The second pets for the three, Alia, Gregory, and Clovert were white panthers like monsters, with a tail so strong and vicious that it ended with a spear-like extension. As for the other mages who ca with Omar, they had their rhinoceroses like the rest of the group. After Arthur finished, he had another thing to do, which was to make the three absorb the vital organs of a recently killed monster.
For Alia he took out a rhinoceros and killed it, took out its still pulsating heart, made a wound at her hand, and then let her body absorb it in a peaceful, sleepy way. Omar and his team gathered up watching this sorcery, with no words to describe what they were seeing.
Arthur was content with their reaction, as this ant more faith and loyalty for him. Clovert took the liver of the deer monster, while Gregory asked for rhinoceros as well. Arthur complied with his request, and after he finished with them, he had finally so ti to visit the cooking area.
Omar went by him, as he was surprised beyond imagination, and he wanted to ask many questions, but what Arthur did later made him more speechless.
Hills of dead monsters appeared out of nowhere, occupying a large stretch of the recently emptied lands. Arthur took all the killed monsters inside his ring, and left those living as a future life stock for his family and people living under the family banner.
Monsters inside didn't need to be fed, or cared for, and to his surprise, they could mate. He thought of a theory regarding the growth of any monster to breakthrough its shackles and raise a grade. Either this monster would eat a treasure, or live in a place full of concentrated sources of energy.
Arthur noticed, to so extent, the heavenly treasure inside his ring emanated a strong quantum of energy, so he let this energy prevail in the whole ring. He even didn't prevent the scorpion five horned monster from benefiting from it, as this monster was regarded as one of his best assets.
"I know you have questions, go ahead and ask," Arthur, after finally ending all this, and waiting for the three sleepy to wake up, decided to have a long chat with Omar, who accepted the gesture and asked:
"What is happening to them?"
"It's a way to boost anyone's strength. See it like this, each monster has so sort of strength, strength, defense, agility, and so on. this strength didn't co from nowhere, but concentrated mainly inside one of his organs.
If you managed to slain a monster and then searched for this organ before its energy dissipated, you could absorb this energy via connecting your energy system with this organ.
However doing so is a long and extre process, so the mind usually tends to sleep, as a precaution against any over absorption of the energy," Arthur explained slowly to him, trying to make him understand the theory behind this procedure.
"And you can identify this organ?" Omar asked.
"Sure," Arthur nodded with confidence.
"What's this energy system?" he asked after a mont of thinking.
"It's the channels where mages can circulate their energy to use it. it's a very advanced term, I don't think it's commonly known here," Arthur honestly said, as describing this was much harder than describing the previous theory.
"Aha, I see," Omar nodded, as he didn't get an answer but he felt Arthur was speaking out of so knowledge, knowledge he never t soone had before. "Look, I took the liberty and invited so of my trusted guys, they are as strong as , and I can vouch for them with my life," he added, speaking about what he did earlier.
"That's great, I intended to make my group as big as it can. So, if you and others know mages who can join us, rogue mages of course, then you can invite them," Arthur said with a calm smile, encouraging him.
"You don't care about their attitude or nature?" Omar asked in doubt.
"Oh Omar," Arthur sneered before adding, "anyone that crosses the line will be killed personally by . this is sothing I'm not worried about, besides," he then turned to look at everyone else around them, who were working with much devotion and high spirit, "anyone who can be given a second chance of life by won't think about betraying , regardless of anything else, he or she will try their best to please . After all, I'm the one who make them like this, and I'm the only one who can maintain their advantage in life."
The words of Arthur were so arrogant, but they were true to the core. Omar, when thought about it, realized this simple, yet ignored fact. what they had gotten from him so far was done only by him, and no one else here knew how to do anything he just did.
No one here could make the monsters as pets, or find the vital organ to absorb it, or even had that miraculous ring in his finger like Arthur. Omar's eyes just opened on the utter and simple truth, if Arthur decided to abandon anyone, he or she would be dood!
No one would be satisfied by the life he lived before after seeing what Arthur just did, so he understood the logic behind Arthur's confidence and calmness. He wasn't arrogant, he was just simply realistic.
"Can I ask my friends then to invite their friends too?" he suddenly asked, as he realized the more favor he could get from this youth, the better. He was lucky, as he knew Arthur in this early stage, where any effort, no matter how simple or small it was, counted.
"Sure," Arthur simply nodded, complying with Omar's desires, knowing what he was thinking of.
Arthur then started to help Ouly and the others in cooking, while Omar went busy for a while, sending and receiving bird wings. After he finished, he ca with his forr mages, as he ordered them, from his good heart, to try and curry all the favors they could from Arthur.
He also advised them to learn from his doings, after all life wasn't a guarantee, and he didn't know what their future destiny might be.
The three kept sleeping till the next morning. Throughout night, there were so random beast attacks from ti to ti, attracted to the sll of food here. Arthur didn't have to go out and kill them himself, as Omar mages, led by Omar himself, did the job.
They also made sure to bring back the bodies of the killed or wounded monsters, where so were double horned monsters, and even there were five three horned monsters there.
