"We can conduct it here, right?" Alia stood on top of the grand wall overseeing the stretch of lands outside the city.
"Well… as long as they don't have to fight on top of the city then it's fine," Arthur said before turning around, "but where is Ara?"
"She is coming," Alia smiled before the next mont a ray of light ca from far in the distance.
"Sigh, this girl really runs too fast," Arthur sighed while glancing over the distant place she ca from, "all this because I asked for a little help."
"Your little help is a real ss to others," Alia laughed, "I won't forget what you asked and other old squad to do, and in the end we had to stay one week outside fighting non-stop and amassing people for you."
"And he was only resting and playing here," Madly gave him a deep glance while the mories of that mission were still lingering in her mind.
"C'mon," Arthur weirdly laughed, "it's not like the task wasn't on par with your strength."
The two girls gave him a threatening glance and he had to change the topic fast. "What are the abilities of this cha?"
"Humph," Madly harrumphed.
"It can fly fast, use fire breath like any dragon, plus so interesting arrows that resemble your old version of arrows," Alia said.
"You even upgraded the arrows?" he was surprised.
"Not ," Madly shook her head, "it was Agnus."
"Oh," Arthur nodded, "by the way where is he?"
"He is busy experinting sothing," Alia mysteriously said.
"I'm ready," Ara suddenly said while standing in the air a couple of hundred ters off Nara," Let's see how this thing will do against my attacks."
"Please start," Alia said.
"Don't damage the city," Arthur hurriedly shouted and many laughed at his remark.
"Don't worry big dragon, I won't touch your beloved city," Ara sneered before she moved fast using her speed at a test.
And Nara moved as well, surprisingly keeping up with her supre speed.
"Interesting," Ara said, "the speed is really superb, slightly subar of mine but it's top notch nonetheless."
Her remark was recorded by the large team of scientists standing on one side and recording this entire experint with many strange devices they held.
"Let's test the defensive abilities then," Ara said before creating a distance from Nara, "here I co," she warned before moving fast with her spear directed at the dragon.
Nara controlled the dragon and suddenly the two pairs of wings changed shape and started to cover the dragon forming a big ball. The spear hit the dragon and sent it flying backwards, but obviously only a small scratch was left over the defensive wings.
"Impressive," Ara comnded, "you took a direct hit from and still stands still… really sturdy defense."
"Thanks," Nara simply said before adding, "can I switch to offense then?"
"Sure, give it all and let's see how strong this toy can be."
"Here I co," Nara warned before the wings retreated swiftly to their initial position. The next mont a part was separated from the belly of the dragon and in front of everyone a tallic sword appeared the next instant.
"Here I co," Nara held the sword with two claws before the lines over her dragon shone brightly and then the dragon jumped like a missile towards Ara.
And she only welcod this attack with her spear, yet her body faintly trembled and retreated a couple of ters to the back.
"Strong offensive power, I like it… again!"
Ara seed a bit excited and Nara kept pushing forward, hitting her with the sword at a superb speed. Ara was constantly on the defense, retreating backwards until she crossed an entire mile already.
"Enough," Suddenly Alia shouted, "this is already beyond the ti allocated to you."
"What's wrong?" Arthur couldn't help but ask.
"We need to conduct tests first," Alia said as she knew from the surface everything seed fine. "The lines over the dragon's body are getting fainter. This is an indicator for the energy depletion."
"And?"
"We need to know how long the cha could stay operational in a constant intense fight," Madly said, "but as this is our first and only functional cha we can't risk losing it here."
Arthur nodded and just as he glanced over the distance he found no trace of Ara. "Sigh, that girl really runs fast."
"What are you talking about?"
Ara's sneer ca from behind, startling him. "Ahem, I said nothing," he smiled in a way to cover up what he just said, "how was that fight?"
"I can say for sure if you can mass produce it then you won't need any of my team services," she said before glancing at Alia, "great invention, never heard of before but I'm sure it would beco very popular up there."
"Thanks," Alia said in gratitude, "but it still lacks a lot."
"As a start it's a great success," Ara said before adding, "I'll go to rest now," she turned to Arthur and warned, "don't disturb for a couple of days… I'm warning you!"
"Why do I feel so much hated recently?" Arthur couldn't help but complain while watching her vanish.
"Because you are such a cold blooded master asking others around."
"Sara," Arthur turned to face this beautiful lady who appeared coming from the stairs on one side, "you missed a great show," he hurriedly said.
"Don't try to trick here, I'm here to start a fight with you," she ca towards him in wide steps while her face showed how angry she was.
"What did he do this ti?" Amanda couldn't help but laugh.
"He… you left everything to for a couple of days and vanished… what the hell were you doing?"
Arthur smiled innocently while rubbing the back of his head, "I was just taking a day off here in the city."
"A day? That was three days, not a single day!" she bellowed in rage before adding, "do you know how things are when you aren't around… how can I take decisions about things that need your opinion? Huh?"
"You can just send a bird's wing," he joked and none laughed at his remark. "Alright, I'll be more responsible from now on."
"Humph, the vicious wolf is promising to be a vegetarian," Tina laughed as she ascended the stairs and joined the party as well.
"C'mon, I didn't give you a hard task lately, right?"
"You only gave the two of us the most boring stuff amongst all," the scorpion queen joined as well while laughing, "go there and stand guard for a couple of days… fortify the city as there will be an attack coming soon… all are boring stuff and I didn't even taste the sweet blood for weeks now!"
"Hahaha, I was just overprotected by you," Arthur tried to escape this combined attack and tried to move towards the stairs but Alia stopped him.
"You need to organize things better," she said with a smile, "Giving hard tasks to those who want so rest and giving rest to so ferocious girls… c'mon, even if you asked for it don't be this dumb."
Others laughed at her remark and Arthur could only smile helplessly, "alright, the next fighting task will be given to you," he promised.
"Sara?" Tina didn't believe him as she turned to the tigresse on her side. "There is a threatening army coming towards the recent group of cities we are building to the south," Sara said before adding, "can you handle it?"
"We can handle anything," the scorpion queen hurried to say, "send us now."
"And your armies?" Arthur asked in doubt, "you need first to amass them."
"Don't mind that," Tina said in pride, "our armies are always ready to be summoned and move on."
"Alright then," Sara smiled, "this task is for you."
"Hooray," the queen laughed before hurrying to fly away with the dragon next to her while Arthur stood beside Sara. "Are you sure this is a wise decision?" he muttered, "the last ti we sent them on such a task a disaster occurred and we got nothing back."
"Who said I sent them to a real fight," Sara evilly smirked, "I said there is a threatening army, not a real army attacking our cities."
"Hahaha, you are cruel," Arthur couldn't help but laugh while the others around sighed.
It was famous how the couple who just left now were so brutal in dealing with things. Before things got this far here, Sara had ti to control them but now they were totally on their own.
They didn't lose a fight, but the win they brought was void of any taste of victory as well. Not only did they keep losing large chunks of their elite armies, the gains they acquired were scarce as well.
They never stopped attacking the enemies even when they were showing signs of surrender, creating a paradoxical situation where desperate enemies were forced to fight until the last man.
And this ended every task they got in a disastrous closure.
