Tales of The Mighty Dragonair

Arthur wasn't fazed by her words, as he kept moving forward while turning his head towards that leader, whose face was now lightened with extreme shock. "Stay here and don't try to attack me, or else I will really kill you," he said, in a completely sincere tone that was so calm that made her entire body shiver.

How could he be so collected in front of her brutal master? No one had ever faced her master and managed to stay calm! No one at all!

"So, this is the request you asked from my girl in exchange for your help? What are you? A bloodsucking monster? a vampire? A necromancer?"

His words made that cruel hearted woman frown, while one of her eyebrows was raised expressing her sincere surprise. "How can you know about all that?" she suddenly asked, with much viciousness and interest in him far more than ever before.

"You didn't answer me," he stressed, as he already reached the sea of fire separating him from her. She stood there watching him, as he did the same.

"If you have the ability, then make me confess my secret to you," she muttered with extreme cruelty, "but I doubt you would stand two hits from me, so just don't waste my time and submit to me, tell me all your secrets, and let me quench my thirst from those stupid people's blood after fulfilling the deal with that kid," she said.

This master didn't know a thing about Arthur's true identity. Just from her words alone he was able to deduct her true nature.

'A female vampire, very sexy as usual, with extreme desire to drink a massive amount of blood with the consent of their leader, even lowering her arrogant head to speak with some lowly one as me just because I lead people, hmm…' he thought to himself, and his silence was mistaken by that vampire master to be a sign of him considering her offer.

'So, she is injured, severely injured, and wants to recover?' he muttered, as this discovery by him made him quite calmer. "I will give you a chance to retreat and find another way to heal yourself," he suddenly said, giving her an opportunity to escape here, and him for not using his trump card now.

Her beautiful face frowned when she heard his words, as a tinge of shock appeared for a brief moment there on her face, before disappearing and her usual cruel face resurfaced again. "Who are you?" she suddenly asked, with some vigilance.

She never met anyone outside her tribe that knew about this deep secret, which was something not a common mage would know.

Arthur didn't reply at once, as he took a step forward, entering into the sea of fire, while saying:

"I know of a better way to recover your wounds without the need to kill anyone."

The moment he stepped into the fire, the fire stirred, like it met some sort of triggering factor. What made it strange was the fact all the fire in the place tried to move, gather around the body of Arthur, like they were worshipping him.

He didn't stop at that, as he started to rotate his energy, slightly moving it inside his body. the moment he did that, the aura of his dragonair bloodline appeared, and that vampire master detected it fast.

A natural submission was what she felt, an innate fear inside the depth of her soul, like she was born to be inferior, much inferior to the being in front of her right now.

Subconsciously she took a couple of steps backward until she realized what her body did on its own, and she stopped, with features expressing extreme fear.

"Who the hell are you? From what tribe do you come from?" she asked, but she was met by the gaze of Arthur, and his heavy silence and brutal aura.

"Just retreat, you are no match to me," he bluffed, trying to use the innate fear she was obviously feeling to make her retreat. He then used his enticing push to make her submit, "if you retreat now, I promise I will give you something precious, able to instantly heal all of your wounds," he said.

Her beautiful eyes suddenly shone brightly in red color, before she said:

"I can promise I won't interfere in this conflict, but I won't leave your side, no matter what," she then paused, before adding, "if you lie to me here, and didn't give me what you promise, then I swear I will fight you, even if my death was the cost for that!"

Arthur felt this was a fair trade, as he knew how urgent and stressed an injured vampire would feel. "I agree, come, let's go up there," he said, as he stretched his hand to her. She, hesitantly, glanced at his stretched hand, before she took the steps separating her from him, walking inside the fire without being harmed by her as she took his hand.

He then turned around, with her hand in his, feeling her softness, and went towards the carcass.

When he passed by that leader, who was now completely stunned by this sudden turn in events, he said:

"I like you, so you have my word, if I have to kill all of your mages, then I will, but I won't kill you. You are my woman, despite not knowing that already. Retreating won't help you, as I already sat my gaze upon your lands. Either submit, or I will be forced to kill everyone standing beside you then force you to submit."

He then continued to walk, with the vampire master looking with some pity towards her disciple, saying nothing to her but hoping she would be sane and compromise, before walking behind Arthur, like an obedient child.

Arthur then jumped up towards the carcass, and when the vampire master reached there, she was shocked to see the heavenly treasure there, with all the eggs around it.
