Chapter 515:- Postpone Party
When it was late afternoon, Aditya returned home after he was done. It wasn't that he was done with his work. Rather he had left the remaining work to his subordinates. Aditya had to admit that without Spencer, Nathan, Amber, and others to help him out, his current life would be really busy and he wouldn't get any time for his wives or for himself.
Aditya didn't want to stop but Spencer convinced him...it was more like forcing him to stop. Spencer wanted Aditya to leave the rest to him. His prime Minister told him to leave the rest on his shoulders and enjoy his birthday.
'And I keep forgetting the fact that today is my birthday.....' Aditya thought in his mind. To Aditya, his birthday has never been anything special. He very rarely celebrated his birthdays. His birthdays have been like his normal days.
"Your Majesty, would you like to have a cup of Herbal Tea?" Watson, Aditya's kind and caring Butler asked him.
"No, thank you, Watson. Where are others?" Aditya asked.
"Lady Julia and Lady Alicia asked for you when both of them woke up. After having breakfast both of them went to spend the day with their parents and their families. Lady Alicia asked me to let you know that she will come home before sunset with her parents. As for Lady Alicia, she said she would return in the evenings." Hearing this Aditya nodded his head.
"What about Lara?" Aditya asked but before Watson could answer, Riya answered for him.
"Lara is sleeping." Riya came and sat next to Aditya.
"I did forget to let her drink my blood this morning as I was in a hurry." Aditya felt a little bit guilty. At the same time, he realized that this could not go on much longer. He really hoped Julia would be able to make a cure for Lara. It's not that Aditya hated it when she drank his blood but he didn't want her to be too dependent on him. This illness had caged her. Lara was the only mortal in his wives. If this continues then she will grow old in the next 50 years and then will die. This was something that Aditya wasn't ready to accept. He had come to deeply love this shy yet honest girl who also loved her husband very much. As long as a cure was made, then Lara would be able to cultivate and would be with them forever.
"So what happened?" Riya asked while taking his hand. Though she didn't say it out loud she also wanted to come with Aditya. And from Watson, she has been able to learn a little bit of the story. And knowing that the church dared to insult her husband, she was really furious. For a moment she even thought of heading to to the Northern Frost Dragon Empire to confront the church if Watson hadn't stopped her.
"We would like to listen as well..." Raising his head, Aditya found Sasha and her mother Lilith. Lilith was the one who spoke. Even though Sasha did not speak she clearly looked really interested to know what was going on.
"An ally of mine who was the 7th son of the White Dragon King had been killed along with three of my Dragonians. The church was the one who did it. The church misused the trust it had gained from the people and put all of the blame on the Istarin Empire. Then I..." Aditya was left speechless seeing Sasha sitting on his right. She sat even closer to him than Riya and then held his right hand with both of her arms. Her soft mounds were pressing against his arm.
Seeing this Riya coldly glared at Sasha before doing the same as well. Aditya was left speechless seeing this. On one hand, Sasha was really bold and she was pressing his mounds against his arm. She wasn't even trying to hide it or make it unintentional. Whereas Riya looked slightly bit embarrassed. She wasn't as bold as Sasha but she didn't want to lose to her.
"Oh....my...I" Lilith also wanted to join the fun but Aditya did not want that. Even though there was no denying that he was enjoying every single second of this moment he had other important things to focus on.
Ahem!!!!
Aditya coughed and then continued explaining while ignoring Lilith. Once he was done with his explanation, everyone became serious. Aditya also took this opportunity to tell Riya, Lilith, and Sasha about the mysterious organization and about their history. He told them everything that he knew about the organization. Aditya didn't need to hide anything since he trusted them. Some might ask why Aditya is so easily trusting two Assassins whom he had just met two or three times. The answer was simple. It was their character. Sasha might be really stubborn but she wasn't the type who would sell out people close to her. She was faithful and loyal. Lilith was the same. She might be naughty sometimes........most of the time...but she was someone whom Adiya could trust even with his life. If hadn't trusted them, he wouldn't have bought them to his Dragon palace in the first place.
"I have sent the whole shadow guardians all over the Northern Frost Dragon. I just hope that neither Pope Alaric Nor Simon has left the Northern Frost Dragon otherwise, I will be never able to find them." Aditya said. He was deeply worried about what Simon was planning. Simon said before leaving that they were going to meet very soon. Simon wouldn't have such confidence and courage to face Aditya as he cannot defeat him with his suppressed strength. The last time they fought, Simon had no choice but to escape from Aditya. In the process of escaping, he even lost his arm to Aditya. And now that he has become even stronger unless Simon has a way to remove the restrictions placed on his cultivation rank by the natural law of this world, he can never hope to defeat him.
'Not to brag or anything, even 101 Peak 5th-order cultivators aren't enough to even put a fight against me. This only means that he is planning something.....something really big.' Aditya thought.
"I can help you out." Sasha broke the heavy silence in the living room. Watson had long left them alone. There weren't any servants or maids around as well.
"How?" Riya asked in confusion. She understood that Alicia had vast connections and through those connections, collecting information or spreading propaganda was extremely easy for her. The news of the church's evil deeds spread throughout the whole Northern Frost Dragon even faster due to Alicia's Seekers of Impurity guild that was everywhere within this continent. But how can Sasha help Aditya find Simon and Pope Alaric?
"I can will my organization." Sasha had inherited the organization from her mother.
"No, Sasha, sadly even that won't work."
"Because I am sure that Simon and Pope Alaric won't just walk around especially when the whole Empire knows Pope Alaric and has seen his face. I am sure both of them will put a disguise and that means it is impossible to find them in a short period of time. Unless they decide to reveal themselves, we can't find them."
While they were talking, Watson came carrying a tray of snacks and pastries for everyone. As Watson arrived, Aditya turned to Watson and said. "Watson, can you please postpone tonight's party?" Hearing this everyone was surprised.
Seeing their surprised faces, Aditya decided to explain. "Before this matter is fully reserved, I won't feel relieved much less relaxed." Simon was a powerful man with a powerful organization backing him. Aditya felt uneasy seeing him. He was constantly having this gut feeling that something really bad was going to happen in his new territory. So he decided to postpone the birthday party and held it for some other time.
Once Aditya explained his reasoning, Watson nodded his head. Everyone else also understood. "Your Majesty, I will write letters to all of the guests and inform them about this."
"Thank you, Watson. And also sorry for the trouble." Aditya helplessly smiled as he knew that he had given Watson a lot of work. Writing letters for all of the guests was going to take a long time.
"Your Majesty, it's always been my honor to serve your needs and to follow your orders."
Hearing this Aditya smiled. "I will personally write letters to my allies and to Julia and Alicia's parents while explaining the situation." It would be only fair if Aditya wrote the letters himself to show his sincerity and also to show how serious this matter was. Aditya hoped that one week would be more than enough to deal with this matter.
Watson also understood this. With a bow, Watson left them alone.
