"I came, I hovered, I broke in the barrier, and I conquered the two settlements. All these slaves just swore an oath to you and me to serve under our orders, and I just ordered them to work hard, extract all the ores, as I know you are in a hurry to gain the ores for your little city."
"You made them a slave for me and you?" Arthur left everything she said, and focused on this part. She playfully waved her tail, and Arthur just pictured her full curved alluring back moving at this moment , making his heart palpitate. "What, aren't you and me going to mate? You and I are dragons, and you and I are very suited to be together," she then faked an innocent expression, something a dragon with all these scales and fierce features could never pull, but she strangely did, "or you don't like the cute little girl of me?"
Arthur just swallowed his throat, as he tried to push away all the dirty thoughts for now. this would be weird, for two dragons to mate here, in front of the public. It would be more appropriate to hold her soft and curvy body in his arms, instead of all these scales and huge body.
The next second he roared, a very strong and long roar, as to alarm everyone to glance at him, and they all did. The next second he cancelled his transformation, and returned human again.
"Listen up, I'm Willy, your master and this dragon master. From this day forth, you are my subjects, and after finishing from the mine here, I promise to reward you all with what you all deserve, based on your own effort and honest work."
His voice reverberated from his high position to spread over everywhere down below, reaching even the coming warrior army of his. That declaration made Tina pout in discontent, and his warriors to cheer louder from far, as they thought their leader had conquered the whole fort of the enemy alone, and in mere minutes.
As things got to be steady and peaceful here, he didn't need to go for any offense, and all the warriors ready for war had to be used properly. So, he took his bird's wings, sent his orders to his warriors' leaders, making them responsible for supervising for the work here, and only four groups had the task of defending the mine.
"You shouldn't have made them all yours, I wanna some to play with," Tina didn't pass over this point even after an hour. Arthur just smiled, shook his head, and said nothing. This girl here was already spoiling herself much with him, like they had already become a man and woman.
As the workers continued to extract the ore, Arthur decided to go down and take a stroll there. "Wanna come?" he asked, and she just glanced at all the dust and ruckus going on down there, before shaking her head and looking in another direction. "Doesn't suit my beautiful scales," she simply muttered.
He simply smiled, said nothing, as he started descending the mountain in dragon form. His first stop was at the small village, as he noticed the presence of many villagers there, doing nothing at all!
"Welcome our new lord, we are honored to receive you," one of the middle aged villagers bowed deeply to him, and Arthur just changed his form back to human before asking:
"What are you doing here? why aren't you working with them?"
"W-We are the officials appointed here by the last lord. Our job is to make sure the mine functions properly, and no error will occur," one of them replied, after stuttering for a moment. Arthur's looks started to become colder. "No place fo you in my place, either you move your fatty as*es down below and work, or I will make sure you leave this place properly on the edges of my warriors' swords."
His words jolted them out of scare, as they exchanged silent glances, and as Arthur noticed that, he simply took out his sword, the one he had the first moment he arrived in this world, and cut the head of one of them. "Move and work or stay and die!" his tone was low, but the next moment they all ran, heading towards the exit of this small village, descending the mountain path towards the mines to work there.
"Filthy fat dirty officials!" he cursed, as he smelled the scent of corruption spreading from their bodies a mile away!
The numbers of these officials weren't big, only a couple of thousands, and that made him think about killing them all. However, he didn't do that, as he went to the inside of the village, exploring it.
To be called a village was an understatement, as it had a luxurious design of building suited of a city! he marveled the fine decorations, the many statues of a strange creature, five heads like tigers, two bodies merged together near the tail, five group of claws, one pair of long wings, covered with strange sharp feathers, acting each like a thin pointed long needle. As for the whole body, it was covered in scales, partly, and parts weren't.
When he moved to closely watch these statues, he was astonished to see this wasn't a whole creature, it was representing a wounded, severely wounded, creature. Many wings had fractures, making them not extend fully and straight. The body had many places void of scales, while the bare parts showed the shape of a deep wound.
Wounds here, wounds there, broken wings, broken claws, fractured tails, even some had a head or two missing, Arthur saw all the various statues representing this deformation to the monster in every possible way.
"This isn't a sacred monster of them, it's the opposite!" he muttered, as he left all the decorations in the houses and the luxure appearing even in the paves street he was walking on, and focused on a small fountain with the statue of such a monster being trapped in a long, extremely scary, rope line darkness, extended from the hands of three dark mages, ending each with a tortured face.
"It's the soul suckers, one of the nasty groups of the dark warriors here."
Suddenly this voice came so clear from his back, and the moment he turned to see his speaker, he found a young girl, nearly in his age, with calm beauty that would seem rather common, but he couldn't leave his eyes away from her.
"And you are?" he asked, as he made sure to send everyone away.
"I'm the lucky one to be saved and rescued by you, my lord," she replied, while her facial small and delicate features showed a sincere expression of appreciation. She bent her knees, cross side each other, bowing her head, while holding the tips of her long and wide gown while saying:
"I'm called Sara, the once was the daughter of the great sculpture of these lands, a princess to a ruined nation, someone who was misfortunate enough to witness the downfall of all my kin, very lucky indeed to marvel the devastation of those who enslaved me, and made my life full of all these scars."
She introduced herself in such a long and formal manner, while Arthur just forget all this as he asked:
"A princess? Such a weird term in this world!"
"It's not from this world, if you are asking," she replied, without straightening her body yet, waiting for his order to do so.
