Tales Of The Mighty Dragonair

Chapter 671 - Being Followed

'No more city building?' Gege read his mind already and could get what he was intending to do.

"We have no time to waste for these now," he nodded while penetrating the sky, "let's take all the population in. leave the fighting mages together to train and the rest make them learn from Deem's and Agnus' men or help to make the mechas. Also send part here to help in building the forts and the city."

'That's… a lot of preparation,' she sighed, 'is this sect that important to you?'

"Far more important than you think," Arthur decisively said, "let's hope I can find something familiar out there."

Arthur was moved towards a new location, and this time the world's will seemed to pay more attention to him as he appeared just next to a very large settlement.

"This… sigh, this world's will really has temper," he muttered before moving towards the place, "there's a great disparity between here and the last place."

'Ding! The last place was much more organized and looked slightly prepared for war than here,' the system said.

'Should I notify them about your presence?' Gege asked.

"Indeed, let's get the operation of army gathering started."

Arthur's arrival was already revealed by his flying dragon body. With the help of the tree, everyone here rejoiced to know about his identity.

Without further ado they agreed to join his forces and he simply left dozens of portals here before jumping to the clouds.

"Next," he muttered before reaching above the cloud layer and then let his body fall.

For two days he kept jumping from one place to another, amassing a really considerable army of mages and villagers.

Each place he visited he would leave behind dozens of portals for the dwellers to pass through and enter his garden world. He also left instructions for them to spread the word and let as many as possible to join him.

Once entered his garden world Gege would take the responsibility in dividing them either as fighting mages or workers. Those mages were now numbered in hundreds of thousands already.

As for the workers, part was given to Amelia to make the mechas, part was given to Agnus to craft different machines, part was asked to build cities here and live inside them under the supervision of Deem's men, and the last part was sent to the war city where they would help in either various construction projects or go out to explore the mines and extract ores.

Yet at the beginning of the third day a new development appeared.

'Ding! The world's will is warning you,' the system suddenly said, 'Ding! You've been followed.'

"Oh, they are fast to catch up," Arthur smiled in curiosity, "who is following me?"

'Ding! From the description of the world's will it's the same giant that visited your palace before you started all this.'

Arthur's eyes narrowed as that folk seemed a bit dangerous without doubt. "is he near?" he asked, "can the world's will interfere to delay him?"

'Ding! She tried but he is using some gear to interfere with her powers upon him,' the system sighed, 'Ding! And according to her he is getting so close to you. All she could do is to delay him, no more.'

"Gege," Arthur didn't hesitate to take this matter so seriously, "use the tree and send a message to the supreme leaders of mine."

Gege didn't need to hear anymore as she already read what he was thinking about. Leave it to me,' she said, 'And I'll leave dozens of portals here connected directly to the portals I left there.'

"Good," Arthur nodded, "let's hope they arrive at the appropriate time."

'Ding! Will you use them to deter him?' the system asked, 'Ding! As far as the world will say he is all alone.'

"It won't harm to have some bodyguards, right?" Arthur smiled before adding, "I also doubt he will act if I have some company but there is also a possibility to have a gear to bring an army here."

'This is a very realistic possibility,' Gege said, 'and the funny thing is that you also can do the same.'

"I know," Arthur laughed before turning around and glanced at the settlement he just appeared next to, "let's subdue this place first and wait for my dear visitor later."

Arthur dealt with this place as he did before and then he waited this time and didn't hurry to leave. He stood a couple of miles away from the portals and the settlement before the system suddenly said: 'Ding! He is here.'

"And them?"

'They are already inside my body.'

"Good," Arthur didn't ask to bring them as he wanted first to know what this envoy wanted to do.

"It seems I underestimated you," the envoy didn't take longer than five minutes to appear in front of him and say this with a faint smile over his face.

"I didn't know you were trying to train your body by running around the world," Arthur smiled back as he calmly said.

"You are funny," the envoy laughed shortly before adding, "but it's a given that you have some courage. I don't know how you managed to know about my arrival but I have some guesses already."

"And?" Arthur didn't follow his line of talk as he coldly asked.

"I'm here to understand more about your intentions," the envoy said, "if you wanted war from the start then we can satisfy you without the need to jump all over the place like a monkey."

"Oh, you can tell jokes… amazing," Arthur sneered, "but what's that had to do with you? My war with you is on hold, or do you want me to go to your armies and hunt them down now?"

"I bet you dream about that," the envoy laughed, "but you don't dare to do that."

"I dare to do whatever I like," Arthur shrugged, "but I can't see why you are here though… Are you lost or something? Need a lift? A guide?"

The eyes of the envoy became cold as he suddenly asked in threatening tone:

"What prevents me from going up there and cutting your heart from your chest?"
