Dragon Monarch System

『 Mana Reservoir Stone 』

『 Rank - Beginner 5th-star (☆☆☆☆☆) 』

『 Description - The Mana Reservoir Stone is a very mysterious and very unique stone. The stone is said to have come from another Realm. The first user of the Stone was 9 million years ago. Later the Mana Reservoir Stone was found around 1200 years ago.

When the ring is filled with Mana, the ring becomes white. When the Mana is drained from the ring, the ring color turns black.』

『 Function 1 - "Mana Storage"- The Mana Reservoir Stone could store up to [1200+] Mana. The stored Mana can be used by the user.』

『 Function 2 - "Mana Absorption"- Once the ring turns black, the ring starts absorbing Mana from the surrounding atmosphere.』

"Not bad....!!!" Aditya was very satisfied with what he had created. He had turned this ring into a Beginner 5th-star artifact. 5th-star artifacts were extremely rare. These kinds of artifacts or treasures were so rare that many times, they ended up causing wars between small Kingdoms and Dynasties.

'With his artifact, I have [7,852+] Mana. Mana is the last thing that I would need to worry about. But what should I do about my other stats?' Given the stage that Aditya was currently in, eating 3-star magic fruits will no longer benefit (increase his other stats in any way) him in any way.

'With Agility, I can pretty much fight anyone in Peak's 5th-order realm. But when it comes to my other stats such as Strength, Stamina, and Health, my stats are really low.' Aditya began to rub his chin and think of a way to increase his these three stats.

'Due to low stamina, I can't always fight at high intensity.' This was something that Aditya had noticed in his battle with Harrison.

When he used his full speed which included all the boosts that he received from his Passive skills, his Mythical Classes, and his artifacts, Aditya would drain his stamina at a rapid speed.

Stamina was basically the energy that he had to move his body. Even walking a step consumed even a tiny bit of stamina. The only reason Aditya was able to keep fighting for as long as 10 to 15 minutes was because of the boosts that his other stats received from the activation of 'Soul Inferno Ascension' and 'Inferno Overdrive' skills.

However, these solutions were not permanent solutions. What Aditya wanted was to find a way to permanently increase his Stamina, Health, and Strength.

'Let's worry about this later. Now, let's get some work done....!!!' Just as Aditya picked up a document to read, he suddenly sensed something that made him frown.

The Dragon Palace allowed Aditya to teleport anywhere within a 25 Km radius of the Dragon Palace. Because of this, it wasn't hard for him to detect any foreign powerful presence in the capital of the Istarin Empire.

Knock!!! Knock!!!

"Your Majesty, may I come in?" Watson knocked on the door but he got no response from his master.

"What's weird!!!" Watson could not sense if Aditya was in his office or not. This was because all the rooms in the Istarin Empire had been sealed. This was done for the sake of privacy otherwise, everyone would be able to know what one was doing in his room.

Watson kept waiting. After 10 seconds, he knocked again but since he did not get any response, he entered inside only to find that there was no one else in the office.

"Where did His Majesty go?" There was no way for Watson to know that.

Meanwhile, Aditya had teleported to the entrance of the Dragon Palace.

"Did you also sense that presence?" Aditya asked Greenwood who was the guardian of the Dragon Palace. After staying in the Dragon Palace for so long, now Greenwood's cultivation had reached Peak 5th-order.

Greenwood was a Dragon Warrior. Unlike Dragonians, he has been a wild Dragon before submitting himself to Aditya. Then he evolved into a Dragon Warrior.

"I did!!! It looks like they are heading in this direction. Should I attack them?" Greenwood asked for Aditya's permission.

Aditya shook his head. "No need. Let them come. It's not confirmed that they are our enemy. Maybe they are coming here for a visit." There was no need to be cautious. Even if they turned out to be enemies of the Istarin Empire, Aditya could wipe them out within a single second. Even Greenwood would be more than enough to take them out.

Scene change______

"Why have we come to such a backward place?" Tiffany Sterling arrogantly said. She had a look of disgust and disdain.

Tiffany was in her early 30s. She had long, glossy blonde hair.

"Tiffany, don't be rude," Derek said while pushing his glasses. Derek Blackwood was a fellow member of the same sect.

Derek was in his late 20s, with slicked-back dark hair and piercing gray eyes. He had dressed in an expensive dark green tailored suit. He

"Our Senior must have a very good reason for bringing us here." Though he himself could not understand why they were even brought to a place like this. In his opinion, the world outside of the Main Continent was nothing but a trashy place.

The main continent was way bigger and also had many times more resources than all the resources in the six continents combined. Just like his fellow sect member Tiffany, Derek was also kind of disgusted coming to a place like this.

But unlike Tiffany who was greedy, Derek was very smart. He knew that the sect must have a very good reason for sending them here. Unlike Tiffany who was impatient, Derek was more patient and did not bother their senior.

'What was the name of this Empire again...? Let's see....!!!' After thinking for a while, Derek finally remembered the name of this Empire and the name of the Emperor.

'The Istarin Empire and the Dragon Monarch....!!!'

'The Dragon Monarch.....huh? He might be known as the Monarch in the six continents but in the Main continent, he is nothing but an ant that could be destroyed at any given second. Even my personal butler is stronger than him.' Derek thought in his mind.

'Let's meet this King. If I like this character then maybe I will graciously take him under my wing and offer him some valuable pieces of advice.' Derek thought with a small smile on his face.

'Maybe, it wouldn't hurt if I became the Emperor of this Empire in this place and made that King serve me instead.' Though the title of King or Emperor was meaningless in the Main continent.

"Derek is right. Tiffany, you shouldn't underestimate this place. From what I have heard, not so long ago, this place used to be nothing but a very small city. The King of this Land is a very capable man." Hearing this the other four were surprised.

Mia Hunter was the senior. She had been directly ordered by the Elder of their sect to come to the Istarin Empire.

"I can sense a few powerful presence here." Mia had a serious look on her face.

'Elder had promised me that as long as I get the Dragon Grass from the Istarin Empire, I will have enough merit points to finally become a core discipline of the sect.' This was the reason why Mia had come to the Istarin Empire.

"Let's go...!!" The five of them slowly walked towards Dragon Palace.

"I don't understand why the King of this place would give the dragon grass to us?" Unlike other fellow members of the sect, Blake knew a little bit about Dragon Grass and the massive chaos that had taken place as a result of it. He knew that the King was not a weak person. Everything would end up in a big fight. Though he was sure that they would win, even if a fight were to break out.

Bleak had recently joined this sect. He along with Tiffany, Derek, and Evan were the outer members of their sect.

Blake was in his early 20s, with a lean build and casually styled blond hair.

"He will otherwise, I wouldn't mind destroying everything in this place." Evan Cross replied arrogantly. He had a big grin on his face.

The new visitors had attracted a lot of attention from the public and from the guards. Even if Aditya and Greenwood hadn't noticed, the news already would have reached the ears of the Prime Minister, Spencer.

Neither of them were trying to hide their cultivation. Anyone could tell that they were super strong. Hence, everyone stayed out of their path and did not dare to look too much at them.

"What is this?" Standing in front of the Dragon Palace, all of them had a look of awe and admiration. They had never seen a structure that was as grand and beautiful as this.

Seeing such a beautiful-looking Palace, Tiffany had a greedy look on her face. 'I want this Palace.' Tiffany had always loved luxurious things. She wanted to add the Dragon Palace to her collection.

"Call the King of this place?" Seeing all the guards, Mia asked to meet the King of this place.
