Arthur and Amera kept flying towards the next settlements. Amera started to stick to silence. She had a lot of questions and much doubt, but she decided to remain silent for now.

She had a nagging feeling that Arthur didn't tell her everything. And she was right, but Arthur didn't intend to explain anything so dangerous to her, or to anyone.

After all he knew what he told her was already known to the dark angel mage. As for what actually knew about the original seeds, he was sure the dark angel mage didn't know anything about.

Each settlement had their people gathered outside and waiting for him. At some point Arthur got the word that Deem and Gor already sent men to build cities around here.

These men arrived at the settlement he left from the start. As such Arthur decided to change his way of dealing with these people.

'Make them move towards that settlement,' Arthur said to Gege, 'I need all of the people to work together and help in building cities in a wide stretch of land.'

'What about the enemies?' Gege asked, 'I just told you many dark mages are gathering around this area.'

Arthur couldn't help but resist the urge to go and kill all of them now. He had an important farm mission, one he couldn't possibly miss at the moment.

'Let the crow deal with them,' he decided, 'also send the word to Doaf and Jud. Make them move out and hunt down any resistance gathering near them.'

'What about Amera?' the golden dragon said, 'you should send her to hunt down every enemy here.'

Arthur turned to Amera and didn't say anything. However she noticed his gazes.

"What's wrong?" she said, "is there something on my face?"

He couldn't help but smile and his smile in his dragonair form looked creepy.

"Do you know that enemies are gathering around here as we speak?" Arthur made up his mind. He didn't need her by his side. Plus they were already in the middle between the crow on one side, and Doaf and Jud on another.

"Where?" her face turned all serious, "I'm itching to stretch my body a little and test out my new powers. Is there any grandmaster there?"

Arthur got the answer from Gege. There were few, but they remained back, far away from their reach for now.

This proved to Arthur one thing, the dark angel mage was trying to pull out an attrition war. He was slowly gathering up his forces, and he didn't plan to act rashly and directly clash with him with all his elite forces.

"There are," Arthur nodded, "but they are far away in the back."

"I wanna kill them!" Amera decisively said, "tell me where they are and I will make sure to bring you their dead bodies."

Arthur knew she was already determined to do so. However he also knew she had a limited number of forces at her disposal.

If anything was wrong in his plan, then the lack of elite forces compared with his enemies. It was his sore spot, and he knew his enemy was aiming directly at it.

"Let's not rush things here," Arthur slowly said, "you first need to collaborate with Doaf, Jud, and the crow before killing everyone else."

"I'm not interested in weak fries," Amera arrogantly said, "just tell me the direction and leave the rest to me. Plus I'm not that easy to handle even before gaining my new powers."

Arthur knew she was telling the truth, however he asked Gege to put a portal on her back and keep an eye over her.

He didn't doubt her strength, but he didn't trust her ability to face an army of elites all alone. After all she was still new to her powers, and god only knew what she was capable of doing at the moment.

'I'll keep you posted about her,' Gege promised, 'as for the other three, they have already moved out.'

"Great, what about the cities?"

'Deem and Gor's men received the orders from me already,' Gege said, 'they are to build a lot of cities at one go. As for people needed, I have already opened many portals around the spots they chose. However…'

She paused and Arthur couldn't help but feel there was a piece of bad news coming at his face.

"However… what?"

'The cities aren't linked to the empire yet,' Gege slowly said, 'this place is far away from the last city under your control. According to them, the cities here must be linked with the empire before they can benefit from the grand array.'

"Hmm… What about Deem and Gor? What are they doing anyway?"

Arthur knew what these people said made quite sense, but he wasn't helpless either. He had a counter and fast solution for this problem.

'The two are busy building cities all over the empire,' Gege said, 'they are overseeing the entire process from the capital.'

"Tell them to focus mainly on linking the empire to here," Arthur ordered, "make them build a line of cities linking the empire directly to these settlements. Also send a word to the three girls, make them turn around and try to clear a path towards here."

'I don't think we'll need them,' Gege didn't like the idea, 'the enemies here aren't that many or strong anyway.'

"No, things will turn south the moment we start expanding our empire here," Arthur said in clear conviction. He believed the dark angel mage would grow restless when seeing his actions.

After all that meant Arthur could see through his plans already. This spot was much more advanced than his current empire territory. Gaining a foot here with cities would make the dark angel mage change his plans.

A great war would erupt here if he kept his forces at such a low limit.

At this moment, Arthur didn't feel he was fighting a normal war.. It seemed like he was playing a great game of Go with that dark angel mage, one which only grandmaster would play.
