Chapter 444 - Let's Be Friends
"I can't," the berserker shook his head, "I just told you, I have a reputation to keep and having a reputation in the dark world is very hard."
"Why don't you shift to the light side then?" Arthur proposed.
"The pacifist side?" the berserker sneered, "no offense kid but the side you're upon is really boring."
"What about joining my side?" Arthur proposed again, in different and more clear words.
"What do you mean by that? You are like anyone else on your side, a pacifist!"
Arthur paused as an idea popped up in his head. "Can you travel across this world fast and check it out for me?" he said, without replying directly to the berserker words.
"What do you aim to do with that?" the berserker doubted Arthur's intentions. "Listen kid, if you think you can fool me and run away then you are dreaming. I already have your aura in my nose. No matter where you run to, even to a much lower realm, I'll easily find you," the berserker threatened in such an angry tone.
"I didn't mean that," Arthur shook his head before adding, "what I did here made those up there annoyed. Imagine that, what would possibly be annoying from a kid like me towards those big names and clans up there?"
The face of the berserker showed his puzzlement for a moment.
"They aren't that smart clans, don't depend heavily on his mind," the golden dragon seemed to guess what Arthur's wanted to achieve here, so he sincerely advised.
And Arthur noticed from the trouble over the berserker face the true words he just heard. "I have made a lot of ruckus in this world. I'm not a pacifist, despite peace is my aim yet I intend to reach it through rivers of blood and storms of war," he directly said his intentions.
"Storms of war and rivers of blood…" the berserker repeated Arthur's words before adding, "good saying lad, it seems I need to go out and take a stroll first," he said before pointing out towards Arthur, "don't try to run away," he warned.
"I won't," Arthur said before adding, "I promise. I'll just keep my hands busy killing those weaklings down there," Arthur pointed his claw towards the ground where two hundred thousand warriors were holding their breaths waiting for the epic fight.
"Oho, I like you even more," the berserker laughed before adding, "any clue where you want me to look at?"
"Just take a stroll at the central zone where I established my city. I already conquered the middle sized dark clan nearby, raging wars at the moment inside their territories aiming for more people and resources," Arthur paused before finding it strange yet he admitted it, "and there is one big clan other than this one that I had just crushed. I dunno its name to be honest, as I don't mind asking my enemies about their names."
"Why is that?" the berserker asked in a very amused face and tone.
"Because they will be dead the next moment," Arthur smiled and controlled himself from laughing out loud. After all this berserker didn't make up his mind yet.
"Kakaka, I like you more," the berserker laughed in a bizarre way while his body shook. "Alright, you keep toying here while I'll take a full tour of the entire world."
The next moment Arthur saw the berserker waving the sword while his stick holding hand started to boom on the drum, causing explosive sounds not anything related to music.
"Swoosh!" the sword was so mighty enough to cleave apart the air and the next second a dark world appeared behind that rapidly expanding hole. "See you later," the berserker said before he walked along with his annoying booming drumming inside that hole before it closed as fast as it appeared.
"Wow, that's such a brutal foe," Arthur muttered in surprise.
"You played him well," the golden dragon commended, "what do you plan to do next? Run away or stay and fight?"
"I'll stay for sure," Arthrur shrugged, "if I can gain such an ally, then I'll be more at ease for now."
"Ding! Your enemies are getting more restless, I recommend to consider the wise saying of that fool," the system said and this time Arthur couldn't keep his laughs, and his silent roars made him about to die, fire getting wild again.
"I know I should lay low," Arthur muttered before adding, "but first I need to take what I fought hard to get."
"This clan's territory and population?" the golden dragon asked.
"Not just this one," Arthur shrugged, "that unknown clan that I just destroyed with masters as well."
"Ding! There is a star connecting to their base inside your star map," the system said the good news before all of sudden Arthur had a piece of paper appeared out of thin air in front of him.
"A bird's wing?" he muttered before holding and unfolding it.
"Ahem," he cleared his throat before shaking his head, "These two… sigh."
The bird's wing was from Amelia, and she spoke about the presence of Mr. E and Amanda with many academy masters in the city for quite some time now.
She complained of their thorough investigation in everything. Even some of the masters went with the armies dispatched to claim Olor's agreed upon population and resources.
"I have to accept that," he shook his head before muttering, "they should stay there until we return to the academy," he took the bird's wing and reassured her long paragraphs of worry upon him after hearing what happened from Amanda and Cesile.
He also told her to wait until they return to the academy and don't inform the others about his whereabouts or even about this letter.
He let the bird's wing be burned away before he turned his gaze finally upon the two hundred thousand enemies down there. "Sorry I kept you waiting for long… worthless sheep," he muttered before waving his wings and descending upon them like fate.
He kept pouring out his fire until it completely covered the entire array. "Tsk, it's really tough," he muttered as after long minutes of waiting, many holes only appeared and his fire didn't manage to completely destroy the barrier. "I should go and help that explosive girl," he smiled before waving his wings again to appear over the smaller group in the distance.
Then he opened his mouth and started coating the array with his fire.
"Yeah, gimme more, the harder the better, yeah!"
Underneath him, that queen kept jumping from a place to another, letting her body be covered with the fallen fire through the holes in the array.
"Damn, this girl…" he helplessly shook his head, "I'm not doing this for you, just keep fighting and leave this for later," he shouted at her yet his words were wasted.
She kept running after his fire like a little girl dancing under the rain.. After a couple of shouts he gave up, while jumping from side to side, making sure his fire would stay ignited for as long as it took to burn away the inside defenses and these stubborn arrays.
