Chapter 89: Impulsive
"Don’t issue any orders to chase them down. We don’t know what the empire is actually planning at the moment. Immediately retreat and convey the information about what is currently happening within the border area to His Majesty."
The commander and his troops decided to retreat after listening to the orders given to them by Athena. Moreover, the soldiers who were in proximity to that place felt very relieved after regaining their freedom when they felt the terrifying pressure from Lucien disappear. It was the first time the soldiers had felt the incredibly terrifying power of their princess’s future husband strike fear into them.
For now, every soldier in the Dragonia Kingdom’s army had witnessed the true power of their future king. There was no reason for the soldiers not to completely submit to Lucien’s orders. Therefore, the soldiers and the commander sighed as they moved away from where Lucien and the others were.
"That human boy is much stronger than expected. His Majesty was not wrong in choosing that boy as the future husband of Princess Athena." Praise after praise came out of the commander’s mouth. In the commander’s entire life, this was the first time he had seen a young human successfully defeat Dragon Emperor-stage dragons.
Any dragon that had reached the Dragon Emperor stage would be considered a powerhouse throughout the world. They were beings who could tear apart the sky and overturn mountains with a single claw. That alone was enough for every living being in the entire world to consider Dragon Emperor-stage dragons to be incredibly powerful beings.
But in front of Lucien, dragons at the Dragon Emperor stage were no different from baby dragons that he could kill at any time. However, the strength of the three Dragon Emperor-stage dragons was only at the initial layer of the Dragon Emperor stage. Not all Dragon Emperor-stage dragons were equal in strength.
The presence of Lucius was one example of the reason why he was able to win against Dragon Overlord-stage dragons. Lucius’s current strength had reached the peak of the Dragon Emperor stage. It’s just that Lucius currently had absolutely no intention of breaking through in the near future.
The foundation of strength was one of the reasons why Lucius decided not to make his breakthrough to the Dragon Overlord stage. From the start, Lucius could easily break through to the Dragon Overlord stage any time he wanted. Therefore, among all Dragon Emperor-stage dragons, Lucius was the strongest of them all.
There were also figures like Elize who could easily defeat dragons above her level. Most of the dragons that Elize had defeated when she faced various dragons in the empire were at the peak layer of the Dragon Emperor stage. Even though Elize was overwhelmed while fighting against the powerful dragons of the empire, she did not feel any pressure at all when facing Dragon Emperor-stage guards.
Since she was young, Elize had faced pressure several times from enemies far stronger than Dragon Emperor-stage dragons. It was a happy past in Elize’s eyes. For some reason, the memories of Elize training by her master’s side came flooding back into her mind.
The strength previously shown by Lucien gave her a feeling of longing for the figure of Elize’s only master. There was only one person in this world who could train Elize until she became much stronger than dragons of her age, and that was Elize’s master. She was a figure no weaker than a Dragon Supreme-stage dragon.
Above the Dragon Overlord stage or Lord Warrior stage was the Dragon Supreme stage or Ancient Warrior stage. They were existences that had surpassed the common sense of living beings throughout the world. Whenever a Dragon Supreme-stage existence appeared in the world, they would be able to turn the situation around even if they had to face the military might of a large country.
The strongest powerhouses in the entire world were currently experts at the Ancient Warrior stage, or what could also be called the Dragon Supreme stage. There were only dozens of Dragon Supreme-stage dragons occupying each region of the Dragon Realm. But in the human world, the strength of Ancient Warrior-stage experts was far above that of Dragon Supreme-stage dragons.
The Human race was a race that could reproduce in large numbers. There were countless powerful experts born within the Life Continent. One of the reasons why the Dragon race was considered the strongest species in the entire world was because of their strength and endurance, which exceeded the common sense of most species.
But the Human race was different from every other race that existed throughout the world. The Human race could adapt to and learn everything that existed throughout the world. Since ancient times, the Human race had been the only race that had managed to survive every attack launched by powerful races.
This was the reason why the Human race had been able to develop into a race that stood on equal footing with the Dragon race and the Giant race. Since the population of the Human race surpassed that of every other living being on the four continents, they could be considered one of the three strongest races in the world.

"Honey, you are too possessive when it comes to protecting us. It wouldn’t be good if you made our troops afraid whenever they faced us."
A small snort involuntarily came out of my mouth. I knew that I was too possessive when it came to keeping my women away from other men. But as the future husband of the future Dragon Queen, I had to behave properly when dealing with troops from the Dragonia Kingdom.
"Sorry. This was my mistake. For now, I will not make the same mistake again. After all, they are also my future subordinates."
For some reason, soft laughter came out of Athena’s and Elize’s mouths. In their entire lives, this was the first time they had seen a man be so careful in front of other people. Even though Elize and Athena considered me a protective man, they felt a sense of joy when they discovered how worried their man was about them.
"Ha ha~. Our Cien turns out to be much more impulsive than one could imagine. You acted without thinking first. Luckily, our troops don’t seem to mind the attitude you showed at all."
"That’s right. Next time, you should act like a ruler in front of the soldiers. Maintaining relationships with your potential subordinates is much better than creating unnecessary hostility."
Elize and Athena began giving me advice after advice. For the first time, I couldn’t do whatever I wanted while listening to every lecture Elize and Athena gave me. Instead, I decided to stay where I was and listen to all the advice they gave me.
"I understand..."
"As long as you understand, it’s not a big deal at all. Remember this, my disciple. Only by forming strong bonds can we win a battle that would otherwise be impossible for us to win."
There were no words that could come out of my mouth as I listened to all the advice Elize gave me. Creating good relationships with other people was not a wrong choice at all. However, having strong ties with subordinates was one way for someone to continue moving forward.
