He knew they were strong because of the affection they got from the world's energy. And now he was using the opposing kind of energy to seal their bodies off the world's dark energy.
They could only use their own energy now, something that would turn them eventually weaker.
And their sense of energy was so superb that any shift in the energy in their bodies would be instantly detected.
Along with that, they also determined the sole reason behind that strange phenomenon they were feeling at the moment.
"Die you bastard!" The dragonair grandmaster turned instantly into a grand dragon with black and thick scales. Arthur watched the mage turn into a grander dragon than him however that didn't startle him.
He knew he would get attacked, and he was ready for that.
"Woosh!" the dragonair grandmaster sprayed his fountain of deadly fire towards him.. This time Arthur didn't use his plan and simply opened his mouth and sprayed another fire breath against that.
His fire breath was unique. After all he was a blue dragonair, a unique existence amongst dragonairs.
Despite the disparity between the energies of the two, the level of his breath fire compensated that.
And as a result, a very shocking scene was born in this world in front of the watchful gazes of all the mages and grandmasters here.
"Oho, he is really something!" one of the grandmasters on the side of George said in surprise, "he could even rival that mad dragon's fire breath… that's amazing! Really amazing!"
"…"
George was feeling proud, and slightly puzzled. The fire breath Arthur unleashed wasn't anything he knew of before.
"But what's wrong with his fire breath?" another grandmaster asked, pointing out towards the strange thing here, "I never saw or heard about something like that. Is he a lightning dragonair? A fire dragonair? Or what?"
His puzzlement was justified. After all these grandmasters lived their entire lives studying their foes to the bones. They all were very familiar with the dragonair clan, knowing their variations and way of fighting.
Standing shoulder to shoulder against such a strong foe was a remarkable feat indeed, but that type of fire Arthur used made it more shocking and unbelievable.
"Don't have any funny thoughts everyone," George suddenly said with a smirk, "this lad is my successor. It's not allowed for anyone to try and pouch him, alright?"
His words poured cold water over everyone's heads, all except two.
Aemie's eyes sparkled with greed. She already made her move towards him despite knowing his relation with George. She couldn't say she wasn't afraid of George, but she put her clan before anything else.
And also there was another one who was daring enough to ask:
"What if I asked him?"
These words forced a heavy silence all over the place. The grandmasters stole silent glances towards each other and then towards George.
"My esteemed lady…" George struggled to find a suitable answer before adding, "it's a privilege that such a mighty person like you will be interested in my mere successor."
The white angel mage's face didn't show any sign of backing off at the moment. In fact the moment she saw what Arthur was able to do she made up her mind.
"A snake could be mighty if given fire to breathe it as a weapon, and could be a dragon if given wings as well," the white angel lady said while her words carried out her real intentions here.
George remained silent and his face was sullen. He knew he could antagonize anyone and reject any request for Arthur, anyone but her.
"Wise words indeed," he finally broke his serious face and showed a warm smile, "as his godfather, I can only be happy and proud of him in this case."
The white angel mage nodded in appreciation while everyone around felt great envy towards George and the bronzed giant clan at the moment.
Arthur gained now another godfather, or godmother to be precise. And she wasn't just anyone, she was the extremely powerful and the only living white angel mage in the entire universe.
How couldn't they feel envy towards the bronzed giants and George for having such a promising prodigy under his care?
As for Arthur, he stood at his place unaware of all this. The fight with the grandmaster of the dragonair clan was so intense using his breath fire.
The two fire breaths met together and clashed, pushed each other back and forth. At first his fire breath was on the backfoot here until he finally managed to use a little help from the white energy he was gathering around.
He couldn't use it as his own, however he could control it to cover up his fire breath, adding more power to it.
And as such his fire breath didn't only stop retreating, it also started to push the dragonair grandmaster's fire breath backwards.
"Damn you!" another grandmaster spoke before all of sudden he turned around, "this seems to be an inner strife in the dragonair clan. I have no business here so… farewell everyone."
In the middle of this intense clash, Arthur had to drop a lot of his focus on the grandmasters and the two remaining portals. As such the grandmasters started to feel more comfortable while their former power returned slowly to them.
That grandmaster suddenly vanished as he headed directly towards one of the remaining two portals here. This was indeed a backstab to the dragonair grandmaster, and that made the latter feel real anger towards that grandmaster.
He knew if that one escaped, others would follow. In the end he would be trapped alone here with Arthur, surrounded with far stronger enemies in power and number.
"I won't be abandoned like this!" the dragonair grandmaster suddenly roared before he stopped his fire breath.
Arthur was taken aback by what happened before he saw that grandmaster vanish.
The next moment that grandmaster appeared running towards the second portal.
This sudden change made everyone standing here see the end result. The last to pass through that portal would be the one to be abandoned and killed here.
