Tales Of The Mighty Dragonair

Chapter 154 - A Dragon And A Scorpion Against The World



His attacks had already caused great damage, killing many mages coming upwards towards him, but he knew this would be a temporary solution. The same thing that happened in the sky happened here, with many weak mages being sacrificed to scout his fighting style.

After ten minutes, many stronger mages started to climb his mountain, and they weren't much affected by his attacks. Among them, he could see monsters summoned like Don, going upwards towards him, with small wounds over their bodies from his fire.

"So, this is the limit of these ores?" he muttered, helplessly shaking his head as he knew the more he threw, the less effect he would gain.

However his attacks managed to disperse the formation of his enemies, making their advance to the top very delayed. He stood there on the peak throwing his explosive ores, targeting any gathering, making them ascend the mountain in separate smaller groups.

As for the aerial battle, Don was doing a great job, hitting them and making them disperse and not gain any foothold on the mountain peak. Though Don couldn't kill many, he wounded most of them already, making their feathers and scales tattered with many wounds.

"It's enough for Don and this battle shall have the next player to appear," Arthur muttered, as he unsummoned Don, taking him back into his tattoo, before taking out his next strong summon, the scorpion queen.

After the last upgrade she had, she was sleeping and resting in his tattoo. He had no chance to witness her new form, and when he took her out, he was surprised to find that she jumped from being a five horned monster into a skull monster, with a crown made out of spikes over her head, and her tail had another one to appear beside it.

The sudden appearance of the scorpion queen with her new huge body made the mages attacking here startle, but Arthur didn't give them any chance to overcome their surprise as he pointed to the aerial monsters and said:

"Attack them if you can."

He didn't know if she could use distant attacks now, but he found no harm in trying. As he expected, as part of her upgrade she got new abilities. Her two tails just got curved, directed its sharp end towards the flying monsters, and then they started to sprout green bolts of toxins towards them!

This was an attack of a very strong and high grade monster, causing any mage hit by it to suffer great damage, plus the toxin weakening effect, many mages started to lose their strength and fell from the sky to heavily hit the ground and die.

Arthur just glanced at that and nodded in content. He knew these flying mages were a nuisance, and now their numbers had been reduced to less than half, and he was sure the scorpion queen would be enough to kill them all.

What remained now was those coming from below. He continued to throw explosive ores towards them, but in more minutes mages started to set foot on his peak.

He knew this was going to happen, but he just hoped he could delay them and buy more time for his scorpion. As they came to the peak, he sneaked a glance inside his heavenly garden, to find that the snake was still sleeping, not finished his transformation yet.

"So, I have to use my own strength at the end."

Though he killed a lot of them, more than two thirds of the mages were still safe, as many were away from the harming explosions of his attacks. He glanced at those coming at him, a group of a hundred mages, growing in size with time by more climbing mages to the top.

They were in their monster form, glaring mockingly at him, with many having grudges against him, as he already killed a lot of their clansmen in this challenge.

Arthur didn't care at all of them, as the next moment he simply kicked a fire pit over the explosive ores he had nearby, causing a massive explosion to erupt, with him in the middle.

Those who were watching this from the outside were speechless as they didn't understand why he did that! he didn't show any strength of his own yet, and doing this action would put him in great risk, as this fire proved already its unworthy effect towards those mages; fire couldn't stop them, or shield him from their attacks.

The next few moments were silent and confusing to everyone, inside and outside the battling stage, but after a few minutes, when the intensity of explosions calmed down, they were speechless to see Arthur standing there, harmless, as if fire wasn't an enemy for him, but a friend caring for him.

"What is going on here?!!" That was the question everyone had at this moment, as they all noticed how the fire acted towards Arthur, acting very docile and gentle to him, trying even to caress his body like an obsessed lover.

As for Arthur he didn't delay any further, as everything was set already and all he needed was to close his eyes, and channel his energy inside his body.

Just as he did so, the whole fire had gone berserk, moving with great speed towards everywhere around him, like a flood flowing from high up the mountain, drowning many mages even on the ground far away in a few moments.

This sudden development was followed by a strange, very terrifying mighty roar that erupted from the heart of this fire.

A dragon had appeared again on these lands, in front of everyone, making all of their hearts palpated from innate fear and shock.

Arthur didn't know how deeply shocked everyone was by his transformation, as dragons were a long lost legend, not seen or heard about for such a long time already.

He didn't know what others were feeling inside them right now, or how Tenshi was now feeling terrified, as he felt Arthur had planted a trap for him, and he just fell into it, simply like an idiot!

As for Rayan, his grin on his face was already from ear to ear, as he was so shocked by what he just saw. He never knew Arthur was such a mighty mage, with such a rare and very terrifying power under his disposal. He now understood why he had such confidence and why he was so daring from before.

As for the clan head, great elder, and the clan esteemed guest, Cesila, they were just silently exchanging silent glances.

Arthur to them was like a gem, a hidden unpolished gem that fell into their lap. It would be stupid to let such a treasure walk by and leave them, and it would be much foolish to make enmity with such a grand figure in the future.

"I want to support that lad," Cesila suddenly said, expressing her desire to adopt Arthur, hurriedly adding him to her side, before other masters in the academy got wind of his news.

"He isn't under our control," Obrim shook his head with some regret, "but he is already a friend to our son, Rayan," he added, while hinting about his demands like a sly old fox.

Cesila understood his meaning, and she just smiled faintly before making up her mind. This was a rare chance, a mere lucky coincidence that made her meet Arthur here, away from the academy, before his star would shine brightly there.

"Sure, why not, I can also add Rayan to my care as well. He is a good lad and I admire his good eyes at his young age," she finally said it, making the face of the great elder, the one who was supporting Rayan, beam with a bright smile over his face.

As for Obrim, he was inwardly celebrating this gain to his clan. For him, he didn't care for an ounce for the ongoing battle between the young generation.. They were the future, and they had to live their days to the fullest, including their struggle between themselves to prove who was better than the others.
