Tales Of The Mighty Dragonair

"I know, but even if he lost some, he still is strong," Arthur said before turning his gaze upon the distant warriors working on the meat before the man did that boom. "One of you, come down here to test the meat," he said and the next moment; all of them left the gigantic meat and went towards him!

"Wow, you are all eager, hehehe," Arthur laughed and he just shrugged, "no problem, I need all of you to get stronger," he said while glancing over Agnus, "what will you turn into? A tiger? Or a dragon?"

"Come, all will take this piece at first," Arthur took the knife of one villager while he started cutting a large cooked piece of the meat into small strands, equaling in size to the one Agnus took. "If you want more, just stretch your hands," he said as he started distributing these meat to his warriors.

A thousand warriors took the meat in a long line before they all sat on the ground. Arthur kept cutting the meat while observing those warriors from time to time.

This was so much fun for him, and he much anticipated what they would all end up to. "Some are better than others," he muttered when he noticed some leaked great amount of energy while others only lacked small parts.

"Only a few managed to handle the energy well," he noticed that only a handful of them were like Agnus. "Those must be the seeds for future leaders," he said to himself while the first warriors stretched his hand, asking for more.

Arthur started handling the meat personally to them in a scene that provoked the envy looks on everyone standing here. Some soldiers took one meat, fewer took a couple, and only five took ten pieces before they were saturated.

"Wow, some are even much better than what I expected," he took note of those five before adding, "mark these five and track them all the time for me."

'Ding! Tsk, don't you notice you are becoming more bossy lately?'

"C'mon, you are my partner, who else I would depend upon for the big stuff?" Arthur smiled while adding, "These five need extra care and attention, and you know that!"

'Ding! That doesn't mean to ask me to do everything for you! You have endless people under you right now!'

"You can go and assign them missions," Arthur laughed before confessing, "I'm too lazy to do that."

'…'

Arthur knew this batch would take a long time to wake up from their trance, so he turned to the others standing around. "Time to start working, I'll make the soup and you prepare the meat and be ready to cook them," he suddenly vanished with his cauldron and didn't appear until ten minutes later, with a cauldron filled with sauce.

After the fourth travel, Agnus woke up. Arthur was making the sauce away, yet the moment Agnus woke up, the system informed him about that.

"Wow, thanks for the tip," Arthur said in gratitude while he appeared the next moment in front of Agnus. "After all I asked you to watch the five, not Agnus included," he added with a grin over his face.

'Ding! To me, Agnus worth much more than them all combined.'

"Me too," Arthur nodded while glanced over Agnus. The vibe coming out from him changed, and he seemed to be transformed to be a monster himself. "How do you feel?" Arthur asked.

Agnus was checking his body and feeling his new energy with a frown over his face. "I feel my energy has increased, but there is something that's holding me back from using it fully," he muttered, and his words were mysterious to Arthur but not the system.

'Ding! Choose a monster and make him couple with it.'

"Wow, how could I forget that?!" Arthur patted his forehead and his words made Agnus have much expectations. "Does lord have a solution to this?" he asked.

"Sure, just hang on a second here," Arthur said before pausing, "by the way, what's the best monster to aid you in forging?" he asked.

And his question made Agnus frown again. "Monster?" he muttered, as he never had this thought ever in his mind. "Well, anything strong and with a big build and flexible arms would do fine," he said, trying to answer the weird question of Arthur.

"Nice," Arthur smiled before vanishing while adding, "wait for me here, I'll come back in a minute."

"I need a strong monster with arms that can help in forging," Arthur said to his system, "any suggestion?" he added.

'Ding! Your garden is full of many new species of dark monsters turned into light ones by your garden. They also evolved, but let me search for something unique.'

"Alright," Arthur smiled while he moved in his garden like wind, checking the places that were purified and the monsters that gor changed.

"These monsters… they all had crowns!" he muttered when he noticed many of the monsters scattered on the ground.

'Ding! This is the evolved stage of some, while others went towards the higher grade,' the system answered.

"Which is?" Arthur was curious.

'Ding! Having a special ability formed to them,' the system said, 'Ding! Most can speak and act wise like humans, only one step away to take the shape of humans.'

"And the rest?" Arthur knew these monsters were taking the route that Tina took, the route he hoped his scorpion would take one day.

'Ding! Extremely rare number of them started to evolve towards the ancient beasts they hailed from.'

"Like? Dragons perhaps?"

'Ding! You can say that dragons are one of those ancient monsters, but none here hailed from your bloodline,' the system replied before adding, 'Ding! But some had the bloodline of Sara, showing signs of turning into winged tigers for instance.'

"Wow," Arthur was surprised and delighted, "I want all to be like Sara," he laughed as he knew how strong these monsters would be.

'Ding! I found something that might be useful,' the system suddenly said.
