Tales Of The Mighty Dragonair
Chapter 135 - Exposing The Scheme Of The MonsterArthur didn't know why such a master with a mighty monster would seek to negotiate with him, but he decided to keep on with him for this time, until his hunch would be verified.
"We are here to hunt normal monsters," Arthur said.
"Using my treasure then?" the hidden master asked, "Or you came here not knowing about my treasure?" he added, which made Arthur feel more doubt.
"We didn't know," Arthur replied.
"So, you just will work on your business, without interfering in mine?"
This made Arthur much more doubtful, and he didn't reply with words, but he took out nearly most of the ores he had, poured oil on them, before throwing them all towards the fire raging in front of him.
This amount of ores was enough to cause a massive explosion, with a mighty shock wave that managed to push away the white smoke, clearing the vision in front of him and the others.
What welcomed them was a strange shaped monster, with no master there at all!
"As I suspected," Arthur smiled, evilly, as he doubted the intentions of that monster when it used the master voice to negotiate, trying to appear magnanimous, and avoiding clashing with them!
The monster was a huge snake, with a length exceeding five hundred meters at least. The snake body had a diameter in tens of meters, making its external appearance scary.
The snake had thin long scales, looking like long spears, made all of semi translucent blue color. Its head was unique, with a skull of a human residing over its centre head, which was massive enough to be longer than fifty meters alone!
A tall, and forked tongue appeared every second, coming in and out its strong long jaw, with four pairs of long curved fangs appearing from the upper and lower jaws.
Its tail ended up dividing into six ends, with each having a feather in its end.
The moment it appeared, everyone gasped of terror, while the face of Noura changed as she muttered:
"It's the feathered snake, the descendant of a legendary feathered dragon!"
Her words added more fear to everyone, but not to Arthur, who just glanced at this monster like he was glancing at a weak snake, not this massive mighty looking one.
"Oh, you know of me, I'm flattered," the snake spoke into their minds with the same tone of that middle aged man.
"Are you a dragon descendant?" Arthur suddenly spoke up, as he walked directly towards the monster, not fearing it.
"You are smart, and courageous to come towards me without fearing death!" The snake spoke with a playful tone that didn't suit the sound of the middle aged man it was mimicking.
The huge head of that snake rose up, tens of meters in the air, to form another peak of the mountain itself. The sight of it made everyone's heart shudder, but Arthur kept moving, slowly and steadily, to the front as he asked again:
"Are you a dragon descendant?"
The snake looked in a weird way towards this mage who was walking step by step towards him, asking him about his relation to dragons.
"Sure, why do you ask? Having some grievances with dragons?"
"No, not grievances, but…" Arthur paused, as he entered the area of fire. The moment his feet stepped in, the fire around him got sudden changes, as they were docile to him, strangely trying to come near his body, and hug him.
"Oh, interesting," the snake muttered, before another change happened.
Arthur started to channel his energy. He didn't stimulate his energy fast, but slowly, making it circulate smoothly inside his blood vessels. The moment he did so, the fire around him changed, as they went berserk all of sudden.
The next moment, his body emanated an aura, a certain type of aura that not many could discern, but monsters could. The eyes of that snake got opened widely when it sensed his aura, and the next moment Arthur quieted down his energy, making all these changes subside, with the fire returning docile once more.
"You…" the snake was about to speak about his identity, with a trembling shocking tone, but Arthur was faster as he hurriedly interrupted the snake, by saying:
"Some things are meant to be hidden."
His words were understood by the snake, which nodded his huge head before asking:
"Do you want my treasure?"
The attitude of this sneaky snake changed, as he knew he couldn't trick Arthur, or even beat him. The snake had already ingested the treasure, and was now in the period of recuperation, waiting for his body to transform and evolve.
It was the most dangerous moment at all, as his strength would be fluctuating, mainly greatly weakened, with any fight to erupt and he over used his energy to make him suffer a backlash, or even a failure in evolution.
Arthur knew this, and that was one of the reasons that made him confidently walk towards the monster. He also had another reason to make him this calm when dealing with such a dreadful monster.
"No, I don't crave for your treasure," Arthur simply shook his head, while adding, "I want to know if your evolution to a dragon is complete or not."
The snake looked at him for quite a long time, before speaking again, and this time he spoke only to Arthur alone.
"I have ingested the treasure already."
"I'm already aware of that."
"But it will take me only halfway," the snake hesitated, before adding, "I have to ingest another ice natured treasure, then my evolution will be completed, and I will have two ways to choose between, two totally different destines for me."
Arthur started to get more interested, as he didn't know what these ways were. For him, he thought this snake would turn into a real dragon, and then both could be friends and travel together in the future, however it seemed he underestimated this evolution process.
"What two destinies?" he curiously asked.
