Chapter 896 - The Dark Angel Mage Makes A Move
He left for so long already. Despite him travelling back in time, he had lived too long, longer than those he left behind here.
The last thing he did before coming to this sect was to send off his own armies all around the corners of the world. He sent off Sara and Tina to lead many of his forces and claim many territories.
Many armies were awaiting them for a fight, but he now doubted there would be a force stationed in this world worthy of his worry.
He crushed all the leaders stationed in this world and those left behind would only be the leftovers.
He would never be worried by such weaklings, nor would his forces.
And so he planned once returned to the empire to give his orders to expand at a high rate. He had no reason to delay any longer.
All the people here should belong to him. All those standing against his path should be exterminated. That was his plan from this moment on.
"Wow, we have many settlements up there," just after six hours of flying, they came across a group of towns and villages clustered together. Arthur missed that feeling from before and so he decided to go and have a look.
"Let\'s take them in," he said before turning his direction towards this settlement.
However just as they got near this place, a shield appeared all around and protected the villages and towns from them.
"They are really lively," the crow laughed before adding, "should I take out my boys? They didn\'t fight to their heart content in the last war."
"Wait…" Arthur said before he added, "I\'ll go and see them first. If they are stubborn to kneel then you have my permission to act."
The crow smiled in a vicious way while the three others shook their heads helplessly from his reaction. Arthur moved all alone towards the shield while watching many people standing inside, arranging their lines and preparing for a battle.
"Surrender to me…" Arthur shouted in a strong tone and threatened the domineer. In his vision, the world around the shield was stirred up with energy, dark energy.
It made him realize this wasn\'t but a dark settlement with dark forces. He met a few like these before, and most of them were controlled by dark forces and not truly loyal to them.
"Go away," a giant man appeared from below standing on the high and strong looking wall surrounding the central town, "we won\'t answer except to our lords."
"I killed these lords of yours," Arthur calmly said, "and I won\'t hesitate to kill all of you if you don\'t kneel now!"
His words and threats seemed empty except for his dragonair form. Rumors spread across the entire world already about his identity and strength.
He was the one leading the resistance against their leaders, one that shouldn\'t be toyed with.
However that leader down below seemed a bit arrogant at this moment. "We won\'t succumb to the likes of you," he loudly shouted before yelling at his men, "prepare for war!"
"So be it," Arthur was about to turn around before a strange form of energy appeared all of sudden.
It was a form of energy that he spotted and came in contact with before, a higher form of dark energy that belonged to the dark angel mage without doubt.
This made him pause and narrow his eyes. "So you decided not to listen to my words then…" Arthur slowly said before taking out his sword.
The next minute the energy flow kept rising inside the shield without anyone noticing it. As Arthur stood in his place motionless and unsheathed his sword, the other four behind him knew things were heading straight to a fight.
And so they all moved to stand beside him before they looked at the spot Arthur\'s eye never shifted away from.
"What\'s there?" Amera asked in doubt, feeling there was much to see than their eyes could uncover.
Arthur didn\'t need to answer her. Just in the next moment a portal flashed and appeared at the spot he was looking at.
And then a figure came out of it before it closed instantly without any warning.
"A… grandmaster!!!" Nicole was too shocked to see this scene. She moved her eyes around. This settlement was nothing worthy to take care of.
"What the hell is a grandmaster doing here?" Doaf asked with doubt while moving his eyes all around.
"He is all alone," Arthur knew what his trusted bodyguard was thinking about.
"Yet it\'s still a grandmaster," Amera slowly said, "how come he is here after what happened?"
"They must have thought about a contingency plan," Arthur slowly said before taking a few steps forward towards the shield.
And that giant man simply flew in the air while everyone around was startled by his sudden presence.
"I can\'t say I\'m honored to meet you," the mage said in a deep tone and a faint anger over his face. Arthur saw this and figured out he was forced to come here, meaning he was disposable.
That meant he wasn\'t a grandmaster of a big and world renown clan, he was a leader of a mediocre one. However that didn\'t negate the fact he was a formidable opponent to Arthur and his forces here.
"Where is that dark angel?" Arthur looked behind the shoulders of that mage, "why didn\'t he come and greet me in person?"
"You…" the face of the grandmaster twisted out of anger before taking a deep breath, "I\'m here to deliver a message from him anyway."
"What message?" Arthur smiled before adding, "does he want me to kill you?"
"Humph, as if you dare to try," the mage said in a challenging tone, "he says you have a deal with him, but not with the rest of us. As a result he isn\'t obliged to stop anyone coming here on their own accord."
"Oh, I can easily tell you volunteered and asked to come here without the need for you to say that," Arthur sarcastically laughed and his words made the mage in front of him more furious.
