91 Chapter 81

“Young Master let me introduce you. This man is the son of Duke Elliott Campbell. His name is Lucian Campbell.” Instead of replying Watson instead introduced Aditya to the son of Duke Elliott Campbell.

“I thought you would never show you and hide in that little cave of yours.” Aditya stopped 5 meters away from the man named Lucian. He carefully observed Lucian’s appearance for a minute.

Lucian looked like he was about 25 years old even though he was more than [50+] years old. Lucian had light blue hair and beautiful blue eyes that can make any female captivated. He had a gentle appearance. His blue messy hair was covering his forehead and gave him a unique handsome charm.

He was about 1.9 meters, around the same height as Aditya. His body was neither too muscular nor too slim. He had fair skin. He was wearing a White shirt and black pants which was very different from what the nobles normally wore.

His charming face was enough to capture the hearts of millions. Even though his age was over [50+] no one would think that he is 50.

“What does the young master of Campbell house wants?” Since this man showed Aditya no respect, why the hell he would show him any respect? He was not a bootlicker. He did not care if this man was the son of a duke. Even if the prince, the son of the King himself had done this kind of act, Aditya wouldn’t have given any respect to the price either. Aditya was also pissed that Lucian had come to see him at 5 in the morning.

Just like Aditya, Lucian also checked on Aditya’s appearance for a few seconds before replying. “Are you engaged to Lady Julia?”

“If you don’t believe in me, then you can just wait till Julia’s birthday. Any other questions.” Aditya looked really impatient.

“Aditya, I challenge you to a fight. Do you dare to accept?”

“Now that’s interesting.” Aditya’s lips curled up hearing the words of Lucian. The son of Duke Campbell also had a crush on Julia. Now after hearing the rumors of Julia being married, he simply couldn’t wait and ended up coming here to meet Aditya at 5 in the morning.

Aditya found that Lucian’s cultivation was at least 4th-order or maybe even above. ‘The Aura around him is strong as Eddie. Maybe even stronger than Eddie.’ Aditya guess Lucian’s cultivation was at least mid-4th order.

“Now that’s interesting, a mid-4th-order challenging a Mid-2nd-order!”

“Are you afraid?” Aditya instantly saw through his attempt to provoke him and then make him accept his challenge.

“It’s not about if I am afraid or not. It’s about if I can seriously stand against a mid-4th-order.” Though he had managed to defeat a beginner 4th-order, Aditya had not confident about beating a mid-4th-order. Aditya had an advantage with his Crimson Flame. When he fought with Eddie, his Crimson Flame’s high temperature helped him by dealing with general Eddie’s water attacks.

Aditya is not sure if he can achieve the same result if he fought against an earth user or maybe a lightning user.

“I know you defeated general Eddie who is beginner 4th-order a few days ago.” Lucian pointed at the large destroyed part of the castle.

“Why do you even want to fight me so much?” Aditya understood that by defeating him, the son of the duke wanted to prove that he was more worthy of Julia and all that nonsense. But Adam, Sophie, and Julia clearly weren’t the type of people who would care about worthiness. Aditya knew that after spending time with them.

“If I win, I want something from you. If you win, you can ask for anything.” Aditya narrowed his eyes as his eyes flashed with killing intent. He can clearly see what Lucian was trying to do here.

“Can I know what thing you want from me?” Lucian failed to notice the killing intent in Aditya’s eyes.

He proudly raised his chest and looked at his Crimson eyes. “If I win, you will hand over Julia to me. You will immediately break off the engagement and leave the house of Onard.” Hearing those words, Aditya’s heart was like a volcano that was about to erupt. Without even realizing it, his body temperature started rising rapidly. His Crimson eyes started glowing even in red light.

Walter who was standing beside Lucian saw the changes in Aditya. Even from the 5 meters distance, he could feel the temperature around Aditya rising. Before Aditya could release his killing intent, Walter appeared behind Aditya and put his right hand on his shoulder.

“Young Master, this is not the place to get angry.” Walter whispered in his ear. If Lucian wasn’t the son of Duke, then Walter personally would be butchered him. Even he was angry with Lucians’ words.

Aditya got some control over his emotions thanks to Walter’s words. After taking a deep breath, he coldly stared at Lucian and said in a deep tone. “Listen to me you piece of shit, first of all, Julia is not an object that I will hand over to anyone. If you want a fight, I will fight you. Don’t think that you can use this fight to make me break this engagement.”

Lucian’s face changed when he was called a piece of shit. He someone held his anger as he knew getting angry here would only create unnecessary trouble. He also realized that he had hit Aditya’s sensitive nerve. “Alright, let’s change the price. You put 10 million royal gold coins. I put in 10 million royal gold coins. The winner of this fight gets to take it all.”

“Alright, I accept your challenge.”

“The fight will take place on Lady Julia’s birthday.” Saying that Lucian stepped into the royal carriage and left.

After Lucian left, Aditya finally calmed down.

Walter couldn’t help but ask. “Young Master, why did you accept the fight? Lucian is even stronger than general Eddie.”

“Why should I refuse free 10 million royal gold coins?” Aditya smiled as asked back. he still had 12 days left. And 12 days would give him more than enough time to prepare for this fight.

Hearing Aditya’s answer Walter was stunned. He was going to face a mid-4th-order, yet this man was so calm and spoke like he already had won the fight. Walter couldn’t understand from where this confidence came from.

‘Unless young Master is planning on using his dragon transformation.’ Thinking about Aditya transforming into a dragon made the old butler Walter very excited. He was curious and also excited to see Aditya in his dragon form.

“Let’s go back” While walking inside he looked at the sky. There were dark clouds hovering around in the sky. It looked like it was going to rain soon.

Meanwhile, a large amount of mana was gathering 20 km away from Apogale city. The mana in the atmosphere was being sucked toward the outside of Apogale city. No one had any idea what was going to happen.

At the dining table

“Why did you agree to fight Lucian?” Julia angrily asked.

“Well, I couldn’t say no to free 10 million royal gold coins.” Aditya simply smiled and continued eating without being bothered.

“Mom…..?” Julia looked at her mother for some help. Even though she might act like she does not care about Aditya, deep down she was really worried about him.

“Julia calm down. I think Aditya did the right thing.” Julia looked at her father.

Adam also looked very calm. Seeing how strong Aditya was, he did not see a reason to be worried. “All the nobles in the kingdom will attend Julia’s upcoming birthday. Many are dissatisfied with Aditya. Even though no one would dare to say it in front of me. I think this fight would allow Aditya to display his powers in front of the nobles.”

“Big brother will definitely win.” Aditya smiled while patting Julia’s little brother’s head.

“See even Zak believes that I will win.” Julia rolled her eyes. Fighting a beginner 4th order and fighting a mid-4th-order are completely different.

“You worry too much. Even if I lose, I won’t go down without seriously injuring him.”

“Hmph! Who said I was worried about you?” Julia snorted and pretended to not be worried.

“Hehe! Big sister is being a tsundere again.” Julia glared at Zak and then continued eating. Meanwhile, Aditya and Zak looked at each other and smiled.

After eating breakfast,

“Boy wait a minute.” Under everyone’s confused gaze, Adam took out a black sword from his storage ring.

“Here take this.” Aditya took the black sword from Adam. When he took the sword in his right hand, he instantly felt like he was being forced to carry an entire mountain in his right hand. The black sword fell to the ground as Aditya couldn’t keep holding this sword.

“This is a Mid-5-star black sword. I was planning on giving you this sword on Julia’s birthday as an engagement gift. This black sword weighs almost 3 tons. The sword was forged for me but I choose a greatsword as my main weapon so the sword was left unused. From now on, this sword is yours.” After saying those words Adam left. Meanwhile, Aditya was still shocked. To think Adam would gift him a mid 5th-order black sword.
