Chapter 382 - The System Is Back
Those around started to move fast, and he saw many hurrying to their homes, taking out many things on wooden carts before exiting these buildings with all their family members.
As for the warriors, a group of them hurried to his way, seemingly wanting to ask about some issues of their own.
"Speak," he said even before this group of a hundred warriors reach him.
"Lord, we are very grateful to you," one of them said, looking strong and veteran by the long scar over his face. "but most of us came from different places," he paused before adding, "we aren't far from here, only one day walk and half running. We promise we will go and get back sooner than that."
Arthur understood his meaning and he didn't have any objection for that. "Alright, spread out and bring everyone you can," he said before stressing, "I won't stay here more than two days."
He had limited time in his visit to this world, and in less than two days he would have to return to the academy once more.
"Thanks… thanks a lot lord. We won't be delayed, I promise you," the warrior expressed his gratitude before running towards the outside. Arthur watched them move out, fanning everywhere like locust, while running with all their might towards the distance.
"If only I have more time," he sighed despite knowing he would return here in mere hours after leaving. "I hope the academy masters won't rain me with tasks that will take more time to do," he hoped, despite feeling those nasty elders of the council wouldn't let this happen.
'Ding! I'm back!'
After two hours of the end of this fight, and as he stayed on the roof of this building overseeing everything; his system finally returned online and greeted him.
"Finally," Arthur sighed, "I really missed you buddy."
'Ding! I warned you, I will be off for half a day and you will be greatly exhausted.'
The system's words brought back the bitter and confused memories he had about his trip to here. "I didn't see the map, I only went up and then lost my control and fell to find myself here."
'Ding! The map is the clouds! You passed it a long time before falling, hehehe,' the system laughed, as Arthur didn't know he already reached the map from the start and didn't need to take all the trouble. 'Ding! But as you went as high as you could, you managed to cross a large distance and come to such a remote place.'
"Do you mean…?"
'Ding! The higher you rise, the greater you fall, and the more distance you will travel.'
"Aha," Arthur nodded before glancing all around him, "can you start showing off portals? There are too many to take this time."
'Ding! And they have curses as well… I didn't even finish the previous batch of slaves, and now you added this enormous number!'
"Hehehe, don't grumble, I'm only doing the best I can."
'Ding! Indeed! I will scatter the portals now,' the system then started to show up portals all around the towns and villages.
"Listen up, all those ready to enter these portals and you will be safe," he shouted and his messages were delivered from mouth to mouth until everyone learnt about it.
They started to migrate, with eyes full of hopes and hearts binding with excitement. They lived their entire lives in misery and now it was the time for them to experience a brand new thing; freedom!
Arthur waited for an entire day and half while watching the endless stream of people passing through his portals. Half a day ago, many people started to show up from the distance, and now the entire region around him turned into such a crowded place!
"Wow, this clan… it's really a treasure trove!" he laughed while watching the great numbers coming and all the riches they brought with their wooden carts. He was excited to have all of them, and much more excited to have more coming without showing an end.
'Ding! Beware, your time here is about to end,' the system warned, 'Ding! You have roughly an hour to leave if you want to reach the academy at morning hours.'
"Yeah, it's about time," he sighed before adding, "but what about them?"
'Ding! Leave a message for them to wait in these villages and towns. After all you already cleared them entirely from any citizen and they looked like ghost towns.'
"Good," Arthur nodded before shouting at some warriors organizing the influx of migration. He left instructions and wrote to Amelia as well telling her to leave and bring with her Gor, Deem, and anyone who showed great talent.
"What about Tina?" Amelia instantly wrote back and he laughed when he read her words.
"Just bring her onboard," he replied while selecting the grand building he stood upon all this time and muttered: "Turn this building into a gate to the star map."
'Ding! Keep your hands steady,' the system then took care of everything and the building shone brightly for a couple of minutes before it returned to normal once more.
Yet a veil covered this building only visible to him. 'Ding! I used a disguise technique to hide the portal for now. Only you can see and use it,' the system explained, 'Ding! You can leave the moment you want.'
Arthur waited until it was the last minute before passing through the building. The influx stream here didn't stop, yet his orders were perfectly relayed.
The next moment he showed up at his star map, where he found his one hundred team, another hundred of new faces led by Gor and Deem, plus Tina.
"You finally decided to show up? Leaving me behind without saying a word? I'm mad at you!"she shouted the moment he appeared, yet her tone wasn't angry at all!
She seemed quite excited by the next adventure she was going to take. Seeing her like that made him recall what he thought of before; combining the two girls together; Cesile and Tina!
