Tales Of The Mighty Dragonair

Arthur didn't wait for a long time before portals flashed and three people appeared out of them at first. Doaf, Amera, and Nicole stood around him while he had to stop flying for now.

He knew such things would need his attention before returning to fly again.

"You want me to lead half of my forces out?" the first one to speak was the agitated Nicole, "who gave you the permission to order me like this? Huh?"

She seemed angry, not quite overcoming what her lover did to her from before. Arthur could only sympathise silently with her but he couldn't show that on his face.

Instead he calmly stood there while watching her angry face.

"You are under my protection," Arthur slowly said, "but that doesn't mean you and your forces don't work for me."

"Who said that?" she still was persistent in defying him as she crossed her arms in front of her chest.

"Your grandmaster did," Arthur calmly said before turning to Amera, "and she was there as a witness for that."

"Then send her out instead!" Nicole shouted, "I don't want to be part of this."

"She has other things to do," Arthur could only smile, "and whether you liked it or not, you are now part of my war."

"Humph, I won't move out of your hidden world then."

Arthur anticipated some resistance from her, but like that. He was starting to get impatient and that made him take a decision.

"If you aren't going to cooperate then I'll have to leave you here all alone."

"As if I would be scared from such a low world," yet Nicole didn't seem to be frightened by his threatening words.

"The higher realms will send their troops soon," Arthur slowly said while Doaf and Amera could only stand on the side and watch, "they already have many forces scattered here. Are you sure you want to stay here all alone? By yourself?"

This time Nicole seemed to be startled and affected by his threat. Her face showed her hesitation while Arthur calmly continued:

"I promised your grandmaster to protect you, but I didn't say I won't use you."

"As if you dare to touch the hair of my body," Nicole said in an arrogant tone that was misplaced here. Arthur gave her a weird look before realizing what she was referring to.

And that made him more uncomfortable around her.

"I hope you lead your forces and help me crush this world."

"I can do it without even moving a finger," Nicole said, "why do you need me to lead them? I'm happy here."

"I said so," Arthur calmly said, "and so you have to follow my orders."

"Orders?" Nicole sneered but at this moment Amera grabbed her arm and stopped her from saying any more words.

"She will go," Amera spoke for her and that made Nicole give her a threatening look. "I'll make sure she will."

"Good," Arthur nodded and threw that little matter behind his back, "are your forces ready?"

"They are," Doaf said while Amera grabbed Nicole slightly away from the two.

"Isn't it too hasty to force her in this war?" Doaf whispered while watching the nervous and angry Nicole debating with Amera.

"She has to," Arthur said without exposing any further of his intentions.

"That goes way deeper than I thought," Doaf could only sigh, "are you trying to force her to say what her girlfriend sent her here for?"

"I doubt she knows anything about that," Arthur said without moving his gaze away from the two girls. They were slightly far off the two men and seemed to have a very intense argument between each other right now.

"I hope you know what you are doing," Doaf could only say before adding, "can I take my men out?"

'Gege,' Arthur simply gave her the order and the next moment hundreds of portals flashed all around before three hundred mages appeared.

They all nodded in salute to Doaf and Arthur while saying in unison:

"Young master."

This scene attracted the attention of the two girls fighting at a distance and forced them to stop talking.

"You know what to do," Arthur calmly said, "go and don't forget to scan everything in a keen way."

They all nodded before silently flying away in different directions. From far this seemed like a giant wave of tsunami moving all over the world, aiming to cover it all.

Arthur stood calmly while watching them leave. They all flew fast and in a matter of minutes they all vanished from his sight.

"My boys will take responsibility for half the world," Doaf explained, "as for the other half, Amera's boys will watch it."

Arthur nodded while taking back his gazes towards the two girls. They didn't argue for long this time before the two came and stood in front of him.

In fact during all their argument, Gege kept relaying what they were speaking about. Amera was stressing over the suspicious actions of Aemie, and Arthur's clear intentions of testing her and her mages out before deciding to trust them.

Nicole stressed over the fact that she knew nothing at all about her girlfriend's true plans. Yet after Amera warned her from Arthur's retaliation, and she saw with her own eyes his first step towards taking control of this world, Nicole decided to agree at last.

She was the victim here, a victim from all sides. However Arthur didn't give a damn about that. He knew Aemie had her own agenda, and he was sure the earlier he found out about it the better.

And this chance was a golden one for him to unveil part of that secret.

"What do you need from me and my forces?" Despite approving of going on this mission, her tone and attitude were still the same and didn't change even for a bit.

Yet Arthur didn't show any discontent towards her. He knew she was angry, and she had all the right to be. He could understand that, however he wouldn't let that get in the way of his own plans.

"You are going to lead them and crash over a large army," Arthur slowly said before adding, "that army is made entirely of higher realm mages. Be sure to know that being here puts many limitations on your powers. So try first to take things easy and don't underestimate this army."

"Oh, he is worried on me now," Nicole sarcastically said but Arthur ignored her useless remark and turned to Amera.

"Are your boys ready?"
