124 Chapter 124

"Young Master, please don't do that. We're here to complete our mission. I think it would be bad to expose our identity. Our whole plan could end up failing."

"So what?"

"I am well aware of the current military strength of the Istarin Kingdom. We can crush this Kingdom within a few days."

A few minutes later,

Following both Aditya and Watson came to the living room. Seeing them both the head of the Deep Sea merchant group and the butler who stood behind the couch all turned their attention to Watson and Aditya.

Richard and Gorge, both paid special attention to the young man with long blue hair. The young man followed Watson and sat down sat next to him.

Seeing the handsome-looking young man sitting next to Watson, Gorge and Richard both exchanged a look of surprise. Both obviously had no idea who this young man was. If only they had known that this young man is the king of the Istarin Kingdom.

Meanwhile, after sitting down, the dragon monarch began observing their guests. The man who sat on the couch had a slightly ugly and fat-looking face. The man had short blond hair. He was wearing luxurious clothes and gold chains around his neck. What pissed Aditya about this man was his arrogant and prideful look. Not even the Emperor of Echo Dominion had that arrogance yet a mere merchant was looking at Watson and Aditya like he owned the whole world.

Behind the fat young master, there was 5 feet 11 inches tall man in his 40s. The man had a few wrinkles on his face. The man was wearing a butler outfit.

"Good afternoon, Sir Watson. My name is Gorge and this is my personal butler Richard." Meanwhile, a maid carrying many delicious snacks and tea entered the room. While the maid poured tea for the guests, Watson introduced himself.

"My name is Watson. I am currently the unofficial Prime Minister of the Istarin Kingdom. Sitting beside me is the newly appointed student of mine, his name is Itsuki."

"Sir Watson, I like to keep things simple and straightforward. Why my soldiers were attacked and also detained? We did not do any illegal activities nor did we offend anyone while doing business. I demand that you release my remaining soldiers and pay compensation for the dead soldiers."

Before Watson could reply, Aditya raised his right leg over his left thigh. He then folded his arms on his chest and coldly stared at the head of the Deep Sea Merchant group.

"Sir Gorge, in case you forgot, let me remind you again. The Istarin Law says that no merchant group is allowed to keep more than 5,000 soldiers. Despite sending repetitive warnings, you crossed the limit and went on to keep 10,000 soldiers. When the royal officials went to announce your punishment and penalty, you even humiliated them. I had no choice but to use violence to suppress my personal troops. Around 5,000 troops have been captured while the rest has been killed. Now, what do you have to say in your defense?"

Gorge and Richard both frowned seeing the way Aditya was sitting. When Watson spoke, Aditya did not even blink his eyes. Those cold crimson eyes of the dragon kept on staring at Gorge making him feel scared and unsafe for some reason.

"Sir Watson, you will have to understand that the Deep Sea Merchant group is currently one of the biggest merchant groups in the Istarin Kingdom. Just having 5,000 personal soldiers is not enough." It was Richard, Gorge's butler who replied to Watson's question.

"In that case, why didn't you hire the adventurers? I am sure there were thousands of adventurers who would be more than willing to accept your escort and guarding missions." Watson was still trying to resolve things in a peaceful way. But if Gorge keeps on being stubborn, Watson fears that this might not end well for Gorge and his Deep Sea merchant group.

"That being said. You not only have broken the Istarin Law but also have ignored the warnings and also have insulted one of the royal officials. The Deep Sea merchant group will be fined and will have to penalties for their crime." Watson was about to announce the penalties but Gorge could not hold his anger anymore.

"Bullsh**!" Gorge suddenly kicked the table that was between the two couches.

Bang!

"Who do you think you're?"

Watson frowned as he looked at Gorge. Meanwhile, the coldness in Aditya's eyes only increased. Gorge might not have noticed it but Richard being smart was able to notice this. He put his hand on his master's shoulder and tried to calm him but Gorge did not stop there.

"I ran the Deep Sea, merchant group. Do you think just because the Istarin Kingdom had defeated the Zulux Dynasty, you can do whatever do want? I am warning you. Don't challenge the Deep Sea Merchant group. You won't be able to handle the consequence."

"I order you to release my remaining man and also handsomely compensate for killing other 5,000 troops. Otherwise....."

"Otherwise...What?" Aditya could not sit around and watch this unfold. He stood up and looked directly into Gorge's eyes.

"Th.....t" Gorge began trembling when looking at those crimson eyes that were glowing in blood red color. Gorge felt as if he was staring at the eyes of God of War. Even though Aditya did not release his killing intent yet, Gorge felt paralyzed just by staring at those crimson eyes that seems to have an endless thirst for blood.

"From now on, I, Aditya, as the king of the Istarin Kingdom revoking the right that the Istarin Kingdom had given to the Deep Sea merchant group to trade. Furthermore, all of the Deep Sea merchant group assets will be seized by the Istarin Kingdom." It was then both Richard and Gorge realized their grave mistake. Both realized this whole time, they were in the presence of the Istarin King.

"No, you can't do this to me."

"I am King and I get to do what I want. As punishment for disrespecting the royal official and the unofficial prime minister of the Istarin kingdom, I announce that you and every one who is working for the Deep Sea merchant group will be sentenced to death."

Without not even waiting for Gorge to say anything, Aditya raised his left foot and kicked Gorge's chest which sent him flying to the other side of the living room.

Bang!

Seeing this Richard, Gorge's butler's face turned pale. "Your Majesty, please forgive us. We made a big mistake."

"Too late." Aditya summoned his Crimson flame and burned Richard's whole body to ashes.

"Watson"

"yes, Your Majesty"

"Send out an order to capture all the employees of the Deep Sea merchant group. After capturing them, leaving the innocent ones, others to be killed. Also seize all the assets and property owned by the Deep Sea merchant group." Aditya then walked up to Gorge who now looked at Aditya in fear.

"Istarin King, you will regret doing this. The Eastern Sea Elven won't let you go." However Aditya was not affected by Gorge's words.

Aditya grabbed Gorge by his throat and lifted him in the air. "This Monarch was never afraid of making enemies. I already have hundreds of enemies. Adding one more is not going to change anything." Aditya then applied more pressure in his right arm.

Watson watched the whole scene with a stunned face. He saw how Aditya crushed Gorge's throat and then threw him like he was some garbage.

"Watson, send a investigation party to Gorge's residence." After giving some orders to Watson, Aditya went back to make the teleportation array in the Castle basement.

Somewhere in the eastern region of the Kingdom,

"It has been more than one and half months, yet we still couldn't find the crown of Seven Seas. Did you all stop working or what?"

"Leader, we are 99% percent sure that it was King Aditya who has taken the Crown of Seven seas. He also killed one of our members named Ash."

"The Crown Of Seven seas, a magical artifact that cannot be replicated. It took us hundreds of years that locate the Crown of Seven Seas. When we found its location, why did you send a weak and pathetic member of our organization? Why you didn't send the strongest member of our organization? If you had no made that mistake, by now the Crown would have been in our hands."

"My..My apologizes, Sire."

"I am sorry but in this organization, apologies do not work. I wanted results. Even though you allowed a weak King to take the crown with him, I had ordered you to take back the crown. You guys still failed. Failure is the only thing that you guys are capable of."

"Leader, we have secretly tried sneaking inside the Castle to find the crown but it seems the crown is with King Aditya."

"Then what are you guys waiting for. Don't waste my time. Hurry up and get me the crown of seven seas otherwise, I don't mind killing all of you and feed you to sharks."

"Don't worry, Sire. I have spent the last month making a plan. I am sure my plan will succeeded. Just give me two more weeks time."

"Alright. I will trust you in this for one last time. If you fail, then you better run because I am going to hunt you down to the ends of this world."
