Their faces showed an interesting expression for Arthur, who just chuckled at their reactions. He knew his territory was nothing to be proud of, but it was his, and he intended to make it very strong and mighty and prosperous in the next few days.
"Co, we will stay here today, arrange sothing first, then head back to my clan HQ," Arthur said, as he turned to look at Madly, "go and inform grandpa Regil, I want to speak with him and with the main craftsn here," he added, as he intended to start reorganizing things here first before heading ho.
Just as Madly vanished with the company of her little gang, leaving Drago behind, Arthur slled so strange stress in the atmosphere, a very depressed mood reigning over everyone here.
Just as he took a few steps in the streets of the market village, voices claiming his return echoed in the whole village, and suddenly everyone left what they were doing, and ca here to et him.
Arthur didn't like this, but he didn't say anything, waited until all the villagers gathered around him, with a relief look over so, and more worry over others.
"Oh, you are finally back, thanks gods for your safe return, thanks gods."
Suddenly grandpa Regil's voice ca from behind him, making him turn to face him. beside him, Madly and the other stood, lowering their head, with gloomy expressions over their faces.
"What's wrong?" Arthur finally couldn't hold himself back and asked.
"It's… it's…" grandpa Regil stuttered, didn't know how to say this on news to him.
"It's your father, he was attacked by mages from the white rabbit clan, killed in battle, and your clan ho is now occupied by them," Madly finally said it, while evading the gazes of Arthur.
Arthur didn't have a personal impression of that man except from the brief mont he woke up in this world. He knew for sure that that man really loved his son, and this love was sothing he deeply respected.
He knew he had to act like Willy here, so he wouldn't arouse any suspicions. This extre action from the white rabbit clan was playing along his own plans, so though he was smiling deep inside him, his face showed a very great anger, as he shouted:
"We will move there now!"
He didn't stand a mont here, as he darted outside the village. everyone bought his little act, as it was the only act they expected from him, and so they also followed him, not only his crew, but also the normal villagers here.
This small gesture from the villagers made Arthur realize how deeply respected he and that dead father of his enjoyed here. He respected back such feelings, and he knew how to repay them.
As for his group, they already knew how strong he and they were, so they marched following his lead, with Ron walking alone by his side, not saying a word, as this was a great calamity to befall upon Arthur's house.
Throughout the way, the villager's kept gossiping from behind in a soft whisper, and everyone knew the details of what happened. That distasteful uncle had betrayed his brother in battle, and now he was sitting on the throne of the clan, enjoying the treat of the leader.
However this uncle never gained the trust or the respect of anyone in the whole clan, and inside the territory of it, but no one was strong enough to oppose this force aiding this traitor from the shadows.
Arthur knew his guesses were right, and this was all the doings of the black raven clan. He wasn't upset, though, as this would accelerate his plans, and give him all the reasons to act and do what he intended to do here.
Along the way, they crossed over another village that Arthur never saw before. It was in the sa miserable state like grandpa Regil's village, and the villagers there also followed the lead of him towards the clan.
It was a grand march, getting bigger and bigger with ti. it seed the news travelled fast around here, as many villagers just kept popping up from nowhere, enlarging their march from re hundreds into a few thousands.
When they reached the outskirts of the clan base, they exceeded ten thousand villagers, all ca to support Arthur, even if all they could do was to cheer for him.
Arthur stood on the main entrance of the clan, where there were no walls here to guard it, thought the buildings seed more neatly organized, and showed so decent architecture.
Arthur's presence seed to be heard by those traitors inside, as once he ca towards the clan base, he spotted a group of one hundred mages standing there, and that uncle of Willy was standing in the middle of them.
"They are mages from the guild," Omar muttered, as he and the other two managed to spot many familiar faces.
"Is that white rabbit clan that rich?" Randy wondered, as he never expected for a weak, unheard of clan to possess such wealth.
"It's not them, it's the black raven clan," Alia muttered, as she glanced at Arthur, as if she was wondering how he saw all this coming.
"Did the guild respond yet?" Arthur suddenly asked, in a fake angry tone.
"No, they didn't," Alia replied instantly.
"Ok, we will do this in this way," he said as he turned to look at them, at the mont when that traitor, Willy's uncle, moved to the front in preparation to speak to him, saying anything that had no value to Arthur. "we will attack them, kill them all. If any mage surrendered, then he will beco our prisoner," he added, before turning to walk towards that group of mages, while that uncle of his said:
"My nephew, did you co here to surrender to ? surrender and pledge your loyalty, and I promise I won't kill you."
"And I promise I will kill you all," Arthur spurted that out, while he waved his hand, and a huge, two horned rhinoceros appeared out of nowhere, standing beside him, with its huge body.
