The last 3 days have been hectic for me and Carly. I had a personal extreme crash course on noble etiquette for a literal 24 hours with Koto while Carly had to arrange the house with a tight shtick in 3 days. Surprisingly I passed Koto's little etiquette test on the first try, it left him dazed for a few hours. We hadn't slept for a whole day so I chalked it up to him just being tired. The other two days was spent on 12 hours of rest at the beginning and help from Nicolas on summoning magic. He had a magical affinity for all the elements except for Fire and Spirit but luckily he had bought a book that covered all elemental sommoning practices. On the 3rd day, the day before Duke Salis arrived I was at my makeshift training/shooting range with Nicolas getting ready to try sommoning magic.
"Okay, you got that chant down but all you have todo now is visualize the basic magical pattern and make it manifest with pure elemental energy in the air with the corresponding element or elements. Lets see what other crazy things you can do.." Nicolas lectured me mumbling the last bit.
"Oookay!" After resonding i look at the basic pattern in the book trying my best to remember as clear as possible. These magical patterns had a basic pattern that malted into its own unique version from the casters mana. Luckily after the first manifestation it became like muscle memory, at least as the book said.
I raised my hand and channeled the spirit element into the air. Slowly the mana condensed into a liquid and began to follow the visual outline pattern i had in the front of my mind. Slowly it formed becoming whole and when it was finished the air surrounding the purple glyph began to vibrate to the point it looked like heat was radiating from in it. I felt a large amount of my vast mana pool be sucked out greedily by the glyph. At this point i could release my focus and watch it form fully.
It grew in twice of its size now touching the ground and formed a glyph that looked like a 2d dragon head without horns and a closed jaw staring at a outlined katana all held together with little strings that connected the 2 shapes and under it on the ground a magical circle formed with sigils that made no sense to me. It's aura was domineering like a tyrant that willed to be a ruler and not the ruled. As i watched it finish with a 3 foot diameter magical circle and a 6 foot high crest i heard Nicolas drop to his knees soaked in sweat.
Then the sigil pulsed and a massive creature phase into existence as it seemed to crawl out the back of the summoning crest. It took the shape of a metallic black that gleamed into purple from the sun with the body of a 10 foot tall and 20 foot long dragon with no wings or horns on all four legs. It took its time looking around before snapping its colossal head at me. At the exact moment it felt like a string snaping tight and the opposite side of my end felt angry. Not because of the connection but because it felt unable to do anything. We both felt it and i knew it. The ruler became the ruled. It rose its head to the sky and let out a bellowing screeching roar to the sky before lowering its head staring back and forth at me and Nicolas.
Nicolas began to visually shake and was almost completely white when i made eye contact with him as four words left his mouth in both awe and fear.
"what monster are you?"
I just responded with a warry chuckle and look back at the massive creature that stared at me with a cruel scrutinizing gaze. It puffed a purple electrified haze from it nostrils and slight open its mouth. Its mouth only stayed open while talking making no movements.
"what are you mortal? Ive slept for eons in my home realm waiting to return anywhere. Yet all the times i was brought out i was the master.... not the.. servant. What in the abyssals name are you human?" The massive being spoke with an ancient feminine voice. Her gaze which was curious but still drilled me with holes.
I scratch the back of my head thinking for a moment on how to respond. Eventually i spoke a casually as i could with a soft smile. "The names Seth Lyr Sandmen. I'm just a simple traveler with a unhinged curiosity i would guess?"
The beast lifted its head in the air letting a jubilant laugh out that waft a purple electrified haze out of her maw before finally looking back down at me with a humorous glint. "Very well, keep your secrets mortal. It will be a curious experience if i follow you. If thats your responce to my question i can only imagine the faces other mortals will make. The face of the man next to you is to.... die for. Bwahahaha! Haaa~ My name is Vishala, i am a spirit land dragon, one of the only few left of my kind~~."

5 miles from Seth and Vishala 10 minutes before the sommoning was completed.
James sat inside a carriage with his right and left hand guards along with his advisor. The right hands name is Julian he wore a full suite of light weight steel armor. He had a handle bar mustache with a fade hair style both matching dirty blonde hair with deep dark blue eyes. He always kept a stoic face and sometimes seem to look like he spaced out but was always aware despite the look. His left hands name is Jack. He wore leather armor stainded in black with black outfit underneath with a black half cloak that reached just past the middle of his back with a grey cloth covering his face from the nose down with deep brown eyes. James advisor's name was Hennington. He wore a simple blue suit with a single monicole over his right eye with a clean, smooth face and strawberry blonde hair. James himself had the signature long blue hair left to freely flow with green emerald eyes and a blue goatee. He wore a high end button up shirt and suite pants of a navy blue color with a light weight shoulder guard, braces, and leg gaurds.
The main carriage escorted by 2 other carriages full of Duke Salis's personal guard, one in front and one in back. As James sat in the main carriage he held a letter clenched vigorously in his right hand with anger, his hand shook as he kept trying to squeeze the letter harder and harder. The letter came from another Duke family. The Farshi family was give the Duke Salis family a tough ultimatum for the arranged marriage between Carly Vonray Salis and Ron LeRoss Farshi.
"So the gods help me if Carly made an idiotic choice, that boys head WILL BE ROLLING!!" The Duke spoke with gritted teeth yelling the last bit causing the birds nearby to fly away in a fearful hurry.
"My lord! We are almost there. Please do not stress yourself. It is not good for your health and blinds ones judgemnt. We will know after we meet this Seth. I just hope Lady Carly has not made a mistake on her own judgment." Hennington tryed to console the Duke.
"Haaa... Thank you Hennington, yet again you are right but this whole set of events irritate me beyond belief. I.... I just.. Haaa... Want the best for her. I mean who is he anywa–" James sighed trying to explain his anger to Hennington before he was cut off by a menacing screeching roar. Causing the horses of all 3 carriages to stop and visibly shake with fear unable to move like stone.
James, Hennington, Julian and Jack began to burst with cold sweat as they a sat there in silence. Fear had griped them tightly from and otherworldly sounding creature. After 20 mins the aura of the creature past as if it was a wave crashing against all around it making its indomitable tyrannical presence know with a warning before seemingly and simply fading from existence. At that time James realized this fearful presence was coming from the direction of his daughters estate and began to shout orders to make their way to the estate at all cost. Even ordering then to exhaust the beast of burden till their death if it must. Soon James and his escorts would arrive in a panicked mad dash with panting horses seeking answers and the safety of one women.

After Nicolas gained back his marbles and drinking lots of water Vishala showed us that she could shrink to any size but could not grow any bigger that her true size when she was first summoned. We walked to a side entance and entered the masion. Vishala seemed to like to just lay or siting on the top of my heat as i walked. It also turns out that she his a perma-summon. Meaning she has no need to leave from here and her own home world, Nicolas also mentioned this only happens to about 10% of the summons contracted from anyone in general, a basic finite rule or law. When entering the estate i was met by an extremely worried Carly that crashed into me immediately causing Vishala to jump on top of Nicolas head and me falling to the floor with Carly on top of me crying.
"Waaaaaah... Seth i thought the sommon you called killed you! I knew you would call something strong but whatever you summoned made all staff suddenly become unable to move out of fear. Luckily i could still move but i chose not to because the aura from it was so close. Sniff Sniff... Sniff... A-a-are you okay, my love?" Carly began to rant so i held her close and pat the back of her head, waiting for her to get done.
"Yes, Carly I am okay. Please calm down. Everything is A-okay. If you would, Vishala jump down here by my head so Carly can see you? Carly this is Vishala my summon. She is a Spirit Land Dragon. Vishala this is Carly my lover please treat her with love and kindness and i will have no problems with you." I consoled my crying lover and introduced both together when Vishala had jumped down as i requested.
"Hello mortal, it is nice to meet you! I see you have a clear soul, that is a pleasant sight to behold in itself. As was said I am Vishala, a land spirit dragon. I am looking forward to the people you an your mate will meet. Their expressions at your power will be savory the least! Kekeke~~" Vishala spoke in her ethereal feminine voice with the last part directed at me as she turn to look at me.
There was a silence before both I and Vishala look over at Carly just to see a spaced-out intent gaze on Vishala. Slowly a deep blush creeped on her face as she slowly reached out to pick up Vishala under her two front legs. Vishala dangeled cutely in her hands with what i could best describe as a confused embarrassed look on her scaly face. Soon out of no where Carly squeezed Vishala in between her breast while yelling in a high pitch tone of delight.
"Eeeeiiiikkkkk! She is so fucking adorable! Almost like a real life stuffed teddy bear in the form of an adorable purple land dragon! Just you wait! We will get all sorts of cute clothes for you to wear."
"Ooooh~ Nooooo~ what have i been dragged into!! Please mortal unhand me! If i retaliate against you, master will have my head! I can feel his intent!" Vishala squealed in the form of a muffled plea.
Suddenly Carly looked at me and i swear i saw sparkles in her eyes with the slightest hint of heart shaped pupils. Her words were completely unreserved with Nicolas, Grace, Koto and a few random maids as she spoke.
"Thank you... daddyyy~~" When she utter these words i knew there was bound to be a new round for gossip amongst the staff members.
