Tales Of The Mighty Dragonair

He wouldn't set foot there now, he would start upgrading everyone's strength as far as he could, then he would go directly to irritate that place's guardian, seeking to kill it and finally obtain reign over this treasured garden.

Birdy descended into the ground, without hesitation Arthur jumped even before they neared it. He wanted to check over the garden, to make sure his guesses were correct.

Once he moved towards the entrance, he could feel the medicinal aroma in the air. This scent itself excited him more than anything else in this world. he was excited, extremely excited, as he turned to look at others while saying:

"Let's start, I want you all to start securing the place first."

"Here?!" Amelia asked, as she thought they would enter inside the valley.

"Yes, here," Arthur confirmed her doubts.

"Won't we enter the valley?" Madly asked, in more doubt, as she wanted to enter into that piece of paradise.

"We will," Arthur said, before adding, ���but we will need to do some preparations first."

"Preparations for what?" Gregory asked, as he didn't understand, like others around him, the mindset of Arthur.

"For taking this whole place to be ours," Arthur said, and as he knew he couldn't explain these things in words, he added, ending this debate, "just trust me and do as I say. Now, let's go and secure this place."

He then called Don, his own pet, before he took out his bow and said:

"Go for half an hour around the place, I want everything cleared. I will go alone, and you will form three teams, each led by Amelia, Clovert, and Gregory. If you meet any strong monster, don't engage. Just mark its location, and come back here and wait for my return."

He was excited, extremely excited, knowing that he would get his hands over a medicinal garden in this mage world. elixirs were a touch from god realm to human world, a magical potion that could change one's life forever. in his mind, he had tons of recipes of many elixirs, and just the thought of his ability to make them again enticed him and ignited his passion once again.

So, he didn't wait for anyone, as he darted, in quite obvious impatience, towards the nearby forest. His senses were sharp, extending to cover as wide an area as possible, but he couldn't reach everywhere. He chose the central location, where he could cover most of the area here.

He didn't find any worrying aura, but he also knew his lesson from before. There might be someone or something far stronger than himself, covering up his or her aura, so he couldn't find them easily.

What he was sure of, a place such as this garden would always attract many monsters to here, especially stronger ones. The more ripe fruits and mature herbs, the more ferocious monsters would gather.

If someone told him this place was empty of danger, he would laugh at him. this place was dangerous, quite dangerous, but he had to secure it. if he faced that guardian without clearing his rear, he might be backstabbed by any monster or mage.

Also, he wanted to raise his team's strength, as this guardian strength would be far above his own. He must use teamwork to get it down, and each strength added counted.

Filled with these thoughts he started to wander into the forest, not leaving a single rock unchecked. The moment he stepped in the forest, he felt like being watched. The more he delved deeper into it, the more this feeling became stronger.

'So, you are lurking here, trying to hide your aura, but your intent of killing is very rich, that I even would sniff it from here without the need to focus.'

Arthur was able to sense the killing eyes set upon him, so clear like daylight. He didn't get where this gaze was coming from, as he felt like it was already stuck to him, like a glue. He didn't bother to seek it, as he was sure this thing would hit him soon enough. all he had to do was to wait, bid his time, and fake weakness.

He had Don, and the fact that the monster was eyeing him without caution made him believe it was above one horn strength. Don wasn't one horned monster, but he was close to that. He hoped it would be a two horned monster, as he could deal with it. as if it was a three horned monster, then he had no hope for that, except if he lured these monsters to others, or grouped others here to kill it.

Arthur didn't see any other monster along his journey, and that made him recall the feeling he had when he met the python queen. The empty place, the quiet, almost quiet area, wasn't that pleasant at all, it was all stressing.

However, that wasn't the case of Arthur, as he was thrilled by the fact that he was about to catch another great monster.

There was a play in his mind, a way to catch monsters without the need to desperately fight it, which was his ring. He could simply touch the monster, and absorb it into his ring.

However, if that monster was conscious and awake, it could resist his attempt, and thus he would lose this chance. Monsters were sane beings, he learnt that, and so he didn't want to burn such a great way to end fights without many losses.

So, he planned things in his mind, as he would play a little if the monster was two horned one, or seek for others help if it was a three horned one. Then when the monster became exhausted by wounds, he would pull the trick and absorb that monster inside his ring.

Just as he was thinking and planning silently in his mind, a sudden gust of wind appeared suddenly from behind him. if he was a second late, distracted enough to not react, his fate would be bad, very bad.

The moment he sensed the fluctuations in the area, he changed his direction at once, grabbing Don with him in the way, before he and Don fell on the side, as his eyes were opened wide, from shock, as he finally spotted the monster that attacked him.

It was a strange monster, had the body of a scorpion, with its four like arms, extending from its huge, armored body, ending it a very vicious and ferocious clasp. Arthur was sure if he was caught by these sharp clasps, he couldn't survive the attack.

That wasn't all, as the monster had a long, curved, very armored tail, that hung above its body, moving left and right in a free way, like a viper waiting to jump over its prey. The end of this tail had a very thin and long needle like extension, that Arthur was sure of its lethality.

As for the head of this monster, it was the head of a bony skull that resembled the skull of a bird, with a long bony peak, and four horns over its head.

'Four horned monster, damn it!'

Arthur cursed his luck, as this monster was way stronger than he initially thought. Besides, he had this annoying feeling, like a mighty predator looking down on its helpless prey.
