This chapter has been edited.

--------

Seeing Riya calming down, Alexzander secretly sighed in relief. He also swore in his heart to not say anything rude to Aditya. Aditya wasn't Gian who endured Alexzander's rude attitude. Alexzander had mistakenly thought that the Emperor wouldn't be offended by his attitude.

"Alexzander, earlier you said that contract is a way of making the nobles slaves, right?" Aditya's words attracted Alexzander's attention.

"Guess what, you're right to a certain extent. At the end of the day, you all are my enemy. Normally I would just put you all in prison or just end your lives. The contract is to make sure that none of the nobles can betray the Istarin Empire. The contract does not make you a slave in any way. All one has to do is follow the three conditions written in the contract." Aditya said these words to let everyone, including the newly appointed governors know that Aditya wasn't trying to control them in any way.

"Aside from Alexzander, is there anyone else who wishes to follow him?" The entire place fell into silence. They would be fools if they rejected Aditya's offer. Even Alexzander was starting to regret rejecting Aditya's offer.

"Good. Alexzander, since you don't want to serve me, let Spencer tell you about your future." At that moment, Alexzander that he was done. His lips quivered to speak but no words came out of his mouth.

Spencer coldly looked at Alexzander. "Your cultivation will be crippled. All of your belongings and your family's belongings will be seized. And lastly, you and your family are banned from ever stepping into the Istarin Empire." Aditya then looked at Spencer and nodded his head.

"Please.....don't do this to me." Alexzander fell to his knees and started beginning Aditya. However, Aditya didn't look at Alexzander at all. He totally ignored the man.

Alexzander bought this fate with his own hands. If he wasn't rude to Aditya, then Aditya would have given Alexzander a new chance to start his family outside the Istarin Empire. But now Aditya didn't care what happened to him.

Spencer looked at Josh and said. "Do it."

Josh stepped forward. Before Alexzander could react, a strong punch landed on his heart.

Bang!

Ahhhhh!!!!!

Cough!

Alexzander fell to his knees before coughing out a mouthful of blood. He then looked at Aditya and then passed out. Seeing what was happening in front of them, some nobles had to turn their heads away. This was just too cruel. Destroying a cultivator's cultivation was much more painful than killing them.

"Throw him and his family in the White Desert." Hearing this the other ex-nobles' bodies trembled in fear. One had to know that The White Desert that Prime Minister Spencer was talking about was located in the Dry Savanna continent. The Dry Savanna continent was the hottest continent out there. The White Desert is the largest desert in the whole world. It is said that once someone is lost in the white desert, that person's life is basically over as getting out of the White Desert is like looking for a needle in Haystack.

Two Dragonians grabbed Alexzander and dragged him out of the throne hall.

"Now let's continue," Aditya said with a smile. He pretended as if Alexander didn't exist.

"Kenny Norman, Joseph Andrews, and Yasmin Parker, I am willing to give you three a second chance. If you don't want to serve me that's fine. You can reject my offer. I swear I won't harm you."

Kenny Norman, Joseph Andrews, and Yasmin Parker looked at each other and nodded their heads. They have lived their entire lives as nobles. They were not sure if they can live a normal life at this point. Besides, the offer came from the Istarin Empire. In the Dying Isle continent, who doesn't know about the Istarin Empire and the Istarin King? Getting the chance of serving the Istarin Emperor would be an honor.

"We accept."

"Good." Aditya nodded his head with a satisfied look.

Aditya then moved to call the ex-nobles from the Qezia Empire. Just like the ex-nobles of the Niwen Empire, they too also accepted Aditya's offer and agreed to serve him.

The Qezia Empire was a very small Empire. The Empire was made up of four islands. What enabled the Qezia Empire to grow into an Empire is its natural resources. The four islands of the Qezia Empire had a total of 9 gold mines. Among the three Empires that Aditya conquered, the Qezia Empire was the richest Empire. Mainly because of the 9 gold mines.

Being rich meant that the Qezia Empire also had a strong military. The four islands had 800,000 troops. Out of the 800,000 troops, 300,000 troops surrendered. The rest were either killed or managed to flee. 300,000 troops were more than enough to protect the Islands. If Aditya turned even 10,000 of the troops into Dragonians, then these 10,000 Dragonians would be able to take on an army of 300,000 and win.

"The Lion Island and the Kingfisher Island are still left without a governor. Spencer, do you have any capable and also trustworthy individuals who can take on the role of governing these two Islands?" Aditya asked his Prime Minister.

Spencer replied with a smile. "Your Majesty, in fact, there are many individuals who are more than capable enough to take on this role. The first one is a Dragonian. His name is Mason Lynn."

"Ohh.... Tell me more about him?" Aditya became interested. If Spencer was speaking highly of this Dragonian, then this Dragonian must be someone extraordinary or must be someone who has accomplished something extraordinary.

"Mason Lynn is one of the first 100 Dragonians. Mason is talented in Managing. Mason received high-level education before joining the Istarin Military. He often helps me out with skills. Aside from Management, Mason is talented, hard-working, and has a nice personality. Mason is diligent. He spends most of his free time cultivating. He has now reached beginner 4th order."

"Alright. Tell me about the other person?" Aditya nodded his head and asked Spencer about the other person.

"The other person whom I would like to recommend is Lucas Brooks. Your Majesty, Lucas Brooks is the cousin of Duke Zayne."

Hearing this Aditya wasn't surprised. In fact, he also thought of Lucas Brooks when asking Spencer.

Previous Duke Eastgard had betrayed the Istarin Empire. Zayne who was the commander of Duke Eastgard helped Aditya. Aditya later appointed Zayne as the Duke. Zayne also married Eastgard's daughter Kaia as both of them were in love.

Zayne's cousins worked under Zayne for a short period of time before deciding to join the Istarin Military. When Lucas joined the military, Watson had informed Aditya about this. Watson had asked the superiors to keep a close eye on Lucas. Aditya thought that Zayne would use his powers to promote Lucas in the military but nothing like that happened.

Instead Lucas never even mentioned to anyone that he is the cousin of Duke Zayne. Within a month, Lucas proved himself that he had the potential to become one of the best. Whatever mission, he was given, he was able to complete it in time and perfectly. In a few months, Lucas became one of the best Istarin soldiers. Not only that but also, Lucas became the fastest soldier to reach the rank of Captain.

Because of this, Aditya had turned Lucas into a Dragonian as well.

"Spencer, tell me why are you recommending Lucas?" Aditya wanted to know. Even Watson had praised Lucas many times in front of Aditya.

"Your Majesty, I think General Henry should speak of Lucas's character." Lucas joined Henry's division. In fact, Lucas was one of the best soldiers that Henry had in his division. So it would be fair if Henry spoke instead of Spencer.

Everyone's attention fell on Henry. The cold, ruthless general of the Istarin Empire. The general always wore a cold expression that kept others away from him. Henry remained quiet most of the time. But when he opened his mouth, others always listened to him.

"Your Majesty, Lucas is the best soldier that I have ever trained. Lucas is much smarter than me. He is intelligent, he knows how to lead and command. He is a hard-working young man. He isn't the type to be distracted from his goal easily. Lucas has also worked under Duke Zayne so he has experience in governing. I think Lucas is perfect for this job." And so, another declaration was made.

"Alright. Bring them here." Aditya had no problem with Lucas and Mason becoming nobles.

Within 5 minutes, both tan-skinned, muscular men were kneeling before Aditya.

"Stand up." As both of them stood up, they raised their chest high. Both Dragonians had a different Aura from normal cultivators. Their Auras were much more fierce. Just from a glance, People would be able to tell that they are not ordinary soldiers.

Their eyes were filled with respect and endless admiration for the Dragon Monarch. Aditya felt if he ordered them to take their own lives, they wouldn't hesitate to do it.

"Lucas and Mason, I want you to become the governor of The Lion Island and the Kingfisher Island. What do you think?" Aditya asked. If both of them refused, Aditya would just send them back.

"It would be our honor."

"Good." Aditya looked at Spencer and nodded his head. Spencer understood what he need to do.

And so, another declaration was made.

『From this moment onward, under the order of His Majesty, the 7 anterior dukes along with Captain Lucas and Mason will be appointed as the governors of the 9 Islands. Lucas Brooks, Mason Lynn, Kenny Norman, Joseph Andrews, Yasmin Parker, Isaac Thomson, Aiden Clark, Damon Chavez, and Thomas Wallace have been given the rank of Viscount.
