Dragon Monarch System
chapter-406

"Today, esteemed guests, I am honored to make a momentous announcement," the Emperor declared, his voice resonating throughout the grand hall. The gathered nobles, caught off guard by the unexpected revelation, couldn't contain their excitement. The notion of the Emperor having not one, but four fiances, had been shrouded in utmost secrecy, known only to a select few who resided within the Dragon Palace or the revered Old Palace nestled at the heart of Azure City.

"With great pleasure, I shall introduce my first fiance, a lady of unparalleled beauty and noble lineage, Princess Julia Onard of the esteemed Onard Noble House," the Emperor proclaimed, his words enveloping the room. The reaction was palpable, evident in the widened eyes and stunned expressions of the nobles, their disbelief laid bare for all to see.

Whispers rippled through the assembly, for the mention of the name Julia Onard carried great weight. She was no ordinary lady, but rather the illustrious Goddess of Alchemy, renowned throughout the continent for her ethereal allure and unmatched mastery of the alchemical arts. The Onard household had long been the gathering place for those in dire need of alchemical remedies, with people queuing for hours, hoping to catch a glimpse of the goddess herself and beseech her aid.

Now, the revelation that the Emperor had captured the heart of this revered deity sent shockwaves through the room. The nobles were acutely aware that the goddess's beauty surpassed any mortal comparison, while her alchemical prowess far outshone even the most brilliant minds in the field. Julia's mere presence commanded the desires of men across the continent, her hand in marriage a symbol of ultimate achievement, the pinnacle of their dreams.

Yet, here stood their Emperor, a living embodiment of their aspirations, having achieved what others only dared fantasize about. The nobles marveled at his extraordinary fortune, recognizing the rarity and significance of this union.

In the wake of this astonishing revelation, the nobles' astonishment mingled with admiration, their thoughts racing to comprehend the implications of this momentous occasion. Conversations buzzed with a newfound fervor, as whispers and murmurs filled the air, echoing the shared sentiment of awe and admiration for their Emperor's remarkable accomplishment. The atmosphere crackled with anticipation, as everyone eagerly awaited the introduction of the remaining fiances, fully aware that the revelation to come would be nothing short of extraordinary.

'At this point, what am I even doing with my life and what is the point of it all?'

'It's over. There is no turning back now. It's official.'

'The Emperor, indeed, stands as a man of unparalleled fortune, for the celestial forces have conspired to bestow upon him an enviable fate, one that elicits admiration and marvel from all who bear witness to the extraordinary tapestry of his existence.'

While some noble instantly felt depressed hearing this. Some on the other hand just accepted this fact. After all, Aditya was the best man Julia could ever find. Aditya took the Istarin Empire from a 2nd-tier Kingdom to a 5-tier Empire. In less than a year, he managed to expand the Empire in every direction. The current Empire had territories in all four regions of the Continent. The Emperor was also very handsome looking and also the most powerful 5th-order cultivator on the Planet. He was also the King of all Dragons. He is the Dragon Monarch. He ruled over all Dragons. No King Emperor or Man on this continent can compare to Aditya.

Just like how all noblemen dreamed of marrying one of the goddesses and saw it as their peak ultimate dream, many noblewomen dreamed of becoming Aditya's Wife and the Empress of the Istarin Empire. Becoming Aditya's wife would mean that they would enjoy endless wealth, power, status, respect, and everything that a noble could ever wish for in their lives.

As the news of the Emperor's engagement spread among the gathered nobles, a mix of emotions swept through the crowd. Some felt a sense of disappointment, realizing their own unattainable dreams, while others gracefully accepted the reality before them. They understood that Aditya, a remarkable man in every sense, was the perfect match for Julia, the renowned Goddess of Alchemy.

Aditya, driven by ambition and wisdom, had overseen a remarkable transformation of the Istarin Empire. In a short span of time, he had elevated the empire from a second-tier kingdom to a prominent five-tier power. His bold vision knew no limits, as he skillfully expanded the empire's territories in all directions, firmly establishing their presence across the vast continent. These remarkable achievements showcased his strategic brilliance and earned him widespread admiration.

However, Aditya's greatness surpassed mere political prowess and territorial conquests. His strikingly handsome appearance possessed an otherworldly charm that enchanted all who beheld him. With his well-defined features and an undeniable air of majesty, he embodied the epitome of irresistible attractiveness, captivating the admiration and fascination of people of all genders.

However, it wasn't just his good looks that made him respected and admired, but also his immense power. Aditya was incredibly strong, standing at the top of martial skill as a fifth-order cultivator—a rare achievement attained only by the most exceptional practitioners. But his influence didn't end there, as he also held the prestigious title of the Dragon Monarch, commanding all dragons with an authority that surpassed any king, emperor, or person on the entire continent. His unmatched strength inspired awe and reverence, solidifying his reputation as an unstoppable force.

Amidst the grandeur of the royal banquet, a symphony of hushed conversations enveloped the noblewomen, their voices laden with a blend of admiration and yearning. As they gathered in intimate clusters, their eyes flickered with a mixture of awe and envy, their hearts alight with a fervent desire to be chosen as Aditya's esteemed consort, the illustrious Empress of the revered Istarin Empire. To be bestowed with such an extraordinary honor would unfurl a path paved with opulence, influence, and the veneration of society—a realm where they could luxuriate in the embrace of untold riches, wield the scepter of authority, and revel in the adulation that naturally accompanies an exalted position.

"I cannot help but imagine the splendors that would befall the chosen one," murmured Lady Isabella, her eyes shimmering with a mixture of wonder and longing. "To be draped in silks spun from the finest threads, adorned with jewels that rival the stars themselves—such a life would be nothing short of a fairytale dream."

Her companion, Lady Victoria, leaned in closer, her voice filled with a whisper of anticipation. "And imagine the power that would be at her fingertips. With a mere gesture, the mightiest of nobles would bend to her will, and her voice would resonate through the corridors of the empire, shaping the course of history itself."

As their words intertwined with the air, Lady Amelia, a young and starry-eyed noblewoman, interjected with a sigh. "Oh, to be the one to capture the Emperor's heart, to become the center of his world. It would be the pinnacle of fulfillment, the realization of all our dreams within the realm of nobility."

Nods of agreement rippled through the small gathering, each lady harboring her own aspirations, her own secret fantasies of ascending to such heights. Their gazes lingered on Aditya, a figure of irresistible charisma and unparalleled might, as they envisioned themselves as the fortunate recipient of his affection and devotion.

In these whispered conversations, the noblewomen discovered solace and companionship, united in their shared yearning for a life intertwined with the extraordinary destiny that awaited the chosen one. For within the depths of their hearts, they knew that becoming Aditya's cherished partner would grant them a coveted place in the annals of history, forever etching their names among the luminaries of noble society.

In the midst of emotions and whispered longings, the royal banquet buzzed with a blend of admiration, jealousy, and silent acceptance. The impact of this announcement weighed heavily on the hearts of those gathered, reshaping their dreams and reshuffling the threads of their ambitions.

Previously, Aditya had been deeply afraid of revealing his engagement to the esteemed goddess of Alchemy. He dreaded the potential backlash from her devoted followers and fervent admirers, knowing that his life could be in grave danger if his connection to her was exposed. However, as time went on and Aditya ascended to unprecedented levels of power and influence, his once-prevailing fears dissolved, replaced by an unwavering confidence. He had reached a pinnacle of invulnerability where the concerns of anyone, from this continent or the farthest reaches of the other five continents, held no sway over him.

With an imposing presence befitting his status as an emperor, Aditya addressed the gathered assembly, his voice brimming with authority, "Ladies and gentlemen, I am thrilled to introduce my second fiancée, the esteemed Princess of the Ethereal Empire, Alicia Osburn. She is revered as the goddess of Wealth." His words resonated through the grand hall, stirring a collective reaction among the assembled nobles. Some struggled to maintain their composure, their legs feeling unsteady beneath them, while others felt as though they had stumbled upon a bewitching illusion. A profound disbelief gripped their hearts, almost compelling them to exclaim in astonishment. However, they wisely suppressed their urge, fully aware of the dire consequences that awaited anyone who dared disrupt the solemnity of the moment.

Indeed, to raise one's voice in defiance before the Emperor, the embodiment of power and sovereignty, would be the epitome of foolishness. Such audacity would surely incur the wrath of Aditya, a force of nature capable of reducing the defiant to nothingness. Thus, faced with this overwhelming revelation, the assembled nobles opted for silence, understanding that preserving their own well-being was the wisest course of action.

As Aditya's words hung in the air, a deep silence enveloped the gathered nobility, broken only by soft gasps and murmurs that escaped the stunned onlookers. Emotions surged within their hearts, revealing their vulnerability.

Lady Evelyn, once filled with joy, now showed her shock by clasping her hand to her chest, her eyes widening in disbelief. "The goddess of Wealth? How is this possible?" she exclaimed, her voice trembling with a mix of surprise and envy.

Lord Henry, known for his wit and sharp tongue, struggled to find words, his face contorting with a blend of resentment and sadness. "To think she, the epitome of wealth, will rise to such heights with Aditya," he muttered under his breath, unable to hide the bitterness in his voice.

Lady Charlotte, her delicate features now touched by a veil of sadness, lowered her gaze, burdened by unfulfilled desires. "Oh, how I wished it were me," she whispered, her voice tinged with sorrow and envy.

Similar sentiments filled the room, as the nobles wrestled with their unrequited longings. Some attempted to conceal their disappointment behind forced smiles and feigned congratulations, while others sought solace in whispered conversations that betrayed their hidden sorrows.

"Do you see how fate can be cruel?" Lady Evelyn confided in her confidante, her voice tinged with desolation. "To think Alicia, blessed with wealth and beauty, has won Aditya's heart. It feels like the gods conspired against us."

Lady Charlotte, barely audible, confided in a trusted companion, her eyes clouded by a mix of sadness and envy. "I had hoped my own charms would capture Aditya's attention. Alas, my dreams were in vain. Witnessing Alicia, the goddess of Wealth, ascend to such heights, is a bitter pill to swallow."

And so, the noble figures, once full of dreams and aspirations, found themselves shrouded in melancholy. Their hearts grappled with the reality that Aditya's affections were now bestowed upon Alicia Osburn, the goddess of Wealth. Though they tried to hide their disappointment, the shadows of jealousy and unfulfilled desires danced behind their somber gazes, quietly echoing the unspoken whispers of longing that resonated within their noble souls.

Before tomorrow ends, I really hope we can reach the 600 golden tickets mark. For each 100 golden tickets one chapter of 2000+ words by tomorrow itself.

This is day before yesterday's pending chapter. I will try to upload two chapters for yesterday as well. Yesterday I was too tired to write. And it was Eid.

On that Occasion I would also like to wish all the Muslim readers
