Dragon Monarch System
chapter-732

"How you're here?" "How am I here? It's a long story." Aditya replied with a smile. "But it all starts with a prisoner named Silas." Hearing the name, Felix widened his eyes. Obviously, he knows who Silas is. Originally, Felix planned to frame Silas. The plan was to make the Istarin Emperor believe that Silas was responsible for the explosion at the marketplace. This whole explosion was purposely done to divert Aditya's attention and make him believe that Silas was behind this. This was part of their original plan, which they had to change when Felix learned that Aditya didn't take the bait. "You see, Silas's men accidentally stumbled upon this place. They saw you leaving this place with your Homunculus." Something like this happened a few months ago. At that time, Felix was able to capture those people and kill them in time. But it seems they managed to send this information to Silas, and Silas must have told Aditya about it. 'That was a mistake. I should have used my Homunculus to learn more about this group.' Felix felt regret. If he had paid a little bit of attention to this matter, then he wouldn't have lost today. For the last few months, Felix's attention was on the Istarin Empire. He had been researching the military capabilities of the Empire and was busy refining his plan to combat the Istarin Empire.

"You regret it, don't you.....!!!" Aditya could tell this from Felix's expression. "Even without Silas's information, my wives Julia and Riya traced the connection between this Rune Array and your Homunculus to locate you. So either way, your defeat was inevitable." Hearing this, Felix gritted his teeth in anger. 'I have spent thousands upon thousands of years building myself.' 'How many lives did I take to reach this point?'

'How many sacrifices have I made to gain power?'

'But all of that was wasted within 30 minutes.'

'Everything that I worked hard to build over the thousands of years was destroyed in less than 30 minutes. Now I have nothing. Even if I defeat him, there is no way that I can climb back to the top of the mountain anymore. This is where it all ends.'

'In the end, I was never able to gain absolute power. I was never able to fulfill my lifelong goal of becoming the most influential man in this whole world.' 'In the end, I feel like my whole life has been meaningless.' Now that Felix was looking back, he truly had no one. He was all alone. Without his Homunculus, he was nothing. "Tell me, how would you like to die?" Aditya asked. "I can burn you to ashes with my Crimson Flames. I can cut you into small pieces and feed them to dogs."

The smile on Aditya's face disappeared. His eyes became cold and sharp. "Or I can publicly humiliate you and then have you executed in front of the public." Felix did not reply. He looked at Aditya without changing his expression. He tried to put on a brave face, but unlucky for him, Aditya could hear his super fast heartbeat.

"You have betrayed my trust." Aditya stood up from Silas's throne. As soon as he stood up, the throne began to melt. Tap...!!

Aditya took a step forward, Felix. "You know what I hate more than anything else in this world.....!!"

Tap...!!

Aditya took another step, keeping his hands behind his back.

At the same time, Felix took a step back. Although he didn't look afraid he was nervously sweating. His heart was beating even faster now. "I hate betrayers. I hate people who stab me in the back." At the same time, Aditya's eyes turned red. The shape of his pupils changed from round to vertical slits. Tap...!!

"You not only betrayed me but also have played with my trust." Seeing Aditya taking another step forward, Felix continued stepping back. Felix gritted his teeth before he took out a unique object. This object looked like a three-dimensional star-like structure formed by the intersection of two equilateral triangles, one normal and one inverted. The triangles have a dark blue metallic finish, and their equal sides create a symmetrical, geometric design that resembles a complex, interlocking star or a six-pointed star with a hollow center.

"I assume this is the artifact that helped you create the Homunculus." Aditya wasn't afraid. Even if he summoned ten million of Homunculus, he was still going to die today. "Aditya, I won't apologize for what I have done. I don't have a shred of regret." "I have committed worse things in my long life." "But, even if you kill you, I won't let this valuable artifact fall in your hands." With his strength, Felix easily destroyed the artifact into many small pieces. However, from the start to the end, Aditya did not even move. He just folded his hands on his chest and watched everything with interest. "Stupid, I have no interest in such an artifact. I don't need to."

"I can create Dragons. I am the Dragon Monarch. What kind of Monarch I would be if I needed to use Homunculus to increase the size of my army." Aditya's pride as the Dragon Monarch won't allow him to ever use this artifact. He was also planning to destroy this artifact along with everything here. Felix was stunned hearing Aditya's words. But he could feel Aditya's arrogance in his words. In fact, Aditya was looking down on this 5-star artifact and himself for using it. "You're truly different, Aditya." In the end, despite being afraid, Felix cannot stop admiring this man. He was truly what Felix couldn't become. Felix took out a pill from his storage ring and then looked at Aditya. "This is the difference between you and me."

"In the end, you're a False King. But I am a True King."

"I see...!!" Felix closed his eyes for a second as if accepting Aditya's words. At the same time, Aditya noticed that his heart had calmed down significantly. He was very calm at this moment. Looking at the blue pill on his right palm, Felix chuckled and said. "Never thought I would use this pill on myself. Life can be full of unexpected surprises." Felix ate the pill. "I may have lost but I am not going to die in your hands." Felix closed his eyes and waited for death to take him. But Aditya's eyes turned very cold seeing this. Swoosh.....!!!

Leaving a trail of dust behind, Aditya arrived in front of Felix. "You don't deserve a heroic death." The audacity of this man to think that he could die like this after all the horrible things that he had done was unbelievable.

"Your death will be written by me." Before Felix can react, Aditya's hand turns into a Dragon claw. His claw penetrated his heart. The claw came out of his back while holding his beating heart. Cough...!!!

Felix coughed out a large mouthful of blood before looking at Aditya's cold face in horror. 『Ding! You have killed a Peak 3rd-order cultivator. Your experience points have been saved for later use.』

Aditya forcefully took out his hand. He then took Felix's storage ring. "It's time to destroy this hell hole." Under his control, Crimson flames began coming out of his body. Soon, the whole underground hideout was covered in Crimson flames. Booooooom........!!!

From the sky, Aditya took one last glance at the underground hideout, which had become a massive creator spanning more than 2000 meters in size, before teleporting back to the Dragon Palace. As soon as Aditya teleported to the living room, a figure jumped on him. Due to this unexpected move, Aditya and she both fell on the couch behind them. "Well, someone is very excited," Aditya asked with a smile. "Hehe...!! I couldn't control myself." Lilith did not waste any time. She leaned forward and pressed her lips against his. She believed that Aditya deserved a reward for everything that he did in the last few days. Like a good wife, she was just fulfilling her duties. Aditya did not push Lilith away. He also responded to her kiss. He gently grabbed her waist and was able to pin her under him when someone coughed to get their attention. Cough...! Cough....!!

Both Lilith and Aditya stopped to find the entire family in the living room and everyone was staring at them. It was Amelia who coughed. She looked very awkward at this moment, but others were smiling since it was time to celebrate. They had finally defeated their hidden enemy, and now it was time to celebrate.

Fortunately, Clara and Zak weren't in the room as they were in school. Lilith may be shameless, but she wasn't bold enough to continue with everyone watching. So both of them quickly stood up. "How did everything go?" "The battle never really began. Because of you, everything ended very shortly." Julia walked up to Aditya. "Watson, prepare a feast. Tonight, we are going to celebrate." "I am already on it." Watson and Walter went to the kitchen. "Where is that woman?" Aditya curiously asked. "My new toy is in the prison." Hearing this, Aditya looked at Julia for an explanation. "I will tell you later." "Your Majesty, sorry to interrupt you but the 5th-order cultivators from Deep Sea Palace are waiting for you." Sigh....!!

Aditya may have won but that doesn't mean he was free from his duties. ----------------
