"Alright."
The next moment a wave of light prevailed here as the master said in strong deep tone:
"My littled here asked me to generously send you back, but I''m not such a kind person. I will leave a mark on your souls, eating it slowly away. In less than ten years you will all be killed by it. farewell dark n puppets."
The light then surrounded everyone before an agony and pained expression appeared on their faces; all but one.
"I will visit you soon!"
These were the silent words the one framed by Arthur spoke with his lips, with a very angry face and threatening nces.
"I will wait for you then, master," Arthur cupped his ws in the direction of that man, making his anger escte to no end. Arthur knew this man intended ill to him, but he didn''t care.
He was ying a dangerous game, and if he wasn''t shameless and bold enough, he would lose everything.
Arthur then watched all the leaders leave, feeling no much regret about losing thest pir. However, all vanished except thest one.
"I thought you might want to end this little y of yours and take the pir back," the masterughed as he said that, and Arthur understood what he did.
"Thanks master for helping me out."
"It''s me who should thank you. After all, such a weak and fragiled as yours is helping me to liberate all my family heritage."
Arthur smiled and didn''t reply as he nced at thest leader, whose red bulging eyes expressed everything he was thinking about right now.
"Why don''t we make a deal together?" Arthur was so greedy that he decided to try and pouch this cornered leader to his side.
The leader''s face turned more gloomy as he nced at him while saying nothing.
"Let''s face the bitter truth; you were scandalled by me. you and I know very well you are innocent and you were framed, but do you really think others will be merciful on you? Will they listen? Will they trust you?"
Arthur then sighed, faking a sad reaction as he added:
"If you were a light ns, I would say friendship and old bonds never die easily. Trust gained over hundred of years won''t be scratched by just a mere y I just tricked you all with. However, you and I know very well this isn''t the case here.
They will suspect and me you, not only stopping at mere words and you know that. they will keeping until thest kid and girl from your n would be wiped out, or much worse to be enved like what you did to the indigenous people of this world.
Do you want to risk standing alone? Do you think you can fight them all? Do you really have the delusion of them listening to you? Or having friends and allies sticking together with you at this ordeal?"
Arthur then sighed, and the more he spoke the more unsightly the face of this n head became. Arthur knew his words wouldn''t be instantly embraced by this man, but at least he would nail the offer inside his soul so deep that he wouldn''t be able to neglect it at some point.
"Before I die, I wille to kill you!"
The n head just spoke with his lips, and Arthur didn''t feel angry or frustrated. Instead, he smiled as he confidently said:
"I trust your judgment, working for me isn''t that bad after all. Just think about it man, and don''t let your ego stand between you and your only hope to survive.
You aren''t one of us; those who have principles and beliefs so damn rooted deeply inside to die for! You are a dark side man, taking advantage of others is your creed, and surviving to live another day is your utmost desire! I will let you go and consider my offer, if you ept it, you know where to find me."
Then Arthur''s face turned serious as he added, "And if you have this delusion that you can stand against me, then marvel your eyes well with my master here, as next time you won''t have the chance to see this amazing scene before dying."
Arthur then dropped his blood over the pir, before channeling the energy towards his garden. The next moment the pir shook and rumbled, before turning to nihility, vanishing instantly.
And then the leader''s presence was permitted to leave, while Arthur waved his hand towards him, like he was waving at a deeply cherished friend.
"You really… sigh, you are a dragonair son indeed."
The master sighed while Arthurughed shortly before turning to face his master, while cupping his ws and deeply bowing to his master with much appreciation. "Thanks for the help here, without you I would have been doomed."
"Never mind, but have a question; who was the mole?"
Arthur then straighten his body as he replied:
"It''s Olor, the one man who had the one hundred pirs being snatched away from him."
"Hehehe, you are really something! But don''t trust him so much, after all they are dark ns, have no honor, and their words neverst!"
"Don''t worry master, I got him tied up by a ve mark and an oath on the witness of the world''s will."
"World''s will?!"
Arthur suddenly felt some tension in the air, making him realize he might have said something he shouldn''t have. While he became nervous, the master suddenlyughed, and this time hisughs were really longer than ever.
"Sure, that''s really a great encounter for you. But beware, ying with the world''s will isn''t a child''s joke."
Arthur heaved a silent sigh of relief while nodding and saying no more. He didn''t know what he should say and not to say in regard to this matter.
"I will go now to make my delicious dinner ready. Hehehe, I''m sure those old folks will be much envious of me tonight, hehehe."
"Ahem, master, I have a request."
"Ah, sure, your share will be preserved in the soup. Only the soup, alright?"
"Master!"
"This is final! I won''t give you a single bone of it. this is for your own protection! Your body can''t handle this huge amount of energy at this weak state of yours."
"I won''t eat it, I want to do something with it."
"A weapon? No way, you won''t be able even to wield it!"
"Nah, it''s another thing. Can the master preserve a small piece of bone for me, please?"
"Sigh," the master seemed quite annoyed with this request, yet he said, "alright, I will send one to you through one of the already freed pirs."
Arthur realized his master was speaking about those five pure pirs he now had. "Another thing master."
"I won''t give you anymore than this! Don''t be greedy! Gosh, why are all the dragonairs greedy and stubborn?!"
Arthur hurried to shake his head as he exined:
"It''s not rted to that monster, I want to ask about the pirs I just snatched."
"What about them?" the tone of the master showed how puzzled he was right now.
"I know they are the master pirs, connecting more pirs together. I want to know the way to summon others."
"Oh, don''t tell me they are the primes? Ohd, your luck is endless, hehehehe," the masterughed for a long time again before he added, "it''s simple, use the arrows you made andunch them on the pir. Then you will be able to summon any connected pirs to them. remember, one arrow for each pir, no less."
"So the more I tried the better, right?"
"Smart kid, now time for me to go."
The master then vanished instantly like the way he appeared. The moment he disappeared, Arthur felt the entire world here got dimmed, making him sigh. "I should have asked for another bone or a piece of flesh for these pirs I will gather," he shook his head in regret, before turning to nce over the exit of the world, which now became wide open for him.
"Did I lose the quest?" he asked, while heading towards the outside world.
"Ding! No, you perfectlypleted it. all you need to do now is to go and take the remaining pirs out there."
"Good."
