Tales Of The Mighty Dragonair
Chapter 198 - Discovering The Link Between This World And Dark Mage SideThe night fell, and once it did, Arthur was interrupted in his thoughts when a bird's wing appeared in front of him. it came from Amelia, as she stated that the villagers who had joined their camp were now restless, asking to go far from the river at night.
Arthur sighed, as it was hard to change the wrong beliefs of people, especially when they had lived their entire lives in fear of them.
"Just retreat to a place where you can see the river, and make them see there was no danger whatsoever from this moment on!"
Arthur sighed again, as he knew his words alone wouldn't be enough to change their minds. Only when they saw the truth with their own eyes, they would start to change, believe him, and not fear the waters at night anymore!
He then continued studying this formation, as there were some complicated things used in it, like runes for example, and drawing on the ground if they wanted to make the formation far stronger.
The variations alone in this formation made him speechless, as he realized his past cultivation world lived in darkness, using the most superficial knowledge of formation thinking, wrongly, they knew everything about it.
A whole new world opened in front Arthur's eyes, and he returned to his old self, a bookworm, reading and memorizing everything. His mind worked with its best capabilities to understand and develop what he was reading.
"Can we have fire?" Lily asked, as the atmosphere here at the top was really cold, and the world was already drowned in the bottom of an ocean of darkness.
"Sure, one moment," Arthur was jolted awake by her words, making him realize the light was long gone, and his eyes were really struggling to read well. He didn't sense that as he was totally immersed in his own thoughts.
The next second he took out a couple of fire pits, and let them over a group of low quality fire ores from the time he first ventured into the forest outside his clan.
The fire ignited, and the place started to get warm. He also took out large amounts of meat, and handed them to her to eat. He then sat in front of the fire, returning to be immersed in his own world again.
The fire in the heart of this dark night was eye catchy, but he wasn't worried as all monsters were currently busy killing each other, falling under the effect of his grand potion.
The night hours passed short on him, very long and boring on Lily, who finally decided to sleep, while missing the warm feathered body of her Birdy.
This experience made her realize how important her pet was, as it wasn't only a friend of her in various adventures, it also helped her a lot in fighting and travelling, something she totally forgot after getting used to.
She decided once everything finished, and it was safe to call her Birdy again, to reward it with a huge meal, and even let it fly alone in the sky for a while, enjoying its free will for a time.
She slept, on the side of Arthur, who was really busy and immersed in studying. He then used another formation to understand the formations even more. When dawn light appeared again, he had already studied three formations, and his mind wasn't as excited as before.
"What is going on here?"
Arthur had noticed something disturbing. At first he was so excited by the new world of knowledge presenting itself here, however later on he started to smell something fishy.
"Dark sword formation… Dark phoenix formation… Dark typhoon formation… three dark formations, and three soul based formations, is this a coincidence?"
He muttered to himself, as all the three formations he studied so far had the name dark in it, and all were based on the soul type attacks!
He hastily took out other formation scrolls to read their names and see how they work.
"Dark shield formation… Dark sand formation… Dark linear formation… Dark spear formation… Dark zone formation… they are all dark formations, and all are based on soul type attacks!"
This was crystal clear to him, and suddenly some hidden pieces of the puzzle started to fall in front of his eyes, getting revealed, pieced perfectly together, and finally he realized the dark secret of this world.
This was a world which had deep ancient connections with those groups who spread the airborne toxin attacking him, also like that assassin who tried to kill him using illusions.
And they were also like the cursed soul of that hideous dragonair of the old, who tried to kill his soul and take over his body.
"So there are dark mages in this world, very specialized in soul type attacks?"
He lacked a lot of information to confirm his own assumptions, but one thing was crystal clear in his mind, this world wasn't recently discovered, instead it had deep relations with the outside world, or to the dark side perhaps.
If this world was taken by force, then the academy expeditions here would be seen as an effort to eradicate any presence of such a dark side. But if the academy didn't obtain it by force, then this world is a great scam, a huge plot and trap acting to serve the hidden benefits and gains of the dark side only, not the academy, not its mages, not surely him.
"Interesting," he smirked, evilly, as he now realized how this world got its hands on such an advanced potion. He also understood why the mindset of these large clans aimed at enslaving others, as this was already the mindset of any villain.
"I have nothing to do with your business here, except that you tried to kill me a couple of times already, and currently you are standing in front of my path to enter the academy, so…" Arthur sneered as he muttered to the open air, as if he was speaking to everyone.
