table. Understand?"

Norbert bowed his head in submission to him.

"Understood, Master."

"That's good. I'll take charge of training you from now on."

[Silver Tongue: Proficiency +1]

This surprised Silan somewhat, as it turned out that [Silver Tongue] only worked when he was lying.

Right now, he's just having a "friendly exchange" with Norbert.

How could it go up?

However, Silan quickly figured it out.

Norbert must have been in awe of the power he had just displayed.

Once you identify yourself as the Master, your [leadership qualities] will take effect.

However, we cannot be careless. Young dragons are easy to tame, but evil dragons are difficult to subdue. We still need to strengthen moral education.

Silan thought to himself that he still needed to intensify the brainwashing and train Norbert to become a model Dragon.

Hagrid, who witnessed the entire scene, was so astonished he couldn't stop smiling.

"Silan, you can actually talk to Dragon?!" Hagrid looked at Silan with great envy.

He had never heard of any wizard having such an ability; even Newt had to rely on various physical gestures to communicate with animals.

But he clearly saw that Silan was speaking normally, yet Norbert seemed to understand and became obedient.

It seems they really treat Silan as their Master.

How is that possible?

He had initially thought Silan was just popular with animals, but he never expected Silan to communicate with Magical Creatures so fluently.

This is simply unbelievable.

Seeing Hagrid's eyes bulging out of their sockets, Silan smiled nonchalantly, "It's just a tiny, insignificant talent of mine."

"Let's tame the dragon first."
