Dragon Monarch System

17 Chapter 17:- Incoming Darkness

"As long as, it's not too much, I will grant your wish." Since Amber was Aditya's future general, he had to give his general certain privileges. But that doesn't mean he will grant them anything.

After hesitating for a minute, Amber finally decided to open her mouth. "Young Master, if someday I asked you to save the fox race and give people of the fox race a place in your Kingdom, will you grant my request?"

Almost all of the beast race people lived on another continent. With the development and passage of time, a small part of the beast race people moved to different continents in order to find better living conditions. From what Aditya has heard, almost 80% of the beast race continent was prairie and rocky mountains. The living condition of the beast race people living in the prairie is very harsh. It is very difficult to find food or grow crops. As a result, sub-races of beast-men have to rely on rearing.

From her look, it was clear that Amber was planning on helping her fox race people. As for where her family and people live, Aditya is not sure. For now, the Young dragon decided to not ask his Fox general about her backstory. He decided to wait till she is ready to talk

"Of course, My kingdom is and always will be open for every race. I don't discriminate against people based on their race, color, gender, and sex. As long as the citizen of the Kingdom can obey all the rules and work hard, I will protect them and their rights." There were some Kingdoms on this continent that discriminated against the beast race people. Beast race people were banned from living in those Kingdoms. The people in those kingdoms use beast-men as slaves.

"Thank you, Your Majesty." The small and beautiful smile of relief was hidden by the darkness of the night. Unfortunately, Aditya will never see that smile as he was focused on his own world. The young dragon was trying his best to control himself and not lose control.

Somehow, both Amber and Aditya made it back to the Castle. "Your Majesty, should I take you to your bedroom?" King Aditya felt his bones were going to melt hearing those seducing words. He quickly shook his head and stopped relying on Amber.

"I can return to my bedroom without your help. Thank you for everything." The King quickly run away as he didn't wish to let his future general see his erection.

Knock! Knock!

"Young Master, I have returned to give my report." From Watson's excited tone, it was crystal clear that their gain was huge this time around.

"Come in." Entering the house, the butler noticed that his Majesty was wearing his red Pajamas and reading some books while lying on his bed. These books had information on different attacking moves. After the fight with Conor, Aditya felt that he should read books to expand his knowledge of cultivation and fighting techniques.

"Your Majesty, after counting all the cash, liquid assets, and valuable items that we got from today's raid, we now have 4,918 royal gold coins. That wasn't even the biggest part. Among the items we found, there were also fifteen 2-star weapons of high quality." A single one-star weapon was priced from 25 gold coins to 1 royal cold. While 2-star weapons cost from 10 royal golds to 100 royal gold coins. Fifteen 2-star weapons of high quality meant, that these weapons were worth nearly 1,500 gold coins.

"Watson, don't sell these weapons. You should know that 2-star weapons are very rare. We would have to make a preorder from our neighboring Kingdoms if we want any 2-star or any higher star weapons. First, let our 7 future generals take one weapon of their choice. You can take one 2-star weapon of your choice as well. Then keep the remaining in the treasury for future use. And Also if there is a sword, then leave it for me." Since Watson and his 7 generals were his current main forces, it would be best to give each of them a 2-star weapon which would give them a significant boost in their fighting powers.

"We already have burned all the drug packages, then taken away all the illegal items that were imported without paying taxes. With the help of soldiers, all the bodies were burned outside the city and the place was cleaned leaving no sign of a battle taking place. We still have to torture the gang's leaders. I will do that later, probably tomorrow if I get time. Young Master, while searching the interior of the bar, I found an interesting letter." Watson handed a neatly folded square-shaped piece of paper. Aditya noticed the dark and angry look on his butler's face when he handed the letter.

After opening the letter, Aditya saw the name of the person who appeared in his dream.

[Grandpa Conor, In a week's time the Capital of Istarin Kingdom will go through earth-shaking changes. By then, the Istarin Kingdom should have Ryan as its new ruler. I already have talked with him. He is a clever man with big ambition. He will do anything for his interest. But this is just a small part of that Kingdom's plan. This week, prepare all the money that you and your subordinate have earned. Be prepared to leave this city. Chaos will fall in the Istarin Land.]

[Please be careful, grandpa.]

[From, Amos]

"Your Majesty, what do you think?" Butler Watson asked in a serious tone. This matter was really serious. Just when things were beginning to get better with the Istarin Kingdom, a storm was on its way to crush everything that Aditya was trying to build.

"Watson, you should know what I am clearly thinking." When the young dragon looked at Watson's eyes, the old butler was forced to take a step back. Currently, Aditya's eyes had turned red as the temperature of his body began to rise at a rapid speed. At this point, Aditya wasn't even bothering to hide his killing intent.

There was no way, Aditya was going to let his nightmare become a reality. This was the Kingdom that was given by the old man Ahmed. Ahmed entrusted him with his Kingdom when everyone in this world shunned him. The debt that this young dragon owns to the previous King was simply huge. Although he has failed to do this duty for 3 years, this Aditya whose real name was Isaac wasn't going to let someone take or harm his Kingdom.

'This is where I spent years of my life. I call this city my home. When my biological proud parents threw me out just because I couldn't awaken my bloodline, this city King welcomed me and made me feel like I was home. This Kingdom will not perish, will not sink under the water, as long as I am alive.' Unknowingly Aditya had tightly clenched his fists in anger.

"Young master, I think you should calm yourself. We can talk over this matter tomorrow." The old butler wanted his king to calm down first. Nothing will go right if Aditya lets his anger control his decision.

"There is no need, Watson. Tomorrow, I will use that artifact." The old butler was relieved to know that his master was able to think and not get blinded by anger. Not everyone had the power to do this.

"Good night, young Master." Butler Watson left knowing that Aditya won't go to sleep this soon.

Scene change___

"Miss, I am but you're not allowed to enter." In the middle of the night, a woman walked wearing a black cloak while covering her face with a hood. The woman was stopped from entering the inn. The woman looked at the two guards who were not going to let anyone enter.

"I wonder if showing this would give an entry pass." The woman spoke in a playful tone while showing a golden color coin that had the symbol of a sword drawn on it, it was the royal seal of the Seeker of Impurity guild.

"Milady, you can enter now." The guards dared not to offend a person with the royal seal of the Seeker of Impurity guild. Only a certain handful of individuals in this world had this seal. Whoever had this seal was anything but ordinary.

Knock! Knock!

"You don't really have to knock for entering." It was the voice of the guild leader, whom Aditya met today.

The woman in the black cloak walked in while removing the hood. As the hood fell down, her long purple hair come into the view. The woman proceeded to sit on the couch. "Never did I think, that the Goddess of Wealth would pay a visit to her husband in secret?"

"I went to meet him as the leader of Seeker of Impurity."

Julia knew what the goddess of Wealth said is half true and half false. "So what do you think?"

"Think of what?"

"Don't play dumb. I am asking about him. What's your first impression?"

"He is way different than those rumors. I don't know what caused this change in him but this change might be the best thing for all of us. Above anything, I have to praise him for his extraordinary knowledge of finance."

"I also heard all the things that he did in two days. I have to say that I am very impressed." The goddess of Wealth and the Goddess of Alchemy had met each other in the past a few times. Both girls were friends.

"Does that mean you like him?" Julia asked in a teasing tone.

"Don't be stupid. There is a big difference between being impressed and liking someone." Julia just shrugged her shoulders and didn't go with the topic.

"What about you? You have secretly stayed by his life for 2 years now? What impression do you have of him?" The goddess of Wealth looked at Julia's eyes to see.

"Everything was the same until 3 days ago. On that day, while I and Watson were having dinner, he came to eat with us. This was the first time we had food together. While talking we learned that he has managed to awaken his bloodline. From that day, Aditya was a completely different person."

"Wait a minute, he really awakened his bloodline? When I met him, I did sense dense mana comparable to second-order in his body. I mistakenly assumed that he had found some way of cultivating with your help."

Julia chuckled seeing the guild leader's shocked expression. "Trust me, I had the same reaction when I learned about his bloodline."

"So what's his bloodline name?"

"Inferno Blaze Dragon Bloodline." Just 4 words were enough to give the goddess of wealth another shock. But after a moment the guild leader calmed down.

"What's with that look?" Julia asked.

"I don't think he knows about the incoming darkness that will sink this Kingdom. After years of being weakened, the Kingdom's power has fallen low. The neighboring Kingdoms are keeping their eyes on Aditya and waiting for the moment to strike. I don't think Aditya can withstand the invasion without an army."

"So the reason why you wanted to set your branch in this Kingdom.....?"

"Yes, Although I can't directly help Aditya as no one knows that I am the Goddess of Wealth, without exposing my identity I can buy him some time. But that won't be longer than a few weeks at most."

Deep down, Julia felt a little sad. She tried her best to not show it on her face. But she didn't wish for the Kingdom to sink under the water, right when it was about to enter his golden period. She and Watson have seen the countless hours Aditya spends planning the future of his Kingdom. "I see. By the way, did you really meet the Goddess of War?"

"I did. She is currently in a war with another Kingdom. Meaning for the next few months, it will be impossible to contact her."
