"Your orders my lord."


    The moment Deem got out with his men he saluted Arthur in deep respect.


    "See this settlement over there? Do your magic and turn it into a city."


    "This…" Deem was quite hesitant before asking, "do you mean to build another city beside it?"


    "I doubt you won''t like this settlement," Arthurughed, "just take a stroll around and figure things out."


    "I will," Deem said before expressing his doubts, "but what I''m worried about is theyout itself. My lord knows we build cities based on the Ley Lines diagrams."


    "Oh, you mean that…" Arthur paused before nodding, "then feel free to demolish any buildings toy down the foundations."


    "This might be quiteplicated," Deem sighed, "but I''ll take a look first and decideter."


    "Good, I''ll be waiting for your decision then."


    Arthur stood back while watching the forces led by the three supreme leaders gaining full control over the settlement. At the same time the mecah legion led by Nara was already hovering over the sky, adding a nice intimidating touch to this ce.


    "I doubt they can touch here with weak forces," he smiled before noticing a group of ten moving in haste towards him.


    They were the original leaders of this ce and he guessed the purpose of theiring.


    "My lord," they all kneeled on the ground in salute, "we are very thrilled to have you here. My name is Torkey, and I was the previous leader of this ce."


    He was an old man that reminded him instantly of Grandpa Regil. Arthur took a deep breath and cleared his thoughts before saying:


    "Rx and tell me more about this ce."


    "It''s a ce of an ancient strong academy that once were destroyed by the dark forces here," Torkey exined before adding, "we hailed from the survivors of the ns that supported the academy and since that ancient times we stationed ourselves here."


    He pointed towards the great walls before adding, "we used the old knowledge passed down by our ancestors and started improving it. This ce always represented a sour spot in the entire world of darkness here. Many times they came and all of them were defeated."


    His face and tone told Arthur these glorious moments of the past didn''te without a hefty price to pay. And that led Arthur to ask about his next concern.


    "Are there any settlements, viges and towns, or even ns living nearby that support you?"


    "We have some," Torkey seemed hesitant as this seemed a secretive topic inside the settlement higher ups even, "do lord need them toe as well?"


    "I want all," Arthur said with a wide smile, "I want everyone and anyone you can bring from all over the ce."


    "But… we might face a little problem regarding the capacity of the ce," one of the middle aged men standing behind Torkey said.


    "Don''t worry about that," Arthur waved his hand casually, "I''ve already sent my top architect to renovate your settlement into a big and strong city."


    "We heard," one man said in a tone that revealed his annoyance from that, "but this man asked for some buildings to be removed and another giant one asked for the civilians to prepare and leave. We didn…"


    The man didn''t continue his words before Arthur vanished and appeared the next moment with his sword cleaving that man''s head.


    "Anyone have an opinion he likes to share with me?"


    His tone while standing there with the fall of the helpless body of that man made everyone swallow anything they wanted to ask about.


    "This is war, and I came all the way here to conquer this ce, these dark forces, and rule over the entire world," he dered before adding, "what I and my top men ask of you can''t be negotiated. I won''t tolerate any hesitation or disobedience anymore. Are my words clear?"


    "Yes lord," the remaining nine men hurriedly said with some fear in their tones. They weren''t weak despite being old, yet they never saw Arthur moving or saw his sword cutting the head of their friend off.


    "Good," Arthur nodded, "go back and do as my top men said. I''ll take all the civilians away and this ce would be only left for mages to live."


    They had many doubts and questions yet they now regretted waiting to meet him and ask. At least those folks underneath him weren''t that harsh in their reactions and were chatting nicely with them.


    Arthur watched them retreat before saying to Gege:


    "Ask the tree to track these nine and inform Doaf if one of them tried to do something funny."


    ''I will,'' Gege said before the system suddenly returned.


    ''Ding! The world''s will agreed to help,'' he said and paused without adding more.


    "In return to what?" Arthur took a deep breath and prepared himself for an extravagant price this time.


    Despite him knowing that, he didn''t hesitate to talk to her first. He knew whatever she would ask wouldn''t be much different from what he was nning to do here.


    Only he had to rearrange his priorities and put what she needed before anything else he had in mind.


    ''Ding! She asks you to go to a ce and do the same thing as you did here.''


    "A ce…" Arthur muttered in doubt, "what is special about that ce?"


    ''Ding! It lies in the heart of this world.''


    ''You don''t mean… that surrounded little dot that was on the map!'' Gege eximed in shock while Arthur didn''t get their meaning.


    "What point? What do you two speak about?"


    ''It''s a ce lined by huge mountains from every side,'' Gege said before adding, ''yet it''s protected well, it''s also secluded from the world and surrounded by a dense cluster of dark forces.''


    "And she wants me to liberate that ce?" Arthur asked in shock.


    ''Ding! She said ''take over it, crush those around and build cities over their ashes.''


    "…"


    ''This is an impossible task to do, especially now,'' Gege sighed.


    "We can postpone it forter then," Arthur sighed, "I''ll have to pay the ones living here and hopefully they can give valuable information."


    Arthur knew that taking info from those living here was nothing like gaining it from the mouth of the world''s will. She was aware of every single speck of dust in this world and so she can give reliable and priceless intel about all ores and nts… even monsters.


    But taking this info from the mouths of those living here would mean he had to try and see if these ores and nts were worth his time and effort or not.


    Which was something paled inparison with the world''s will help without doubt.


    ''Ding! No we can''t,'' the system suddenly threw the bomb he held so far, ''Ding! She said there is a punitive force that isn''t less weak than the one we fought here and it''s drawing near that ce.''


    "You gotta be kidding me!" Arthur couldn''t help but remark, "what''s so special about that ce anyway?"


    ''Ding! She said it was a sect,'' the system threw another bomb and this one made Arthur''s heart pound massively in his chest, ''Ding! She said it''s an ancient sect that one man established in the past and left unattended for the oneing generations after… it''s a sect for you to lead!''
