Tales Of The Mighty Dragonair

Chapter 455 - The Bet

He turned his gaze upon the runes where he landed his blood over them. "Activate the slave contract," he muttered before he and the fiercely resisting Anna with no result were shrouded under a veil of dense screen.

This didn't take more than ten minutes, and when he appeared again he glanced over her in surprise. "So long to make you a slave?"

"Damn you! Release me now!" she cursed out loud while her body twitched under the immense pressure of the garden.

Over her shoulder, and rising up to her neck, a tattoo of a blue dragon appeared there, resonating with the tattoo he had on his right hand.

He raised his hand to her face. "See that? I can easily kill you now."

"Kill me then! I don't want to live the life of a traitor."

"We'll see…" he snapped his fingers and the immense pressure over her instantly vanished.

"I'll kill you!" she shouted in rage before jumping over him. Yet another snap of his fingers made her slam heavily on the ground once more. "A fierce animal like you will be slowly tamed with strength," he calmly said before turning towards the dense shield nearby.

"Feel free to go and pump your head onto this, and every now and then I'll come to make you suffer, or…" he stopped as he turned to face her, "come with me and learn from my masters and be stronger to serve me better."

"I would never be a snitch!"

"We'll see about it," he snapped his fingers before the next moment his body changed into the dragon form.

"If not my real powers aren't sealed, I swear I would easily have you crushed!"

"Hilarious," Arthur laughed amusingly while his golden dragon complained again yet he ignored his remarks. "Ifs don't work in the real world dear," he walked away from her while she kept standing in her place glaring fiercely at him.

She watched him leave before she promised: "One day I'll repay all this in folds!"

"She is fierce, I like her," the golden commented before adding, "but there is something that bothers me."

"Don't say my silent roars again," Arthur was delighted by the result he just achieved. He now had two pawns in hand. Despite her refusal, he knew with time she would have her mind changed.

"Your roars are a thing you shouldn't mention or use for now," the golden dragon sighed before adding, "she has some sort of annoying power embedded deeply inside her soul. I can feel it, yet I can't determine what power she has."

"Like my roars?" Arthur was surprised to hear this knowledge, "is it a soul type attack as well?"

"I frankly don't know," the golden dragon said, "but from this aura alone I can tell she was someone strong back in the higher realms."

"Good to have her sealed before coming here then," Arthur laughed as the stronger she was the better she would serve him. He wasn't worried as he had his seal over her soul; a mere thought would kill her.

"Stop using those damned roars!" the golden dragon roared in pain.

"Ding! I've moved almost everyone, you are ready to go back now."

"Thanks for the trouble," Arthur waved his wings to head directly towards the place where his masters gathered.

Just as he got closer fast to it, he noticed the great numbers gathered there. "Wow, how much have you brought so far?" he asked in surprise as he never thought the numbers would be this large.

"Ding! Aren't you the one asking everyone to join?" the system was speechless as this was slightly lesser than what he initially expected.

Arthur landed in the center of this big mess. The moment he arrived, everyone got silenced like they were dreading his presence.

"Wow, you know you made all of us lose?" Amanda laughed the moment he landed and canceled his transformation.

"Lose what?" he asked as he didn't understand her meaning.

"They had a bet," Amelia smiled before laughing, "a bet around how much you'll bring with you."

"And?" he curiously asked.

"Just told you," Amanda laughed, "they lost, we all lost."

"I'm glad you are happy in your loss," he smiled before asking, "but what does it have to do with me?"

"Who said it has anything to do with you?" she teased him.

"Your face told everything," he laughed as she wasn't a bit sad or regretful about the bet, not like other masters around. "C'mon, tell me what was that all about?"

"They lost, and they will aid us with double time than their disciples," Amelia said with a chuckle.

"We can't stay here forever," Slone groaned before adding, "we have to calculate it according to the time in this world," he added while helplessly shaking his head. "And what are those? Have you just put a prize over our head or something?" he added while turning around to glance over everyone here.

"Hahaha," Arthur laughed on his comment, "master Slone, these are just the crème of croup in my world here," he proudly said before adding, "plus I didn't plan to make them all learn from you."

"Thanks goodness," Mr. E heaved a long sigh of relief. "Then why did you bring all of them here? Trying to scare us?"

"Wait a minute, if they won't join us in the training, then we haven't lost the bet yet," Otman hurried to say.

"C'mon, don't be this bitter over such a small loss," Amanda laughed while giving Arthur a glance to silence him.

"They are here to take a test first," Arthur didn't heed by her warning, "those capable enough to prove themselves to you will be selected."

"Oh, you want us to be the judges, great," Cesile laughed before adding, "this bet is my win, not loss, hehehehe."

"Don't be so rash to jump to such a conclusion," Mr.. E laughed as well, "I will put the harshest test ever for those boys here."
