Chapter 157 - Meeting Cesile
As for Arthur, he was now busy flying over the mountain peak, descend on part of its exterior, kill a bunch of mages, before flying up again. he wasn\'t just enjoying his time, he was experimenting, as this was really a very rare opportunity for him, as his change wouldn\'t be judged by time here.
He tried to sprout fire from his mouth, which dragons classically did, but he couldn\'t. He didn\'t believe dragons here couldn\'t breathe fire, so the only explanation was that his own rank as a dragonair was quite low.
He tried to use his wings to create a storm of air, to attack others. It was slightly effective, but not deadly enough to kill mages from one blow like this. The only things that were proven deadly were his two claws and his sharp teeth.
Even his two legs claws were considered strong enough to cause deep wounds, or to be used as he did, grab some mages with them, fly in the air, and then threw them towards the distant ground, for the scorpion to kill them.
As for the queen, she enjoyed her time here, as she stood far from the peak, used her two tails to sprout poisonous darts to the mages up there, creating a state of severe panic. This was really enjoyable for her, which revealed how sadistic and manipulative she was!
After roughly an hour of this irritating fighting for mages, calm and interesting for Arthur and his scorpion, a sudden voice suddenly erupted in the sky, with the appearance of three figures in the mountain peak of Arthur.
Arthur noticed their appearance, and he glanced at them from far, but his eyesight was already enhanced in this dragon form. He managed to spot two familiar faces, and one stranger there.
"Is it over so soon?" he muttered, as he guessed what happened out there while he was toying with mages here. "I hope Rayan had gotten something worthy out of this deal," he shook his head, as he glanced at his scorpion before deciding to let her enjoy her time here. "Time is up, enjoy as best you can as the fight will stop soon," he said to her, while he flapped his wings, going back towards his peak again.
"That\'s not fair! I was just warming up!! You have to get me out more to play!!!\'\' She seemed like a little child complaining about her playtime. Arthur just shook his dragon head, while going towards his mountain peak.
In less than a few minutes he arrived there, and the moment he went down on the ground, he noticed how respectful and careful the great elder was towards this new female mage.
She was really beautiful, someone that would make Arthur fall for her in his previous life. Arthur just glanced calmly towards her, before he roared, asking why they came here.
"Oho, you didn\'t even complete your dragonian transformation and you are this mighty already," Cesile chuckled, as she didn\'t understand what Arthur said just now, despite easily guessing his meaning.
"Roar!" Arthur roared again, as he said he was in the process of controlling his powers. "Dear, I can\'t make anything of what you are saying, so let\'s get this done here first. We have a deal with Tenshi\'s father, to stop the fight ongoing here now, and in return you will get another treasure, a good cauldron for you to practice alchemy. You know alchemy, right?"
Arthur was amazed by this, as he never thought the next thing he would get was the information regarding the presence of the alchemy branch of knowledge in this world.
"Kid, alchemy is a rare branch of knowledge that mages rarely get the chance to learn it. feel appreciated that lady Cesile is taking the initiative to teach it to you," Edmory said, mistaking Arthur for not knowing what alchemy meant.
Arthur didn\'t reply in words, as they wouldn\'t understand a single word of his roars anyway, so he took out one bottle, the fire potion he previously made, and tossed it with his claw, gently towards Cesile.
However it went out like a rocket, but she gracefully and calmly caught it up, examined it before her eyes shone brightly as she nodded in content. "Great, never thought a lad from an unknown part of this world would already know about alchemy," she said, before she opened the cover of the potion and sniffed it, in front of the amazed eyes of Edmory and Rayan. "Great potion indeed, your knowledge of alchemy far passed many kids in the fourth grade at the academy already."
She then gulped the content of the potion, with a satisfying look over her face, "great tonic to be honest, rarely acquired something like this from my disciples," she added, before taking out a small potion of hers as she tossed it back towards Arthur, "take this one, it will help minimize the side effects of your shifting after you exit here. what a regret, if you have a better potion, I might have given you the recipe for something that could make your weakening stop bothering you."
Arthur just caught the potion gently with his claws, for fear of destroying it, before he tossed it back to her, making everyone here speechless of his actions. The next moment he took out one of his supreme potions, the ice and fire one, and tossed it to Cesile, who caught it with glittering eyes.
"Oho, so you were holding back then?" he muttered with a wide grin over her face, "this one is much more perfect than the previous one. I really like you lad, keep impressing me and I might fall for you," she joked as she gulped the potion in one breath. The next moment, her face turned rosy, like she was drunk, while her eyes turned soft like she was instantly aroused by the potion.
"Very strong tonic, I like it! Let me tell you, if you can provide me daily with these, I will really, really love you!"
Arthur felt his scalp numb, as this potion was extremely precious for him, hard to make right now. it wasn\'t a common cabbage found on the streets though, so he just sighed, softly, making a roaring sound that made her all laugh at him.
"Don\'t be so dejected, we will have many years together, and I\'m sure you will keep surprising me in the future," she said, trying to console him, in her own way.
"Ahem," Edmory coughed, slightly, before adding, "shouldn\'t we stop the fight now?" he said, pointing towards the distant scorpion queen who was really having fun, toying with these poor mages with her poison.
"Roar!" Arthur roared as he shook his head expressing his helplessness. He then pointed one of his winged claws to Rayan as he roared again, asking them about what benefit Rayan had from this deal.
