"Your Majesty, this is bad news. More than hundreds of wild dragons and Wyverns are attacking the Nyland Kingdom from the east. The attack is personally being led by King Aditya."
"What?" Arthur weakly sat down on the throne. It was the glorious throne that his father and the past rulers of the Nyland Kingdom sat down on. But to him, this throne no longer looked glorious. It was as if when he wore the crown, the throne had lost the majestic glory that it once had.
With the death of his father, everything went in the wrong direction. The only thing that King Arthur can do is run for his life.
After returning to the Istarin Kingdom, Aditya did not even bother to heal himself. He gathered all the Wild Dragons and the wyverns who had submitted to him. Without any hesitation, Aditya attacked the Nyland Kingdom.
For the next 7 days, Aditya did not stop. He alone was a force that could kill millions. He has grown powerful to the point that nothing in the Nyland Kingdom was able to stop him. Even when the ancestor who was a 4th-order cultivator tried to defeat Aditya, nothing worked against him.
Aditya killed the guardian of the Nyland Kingdom and soon one by one all of the major cities and the territories of the Nyland Kingdom began falling.
Aditya did not even ask the soldiers if they wanted to surrender or not. The thought of taking war prisoners did not exist in his dictionary. Whether it was men or women, those who blocked his path were slaughtered.
The blood of the soldiers was painted on the city walls. Dead bodies of the soldiers were lying around; rooting away. The smell of blood had covered cities. Fresh blood changed the color of the ground rea.
Aditya did not hurry at all. He took his time. Of course, he did not kill or even touched the people that lived inside the city. This was the fight between the Nyland Kingdom and the Istarin Kingdom, the normal people shouldn't be killed.

"Your Majesty, all the cities except for the capital have fallen. By now, we have lost hundreds of 3rd-order cultivators, one 4th-order, and almost half a million soldiers. Some of the remaining soldiers even fled in fear of King Aditya. What should we do now?" Ask the prime minister whose name was John.
"What do you think we should do? Dance?" In these 7 days, King Arthur did not even get a wink of sleep. All this time he was anxious and afraid. In just 7 days, his face looked much older than before. It was as if he had gotten older by a few years. But in reality, the stress and pressure had made him look older.
"Of course, we're going to escape before that man attacks this city. We will be leaving the Nyland Kingdom in an hour." Arthur stood up and threw away the crown for which he had even killed his father and brothers. This crown now had lost its value. Even if Aditya stops now, the entire Nyland Kingdom was in flames. The glorious Kingdom that stood as the strongest Kingdom in the Eastern region has been crippled. This was not the Kingdom that Arthur wanted to rule.
In just 7 days, his Kingdom went from being the strongest Kingdom to being the weakest. And all this happened because of Aditya.
"Your Majesty, what about the Nyland Kingdom?" John pretended to look worried. In reality, he would have fled anyway even if Arthur had decided to remain.
Instead of replying, Arthur gave a sad look to the throne on which he only sat for not more than 7 days. Right before his eyes, he watched as his dreams and hopes were crushed. Now that the Nyland Kingdom had become like this, he wasn't confident about rebuilding it.
"We will take all the gold with us and leave the Nyland Kingdom. I am planning on going to the Beast continent or the continent of Westnia. I don't want to stay on this continent anymore. Using the gold in our possession, we should be able to live a good life." The thought of revenge never crossed his mind knowing that he can never defeat Aditya or the Istarin kingdom.
"Understood." John left and went to the treasury. But when he got there, he found the guards who were supposed to guard the treasury lying on the ground dead. Seeing this John had a bad feeling in his heart.
Click!
Opening the door of the treasury, John nearly lost his consciousness seeing all the gold and other treasures that the Nyland Kingdom had gone. The entire treasury was very clean. Not even a single piece of gold was left.
"Your Majesty" John came running to Arthur.
"What happened?" Arthur asked in an impatient tone.
"This is bad. Someone sneaked into the treasury after killing our guards. Now the whole treasury is clean. Not even a single piece of gold was left inside."
Hearing the news, Arthur nearly coughed out blood and fainted. But then Arthur realized something. "If someone is strong enough to kill two of our Mid-3rd-order guards, then we're in danger."
John also widened his eyes as his body began shaking in panic. The treasury was something that must be protected at any cost. As a result, the strongest guards were placed to keep the treasury secure and safe from enemies' hands. The enemy is strong enough to kill two of our Mid-3rd-order guards, then it was confirmed that no other guards can protect them anymore.
"Let's hurry up and leave this Palace before the culprit comes for our life." Arthur and John wanted to use the teleportation array and leave this place as soon as possible. Right now their first priority was to survive.
"King Arthur, you seem to be in a hurry." Arthurs and John's bodies shuddered in fear hearing the cold voice.
Turning around, Arthur found Aditya sitting on the throne that belonged to him. Aditya sat down on the throne with his legs crossed. He was looking at Arthur like he was looking at an insignificant ant.
"Aditya, you traitor." Arthur seems to have lost his mind.
"Me and a traitor?" Aditya looked at Arthur with an innocent and confused look.
"We were supposed to be allies yet you attacked the Nyland Kingdom. Now the whole Kingdom has collapsed because of you. You broke the promise that you made to my father. God will never forgive you."
"Hahaha!!!! Do you think I need your forgiveness?" Aditya laughed while holding his stomach. Behind Aditya, one by one his Majins started appearing out of the shadows.
"Your Majesty, we have killed everyone in the royal palace." Zachary reported while standing behind the golden throne.
"Yes, we were allies. But you broke the alliance first. The agreement stated that if any member of the triple alliance was in danger, the other two must send troops to protect their allies. When an army of one million and two hundred thousand attacked the Istarin Kingdom, the Nyland Kingdom did nothing."
"That was because I had assumed the throne on that day." Arthur tried to justify himself.
Aditya coldly stared at Arthur making the new King feel as if a mountain was pressing him. His legs had started trembling while sweat rolled down his neck. At this moment he was experiencing fear.
"I know that you and the Nepoca king had exchanged letters and secretly agreed to take down my Kingdom. Besides I am not here to justify myself or allow others to justify themselves."
Since Arthur and John both were going to die, Arthur decided to reveal the name of the organization that helped him. "I and that bastard Ethan, both of us were approached by an organization that is aiming for you and your Kingdom. Their name is 'The League of the Black Tomb."'
"Why are you telling me about my enemies?" Aditya asked. Deep down he was very furious. He did not show his anger on his face.
"Since my kingdom and I are going to die, I might as well drag my allies to death and wait for them in hell."
Aditya closed his eyes to prevent killing intent from leaking out of his body. He took a deep breath to calm himself before ordering. "Zachery, please end their misery."
"As you wish your Majesty."
Bang!
Arthur suddenly found blood gushing out of his throat. He tried to stop the bleeding by tightly pressing his throat with his hands. Regardless of how much he struggled in the end, he fell to the ground and died.
Sigh!
"Unfortunately, I could not learn anything about those men who were pulling the strings from the shadow. Sooner or later, I will find you people and kill you.
