Chapter 738:- Offer

738 Chapter 738:- Offer

"Even though I was being controlled, please allow me to apologize for everything that I have done. Please know that none of my actions were under my control. Everything I did was being controlled by that b**** Luna." The King of the Thera Kingdom bowed his head. "It's alright! There is no need for you or anyone here to apologize. Let's put the past behind us." Hearing this, everyone else felt relieved. They felt a huge weight had been lifted from their shoulders. But only if they knew what Aditya had in his mind. Aditya will no longer trust them as he did before. He will now remain cautious and be prepared for them.

"But to make sure that this kind of situation does not arise in the future, I would like you all to sign a soul-binding contract," Aditya said with a nice smile on his face. "Can we know the details of this contract?" Aditya just signaled Spencer to tell everyone what was written on the contract. This contract will give Aditya more power over these Empires and Kingdoms. One of the conditions in the contract was that if any Kingdom ever decided to go against the Istarin Empire for no good reason, Aditya, the Emperor of the Istarin Empire, had the right to take control of that Kingdom for a while. He can rule over the Kingdom until the true reason for their actions is discovered.

Now, this rule has a few loopholes that Aditya can use to take over their Kingdoms whenever he wants. Hearing the conditions and the rules of this contract, everyone fell into silence. Aditya closed his eyes. 'You all know you have two choices.' Aditya thought in his mind. Every one of these Kingdoms was heavily dependent on the Istarin Empire. Except for the Echo Dominion Empire, the other three Rulers knew that their Kingdoms' economy and safety relied on the Istarin Empire. Even the Echo Dominion Empire's economy was closely tied with the Istarin Empire. Not to mention that all of these Kingdoms obtained their supply of cheap but high-quality cultivation pills and medicines from the Istarin Empire. So, Severing their relationship with the Istarin Empire was never an option. Doing this would be the same as crippling their own Kingdoms. If they did not sign the contract, then they won't have the trust of the Istarin Empire anymore. The Istarin Empire will slowly distance itself from that Kingdom, and they will lose all the benefits that they received from the Istarin Empire. The catch was that every Ruler in this room was desperate to regain the trust of the Istarin Empire. Even Emperor Daxton was no exception to this. So, to win the Empire's trust, everyone would sign the contract even though this contract would give the Istarin Empire power over their Kingdoms. The reason why these Rulers will sign this contract is because of Aditya's character. Even if they did sign the contract, it wasn't like Aditya would misuse his powers and take control of their territories. Aditya looked at the faces of all the Rulers. Everyone was deeply thinking. They were considering the advantages and disadvantages. Obviously, the advantages that they will gain from this contract are far more than the disadvantages. Before the meeting, Aditya and Spencer thought of this matter for about an hour. Given their current standing, they have no choice but to sign the contract.

Scene Change_______

At the lowest level of the Prison, there was one single cell. This single cell was slightly larger than the other cells of this prison. The interior of the cell was lit with moonlight. Other than that, the outside of the cell was covered in darkness. This darkness made Luna feel that she had been sent to an endless void. The only source of light came from the single dimly-lit moonstone in her cell. The False Goddess Luna was sitting on the floor with her bed resting against the cold wall of the cell. Since being put in prison, she hasn't seen the light of the sun. She hasn't had any interaction with any being. This was the first time she was spending this much time without her dear companion, Sky Serpent. In the past, whenever she was alone, at least she had the company of the Sky Serpent with her, but now she was truly alone. For the first time in her life, Luna felt lonely. And this feeling was really unbearable. Tap.....!! Tap.....!!!

Hearing the footsteps, Luna thought it was a guard coming to deliver her bland prison meal, as usual. "To think that you have fallen this low.......!!" Luna heard an unfamiliar voice. When she raised her head, she saw the face of a handsome man with long blue hair and eyes that seemed to be glowing red in the darkness. From these features, she knew that the Emperor had personally visited him. "I guess, you're here to laugh at my situation." Luna stared into his eyes without a trace of fear. Her hair was disheveled. She was wearing a white ordinary prisoner outfit. Even her pretty face seems to have become ugly after being kept here. "I am not here to laugh at anyone," Aditya said in a neutral tone. "What do you want? Are you finally here to kill me?" Luna asked. If death was what waited for her, at least she would be free after a moment of pain. She won't any longer have to endure this suffocating loneliness and stay surrounded by this void of darkness. "I am not here to kill you either. I came here with an offer." ----------------
