Chapter 472 - Amelia's Unexpected Gain
"Ding! Just tell me the word you want to write and I'll help guide your hand to write it down," the system said, with much confidence in his tone.
"Alright, let's start with these words; augment, absorb, purify, extract, amplify, seal, control, and store," he said as these were the line of words he decided to use in this array.
"Ding! All of these?!" the system was speechless, "Ding! How many runes are you going to make in each array?"
"Ninety nine groups, each consisted of ninety-nine ore," Arthur explained while adding, "each word will have either one, three, five, seven, and finally nine groups based upon the need of the word and the strength of the monster."
"…"
"…"
The two sounds in his mind were speechless for a moment before the golden dragon said: "Don't you think you are overdoing this? It's just a small boost to their strength."
"You are wrong," Arthur shook his head while adding, "this will be a miraculous change in everyone's lives."
He started to arrange the ink, which came from the purified water sea in his garden center. As for the blood on the ground, he used the purified Golam blood to do that.
As he kept working diligently on making his runes, the system kept guiding his hand until he started to get familiar with what he was writing.
Making all these runes took roughly half a day before he started to spill the blood over the ground to create spaces for the absorption process.
Before he wasn't that much caring about the shape of the blood on the ground, or the specific placement of the runes inside. Yet after studying and analyzing, he started to have some theories here as well.
So he started drawing stars, nine headed stars with internal lines connecting them, turning this into much like a Ley Line diagram.
Then he started arranging the runes inside the diagrams he created, making sure to put the augmenting runes more towards the place of the monster.
"Bring one monster to me," he said to his system before waving to Amelia to come.
Right now many were standing in line, waiting in patience and much anticipation to what their mighty lord was making.
Amelia came and glanced at all his preparations. "Impressive, that's more like the pet contract," she commented.
"Go there and be ready to activate your energy and use your strongest ability, technique, or attack," Arthur instructed as this was the only way he could be sure their energy would be highly activated and circulating fast inside their bodies.
"Alright," she smiled before adding, "can I later couple with one?"
He nodded as he said, "you need first to strengthen your body and soul, extend your energy then you can have your share of these."
She nodded and stood at the place he specified, while a monster came and stood calmly inside the diagram.
The monster was giant, with a shape resembling a tiger with long sharp teeth and thick crown made of strange shaped bones, surrounding one central long horn in the middle.
It looked majestic and strong, yet Arthur took out a normal sword and went towards it.
Before he used to kill the animal and bring the organ to the mage or warrior to absorb, but this time was different. He first would augment the monster while killing and extracting the organ later.
"Drop your blood over the arrow-like rune in front of you at my mark," he said before reaching at the monster and patting over its body. "Don't worry, I'm pretty sure your contribution to my people won't be forgotten or for nothing."
The monster seemed to understand his meaning as it lowered its head and sat on the ground motionless, closing its eyes. "Now," Arthur said before holding the sword in hand, turning into a dragon the next moment, and waited.
The moment Amelia put her blood over the rune, the diagram was activated and the next moment a thick veil of blood erupted the three of them. Arthur descended his sword to cause a fatal wound at the monster's neck, killing him in one blow.
Then he turned into a human gain before cutting the monster's belly and started dissipating his energy inside.
"Wow, so good I have prepared for such an outcome," he muttered while he felt the resonance of more than one organ inside this monster. "Advanced monsters have more than one vital organ indeed," he nodded before taking out one kidney and hurriedly threw it towards one side, a place surrounded with some groups of runes.
Then he took the second kidney, lobe of liver, and finally a piece of the brain. He threw all towards the diagram before saying, "I'll retreat now, you cut your hand and stain all the star-like runes around you in a circle."
He didn't wait for her to reply before turning to the dragon again and taking the dead body of the monster outside. He put the dead body on one side before turning his gaze towards the activated array. "I hope this works," he muttered as Amelia had to start absorbing four organs not one.
His wait lasted for an hour, during which he didn't move an inch from his place. He closely watched the array, looking for any changes and analyzing it.
"Thud," this strange sound appeared before the entire array started to fade away. When he saw Amelia clearly, she was already passed out.
He went to check her, while ingesting part of his energy inside. "Amazing," that what he muttered when he opened his eyes after a couple of minutes. "these organs are replacing her human organs and starting to strengthen her body."
He stood up while glancing at her in a new light. "This… it's far beyond what I hoped for," he laughed, before waving to others behind, "come and carefully move her to the rest zone."
Ron and others had already cleared a vast area to accommodate for the fallen out mages and warriors. Arthur watched a group of villagers carrying Amelia in a stretcher before he started to check his diagram. "Only part of its power was consumed," he was surprised before checking the runes.
"Even the runes can be used for many times, that's simply amazing."
He stood up and as he didn't need to waste more time in making more runes he waved at Ron, Madly, Lily, and others to bring people forth.
Then he started to create his diagram on the ground before Deem appeared.
"This diagram looked like a primitive Ley Lines diagram," he muttered, "I can help in making it if you want."
Arthur glanced at him before nodding. "Here, take these tools and runes and start making one diagram in front of me."
He handed him his own tools and stood by the side watching Deem making an exact copy of his diagram. "Good, even the runes were neatly arranged," Arthur said in content, "go and keep making them."
Deem nodded while starting to call out on more aiders, people he knew from the teaching group with Otman.. As for Arthur, he had one less task to be taken off his shoulders, and now he was able to fix entirely on processing the organ absorption.
