Chapter 210

Bulky braziers attached to each of the twelve granite columns light up the entire throne hall and shroud it in a dark orange radiance. The humongous chandeliers hanging from the oblique ceiling dance in the flickering light while memorials look down upon the teak floor of this grand hall.

An ebony rug runs from the throne to the doors and is matched by smaller ones on either side of the hall while burgee banners with adorned sides cover parts of the walls. Between each banner hangs a small luster, all but a few have been lit and in turn, illuminate the statuettes of divine beings below them.

Slim, stained glass windows depicting divine beings are hidden by curtains colored the same ebony as the banners. The curtains have been adorned with emblazoned edges and fine patterns.

A grandiose throne of marble sits in front of a giant painting of the previous ruler and is adjoined by three plain, but comfortable seats for the royal highness family members.

The throne is covered in gilded marks and fixed on each of the broad ears is a carved face. The comfortable pillows are dark ebony and these too have been adorned with emblazoned tracery.

Those waiting to see their royal highness can do so on the abundance of extravagant and comfortable maple benches, all of which are facing the throne in a half circle. Those of higher standing can instead take seats in the extravagant balustrades facing the throne.

Sitting on the grandiose throne, there was an otherworldly middle-aged handsome man looking at the people who were currently kneeling before him. This middle-aged handsome man had long black hair that flowed like a river down to his waist. The man had black pupils which seems to contain an endless amount of darkness in them.

The man stood at a height of 2 meters. The man had slightly brown skin and small black scales covering his body. The man held a black spear in his right hand.

The man wore a black full-sleeved robe. On the back of the robe, the face of a black dragon was drawn.

This was the Emperor of the Southern Fire Dragon Empire. This man was also known as the Black Dragon King. His real name was Brolbiner, Champion Of The Skies. Brolbiner was a Peak 5th-order cultivator who has been ruling the Southern Fire dragon Empire for 500 years. Brolbiner and his twin brother were one of the longest-reigning Emperors of the Dying Isle continent's history. While Most Emperors handed their position to their heir or successors, both dragon Kings continued to rule for 500+ years. Some people in the secret even thought that both Dragon brothers were competing. Neither of them wanted to end their reign before their brother who the other considered a rival did.

Brolbiner and his twin brother both had the option of going to the main continent but neither of the dragon Kings stepped outside the Southern region fearing that their brother might attack in his absence.

"My dragon King, I have bought back news that you wished to hear." One of the women kneeling before Brolbiner spoke while keeping his head lowered and looking at the ground. If anyone disrespected the black dragon king even the slightest, then that person regardless of his rank would die.

"Speak." Even though Brolbiner just said one word, his one word seems to have put huge pressure on everyone inside the throne hall. Some even started to feel suffocated and very uncomfortable from this pressure.

"Just like you had ordered us, we have sent letters to every Empire on the Dying Isle continent. I have received their response. Out of the top 10 strongest and biggest Empires on the continent, only two of the Empires have accepted our request and have decided to send reinforcement."

Brolbiner remained quiet for a moment before asking. "How many Empires agreed to stand with the Northern Frost Dragon Empire?" Everyone noticed that while saying the name of the enemy and the rival Empire, Brolbiner eyes were filled with an endless amount of killing intent and hatred.

The woman who was reporting all this to Brolbiner trembled in fear while secretly wondering if the black dragon King would kill her after hearing her report.

"2 Empires have sided with the enemy Empire while the remaining 6 Empires have taken the decision of staying neutral saying that this war has nothing to do with them." Inwardly the woman felt kind of relieved. If all the top Empires were to join this war, then the flames of war will spread throughout the Dying Isle continent which would result in the deaths of countless people.

"What about the Istarin Empire?" Everyone in the throne hall was very interested to know if the Istarin empire had accepted their request. After all, everyone in this room knew just how amazing the Istarin Empire was and how dangerous the Istarin King was.

"Unfortunately, King Aditya has refused our offer. In fact, the Istarin empire was one of the first Empires to refuse our offer. The Istarin Empire has publicly stated that they will stay out of this war but if the Istarin Empire is forcefully involved in this war in any way, the Istarin empire will strike back."

Hearing the last part, everyone in the throne hall secretly wondered if the Istarin King was an idiot or what. There is no way in hell that the Istarin Empire can go against the Southern Fire Dragon Empire. Everyone secretly glanced at the black dragon King who strangely remained quiet. Everyone was expecting him to get burn this entire place in anger.

Time passed like sand in hand, and more than 10 minutes passed in silence. The entire throne hall remained quiet and waited for their Emperor to say something. Strangely enough, the more time passed, the more nervous everyone became. With each passing second, everyone's nervousness kept on increasing.

"Did the Istarin Empire say anything else?" The Black Dragon King strangely was calm and collected despite being threatened by the Istarin Empire.

"No...Nothing." Brolbiner closed his eyes and leaned his back against the throne.

"Leave the Istarin Empire alone. Invite both Empires who have decided to offer us a helping hand. We cannot waste any time. After I kill my brother with my very own hands, I am coming for King Aditya and his Empire."

Similar things were happening at the Northern Frost Dragon Empire. Even if both Dragon twin brothers denied it, in some way both brothers were the same. Both brothers wanted supremacy. Both brothers wanted to become the strongest. Both brothers wanted to become a ruler of the entire Southern region.

At the same time, the Dragon Monarch had just returned to the Istarin Empire after having lunch with Kane and his family. As soon as Aditya returned, Watson come to greet him.

"Your Majesty, how did everything go?" Watson asked.

"Everything went better than we had expected. Now we have a place in the Southern region. Time to take things to the next level. Watson, what's the current situation of both Dragon Empires?" Aditya had sent Zachary and other Majins along with Nathan to keep an eye on both Empires.

"Your Majesty, it seems some empires have decided to themselves involved in this war. Right now as we speak, those Empires are preparing to send their troops to the southern region. I am afraid this war will paint the entire southern region in blood." Leaving aside the Northern Frost Dragon Empire and the Southern Fire Dragon Empire, out of the 10 strongest Empires on the continent, the fact that four of them were getting involved is enough to make the whole situation too chaotic.

"Let those fools fight among themselves." Aditya had a hunch that among the Empires that decided to stay neutral some of them will secretly prepare themselves to strike when both the Northern Frost Dragon Empire and the Southern Fire Dragon Empire has been weakened greatly. Even Aditya was planning the same except that he already had found his footing in the Southern region, this kept the Dragon Monarch ahead of those idiots who were also planning the same. Now if the Southern Fire Dragon Empires tries to bully or oppress or exploit his territory in any way, Aditya would have the perfect excuse to start a war with the Southern fire dragon region.

"I have told both Black dragon King and White Dragon King if the Istarin Empire is attacked or forced into this war in any way, we will strike back. While both Dragon kings would think of my threat as some words of arrogance, they have failed to see understand what I truly meant." Aditya couldn't help but grin as his blood boiled in excitement. This war would be the perfect opportunity for the Istarin Empire to become the strongest Empire throughout the entire Dying Isle continent.

"Watson, I need you to call Amber, Henry, and Eleanor here. Ask them to pick their 100 most powerful men and bring them here. Also, bring 100 3rd-order dragonians to the throne hall." Aditya wasn't going to bring a big force to the Sky Line kingdom which now had become a part of the Istarin empire. Doing that would alert the enemy and spoil his future plans. Let those two arrogant dragons fight and prepare the stage for the Istarin Empire to make a grand entrance.
