Tales Of The Mighty Dragonair
Chapter 136 - Making A Deal With The Monster"One is to stay here, take the human form, and the other is to ascend up there, and join the dragon clan," the snake explained, before adding, "I think you should know that, isn't that written inside your dragonair holy book?"
Arthur just bitterly smiles, as his holy book was tainted by the greedy sly dragonair master of the old times. "I have nothing to guide me here," he said, while shaking his head in regret.
"Oh, I heard you got wiped out and the survivors got themselves out of here already," the snake said, as he was talking about the old times of the past.
"What if I can help you?" Arthur suddenly said.
"In exchange for what?" the snake asked.
"In exchange of staying here, not leaving this world," Arthur finally stated his own purpose of his offer, "I want you to transform into human and stay by my side," he added.
Of course his initial plan didn't involve that, as he intended to get use of the true dragon this snake would end up to be. But he knew that wasn't possible, for now, as this snake would evolve into a human form, or eventually leave.
At least having another dragon descendant by his side would greatly help him, even provide him with missing pieces of info that he lacked much for now. The offer was easy to fulfill, so he only waited for the response of the snake.
"You want me to stay with you?" the snake asked, as if he heard something absurd.
"Sure, why not?" Arthur chuckled, as he didn't understand why the snake asked him this question.
"If so, then I will stay with you," the snake tone was strangely cheerful, like he was much happier than Arthur by this deal, "Do you know the place of this icy treasure?" the snake asked, as he thought Arthur did this deal knowing the location of an ice treasure nearby.
"I do have it already," Arthur just replied simply like that, before turning around and giving his back to the snake while adding, "just go deep back to the place you were hiding at, and when I finish my business here, you can come and leave with me."
The snake just glanced at him, before nodding, and his huge body suddenly moved with great ease towards the hole of the mountain peak.
The whole talk was done in whispers, so all of the present here couldn't hear a single word at all, since the moment Arthur went into that ring of fire.
For them, Arthur just stood in the fire, and something happened that made that snake change the look and attitude towards him, before the snake finally moved, returning to the hole it came from, and Arthur just turned back to them, simply like that!
"Let's be ready," he suddenly shouted at everyone, awakening them from their daze.
"Is everything alright?" Amelia, who was the nearest one to him, asked the question in everyone's mind right now.
"Sure, the snake won't interfere in our business here," he said, as if he was stating some simple truth.
"Are you sure?" Noura suddenly jumped in, "that monster is known for its high intelligence and great wickedness. It's very hard to deal with, even for masters from our academy, besides it has no horns, but a skull. This means it has already awakened its supreme ability, and dealing with such a high grade monster is very risky."
Arthur knew she was speaking so sincerely with him, but he also was sure that wasn't the case with him. surely he knew nothing about such a monster, especially with that strange skull in the middle of his head, but that didn't bother him.
The monster was already in his pouch, and Arthur intended to do a servant pack with that snake before giving him the last desired treasure.
He was just playing with the snake, showing him what he desperately needed, and in return he would make that snake more restless and much eager to complete the deal with Arthur.
And at this point, Arthur would force the snake to sign that contract, or else he won't take the last leap to become a real dragon.
"Don't worry," Arthur vaguely replied, while he looked to everyone as he added, "let's get ready, try to take out as many ores as you can from this mountain."
He still had a small amount of ore, but not enough to last them the whole battle. So, it was easy to gather a huge amount of ores before the battle, to use them later.
The small encounter with the snake here had already broken part of the mountain, so he left them to collect ores from the peak, and he went down there with Lily to collect the huge chunk that fell off not long ago.
When he descended there, he found that piece of the mountain was much bigger than he initially thought. When it fell on the ground, it smashed many parts along its way, making a huge pile of ores ready to be collected for Arthur, who wasn't polite and took them all.
When he finished, he was excited to find that his stock of ores had been replenished, and even doubled! He was in a good mood now, and so he made Lily take a tour around the huge mountain, collecting other loose parts of it, or fallen rocks.
This took quite some time, nearly two hours, to finish. When he ascended the top again, he found another pile, smaller in comparison to what he already gathered, waiting for him there.
He didn't take these, as he intended to turn them all into explosive ores. He poured his normal explosive oils over them, and then used normal robes Madly and others had prepared from before, and the explosive ores were ready for use.
"Let's start," he shouted on others, while he put his hand on the ground and let the old familiar carcass appear again. the moment it came out, the whole world ushered in complete silence, before mighty roars came from many distances away from them.
From the shape of it, this monster tide seemed to be far greater than before.. Arthur wasn't feeling any stress at all, as he knew his mages here would be able to fight this monster tide back.
