Arthur's words managed to silence everyone. Despite that he knew they weren't that satisfied with his way of dealing with this situation.
For him he could risk his life to run away, but he doubted that monster would let him walk far before using its full potential against him.
Which was something he didn't want to see happening.
On the other side, if he figured out what that monster wanted from him then he might be able to have an extra card up his sleeve.
A card that he was so desperate to get in this world.
"Rumble!"
It didn't take long for the anxious monster to crack open the portal and get inside the world. The sky seemed to get a deep wound, something that seemed very frightening while watching it happening from the ground.
Yet that didn't force Arthur to move. He stood still while watching the gigantic head and tentacles of that monster passing through the crack in the sky.
"Make sure to let it move freely," Arthur's next words were shocking, "I don't want to give a bad impression to our guest."
'But... That's a risky gamble!' Gege was more anxious than the monster itself.
"Just do it," Arthur was so fixated on waiting and seeing what that monster wanted, "it's not an everyday occurance to have such a VIP guest in our world."
'...'
She seemed not to be convinced by his words, neither did the other two. Yet no one spoke and they remained silent while watching the monster crush on the ground.
"The moment of truth," Arthur flew in the sky to watch the devastation that landing caused. The monster caused a giant cloud of dust and crushed many trees there.
"Roar!"
In the middle of all this, Arthur couldn't see where the monster was before he heard a mighty roar out of it coming from a different direction he was spotting.
And the next moment the gigantic body of that monster darted from the cloud of dust while using its tentacles as legs to move.
And it was moving very fast.
"Yeah it's very anxious to get what it came here for," Arthur, on the contrary to any logic, was laughing in strange excitement.
'Are you... Ok?' Gege asked in doubt while the other two remained silent.
"I'll be good after knowing what it's after," Arthur said before thinking for a moment, "is there anything special in the direction it's taking?"
'Ding! You seemed not worried at all,' the system couldn't help but express his thoughts.
"If it was here to kill me then the first thing it should do was to attack me. Instead he totally ignored me and went to search around."
'That doesn't mean it's not dangerous,' the golden dragon warned.
"It's not dumb," Arthur sneered, "it's already aware that whatever it wants is part of my soul."
'So in order to get it, it has to play nice with you,' the golden dragon finally got what Arthur was aiming for from the beginning.
"Bingo," Arthur said, "Did you find anything?" he asked and this time Gege was the one to answer.
'The only thing I could think of is the Golam's lake.'
"Lake?" Arthur paused for a moment before returning to fly again. "Don't tell me it wants to drink my Golam's purified blood lake... That's interesting."
'It's good and bad,' Gege said, 'the lake is very good for any monster, even for you. But...'
"It lacks the enough amount to satisfy this gigantic one," Arthur understood her point at once. Yet he didn't panic as he remained silent before asking:
"We have more ancient monster corpses buried deeply inside the garden, right?"
'Wanna me to purify some?' Gege already read his thoughts and knew what he was aiming for.
"The more the merrier."
'Well... this process will take a long time to happen. But I can't guarantee good results,' she warned, 'many of these corpses lack enough blood to purify.'
"We have to try," Arthur shrugged as if he didn't care about that, "any result is a good result for me."
'Alright, I'll start working then.'
Arthur didn't speak while keeping his distance away from the ground monster. The monster didn't care about anything but its goal, so it left behind a long trail of ruins and even changed some terrain in the process.
"Roar!"
As the monster got near the lake, it seemed to be stirred by it before roaring in what Arthur felt as excitement.
"Is it smart enough to have a chat with me?" he suddenly asked, "I don't want to only roar in return for my words."
'Well,' the golden dragon was the expert here regarding such things, 'I believe it's as smart as you.'
"I hope so," Arthur laughed before watching the monster running close to the lake.
"Splash!"
The moment the monster got so near, it didn't even pause and pushed its body high in the air. It landed heavily in the Golam lake, causing giant waves moving around.
"So it's after my lake," Arthur had an evil smile over his face, "let's see what he wants to do with it... Gege..."
'On it,' Gege went into silence for a long minute while Arthur kept himself flying in the air. The monster once inside the lake didn't appear again. Even the ripples on the surface started to calm down in a strange way.
'Well... it seems we have a little surprise here,' Gege said with a short laugh.
"What?" As she didn't add more, Arthur had to personally ask.
'We have a female octopus who wanted to come here and hibernate,' Gege said and the more she spoke the more lost Arthur had.
"Hibernate... For what? Evolution?" Arthur's eyes shone brightly when he thought about that.
He witnessed those lycans attacking it. Their attacks couldn't only inflict superficial injuries to it, making it a very valuable weapon in his hands.
'No,' Gege said, 'it's...'
'Pregnant?' the golden dragon suddenly spoke before hysterically laughing, 'Damn man, your luck is endlessly good!'
"Is it true?" Arthur was more excited when he heard about that.
'The tree confirmed it to me,' Gege said, 'so it's true.'
"Wow," Arthur laughed, "how many siblings are we speaking here?"
'For such a level?' the golden dragon took the lead to answer, 'I believe nothing below ten or twelve perhaps.'
"That's... very big news," Arthur's eyes shone again while he imagined a world with such gigantic monsters leading his armies and defending his empire.
'But I have to warn you,' the golden dragon hurriedly said, 'they will need more time to come to this world and they will be very glutinous.'
"I don't care," Arthur turned around, "they will be the future pillars of my empire."
