Tales Of The Mighty Dragonair

The three descended smoothly through the forced opening in each defensive array, making them reach the ground at the base of the castle without any interruption.

However Arthur knew the real fight would only start right now! and he never intended to waste his time dealing with these warriors around them.

The three's appearance came to startle everyone, however, as Arthur expected, the leaders of those here were really experienced, as many shouts started to appear, gathering everyone together, and making them shift all their focus over the new enemies.

And instantly the three were surrounded by tens of thousands of warriors, all using the defensive arrays, to block the path for the three to move.

"Should we attack left?" Tina asked.

"Or right?" Sara added.

"Neither," Arthur shook his head, before he simply closed his eyes and went inside the heavenly garden necklace around his neck. He wasn't alone, as he collected a lot of population already, and many of the warriors who took all the time inside to rest, train, and grew stronger.

"Listen up, this is your lord, I need your help, I'm fighting the now Dorfis clan, can you fight against them with your slave tattoos?" he asked as their answer would determine everything.

"We can't," the answer came from the different regions he had and that made him open his eyes, cancel his transformation, as he jumped over Tina's back as he said:

"Buy me as much time as you can," he said, before closing up his eyes again.

He had a theory he wanted to put to test, if he owned the garden, was the overlord there, then couldn't he just push himself further and start freeing the warriors and villagers en mass?

This was something he needed to test, and currently it was the best time to test it. The moment he entered the garden, he went directly towards the oldest pillar he took with villagers and warriors. "Stay still," he simply ordered before trying to channel his strength, expanding his awareness to cover a large number of them, locating the tattoo and trying to burn it.

The first group he tried upon were a hundred, he selected randomly, and when he tried his approach, he was welcomed by the system voice:

"Ding! Do you want to kill the tattoo and free them?"

Arthur didn't proceed with his approach, as he asked:

"Can you help?"

"Ding! Sure, but this won't be a rewarding task, but if you use the approach frequently then I can turn it into an ability for you to use."

Arthur was very content with the offer of the system, so he didn't delay as he replied:

"Agreed."

"Ding! The sprout of the ability of killing the cursing tattoos is temporarily activated. Anytime you want to use it just say the magic words."

"Which are?"

"Ding! Are you stupid?"

"…"

Arthur didn't know what to say, as he was surprised by the reply of the system. He sighed, as if the system was a being he wouldn't hesitate to punch it on the face. "Ok, use the ability now," he muttered, while keeping his anger away.

"Ding! A hundred people were freed. Next time of use the number will be two hundred."

"Use it again."

"Ding! Two hundred people were freed. Next time of use the number will be three hundred."

"Use it again."

"Ding! Three hundred people were freed. Next time of use the number will be four hundred."

.

.

.

"Use it again."

"Ding! Twenty thousand people were freed. Next time of use the number will be twenty five thousand."

.

.

.

"Use it again."

"Ding! One hundred thousand people were freed. You have reached the maximum limit of your current power. Using the ability for a hundred more times will make it a permanent ability."

"Nice," Arthur smiled, as after so many uses of the ability, freeing two groups of villages and warriors so far, he was able to reach the ceiling of this amazing ability, and now he was able to make it permanent.

However using it for one hundred times was something he couldn't achieve currently. After all the remaining villagers and warriors weren't enough to even make him use it fifty times.

"Can I keep the ability count for later to fulfill?" he asked.

"Ding! Sure, but you won't be able to gain the full benefit of having the ability before you turn it permanent."

"What benefit?"

"Ding! To be able to level it up, and to be able to absorb the energy you purify, use it to nourish your body or nourish your items."

Arthur was speechless for a moment as he asked, a question he knew his answer already:

"What about the energy now? where does it go?"

"Ding! Don't be stingy, I need some energy to function, you know."

"…"

Arthur didn't know why the system was showing off such a strange side to him. "Sigh, you were much nicer to me back when we were still strangers," he murmured, and the system didn't reply.

"Alright, let's move to another place and keep using the ability please."

"Ding! One hundred thousand people were freed. You have reached the maximum limit of your current power. Using the ability for a ninety nine more times will make it a permanent ability."

.

.

.

"Ding! One hundred thousand people were freed. You have reached the maximum limit of your current power. Using the ability for a fifty three more times will make it a permanent ability."

"Finally finished."

By this Arthur had already freed everyone here, warriors and villagers. He took the chance to free all, and he was hoping the newly added villagers at the portal would be enough to make his ability permanent.

"Be ready to be summoned up," he shouted, all over the place, while glancing at the monsters which were now purified and gained more boost in strength.

"Next time I will try to do the pet contract en mass as well," he said before opening his eyes, finding the whole world around him was full of attacks coming from distant warriors in the castle, warriors from the ground, and Sara and Tina were hopeless against all these huge numbers of enemies, only able to avoid most of the attacks so far.
