Dragon Monarch System
chapter-832

"Yeah!! That's right!!" He did not crush her throat. He simply exerted enough strength to choke her to death. He wanted to choke her to death. "You have been really annoying this whole time." Even when she tried to free herself with all of her might, it did not work. Her attempts to free herself seem to have no effect on him. "Victoria...!!" The girls rushed to save her. "Stay down, bugs!!" Boooooom.....!!!

All the girls were pinned to the ground. This time, the gravity on their bodies was even higher than before. Riya was finding it extremely hard to bear this pressure as she wasn't even a Peak 5th-order yet. Her body wasn't as strong as a Peak 5th-order's body. And here, even Peak 5th-order were struggling. 'Am I really going to die?' Victoria asked herself. 'Aditya, where are you?' She looked at the sky.

Victoria and Riya's eyes rolled back. They were about to close their eyes when a powerful lightning bolt struck Robert's chest. Bang....!!!

Robert was sent flying like a cannonball. A figure whose whole body was covered in Crimson lightning slowly came out of the dark clouds. At this moment, everyone on the battlefield temporarily stopped fighting.

Everyone's eyes were on the figure who was slowly descending from the dark clouds. There was no mistaking it. It was him. The Dragon Monarch was here. Seeing the man for whom Robert had been waiting to show up, Charles felt slightly excited and afraid. It was a mix of various emotions. 'Don't disappoint me, Robert!!'

Charles was observing what was happening on the rest of the battlefield. Given how things were going, it did not look like the Dune Sovereignty's troops would have been able to win this war today. Robert was his only remaining hope now. Meanwhile, at the Dragon Palace,

"He is back!!!" "Yeah!! He finally decided to come back." "Husband...!!" "Big brother is here!!!" Alicia, Julia, Lara, and others were very excited. Just when they needed him the most, he showed up. "Now that he is here, there is no need to worry about anything anymore." Aditya has made everyone believe that even if he fought against the Strongest cultivator in the world, he would still win. The thought of him losing did not even cross his mind. "With His Majesty, we have won this war." Aria was ready to celebrate. "Hahaha!!! Indeed!! We should prepare a big feast for everyone." Watson suggested. Walter, his twin brother who stood beside Watson, nodded his head with a small smile. Watson might have joined the battle if he was needed, but right now, the Istarin Empire wasn't a little Dynasty anymore. Additionally, he had grown old and wished to dedicate his remaining life to serving the Dragon Monarch and his royal family.

"You two should slow down," Sophia said with a small smile. "Mom, big brother is invincible. He will beat that bad guy." Little Zak couldn't sit still. "Yes, my brother is the strongest." Clara agreed with Zak. She has never seen Aditya lose a fight. "The Istarin Empire is the Graveyard of Empires, and it will always remain this way," Olivia commented in a small tone. But everyone heard her and nodded their heads. It wasn't just a bold claim. It was a fact. The history of the Istarin Empire is filled with examples. "I guess there is no stopping them." Bianca and Sophia exchanged helpless looks. Both women looked relieved, and the small smiles that never left their lips proved it.

Aditya's expression became colder the more things he observed. He then landed in front of the girls. They did not look good, especially Victoria and Riya. Everyone was panting. He had seen what Robert put the girls through when he arrived. Seeing their condition, Aditya's heart ached. But the next second, the pain turned into anger. 'How dare he!!' Crimson lightning began flickering around his body. His body temperature also started rising. Seeing him, everyone looked very relieved. He was the unshakable pillar for them. "Aditya!!" "You're finally back!!" "Took you long enough!!" "I thought you were never going to show up!!" "Where were we you?" His anger subsided once the girls surrounded him and began showering with questions. "I will answer everything later. For now, let me take care of this guy." Aditya turned towards Robert, who had already gotten up and was waiting for him. "Be careful. He is very good at ice and gravity manipulation."

"Also, that spear of his has the ability to fly and attack on its own. It's almost like a living entity."

"Understood!!" Before going to fight, Aditya looked at Victoria and Riya. "Are you two alright?" He was very worried. Seeing how dangerously both of them came to dying scared him. Both of them weakly nodded their heads. "Stay back!!"

"I was wondering where were you. But it turns out you went somewhere." Robert guessed it from the questions that the girls asked him.

Judging by how their faces instantly lit up when he appeared, his guess only became stronger. Aditya certainly had made a trip. "I had some business to take care of in Stardawn." Hearing this, Robert narrowed his eyes. 'Stardawn!!' 'The death of my Master Allen.' 'Aditya is also a Divine Dragon.' 'Why do I feel that all of this is connected in some way?' "Just a curious question. Are you the one who killed my Master Allen?"

He responded by asking him a question. "Are you the secret weapon that Allen spoke about before dying?" Hearing this, Robert was stunned for a second before he burst out laughing. Meanwhile, Aditya observed him. 'There is something off about him.' 'I feel very disgusted by his Aura.' Normally, he would feel this way when he was around Dragon Slayers. But this feeling of disgust from Robert's Aura was amplified 10 times. 'It's clear that Allen used Rin's divine blood to create a monster that is especially strong against Divine Dragons.' Just sensing his Aura made him subconsciously cautious. "I hate this Aura!!" Victoria commented in a weak tone. But the disgusting feeling that she experienced from his Aura wasn't even 25% of what Aditya was feeling. Since he was a Divine Dragon, the feeling of disgust was amplified. "Secret weapon...!! Is that how Master Allen viewed me?" Robert didn't sound surprised. He sounded amused. "You don't look so surprised?" Aditya couldn't help but ask. "I made a control with my master. He saved my life, and in exchange, I decided to serve him." "But to think that he would call me his Secret weapon before dying.......!!" Robert smirked at Aditya. "I guess he knew my hunger for seeking stronger opponents and understood that one way or another, I would challenge the Dragon Monarch, who is said to be the strongest cultivator within the 5th-order Order realm."

"This is why you are on King Charles's side?" Although he did not know what caused this war, he can guess what must have happened. "After my master died, I was no longer obligated to capture the Divine Dragon and bring him to Stardawn. If I had to say what changed since My master's death, it would be the fact that before, I just wanted to fight you, but now, I want to fight you and also take half of what you have."

"Who wouldn't want to be the King if given the chance?"

"Being strong means you can do whatever you want, and no one will dare to stop you. Rather, no one can stop you."

"Robert, was it?" The former Hero nodded his head. "You know my name?" "The strongest Hero of the Ice Mystic Clan. Your death basically started the demise of your clan." Aditya had a hobby of reading. He read a book that provided brief information about each hero during the ancient Demon Invasion. In that book, he remembers reading about Robert. Thanks to one of the very first Innate skills that he received from the system which was Instant Learning and Adaption, Aditya rarely forget any details or things that he have read in the past.

"It's surprising that you know me!!" "Even that 15000+ years old Charles did not know me. I thought, no one in this era would know my identity." "Perhaps, if you had lived to see the end of the Demon Invasion, you would have been more famous, and maybe people of this era might have remembered you." "That's true!!!" "You know, I have always said this. I feel that you were born in the wrong era. Someone like you should have been born in the chaotic era." Aditya shook his head. "Perphaps, it was because I was born in this era that I was able to come this far."

"Enough talking!!" "To you, this is a challenge to see who is strongest. But to me, this is a fight to get revenge for what you did to my women."

On the other side of the battlefield, Spencer was very relieved to see Aditya was back. "Alright!! His Majesty has joined the battlefield. In his presence, we have nothing to fear." "March forward!! We won't stop until every single Dune Sovereignty Emipre's troops haven't surrendered."

"Let me help!!" It was Lilith. Following the Succubus Empress was her own daughter.

Luna, Amber, and Victoria had already moved towards the enemy. Amelia decided not to get involved and instead watched the fight between Robert and Aditya. Also, she was going to stay with her daughter and make sure that she didn't do anything reckless. "But Mom, I am fine now!!" However, her voice was still a bit weak. "You're not fine!!" "Just stand beside your mom and watch the battle between your husband and that annoying Hero."

Like others, Amelia wasn't that surprised that Robert was a hero. From the beginning, she strongly suspected that she might have seen him somewhere. When Aditya mentions him as a hero, she remembers once seeing a painting of a person who looked 90% like Robert in one of the ancient books from the time of the Demon Invasion. "Okay, fine.....!!" She sounded very displeased.
