Chapter 725 A Battle Between Brothers
-----
Frank watched the battle within the seats, he was a bit nervous himself, Arthurious had been practicing this entire time to grow stronger with Blackie, and after a long time of battling against many of the monster pets in the monster nursery, it was finally time to show off his might, and the might of his goat, the goat that had been accompanying him since the beginning of his life.
Arthurious brother stood before him with a cocky and confident smile, he was blonde and rather similar looking to his little brother. Actually, both of them had barely any interactions with one another, the siblings of the child of the Emperor, the father of Arthurious, were very limited, and they often bullied the younger and weaker ones constantly, beating their monster pets into almost dead as well to intimidate them.
This wasn't done without reason, of course that there was the reason of them finding pleasure out of it, but there was also the other reason behind it, such as that they enjoyed glancing at him struggle, and well, there was the real reason in the competition between siblings. In this world the stronger will always dominate the weaker. This also applies to monster tamers, a philosophy passed down from the oldest ancestors of the humans that arrived in this world filled with monster long ago…
Due to this, Arthurious entire family tradition was of the siblings battling one another with their strong monster pets, the winner would be decided after the others were defeated and even killed if they wanted things to be swiftly, there was an all-out battle royale, the more siblings, the more chaotic. It was their own wicked traditions, and although Arthurious didn't wanted to participate, the monster pet he was given for the reason of participating maturated with the help of Frank, and he was forced into it without knowing.
And no, they will not just forget about him because he's not aggressive, even more, they'll target him for that reason, if there is a last man standing after the other defeat one another, they'll win by default, therefore, everyone must be made sure to be crushed. And without realizing it, Arthurious was about to fight one of his strongest eldest siblings, the battle royale between siblings had finally begun for the throne of the Empire.
The Emperor was old already, his son was bedridden after an incurable disease named cancer, and he would pass out soon, he had to find an inheritor to the throne, and Arthurious and his other four siblings would do… the last standing man will become the new Emperor of the Navarre Empire.
Therefore, as the Emperor decreed, he had arranged their fight here. Arthurious Navarre and Hectarious Navarre will fight, the winner can fight the other siblings and continue climbing to get the throne!
But of course, this was a greatest secret, no one, not even the siblings themselves knew very well how these rules worked. The people was completely unaware of such an internal war for the throne either… But Frank knew, he had figured it out some time ago already after he spied the interior of Arthurious house using a shadow clone.
<br/>He knew this was a decisive moment for Arthurious life, he couldn't let the boy down in this, he had to cheer up for him and see how far he could reach… This was the very least thing he could do for him after all, he couldn't simply ignore it.
"But if it isn't my little brother, nice to meet you, Arthurious, it has been truly a while. Do you got another monster pet or did that pathetic goat of yours survived?" Asked Hectarious rather cockily.
"Blackie recovered and he grew stronger…" Said Arthurious, keeping his composure despite his intimidating brother's provocations…
Hectarious saw his little brother had somehow changed, he felt slightly… fearful, but he quickly moved away that thought from his mind as he smiled evilly back at him.
"Well, whatever's the case, you're losing today, so make sure to give up before I kill your monster." Laughed Arthurious brother, as he suddnely summoned a giant four-meter-big black wyvern!
"GROOOAAAAARRRR!"
"Hahahaha! This is my glorious Black Dark Wyvern… Do you like it, Arthurious? THIS is an actual monster! Not whatever the heck you were given… Admire its power, and admire our bond…" Laughed Hectarious, showing Arthurious his left hand as he had the mark of a wyvern's head as a tattoo.
"See this? this is a Bond Tattoo… it formed just some time ago naturally!" Laughed Hectarious. "With his, there's no way I will lose this stupid war, I'll become the Emperor!"
"B-Bond Tattoo?! It can't be…" Said Arthurious in shock.
Bond Tattoos were special tattoos that were born after a monster trainer and their monster generated a very powerful bond together, it allowed the two to even combine their minds and gain greater clarity in battle, alongside a second brain for the monster, with good coordination, it can become an amazing tool, and additionally, the transfer of mana into the monster pets becomes swiftly, and the trainer is even allowed to use some of the power of the monster with the tattoo, albeit very limited, and prohibited in this tournament too.
Unlike his brother Hectarious, Arthurious had yet to make any bond with his monster pets, and felt rather disappointed with himself, perhaps he really wasn't deserving of someone as awesome as Blackie? Well, he felt like this despite having raised him with so much love and dedication for all these years…
Maybe there was something that he had missed out in this time, and he deeply regretted it, sadly. However, Arthurious couldn't falter here, he quickly summoned his Blackie, to show to his brother how much he had changed…
"Blackie, come out!"
TRUUUM!
