Tales Of The Mighty Dragonair

Chapter 111 - A Trap!

Couple of hours ago when he walked in, the vibe he got was very serious, but now these mages acted like they didn't care about fighting.

'It's a show then, it's a trap,' he finally realized what was going on here. without delaying he sent a bird wing to Amelia, asking them to abort the mission, and reporting the treason of Kin to them.

'So, you lured the tiger from the mountains so you can kill all his clan? Such a nice act indeed,' Arthur commended silently the brilliance of this plan, and that made him suspect this Kin even more.

'This isn't a mind of a simple man, but when I was with him, I didn't feel much danger at all,' he thought to himself, while trying to recall the meeting with him from beginning to end.

'Something is fishy here,' he thought calmly, 'this isn't just Kin, this is someone taking over Kin's identity,' he jumped to this conclusion after giving it enough thoughts.

Arthur looked to the door of his hut, then to the hole which Kin told him about. He felt great vigilance towards this, and now he had the feeling that his cover was blown from the first moment he walked here, and he fell directly into his enemy's trap.

He hated much to be played out like this!

'So, you wanted me to go out? You seem to be very trusting in your abilities,' he muttered to himself, while receiving a bird's wing from Amelia telling him they would retreat and change their plans for now, plus asking him to be cautious.

His initial plan was about turning into a dragon, but now as he was facing such a cunning enemy, he decided to change his plans, hiding his own trump card to the time where using it would be a game changing.

He then went to the hole in the ground, knocking on the cover until he found it, moved it away, before entering inside.

He knew he was walking into the enemy's trap directly, but he had to make sure of something. If he was this enemy, then he would take out all his main forces, spreading them outside the camp, waiting for him to leave and summon his troops.

The words he said to Kin before he left would make Kin suspicious of his next move. This wasn't an enemy who would overestimate his strength, but rather one who would know exactly his own, and knew better his enemy's.

The moment he jumped into the hole, he found himself in an underground tunnel. It wasn't that big, but enough for him to walk with his back slightly bent. He moved in utter silence, for tens of meters, until he found the tunnel to reach an end, with an opening on the top of it.

He reached under the hole, stayed away from it so no one could spot him, and waited. At first he didn't hear anything, but after one hour of waiting, those up there got really bored and started to speak.

"Our leader is mistaken, this fish didn't come out yet."

"Hush, he might come at any moment."

"Even if he did, we have most of our army here, and if he didn't move till dawn, we will come into his hut and kill him."

"Our leader is quite nervous tonight, I don't know why!"

"She is always like this when trying to set a trap to a strong foe, so don't let your guards down."

"I think our leader is overestimating the enemy's capabilities! We should go straight to his hut and kill him, or rather better to kill him when he comes for the first time!"

"Hush, she is coming here, don't speak!"

Arthur didn't stay at his place for another moment, returning as fast as he could back to his hut. He knew that the leader of them had a mysterious mind reading or thoughts revealing ability, such a monstrous one indeed.

The moment he returned to his hut, he closed the opening again and sat on his bed. 'So you are a she!' he muttered, while recalling that softness he felt when he patted on Kin's shoulders. 'That's interesting,' he muttered, as he loved dealing with strong female cultivators back in his days as a cultivator, and even doing dual cultivation with them.

As he sat on his bed, he thought about his next move. His time here was limited, and thus he needed to do a devastating blow to them, making them lose as many mages as possible, plus he had to escape from here.

'Ok, let's get started then,' he muttered, before standing up from his place, going outside, with a crazy plan in his head. The moment he went outside his hut, his presence was masked by the darkness of the night, but he was sure he was closely watched.

This leader wouldn't leave his hut unwatched, and he knew each movement from him would be closely monitored and reported back to the leader.

However he didn't care. his goal was so near to him that even a bird's wing would seem much slower than his move. He directly went to the wall, which was ten meter only away from his hut. Once there, he didn't delay, as he put his hand on the ground, and a huge carcass suddenly appeared out of nowhere, residing partly over the wall, crushing it into small pieces.

The sudden development caused the mages inside and outside the camp to be alerted, however Arthur didn't stop here, as he went up the carcass, where he took out many amounts of ores and scattered them around the carcass, letting them fall from the height of it.

This all happened within no time, giving the mages eyeing him no chance to act at all. Just as he finished doing that, a mighty roars came from the forest around the camp, literally from everywhere.

"So it begins," he smiled, evilly, as he anticipated the monster tide coming to devastate the camp, killing everyone here.
