Tales Of The Mighty Dragonair

Chapter 648 - I Won't Mind Company At My Last Hours



"Phew," Arthur heaved a long sigh of relief, "then it's about to get over… I hope she gets better soon," he honestly said before adding, "can you get inside the garden or it's risky to do so?"

'Ding! I can still control things inside,' the system said, 'Ding! But I refrained from doing that, fearing this might increase the risk over her recovery.'

"Good choice," Arthur nodded weakly before sighing, "so I'm now confined inside a piece of dirt?"

'This ground had strange healing abilities,' the golden dragon said before sighing, 'honestly I thought you are done with and nothing we can do can help.'

"Aren't you a bit pessimistic?" Arthur couldn't help but exclaim in doubt.

'You didn't see yourself,' the golden dragon sighed, 'your entire body was filled with holes, and even your neck was mostly gone. It's a miracle you are still alive.'

"It's good to be alive," Arthur laughed, "alright, can you take some meat and pills for me then?" he said to the system which hesitated before taking out some meat and pills, stuffed them inside his mouth and he only needed to chew.

Yet doing so seemed so tiring and took longer than it was supposed to. Arthur realized how devastated his body was, and he was gladly appreciating the old man's act at the proper time.

If he was left out there with such wounds… it wasn't an exaggeration to say he would die.

Arthur took his time taking the pills and meat yet he didn't feel great as he hoped. "Damn! My body is really in a mess!"

'Ding! Like the golden dragon said it… you are just lucky to be alive.'

"Sigh," Arthur couldn't help but add, "gimme more then."

He stayed inside for an unknown period of time before he finally could control his body. His energy wasn't still fully recovered, but he was sure he wasn't in danger anymore.

"Can you take me back?" he asked, "I've got rewards to reap," he laughed as he wanted to go back and end what he initially started.

'Ding! The fight is already massive and brutal,' the system warned, 'Ding! Are you sure you can sustain it?'

"I need to move fast," he muttered before firmly adding, "I need to add this piece of heaven to the garden."

'I hope that old man can help,' the golden dragon said, 'after all with the absence of Gege and shielding us out, you are totally on your own.'

"Don't worry, just send me back," Arthur clenched his fists to feel strength running through his veins once more.

His body was ejected up slowly before the light of the world replaced darkness and caused blindness to his eyes for a long time.

"Rumble!"

"Rumble!"

"Rumble!"

"What brought you up kid?" the old voice came with sweet laughter, "you aren't needed here anymore."

Arthur started to regain his eyesight slowly and what he saw was a total contrast to the peaceful and prosperous image he had about this world.

"Damn! I didn't imagine the two eggs would be this savage!" he exclaimed in shock while everything around him was filled with holes and depressions like a great war just erupted here.

"You should see the rest by yourself," the old man laughed, "the entire world is covered in scars, deep beautiful scars, hahaha."

"…"

Arthur didn't comment as he knew this wasn't the old man going insane. He was restrained and tortured by being here for this long, and now he could have finally the rest he dreamt of.

But Arthur knew this meant that this world was getting closer to its end.

And this was happening faster than he expected.

"I'm happy for you," Arthur said first before adding, "may I ask about the dimension here? Is it about to be broken?"

"Indeed it is," the old man said, "don't worry, I'll send you out just before this happens."

"I'm not asking about this," Arthur shook his head, "I want to take this world and merge it with my garden."

"This…" the old man seemed to be hesitant, "if the world remained, then I'd also be living and couldn't die!"

"This…" Arthru couldn't help but frown, "isn't there any other way?"

The voice took some minutes before returning to speak again, "If you take your move just before the world crashes to pieces then this might work."

"But…" Arthur paused as the only drawback of this was obvious.

At this time he wouldn't be here, and also if he stayed to the last moment he couldn't pull this feat alone. "I'll need your help… you see my garden's soul is deeply injured and now in slumber."

"I'll gladly accept that," unlike his expectations, the voice laughed in joy, "after all to do so I'll need to consume what's left of my energy to maintain the world pieces intact and not turn into nihility. Like this I can drive them to merge with your garden and at the same time I'll consume what's left in my soul."

"Works best for the two of us," Arthur smiled as this man was about to commit suicide, but he didn't dare to argue with him.

After all living such a life was a real torture he knew it could drive anyone crazy.

If he was in the shoes of the old man, then he wouldn't hesitate to take the same path.

"Alright," the old voice came again, calmer this time, "I can predict that this world is having only a few hours before crashing to pieces. You can rest and train here, but I advise against it."

Just as the words ended, the two battling eggs passed above Arthur's head in the sky above with extreme speed and great momentum.

And the world around was rained heavily by the falling burning meteorites that made Arthur jump at once, hurriedly activating his technique and crushing all those falling on top of his head.

"Nice sword," the old man commended before adding, "that's why I think it's best if you stay back and heal inside that cocoon I made personally for you."

"No, I'd prefer to stay here and train," Arthur didn't like that dark and desolate place, "after all I need to be here at the last moment."

"Suit yourself then," the old voice laughed, "I have only a few hours left before dying and I don't mind some company."
