Tales Of The Mighty Dragonair

"I don\'t care!" Amera gazed directly at his eyes in defiance. She knew what would happen if she used her ultimate technique again in such a condition.

"I can\'t let you throw your life away," Doaf didn\'t listen to her, "plus she was so close to your grandmaster… Didn\'t it occur to you that she already knew about your technique? That she is provoking you for a reason?"

Amera looked at him in surprise before her face returned to its stubborn look. "I don\'t care," she firmly said, "I have to try, even at the cost of my life. You know that killing her will stop everything!"

"Not necessarily," Doaf shook her head, "she is just a pawn, not the real mastermind behind all this."

"At least the inner war here will be stopped!" she shouted in extreme anger, "at least all my clansmen will fight on one side, not against each other."

Doaf couldn\'t help but sigh.

"Let me go!" Amera twitched in his firm grip yet she was too weak to even cause his trouble.

"Chill it out, I won\'t let you off."

"Why?!"

Doaf glanced deeply in her eyes before he finally said it:

"My young master… he will be very sad and angry at me if I let you die."

Amera didn\'t expect such an answer. Even her body trembled faintly before her eyes showed her stubborn look again. "Let me go! He doesn\'t deserve me if all he could do is to hide at this time!"

Doaf didn\'t listen to her words or let her go. He knew she was trying by all means to break free yet he also knew he had no such time to waste here.

"If you don\'t listen then I have to force you," he raised one hand and was about to put her to sleep when a sudden bang erupted.

From their high position they could perfectly see the giant dark pillar of light that erupted from that old lady\'s location.

"See? She is going to annihilate all the task force mages!" Amera screamed, "let me go! I will stop her at least!"

Doaf turned his eyes towards the direction of the task force. He gave them orders to retreat before coming up here, but they couldn\'t do that in time.

They were not entangled in fierce fights with those elite mages who appeared around Aemie\'s aunt. They weren\'t just leading generals, but also capable warriors.

In front of Doaf and Amera\'s eyes, the task force was getting hit brutally while that giant pillar was about to descend over their heads.

"Let me go!" Amera kept screaming, "I can stop her! Let me go before it\'s too late!"

Yet Doaf didn\'t listen. For him it was a great loss to lose such elite forces of his small army, but it was nothing compared to losing the tigress he was trying to control now.

"Rumble!"

Just at this moment another thundering explosion rumbled across the entire battlefield. This time it came from the direction of the tower.

"What… What\'s going on?" Amera turned from extreme anger into a shaking shocked mage.

"I… Don\'t know," Doaf was also shaking from the inside while watching that ray of blue golden light shooting to the sky coming from the tower.

"Did he… lose control over it?" Amera couldn\'t help but think of the worst. It wasn\'t only her, even that old lady and her capable generals felt the same.

She didn\'t hesitate to let that pillar dissipate in midair while she threw herself inside the nearby portal. She seemed to prepare this as an escape plan for emergency situations.

Like getting attacked by Amera\'s deadly ultimate technique, or that tower going berserk.

"Is it over already?" Amera\'s body went soft and Doaf knew she wouldn\'t be risking her life again. He let her fall on her knees with despair looking over her face.

"We… tried," Doaf tried to say something to help, "at least we did our best."

"And?" Amera turned her gaze towards the tower, "everything was in vain!"

"Rumble!"

Another explosive thundering noise rumbled again and this time that ray of light exploded. The two saw a mighty wave of energy sweep across the land, coming fast at the mountain and immediately crossing it.

"This…!!!" Yet after a few seconds Amera opened her closed eyes and glanced around in deep shock. "We… are alive!" she screamed in joy while jumping on her feet.

"This aura… This energy…" Doaf was stupefied next to her while she kept muttering this. She moved her gaze towards the direction this pulse wave came from.

The direction of the tower.

Meanwhile at the tower, Arthur finally opened his eyes again.

"Phew… That took so long to occur!"

He was immersed in ascending his golden pearl energy to the next level. So he didn\'t know anything was happening outside.

After he reached the missing piece in upgrading his golden pearl, he started to wait until all his body and soul got the benefits they could.

Then he started to act.

He ceased any influx of energy towards his body and soul. He kept rotating the energy inside his meridians and vessels for long minutes.

With each cycle he could feel the amount of the energy swelling up in there until at some point he felt he would explode.

And with his instincts of long experience in breakthrough, he let his energy explode.

That was the moment when that ray of golden blue light shot at the sky. It came at the perfect time to change the outcome of that battle going under the mountain.

\'Welcome back!\' Gege was the first to speak, \'You missed a lot.\'

"Thanks," Arthur laughed before he glanced around, "where is everyone?"

\'Ding! They are fighting against a grand army of lycans and traitors,\' the system said.

\'They did a great job while you were sleeping,\' the golden dragon said in a joking tone.

"I wasn\'t sleeping!" Arthur said while laughing, "but I can\'t leave this tower now, can I?"
