Tales Of The Mighty Dragonair

The first to appear were two monsters, as they thrashed into the place, tearing the trees in front of Arthur with their sharp, deadly claws. Arthur wasn't stupid to think he could face them face on, with his bow and sword alone, so he retreated, while grabbing his bow and taking one arrow after another, releasing them all towards the side, away from the two monsters up ahead.

Emy, standing nearby, was confused by his action, but when she observed the arrows, she felt shocked, greatly shocked from inside. The arrow Arthur released didn't go in a straight line, as natural laws indicated, but they curved, one after another, to aim directly towards the rear monsters, hitting their bodies hard, causing them slight pain and great anger.

Monsters weren't dumb creatures, especially those higher than rank three, so they roared violently, looking around them towards the direction these arrows came from, before flying towards there, deviating from the place of Arthur.

'What a strange man!' she muttered to herself, while watching the simple trap he laid, using his unique powers, to be effective in the most simple and amazing way.

As for Arthur, he was content with the success of his plan. He trusted the intelligence of these monsters, so they would move away from him. as for the two coming hot at him, he started to pay them his full attention for now.

He put away his bow, hanging it on his shoulder, side by side with the quiver he had there, then he raised his sword, facing these two little hills without hesitation.

Then he disappeared!

He used his foot move, to appear behind one of the monsters, hitting him hard with his sword, targeting its neck. The attack was suddenly fast, and with the slow movement of these monsters, Arthur was sure of his sword hitting them.

However, what he didn't consider was their thick defenses. Back there, Tally's ability made it easy for them to hurt monsters, without suffering from the strong defenses they had, but now Arthur had to suffer first hand with this defense.

His sword was stopped a few millimeters after digging deeply into the monster's skin. He didn't see that coming, but he rapidly adapted himself, disappearing again and appearing just behind the second monster, escaping the heavy strike he would have to face if he stayed in his position.

Though the monsters were slow, their claws were moving fast, especially when ignited by pain and rage. He wasn't polite to the second monster, as he hit him on the neck, like the first monster, while readying himself to the strong recoil his hand would suffer from this strike.

The only problem here was the sword itself, though it was a good caliber sword, it wasn't made to attack such heavily defended monsters. He disappeared again, reappearing behind the first monster, targeting the same place he hit before, deepening the wound, making the monster roar in a real pain this time.

He kept dancing like this, in front of the watching, amazed eyes of Emy, as he was able to handle two monsters like them alone, and with such great ease.

Emy was sure he wasn't a highly ranked mage, but from what she was seeing in front of her, this man was like a viper, an old experienced mage, with years and years of honed experience, that wasn't easy to acquire with rising in ranking alone.

She felt astonished, deeply touched by what she was seeing, not knowing the answer to her most urgent question, how did he acquire such skills and strength without being known?

As for Arthur, he kept moving around, harassing the two monsters, attacking the same spot over and over again, relentlessly, without feeling any distress whatsoever.

It wasn't that easy, even for him, considering he had such a weak body, but he had just opened his abilities, making him able to exert more powers without worrying about collapsing his body.

But he knew he couldn't continue like this forever. His opponents weren't only these two monsters, but there were another three behind, which they found no one in the false direction he lured them to, and now they were heading back to him.

So, he retreated again, creating enough, safe distance between him and the two monsters, before taking his bow again, releasing three arrows, controlling them to curve, travel a long distance to the side, before hitting the three monsters, stimulating their wrath again.

Being safe from them for now, he restarted his harassment over the monsters, while keeping an eye over the three up ahead, and another over his little gang behind.

The fight at their place was easier than his, going smoothly as they had the two monsters played like fools, without any chance for them to retaliate. The two monsters were now heavily wounded, and their bodies were already stained with blood, creating a bloody pool around them, before they finally couldn't move, surrendering to their fates and falling helplessly on the ground.

Arthur was pleased from their actions, as they already had three monsters captured, without even having a single wound.. He didn't delay as he retreated, luring the two angry monsters towards the group, while releasing more arrows to distract the three monsters far ahead.
