Tales of The Mighty Dragonair

"Exactly," the golden dragon said, "here you have the credits to be their boss without many complaining, while back at the academy you are just a mere disciple."

Arthur went to silence, seriously contemplating the golden dragon's words. "Ding! I support this idea," the system suddenly said before adding, "you also need to pass from here before heading towards your city."

"Alright," Arthur nodded before heading directly into the portal, "let's do this."

The next moment he appeared inside his star map where things were calm and steady. He glanced over the increasing number of stars as he muttered, "one for the Amazor clan, and the other one is for the clan my masters defeated, right?"

"Ding! That's right," the system said before adding, "Ding! That's also in addition to a couple more worlds the star map connected to them."

"From that old empire's list of worlds?" he asked.

"Ding! No, they are just new worlds the star map started to explore and link by itself."

Arthur felt curious about this, yet he didn't have time to go and play there. "Soon I'll come here and explore all these worlds," he promised before adding, "after all I need a hundred worlds to be linked here."

He glanced all around before muttering, "When did the star map have a link to my city?"

"Ding! When you asked me to plant three doors before, forget?" the system laughed and Arthur recalled this minor detail before saying, "where is the star then?"

"Ding! The big one on the right."

Arthur easily recognized this star as it was the greatest star there. "Why does it have a bigger size?"

"Ding! It's your capital after all, so it's like those clan's headquarters you crushed before."

"I see," he jumped over the star and the next second he appeared inside his city.

The atmosphere here wasn't as calm as the inside of his star map, as many people were moving right and left while many shouts came from everywhere.

"Ding! Is it war?" Arthur squeezed his eyes while turning to be serious.

"It's a celebration," the system said before adding, "Ding! I can see many lanterns and decorations everywhere in the city."

"A celebration… for what exactly?" he was at a loss for a moment while his system added, "Ding! Just a notice for you, this city changed the last time you saw it."

Arthur took a glance around before suddenly flapping his wings to rise high in the air.

"Cling!"

"Cling!"

"Cling!"

Just as he appeared on top of his city, he was welcomed with a gigantic scene that he didn't expect and these bell sounds ranging everywhere. The city was so vast now, and many new parts appeared here while the walls of the city grew larger and expanded from itself to allow the city to grow.

"They are in… millions?" he muttered while glancing over his city in surprise and pride. "This is my city, mine!" he was excited the next moment, trying to remind himself that this grand place was already his.

"Cling!"

"Cling!"

"Cling!"

"What are all these noises?" Arthur sighed before adding, "are they celebrating from now?"

"Ding! I believe these are warning alarms for your appearance."

"Wow, do they plan to welcome me in arms," he joked.

"Ding! This seems to be the case," the system agreed upon his joke, startling him, "after all you aren't that dark red giant dragon they used to see as a lord."

The words of the system alarmed him of the point he totally neglected. "Damn! I have to hurry and show them myself."

Before he could even finish his words, he heard a sound coming from below while many arrays started to be formed while the wall defenses were activated just below his legs.

"Impressive response," the golden dragon said before laughing, "now it's your job to convince them that you are their lord."

"This is easy," Arthur smiled while watching the incoming streams of people towards him. "Those masters are really energetic," he laughed and his silent roars annoyed the golden dragon and all the pets coming towards here in a grand array.

"Who are you?" Mr. E appeared in front of him while glancing weirdly towards Arthur.

Arthur didn't hurry to respond to him as he waited leisurely until all the masters gathered around him. Their numbers declined more than the last time he saw them. "Lost around twenty?" he said to himself when he noticed their number didn't exceed seventy.

"Answer the question, reptile, or else I'll slain you here."

Arthur turned his gaze towards this strong tone and familiar voice. She was Amanda, and she seemed very dead serious in her words and threats.

"Tsk, you are really a frightening loyal wife," the next moment he canceled his transformation, showing up his true human self before saying these words.

His sudden appearance startled everyone, while he didn't have time to spot their reactions well as the next moment his body started to fall.

"Watch out…" Amanda and Cesile shouted both at the same time while he simply activated the energy again before the slender blue dragon appeared again in front of their eyes.

"Hahahah, I told you, my eyes never failed me before. This man here is the best to match you my dear disciple," Mr. E laughed while Amanda's face instantly turned red as she realized what she did just now was perceived directly by Arthur.

Arthur just smiled before letting his wings stop moving and his body fell gracefully towards the ground.

"Can you…" Cesile was about to ask, yet when she saw him passing through the strong defense barriers like they weren't there, she added, "never mind."

He glanced at her before nodding. He was the lord of this place after all, not just a mere visitor like them. "You know you are right in your advice," Arthur admitted it as the words his golden dragon said were starting to prove their worth now.

As he passed through the defensive barriers, those down below of his team and the leaders of his city understood at once everything.

Just as he landed, Amelia was the first to come towards him. She paused a few meters away from his body while marveling at his new shape. "You… impressive," she couldn't find the words to describe this while Amanda and Cesile both stood on two other sides glancing over his scales, horns, and everything.

"You look smaller," Cesile muttered.

"But much stronger," Amanda said.

"Can you three stop eyeing me like I'm a freak?" he returned to his human form again while sneering. "C'mon, let's go inside," he said, pointing towards the nearby palace of his. "Move the boys back to their stations, and thank them for me. They did brilliantly well in reacting to my sudden appearance."

"You act like you intended all this!!" the golden dragon remarked.

"Ding! Don't bother, he is just a shameless one," the system laughed while Arthur silently sighed.
