Tales Of The Mighty Dragonair

Arthur after distributing the runes, returned to stand beside the others, watching the process going on smoothly. The same process recurred, and sometimes the three leaders asked, in secret, their mages to try and memorize the different words written on the rocks, as they wanted to try and make their own runes.

Arthur noticed this, but he didn\'t speak. He knew his actions would be watched, from friends before enemies, and so he had put the trap of the faked rocks just in case of such a scenario to happen.

After all the mages had their pets, Arthur looked at the six main mages beside him and said:

"Do you want to have pets now?"

He knew they wanted to have pets, but he wanted to know if they would wait to see the next magic performance of his or not. They just hesitated, as he expected, so he added:

"Don\'t think much, let\'s do it," he then moved to the six rings ready by Ron and other villagers who failed the process of being chosen as mages, and then he took out six huge rhinoceroses and then started to put runes in places.

He intentionally delayed himself in finishing the runes process, letting his new followers to be impressed by the rhinoceroses they would have as pets. The monsters Arthur chose for their minions were strong, but nothing could be compared to this kind of beast.

Once finished, he saw the eagerness burning fervently in their eyes, and he had a smile to appear on his face, a smile of content.

"Ok, let\'s get inside, and have these monsters as your pets," he said, jolting them awake from their surprise, and making them all glance at him in silence for a long look, before going to their places.

They all had one thing in mind, that Arthur wasn\'t doing anything unintentionally, or without any benefit for him.

As they had the process completed, the next phase came, and this time Arthur had, again to act personally, and those watching him like falcons couldn\'t even get a single clue from his doings.

"Ron, arrange everyone please in lines, and make them ready," he said, as he started to get out monster after monster, killing each of them with much ease, with no resistance, open its belly, insert both hands for a few moments, before taking them out holding one organ.

"Come forward, one at a time. don\'t delay, or you will miss your chance. Make the wound on your hands deep enough to cause constant bleeding. C\'mon, move out, don\'t slack behind," Ron had taken the role very passionately, as he started to shout and give orders to the mages like they were beginners, with no experience in life at all.

Arthur heard and said nothing. He was glad of Ron\'s actions, as he was spoiling them, and Ron was scolding them, and both actions were needed at the same time.

Once the first mage came forward, and held the organ from Arthur, his eyes went suddenly soft, and he lost consciousness, falling heavily on the ground. Arthur didn\'t need to say any word, as Ron was ready with teams to carry these mages into a resting place.

As for their leaders, before they asked Arthur anything, they first sought for answers at Amelia, Omar, and Randy. The three answered their questions, reassured them to the safety of the process, as they finally explained they too had experienced such fate.

"I hope when I faint, brother Willy will be the one to hold me," Lendy said, in a seductive tone and motion, in a voice loud enough for the busy Arthur to hear, but he ignored her, for now at least.

The process went smoothly, with Ron supervising the whole operation. In less than ten minutes, the fire pits started to cook the meats of the killed monsters, and at this moment the three leaders had some interest in watching what was going on.

The main noticeable thing was the fact Arthur wasn\'t doing anything in that cooking, which meant he already taught these chiefs his secret recipe, something they really craved for.

Arthur didn\'t stop them from investigating the recipe, as he knew one way or another this recipe was doomed to be famous, but he decided to do a small touch, so he could get the most benefit of it.

"Be wary, all the monsters to be cooked must the vital organs be eliminated from them, or else the meat would be less effective."

This was an obvious lie that whoever was with him at the forest knew of, but none spoke a word. Arthur knew it was a lie, but it was also a fact, as the most important thing about the seasoning was the origin of the herbs and plants used.

The seasoning used in this cooking session came from his heavenly garden, a treasure garden with treasured plants and herbs inside that no one would ever find anywhere else.

So, he wasn\'t lying, as using any other ingredients would end up making the same meat, but not the benefit or taste of it.

It might seem absurd, but to some people, the taste might be much more important than the value or the benefit of it.

Arthur silently watched them, as the era of using meat as a main supplement to raise mages was coming. In fact he wasn\'t that much interested in this secret being revealed, as he had his own bigger secret, the potions!
