Even the shade of a predator was mighty enough to insert fear deeply in the souls of those watching him! so, these silent long minutes where he or his two monsters didn't attack went on down below like long decades!
It started from those remaining alive in front of the town, as they laid down their weapons, knelt deeply to the ground, expressing their desire to surrender. This sudden and logical move started to spread to most, and only a handful groups of those warriors just turned around, and started to flee, thinking wrongly they could do that!
Arthur mockingly glanced at these running rats and roared. The next minute he started chasing them, using his mighty fire attacks to kill one group after another.
Despite they were far away from each other, that was in the ground terms, where trees and terrain stood as an obstacle for anyone to chase them all.
However to Arthur, who was now flying freely in the sky, it was an easy feat to pull. Flying from extreme east to west, from the distant north to south went smoothly in a very short minutes for him, and all he needed to do was to channel his energy during his chase, and rain his deadly punishment over their heads.
This final merciless act of Arthur made it clear to everyone here, submit or die! This was an easy choice to make, as they all kept their head down, and only lamented their greedy leaders for their ego and greed even when they were given a chance to surrender and live.
Arthur then flew a couple of minutes moreover the top of their heads, making them much more terrified even to breathe! He didn't do this to terrorize them even more, but to waste the remaining couple of minutes in his transformation time to make sure of his assumptions.
And these assumptions were proven to be right!
He passed his past limit easily and without feeling any signs of returning to humans, so after a couple more minutes, he descended to the ground, standing over the town main gate, hugging the two small towers on both sides of it with his wings, and then started to cancel his transformation.
He was getting ready for the severe backlash from doing so, but strangely, and for his good fortune, no weakness happened. He marveled this as he knew he was currently not forcing his transformation anymore, and his new evolved body could now sustain his transformation without the annoying weak state.
He smiled, grinning from ear to ear for such good news. His smile, despite coming in human form, was represented in the warriors around him like a very brutal and vicious one.
Their bodies even shook from terror, feeling he would kill them all in the next second.
However what he did next made them really better, despite not fully trusting his side at all!
"Listen up, from this moment on you are going to be the slaves of my family, serve me well and I won't mistreat you. Disobey me and I won't hesitate to kill you and your entire family. All warriors gather up here, and all the people inside, hear me out, take everything you have here and move out in less than one hour. You all are going back with me towards my city."
His words were harsh, but not harsher than that painful death they all saw with their own eyes. So the moment he finished speaking, everyone, literally everyone moved to do as they were told.
In less than half an hour, over one hundred thousands stood behind Arthur, moving through the forest, heading straight towards the second army and his own subjects and slaves.
When he moved into the location of the second town, he was astonished to see another one hundred thousand villagers waiting for him there, ready to march out.
News really travelled fast in this world! he just shook his head, accepted those new slaves into his large march, and headed straight towards the next location.
When he met with Lily, she was very shocked by the large thick long march of people that stretched to the end of the world behind him. Arthur was walking up front, with the company of over thirty thousand warriors. As for his two pets, they were marching at the rear, guarding against anyone having a funny idea of escaping.
However, everyone had already lost the will to fight anymore. The vivid picture of Arthur's huge dragon and his deadly fire attack was still lingering inside their minds, making them all give up on any idea of escaping.
"We will go straight to the city, then we will come here again to take the rest of the villages and towns."
Arthur said to Lily, who just smiled and nodded. She knew this huge number of people gained from this world amassed to above three hundred and fifty thousand villagers, a very astonishing number that might cause trouble if left unattended with huge mighty force.
She didn't know that fear was already enough to control everyone, and Arthur didn't decide to return home now except he wanted all these hands to work into building his city.
The march took roughly ten hours, and during this they met some villages along the road. Arthur didn't plan to annex them now, but they opened the gates of their villages, and joined willingly to his great march, adding more people to it.
Arthur just glanced at this and smiled, fear was always the right weapon to gain benefits anywhere, and anytime!
Arthur already sent a word head up to Amelia to be ready with others to welcome this huge batch of workers. He explained some were mere citizens, but most were slaves, despite having no intention in making any difference between the two in his city.
He wasn't a fan of slavery after all, but he needed to set up an example so everyone wouldn't betray him, and his future expeditions would go much smoother.
