He turned his gaze upon the runes where hended his blood over them. "Activate the ve contract," he muttered before he and the fiercely resisting Anna with no result were shrouded under a veil of dense screen.


    This didn''t take more than ten minutes, and when he appeared again he nced over her in surprise. "So long to make you a ve?"


    "Damn you! Release me now!" she cursed out loud while her body twitched under the immense pressure of the garden.


    Over her shoulder, and rising up to her neck, a tattoo of a blue dragon appeared there, resonating with the tattoo he had on his right hand.


    He raised his hand to her face. "See that? I can easily kill you now."


    "Kill me then! I don''t want to live the life of a traitor."


    "We''ll see…" he snapped his fingers and the immense pressure over her instantly vanished.


    "I''ll kill you!" she shouted in rage before jumping over him. Yet another snap of his fingers made her m heavily on the ground once more. "A fierce animal like you will be slowly tamed with strength," he calmly said before turning towards the dense shield nearby.


    "Feel free to go and pump your head onto this, and every now and then I''lle to make you suffer, or…" he stopped as he turned to face her, e with me and learn from my masters and be stronger to serve me better."


    "I would never be a snitch!"


    "We''ll see about it," he snapped his fingers before the next moment his body changed into the dragon form.


    "If not my real powers aren''t sealed, I swear I would easily have you crushed!"


    "Hrious," Arthurughed amusingly while his golden dragonined again yet he ignored his remarks. "Ifs don''t work in the real world dear," he walked away from her while she kept standing in her ce ring fiercely at him.


    She watched him leave before she promised: "One day I''ll repay all this in folds!"


    "She is fierce, I like her," the goldenmented before adding, "but there is something that bothers me."


    "Don''t say my silent roars again," Arthur was delighted by the result he just achieved. He now had two pawns in hand. Despite her refusal, he knew with time she would have her mind changed.


    "Your roars are a thing you shouldn''t mention or use for now," the golden dragon sighed before adding, "she has some sort of annoying power embedded deeply inside her soul. I can feel it, yet I can''t determine what power she has."


    "Like my roars?" Arthur was surprised to hear this knowledge, "is it a soul type attack as well?"


    "I frankly don''t know," the golden dragon said, "but from this aura alone I can tell she was someone strong back in the higher realms."


    "Good to have her sealed beforeing here then," Arthurughed as the stronger she was the better she would serve him. He wasn''t worried as he had his seal over her soul; a mere thought would kill her.


    "Stop using those damned roars!" the golden dragon roared in pain.


    "Ding! I''ve moved almost everyone, you are ready to go back now."


    "Thanks for the trouble," Arthur waved his wings to head directly towards the ce where his masters gathered.


    Just as he got closer fast to it, he noticed the great numbers gathered there. "Wow, how much have you brought so far?" he asked in surprise as he never thought the numbers would be thisrge.


    "Ding! Aren''t you the one asking everyone to join?" the system was speechless as this was slightly lesser than what he initially expected.


    Arthurnded in the center of this big mess. The moment he arrived, everyone got silenced like they were dreading his presence.


    "Wow, you know you made all of us lose?" Amandaughed the moment hended and canceled his transformation.


    "Lose what?" he asked as he didn''t understand her meaning.


    "They had a bet," Amelia smiled beforeughing, "a bet around how much you''ll bring with you."


    "And?" he curiously asked.


    "Just told you," Amandaughed, "they lost, we all lost."


    "I''m d you are happy in your loss," he smiled before asking, "but what does it have to do with me?"


    "Who said it has anything to do with you?" she teased him.


    "Your face told everything," heughed as she wasn''t a bit sad or regretful about the bet, not like other masters around. "C''mon, tell me what was that all about?"


    "They lost, and they will aid us with double time than their disciples," Amelia said with a chuckle.


    "We can''t stay here forever," Slone groaned before adding, "we have to calcte it ording to the time in this world," he added while helplessly shaking his head. "And what are those? Have you just put a prize over our head or something?" he added while turning around to nce over everyone here.


    "Hahaha," Arthurughed on hisment, "master Slone, these are just the crème of croup in my world here," he proudly said before adding, "plus I didn''t n to make them all learn from you."


    "Thanks goodness," Mr. E heaved a long sigh of relief. "Then why did you bring all of them here? Trying to scare us?"


    "Wait a minute, if they won''t join us in the training, then we haven''t lost the bet yet," Otman hurried to say.


    "C''mon, don''t be this bitter over such a small loss," Amandaughed while giving Arthur a nce to silence him.


    "They are here to take a test first," Arthur didn''t heed by her warning, "those capable enough to prove themselves to you will be selected."


    "Oh, you want us to be the judges, great," Cesileughed before adding, "this bet is my win, not loss, hehehehe."


    "Don''t be so rash to jump to such a conclusion," Mr.. Eughed as well, "I will put the harshest test ever for those boys here."
