Dragon Monarch System

"Just before we call it a day, there's one last item on our agenda," Aditya announced, handing a stack of papers to his Prime Minister Spencer who was standing right behind his chair.

"A final topic to discuss? What is it?" Aidan questioned, showing interest.

"We need to come up with a new name for our alliance," Aditya revealed, a broad smile spreading across his face.

"I'm all ears for any ideas. Does anyone have any suggestions for a good name?" He asked as his gaze drifted around the room, making eye contact with each leader.

Everyone thought for a few seconds before Aidan suggested something. "Why don't we call ourselves the Dying Isle Continent Faction?" Aditya blankly stared at Adian while Spencer explained on his behalf.

"Your Majesty, I don't think this would be a good name. Calling ourselves the Dying Isle Continent Faction wouldn't make sense especially when our Alliance is only made up of 6 members. Even outside of our Alliance, there are still many other Kingdoms and Empires. And also, the name itself is too big and too boring." Aditya nodded his head in agreement.

"Sorry, I am bad at naming things." Aidan smiled before giving a side look to Laura but to his disappointment, Laura was writing something on a paper and wasn't focusing on the conversation.

"How about we go with The Cosmic Tide Alliance?" Suddenly Laura made this suggestion. No one rejected her suggestion. After thinking for a moment, everyone felt that this would be a suitable name for their Alliance.

"I agree. Does anyone have any objections?" Everyone shook their heads.

"Since we have reached an agreement. This concludes our meeting. Thank you for taking the time to attend this meeting on such short notice."

As the Alliance meeting ended, Aidan tried to invite Laura to have dinner with him again but she refused saying that she had made plans with her boyfriend. This time she had to lie as she knew that unless she didn't lie, Aidan wouldn't give up and would continue to trouble her. Laura found this to be very troublesome so she just lied. End of story!

And so following the alliance meeting, the newest members of the Alliance were made public along with the changes to the Alliance's name as well. The news was quickly spread by using the Seekers of Impurity Guild. In each branch office of the guild around the whole Continent, the news was put next to the guild mission board for the public to see.

Due to the large number of people who regularly came to the guild, the news quickly became a hot topic. By the end of the day, the news had managed to reach the ears of other Kingdoms and Empires around the Dying Isle Continent and to the ears of foreign Kingdoms outside of the Continent.

There were some who were dissatisfied once they heard of the announcement. It was almost considered taboo for an Oceanic Empire to form an alliance with a Land Empire. And not to mention the Deep Sea Palace Empire had joined a Land-based Alliance.

Many extremists were very dissatisfied with this but what can they do about it? Fight the Istarin Empire? Or Fight The Cosmic Tide Alliance? Both options would lead to their utter destruction.

By now, around the Six Continents, the mighty strength of the Istarin Empire was well known. The Empire is called the Graveyard of Empires for a reason. And if they foolishly attacked the Empire through direct or indirect means, then the Dragon Emperor himself was going to come after them.

The Dragon Emperor was a calamity that everyone wanted to avoid at all costs. He was a calamity that would destroy anything in his path.

If an Empire or Kingdom messed with the Istarin Empire, their Empire would be conquered by Aditya within a single night. No one in the six continents had the resources or the powers to conquer a 5th-tier Empire within a single Night. And in the end, their Empire would be annexed by the Istarin Empire. By now everyone had seen this story repeating over and over again.

And the worst thing was the population was more than happy to be annexed by the Istarin Empire especially knowing that under King Aditya's rule, their lives were going to be changing. They would get better opportunities and more freedom. They would be protected and guaranteed food and shelter. This meant the population wouldn't come to the streets to protest.

Aditya was cruel and also calculative. He perfectly knew when he needed to be kind and when he needed to be cruel to protect his interest and for the overall greater good.

The news of the Dragon Monarch fighting a Peak 6th-order cultivator had reached the ears of all big Empires within the Six Continents. Aditya suppressed the news till the Mana density of the Southern region returned to normal. But once things returned to normal, everyone heard of the news.

If Aditya himself is capable of fighting Peak's 6th-order cultivator despite being 4th-order, then the Istarin Empire can no longer be considered a 5th-tier Nation. Under his rule, the Empire had become a 6th-tier Empire. Only Nations in the Main continent had managed to reach the 6th-tier or 7th-tier.

The current Istarin Empire had become such a powerful force that once the news of this Alliance reached the ears of the Deep Sea Palace Empire's neighbors who were recently preparing to invade the Empire had to cancel their plans. No one wanted to provoke the Calamity.

Next morning,

"I had a lot of fun staying here. Thank you for having me." Laura slightly bowed her head to Aditya to express her gratitude.

"Why are you bowing your head to me? I thought we were friends. And also if it is anyone who should be apologizing is me. I hope you will forgive me for any inconvenience."

"Of course not. Everything was perfect. Everyone has been really kind to me. I enjoyed my stay here." Laura replied.

"Then, if you don't want you can come here to stay with us anytime you want. We will always welcome you with open arms." Laura has stayed with them for about 3 days. In these 3 days, she had close really close to the entire Family. She not only got to know a different side of Aditya but also met new amazing people around Aditya and experienced many different things. This trip will be unforgettable for her.

"Thank you, Your Majesty." Laura was sure that she was going to come to stay here again. Aside from Aditya, she has made some other friends as well.

She then turned to Alicia, Julia, Riya, and other girls who were standing behind Aditya. They already had said their goodbyes. Laura just nodded their head to them before the teleportation array's rune circles started glowing.

"Farewell Aditya." Just as the rune circles of the array glowed completely, Laura looked at Aditya with a gentle smile on her face. Her eyes held warmth and love for him. Aditya felt that those eyes of hers were the reflection of her heart and her emotions.

Swoosh!!!!

Laura and her personal maid Kete had disappeared. Both of them had returned to the Deep Sea Palace.

Once Laura left, Aditya felt confused. 'Her eyes...'

Sigh!

Aditya closed his eyes and took a deep breath.

The day Laura left, Julia and Lara felt that the Dragon Palace had become slightly lonely due to Laura's absence. Even though she stayed with them for only about 3 days, her presence had made things brighter and even more joyful around the Palace.

Scene change______

"So when are you going to return?" Asked Alicia. Ever since Aditya took her first time, Alicia has become much more mature and more beautiful looking. Her personality has also changed.

Although she was kind of embarrassed to admit it she was going to miss him a lot. She had grown fond of sleeping with Aditya. Their nightlife was really healthy and satisfying. She was going to miss him a lot. Deep down, she wished for him to return soon.

"I am not sure. Depending on the circumstances, the amount of time I stay there could change from 2 weeks." Aditya had planned to stay there for at least 2 weeks. This is why he has been working extra hours for the last two weeks.

"Husband...." Lara looked at Aditya.

Aditya patted Lara's head. She just smiled and closed her eyes accepting her husband's affection.

"I have left enough of my blood for you. If anything happens then don't forget to contact me. I will immediately rush back home." Lara nodded her head with a smile.

Seeing her smile, Aditya couldn't help but pull her into his embrace. 'My wife is really cute.' Aditya then kissed both of her cheeks and then her lips which Lara accepted even though she felt shy as other girls were watching.

Aditya knew that he couldn't give all of his attention to Lara. So he went ahead and did the same with Alicia, Julia, and Sasha.

Aditya feared that Lilith might do something mischievous in this situation and Sylvie would accompany her but nothing like that happened much to his relief.

"Spencer, if there is an emergency, you know what to do right?" Spencer nodded his head.

Aditya took Riya's hand while looking at her with a smile. "Shall we?" Riya nodded his head.

Both of them stepped onto the teleportation array. The next second both of them disappeared from everyone's view.

Although Julia wouldn't say it to anyone every time she parted with Aditya, she felt sad and lonely. Even now, she felt sad and lonely.

"I am going to my laboratory." She was going to continue her research to find a cure for Lara.

"Lara is going to the library. Grandpa Watson, if anyone looks for Lara, please tell them Lara is at the library." Watson nodded his head and watched as Lara left the living room. For part of the day, Lara slept due to her mysterious illness. Whenever Aditya wasn't around, she would read books. She found reading books to be really interesting.

Alicia and Sylvie didn't stay any longer. Both best friends left together. Alicia and Sylvie were returned to the Ethereal Empire for a few days. She was going to stay with her parents for some days. She missed them a lot.

"Mother, where are you going?" Sasha asked her mother.

"I am going to sleep." Lilith replied without looking back.

Sasha didn't stop her mother. She used the teleportation array to head to her organization. In recent months, the organization has been slowly decreasing its operations around the Istarin Empire. It was impossible to completely stop taking bounties of the citizens of the Istarin Empire at once.

At the same time, she was slowly getting rid of the ones who were not loyal to her and rather loyal to money. Once those were eliminated or removed from the organization, the whole organization was going to discontinue its operations in the Dying Isle Continent altogether. Sasha had grown tired of this life of hers.

"We completely forgot about Aditya's birthday, didn't we?" Watson suddenly remembered about Aditya's birthday party which was postponed due to the Church.

"I guess we did. We were so busy that the matter was completely forgotten from our minds." Spencer replied with a bitter smile. Both of them had made surprise plans for his birthday party but all of their planning was for nothing.

"Maybe later we can." Spencer and Watson looked at each other before both of them went to their separate ways. Spencer was going to spend some time with his girlfriend and soon to be his wife Aria while Watson was going to return home to see his twin brother.

Really Thank you very much to all those who send support with valuable golden tickets. I hope we can keep it up!!!
