Tales Of The Mighty Dragonair

The flight to the fiery mountain didn\'t take a couple of hours flying, and when they got near the mountain, Arthur really saw a huge mountain drenched in dark red color, like blood.

The sight of this mighty mountain made Arthur understand the huge amounts of ores he would gather here. The mountain stretched for miles, with its peak going towards the sky, deep into the clouds, hidden there inside the crown made of pure milky white clouds.

Climbing this mountain itself seemed to be a challenging task, but they had Birdy, and they cheated their way to the top, easily like that.

Birdy led them through the clouds, to find a whole new sight there, with clear sky and shiny sun over their heads.

"This place would feel great at night," Madly muttered, while others nodded, agreeing on her remark. Arthur didn\'t care about this, despite the beauty of this peak, but it wasn\'t even close to the beauty of his own peak back at his sect.

"Listen up," he said, attracting their attention, "This fight will be hard, as the body of the mountain will be hidden from our sight, so we have to act fast, and not stop attacking," he said, while he jumped over the top of the mountain.

The mountain top was really huge, with many trees growing on it, a flat piece of hard dark red rocks were there welcoming their feet and eyes. The place seemed a bit cold, but Arthur knew that soon it would be ignited in fire and warmth.

"Summon your pets, and let\'s start building our camp," he said, while he summoned his Don, and others summoned their two horned rhinoceroses. Arthur used Don as the general leader of monsters, ordering them around to cut trees, make some holes around the top, as they made a long big wooden wall there.

The trees growing in this place were unique, with thick and sturdy trunks. Arthur knew how unique these trees were, and that made him suspect the presence of a treasure here.

However, if a treasure was present, then monsters would roam here, trying to snatch it! the emptiness and silence here had two explanations, there was no treasure at all, or there was a high ranked monster residing in the shadows, and the possibility of that made him act with more care.

He started scouting the big peak, but he found nothing suspicious except for this big hole in the middle of it, which descended for an endless distance, covered after some hundred meters in darkness.

He tried to sense this hole, but found nothing there. Though the place seemed calm, he knew this wasn\'t enough to eradicate all possibilities of a threat hidden there.

"Is there something wrong?" Noura found him standing at the hole for quite some time. As everyone else was helping in the building process with their pets, she didn\'t find anything else to do but to speak to him.

She didn\'t have a pet yet, and he didn\'t think of granting her one, especially with her irritating nature, so far, with him.

"I think there is a treasure down there, and a monster too," he muttered, as he pointed to the hole, the darkness that veiled his eyesight, and hers.

"Are you sure?" she asked, as she understood the meaning of a guarding monster beside any treasure.

"It\'s just a hunch," he said, before taking one rock from the side, pouring some oil over it, before throwing it into the hole, coupled with a fire pit.

The rock soon ignited with fire, explosive that was enough to light most of the hole parts while descending to the ground. Arthur was content with the rock\'s reaction to flames, as it kept popping up fire like lava, with many sounds of explosions that was magnified greatly by the emptiness of this hole.

These sounds attracted everyone\'s attention, and before anyone could ask or speak anything, a mighty roar came from the depth of this mountain, coming from the unseen parts of the hole.

"There is a monster there," Arthur nodded, as he knew he couldn\'t take out his own treasure before killing this one down there.

He didn\'t know if this rock had irritated the monster or not, but he hoped the monster would be agitated and come out from the depth of this hole. Such a deep hole would be a headache if they had to descend it!

"Be ready for battle!" he suddenly shouted, giving everyone the vibe of how dangerous their current situation was.

His words just died out, and a faint trembling started to be present in the whole top. With passing seconds, these trembling started to be more vigorous, even causing part of the rocks to be separated from the peak, falling down the mountain, causing a severe banging sound.

Arthur just retreated to the back, recalled Don, and was ready to take out his scorpion at any given moment. just minutes of stress, while others were now surrounding him, facing the hole with their serious faces, a smoke suddenly exited from the hole opening, thick opaque red smoke.

"Oh, few weak mages are trying to snatch my treasure, that\'s interesting."

A male middle aged sound appeared from the smoke, as it expanded massively to start covering the whole peak in moments. Arthur knew this was directed to make their vision be negated, and thus he didn\'t delay as he took out many ores from his ring, poured explosive oil on them, and then he started fire.

The fire had irritated that monster, and the speaking monster was indeed something unsightly to face. The moment fire erupted, explosions happened one after another, not the same caliber of that occurred with the dark red rock.

The moment explosions happened, shriek screams erupted, while the sound of the middle aged man appeared again, as if he was speaking to the monster:

"Don\'t worry, I\'m here, I won\'t let them hurt you."

Arthur knew things were worse than he initially thought, as this monster wasn\'t alone, but he had his master with him.

Just as he was about to take more ores, the sound of that master came to startle him, and others around as well.

"May I ask you to state your business here first?"
