“So What did Alicia talk about with you?”
“She told me that in return for giving me the heart of Peak 6th-order Lightning Forest deer, she wanted me to prevent as her boyfriend and go to meet her parents.” Aditya did not hide the truth from Julia. After all, no matter how beautiful or how wealthy Alicia was, Julia always was his first priority.
Knowing that hiding the truth from her would only create unnecessary drama, it was better to tell her the truth from the beginning. Aditya does not want to lose Julia. He had to protect what he had found at any cost. He wanted to be completely honest with her.
As expected, the alchemy goddess frowned hearing the Dragon King’s words. She coldly looked at Aditya for a minute before asking. “Why does she wants you to come to see her parents?”
After meeting Alicia several times, it was clear that the goddess of wealth did not have any thoughts of Aditya. She did not even consider Aditya as her fiance.
“The thing is…..” Without hiding anything Aditya fully explained everything to her.
Contrary to what Aditya expected, Julia did not lose her calm or anything. She continued to eat calmly making the Dragon King confused. “Julia are you mad?”
“Hmph! I am not mad.” Julia snorted and sighed secretly. Given how gloriously Aditya was shining, it won’t be long before some other vixen comes to seduce him and try to become his wife. In this world, it was normal for King, dukes, and nobles to have multiple wives and concubines. Julia was prepared to share Aditya. Even if she tried, due to the contract, she won’t able to stop him from having multiple wives.
Even though she hates to admit it, sooner or later, her man was going to become the strongest King on the whole continent given how fast he was progressing. When that happens Julia can never keep Aditya from having multiple wives.
“Listen, Aditya, I will say this once.” This was the first time he had seen Julia this serious.
“Yes?”
“You have 7 wives due to the marriage contract. Aside from 7 wives, I will not allow you to have any relationship with other women.”
Seeing her serious face, Aditya unexpectedly laughed out loud. “Hahaha!”
“Why are you laughing?”
“Haha! Silly, do you really think I would have 7 wives?” Aditya’s words only further made her confused.
“I am more than satisfied with what I have found. I admit that I currently have 7 wives in my name due to the contract. But as long as I managed to reach a certain height in the future, I am confident that I can break the contract. I will never force those girls to marry me.”
“If you’re thinking that I am going to marry another kingdom’s princess or take the princess as my concubine to have more political connections with other Kingdoms, then you’re wrong. I would never do that. I only have eyes for my woman.” Saying those words, the alchemy goddess blushed. She lowered her head to hide the smile that blossomed on her face. Aditya could see her ears and even her neck was getting red.
After about 5 minutes of silence, Julia finally calmed down and raised her head to look at Aditya. “By the way, now that we’re talking about our future, I think we should discuss how many children we’re going to have in the future.”
“Shameless! You’re truly a pervert.” Julia continued eating her steak.
Aditya innocently looked at Julia. “What’s wrong with discussing my future with my wife?”
“Hmph! I never agreed to become your wife.”
Sigh!

Next day,
“Your Majesty, why do you have new bit marks on your face?” Watson noticed the soldiers were trying their best to suppress their laughter seeing their King like that.
Sigh!
“….A certain dog barged into my room last time and kept biting me. I tried to fight back but the dog was simply too strong for me.”
Watson glanced at Julia who was behind Aditya. Seeing her butler’s gaze, she blushed and snorted. “Watson come with me.”
Aditya bought Watson and Julia inside the royal carriage. “Majesty, do you have any orders for me?”
“Today, we’re going to head out. I don’t know for how many days I will be gone. Do not let anyone know about my absence. If they ask where I am, just say that I have gone behind closed doors to cultivate.” There is a slim chance that the neighboring Kingdoms might try to attack once they learn Aditya has left the Kingdom.
“Understood Majesty.”
“I already have ordered Scott, Amber, and others to listen to your orders. While I am gone, you will be in charge. Please take care of everything. If things start getting out of your hand, then send me a message, I will return as soon as possible.”
His 7 generals and Watson were his most trusted people. Recently, Scott, Tyler, Nathan, and Henry all had broken through 2nd-order with the pills. While others were close to reaching 2nd-order. With the pills made by Julia, in a few months, they should reach mid or peak 2nd-order.
“Your Highness, what should I do about King Ethan and the Nepoca Kingdom?”
“For now we will remain quiet. If he does anything suspicious, let me know about it immediately.”
“Understood.”
“Watson I have something for you.” Aditya bit his index finger and then put a drop of his blood on Watson’s forehead.
“Your Majesty, what is this?” Instead of being red, the color of the blood was golden which surprised both Watson and Julia. The golden drop of blood on his forehead shined brightly.
“Do not resist it. Just accept it.” Watson stopped resisting causing the golden blood to be absorbed.
A Crimson red light enveloped Watson. Under Julia and Aditya’s shocked gaze, Watson’s cultivation started rising from Mid 2nd-order to Peak 2nd-order and then all the way to Beginner 3rd-order.
Boom!
The strong Aura of beginner 3rd-order was released. The Aura was so strong that Julia almost fell to her knees if Aditya had not protected her. The aura of the 3rd-order caused all the soldiers who were waiting outside to fall to their knees. The soldiers felt suffocated. Their chest felt heavy and they were having trouble breathing.
“Watson, calm down.” Aditya’s words worked like a charm. The Crimson Aura around him disappeared.
“My King, this servant apologizes for his rudeness.” Watson quickly got on one knee and kneeled before Aditya while lowering his head.
Aditya and Julia both felt the voice of Watson has slightly changed. It was not just his voice, Watson now looked 15 years younger. before he looked like an old grandpa, but now even though his hair still remained white, he looked like he was only 50 years old. The wrinkles on his skin had disappeared. Only a few wrinkles on his face remained.
If someone looked carefully they would be able to see the small light red dragon scales growing on Watson’s arms and around his neck, collar bone, and throat.
“I can sense the Aura of a Dragon coming from Watson. What exactly did you do?” Watson also looked at Aditya for an answer.
“How much do we exactly know about the heavenly dragon bloodline?” Julia and Watson shared a look of confusion. “As the heavenly dragon, I have the power to turn humans into Dragonians. Watson, you’re no longer a human but rather a Dragonian of Heavenly Crimson Dragon.”
“Tell me the changes you feel in your body?”
“I can feel that my powers have been multiplied by 100 times. My cultivation has reached beginner 3rd-order which kind of feels unreal as my cultivation talent is not that high and even after hundred years of cultivating I still was stuck a mid-phase of 2nd order.”
“Exactly. You currently have more strength, agility, stamina, health, and mana than an average beginner 3rd-order. Becoming a dragonian also has increased your cultivation speed, healing speed, and recovery speed, by a huge margin.”
Hearing Aditya’s words both Julia and Watson were left shocked. The fact Watson managed to jump from Mid phase of 2nd-order directly to beginner 3rd-order shocked them the most. “Your Majesty, in that case, can you also turn our soldiers into dragonians?” Just imagine how powerful the Istarin Kingdom would become once all of their troops turn into dragonians.
“That’s now how things work. I had to give you a drop of essence. Currently, the amount of essence that my body can produce is limited to only 25.” Aditya took out a golden bottle that was filled with golden blood.
“Take this.”
“Give one drop of my golden blood to Nathan, Eleanor, Tyler, and Henry. As they are human, they will be able to become Dragonians. As for the other 20 golden drops, select the most loyal human soldiers in the army and let them become dragonians.” Watson seriously nodded his head while putting the glass bottle in his storage ring.
“Give special privileges to all the dragonian soldiers. Those 20 dragonians will stay at the castle and train using the pills that Julia made. The dragonians will be the secret weapon of the Istarin King.”
“Remember Watson, other than my 7 generals and the future dragonians no one should know about this.”
“Even if I am killed, I will never reveal this secret to anybody. I will also make sure that the future 20 dragonians also keep their mouth shut.” Whoever has become a dragonian won’t be able to betray Aditya. The thought of going against him will never cross their minds. This is why Aditya wanted to secretly cultivate this special force.
“Alright, we shall take our leave now.” Julia and Aditya put two pills in their mouth. Under Watson’s surprised gaze, both of their hair colors started changing to white and blue.
“Since we’re going to leave the Kingdom ins disguise there is no need to bring any soldier with us. I will leave everything in your hand.”
“My King, I swear I won’t disappoint you.”
Two pairs of red wings appeared on his face.
“Ready princess.” Julia shyly nodded her head. The next moment Aditya and Julia disappeared from the carriage. If one looks at the sky then one would see a man with wings carrying a woman in his arms and going above the clouds.
