Tales of The Mighty Dragonair

"What do you plan on doing to them?" the crow asked while glancing over the huge number of disciples who were numbered in tens of thousands.

"I'll take them under my wing," Arthur simply answered.

"Not afraid of their betrayal later on?" Amera asked with much interest.

"In the future the entire world will be ruled by me," Arthur simply stated what he saw as a mere truth, "they won't find anyone to serve by their betrayal. Besides…" he paused as he glanced over the three teams of these forces, "I have you watching my back."

"Tsk, he is already acting like those stingy dragonairs," Amera laughed while Arthur only smiled warmly to her as he said:

"If you give me the chance you'll know I'm not that stingy at all."

"Humph, keep dreaming boy," Amera sneered before Doaf finally spoke:

"This army seemed quite strong and prepared to do something."

"Sigh, they were aiming to crush my city," Arthur sighed while shaking off his head, "so I decided to come and pay there's a visit first."

"Yeah, he is much like those dragonairs," the crow laughed before adding, "I'm waiting to see how you will do against those old folks up there."

"I promise to keep you amused," Arthur laughed, "now go back and wait for the next fight."

"You are going to attack another academy?" Doaf speechlessly asked.

"There are four around here," Arthur simply said, "one down and I have time to crush two more."

"And the last one?" Amera amusingly asked.

"I'll keep it to train my troops back at the city," Arthur evilly grinned and his answer made the three laugh wholeheartedly.

After he took everyone inside, he turned towards his three girls who looked quite astonished in his ability to pull such a victory despite all the odds.

"This plan of yours… is impressive," Sara admitted while smiling faintly.

"I got to fight to my heart's content," Tina laughed before adding, "anymore fights?"

"We won't have anything but wars for the time being," Arthur laughed before turning around and headed towards a certain direction, "c'mon, the second academy is just half a day fly from here."

"We are going against another academy?" the queen said in such an excited tone, "oh how much I love you now."

Everyone laughed as they flew towards the direction Arthur memorized in his mind before setting off here. In his plans he wanted to devastate two academies and now he could topple more if he wanted.

"If the second war is as easy as this one then we can hit the third academy before the war," he muttered while thinking deeply about his odds here.

He wanted to decrease the number of hostiles reaching the walls of his city. The flight took roughly ten hours from them while he had to leave sooner and fly faster as he wanted to crush the third academy in time.

Just as he arrived at the second academy he was met with more prepared walls and towers. They were filled with disciples and masters, flying monsters everywhere and the entire academy had its defensive shield activated.

"They are quite prepared for me," he laughed before taking the pillar he once made and then he threw it towards the shield, "let's say how you will do against my thing."

He didn't hesitate to activate the array using his arrows. The pillar did the usual and punched a hole inside the shield, damaging many towers and a great part of the wall.

"Come forth my dragons," Arthur excitedly summoned his dragon legion and the next thing happened was a brutal war of few bullying many with the large disparity in strength.

"Another shield?" just as he passed an hour inside he met another shield blocking his path. "Are they trying to delay me? Is their army coming soon?"

This wasn't even a bad news in the slightest for him, instead it was a good news. "This way I can shorten the time needed to conquer this place," he laughed while excitedly taking out his array and started to hit the pillar with his arrows once more.

"Another shield? The main army is drawing near no doubt," he was astonished to see another shield just half an hour after crushing the second one.

And then he met another shield, and another until in four hours he finally heard the shouts of war coming from far.

"They finally arrived," he was much thrilled by this as he moved at once towards the walls, leaving the rest of the academy intact. "My war isn't against you here," he muttered while feeling how much lucky those inside the shields were.

As he drew near the walls he spotted a grand army drawing fast towards the academy. "Yeah, it's them," he laughed while he moved his gaze to spot a larger number of higher realm fighters in this army.

"Strange," he thought to himself, "this number seemed double the past number of outsiders. Did they have more reinforcements or they did something else?"

He didn't know what was going on but this didn't stop him from summoning his three helpers.

And at this moment the three girls were already inside the academy attacking everyone and having less fun as the shields stood erect between them and many of their prey.

"Can we fight here instead?" the queen hurriedly flew towards him while shouting from far.

"Hahaha, feel free to do whatever you like," he was in a good mood and he let the three girls join the current massacre.

His army of dragons were unstoppable, and alongside him, the three girls, and his helpers no one managed to stop them at all.

"It's strange," he muttered, "this army looked more grandiose than the first one."

'I think this isn't just one army,' the golden dragon said, 'there are two types of monsters here.'

"Do you mean they brought the other army as well?" Arthur was happier by this thought.

'Or they brought the three armies together to crush you here,' the golden dragon said another possibility.

"I doubt that," Arthur shook his head, "the third academy is just one day's flight away from here but the fourth lies on the opposite side from this place. I doubt the forth academy would be so generous and come all this way to here to save others."

'I'm with master,' Gege said, 'the fourth academy would ditch others and head directly towards the city.'

"Good point indeed," Arthur smiled before adding, "that means my city is going to face the next challenge sooner than planned."

'Ding! Are you nervous?'

"Me?" Arthur suddenly laughed before adding, "This isn't bad. After all those new recruiters need some training to get stronger."

'Ding! And the losses will be high.'

"This war," Arthur simply shrugged, "casualties happen in any war nonetheless."

'Good mindset,' the golden dragon said, 'try to wrap things here fast then as there are those higher realm fighters in that army.'

"Oops," Arthur muttered, "I forgot about them."

He had a sudden worry over his city and mages there. If the opposite army was simply made of these weaklings then he wouldn't concern himself much about it.

But he totally forgot about those coming from higher realms. Those would be enough to crush a hundred of his city and forces without breaking a sweat.

"Summon those new surrendered forces," Arthur suddenly said, "it's time to face an army with another."
