Anything that tried to harm Arthur or the stick was instantly negated, and even a couple of dark masters got involved in these pulses, and the next moment their body exploded.
"Run!"
Another shout came and this time the dark masters didn't hold anything to run away.
"Stop them, don't let them run away," but Mr. E didn't plan to let them escape this easily.
He was worried if they retreated to regroup with other dark masters, forming a mighty force they couldn't handle with their limited numbers and strengths.
As he gave the order, the fight between the two sides turned upside down. One was running and the other kept attacking and trying to intercept them.
Arthur was immersed in releasing his arrows, and suddenly when he reached the hundred one, the stick exploded releasing such a mighty wave that enveloped the entire world in less than a second.
The world shone brightly in bronze color in front of him for minutes, before the light subsided to the stick again which lost all the aura holding it and hit the ground simply like a normal stick.
Yet what it left there was a world without a single trace of any dark master! Even the portal these masters were trying their best to reach was shattered under that light.
"Wow, so I know how to better use it," Arthur nodded in content while watching the amazed faces of everyone around.
"You…" Mr. E paused, didn't know what to say here, "you have such a good master up there."
"Hehehe, it's just my luck," Arthur laughed before adding, "I'll go to get that pillar then we'll have to clear the outside world."
"Leave the outside world to us," Cesile said, "we can clear it in less than half an hour."
"No," Mr. E shook his head, "we'll do it in ten minutes." He turned to face his group before adding, "let's go, we'll go all out."
Everyone nodded and moved towards the portal. "Give us ten minutes then take the pillar," Mr. E said before vanishing into the portal nearby.
Arthur stood there all alone, while the entire world was now deadly silent. "Sigh, I still have so long road ahead of me," he muttered and his system spoke after so much silence.
'Ding! You aren't bad either.'
"I know," Arthur went to grab the stick before storing it with utmost care in his garden, "but it's not near enough!"
'Ding! Don't rush out things, give yourself a couple of years first.'
Arthur glanced around and sighed. "It's not me who is rushing, it's them," he muttered before turning towards the nearest meat pulp in front of him. "Can I turn this one into a dragon?" he suddenly asked and this question made the system silent for some minutes.
'Ding! I don't know the answer to that question,' the system said before adding, 'Ding! Theoretically speaking it should work, but as you can see; they are all in their human forms and their bodies are crushed.'
"Let's give it a try then," Arthur shrugged as he had nothing else to do beside that. "start the dragomancer ability," he said while putting his hand over the muddled body of that dark master.
Yet after waiting for a couple of minutes, nothing happened except a faint tremble at first then the aura Arthur ingested inside the body didn't make any other changes.
"Is it a failure then?" he muttered.
'Ding! I felt a reaction for the moment there,' the system said before adding, 'Ding! May I suggest something?'
"What?"
'Ding! I believe the level of this corpse is way higher than anything you dealt with before. I think you'll need to use many attempts to make it work.'
"You mean to let go a couple of times to summon one dragon?" Arthur said.
'Ding! That's my theory.'
"Well…" Arthur sighed, "let's try it out then. After all I don't think I'll need the help of my dragons anytime soon."
'Ding! Alright, I'll keep activating the ability until it works.'
As the system started doing so, Arthur felt the pulses of energy emanate from his hand towards the smashed body. Each pulse created a stronger reaction, yet after ten times the body didn't show any signs of turning into a dragon yet.
'Ding! Shall I stop?' the system asked.
"Keep pushing," Arthur said, "I want to see what this will lead us to," he glanced over the other dead bodies here. "I have around forty of them here and around a dozen back in the previous world."
'Ding! Don't forget the others in the next worlds.'
"Yes, and them as well," Arthur nodded as he added, "Give it all, use all the attempts I have one after another until this corpse transforms."
'Ding! Alright, all out then.'
The system started to use the ability repeatedly. Each time the reaction to the pulse energy emitted from Arthur's hands was stronger than before, yet it took twenty-five pulses to make the corpse suddenly tremble vigorously.
"Stop," Arthur shouted before jumping backward. The next moment the area he stood at just exploded. Not only that location, but it seemed in a radius of fifty meters around the corpse; anything was smashed to nothing by strange oppressive pressure.
And that pressure just came from the corpse itself.
"Wow, I have big expectations for this one here," Arthur laughed as he watched the corpse parts start to coalesce and then change started to occur.
It started by swallowing up, gaining more height and it kept rising until it reached a staggering height of one hundred meters.
Then the corpse showed the characteristics of a dragon; horns, wings, long and heavy tail, thick scales, and very sharp claws.
The changes kept happening for ten minutes before a gigantic form of a dragon started to stand erect.
When it did, Arthur knew he got himself something different than he used to. The dragon had the height of one hundred meters while sitting on the ground, and when it stood erect, the height simply doubled!
