Chapter 573: New Development

Arthur kept himself busy roaming around and bringing all the population he could reach. The place of his landing was inside a very poor place but despite that he managed to gather one million from here.

"That's getting somewhat in shape," he took a wide tour over his city as he marveled the construction going on everywhere. The barren lands turned into mere seven days into such a majestic city.

And what he cared about was the defenses, and they were neatly built as the first thing to be done in his city.

"Alright, I think I can start linking my walls to my pillars."

'You'll need a strong source of energy to do that,' Gege said.

'Ding! The last time you managed to pull that feat only because of that Golam. Other than this, the walls might not have been integrated with the pillars.'

"Hmm… I don't doubt my enemies will do everything to crush me this time," he muttered before he cracked a smile over his face, "and I totally depend on that to make my city more powerful and much secured."

'You know sometimes you make me wonder if you are sane or not,' the golden dragon sighed, 'but one thing is for sure, you carry the stubborn crazy genes of dragonairs in your blood.'

"Humph."

Since seeing the moment of creating the black dragonairs and he started to have other thoughts about being a dragonair. He only felt lucky that he managed to break free from the shackles of old times dragonairs, but he still held doubts towards the entire dragonair race.

"Do you have a minute?" suddenly Rivak appeared in front of him. The old Rivak was gone and now this young man became a talking legend in Arthur's new city.

The one who didn't have any talent before cracked open a myriad of talents. First his fighting abilities soared when he managed to chance into a gigantic lion, with a body rivaling that of the Golam Arthur once killed.

Arthur knew there was more space to grow for this little man, and he didn't hesitate in nourishing him with everything he got. He also used a slave contract to ensure he wouldn't turn against him, as he did so with most of the warriors he gained from this world.

The second trait this young man had was a vision one. He could now dream of things before it happened and all of his predictions were correct and on the spot.

The third and foremost important to Arthur was his planning mind. This young man developed an exceptional planning ability and great mind in devising plans and planning tactics, both for war and for peace.

"Sure," Arthur smiled as he warmly welcomed the lion and landed with him towards the ground. "What's bothering you? Have you gotten a vision?"

"My lord is always right."

"Is it a good one?" Arthur asked despite already getting the answer from the stern look over Rivak's face.

"It's… not that good."

"Tell me then."

"I saw… great armies marching at us in great speed and momentum. I saw fractions of bitter fight while our entire city would rest in flames. I saw… defeat."

Arthur nodded with grave face while asking: "Any info about that invading army?"

"It's four," he corrected, "four coming from the four big dark academies on our sides."

"That's expected," Arthur said before asking, "and about their forces?"

"I saw millions running towards here. Many great forces are gathered and in my opinion our city can't hold back such offense."

"Indeed," Arthur nodded before glancing all around as he asked, "have you seen any giant monsters?"

"By giants you mean like mine?" he bitterly smiled before shaking off his head, "there were at least a hundred of them, plus many legions coming from higher planes," he paused before adding, "I saw my own falling, I even saw yours."

"Interesting," Arthur wasn't a bit scared by this vision, "do you have a time frame for that?"

"Five days from now they will arrive."

"That's good time," Arthur nodded before turning around and then turning again into a dragon.

"Do you want me to devise an escape plan?"

"No, I want you to devise a fight plan."

"F… but that's impossible."

Arthur was already midair when he turned around as he sneered, "you don't know how much I love to break that impossible. I'll go and reduce our enemies by one less army."

"But…"

"You just make sure all the defenses are completed and preparations for war are properly done. Also make Deem and Gor build more towers and try to make Agnus craft something good for killing."

Rivak watched the shadow of Arthur flying far from his sight before sighing.

"Are we going to war?" Tina excitedly asked.

"Are they strong?" the queen asked in no less excitement than hers.

"I believe it's not a good fight for us," Sara sighed as she noticed the look over Arthur's face.

"We are going to do something crazy," Arthur laughed before adding, "let's pick up speed. Our target is supposed to be only two days on flying, but I need to reach there one day less."

"Who are we going to fight?" Tina asked with much anticipation.

"The Rorad academy," Arthur sneered before adding, "we are going to smash them into shreds."

'I still think this is a bad plan,' Gege said after constant flight for a day.

'C'mon, we are going to have the fun of our lives here,' Arthur laughed before adding, 'system, show me the info about the quest for upgrading my dragomancer ability once again.'

'Ding! The dragonair is mighty and you have a very special ability that can be upgraded. The dragomancer ability is in the form of evolving, and you need to supplement energy for it to grow.

Quest condition: kill at least one million strong men either by yourself or by using your armies under your command. Each killed soul will be absorbed, refined, and help in upgrading the dragomancer ability. Killing more will make your ability grow more.'
