Tales Of The Mighty Dragonair

Chapter 245 - Finishing All Preparations Before Going Out On Adventure

Arthur didn't have any papers right now, so he had to improvise.

"Take this brush and paint the map on the ground," he said, while handing over the brush he used all this time.

It was initially a tree branch with many leaves, but after all his uses it transformed into a real brush. Its leaves stuck on the wooden shaft, with the end of it was pointed, smooth, and flexible; an end that could absorb blood and paint it perfectly in thin strikes or broad according to his own will.

She took the brush after cancelling her transformation, glanced weirdly at it as she said:

"This map will be seen by others afterwards."

Arthur understood her worries. "Don't worry, I will paint the whole area with this blood then," he pointed to the small container of the blood he was using in drawing and making his runes.

She understood his point and so she started working on the ground while asking:

"What do you plan to do next?"

"I will go inside these secret pillars locations and will harvest all the pillars inside."

"Harvest them? can you do that?"

"Sure, however it will be a tough battle, and I can only go alone. I need Tina to stay here, as those surrendered villagers aren't trusted by me currently," he recalled that he didn't clear their curses, and that made him wary.

"It seems you need to make some preparations and need my help as well. Go and finish yours, but leave enough meat for me. this transformation is still taxing on this fragile new body of mine."

Arthur glanced silently at her and said nothing. He didn't move, still, as he didn't fully trust her.

"What? Don't you trust me?"

He didn't reply, only watching her working, making her sigh a little. She knew he just knew her, and in a very weird situation. Even after telling him what he needed to know, he still doubted her for a bit.

He waited for half an hour until she finished drawing everything. As she finished, he started to memorize this star looking map, feeling much excited the more he examined it.

All these stars were obviously the locations of the hidden pocket worlds with pillars. He knew going there alone might be quite risky, but he had to work fast and hammer the iron while being hot.

He knew the clan might not be aware yet of their losses here, and when that happened they wouldn't hesitate to invade here and try to close the portal he had with the pillars.

Or at least fortifying these places with mighty armies he couldn't kill alone!

"Clan head, you called for me?" as he was painting the ground with the blood covering all the tracks here of this painting, Lily appeared coming from outside, while her face showed how delighted and excited she was.

"Sure, have you brought back everyone?" he asked.

"Yes, all are now working here, and the warriors are guarding the place per your orders."

"Good," he nodded in content, while her eyes got attracted to this unique drawing, partly covered with blood, on the ground. She felt how special it was, and despite her curiosity she didn't ask anything.

Arthur was trying to cover all the tracks here, making her realize he didn't want anyone to know a single word about it. "Go and gather all the surrendered villagers and warriors here who still have their slave marks. I will be finished soon and come out to free them all," he said.

"Alright," she didn't stay and moved outside executing his orders. Sara stood on the side, silently watching him working slowly and steadily, covering everything.

As he finished, he didn't speak a word while storing everything inside his ring before heading to the outside, followed by Sara.

When they exited the building, they found Lily had already summoned a huge number of villagers here, and they stood in silence waiting for his orders.

"Listen, one by one move towards me, and then after freeing yourselves, go and continue your work," he shouted, before moving a couple of steps forward, waiting for the first one to advance.

The freeing process was quite long, as it took him one day to free all of these hundreds of thousands of villagers from the slave mark. Their numbers were higher than he expected, making him glad he decided to free them now before venturing on his long journey.

Part of them were the warriors who surrendered to him, and he let them serve him as warriors, joining his small army, doubling it.

Once finished, the whole village looked quite desolate, in contrast to the huge numbers that were staying here in the past hours. "Tina, Lily, come with me inside," he ordered, as he currently had to arrange things here.

The two went inside, one small girl walking on the side of her flying per, and one huge dragon. Once they reached the floor covered with blood with two portals there, Arthur started arranging things here.

"I'm going for a rough long battle where I won't be able to give any help here in a short span of time. are you prepared to defend this place on your own?" he asked, directing his question to Lily.

"I can, but I might need the help of big sis Amelia and others here," after a moment of silence she said, expressing her ability to do so.

"Good, then here is what you are going to do. Send for them to come here and aid you in strengthening the defenses here. as for all these ores, and the ones extracted from the mine, you can ask Madly to craft more rings, and make all warriors with flying pets to act as the transportation unit," he then took out large pile of bird's wings, handed them to her as he added:

"Take these and start forming your own communication network."

She took the bird's wings while asking:

"Is there a chance the clan might attack us here?"
