"You helped, and that matters," he simply replied, "are they about to stop coming?"

"I think so," she nodded, "the numbers now decreased from hundreds of thousands into mere thousands. Even two of these forests ceased to send out any monster at all," she added, while pointing to two different directions.

"Really?!" he ate another meat, before adding, "let's go and check these out," he then went towards her, climbed over her back, and sat comfortable over her smooth scales.

Strangely enough, riding her like this made him feel more comfortable, and she was more shy!

"Hang tight then," she nervously said, before soaring to the sky, heading directly towards one of the two emptied forests.

When they were in the air, Arthur found what she mentioned was correct; two of the five hidden forests were now silent, not sending a single monster from them. as for the other three, only thousands kept coming out from them, and this meant this fight would soon end.

"I need to come back later and collect all these bodies," he muttered when he noticed the thick pile of monsters on the ground, covering a huge stretch of the forest around the hill area.

It wasn't an exaggeration to say the incoming monsters weren't stepping on the ground, but on the bodies of dead and wounded monsters.

"I have stored many already, do you need more?" she asked, with a surprise in her tone.

"Sure, my city will have millions, and I want for all of them to have pets," he casually replied, while setting his gaze fixed over the hidden forest they were now approaching fast.

The place wasn't any different than others, as Arthur sat on the back of Tina, facing a wide place between two normal trees. If not for him and Tina to locate this place from earlier, none of them would be able to detect it now.

"Well hidden place, that might be problematic," he thought out loud, while rubbing the back of Tina with the palm of his hand. Strangely this simple move made both of them feel comfortable, and that made Tina be more shy.

"Go in?" she asked, trying to forget about this warm feeling of his touch.

"We came, we should say hello to those inside, right?" he replied with a chuckle, and the next moment she jumped directly into the emptiness between the two trees.

The moment she passed through the hidden entrance, a huge desolate place appeared in front of their eyes. Saying it was a forest was a wrong expression indeed, as Arthur never saw a forest with such darkness before!

Black roots, black soil, black trunk, black leaves, even the fruits were black!

"Is the whole world like this?" Tina softly muttered, as this place made her have a creepy feeling.

"It's a cursed place, as they injected darkness in here for such a long time," he muttered, before not finding anything useful to him here, so he added, "fly over, let's have a wider view."

She hesitated for a moment, before flying to the sky and spreading her wings softly on the air current. The clouds were also dark, even the air when coming in fast, forming a turbulent visible current, it showed long curly black lines!

This was a total black world! and in it, no single living thing remained; not a monster, not a human, not even a bird!

"I don't like this place," she muttered, while Arthur just glanced back, to see the place they just came from was formed in a huge gate, standing alone, with nothing to hold.

"It's a gate world, that means this is a smaller pocket space. Does it have a heart then?" he muttered, as this gate resembled, somehow, to the pocket world gates in his previous world.

Any pocket world would have a heart, a central place that controlling it meant controlling the whole place. for Arthur, he didn't mind raising his own dark monsters, at least gaining such huge pocket worlds would make him have much spacious spaces to store and raise his monsters.

"I just hope it could be moved, not fixed to a mysterious place," he said, as to obtain this pocket world, he had to sever the connection with the place he just came from.

If this world was small, he could easily do that while linking it to his body. if it was larger, he would link it to his own storage ring. In any case of these, he would easily link it to himself, making him safely return to his entry point.

However, if this pocket world was huge, he wouldn't be able to link it to anything belonging to him. so, the risk of binding it to him would be great, as the opposite would happen, and he would be bound to the world, moved permanently to here, cutting his relation to the outside world forever!

"The whole world is just this dark cursed forest, extending to no end! There isn't even a single mountain or hill here!" Tina said after ten minutes of flying here. Arthur was also astonished by the current size of this forest, as he never thought of it to be this vast!

Even flying high and for minutes didn't bring him the impression they had reached the end of this world. "A large world, sigh," he inwardly muttered with regret, as this would seem not a place to be taken home.

"Just roam around the gate for hundreds of miles, these dark mages and warriors just appeared after ten hours, that means they live in a far place from here," after thinking for quite some time, he realized that the appearance of these dark groups wasn't related to his effect on the echo system here, but related to how far they initially were from the teleportation gate.

Tina nodded, and she silently flew through the air, looking for anything unusual than these creepy dark trees. She was vigilant, as she didn't like the place here, even for a single bit.

As for Arthur, he wasn't feeling eerie like her at all. While the world was quiet and peaceful, he started thinking back again to the last words of that dying dark mage.

"it seems dragonairs had some relations with the dark side after all," after long thinking, he reached this conclusion, not based only on the words of that saying made, but also recalling the bitter experience he had with that cursed book!

It wasn't a single case, it seemed, but a trait of his cult! However, as he wasn't that fan of the dark art, he didn't like this, and decided not to follow this dark route at all.

"They had their own heritage and thoughts, and I had my own ideals and goals; I won't be a dark mage in this world, like I wasn't a dark cultivator in the past one," he said to himself, finally clearing all the doubts and disturbing thoughts he had inside him about this matter.

"Oh, look out there, isn't that a strange thing?" Tina suddenly shouted, and her voice came hoarse and strangely loud after all this period of silence.
