Arthur didn't speak a single word or ask them to surrender, as he let the queen do whatever she wanted with them. He wanted this battle brutality to be known far and wide, so anyone wouldn't underestimate his offer of peace anymore.
The moment chaos erupted in the ranks of the army, they were already so near from their front lines. Despite the chaos, many arrows were launched to kill them. those coming from the air were smashed easily by the scorpion queen, while those coming horizontally were avoided by the move Arthur pulled before.
The next phase of the fight was pure brutal, one sided massacre!
The queen moved everywhere, where she used her body to kill, her two tails to kill, her long distance poisonous attacks to kill, and even her mouth to kill.
As for Arthur, he stood there, folding his arms in front of his chest, silently observing this massacre like a mighty king eyeing mere slaves.
The thought of touching him started to grow far apart from everyone's imagination, and the only thing that controlled their minds right now was to survive this massacre, to retreat and live inside their town.
However, the next moment Arthur summoned his two horned rhinoceros, as he gave him one order:
"Go inside, kill anyone you see."
He pointed towards the town, and his pet just roared, and then darted directly towards the town. This sudden appearance of such a terrifying monster made everyone freeze.
Even the place they could escape to was blocked right now! they started to lose hope, and suddenly a large number of soldiers let down their arms, knelt on the ground, and screamed asking to surrender, asking for mercy.
"Kill those who are still standing, and let the ones surrendering safely. And you come back here and help."
Arthur recalled his rhinoceros, just meters away from smashing into the town gate. It returned fast, and joined the fun of the queen, making her upset from this interference.
She was already enough to kill everyone, why the need for this weak useless monster then?
As this action enraged her more, she became too brutal towards the remaining resistance. The weird thing was that these soldiers kept fighting until their last breaths, which made Arthur wonder why they were so loyal to die!
"Wait here, I will enter the town now," he said, while leaving the scattered groups of the surrendered soldiers under the watching eyes of the scorpion queen and the rhinoceros.
The town was larger than the village he previously conquered, and when he just entered through the gate that was opened after the surrender wave started, he noticed the warry looks of villagers to him.
He sighed, inwardly, as he had to set an example using them, so future villages and towns would never resist him again.
"Listen up, carry everything you have, from this moment on you are slaves to me, your sons and their sons will be slaves to my family. Any resistance will be met by force, deadly force. So hurry and pack everything, and let's leave."
His words spread over the whole town from mouth to mouth, and in less than one hour, over fifty thousand villagers stood there with grim faces. Arthur didn't wait any longer, as he went outside to the surrendered soldiers.
"Stand up, from this moment forth, you are the slaves of my family. You will fight for my family, and you will follow my orders, and the order of my house, or you will be executed and your own families will be killed."
His harsh words made them all feel panicked, really regretting resisting him. they were numbering three thousand soldiers, as they lost two thousand ones in the past battle.
Arthur then went towards the front, as he met Lily at the place he left her at. She was already waiting for him, as she watched everything that unfolded here. she didn't understand why he treated them with such brutality, but she knew he must have his own reasons.
The travel of foot took much longer than flying over Birdy's back! Arthur was sure that many spying eyes of the surrounding town and villages had already relayed the news.
He didn't rash up the march, especially when he was driving all these villagers, including women and kids. He also wanted to waste some time, so he could spread fear more inside the souls of other towns and villages.
As for his queen and rhinoceros, he left them moving beside him, as an indicator to his desire and readiness to fight at any time!
Arthur was marching towards the nearest village, as it was a simple village like the first one he conquered. The village had small walls, and one wooden simple gate, and in front of this gate a small army stood there, with a group of old looking people at their front.
"Halt!" Arthur shouted when he was one mile away from this village. his large march was enough to give everyone seeing this a general picture of his strength, or else he wouldn't be able to conquer such a town in a very short time, and force all its inhabitants to leave it in such a way!
Arthur then moved alone towards the front, while the group of ten elders moved to meet him. their faces were old, but they had large scars and deep wound marks, giving Arthur the impression this wasn't a simple village at all.
"Greeting lord Willy, we were waiting for you," the oldest one spoke up first, slightly bowing his head.
"A friend or a foe?" Arthur simply asked, without the need to waste any time speaking with them here.
"A friend, surely a friend," the old man hurriedly said, while glancing over the surrendered three thousand warriors behind Arthur. They were enough to devastate his village, and kill all his one thousand warriors easily.
However he knew the deadliest weapon for Arthur wasn't them, but the two huge monsters at the back, especially that large scorpion, with two tails.
"Then bring up everyone and let's hurry with me, I still have many places to conquer."
