Chapter 563 - Lie An



"Tell me everything you know about this world."

Arthur stood in front of a group of a thousand survivors of the academy here. Their faces showed how much pain and agony they just went through, and Arthur could clearly see the deep hatred and seeds of vengeance inside their eyes.

"My name is Lie An," one of them, a middle aged man with strips of whiteness among his black hair said, "I… I was the dean of the Hor academy or what once was."

Arthur nodded as he felt sympathy towards them but he didn\'t want to waste time here on exchanging useless words. "And?" he asked.

"This world was once ruled by dark clans ages ago but the clans moved to higher realms and used here as a stop station for the next generations before coming to the higher realms," Lie An said before adding, "that was the case until two days ago. Suddenly we were invaded by legions of higher realm clans and they killed and devastated our academy for no reason."

"Your academy was that special?" Arthur wondered.

"We were good, but not that good to be honest, "Lie An said before taking a deep breath, "there are far stronger academies than us. We can be considered as a lower academy here."

"Interesting," Arthur muttered before adding, "then if so why targeting you?"

"We produced some strong mages in the recent centuries whom went up there and caused some ruckus as far as we know," the face of Lie And showed his hesitation before adding, "other than standing against the remnants of the dark clans here in our world, and those sporadic cases of strong mages we produced over long time; we have nothing else to think of."

"This…" Arthur paused before sighing, "not enough reason to devastate you."

He glanced around before asking, "here was the main base of the academy, right?"

"It is," Lie An answered.

"What about other survivors?"

Lie An sighed before saying, "we sent as much as we can towards the highly secretive sanctions."

"Where?"

"Well…" Lie An showed his hesitation and at this point Arthur took out the medallion he received before coming here. "I was told by this I have the right to rule over you."

"The… The ancestral medallion…" Lie An and the others around showed shocked expressions over their faces before they showed strange anger the next moment. "You thieves… it was you who stole it from us a decade ago!"

Arthur didn\'t know if he should cry or laugh. "First of all," Arthur had to state things clearly and obviously here for the survivors to understand their current position, "if I wanted you all dead then I can simply do that. As you can see, I have a strong army that answers to my call and even those coming from higher realms can\'t stand a chance against me."

His words came with such a domineering attitude before he added, "and I came here to lead you to conquer this entire world and serve under me. If you don\'t show the proper answer I expect now, then I will ditch you all here and go and seek another academy to work with."

"B- But…" Lie An didn\'t know what to say as he exchanged silent glances with those around, "this medallion is a sacred treasure left by the founder of our academy in the past. You should give it to us first before talking about other conditions."

"Sigh," Arthur helplessly shook his head before taking away the medallion, "it seems you still do not fully understand your situation. Let\'s go everyone, this is a hopeless place to start at."

Arthur then turned into a dragon the next instant, clearly startling others around. His team didn\'t speak or hesitate to move behind him, heading far towards the distance.

"Hey, wait…" Lie And suddenly shouted, "Isn\'t it best to negotiate and not leave empty handed like that?"

"The only one leaving empty handed here is you not us," Madly suddenly sneered, "our clan head is generous enough to speak casually with you like this. However after seeing your daring attitude, it\'s logic for us to leave and seek other places. After all we are the ones who others would dream of working under."

The words of Madly stopped Lie An in his tracks. His face told her and others much about his feelings.

"He is still living the delusion of his destroyed academy\'s glorious moments," Amelia softly chuckled, "it\'s best to let him live this dream."

"We will go on a tour in this world," Arthur sighed, "I hoped to get more data from them but it seemed they were beyond saving."

"We can just go and annex any clan or academy here," Tina said in excitement, "we aren\'t weak or few."

"I know," Arthur knew she was referring to his stored up towns and villages inside his garden world, "but I wanted to depend on this world\'s resources to build another city here."

"We can build our city ourselves my lord," Deem said before Gor added, "All we need is a perfect location and to annex some workers then building the city won\'t take long."

"We need resources and intel," Arthur muttered before turning his gaze towards the distant Lie An and his group who were now in hot debate, "let\'s keep walking then and give them more time to think."

"How much?" Sara asked.

"A day is enough," Arthur thought before adding, "but you three should go around and scout the area. I need more intel and data."

"We can get Lily and her flying squad from inside," Madly suggested.

"We can bring everyone out," Omar added.

"In time," Arthur simply nodded as he added, "we first need to know where we are and if there is a better place than here nearby."

"Ok," the queen excitedly flapped her wings before adding, "leave this to me. I\'ll make sure to bring back some survivors."

Arthur gave her a helpless glance as he knew she referred to her survivors not the dark clan\'s attack survivors. "Don\'t over do it, alright?" he stressed and she simply chuckled, giving him the impression that she wouldn\'t listen to any of his words.
