"Sorry my liege, but my weapon needs time to be adjusted and charged," William apologised to the king, "I need to find the most suitable location for my weapon to show its might."
"It's indeed quite handy," the king nodded, "but you said it'll be used to take down the mountains around."
"I know, but I couldn't build it the way I wanted," William didn't want to use the weapon for now, wanted to let them go and fight the dark masters first, try to find any trap before using his weapon.
And he was still feeling a bit salty about losing the dragons. So he wanted them to struggle a little on top of that.
"Cool, but the masters are tired," Sloth shrugged, not buying any of what William just said, "We need to wait for a few days then."
"Risking more monsters to arrive? Come on, we need to go and start dealing with those dark masters."
