Chapter 903 - You Will Fight Grandmasters
Chapter 903 - You Will Fight Grandmasters
Doaf stood all in awe and silence beside Arthur without even believing his eyes or ears. He turned to look at Arthur while feeling he was seeing a mythical being, one who could create miracles with a snap of a finger.
"How..." he was shocked with such a twist while Arthur only smiled before he started to laugh.
"And I, Willy, accept you as a master," Arthur said before his face suddenly turned serious, "I'm going against all the dark clans, not those weak ones in the lower realms, but those who live in your high realms. Serve me well and let us vanquish evil together. Our next fight is going against grandmasters, so be ready for a brutal fight."
The mage named Jud raised his head while his face showed a shocking expression. He never expected serving such a mage from a low realm would turn into this.
Fighting against each other in one clan was a normal thing. There was no real hatred between clansmen, but only a challenging spirit.
Ego of each mage, especially the special ones, was enough to drive everyone to clash against their clansmen for superiority and power.
Jud and his elite forces used to serve their old master for one goal, to rule supreme over the clan.
However this new master of his went beyond that. He declared with such simplicity his war against the big dark clans, and promised a fight against grandmasters even as a start.
How couldn't Jud and others down below be shocked by what they heard? After all their hatred against the dark clans of the high realms was genuine. They lived their lives to satisfy one desire, to see them burn.
"Are you... sure?" Jud asked with doubt, "we were informed you live in a low realm now. How could..."
Arthur raised his hand to stop him before he casually said:
"I've already fought against two dark angel mages, defeated and trapped one as a hostage and the other had to make a deal of peace with me. Of course I can't trust the words of such a twisted soul, but this is me. Don't ever doubt my words..."
Doaf saw it was his moment to step in and thus for he took a few steps forwards while his voice roared all over this world:
"My young master isn't someone normal. He has fought against dark clans since he was young. He even went up to the higher realms, saved my grandmaster's mages and fought a big war to save the cauldron world. He is well respected and renowned across all realms. His name is like thunder, making all of his enemies shiver. And his enemies aren't those weak mages you always fight against, they are the elites of the big dark clans and grandmasters of many dark clans."
Doaf's words forced silence over this place. Everyone here knew who Doaf was, and despite their previous conflicts they knew he wouldn't tell lies or try to brag about fake things.
"Get ready," Arthur snapped his fingers and a portal appeared next, "we will have a grand war in less than ten hours."
Arthur moved towards the portal while Doaf delayed for a few moments. He looked at Jud. For him he knew how strong and special Jud was. He wasn't any inferior to him. And the bronzed killer force wasn't something to be reckoned with.
"Mark my words," Doaf said in an honest way as they now were both in the same team, "serve my young master well and you'll see heavens beyond your recognition."
He then turned around and vanished from this world, leaving Jud and his men shocked by what happened.
"Everything went well?" Amera seemed to be startled and worried over Arthur.
"It's fine now," Arthur gave her a warm smile to reassure her anxiety, "let's go. We need to reach there before more reinforcements arrive."
Doaf came out next before they started to travel. In the middle of their travels, they asked Doaf about what happened inside that world.
At first Arthur went in all alone, something normal and natural, before a portal opened and Doaf suddenly went in.
That meant things didn't go well at first. Doaf simply explained things to them, saying that Arthur gained a big aid from his grandmaster. A force that was able to relieve a lot of pressure over them.
However Arthur had another plan for them.
He knew he wasn't fighting a direct and honest war with his enemies. So using up all his strong cards at once wasn't wise.
'I will keep them for the stressful moments,' he decided after a long time of thinking about this.
He was tempted to release them and send them all around in smaller teams to hastily expand his territory. However doing so would mean he would be left without a shield and a sword back home.
Arthur had many unfinished business at his empire. He needed to strengthen and stabilize his reign over his subjects using other means of power.
The old discussion about starting a strong economy started to flash again in front of his eyes. Besides, he had to think about enforcing laws here.
In his days back at the sect, there were a lot of known laws that breaking them had punishment. However he also was well aware that these laws couldn't be used on regular humans.
He needed to think of other laws to make their lives stable. He also needed to find a way to crack the defensive shields around the settlements, those strengthened by the grandmasters from higher realms.
To do so he needed to be sure of Agnus' safety and make best use of those who were left to him at the castle of the sky.
They were all supposed to be prodigies, people with special talents and exceptional minds. It was their time to shine and help him strengthen his empire.
As for the bronzed killer force, he would prefer to let them guard the vast territory of his empire. It was pointless to have grand armies marching all over the corners of the universe when the base of the empire was left defenseless.
One couldn't rage wars while his home was on fire. And thus he decided to form a guard force that would keep his empire safe.
And when things went south, he would use this hidden sword to slash his enemies at their throats.
