Chapter 697 697:- Rune Formation

Sitting in the front of the mirror, Aditya noticed that Julia was staring at him. He could see her staring at his face in the mirror.

She had a small smile on her face.

"What are you staring at?" Meanwhile, a maid was busy styling Aditya's long blue hair.

"You have become handsome," Julia replied with a smile. She loved staring at his face. This once used to be the face that she disliked.

Alicia always found the marriage contract with Aditya distasteful. She always wished to end the marriage contract. But neither her family nor even the Emperor of Echo Dominion had the power to do that. Now, things have changed.

"I was just thinking that with each passing day, you're becoming more and more handsome." She wasn't just flattering him. It was the truth. Each time his Dragon bloodline evolved, Aditya slightly became handsome. If before he was 7 out of 10 now he would be 8.5 or even close to 9 out of 10.

"You know, I miss the time when you used to run away from me. You used to bite me." Remembering the things that she had done in the past, Julia felt embarrassed.

"You're not allowed to talk about those things." It was just too embarrassing.

Compared to those times, Julia has grown a lot.

"Haha.....!! Why don't you come here so that we can bite each other for a while?" Aditya teased her.

Her face turned red hearing his words.

"What's the matter? Didn't you used to love biting me?" Aditya continued teasing her.

"If you keep saying that, then..."

"Then?"

"I will kill you 100 times." Aditya felt like he could see imaginary purple cat cars on Julia's head. She looked like an angry kitten hissing at its owner.

"Oh, I have missed this. It has been a while since I have heard this sentence." Aditya said, looking at Julia in the mirror.

Hearing his words, she just snorted and ignored him.

Hmph...!!

"Hahaha....!!" If Aditya wasn't getting ready to attend Spencer's wedding or if they were alone at the moment, he would have continued to bully her.

Meanwhile, the maid who was doing Aditya's hair felt very awkward. She tried her very best not to interfere with the couple and become invisible. She even tried to slow down her breathing so that she could be invisible.

For a single like her, this kind of romantic atmosphere was unbearable. She felt miserable.

Click...!!!

"Aditya, are you done?" Alicia entered the bedroom wearing a green veil. The veil covered her face except for her emerald eyes and her forehead.

She wore a beautiful Kimono matching her eye color and veil.

"I am almost done," Aditya replied while looking at himself in the mirror.

As Alicia walked inside, her eyes fell on Aditya's hair.

Aditya usually, more like always, keeps his hair down regardless of the occasion. He very rarely ties his hair into a bun, as he feels that bun does not suit him.

He has often thought of cutting his long blue hair short.

But today, Julia instructed the maid to change his hairstyle.

Once the maid was done, she politely moved away and gave the Emperor some space to look at his new hairstyle in the mirror.

"It's not bad."

But the next second, Aditya mysteriously appeared in front her and hugged her.

"I am always fair with you all." Saying that he kissed both of her cheeks.

Chu....!!!

Scene Change_______

The Istarin Empire had a vast collection of islands, each with its own unique characteristics. Some of these islands were home to millions of people, while others had populations in the thousands or were completely empty.

However, there were certain islands that held a special significance for the Empire. These were the islands that were guarded and protected by the Imperial troops and Dragonians, as they contained rare metals like Mana stones. Other islands were protected for strategic reasons, as they held key positions that could impact the Empire's defenses.

While there were nobles governing some of the islands, the Dragon Monarch held direct control over most of them. Aditya was one such powerful figure who wielded significant influence over the islands, ensuring that they remained loyal to the Empire.

For example, in one of the Shadow Islands, a very special type of herb known as the Thunder Leaf Herb grew here. The Emperor had control over how this precious resource will be controlled and disturbed. The Noble who was in charge of governing Shadow Island obeyed Aditya's orders.

Something very exciting happened today on one of the islands in the Istarin Empire. The Prime Minister was getting married to his fiancé Aria on a beautiful island called Stone-Heart Island. As the name suggests, it's shaped like a heart and is covered in lots of trees and greenery, making it perfect for couples to get married.

Stone-Heart Island is famous for being a romantic spot, and many noble couples have chosen to get married there. Spencer and Aria also picked this island because they wanted a beautiful place to start their new life together. The island's charm and beauty made it the perfect choice for them to celebrate their love.

The island was buzzing with excitement as everyone prepared for a big event—the Prime Minister's wedding. It was a significant occasion that attracted the locals and other important people, including neighboring kings and emperors.

People were running around, ensuring everything was perfect for the wedding. Even the highest nobles of the Istarin Empire, along with their families, had come to attend.

The Emperor had invited all his allies, who also made their way to the island, to join in the celebration.

Riya transformed the island into a colorful paradise. Walking through it feels like stepping into a painting. The forest is now a carpet of multicolored leaves. The wind carries the sweet scent of newly transformed vegetation. Blue, pink, and gold leaves dance in the air.

Riya has been working on this island for three days now. She wanted to keep everything a surprise from Aria and Spencer. Only she and her mother, Amelia, knew how tough it was to prevent Aria and Spencer from coming here. They had to give them excuses after excuses.

Now, Riya's present to Aria and Spencer was ready.

At the center of the Island, there was a large teleportation array.

It was only 8 in the morning, yet guests had already started coming. Most nobles came here with their partners. Some even brought their children, hoping that their children would bond with other noble children.

After all, having connections with other nobles could be really helpful in the short and long run.

The whole Island was protected using Rune formations. Due to Rune Formations, this Island was hidden from the outside world. There was a wall of fog surrounding this entire Island. Any cultivator below the 5th order will become confused after entering this fog. This fog will distort their sense of direction and will trap them inside.

There are also powerful rune towers that fire lightning bolts and fireballs if enemies manage to arrive anywhere within 500 meters of the island.

This whole island is protected with all sorts of rune formations.

There were also multiple 5th-order and a few thousand 4th-

order Dragonians guarding the whole Island.

The Safety of the guests was secured.
