Tales Of The Mighty Dragonair

Arthur started a spree of making his grand dragons. First he worked to create more originals. After all his previous attempts, it was easy for him to crush the vulgar power of the curtains and create three originals out of attempt.

In a day time, Arthur could summon up to a thousand originals. One of them would be sacrificed at the end of the day to leave behind the crystallized charcoaled corpse.

Then he would use his ability to turn it into a grand dragon.

He kept working like this for an entire three months or more. For a hundred day, he never stopped what he was doing and in the end he had a grand army of originals.

Now his originals were over one hundred thousand strong men. Such numbers made him very confident in his ability to crush any enemy no matter what.

Even that dark angel grandmaster, Arthur, wasn't worried about him anymore. Even if that mage was ready to deal with his originals, he wouldn't be able to handle such grand force.

And on the side of this, Arthur was more proud and ecstatic about his grand dragon force. One hundred grand dragon seemed like a tiny force but in reality it was like a force of mass destruction.

If it was up to Arthur, he would continue working on his plan. He liked the results yielded so far and didn't want to stop here.

His stockpile of curtains didn't decrease at all. In fact it kept increasing until it reached a terrifying figure of hundreds of thousands of pieces.

Despite using the curtains in many things, and evolving not only his mechas but most of his forces, the curtains didn't stop growing in his garden.

That was all thanks to the continuous manufacturing of these curtains. And as the purple ores kept pouring in an endless stream from all the mines scattered under his control, Arthur became more attached in making more originals and grand dragons.

As for his currency, the time he waited here seemed a bit long but in reality only ten days had passed out there. As the blacksmiths couldn't deal with the currency casting task inside the garden because of that grand mountain outside it, they only managed to make a small amount of coins.

Despite that, the amount they formed reached tens of thousands of pieces. Arthur knew this amount was simply nothing compared to the great demand of his growing empire.

But he wasn't worried. After winning this battle, he was quite sure of his control over this realm. And this realm started to be the cornerstone of his empire. A realm so important to his empire's future growth.

And that simply added more importance to the upcoming battle.

"How are things going outside?" Arthur asked when he was taking a small break.

'The enemy took the bait,' Gege said before adding, 'he changed the place of his base many times already. Plus Agnus managed to form many siege weapons that are able to penetrate any shield.'

"Did he?" Arthur was glad when he heard that, "what about the islands inside our empire?"

'They are still roaming around the border,' Gege said before explaining, 'the enemy recalled many of them and battles already erupted between our forces and them. So far we couldn't crush many of the islands, but we managed to take control over a few.'

"Impressive," Arthur commended, "it was thanks to Amera I guess, right?"

'Yeah, that girl is really something else,' Gege said before adding, 'but after the others got their evolution from the curtains, they also began to have part in this party.'

"That's expected," Arthur nodded in agreement before Gege delivered a piece of bad news.

'But the enemy recalled more of the islands from other places,' she paused before adding, 'a grand army of over ten thousand islands are heading towards the empire directly as we speak.'

"Ten thousand… That's a large number to handle. How come he has such a large army under his control?" Arthur thought about this for a long minute before adding, "what about the detection devices at the cities?"

'Deem and Gor created an array, also Agnus made a few gears that helped in detecting many islands,' Gege said before adding, 'thanks to that, the islands all retreated outside the empire and now waiting for their reinforcements.'

"How long will these new islands take to reach my empire?" Arthur knew things were heading towards a complicated encounter if he left it this way.

'They are now hundreds of miles away,' Gege said before adding, 'I assume they'll need at least five days to arrive.'

"And from the place of the flying base?" Arthur asked while a plan started to take shape in his mind.

'Didn't calculate… Give me a sec,' Gege went into silence for five minutes before returning, 'they aren't that close to the base. But the forces are scattered as they are coming from different directions.'

"What about the closest ones to the base?"

'Around three days to five days,' Gege said, 'the rest might take a week or so to reach there.'

"Good," Arthur was relieved to hear that, "assemble the army. We are going to hit that base now."

'But the base has already moved away from its past location. We'll need two days to reach there.'

"No problem," Arthur passed through the portal that Gege brought to him to reappear again in the real world. The world around me was quite peaceful. "Make sure everyone is gathered inside the garden world and ready to move at any moment," he said before flying in the air, "let's reach there in less than a day. Summon your portals and let's cover this distance in a short time."

'Cool.'

As Arthur asked, Gege started to summon a long series of her portals where he simply passed through. This was his fastest way to cover large distances fast.

After all, he was now racing against time. He wanted to hit that base while the reinforcements were far away.
