But Aditya decided to play along. "Ohh.....! Exactly how you're going to compensate me?"
Hearing Aditya's words, Harris' eyes lit up. This meant there was a chance that he can avoid clashing with Aditya. He might be able to restore their relationship with the Istarin Empire.
Meanwhile, Ellis understood what the Supreme Elder wanted to do. But he was still dissatisfied. He was disrespected by the Supreme Elder in front of everyone just to please their enemy. 'It's all his fault.' Ellis hatefully glared at Aditya.
Aditya noticed the hateful glare that Ellis was giving him. But for now, he decided to ignore his glare and focus on Supreme Elder Harris. At the same time, he secretly began activating his other skills.
Maybe these snakes will try to take him down with a sneak attack. Aditya needs to be on his guard.
"Your Majesty, the Dragon Slayer guild has made a mistake. We realize our mistake. The Dragon slayer guild is willing to compensate the Istarin Empire with a Billion Royal gold coins." Hearing the words of the Supreme Elder Harris, everyone else widened their eyes in deep shock.
Elder Aydan almost slapped Supreme Elder Harris. Giving away a billion Royal gold coins would make them very poor. The Dragon Slayer guild would be left with a few hundred of royal gold coins. And these Billion Royal gold coins didn't just belong to the Supreme Elder, a big part of it also belonged to the other 5th Elders.
'What this bastard is thinking? Giving away 1,000,000,000 royal gold coins is too much.' In Aydan's opinion, even giving 100 million royal gold coins was too much.
Aditya noticed that now, it was not just Elder Ellis, even the other elders and all the members of the Dragon Slayer guild who were hatefully glaring at Aditya. 'Everyone here cares about their wealth more than their lives.' It was very easy to guess this fact.
Aditya summoned the system from the corner of his eyes and looked at the system log.
Storm Summon!
『Ding! The passive boost of the Storm Marshal class has been activated. The host's mana has been temporarily increased by 50%. The power of lightning and wind-type attacks has been increased by 50%. Your Agility has been increased by [300+].』
Inferno Overdrive!
Storm Flight!
Lightning Armor!
Crimson Lightning Dash!
『Ding! You have activated Inferno Overdrive. You have entered into a berserk state. All of your stats except for Mana have been increased by 70%.』
『Ding! You have activated Storm Flight. Due to the storm, the agility boost from the Storm Flight has been doubled. You have obtained [200+] Agility points.』
『Ding! You have activated the Lightning Armor. Your defense has increased. You have obtained [100+] strength.』
『Ding! You have activated Crimson Lightning Dash. By consuming [20+] mana per second, you have obtained [200+] agility points.』
Now that Aditya's stats also have increased, his powers have skyrocketed to another level. The current Aditya can defeat the Man eater monster with half effort.
Sensing that Aditya's Aura getting stronger, Supreme Elder Harris started sweating. While others failed to notice this as they were busy glaring at Aditya and inwardly cursing him.
'Is One Billion royal gold coins not enough?' Harris gritted his teeth in anger. Even though giving away one billion royal gold coins would have crippled the Dragon Slayer guild, Supreme Elder Harris was still willing to give such a huge amount of money to Aditya so he wouldn't attack them, but it seems even one billion royal gold coins may not be enough to make Aditya not attack the guild.
"It would be most gracious of us if, Your Majesty, if this amount was not sufficient, we could increase the amount. Each month we will give you 50% of our profits for the next 5 years. We will keep doing this until the profits reach our target." Supreme Elder Harris tried to be as humble as possible. For someone like him, it was not easy for him to lower his head but he was still willing to do it for the sake of protecting his guild.
"Supreme Elder, have you fucking lost your mind? Giving this bastard 50% of our monthly earnings for 5 years on top of giving him 1 billion royal gold coins. Are you trying to destroy the Dragon Slayer guild from the inside? Instead of all this bullshit, it would be better if we just attack this bastard and kill him here. I refuse to believe that 6 Peak 5th-order cultivators cannot kill this bastard." Aaron, another elder completely lost his mind hearing the words of the Supreme Elder.
Supreme Elder Harris, at this moment, was in a very difficult situation. He knew that the other elders were very dissatisfied with him. The other elders would rather face Aditya in battle than give their wealth to Aditya. 'But these fools fail to understand that even all of us here cannot defeat this monster. Since when did you all become so idiot?'
"Your name is Aaron I assume." Aditya coldly looked at Aaron. Facing Aditya's gaze, elder Aaron wasn't the slightest bit afraid. He instead raised his chest high and arrogantly looked at Aditya.
"That's right. My name is Aaron."
Aditya nodded his head before looking at Supreme Elder Harris. "Elder Harris, I don't need one billion royal gold coins from you. Just tell me the name of the party that asked you to take me down. That would be enough. The Istarin Empire won't harm the Dragon Slayer guild. Instead, the Istarin Empire will offer protection to this island."
Hearing Aditya's words, everyone was confused. But Supreme Elder Harris became really happy. These words sounded more like a dream. It was just too good to be true for Supreme Elder Harris.
"Your majesty, you're not lying, are you?" Quincy Harris feared that Aditya would change his words after learning the name of their contractor.
Aditya shook his head. "This Emperor doesn't lie. I never break my promise." Aditya replied with a cold smile.
Supreme Elder was relieved to hear this. The anger in the other elder's eyes also decreased. But Elder Ellis was still hatefully glaring at Aditya. "Around 40 days ago, I was approached by a certain person. He is a very influential person in the Western region of the Dying Isle continent. He is one of the Great Emperors. He is the Emperor of the Shadow Islands Empire."
Aditya coldly smiled after learning.
"As we know, currently Western region is at war with each other. The Shadow Islands and two other Empires haven't been involved in the war and have been remaining neutral. The three Emperors made up a plan to eliminate Your Majesty. Once the Dragon Emperor is dead, taking over the Entire Istarin Empire would be super easy."
Harris didn't need to say more as he knew Aditya has understood everything. 'With this, Our Dragon Slayer guild won't have to worry about the Istarin Empire anymore.' Harris sighed in relief while wiping the sweat from his forehead. This entire time has been very nervous.
'So it was them all along. I thought the war in the Western region would make those bastard Emperors forget about me. I guess I was wrong. This time, I will personally end all of the seven Emperors. I have held back long enough. I was wrong to show them mercy.' Aditya made up his mind to end the Seven Empires in the Western region. Since they had decided to make the Istarin Empire their enemy, why Aditya should show them mercy?
"Your majesty, would you like to come and visit the Fallen Dragon Island?" Supreme Elder Harris had completely let his guard down now. Since it was well known that Aditya was someone who kept his word, Elder Harris knew that there was no need of being worried about Aditya.
"Of course. I am going to visit Fallen Dragon Island. But before that, I have something that I would like to do first." Aditya's cold smile Harris feel something was wrong. His instinct suddenly became sharp. He felt something really bad was going to happen right now.
Before anyone could understand what Aditya was about to do. He moved so first that others it almost felt as if he had teleported right in front of Supreme Elder Harris. Before Harris could even react, Aditya punched Supreme Elder's heart with his full strength.
Crack!
At that moment, everyone's blood runs cold hearing the loud cracking sound. Everyone widened their eyes in deep horror.
From the immense pain, Supreme Elder Harris passed out after coughing out a large mouthful of blood. But before losing consciousness, Harris looked at Aditya as if he was looking at the Devil. There were so many things that Harris wanted to say but he couldn't.
"You bastard." Others became raged seeing this. Destroying the mana heart of a Peak 5th-order cultivator was worse than being killed. Others angrily charged toward Aditya.
"Hmph! Bunch of ants who call themselves slayers of dragons. You're not worthy. This Dragon Monarch has a score to settle with the Dragon Slayer guild. Right now I do not represent the Istarin Empire. I represent all the dragons whose lives that you all have taken since the beginning. This Dragon King is here to take revenge." Aditya wasn't lying. He never said that he was going to spare them. He said that the Istarin Empire won't mess with the Dragon Slayer guild. Aditya wasn't breaking his words.
After saying these words, Aditya stopped suppressing his blood. As Aditya's bloodline was unsuppressed, the Aura around him intensified.
As Dragon Slayers, everyone's faces turned pale as they realized that the Istarin Empire had Divine rank Dragon bloodline. Everyone's body began to tremble to look at the Dragon Monarch. The remaining elders' blood ran cold. Around 6 months ago, a being with Divine Bloodline was born. At that time, the Dragon Slayer guild tried its best to find out who that person was. They never thought that this person was Aditya.
At this moment, the hundreds of dragons who have been captured alive by the Dragon Slayer guild. The captured dragons that were put into the underground prison all sensed the presence of a Divine Dragon.
Inside the prison,
In a place where hundreds of Dragons have been caged for decades.....
In a dark hell where dragons are regularly tortured.....
In a place where sunlight cannot reach.....
A place where thousand of Dragons are regularly brutally tortured and killed.....
A place where hundreds of Dragons have been caged.
Sensing the Aura of a Divine Dragon, all the Dragons opened their eyes and looked at the ceiling. All of them can feel it. Beyond the ceiling, beyond the earth, a thousand meters above the sky, their Savior had finally come.
"Our king has come."
"He is here."
"He is here." All the Dragons Roared at the same time.
"Our King is here." All of their bloodlines reacted.
At the same time, Aditya let out a loud frightening roar that shook Heaven and Earth. Aditya's roar was so strong that some 4th-order cultivators directly lost their consciousness. Everyone was forced to take a step back from Aditya. His Roar was heard even from 100 km away.
Inside the dark prison, all the Dragons heard Aditya's words. All the dragons opened their eyes.
pαпdα Й?νê|,сòМ 『This Dragon Monarch is here. It's time to rise. Destroy the Cage that has been binding you. Kill any obstacles in your path. Do not fear your enemies as your Monarch is here.』
『Oh, my Dragons, stand up. This Dragon Monarch is calling you. Do not let these filthy beings hold you down. Now STAND UP!』
At that moment, as if something inside all the Dragons broke. It was the moment when a miracle happened. A moment that would be remembered till the end of time.
The call from the Dragon Monarch reignited the once-lost burning passion of the Dragons who have been put into this dark cage for decades now.
『Brothers and Sisters, it's time. Our King is here. Our God is calling us. We cannot disappoint our King. Let's destroy anything that stops us from reaching our Monarch.』
All the Dragons once again roared. The guards who have been put in charge of guarding the prison were completely frightened.
At the same time, Nathan who heard Aditya's words understood that there were Dragons who have been imprisoned. Without any hesitation, Nathan rushed towards Maragus Brook city. Right now Nathan was moving to help out his fellow Dragons. As he is a Dragonian, it was his responsibility to help out a fellow Dragon.
Everyone Dragon is a servant of the Dragon Monarch. Even if the Dragons that were locked inside the Prison hadn't seen Aditya or ever heard of the Dragon Monarch, they still worshipped Aditya like their God. Because to Dragons, the Dragon Monarch was their God and they would never betray their God.
