Chapter 377 - The Dark Prestigious Oblack Academy
"Vulgar lowly dragonair! Didn't your masters inform you not to mess around with the great Oblack academy?!" The lady seemed pissed off by his answer, and her tone seemed quite distressed.
"My masters aren't those filthy dragonairs of yours," Arthur replied with a strong tone and stance, "Don't try to threaten me, I don't know what this academy of yours is, and I don't care about it!"
"You should," the lady bellowed back, while hitting the ground with both feet with a slight jump that made her look amusing, "my academy is the best academy in all worlds!"
"Really?" he smirked, "why then I never heard of it?"
"That means you are so lowly and weak! Gosh, I don't know how you managed to kill my guards! They are handpicked by my aunt! You are lying! They can't be dead!"
Arthur was getting tired of her nonsense. "Step aside, I have to see what precious cargo those monsters were trying to protect."
"it's me, you moron!" and the lady seemed more insulted by his words, "nothing is more precious than me around here, even you and your pathetic loud world!"
"You…" Arthur suspiciously glanced at her for a moment. Aside from being a beauty, he couldn't find anything special about her. "Move aside," he went forward, roughly pushing her aside before delving inside the giant cart.
The cart was like a big mansion, filled with rooms and had three levels. He checked everything there; apart from the ores and many good arrays and weapons, he didn't find anything useful!
He went out with a puzzled look, while the lady looked back with her buffed face and angry look. She jumped again on the ground while shouting at him: "Have you believed me now? Hurry and release me, or else you won't be safe from my guards."
"I told you, your pathetic guards are all dead, killed by me!"
"Nonsense! I just used a scouting device now and sensed their lively vibrant aura. They are alive; you pathetic liar!"
Arthur glanced at her for a moment there, hating this attitude! 'Bring one inside,' he said to his system and the next moments, one of the guards appeared in the new shape of a grand dragon.
"Yeah, this is my guard, but why does it look like a dragon?" her face showed how puzzled she was. "Come, come and protect your lady," she arrogantly shouted, with a pride tone that didn't suit her current situation.
"Master," and the dragon totally ignored her before kneeling to Arthur, "do you want something of me?" he asked, and his words and behavior shocked the arrogant lady.
"Do you know her?" Arthur pointed to her before adding, "Do you have any collection about her?"
"Yes master, some vague memories," the dragon replied, "she belongs to one of the prestigious dark clans in another world. She is also part of the Oblack academy, a very strong and ancient dark academy in the universe."
The words of the dragon were met with a nodding from the lady. "Her name is Anna, but away from that I have no other memories about her," the dragon said while apologizing to Arthur.
Yet what he said made Arthur chuckle. "Never thought the dark clans had a dark academy as well," he muttered before glancing over Anna, "from now on you will be my slave."
"What?!" this time her face showed a panicked look as she retreated a couple of steps backward, "n- no way… no one of my clan ever ended up in such a lowly position! Even those good for nothing servants weren't treated as slaves! You can't do this to me! I can't end up being a slave!"
"Then be my wife," Arthur laughed, while playing with her.
"What? That's more impossible! My esteemed Hailor clan is much more grandiose than your dragonairs! I can't marry someone as lowly as you are!" she went silent for a moment before gathering up all her courage; "Release me!"
"Tsk, I will leave you here to reflect, and if the next time I find you like this; I would rather kill you!" Arthur threatened in a very serious tone before opening his eyes, and vanishing from the garden world.
'Bring him here,' Arthur said before thinking again about what he just heard.
His system brought the dragon out. Arthur gave him a glance before focusing his gaze upon the other nine dragons like that one. "Anyone here tell me who Anna is? Any information will be useful," he said, while watching their reactions.
The answers he got were mainly repetitive of what he just heard inside, but more info was revealed as well.
"So she came here in a quest from her academy?" he muttered while thinking about this. "This seems like the test I had from my academy to enter here,"he added before thinking about another thing.
They all agreed she was strong! Yet her powers were sealed somehow by the masters in her academy to be suited for this world. If she released her powers; then she would be no less than the Golam he once fought in his own estimation.
"I have to make sure she would turn to be my slave then," he muttered before thinking about another issue. "She had limited time here, then she will be recalled to her world."
This info seemed vague as no one here knew how much time she had; but they all said she just came in. and she wasn't the only one to be here.
"Interesting," he laughed as one of the dragons spoke about a conversation he had in mind where she knew some of the places of other contestants of hers. "I can't let her fail alone, right?" he laughed as according to the news he learnt; each big dark clan here received two of such contestants.
"One is nearby then," he thought before adding, "Spread out and avoid any fight. If you spotted such a cart somewhere around here, come fast and inform me," he said.
'Can you track them?' he asked his system.
'Ding! I can, but your strength right now is lower than this ability,' the system said before adding, 'Ding! I will do this one favor for you.'
'Thanks,' Arthur replied in gratitude. His system kept aiding him throughout his journey; even stepping out of place and giving him aid he shouldn't currently have.
He watched his dragons moving, each in a separate way, before turning his gaze towards the area he hurriedly crossed. "It's time to go and collect all my trophies," he smirked before flying in the air and heading directly towards the nearest army and population.
'Keep an eye on her for me,' he said, while approaching the nearest crowd.
'Ding! Don't worry, she is traumatized by what happened to her.'
'Tsk, such a person coming from a great clan and academy as she claims… it's weird to act and be this fragile,' he went silent for a moment before adding, 'it's not impossible to be feigning this attitude. Just keep a close watch on her actions.'
'Ding! I will.'
'And take out my army, we will wrap things fast,' he descended upon the army scattered and panicked to see him coming.
News travelled fast, and what happened to other armies reached the ears of everyone.
The fight ended up pretty quick, and Arthur waited for an hour to collect all his population and send his warriors back.
"The next group," he laughed while heading to the sky and going after the next group. He sent already orders to his two clones to keep looking for a gigantic cart. He had to snitch as many contestants as possible. As for the reason for their presence here, he would depend on Anna inside to spill everything out.
"Or Olor, he must know a thing or two about them."
With each passing day, the importance of Olor seemed to grow exponentially to him. This sneaky man he got by luck seemed to be much luckier than himself. "I need to make sure he wouldn't be exposed," he then went to silent before adding, "and if possible I would send some of his clansmen into that academy."
He wanted to develop the role of Olor, and by this he would end up having eyes inside a very prestigious and secretive academy of the dark side.
