"This is really starting to get on my nerves!" The crow couldn't contain his anger while watching one settlement after another get backup from grandmasters. "They aren't that mighty to be feared of, then why shouldn't we just kill them?"
Arhtur glanced at him in silence while not knowing what to say. He didn't want to start a pointless war against some rogue grandmasters. He wanted a way to wipe them all in one fell swoop.
He was well aware of the danger presented by them. One or few grandmasters weren't that troublesome, but gathering up hundreds and even thousands of them would be a disaster.
However he also knew he had other cards to use. He had Agnus, Amelia and her research team on mechas, and also his expanding empire. He aimed to control this world fast however his enemy seemed to not agree with that.
Somehow that dark angel mage was dead fixed on having this world in his pocket. It wasn't a mere fight over a single world, but over that gate.
Arthur just imagined the terror it would be caused by the release of such criminal originals into this universe. At all costs he had to stop that dark mage from getting his hand over this world.
"Let's keep flying," he simply said while everyone else felt bitter about retreating like that.
Arthur knew he could order them to attack one settlement and crush it for their morale to get better. However, that would be a waste of time and resources.
Plus many of the already exhausted and injured mages would be slain here. It was a loss he didn't want to experience, not even with the bracelet he got from his godfather.
That bracelet contained at least a grand army of a hundred thousand mages if not more. He didn't know if they were elites or not, but he supposedly thought they weren't.
After all the fight high up was still in its burning state. George would never let go of such force if he didn't need them. And that mere fact decided their importance to him.
They could easily be used to crush weak mages of this world, or even stand against those normal mages from the higher realms. But against elites and the caliber of grandmasters they stood no chance at all.
He didn't need warriors, he needed elites and special forces to execute his orders from now on. And that was the first and main goal he would ask everyone to perform.
No matter what he had to expand his elite list to be so grand to stand shoulder to shoulder with his enemies.
As they kept flying forward, they met more settlements like that until they finally reached his empire's outer borders. There he found things quite chaotic as there were many of his people confined inside a newly founded and yet to be completed city.
And around that city there was a grand army gathered from the local dark mages of this world.
"So they even dared to test my empire," Arthur slowly said in anger before he turned to those around him, "go, kill them all and vent out what you held up till now."
The number of the enemy army wasn't few, and yet they couldn't even break through the incomplete walls and defenses of his city. He got Deem and Gor with him from his empire, however their main subordinates already were familiar with the ways they used to build the cities.
Of course Arthur was sure the speed of building them wouldn't be on par with when Deem and Gor were around. However from the place of this unfinished city he could tell his empire expanded at least one third of its original size.
And he just felt this wouldn't be a sole case and other cities would be attacked like this one.
Per his orders, everyone got hyped up and released their forces instantly. Against tens of thousands of weak mages, the slightly rested forces of the four didn't face any problems at all in crushing all of them.
At first their appearance came like thunder while Arthur stood motionless midair. The shape of his dragonair body was well known to his enemies before subordinates.
So with just him standing there he pumped up the morale of his forces while plummeting the morale of his enemies.
In less than one hour, these tens of thousands of mages were crushed into nothing. Half were killed, a quarter ran away while few forces kept chasing them.
As for the rest they threw their weapons and declared their surrender to Arthur.
"Take them inside and make sure to turn them into our forces," Arthur shouted in a strong tone while the four pillars next to him kept gathering up their forces inside their worlds.
"Let's go," Arthur suddenly turned around and started flying in a different direction from his empire.
"Where are we going?" the crow asked with much expectations, "are we going to fight more battles?"
Arthur nodded while Doaf hit him on the back of his feathered head. "Idiot, we are now getting attacked from all fronts. It's normal to go around and relieve that pressure on our forces."
"Ouch," the crow felt his neck before suddenly laughing, "still good news like a melody in my ears."
His comment made others laugh while Arthur kept his mind busy thinking about these changes.
'Gege…' he thought, 'take a tour around and brief me on the status of the empire.'
'Right away.'
He had his tree of mirrors which could prey over the entire empire of his. Gege took roughly half an hour before finally returning to him.
'There are a lot of cities getting attacked, few got destroyed and we suffered many losses already,' she said in a heavy tone before adding, 'however the good news is we expanded the empire by double.'
'Double?!!' Arthur was shocked to hear that, 'how come?'
'Sara and Tina,' Gege slowly said, 'and that scorpion lady of yours.. The three are leading three armies and vastly expanding the territory at one side.'
