Dragon Monarch System

chapter-136
The movement of such a massive army will naturally gain the attraction of the whole eastern region. Every other faction that was not involved neither with the Istarin Kingdom nor with the Nepoca Kingdom had their eyes on the war. No one, literally not even a single person in the eastern region of the continent believed that the Istarin Kingdom can come out of this fight unless some external factor helps them. They doubted that even if the Nyland Land and the Thera Kingdom send all of their forces to help the Istarin Kingdom, it will still not be enough.
The army of one million and two hundred thousand was currently in the Nepoca Kingdom. The army was going to attack the Eastcliff region which previously belonged to the Nepoca Kingdom. Under the pressure of King Vega and Aditya, Ethan had no choice but to give up a large chunk of his territory to the Istarin Kingdom.
Everyone regardless of their social status or their class or their race knew that the Eastcliff region is going to become the center of the war. Obviously, before the army came, the civilians started evacuating to the Vrane city which was ruled by Duke Sarlus Marvin, one of Aditya's most trusted men. The distance between the Eastcliff region and Vrane city was big. It would take more than 7 days of walking to reach Vrane city.
Aditya had no choice let the public use the teleportation array to take refuge in the Vrane city. Knowing that a large population was going to head to the Vrane city, Aditya had sent large amounts of food, water, and tents for the people. The city obviously wasn't big enough to give a home to hundreds of thousand. Instead, Aditya had no choice but to let the migrated people stay outside the city. Of course, the civilian was going to be given three meals per day with water and shelter.
The process of sending more than one hundred thousand people to Vrane city was anything but easy. One night before King Vega was about to die, Aditya's spies found that a big army was moving toward the Nepoca Kingdom. He instantly knew what the enemy was aiming for. They had planned on starting with the Eastcliff region. After taking over the Eastcliff region, they wanted to take over the Vrane city under Duke Sarlus and then the capital; the Azure city.Of course, Aditya wasn't going to allow that to happen. The very same night, he marched all of his troops. to the Eastcliff region. Aditya also ordered Duke Sarlus, Duke Zayne, and other nobles to send their armies through teleportation arrays. As for how his nobles will defend their territory if in case the Nyland Kingdom decides to attack, for that very reason Aditya had sent 20 4th-order wild dragons and Wyverns combined.
"Reporting, Your Majesty by now almost 80% of the civilians living in the Eastcliff was been evacuated." Aditya nodded while looking at the map of the Eastcliff region. The Eastcliff region had a population of over 140,000. However, the region did not have any major big cities. Rather the region had over 3 newly formed cities and 11 towns and many; almost thousands of scattered villages.
Sigh!
"If possible I would have liked to evacuate 100% of the civilians." The people that lived in Aditya's kingdom were under his protection. It was his duty as the King to protect and also provide for his people.
"Your Majesty, it not like we could do anything about it. We couldn't have evacuated more than one hundred thousand people if you had not made a teleportation array. The main problem is that we could not evacuate the people living in the villages. It was impossible for the army to go to every village in the Eastcliff region and bring them here to evacuate within this short time." Aditya nodded his head with a helpless smile.
Currently, Aditya and most of his troops were waiting in Graycott city. When Aditya took over the Eastcliff region, he planted the seeds to turn Graycott city into one of the major cities of the Istarin Kingdom. Adding Graycott city to the list of 11 major cities of the Istarin Kingdom.
He expanded the size of Graycott city almost by 4 times. To attract more people he had to make some special rules and reforms for this city. Not only that, Aditya even placed an army of 10,000 to guard and also maintain the order of the city. Over the last 15 days, Aditya was busy building defensive barriers and teleportation arrays for the 11 major cities.As soon as he came to Graycott city, he sent out an announcement to his people to evacuate. While his troops helped in bringing people from faraway places, Aditya managed to build a teleportation array.
"I just hope we can keep the casualties number minimum." In a war, it was inevitable that people from both sides are going to die. Especially in these kinds of wars, where the number of soldiers that were going to participate in this war is almost 1.5 million. Regardless of which side won the war, a huge number of troops were going to die today.
"You have done everything in your power to help the people. During these 15 days, you worked day and night to build protective barriers for your people. I just hope that this war ends soon so that you can take some rest." The one who spoke these words was obviously the Goddess of alchemy.
Julia returned once she heard that another war is going to happen. Even when Aditya and others tried to pursue her to stay back and not come, the stubborn goddess came anyway. Right after she returned, she healed the crippled hearts of the slaves Aditya previously bought. She also started making various kinds of pills with the high-quality ingredients that she bought with her.
Now that Aditya had built teleportation arrays, traveling has been very easy for her. If she needs any materials, she can just go back and buy them from there. Not only that, but when Julia returned, Adam made sure to give his son-in-law and his daughter tons of alchemy resources. With these resources, it wouldn't be hard for Julia to make at least 100,000 2-star healing pills.
Right now Aditya, his generals, Watson, Duke Sarlus, Duke Zayne, Alicia, and Julia were having a meeting in a room.
Aditya, Watson, Duke Sarlus, and Duke Zayne all helplessly smiled hearing the princess's words. Obviously, the princess did not know that the real paperwork is going to start once this war ends. Even if Aditya wanted to take a rest, he simply couldn't. "Don't worry, I am taking good care of my health."
Aditya was lying of course. Watson knew it very well. After all, his first duty was to serve his master. If Aditya was still a normal human from the earth, then his body already would have collapsed from working day and night without taking any rest. Ever since he had the nightmare of the future, he stopped sleeping. While during day time Aditya went through paper works, at night time he was busy with enchanting armor and weapons with runes. These armor and weapons were going to be used by his generals and his dragonians.
"Can you guys stop flirting? We're having an important meeting here." To the eyes of others, it looked like Julia and Aditya were being romantic. Since the majority of the members sitting in this room were single, they felt sour feeling the King openly being romantic.
"Hmph! I was just worried about Aditya. By the way, who invited you to this meeting?" Others also had the same question. Who was this woman and why did the king allow her to attend this meeting? As far as they can remember this woman wasn't a part of the Istarin Kingdom.
"Her name is Alicia. She is the guild leader of Seeker of Impurity." Aditya explained while looking at the map.
"What she is the owner and also the founder of the Seeker of the Impurity guild?" Duke Sarlus and Zayne had a shocked reaction. As for Aditya's generals, only Amber had met seen her in the past when Alicia had come to meet Aditya. At that time, Amber only assumed that she was a normal merchant or something like that. She wasn't even that interested in knowing the identity of the woman who covered her face with a veil all the time.
"I don't want anything that we have discussed in this room to be heard by others. The identity of the guild leader is also a top secret. I only that you all as I have come to trust you." Everyone except for Julia and Watson seriously nodded their heads.
Only Julia was rolling her eyes. She looked at Alicia who was sitting next to her and wondered what reaction they will have if they learn that she is the goddess of alchemy wile this woman who hides her face under a veil is the goddess of wealth.
Really Thank you very much to all those who sends support with valuable golden tickets. I hope we can keep it up!!!
