It is not that Noir doesn't want to sign a contract with Aika, it is the opposite. He wanted to, but the way that he wants to sign a contract with Aika is full of happiness only. Not this way, Yuki manipulated Aika to make a contract with him. This made him angrier at Yuki, but he also knows that he can't do anything about it and just accept the contract.
So, Noir nodded its head. Seeing how excited the little girl is in front of him, there is no way that he could accept the contract now.
"Yey! Thank you so much!" Aika hugged Noir very tightly out of excitement.
"Use this contract. Aika read this carefully on how to do this contract. I know you can do it, I can see that you really want to make a contract with this Dragon and I have already given you the go sign. What you only need now is to make the contract, so do make your contract with Noir." Yuki smiled at her, she then lifted her and kissed her on the forehead to make her feel better.
"I will do my best!" Aika clenched her fist to pump herself up. On the inside, she was very nervous, but after hearing, and what her Mommy did to her. Her words and kiss made her feel better.
"Thank you, Mommy." Aika hugged Yuki's neck.
"I know you can do it." Yuki finally let Aika down. Aika then rushed to Noir who was patiently waiting at the nearby tree where they were previously.
"Noir, come here. We will do the contract now." Aika said after a moment of silence. She first read how to do the contract that Yuki passed to her. It came from Serene.
Serene gave a gift to Yuki that could benefit Aika a lot. The contract that was in Aika's hands is called. Peaceful Soul Contract. It was a contract that is fair for both because if one of the two ever dies, the person with the other contract can still revive the dead person by killing the opponent that killed the person.
The enemy that killed the other one would be chained by the contract so that they are bound by it. If the enemy dies, their soul would be taken and it would be turned into a pill that can heal the dead person to life. The contract would also allow both of them to be much stronger. If the other person gets stronger the other one would also become stronger significantly. The chain that is connected to the enemy will last forever, which also means that the other one could still save the other person. But, if another person kills an enemy other than you, then your partner would die.
"You're confusing me. How does it make the other one stronger?" Yuki asked Serene, she was very confused by it.
"If the stronger one is a Spirit Lord, let's say. The weaker ones would get 5-15% of their original powers. That boost of the buff will last forever as long as the other one stays weaker than the stronger one. But, if they are at the same power, then both of them would get a permanent power growth boost. They would get stronger quickly as long as they are the same in power. I'm not saying in terms of rank though, even if the other person is Spirit Lord, and the other one is a Spirit Guardian, but in terms of strength they are the same. Then the only thing they would get is power growth." Serene explains, and finally, Yuki understands what it means.
"Looks like Aika would get a power boost by making a contract with this Dragon. It's not as bad as I thought." Yuki smiled, as she saw the both of them making the contract.
The contract was very easy to do, they just needed to make their Soul Realm in harmony, so to do that. They need to make their Soul Realm vulnerable for a moment and make it visible. Aika has already learned it while she was studying under Yuki. So it was not a problem for her, as for Noir, it was a basic thing to do.
Their Soul Ream begins to float in front of them and looks at it. Aika begins to chant the words that she needs to say.
"I Aika would pledge my loyalty to my partner Noir forever. We would protect, and care for each other. I would always stay beside Noir, and help him when he is in danger." Aika said the chants that she needed, and when Yuki heard them. She somehow felt an irritation in her heart.
"Somehow this is making me want to kill this Dragon." Yuki cracks her neck, as her piercing cold gaze stays at Noir at all times.
The chant that Aika said was almost like a marriage oath. Yuki feels angered the second she hears what is coming out of Aika's mouth.
Noir also chanted the same words in his heart. When he opened his eyes, he was met with Yuki's icy gaze at him. He shivered when he felt it, it was much colder than before.
"If you ever hurt her. I. Will. Kill. You." Yuki made a slicing neck action as she warned Noir, word by word.
After a few minutes passed, the two Soul Ream began to release some strings, and those strings then began to tangle with each other as time passed. Soon, the making of the contract was done, and Aika was ecstatic.
"Yey. I have my own Beast now. Mommy, did I do good?" Aika runs to Yuki with a huge smile on her face. Her smile seems to brighten up Yuki's mood a lot.
"Yes, it was perfect. You now have Noir as your contracted Beast, you must cherish him, okay? You guys need to help each other." Yuki reminded both of them, but in truth, her gaze didn't leave Noir even for a second.
Noir nodded his head as a sign that he would do his absolute best to stay by Aika's side for a long time.
"Yes, we will help each other. Because when you are with someone, you can do things much easier. Right Mommy?" Aika raised her arms as a sign for Yuki to carry her. Yuki happily obliged and carried Yuki in her arms.
"You are correct. Things would be much easier to do if you have someone by your side. So make a lot of friends along the way, so that you can help each other out. But, if you don't want to, you can always do things by yourself. There is also not a problem with this." Yuki said as she fixed Aika's hair.
"Alone? But, wouldn't that be sad? You will not have someone to talk to." Aika tilted her head to the side cutely and asked her Mommy.
"Well, it will depend on the person if they are going to get lonely or not. Enough of this, go inside and tell the cook to make your favorite food. We will celebrate you getting Noir as your Contracted Beast.
"Thank you, Mommy!" Aika kissed Yuki's cheek, she then carried Noir in her arms before running inside the mansion. Behind her was the nervous Asuka, she was scared that Aika might fall and scratch herself with it.
