Dragon Monarch System

Chapter 262 - Shadow Guardian [I]

”What are you going to do with these islands? Are you going to return it to the Storm Isle dynasty?”

”Yes.”

”By the way, recently I have been getting some news that someone has built a holy ground for the dragons. Do you know anything about it?” Laura was very interested in the Dragon Palace. If possible she would like to see the Dragon Palace with her very own eyes. But right this was simply wasnʼt possible.

”I have created the Dragon palace. The Dragon Palace is the most important and most guarded place of the Istarin Empire. But if Miss Laura wants, I can bring you with me and give you a tour.” Laura shook her head with a smile.

”I am afraid I canʼt accompany your majesty. Maybe some other day.”

”How is everything at the Deep Sea Palace?” Aditya knew by now the Deep Sea Palace must be preparing to host the competition which would determine who will become their next Ruler. All the participants were training very hard.

”Nothing much. These past few months I have been trying to increase my political power. Most of the time I was cultivating in my house. But if anything major or very serious had happened, my people would have let me know about it.”

”Thatʼs good to know.”

”By the way, does the Deep Sea Palace has mana stone mines?” Aditya couldnʼt help curious if the Deep Sea Palace had Mana stone mines.

”Does your Majesty has an interest in our Empireʼs mana stone mines?” Laura has heard of the things that the Istarin Empire has been doing. She didnʼt Aditya to expand his Empire within the Southern region.

”I am just curious.”

”As of now, all of our Mana stone supplies are fulfilled by 9 Mana stone Mines. But according to a recent study, the Northern part of the Deep Sea Palace should have 5 or 7 more Mana stone mines.”

While Aditya and Laura were talking about small things, Watson from the distance noticed both of them. Seeing his Majesty with another woman who is equally if not more beautiful than Julia and others, made Watson wonder if his Majestyʼs Dragon bloodline had some secret power to attract beautiful women toward him. Of course, these were just Watsonʼs personal thoughts. He would never share his thought with anyone.

ʼBut if his Majesty were to marry her as well, the possibility of his Majesty having an heir in the future would further increase.ʼ Watson secretly thought while approaching Aditya and Laura.

After learning how difficult it was for a Divine Crimson Storm Dragon to have an heir, Watson has been slightly worried about the future. It has been his dream to become the personal butler of his Majestyʼs heir. He felt the chances of Aditya having an heir would drastically increase if Aditya has multiple wives.

”Watson, come here. Let me introduce you to Laura. Laura this is Watson. Watson is my personal butler and also head of all the servants in the Dragon palace.” Watson widened his eyes hearing the name of this woman. He didnʼt Laura to be this beautiful.

”Watson, you should already who she is.” Watson nodded his head. Last time, Aditya informed Watson about Laura when he returned to the castle.

”Itʼs nice to meet you, Watson.”

”Likewise, Lady Laura.” Watson greeted her with a polite bow. He placed his right palm on his chest while slightly lowering his chest.

”Your Majesty, the whole Lost pearl city is under control. Everything has been cleaned. And All the Aether Dragon properties have been seized.”

”Good. Write a letter informing the Empress to send her troops to take over this city. Once the Storm Isle Dynastyʼs troops come and take over, the Istarin Empire will leave the Lost Pearl city.” Since Aditya was going to return this city to the Empress in the end, he didnʼt see any reason to place his troops here to maintain order. This should be the job of the Empress.

The only reason Aditya bought his troops here is that they were responsible for the chaos that happened in the city. Now that the troops have cleaned everything and had managed to calm down everyone and also maintain order, their job was finished. Once the Storm Isle Dynastyʼs soldiers come here, the Istarin troops will return back to the Capital city.

”As you wish.”

Around 20 minutes later, an army of 3,000 troops led by one of the strongest commanders of the Storm Isle dynasty who was a Beginner 4th-order cultivator, came to the Lost Pearl city. The commander personally expressed gratitude on behalf of the Empress and the citizens of the Storm Isle Dynasty.

Aditya knew the only reason the commander was thanking him is that they understood that Aditya had no intention of taking over the Autumnming islands. He proved this by returning control of the Lost pearl city and Crystal Holm island.

”Alright, everyone, itʼs time to return.” Saying that Aditya looked in a certain direction. He could still sense the Aura of the Aether Dragon Leader. It seems the leader was still being tortured by Leo.

”Watson you return with everyone. I will check on Leo and bring him with me.” Watson nodded. A few seconds later, he and one thousand troops left the Lost Pearl city.

”Your Majesty, I will also take my leave. I think I have seen enough. Until next time.” Aditya nodded. He didnʼt stop Laura from leaving. Their relationship didnʼt go beyond an alliance with benefits. Both of them needed each other for their benefit.

ʼBut that was a few months ago. Now my Empire has grown significantly stronger. I am confident that I can deal with the Deep Sea Palace empire and defeat them. But it wouldnʼt hurt to have a strong and wise ally like Laura by my side.ʼ Laura was a mature and wise person. This kind of person was very rare to find. Having her as an ally would only bring him benefits.

Besides, the Istarin Empire has been conquering and expanding very rapidly. It would be nice to have a few powerful allies if in case something happened that is out of Adityaʼs prediction.

Scene change_____

A normal man wearing a black outfit walked inside the Seekers of Impurity guild. Walking inside the guild, the man met the female receptionist.

”How sir, how can I help you?” The female receptionist asked with a professional smile on her face.

”I want to meet the guild master.” Saying that the man showed a golden coin that had the symbol of a Dragon on it. Seeing this the female receptionistʼs attitude towards the man became more respectful.

”Please come with me.” Before leaving with the female receptionist, the man turned around to see if anyone was observing him. All he saw were adventurers talking among themselves. Everyone inside the guild building was busy with their own work. No one paid any attention to him.

In the left corner, some adventurers were drinking milk wine. Some Adventurer parties were checking out the missions. While the other adventurers were mostly talking among themselves or talking with the other receptionists.

Any adventurer high-ranking adventurer can meet the guild master. It wasnʼt such a big deal to meet the guild master. This is why no one thought of much when the female receptionist personally led one of the adventurers to meet the guild master.

Beyond the wooden stairs, the guild master worked in the first room. There were several other rooms which are used by other guild employees. But compared to other rooms, the room where the guild master worked was 3 times bigger and more luxurious.

While walking towards the guild masterʼs room, the female receptionist greeted a few others who were her colleagues and friends.

Knock! Knock!

”What is it?” A female voice was heard coming from the guild master room.

”Guild master, someone wants to meet you from the Istarin empire.”

”Let him in.”

Click!

The female receptionist watched the man enter the room. When the door was closed, she didnʼt wait anymore. She went back to the 1st floor to continue working.

Meanwhile, the man took out a letter from his storage. Without saying any words, he approached the guild master who was looking at his face. It seems the guild master was very interested in him. But the man didnʼt care. His expression remained neutral. There were no emotions on his face.

He silently put the letter on the table in front of the guild master and then turned around to leave. The guild master took the letter and then watched the man who walked out of the room. This whole time, neither of them exchanged any words. This was not the first time the man had given letters to the guild master. And this was not the first time the guild master had seen this man.

After the man walked out, the guild master looked at the letter and thought out loud. ”It looks like another letter will be delivered to the Istarin Empire.” Around a few months ago, the guild leader summoned all of them for a meeting. In that meeting, Alicia asked the guild masters to deliver letters that would be given to them by the secret spies of the Istarin Empire.

Within a few minutes, the letter reached the Istarin Empireʼs capital. The letter was sent to the Azure city using the teleportation array. After receiving the letter, the guild master who was in charge of the Seekers of Impurity branch guild ordered one of the most trusted members of the guild to deliver the letter to one of the Dragonians.

From the Dragonians, the letter reached the hands of the Leader of the Shadow guardians. The captain of the 3rd division, the leader of all the assassins and spies of the Istarin Empire, was in the hands of Nathan Owen.

Opening the letter, Nathan began to read the letter which was written in their special coded language. The more Nathan read, the more his expression changed. In the end, the coldness in the Shadow guardianʼs eyes had reached a level new. Holding a vast amount of rage and anger in his heart, Nathan silently went to the Dragon Palace.
