Tales of The Mighty Dragonair

Just the look at it made Arthur's scalp numb from shock, as he didn't expect to find another monster tide there. He recalled what Madly sent to Omar in his mind, and he was sure she never mentioned monsters, or Omar didn't mention it.

Just as he was trying to understand what was going on, he sensed the presence of humans there. they weren't part of his team, as he knew their aura very well. These humans were strangers, strong as he thought, but not much stronger as he expected.

The strongest in them was like Omar in strength, or even might weaker. Just as Clovert's pet was getting closer, a sound of an evil laugh sounded in Arthur's head, as the voice of that guardian monster echoed in his head:

'Oh, you finally came, I was getting bored already and planned to eat one or two of those kids until you show up.'

Arthur gritted his teeth, as he now understood what happened, or part of it.

'Don't be this mad, it's justice after all. What did you say before? Oh, I was weak, not able to move from my place or touch any one of you, and you will come and kill me, turn me into your inner demon and then kill me once and for all, hahahahaha.'

The sound of that monster greatly irritated Arthur, but he calmed himself, as he knew now he underestimated this monster.

'Don't try to make any stupid move, though your kids are still fighting, but they are fighting the humans, who by the way were very happy to pleadge their allegiance to me, not as stupid and arrogant as you. If you don't surrender to me now, and sacrifice yourself to me, I will order all of them to kill your kids.'

Arthur glanced shortly at the garden, which was now ushered in complete darkness, to appear like a mighty ominous beast looking directly at him, waiting to see how he would respond.

He then looked again towards his friends, as they were, as that monster described, safe, fighting using their monsters as shields, while they were trying to attack the mages who were now surrounding them from all sides, while cornering them towards the only way possible to get out from here, the entrance of this garden.

He then looked at the monsters surrounding his friends, they were, mostly, three and four horned monsters. He now knew why, even after so much time, the monsters attacking the other camp were mainly two horned monsters, with few exceptions of three and four horned monsters.

The situation was bad, as the plan of this monster was clear to Arthur. His friends were now getting closer and closer to the garden entrance, as they were attacked by twenty mages, and behind them that sea of monsters.

'Just surrender, there is no hope for you,' the monster said again, as it seemed quite impatient.

"I will leave something for you here, you know what to do," Arthur said, before turning to look at Clovert in the eye, "Don't Hold Back!"

Arthur then took out a huge pile of explosive rocks, and one pit of fire, the one he used before on the back of Lily's Birdy and Clovert's pet. Just as he did that, he jumped off the back of the flying pet, in a sudden move no one had expected, even that monster.

At this moment, he was slightly off the place of his friends, but he used his leg technique, over and over again, to divert his landing towards his friends.

'It seems you aren't just stupid, but you don't even car…'

The monster's words were interrupted by a very violent and extreme explosion that happened just at the area adjacent to Arthur's friends.

When Arthur jumped down, he took out already ignited explosive rocks and scattered them along the way of his fall. So, this explosion was just the beginning, as much more explosions occurred, one after another, forming a huge and extreme wave shock that even hit Arthur and made his landing ever harder.

But he didn't care! whoever touched his friends had no way to live a single moment after!

His series of explosions was just the start, as Clovert did exactly as Arthur told him, and never held back. At once, the whole space of the forest adjacent to the garden was lit on fire, and all the swarms of monsters there were literally grilled on extreme, violent fire.

This was his retaliation against these monsters, as for the mages, the moment his feet touched the ground, he didn't stop for a moment, as he summoned his rhinoceros, and then vanished from his place, to reappear just behind one of the mages, with a sword in hand inserting it deeply into that mage's neck.

He didn't stop to see the result of his attack, as he moved again, disappearing from the place, and reappearing tens of meters away, cutting the head of another mage.

His fight was brutal, merciless, with no hesitation or moment of pause. He sounded like the sound of death, only heard after death. His appearance and his violent attacks made his friends' moral soar, as they guided their pets to assist him in the fight, while they started to attack using their abilities as well.

They had only three with coupled monsters, but with the presence of such a dominant man, they were able to attack freely, and kill these invincible mages, who started to show fear and distress, and even some pleaded for mercy, but it was too late.

Arthur didn't stop until all of them were killed, in the most brutal way ever. He planned to torture them, but with the presence of such huge monster tide, it was wise to kill them faster.

Once finished, he suddenly disappeared, to reappear just next to the entrance of the garden, as he put his hand on the ground, and smirked loudly towards the garden, towards its monster.

'What are you doing? Finally kneeling to me?' the monster sneered, despite its voice seeming quite shaky.

Arthur sneered back, then laughed, as his hand had touched a long stream of blood flowing towards the garden. He absorbed all the blood inside his ring, and made sure to burn it all.

"Oh, do you think you can trick me? I didn't think I might meet an ancient demon here, what an honor!" Arthur said, amidst his laughs.

'W-W-What?! How the hell did you even know that?!!!'
