Tales Of The Mighty Dragonair

"Gulp."

Suddenly this sound came from the depth of the garden and that startled Arthur. "What was that?" he hurriedly asked.

\'Hahah, it was the belly of the garden,\' Gege said before adding, \'this little one here is a little savage. Hahaha, I wonder how I will end up after absorbing it.\'

"You didn\'t fully absorb that original world from before," Arthur teased her, "you now have two huge meals to swallow."

\'This one here is different,\' Gege laughed, \'it\'s just a similar piece of me, a fragment from the original garden. I can absorb it in less than a day.\'

\'Original garden… what is that?\' Arthur asked in curiosity.

\'I and this garden here are just mere pieces of many. The original garden is something I know a little about, only know that it was shattered eons ago and we all know what it was left from it.\'

"Like the star map?" Arthur asked, "you also hailed from the time and place clans?"

\'I believe so,\' Gege only said that much, \'Now you can leave and let me absorb this naughty one here. Damn….\'

"What?" Gege\'s scream made Arthur\'s heart clench, "What\'s wrong?"

\'Nothing,\' Gege laughed, \'this glutinous one had an army of monsters eaten inside its belly without proper use,\' she laughed while adding in an excited tone, \'be ready to have more meat, higher and much more valuable than the Golam.\'

"That\'s what I call a real treasure," Arthur was excited too, "are there any clans living inside? Any monsters I can use?"

\'The garden is full with many humans and monsters,\' Gege said, \'but I can\'t control them now until I absorb this one here.\'

"Alright," Arthur stepped forward while the werewolf just stood up from the ground with many wounds all over his body, "I\'ll leave this place to you then."

"To me?" The werewolf suddenly asked in a weird expression over his face.

"Not you," Arthur laughed, "you\'ll come with me but have these first."

He took out a large pile of meat which made the eyes of the werewolf shine. "Thanks master, you are really kind hearted."

"It\'s just for celebration."

"Of what?" the werewolf asked in a stuffed mouth.

"Never mind," Arthur gave the garden a final glance before starting to fly up towards the ground, "come, we still have many things to do."

Arthur went to the surface with a better mood than before. As he reached there, he found the entire world silent and looking quite desolate.

"Bring everyone up," he muttered and the next instant large number of his followers appeared, including the dragons.

"Are we in the first academy?" Amera glanced all around before her face suddenly changed as she turned her gaze towards the direction of the pit. "What happened down there?"

Arthur was speechless but the crow and Doaf had similar expressions over their faces. "Nothing," Arthur simply said, "it was some hanging up matter and I resolved them."

The three glanced weirdly at him before Doaf sighed ."It seems our young master here has his own secrets, sigh."

"Alright, let\'s divide and start annexing everything," Arthur clapped while starting to form the teams.

He used his surrendered armies as the search groups, and each group had a couple of higher up guards to lead. As for his dragons, he sent them under the leadership of the three girls alongside some of the surrendered mages.

"Now I have to go out as well," he remained there with fifty of his dragons and his werewolf. "Let\'s go this way then," he selected the way he knew many populations were located.

He took everyone inside except for the werewolf who possessed an equal speed to his or even better. The journey didn\'t take a couple of hours before he met the first cluster of villages and towns.

"Go and surround everyone," he took out his dragons and then added, "make everyone ready to move in these portals with everything they had."

The system opened many portals while Gege was still busy absorbing the garden. Arthur stood in the air watching this flood of people who had no way but to obey his orders.

They were always weak and helpless, following the orders of those higher and stronger than them. From the academy to Arthur, they had no opinion in that.

But for Arthur he knew they would have a major turn over in their entire lives. From being slaves into mighty warriors and active citizens in his growing empire, this was the future he knew they would have.

"And I think it\'s a better future than the past they lived," he muttered to himself while flying away, leaving this stretch of villages and towns desolate.

He repeated the process for many settlements he faced. For the next day he kept himself busy doing the same thing while he was sometimes lucky to just find camps of the academy forces or some clans with decent mages.

He didn\'t reject anyone, and in front of those fighters he had to kill part first to demonstrate his superiority. Eventually everyone would accept the truth and kneel to him asking for forgiveness.

\'It\'s ready,\' suddenly Gege said this while he was heading towards a distant stronghold that belonged to some kind of a big clan here it seemed.

This stronghold was different from other places he visited so far, reminding him of the old castles he attacked before at his first city world.

"How did things turn out?" he asked with much curiosity.

\'Well, this garden is much more primitive than mine,\' she sighed before adding, \'I had to kill its soul and absorb it to nourish myself. No other way around, she didn\'t give me any other options here.\'

Arthur inwardly sighed as he didn\'t know if this was the truth or Gege just got greedy and decided to eat the other garden for her own benefit.

\'Don\'t think like this about me,\' she suddenly shouted in a bitter tone, as she managed to read out his thoughts, \'no two gardens\' souls can reside in one place without a fight; that\'s the rule.\'

"Anyway how is the new addition for the garden world?" he asked what he cared most about.

\'Go inside and see for yourself.\'

"One sec," he landed first on a small hill before sitting on the ground, closing his eyes, and entered the garden world.

"This… is quite impressive," he couldn\'t control his excitement when he spotted the new version of his garden. The initial vast garden got its size tripled at least with another center that looked exactly like the center of his old one.

The new territory was much more peaceful than his old garden as it didn\'t have any pillars or absorbed dark worlds inside. There were a huge number of clans, towns, and villages inside with an endless number of mages and strong villagers there.

"This is… a treasure trove," he laughed as now he could summon armies in millions if he wanted to and there were many folds of such numbers inside as working villagers.

"Spread the word," he opened his eyes before adding, "let them be the new boss in the world."

\'Alright,\' Gege excitedly laughed, \'any special requirements?\'
