Tales Of The Mighty Dragonair

Chapter 354 - The Sudden Intervention!

Despite the reappearance of the dense mushroom cloud, he was easily able to see through it. His eyesight was connected with the arrows, so anywhere they went he could see.

Yet it greatly limited his ability to evade the fire, as he was surprised by them a couple of times; with no time to evade!

Five minutes passed like this, and the monster ended up being burdened with deep wounds and a bloodied body. It was now greatly weakened, and this appeared well on the fire it sprayed.

The fire amplitude decreased in size and range. Their destructive nature diminished gradually, even spraying it now on the cloud around the monster wasn't enough to dissipate it.

Arthur knew his victory was near, yet he didn't know if this monster still hid another card or not. Plus, he didn't know if he could kill it in the next five minutes.

"Attack him you fool!"

One of the masters was so angry that he shouted at the monster, reprimanding it. It seemed they paid a hefty price to summon this monster, and they wouldn't accept anything but Arthur's head in return.

Arthur wasn't intoxicated in his triumph so far. The moment the monster started to run towards him he started to run as well; in the total opposite direction!

This kept the distance between the two the same!

"Damn you! What is this worm doing? Why didn't you bring up a killer!"

One of those masters couldn't keep his calm anymore, as he bellowed on others, blaming them.

"Shut up, you were there when we decided to stall for time don't you?!! Why didn't you disagree at that time? Huh?" the master who was in control of this trial retorted back, and Arthur understood everything now.

They wanted to corner him to the rule of time, so he wouldn't be able to escape his fate anymore. Yet they underestimated him, greatly underestimated his abilities.

He kept running, and the monster kept chasing; while his arrows kept thundering on top of that monster's head.

The attacks finally managed to cause such a severe wound to the monster that one of its heads was chopped off! It was two minutes apart from the deadline, and then Arthur decided to hasten things here.

"Come here my sword," he muttered before taking out the bloodthirsty sword. It was calmly lying in his hand, not showing any sign of being alive!

"Tsk, you are such a lucky bastard! Even in your hibernation and evolution you gained such a chance to suck this monster's blood dry!"

Arthur didn't delay as he used the moment of the monster agony and threw the sword away. He tried to control the trajectory of the sword, feeling hard doing that.

Yet he managed to shift its course at the final ends, making it be inserted at the big wound created from the severed head.

"Roar!"

"Roar!"

"Roar!"

"Roar!"

And this invoked the monster to roar out in deep pain, stopping in its tracks and even falling on the ground motionless.

"Good kid," Arthur laughed before starting to focus on launching his arrows non-stop. Sounds of explosion dominated the scene, and during the next minute; three more heads were chopped and only one remained.

The monster didn't have any strength to even raise this head; it was leaning on the ground like a dying snake!

And Arthur didn't hold back! He knew he had less than a minute here!

The atmosphere was quite tense, as everyone was watching, counting seconds, hoping they would fly away.

Yet Arthur moved fast, closed up the distance between him and that monster. "It's all or none now," he muttered, knowing it was such a risky move to do that.

Yet he had no time to waste! Even the time needed for his arrows to reach their targets must be shortened.

As he stood in front of the dust cloud, he saw the shadow of the final head moving. There was only ten seconds, only ten seconds left so he didn't have time to evade.

The monster was accumulating its strength for such a last attack. The moment it opened its mouth, a ball of fire started to glow in front of Arthur's eyes.

"As if I would let you do that," he roared as well while aiming a dozen arrows towards the area holding the head. "Either you die or I!" Arthur released them and from such close distance they hit their mark instantly.

And the monster just had its last head chopped away, falling on the ground, exploding violently.

A sea of fire emerged centered around the severed head! Arthur didn't have time to waste anymore, as he didn't trust those bastards to announce his victory or approve it.

The next moment he jumped into the fire and dust, enduring the damage while putting his hand over the monster's body; sending it inside his garden.

"Dong! Dong! Dong! Dong!"

The sound of this strange and majestic bell rang, and Arthur didn't know what this even meant.

And the world around him ushered under heavy and deafening silence!

"Scram!"

The moment the master spoke, he shouted angrily at Arthur, who felt a giant hand hitting him sending him flying.

"Damn you, can't you accept defeat fairly?" he cursed back before finally vanishing into the tempest he came from.

His body ached! If not for the last damage he received from this dying monster's fire, he wouldn't be in such pain and agony now.

"Yet I won, hehehe," he was so amazed and excited, yet the next moment his body violently hit the ground.

"Boom!"

"What the hell?" Arthur exclaimed in shock and pain, while trying to stabilize his body fast. He came back, again to the arena he just left!

"What the hell are you doing here? Didn't I throw you back to your world?!!"

The master also was shocked the same as Arthur, which made the latter feel much doubt. "Are you playing tricks with me, sneaky old man? Send me ba…"

He was midway in his words when he felt a strange change in his body.

He was so sensitive to any energy other than his! And at this moment his body had a strange energy massively invading his!

"This aura… again?" the master muttered before the next moment an explosion of the aura occurred, instantly filling the entire place in a blink of an eye.

"What is going on?" Arthur muttered. He didn't feel any hostility coming from this aura, yet he didn't understand what was happening.

Back at the world he came from, his body was now shining with pure white light, like turning into a star. His body was raised midair, while the aura of the ancient world's will entered his body massively.

"Guardian… is he going to be alright?"

"Don't worry, dear. This is just an old account I need to settle."

Nara stood motionless with much worry over her face. She didn't doubt her guardian words, yet she was feeling odd and worried over Arthur.

The world's will didn't lie, as the next moment it filled the entire place she started to attack everyone; literally everyone.

"What is going on? Hurry and screw this boy back from the hole he came from!" one of the masters sensed the grave danger eyeing him and screamed in panic. Others shouted as well, yet the headmaster of them wasn't speaking at all.

"It's you…" he simply muttered these words before the world's will voice came, in a single voice this time, exposing her feminine tone:

"Yes, I told you I won't forget what you did. I came here to settle the old account between us."

Arthur was standing on the ground motionless, having no say in this. He glanced everywhere to see the entire world covered in a thick veil of pure whiteness.

Yet this veil couldn't prevent the painful screams or the shouts of panic coming from everyone here!

"Would I be able to come and level up again?" he directed his words to his system, only caring about this matter.

"Ding! Your trial is always controlled by the ancient will of your ancestor. You can come here again, and will have much better treatment than this time."

"I should thank her then," Arthur muttered despite knowing she didn't come here for his sake. "Ding! You should, after all she will be one of your sharpest blades in the future."

"I… I hope so."

He stayed in his place hearing nothing but sounds of explosions and screams of pain. He knew this was a brutal fight, a very high end fight he couldn't have a say at.

Yet he regretted not seeing everything happening! He wanted to know how the top people in this world fought and learned.

"Come with me," the soft sound of the world's will appeared suddenly in his ears. The next thing he felt was a strong traction force pulling him again. This time it was for real.

When he opened his eyes again, he wasn't surprised to see the thick aura that was surrounding his body. He was covered in white foamy clouds, like what appeared in the trial place.

"What was that all about?" he said. He was standing motionless there, watching the white clouds dissipate.

"None of your business," the screams appeared again, this time he wasn't fazed or intimidated by it. He crossed his arms while saying: "I proved my words, can't you show some appreciation at least and explain."

"Appreciation for what? It's you who was in danger not mine!"

"Tsk, you seem stubborn."

"Thank you."

Her answer silenced him. He only shook his head before turning to Nara. "Do you know anything?" he said, while taking the steps towards her.

"No, she… she seems to have her own issues."

Her answer wasn't helpful, and only his system might be.

"Ding! I can't read her mind, so…"

"Tsk," he turned to glance at the white fog, as against his expectations it remained there!

"Ding! Congratulations on completing your quest.. The quest had some intervention yet you managed to finish the tasks before that."
