Tales of The Mighty Dragonair

Chapter 331: Everything Got Complicated at the Same Time!

"Sigh, I won't tell you anything," the giant beauty said while she kept pushing the sword forward. The attacks Arthur launched managed to weaken the Golam, allowing her sword to move forward.

"You will," Arthur gritted his teeth as he roared while launching more arrows. He wasn't preserving his strength anymore, as he controlled every single arrow he threw towards the Golam.

"Just forget it, you will know everything from your guardian."

"You will be my guardian then!"

"I can't!"

"Why? Am I that ugly to you?"

"Tsk, you are really such an arrogant cultivator!"

"Every cultivator is arrogant!"

"Just drop it already, I won't be your guardian!"

"Give me a reason for that."

"I… I can't be your guardian."

Arthur released more arrows as he roared: "Tell me why!!"

"Because I'm a failure! I failed in my tribulation! Are you happy now!"

Arthur went silent for a moment while he kept releasing his arrows. "If so, then why are you craving for this Golam then?"

"Tsk, this traitor sold his soul already to the dark side. He gave up the mercy of heaven and wasn't content with his fate and failure. I can't allow him to nourish and get stronger on my account! If it came to this, then I would kill and absorb its energy instead."

"Won't that make you stronger?"

"I… I dunno," she seemed hesitant before adding, "when failed you can't grow your strength anymore. My strength… it was taken away… sealed and can't be retrieved."

Arthur felt the bitterness in her tone, yet he also felt some defiance; the old and familiar cultivator stubbornness he once had! "If you can get stronger than this isn't the end of your destiny," he said, before adding, "this might be part of your tribulation."

"Hahaha, you are really funny you know," she bitterly laughed as she couldn't believe how naïve Arthur was.

"Then tell me, if this wasn't your tribulation, then is this mine? Is it possible and logical to face such a giant monster that I can't even run from? C'mon, don't tell me you don't smell the familiar scent of heavens here!!"

The words of Arthur made the body of that giant beauty tremble. "This can't be true, I was told I lost everything and failed!"

"Like any cultivator back at any tribulation; failing means starting over from scratches not giving up! Those giving up are only losers, the only losers."

"Loser?" she muttered, and at this moment even her sword trembled with her shaky hands. "This can't be true! I tried everything, yet failed! my guardian once told me it's futile to attempt this, he can't lie to me."

Arthur didn't know what she meant by a guardian and these words, but he was very familiar with the twists of fate. He had been fooled by this, thinking wrongly he died and was sent here as a coincidence.

Yet everything seemed not coincidental at all! "Listen to me, accept your role as my guardian and let's break these shackles together."

"Why me? you are destined to meet your guardian in the right moment."

Arthur glanced at her sword to find it almost about to crush the last defenses of the Golam. He smiled in content and confidence before saying:

"Because if that guardian wanted to meet me, he or she would have done that already!"

"They wait for you to prove yourself first."

"More than this?" he sneered, "I have already surpassed many obstacles and created many miracles. I'm not the weak, sick boy I once was in this world. my body is strong, my strength is superb, and my ability as a dragonair is sharpened. Even I got a strange voice calling itself a system! I'm far more prepared than you imagine. How can this guardian not show up yet?"

He paused before finally adding his last sentence: "Except if you are my guardian, and we were destined to meet each other here."

"That's… that's impossible! My guardian told me many times that a failed contender is a useless one. My strength was sealed, and I can't even train or use any of my former strength. I can't be your guardian. This can't be!"

Arthur didn't continue to argue with her, as he sensed in her tone the start of accepting what he offered. "Let's kill this Golam first, and you absorb its energy, and then we can discuss this later."

"Sigh, you don't know what is going to happen next."

Arthur felt a bad foreboding coming from her words. "What do you mean?"

"Your enemies summoned this Golam as the last attempt to kill you. Failing in this and they will send a message to their agents in your world."

She didn't add more, and he wasn't that dumb to understand her meaning. "Will I be called to leave this world?"

"Unfortunately, yes, and that's the reason why I offered connecting this city of yours with your star map."

"You know about the star map!"

"It's an old antique tossed here by my guardian."

Arthur didn't quite understand the relation between the two of them, yet he could be certain of her deep pain, anger, and disappointment. He didn't know if that was directed to herself or to the guardian.

"Even if I left here, I would be able to return again."

"Then leave this until next time."

Arthur sent another volley of arrows and then waited. The sword was already touching the skin of that Golam, cutting it and creating a gush of green blood. "It's a date then."

"What?!!" she was startled that even her sword was about to miss the spot except for her rapid reaction to correct its path. "Your dirty mind!" she bellowed angrily, yet Arthur didn't feel true anger in her tone.

"I promise to make this date unforgettable."

"Tsk," she simply ignored him as she tried all her might to insert her sword deeper. "Even after mixing your soul, you still hold the dirty desires of a cultivator. You are really something."

"What do you mean?" he just said that before a sudden and loud rumble occurred. Even the ground of his city trembled like a mighty earthquake hit the land. "Is this from the Golam?" he muttered, but before he could even ascertain the full situation, and in the middle of this long rumble, the Ley Lines underground diagram started to show changes.

"Ding! The changes the pillars made to your city have finished."

"I can see that," Arthur replied while holding his breath from the scene he was seeing right now. The entire city that was vacant with no walls had now shown strange pillars ascending from the ground.

"Where are the pillars?" all the five hundred pillars which were surrounding the city were gone!

"Ding! They are integrated successfully in the city."

"Sigh, I can't then move them now, right?"

"Ding! I told you!"

"Tsk," he glanced at the changes that were occurring at the entire city as he muttered, "I just hope they would benefit my city now and in the future."

"Ding! I can't tell, but after finishing their evolution I will tell you all the details."

"Evolution?!" Arthur remarked before asking, "Were they evolving?"

"Ding! It seems so. I told you this is the first time for me to see this, so I couldn't tell what was going on."

Arthur didn't stress on this point as he was taken with all the changes in his city. The first thing that happened was the glowing of the entire area covered with walls, towers, and gates.

Then small pillars started to rise, like young sprouts, moving up thin at the start, shaky like they were fragile and small.

Then they started to thicken, unite together and form long coherent thick and strong walls with semi-circular surface-like tubes lined together.

Then they started to gain altitude. The previous walls of his city ranged from fifty to one hundred meters. These new walls kept rising, crossing the one hundred margin, and didn't stop until they reached two hundred.

Then the towering walls started to get thickened, moving inside and outside, increasing the broad surface of them.

And thorns started to appear on its outer surface, while stairs appeared on the inner ones.

Just as things seemed to cool down, another rumble occurred and certain places of the walls started to show changes.

They first got themselves separated from the rest of the walls, started to get a fully rounded surface before increasing more in length and width, until they were double the normal walls in width, and exceeding three hundred meters in length.

They were circular, with a smooth outer surface that started to change color from yellow to dark red, resembling the color of the pillars.

"I think… these are the five hundred pillars?" Arthur muttered as he counted more than two hundred, and there was still more.

"Ding! You are correct, they are the pillars after getting evolved."

"I think there are no changes there."

"Ding! Wait until they end the evolution and then I will tell you everything."

"Boom!"

At the same moment a loud explosion occurred coming from the battle between the giant girl and the Golam. "Damn! That Golam is really strong!" Arthur cursed as he noticed the Golam was deeply injured at its shoulders and neck, yet it was still brimming with vitality.

"Ding! The Golam used some strange technique to boost its strength."

"You mean this is going to end soon?"

"Ding! It would after five minutes, yet can we seal it for that time?"

The question of the system was instantly answered by the mighty roars of the Golam. "It's about to break free!" Arthur gritted his teeth, yet before he released more arrows, the Golam disappeared from his location.

"Ding! It's coming!"

"I know already," Arthur felt a great threat, like death knocking on his door.
