Splash! A puddle of water was stepped on and it's contents splashed everywhere. It was still pouring with rain and the sky was as dark as it could be. With the sun light right under the deep and unfathomable darkness it was clear that it was still dusk.But no one could be seen on the road that was made by harsh bricks. No one, but Arthur. He was running, alone in the streets while looking back as if something was chasing him. He looked around for help,he looked around for hope, but little did he know, in this world, in this gate, he was all alone.A few moments ago...Arthur entered the cave in the 28th floor locus where the gate was at. It had about four people waiting right in front of it, seemingly for preparation, mentally and physically.As they saw Arthur enter the cave, they were silent and allowed him to pass. He looked at them with a awkward smile as he didn't know how to respond.But the awkwardness disappeared as he entered the gate and was teleported to the world that he w
"No, we are not. At least, not yet. I have found a quick solution, and that is where you come in." Arthur said as he pointed at the Head of Diplomatic Affairs."You are planning to sign a peace treaty right?" The Head of Diplomatic Affairs asked.Arthur nodded, "If we do that we don't need to spend as much money and lives.""Well, that might be true. But it's not easy to settle things in peace either. They have so much to gain if they go to war. If they sign the peace treaty, the amount of money that they will be able to get is astronomical." The Head of Diplomatic Affairs said."Oh, I know. But don't worry, I know exactly what to do." Arthur said as he laid his back on his chair."For now call the diplomatic heads of our neighboring countries, I will be talking to them"Just as he ordered, the Head of Diplomatic Affairs followed and now Arthur was in a room filled with Heads of Diplomatic Affairs from four of the neighboring countries. They were quiet, very quiet, as they saw Arthur
Arthur sat and looked at the King with a Poker face as King Alston laughed. "You are the first person who made a joke about me. Not even the King that you removed dared to do that. It seems that he rumors of you being fearless is an understatement.""I am flattered. But I don't remember coming here to laugh with you." Arthur said before taking out a piece of paper form his inventory.King Alston saw this and smiled. "Oh, it seems that you gave mastered inventory magic as well. Not only are you fearless, you have the skills to back it up as well.""Again, thank you for the compliment, but I don't. need it. Now, I think your men have already sent you a mana recording of the weapon I have and are aware of how dangerous it could be, especially for your kingdom." Arthur said.King Alston gulped before looking at Arthur. "Yes. I have seen it. And the worst part is when my magicians confirmed it to be trustworthy and not forged.""I know better than to lie to a group of high skilled individu
Artur spent the rest of the day in his carriage and meeting the other Kings in the other Kingdoms and making the same threats and getting the same deal.The King's agreed to having his embassy inside of their nation, it wasn't as if they had a choice either. Some even said that he was worse than the previous King, and all of them had the same idea. And that was to infiltrate Arthur's castle and steal the whole nuclear bomb and copy it so they can use it for themselves.But little did they know, everyone else had the same idea.A lot information had appeared and it showed that the nuclear bomb was in the middle of the castle and had little to no security there. And so right after a few days, spies tried taking the bomb with them but the weight of the bomb was something that they really underestimate, "We need at least 100 men to carry this..." One of the spies said as he looked at the big nuclear bomb.But then a sound came from the door and so they immediately ran out of the hall usin
Fearless, Brave, Unstoppable, that was what most people would say when they saw Arthur pretending to be The Beast on the road, but in his heart, he knew that he was the opposite.Despite how he looked, he was walking away from the disaster that he knew was coming to the whole continent. The physique of the brave and unstoppable man was nothing more than a shell carrying a man who was running for his life.He looked at his left and right, and saw the people who was mourning for him, believing that the leader that they have just chose have died. Some were even ready to go and wage war against countries that they suspected might have caused his death, he sweated more profusely as he saw the ignorant people walking around town and crying, 'Fools,' He thought, 'You all should be running away, not crying!'.He wanted to help them, but no matter how he thought about it, he and the people of this country would die nevertheless. But suddenly a kid ran up to him and bumped into him and fell on
"I suppose everyone is here already?" Arthur asked in a small room that had no windows and was covered with the strongest steel that could be found. Inside was the 4 kings that represented the 4 kingdoms that was surrounding the country that Arthur was leading. But now they were not sitting to benefit their own self, but for the survival of all creatures. "Arthur, we are only 4 kings. Including you 5, what is there to ask?" King Alston said with sweat visibly coming out of his fatty neck.Arthur nodded before going to the chalkboard and started drawing a dragon, "This is what we will be facing in a day or two if we are lucky. But if we pray hard, maybe three. We are here because, I don't want any of us to be enemies anymore, at the very least let be peaceful with each other before we finish killing that dragon." He said before pointing the chalk at the dragon that he just drew.King Alston nodded as he looked at the other Kings. "I agree. There is no reason for us to fight for weal
The whole place that used to be a factory has now become a roofless building with the tip of the missile high in the sky.Arthur and the King's have been standing for hours and walking around just to make sure that everyone was working as efficiently as possible knowing that their death might come anytime soon.One of the messenger coming that was sent by the soldiers spying on the dragon ran inside of the building and as he saw Arthur, he ran straight to him, "Sir, the dragon will be awake in 3-4 hours. I have received orders to tell you that you might have to run away and hide." The messenger said with sweat drenched all across his shirt. And the stench that Arthur could smell meant that the workload was too much."I'm not going anywhere, and neither are anyone here. There is no way we will be able to run away from this thing. If it wants to find you. It will find you." Arthur said fully confident that his plan will work before he ran to the head engineer and wizard of the operation.
Arthur started running towards the empty and abandoned kingdom where the gates were still functional and not damaged.With using all of the fibers in his legs he ran as fast as he could and closed the gates of the kingdom and continued running and felt that it was starting to drizzle.As he looked up he could not only see the sky getting darker but the cloud getting bigger with rain drizzling above his helmet.Boom! The gate of the castle broke down in a matter of second as the dragon appeared out of it. "You think that a gate could stop me??? The human mond is so much simpler than I thought." It shouted as looked at the direction that Arthur ran towards."You cannot run from me. I am unfathomable in every area. I can fly faster than all the other dragons, I can see everything that is hidden, even the heavens bow down at the mercy of my roar. And you, a human, think you can defeat me?" It shouted again as fire started appearing around the mouth and nose of the dragon. Arthur continue
