Chapter 322 322:- Power Of Rune Monarch [IV]; The Small Girl Named Riya

Name:Dragon Monarch System Author:
Shatter!

The defensive dome that kept the minds of hundreds of thousands of people at ease shattered right before their eyes, and all the people within Zion city panicked. The crowd went wild. To make things worse, even the teleportation array also has stopped working.

The people began running here and there. Some people decided to hide in their homes. Some people approached the second wall with the hope that the soldiers would protect them. Unfortunately for them, the soldiers already surrendered to Aditya.

Meanwhile, the situation on the first wall was very different. Even though the enemy was only 4 people, the guards felt as if they were facing Gods on the battlefield. Their mortal bodies can never match the strength of these four. Their mortal minds didn't know what they should do in such a situation. The only that their minds told them to do was to run.

Run from here!

Run to survive!

Run with all of their might!

Run to get out of here!

And Pray that they don't get killed by these four!

One by one, the guards abandoned their positions and began to flee.

"Why should I stay here and get myself killed?"

"Let's flee from here."

Seeing more and more soldiers running away even before the battle started, the Captain and other soldiers who stayed were at a loss. Seeing so many fellow soldiers running away, the ones who stayed also started to feel that they should also run.

"Where are you guys going?" The Captain shouted. He really hoped that the soldiers would stop running and fight the enemy. Unfortunately, in a situation like this, no one bothered to listen to his words. It was chaos.

"Dammit! Where are the generals? In times like this, we really need their help?" The Captain felt useless. Even though he was also a 4th-order cultivator, even he didn't have the courage to face the enemy. His only last remaining hope was that one of the generals would come and stop the enemy. Little did he know, that their generals had been long killed by the Istarin Emperor.

Meanwhile, Josh, Amber, Nathan, and Scott arrived on top of the walls only to find the soldiers running away. No one was even willing to fight them.

"Cowards!"

"Originally, His Majesty told us to give the soldiers two options. Surrender and fight to the death. But it seems the soldiers are too afraid to even face us." Amber didn't know what to do.

"These guys are not fit to be soldiers. They do not have the courage to fight. I am sure they all will easily surrender and start working for the Istarin Empire. But hiring these soldiers would be the same as wasting the Empire's money." What Nathan said was right. Even if the Istarin Empire hired these soldiers and made them work for the Istarin Empire, in times of need, these spineless soldiers will just run from the battlefield.

"Should we kill them?" Nathan asked.

"No, let them escape. From this moment their careers as soldiers are over." Even if these soldiers tried to enter the Istarin Empire's military in the future, they won't be selected.

"Let's hurry up. I can't wait to join his Majesty." The four generals then began slaughtering the ones who opposed them.

Scene change____

On the other side of the battlefield,

Aditya had slaughtered over 12,000 troops. The ones who dared to fight him were dead. The ones who acted smart and surrendered were left alive. And the ones who ran away, Aditya didn't stop them.

Bang!

Opening the doors of the throne hall, Aditya walked towards the golden throne that was located at the end of the throne hall. There was a middle age man sitting on the throne and looking at Aditya.

The man had black hair and yellow eyes. He was 6 feet tall and had a muscular built body. The man was a Peak 4th-order mage. Sitting on his throne, he wore his crown and held a golden staff in his hand.

"Who are you?" Liam George asked.

Aditya did not reply. He instead removed the mask and revealed his face. Seeing his face, Liam's entire body began to tremble. Because of this, the golden crown fell to the ground.

"Yo.....You..."

"It's nice to meet you, Sir Liam. I am sure you know me very well." Aditya introduced himself as he stepped toward Liam.

"Don't come any closer." Liam was horrified. At this moment there were many questions in his mind. He wanted to know why this monster was here. If Aditya was here, then what happened to the Dragon Slayer guild? What happened to his generals?

"Sir Liam, as far as I am aware, there is no blood between us. I don't even know you. Yet you still sent the Dragon Slayer guild to take my life. That's not a good thing."

"After learning your name, I had to pay you a visit. Did you like my surprise?"

"Aditya.....you....." Liam was so scared that he couldn't speak properly. Deep down, he was now starting to regret being too greedy. If he hadn't been so greedy then he wouldn't have made Aditya his enemy.

Aditya stood 5 meters away from the throne. "This is the end of your Shadow Islands Empire. After killing you, I am going to pay a visit to your other two allies as well. Don't worry, very soon you will see your friends in hell."

Bang!

The next second, Liam found noticed something strange about his body. Liam found that the temperature of his entire body was rapidly increasing. "No, stop! Please forgive me." Liam cared about his life more than anything.

"Too late for that!"

Snap!

With the snap of his fingers, the next second, Liam's entire body melted along with the golden throne and his golden crown.

Ahhh!!!!!!

『Ding! You have killed a Peak 4th-order cultivator. Your experience points have been saved.』

Sigh!

"Finally done." The next moment Aditya used one of his new skills.

『Dragon Transfer』

『Dragon Transfer』

『3rd Order Passive Skill』

『Description: - A special passive that the host has learned when the Dragon Palace was made. Only the Dragon Monarch possesses this passive skill.』

『Function - Using this skill, the Dragon Monarch can switch places with any of your Blood vessels [Dragonain and Dragon soldiers] at any given second. This skill doesn't require any mana to use. The number of times that this skill can be used is unlimited and there is no cooldown time for this skill.』

The next second, Aditya appeared beside Amber.

Swoosh!

Amber, Nathan, Josh, and Scott, stopped and looked at Aditya. By now the four generals were also done and were heading toward the second wall.

"Your majesty!"

The generals were about to kneel but Aditya stopped them. "There is no need to kneel now. I have killed King Liam. There are around 8,000 soldiers who have surrendered. Amber, you take control of the situation. For now, don't reveal the Istarin empire's name."

"Understood." Amber nodded her head.

"You three come with me. By now, the Dragonians already should have attacked the other eight shadow islands." Nathan, Josh, and Scott were happy to assist their Monarch in battle.

『Dragon Transfer』

The next second, Aditya and the three generals teleported to The Enchanted Holm which is the biggest among the nine shadow islands.

The situation in The Enchanted Holm was the same. A light blue barrier has been built around the barrier. Without any 5th-order cultivator, no one can break the barrier. The barrier also prevented anyone from The Enchanted Holm from escaping.

Around one thousand Dragonians attacked the three cities on the Enchanted Holm. Within just two minutes, all three cities had fallen under the Dragonian's control. Also at the same time, the Duke who governed The Enchanted Holm and his entire has been captured alive.

"Greeting to Dragon Monarch!" All the Dragonians got on their knees to greet the Dragon Monarch.

"Everyone, stand up. I am proud of you all. But this isn't the time to stop." Saying these words, Aditya looked at the Duke whose hands has been tied and he was currently kneeling on the ground.

"Who are you?" The Duke asked.

"I am the Istarin Emperor." Duke Thomas and his wife widened their eyes in shock. Why the Istarin Empire attacked the Shadow islands Empire? Did King Liam offend Aditya in any way? Both Duke and his wife wondered.

One of the Dragonians took out a chair. Aditya sat down and looked at the Duke.

Duke Thomas was a man in his late twenties. He had long red hair and red glowing eyes. Thomas was a vampire and a Peak 3rd-order cultivator. Thomas had a family of three.

"Duke Thomas Evans!"

"You know my name?" Thomas didn't think that the Istarin Emperor would know his name.

"I know many things about you," Aditya replied with a cold smile.

"Duke Thomas Evans, from this moment onwards, the Shadow islands are under the control of the Istarin Empire. Before coming here, I killed your King. Now you have two choices in your hand. You can surrender and work for me or I will have to kill you.....No.....please don't kill Papa!" Aditya was interrupted by a 5 years old small girl.

One of the Dragonians pointed his sword at the little girl.

The 5 years old small girl almost looked like a younger version of Duke Thomas. "Put your sword down." Hearing Aditya's order, the Dragonian put his sword away from the little girl.

Strangely the Dragon Monarch smiled at the girl. This confused the three generals and others.

"Little girl, why should I spare your Papa?" Aditya asked in a stern voice.

"Because Riya loves Papa." Hearing this Aditya widened his eyes before a small smile appeared on his face. Aditya closed his eyes and couldn't help but think about his third wife whose name was also Riya.

'Why I am hesitating?' The Dragon Monarch asked himself.

Normally Aditya would never be hesitant when facing his enemies. His resolve always had been clear. He would never be hesitant to kill his enemies. For today, Aditya was feeling hesitant. He found his resolve shaking because of this little girl.

If Thomas rejected Aditya's offer, he was planning on killing Thomas and his entire family. But now he couldn't even bring himself to say these words. 'Normally I would kill Thomas's entire family along with him. But why I can't bring myself to kill this little girl? Have I become too soft or what?' In the past, Aditya would never hesitate.

Aditya looked at the little girl. Children are said to be angels because of their innocence. Children are not corrupted by the evil of this world. They are the purest being in this world.

"Your Majesty?" Nathan hesitantly called out to Aditya.

In his response, the Monarch showed a small smile before looking at Thomas. "Thomas, you have done many wrong things in your life. Normally I would kill you and your entire family. But your daughter has changed my mind now." Everyone noticed that Aditya's tone seems to have gotten softer.

Meanwhile, Thomas widened his eyes upon hearing Aditya's words. At this moment something changed inside Thomas as well.

"Thomas, if you're ready to serve me under a contract then I will let you remain as the Duke of this island. But do know that, serving me would mean that you would have to change. You cannot continue doing your illegal business. You have to change your path. Or I will destroy your and your wife's cultivation and kick your entire family out of this Empire. Now chose your and your family's future."
