The Rise Of A Porter Chapter 100

"This is going to be troublesome." Arnold mumbled as his summons surrounded the body of the Dreadnought. He was seriously reconsidering whether he should resurrect it or not.
Through his past experience of resurrecting monsters, he knew exactly how much of a hassle gaining control over them was. Firstly, when a dead being was forcefully dragged back to the living world, it felt uncontrollable rage, think of it as if you were having the best dream of your life, it's peaceful and relaxing, but then out of nowhere someone poured a bucket of icy cold water on you and woke you up, of course you'd be furious. That's exactly what a resurrected being felt at the moment its resurrection, only it was a hundred time worse than the bucket of cold water.
Secondly, this rage made the being go berserk. Meaning the stronger the monster was during his life, the angrier it became after being resurrected and Arnold could only imagine what kind of power, something like the Dreadnought would display. This was the only reason why Arnold always performed resurrection inside his domain, because his domain granted him some authority over the resurrected being and even if he couldn't totally control the resurrected being, he could at least still force them to live inside his domain so that they don't cause any trouble to someone else, like what he was doing with Natasha.
Arnold had already seen what kind of havoc an A ranked monster could cause when he resurrected Asterios, and he didn't wanted to take any chances with the dreadnought who was way more deadlier than Asterios. Before doing anything else, Arnold instructed Asterios and Duke to remove the Dreadnought's club from its vicinity. As the size is the club was huge, it required the two of them to move it as far as they could muster to. All of his other summons were surrounding the Dreadnought, ready to strike it down if things went south. Arnold himself prepared a few grenades to deal with the situation if he needed to, though he doubted that it would get out of hand.

"Alright Talos, you can begin now." Arnold nodded and Talos immediately went to work. A large magical circle surrounded the body of the dreadnought and soon his wounds slowly got healed up like nothing had ever happened to it. Then slowly the Dreadnought raised itself once again. The summons stepped back a little as the gigantic Dreadnought got back to its feet.
Arnold thought the dreadnought would go berserk and slaughter his summons, but to his surprise the dreadnought actually bowed down to him as if it had already acknowledged Arnold as his master. This was the first time Arnold was experiencing such type of reaction from a resurrected monster. Even his other summons got a bit comfortable around the leviathan class monster. At this moment Asterios came back and proudly patted the back of the kneeling dreadnought, who was still taller than Asterios, even though the Minotaur was standing next to it.
But before Arnold let his guard down around the dreadnought, he quickly checked its stats.

"No wonder it's not going berserk that I forcefully pulled it out of the realm of 'peace', as it simply never was at peace to begin with." Arnold stepped towards the dreadnought and placed his hands on the Dreadnought's gigantic head. "I had no idea even monsters went through so much..."

"Hmm... I guess I should. After all it's a new beginning for you, isn't it?" Arnold smiled, "Let's see... what should I call you... Dread? It's good enough I guess."
Dread the dreadnought... yeah, it was something that only Arnold could think of, with the help of his 160+ intelligence. Anyways, Arnold was quite relieved that the resurrection happened so smoothly, and with that his work inside the domain was done, and he stepped out, which was lucky as someone knocked on the doors such as he did so.
'Right on time.' Arnold thought as he opened the door. Three men were standing in front of him, all of them were wearing an army uniform, just like the one Amanda was wearing, except that their dress was completely blue which indicated that they were from the R&D wing of the army. He knew this because, one is these people had led him to the workshop for the first time and briefed him about the requirements that the guns should have.
"Excuse us sir, we know it's very early and you've only started working on the weapons, but we'd be grateful if you could show us a prototype or something." The man standing in the middle said breathlessly.
"A prototype?" Arnold asked, "How many do you people need?"
"Around 3-4 should be sufficient for now." The guy standing on Arnold's left, spoke up.
"Sure! Why don't you guys come in and check them out."
"Wait so you've already made that many guns?" This time the guy on Arnold's right said as they walked into the workshop.
Arnold pointed at the table in front of them and said, "The boxes on the left contain the guns, the ammo is on the right."
Arnold was expecting them to be shocked or surprised as he had already completed the task that he was asked to complete in 2 days, but instead the three of them quickly started examining the guns and after a while grabbed a couple of them and started walking out.
"Um, excuse me, I should have ask this in the beginning but could you guys show me an ID or something? Just so that I know who is taking the weapons." Arnold stopped them before they left.
"An ID you say, sure, HERE'S THE ID!" One of them shouted as he dropped the guns and pulled out a dagger that was hidden inside his shirt and threw himself at Arnold.
As soon as the man attacked Arnold, the remaining two impostors ran towards the exit.
"Seriously?" Arnold smirked and grabbed the hands of his attacker and slammed him down. Once the man was down, he quickly used his ice abilities to freeze his legs to the ground.
It only took him a couple of seconds to get rid of the man. The remaining two impostors, looked back for a moment and saw their fallen comrade.
"I THOUGHT THE GUY WAS A CREATIONIST!" One of them shouted.
"THAT'S WHAT THE INFORMANT TOLD US!" The other guy replied.
"Oh please. Even I don't know what I am these days." Arnold shrugged his shoulders as he walked towards the impostors.
"How did you-"
KA-BOOM!
