Tales Of The Mighty Dragonair
Chapter 36 - Making A Pool Full Of Explosive OilAfter cutting the meat to pieces fit to be cooked, Arthur looked towards Ouly as he said:
"I will go and make the pet contracts for each one, and you will have Don to help you get the seasonings from the wood, and don't forget the wood for fire as well."
Ouly was very excited for Arthur trust in him, as he said:
"I will go and be back in no time."
Arthur just watched him jump over the wall, with Don in his tail, as he sighed. If he had time, he would go personally to collect the herbs and other seasonings, but he couldn't do everything on his own.
Ouly, and the others, were getting stronger, and he had to put them to test. He was worried over Ouly, so he decided to send Don with him. Arthur thought about sending Lily as well, to monitor him from the sky, but he was afraid this might be risky over Lily, especially since she hadn't yet recovered from her injuries.
Arthur then got himself busy, as he started, first, selecting those fitting monsters to be pets. He chose the strongest, with the tallest bodies, and long horns. After he selected one for each one of his group, he then started the preparations of the contract.
The first one to try the pet process was Madly, as she decided not to be named master, but queen. The name tempted her when she heard Arthur speaking about the pythons' queen. Arthur didn't reject her request, and he did the contract with her being the queen. After he finished, a tattoo appeared on her back, small, sparkling, and very attractive. Madly couldn't see it, but she was satisfied greatly by the reactions and eyes of envy from everyone.
As she was the first, everyone then followed. Arthur kept himself busy making the contracts, but he never moved his senses away from Ouly. His worries were groundless, as it seemed the presence of all these pythons here terrorized every other monster in the area.
Ouly came back when Arthur was about to make Ron's contract. Ron was the last one before Lily, who chose to be the last one ever. She didn't think she could have two pets at the same time, but Arthur was optimistic about her odds.
He had to stop, momentarily, as he went with the team to help Ouly and Don. This time, five huge pythons appeared, forming a bridge to pass over. Ouly, after a moment of pause, followed Don over their scales. Arthur just checked on what he brought, and he felt greatly satisfied, as everything he brought was strangely identical to what Arthur used last time.
'Good lad,' Arthur just commended him silently in his mind. "It's your turn now, get in the circle."
Arthur then led Ouly to the place of making contracts. As thank you, he made him contract the pythons ahead of Ron, who didn't like it at first, but he swallowed it after he got his turn and received the pet.
The group then started to summon their pets, examine them with sparkling eyes, even giving them orders, like run there, go to the river and return. In Arthur's eyes, they were just kids, happy by Christmas eve gifts. He just watched the fun for moments, before focusing on the transformation Lily was having right now.
The dome shaped at the contract took much more time than usual, but eventually she emerged from it safely, and the pythons were already gone. Arthur then checked her back, to find the tattoo there, lying normally like others.
"Try it out then," he demanded.
She didn't delay and summoned the python, however nothing happened. Arthur saw the distress over her face, and calmed his mind.
"You need to withdraw your summoned pet first," he remarked, finding the fault here. she nodded, as Birdy disappeared, while after that a large python appeared. She, like a little girl, jumped high, clapped her two hands, as she was extremely happy.
She then went on rampage with the others, playing some fake battles with their pets. Arthur just looked at them and, helplessly, shook his head. 'I didn't make you stronger just for that!' he muttered to himself, before he looked towards his big trophy.
'Not yet,' he muttered, as he turned to look at the playing group, before yelling:
"That's enough for now. All of you help Ouly in making the pits, grab the woods, start the fire."
They looked, in discontent, towards him, feeling some upset from his orders, yet they all moved to execute them.
Arthur didn't just stand there doing nothing, as he started giving them pointers about how deep were the pits supposed to be, how much wood each pit should have, even the side of wood he commented on. what he did was to repeat the info Ouly generously provided before, hoping it would stick this time.
After he finished instructing them, he started to care about the meat. He grabbed the detoxification glands, grind them into powder, and sprayed part of it over each meat. He didn't use the whole amount, as he needed to save some for the rest of the pythons, plus he wanted also to save some for later uses.
Finished from that, he ordered them to start fire, stood by their sides for one hour, giving pointers about how to spread seasonings over the meat, how to care about it over fire, and most important of all how to keep the appropriate fire under the meat.
He noticed the presence of oily material falling off these meat, and each time they fell, the fire expanded greatly, in a fearful way.
So, he asked Madly to create a rapid container of wood reserves from the logs he used in making the walls, then he changed the position of each meat to be slightly oblique, to make all the oil fall into one direction where he put these large pots.
For him, he knew this oily matter would be handy in the future. Just a single drop and an explosion happened, imagine liters of it. Arthur heard of a chemical cultivator, who was very famous in his previous world. This man wasn't a strong cultivator on his own, but he marveled at creating many elixirs that could annihilate a lot of cultivators in one go.
Arthur was lucky to meet him once, as he saw some of that man's creations. One of them was the reason for his fame, an explosive elixir that rumors said could turn a whole forest into a sea of flames.
Arthur wouldn't do that to this forest, but he wouldn't hesitate to burn his enemies. so, he took this matter very seriously, and even assigned Madly to this job, to keep this oil safe.
Madly, after knowing and seeing by herself how dangerous this oil was, decided to dig a large pit in one corner with the help of her new pet. After that, she started to put wood on the sides, covering the whole pit with it. she even used her toolkit to make this happen.. After she finished, a wooden pool was there full of oil, explosive oil.
