Dragon Monarch System



"Hehe! This is my chance." Hiding in the shadow, a man creepily smiled while staring at Aditya.

Soon, an Assassin whose entire body was covered in black clothes emerged from the shadow. Seeing the Assassin, Aditya felt that this truly was the end of him. There is no way that he can fight the Assassin in his current condition.

"With this, all the money will be mine." The Assassin took out a dagger to end Aditya's life. When the prime minister of the Echo Nexus empire went to put a bounty on Aditya's head, the assassin organization refused to accept the mission even though the prime minister was willing to pay a lot of money.

Without giving any reasons, his mission was refused. But fortunately, one of the assassins who happened to hear everything approached the Prime Minister. Usually, Assassins would receive bounty through the organization. The prime Minister and the Assassin who came to kill Aditya completely ignored the middleman who was the organization and decided to work with each other. Both parties reached an agreement.

Initially, Ewan has been searching for Aditya in the Echo Dominion Empire. He had a feeling that Aditya was going to appear on one of the 4 battlefields. Fortunately for Ewan and unfortunately for Aditya, Aditya came here.

Seeing the target in front of him, Ewan was very happy, knowing that he won't have to waste time searching for the target anymore. However, he did not immediately attack Aditya. He was an assassin. He was not suited for front assault. He just needed one single opportunity to kill the target.

Ewan knew that he was taking a huge risk by taking this mission. Aditya was someone who is capable of killing a Peak 5th-order cultivator. It wouldn't be wrong to say that his strength was in the same league as Peak 5th-order cultivators. And he was a mere beginner 4th-order cultivator. Even Aditya's weakest attack would kill him.

Fortunately, as an Assassin, Ewan had something that made him stand out from others. It was his ability to hide his Mana even from Peak 5th-order cultivators.

Ewan kept waiting. He hoped that Victoria would provide him with one single opportunity that he needed to complete the job.

Fortunately, he did not have to wait long for that opportunity to come. Ewan wasn't expecting Victoria to surpass his expectations and bring Aditya so near death. She had made his job so easy.

'I should thank Victoria.' Ewan grinned staring at Aditya. At first, he thought that this job would be the hardest and toughest job that he had ever taken. But now he felt as if this job was the easiest job he ever had.

'I just need to put this dagger in his head and the job will be done.' Ewan approached Aditya.

While Aditya could do nothing but watch as Ewan walked towards him. He never imagined that he would die at the hands of an assassin.

'Since the start, I felt weak because of losing so much of my blood. I couldn't fight at my 100%. I didn't think that Victoria would have such a powerful trump card under her sleeve. If I had known about this, I wouldn't have held back from the beginning.' Aditya reflected on why he lost his fight against Victoria.

This fight was the first time, Aditya has officially lost a fight. Before today, no matter how tough things became he always managed to make a miracle happen and gain victory over his opponents.

"Your death will bring me countless benefits. Farewell, Dragon King." As Ewan prepared to slash Aditya's throat, suddenly a powerful gust of wind blew. At the same time, a powerful pressure descended on Ewan.

Booom!!!

The pressure was so strong that, Ewan instantly fell to his knees. Aditya looked down at Ewan who now had fallen to his knees and was looking pale. His entire body was trembling. His teeth were clattering. Aditya could see drops of sweat rolling down his forehead.

This made Aditya wonder what could have turned Ewan this frightened. Who had come to save him? 'Is it someone sent by Daxton?' Aditya did notice that Daxton had bought a beginner 5th-order cultivator with him. But he didn't think that beginner 5th-order would be able to arrive this far so soon. Not to mention the fact that Victoria wouldn't allow Ashton to save Aditya.

'What she is doing here?' Ewan felt he had made the biggest mistake of his life. He had made a mistake that could potentially cost him his own life. A mistake so big that it had summoned the Empress.

Even though Ewan has never seen her face.....

Even though he has never seen how she looked.....

Even though he was never seen how beautiful she was, Ewan and every other Assassin that worked for the organization knew her Aura. There was no mistaking this Aura. Only she could have this Aura. Ewan and the other members are taught to remember her Aura to the point that even if the Assassin members were brainwashed, they would still instinctively remember her Aura.

Ewan knew that he has violated the code of the organization by independently accepting the Mission of the client. Every Assassin that worked in that Organization had to follow and live by a certain set of rules. If one rule was broken, that Assassin would be executed. It doesn't matter if the Assassin ran away to another continent or hide under a rock, that organization would still find him and kill him.

The Assassins of the organization are never allowed to independently contact the client or accept a mission from the client. Anyone who violates this rule will be executed.

Ewan contacted, the Prime Minister of Echo Nexus Empire despite knowing the consequences of his actions. The greed of getting so much money blinded him. But now he was regretting it.

A figure flew down the sky. The figure's whole body was shining in gold. To Aditya, he felt as if he was watching a Divine Figure descending from Heaven. The golden radiance from her was so intense that he couldn't see her face or know how she looked. But from the outline of her body, Aditya can guess that she is a breathtaking beauty.

The figure looked at Ewan in silence. The silence was suffocating to Ewan. Judging from her Aura, she was a powerful 5th-order cultivator. She pressured Ewan with her cultivation. Making Ewan feel as if his entire body was being crashed. Right now, Ewan felt like he was an ant who was going to be squeezed to death by her cultivating pressure alone.

"Ewan, you have broken the 37th code of the organization. From now on, you will no longer be a member of the organization. Also, for violating the rule of the organization, The Echo Nexus Empire will be banned from contacting the organization. The organization won't accept any mission from the Echo Nexus Empire. Now you will be punished to death."

Aditya felt as if the woman looking at him when she was speaking about the Echo Nexus Empire. From her words, it was clear that Ewan was sent by the Echo Nexus Emperor.

"Please have some mercy." Ewan put his head on the ground and begged her for his life. But there wasn't any trace of mercy in her eyes. The next second, A giant hand came out under Ewan. The shadow hand grabbed Ewan and dragged him into the portal through which it had come.

Ahhh...!!!!

"Save me....!!!"

Aditya felt as if Ewan was being sent to the Abyss.

After the shadow hand disappeared and as the portal on the ground closed down, she looked at Aditya who was also looking at her.

"This is the first time we are meeting, My so called-Husband." Just as Aditya heard those words, his eyes were full of shock. Before Aditya was having some suspicion about who this woman might be, but now he was 100% sure who she was.

She did not sound too pleased to see Aditya. In fact, it looked as if she was reluctant.

Aditya saw a green bead-sized pill floating toward him. The pill reached his mouth. Knowing that this pill wasn't anything dangerous, Aditya ate it without wasting any more seconds. As the pill reached his stomach, his body began to heal itself. Although this pill wasn't strong as the 5-star pills that Julia made, the effect of the pill was still very good. Aditya could feel his body healing. He was able to slightly move his body with each passing second.

"Since my life is tied to yours through that damned contract, I can't have you die. This also means I can't accept any bounty on your head. How frustrating!" The goddess sounded frustrated and annoyed.

Aditya did not speak. He couldn't speak at that moment. The only thing he could do is watch and listen to her words.

"Since we have met, let me make this clear. Don't ever come to search for me. I might be married to you but I don't see you as my husband. You live your life. I will live mine. Farewell." Knowing that Aditya's life wasn't in danger anymore, soon she disappeared. No one was able to sense her presence. If Aditya hadn't seen her, he also never would have sensed her presence.

Before leaving the goddess made her will crystal clear. She wasn't interested in the contract. She wanted to live her life and wanted Aditya to stay out of it.

'Although I always have been curious about you and wanted to see you at least once. After meeting you, I also feel that our paths should be different. You and I live in completely different worlds. It's impossible for us to be together.' After meeting her, Aditya now wanted to become a 7th-order runemaster as soon as possible so that he can break the contract without harming his or any of the goddess's souls and free them.
