Tales Of The Mighty Dragonair

"No, you are wrong! You are lying to me!!" Nicole shouted in denial and refusal to what Arthur just said.

"Can\'t you even give it a little thought?" Arthur calmly said, "if you do then the answers will present themselves clearly in front of your eyes."

The words of Arthur didn\'t help at all. Nicole returned to her spree of anger and tried with all her might to resist the pillars and break out.

However the answer that she got was more pillars arranged around her by the orders of Arthur.

"You are my most valuable prisoners, so excuse me for not letting you escape."

"You are a monster," Nicole screamed in anger, "you are no different than my mom."

"I won\'t argue with that," Arthur resisted the urge to defend himself in front of her false accusations, "but we aren\'t here to play or make friends together. We are at war! Many lives are on the stake here. So I\'m going to ask you again, do you want to help and save your life or will you prefer to stay her and rot?"

"I prefer to be killed in the hands of my master instead," Nicole even spat on the ground showing her disgust and utter refusal.

"That… won\'t happen," Arthur shook his head, "without cooperation and info you won\'t leave this place."

"My mother will kill you!" Nicole viciously said.

"If I die…" Arthur waved his hands in the air pointing to the world around, "then all of this would be lost and destroyed with me."

"I\'m not afraid of dying," Nicole seemed strong but Arthur was pretty sure this was all just a fake front she used to have in front of the world.

"No one loves death or else why are you still alive even after all this time?" Arthur sneered before turning around, "you have all the time in the world to succumb and help."

"I won\'t," Nicole shouted at his back while he kept moving forward without even turning around.

\'That went pretty well,\' the golden dragon sarcastically said, \'you only lacked your sword to kill her and let go of her misery.\'

"Stop it," Arthur sighed while walking away, "she is stubbornly dumb. I thought she would agree from the first time but no harm in waiting."

\'Will she be held here?\' Gege said, \'I have to say I can\'t hold here for much time.\'

"I know," Arthur stopped before turning towards the distant pillar and the glaring eyes fixed upon him from Nicole, "I only need one hour."

\'Alright, do you want me to take you out then?\'

"No, I\'ll get out the normal way," Arthur then took a deep breath before vanishing from the world. He was already in his phantom stage and all he needed was to open his eyes in the outside world.

"Oh, you are alert at last," just as he opened his eyes he was faced with another pair of eyes that looked at him from so close up.

Arthur was startled and instantly jumped to the back in reflex. He vigilantly looked at the face who had such an irritating smile over it. It was the master, and she seemed not to be alone.

"Calm down my boy," the master said with a warm smile as she approached Arthur closely, "can\'t you feel the connection between the two of us?"

\'Feign you feel it,\' the golden dragon\'s words next made him stand straight and give her a weird look.

"Good," the master reached him and touched his face and body like she was examining a commodity. "Not bad, you have a strong body to begin with."

"Aemie… Can you stop fooling around at such a time?" Just as the master was taking a tour with such an interesting look over her face, the voice of the old lady, Nicole\'s mother, came all of sudden as she came from the front door at this moment.

"What?" Aemie didn\'t stop her tour around Arthur\'s body, "he is my toy and I have the right to do whatever I want with him."

She said it in a playful tone, a tone that made Arthur doubt she was the master he met before and was intimidated by her.

"This isn\'t the time for that," the old lady said, "the search teams returned after killing all lycans but there are no signs of more. What do you want to do?"

"Hmm…" just as the old lady brought this to the light, the face of Aemie changed at once. She seemed more serious, far aggressive, and she gave Arthur the same old dreadful feeling.

She was like a totally different person from whom she was moments ago.

"I don\'t feel that\'s right auntie," Aemie said in a strong tone while facing the guards around, "who is leading the outside expedition to look for traitors?"

"It\'s Antony ma\'am with all of his leaders," one of the guards answered.

"I don\'t think Antony is incompatible to not find even a single one of those traitors outside," the old lady said, "it\'s more logical to think this brat was lying when he said that."

"Him?" Aemie turned to Arhur before asking, "as you are now belonging to me, you have to answer everything with honesty."

Arthur didn\'t answer in words but in a nod while he still held that faked weird expression of doubt over his face.

"Are there any lycans in my world anymore?" Aemie asked with a very terrifying domineer.

"Yes, there are a lot," Arthur spoke and tried to make his sound seem like a horse.

"He can\'t be lying," Aemie turned to her aunt.

"If there are really any, then where are they?" the old lady wasn\'t fazed by Arthur\'s words.

"Can you point at their places?" Aemie said before motioning towards one of the guards as he got one map out.

However even before the guard could deliver the map to the master, Arthur did something unexpected that made everyone freeze.

"She is one of them."
