Tales Of The Mighty Dragonair

He turned to face these tens of thousands of youths, all ranging in age between twelve and sixteen. They all moved and gathered in front of him, looking at him in a silent manner.

He thought of saying something, but before he could open his mouth, one of the youths said:

"So this is the savior they promised us with? He isn't that older than us!"

He glanced at the youth feeling strange as he never expected to be attacked in the first meeting with them!

"Yes, I can't accept serving someone so young and looking weaker than us."

"Let's select our leaders from our own selves. I recommend we select those who had direct lineage with the emperors, kings, and queens."

"Good suggestion and excellent words. those with royal bloodline please step forward, let's select someone worthy, better than this clown!"

Arthur was at first speechless, feeling lost here, but gradually he became angry as he realized the dirty play those in power of ancient times planned!

Just as he was about to reply, try to find a way to kill this small rebellion in its infant stage, the system voice rang in his mind again:

"Ding! The reward you were promised had been tainted by the ancient schemes of the old monarchs! Your authority is in question, and soon everyone will revolt against you. A dragonair is mighty, and in front of disrespectful folks, strength and brutality is the only answer. A task is assigned to you, please ask for it to view and accept it."

"That seems quite appropriate. Show me the task."

"Ding! The dragonair is mighty and his authority is the supreme task! The youths who should have been loyal to you are revolting. Diplomacy will fail, only strength and brutal strength will be enough to silence any second thoughts. You have the slave mark, but it's not activated yet as they didn't recognize you.

The task is to use brutal force and start a massacre, killing at least one tenth of the population here and terrorizing the others.

Failure to do the mission will result in losing the right to own these youths, making the future steps for you as a potential monarch hard and unpredictable.

Success will grant you the youths loyalty, plus more of the world recognition, plus the rewards of summoning one thousand basic tier monsters of the ancient times."

Arthur totally ignored the silly play going on in front of him as he marveled the task he had. He glanced at the rewards and felt some curiosity towards the basic tier monsters the system spoke of; were they like the monster in the world he came from? Were they ranked here like there?

He glanced at those youths before asking:

"If I killed one tenth of them, won't that endanger losing some talents in the process?"

"Ding! Don't worry yourself, each talent has hundreds of candidates. Even if you killed half of them, you wouldn't be at any loss."

"Tsk, that's a relief then. I'm sure she will love this," he smirked evilly and viciously as he knew how he would disciple these arrogant rebellious bastards.

"Come forth!"

The next moment, the scorpion queen appeared, with her great body and double tails, making her look really scary. She was still mad at him, as he stopped the amusing fight she was seeing between Sara and that hideous monster.

She glanced at him, and she couldn't speak now as he was in human form, but he pointed towards the youths who all got silenced by the sudden appearance of that scorpion as he said:

"Go and kill one fourth of them."

She turned her head to glance at those tens of thousands of youths, before turning to look at him again, with anticipating eyes.

"Sure, you can play as much as you like. They were rude and they needed to be faced with the utter truth. now go, I will watch from the side."

"Roar!"

The scorpion roared, in a happy manner, before she jumped over the stupefied youths, and a massacre started.

The youths tried to run, organize their lines and use their powers; however they were just awakened from deep slumber, and Arthur knew exactly how hard it would be to use one's strengths after sleeping for a long time.

He returned to the mansion, with the loud screams of pain, agony, and despair coming from behind him. He opened the door before entering inside the building.

He was met by a wide hall, with many chandeliers hanging from the high ceiling. The moment he stepped in, the chandeliers all lit up, lightening the whole place, making him smile with deep content and excitement.

"All the walls are covered with books? that's very generous of you old Alex."

The walls were all covered in rows upon rows of books; he was inside a huge library. For some book nerd like himself, this was truly the biggest prize he could ask for.

Just as he was about to go and read some books, to know what the ancient civilization was built upon, the system voice rang in his ears:

"Ding! There is no time to waste in here. you must go out soon and start your next task."

"My next task? So soon? The first isn't over yet!"

"Ding! Sigh, you used such a vicious means to discipline them, and soon they will all kneel and ask for your forgiveness. This task is considered over, and the time here will be wasted. Time is a golden essence, and you need to be more careful. your next task is selected, and you need to start it soon."

Arthur was really skeptical about leaving all this book trove here and retreating. "What's the urgency about the task?" he asked.

"Ding! Open it yourself and see!"

"Sigh, alright, show it to me."

"Ding! The dragonair is mighty and he must reign supreme over the whole region task! Your enemies have caught wind of what you just gained here, and they asked the Dorfis clan to stand up to you for the next month until they can divert part of their strength to destroy you once and for all!

The task is divided into many stages, and the basic stage is available to you now.

The basic stage of the dragonair is mighty and he must reign supreme over the whole region task: You are in the middle of taking the pillars away from the Dorfis clan. These pillars are the main lifeline currently for the clan; taking them away will deal a great blow to their morale and strength.

Task objectives: all the pillars must be acquired, all in less than a week period.

Failure to do the task will result in a great increase in your enemy's strength, great weakening of your potential growth, and the next battles will be hard and unpredictable.

Success in doing the task will give you great benefits in population and war supplies, plus gaining the world recognition, plus a reward of an army of a hundred thousand of an ancient warring legion."

Arthur suddenly got his attention towards this point neglected by him; Alex warning! His enemies rapidly knew about his deeds, and now they had sent the Dorfis clan after him to reduce his rising speed.

"It seems I have to postpone checking out here for later," he sighed, before saying:

"I accept the task, but I want to ask; why one week?"

"Ding! The duration was selected based on the approximated time your enemies will move to attack your city."

"Is it in one week?" he got an instant scare as his city was still in an infant stage, and he doubted in a week's time he would be able to finish building it!

"Ding! The attack will fall in two to three weeks max, so you have one week at least to return to your city and prepare things there."

"Phew, you made my heart drop to my knees, system."

"…"

The system ignored his remark, and he had no time to waste now. he moved outside, closed the door tightly, before saying to his scorpion queen, who was very immersed in the joy of torturing those arrogant youths:

"Stay here until you finish your assignment, then I will summon you out to play more."

"Roar!"

The scorpion roared happily in reply while Arthur opened his closed eyes, returned to the real world.

In the real world, Sara and Tina were still fighting each other with words, making Arthur have some doubts.

"Hey, how long have I been inside?"

The two suddenly stopped fighting as they glanced at him in a strange way like he just asked a silly question. "Not more than five minutes, why?" Tina replied, while Sara sighed as she muttered, shaking her head:

"You got the supreme treasure, what a regret!"

Tina glanced at her as it seemed they two had quarreled already about this treasure. "I told you, he is your man, and anything good to be called a treasure should belong to him!"

Sara lost all the will to argue with her as she just sighed, ignored Tina, as she turned to Arthur as she asked:

"Are the youths alright?"

"This is a long story, I will tell you about while we are on the way. Tina, c'mon here."

Tina moved towards him and he just rode her before she and Sara flew back towards the place of the last portal. "Did you know about the existence of that treasure?" he asked.

"Everyone in my time knew about it. It was a known fact that someone of the ancient dudes called Alex something built the castle and left a great treasure inside for the one who would come in the future and enter it. by the way, what is the treasure anyway?"

He smiled faintly and said nothing, as he would prefer to keep the identity of the system hidden for now.
