Dragon Monarch System
15 Chapter 15

“Hey, did you head? Your Bastard king has told the people that he was going to bring the culprit who killed our brothers last night and publicly execute that murderer.”

“Do you really think the King has captured the man who managed to kill [600+] thugs in just 30 minutes? Don’t forget, among the people that person killed there was also the Amir who was a Mid-second-order cultivator. I think the King is trying to calm the people with fake words.”

“Your words do have a point. Who knows you might be right and on the day of execution, he might execute a fake person to calm the public.”

In the same bar that Aditya went to last night, all the thugs and criminals in the city had gathered for an emergency meeting about the incident that shook the underground world of this city. If this incident had happened with just one gang, then others wouldn’t have been much worried. Instead, they would have been happy because, with one less gang, they can increase their earnings. But what happened yesterday night has left a seed of fear in other gangs’ hearts. They were afraid. Everyone gang in this city was now living in fear of not knowing when that demon will appear and start killing once again.

“Everyone please come down. I have a few words that I would like to say before we will decide what to do.” The one who just spoke was the old bartender who gave information to Aditya last night.

“I know what happened last night was very horrifying and disturbing. Today, after some investigation we have found some clues on the murderer’s identity.” Today, the bar was closed to outsiders. It was a special gathering for all the gangs in this city to discuss the last night’s incident.

Hearing the bartender’s words, all the gang leaders and criminals went silent. Everyone here highly respected the old bartender. It wouldn’t be wrong to say that this old-looking man was the real leader of the mafia world of this city.

“After checking all the dead bodies, including the dead body of Amir, it was confirmed that the killer could use fire-element powers. For example, when we checked the wounds on Amir’s body, his chest was burned. The place where they bought had ashes. My people also have checked the bodies of our fellow brothers. Among the [600+] dead bodies, most of them had severe burns. The burns were not any normal burns, their flesh was turned charcoal black from the heat. You all can imagine just how frightening the killer’s fire attack was.” Some thugs felt chills running down their spine. Just from listening to the bartender’s words, they felt were seeing the whole thing in their imagination.

“My guess is, the killer first attacked Amir and took him near the western gate. After killing Amir, the killer went ahead to kill all the gang members of the Vile Crew gang. In the process of slaughtering the members of the vile crew, some other gang members must have seen the killer and tried to attack him. And that’s when the true slaughter began. He killed every single thug that came into his view.”

“However, I have noticed something here.” The bartender fell into silence for a second.

“What?” One of the gang leaders asked.

“While the killer was killing the thugs, due to the loud screams, some ordinary citizens woke up and saw the killer. But the killer never went to silence those people.”

“Just get to the point already.” Another gang leader slammed the table with his fist and asked in anger._.

“Does everyone here remember how The Norlor family was publicly executed one day ago?” Everyone nodded their heads with a confused look.

“Does the image of a certain fire user who brutally slaughtered the mercenaries in the public come to your mind?” It was then everyone realized who the killer was. It was non than the person who called him the right-hand man of the King.

“It was that bastard Isaac.”

“Exactly. But why would the King suddenly order his right-hand man to do something like this? I mean the King could have publicly taken action. But instead, he chose to do things in the dark.”

While other gang leaders were speaking, the bartender began to think about yesterday. ‘There is no doubt, it was that man who came for information who did all this. Then why did he ask about Sir Amos?’ As everyone was talking among themselves, the whole place turned quiet when they heard a knock on the door.

Knock! Knock!

“Who is it?” The bartender signaled everyone to keep their mouth shut.

“Hey, why is this bar is closed? I just fought with my wife. Let me drink some alcohol.” Everyone looked at each other with a speechless look.

“I hate to say but today the bar is closed for some maintenance work.”

“Grandpa, why the hell are you asking for entry permission? If someone blocks our path, we will just cut them down.”

Bang!

The next moment everyone heard a loud sound. Looking at the other side, everyone found the male waiter lying on a broken table.

“We’re under attack. Everyone prepare yourselves.” The old bartender shouted with a pale look on his face.

“May I come in?” The old bartender’s eyes widened in shock and his face turned pale when Aditya walked in while holding a black sword in his hand.

“It looks like everyone is here.” From the shadows, behind Aditya, another old man appeared and stood beside Aditya while holding a long sword in his hand.

“Fu! Fu!, this big sister can’t wait to kill some people.” On Aditya’s left, another figure emerged from the shadows. She had long beautiful yellow hair and she was holding a pair of daggers.

At this point, all the thugs were on their feet and were ready to attack. “So you’re the one who killed my best friend.” Aditya looked at the man with short silver hair and golden eyes. The man was 6 feet tall.

“It’s a good thing that you come here. I won’t have to search for you. Now I will avenge my best friend.” Without any warning, the man disappeared from his place and appeared behind Aditya in a few seconds. He was about to swing his battle axe aiming at Aditya’s neck but before his attack could reach Aditya, Watson landed a kick on the man named Jason and sent him flying.

Bang!

“Young Master, please don’t underestimate your enemies.” Aditya wouldn’t have thought of attacking tonight. But seeing that Amber had regained her ability to cultivate and also recovered half of her strength, Aditya changed his mind.

“I am not underestimating anyone. Though I was a little surprised by his strength. Amber and Watson, both of you handle everyone here. Meanwhile, I will settle the debt with certain someone.” Saying that Aditya looked at the old bartender who tried to poison him yesterday.

“Understood. But please don’t be too reckless. This man is strong. We will try to assist you as soon as we’re done here.”

“Let’s take this fight somewhere else.”

Swoosh!

Both parties appeared on two rooftops. Standing opposite each other, both parties tightly held their weapons.

“I told you that I was going to pay you a visit.”

“If I had known that you’re this dangerous then I would have done everything in my power to kill your last night.”

“Bad for you then. But I do wonder, why are you trying to keep Amos’s information a secret.” The piece of paper that the bartender gave Aditya had all the basic information written about Amos. Like when did Amos start his merchant carrier, or when did he decide to expand his business. But there was no information on where Aditya could replace Amos.

“If you defeat me, I will tell you the answer. Before we fight, let me introduce myself I am Conor.”

“I will also do you a favor and tell you my name when I defeat you.”

“Enough talking, let’s start this fight already.” The third-party was none other than Jason who wanted to avenge his best friend’s death.

Air compression!

Jason jumped 5 meters above the ground and punched the empty air with his right fist causing an air sphere to form and shot forward Aditya like a cannonball. Aditya quickly raised his left-hand index finger towards the incoming sphere and shot a red-orange bolt from his left hand to destroy the sphere.

Boom!

“You shouldn’t let your guard down.” The old man, Conor appeared behind Aditya and sent him flying with a kick.

Bang!

Aditya was forced to land 10 meters away, on another roof. ‘It’s difficult to take on two Mid-second-order enemies at the same time.’ If Aditya was fighting one of them at a time then he was confident about defeating them but now the situation was pressuring Aditya. This entire time he was on his defense.

“Nice work old man.” Both Jason and Conor rushed at Aditya at their full speed. Both men become so fast that Aditya couldn’t keep track of their movement. Under the moonlight, two shadows rapidly closed the distance and were only 5 meters away when both stopped their bodies when Aditya’s body suddenly started glowing in gold light.

“What the hell is happening?”

“I have no idea.”

The golden light covered Aditya’s entire body. The light was so bright that even from another part of the city, the people were able to see the golden light.

[Ding! Blast of Divine Fury has been activated. All of the host stats except for mana have increased by 50%.]

Just when the Blast of Divine Fury skill was activated, Aditya instantly felt the increase in his powers. But his face soon turned pale due to the rapid consumption of his Mana. Each second he was losing [5+] mana.

‘I can only keep this skill going for the next 14 to 15 seconds. I have to finish things quickly.’

Bang!

The roof beneath Aditya’s feet instantly cracked when he jumped by exerting his strength. The golden figure moved like a bolt of lightning and appeared in front of his enemies. Both Jason and Conor were beyond shocked seeing Aditya’s sudden increase in his strength.

Without wasting any time, Aditya swung his black sword hoping to take out Jason with his attack.

Clang!

Conor intervened at the last moment and blocked the strike that was aimed at Jason’s neck with a dagger.

“I am getting sick of you old man.” Saying that using his left fist that was covered in crimson flame, Aditya angrily punched Conor’s chest and sent him flying like a rocket.

Bang!

[10 seconds]

By then Jason had recovered from his shock. He realized even though Aditya’s speed had increased, his agility wasn’t faster than his. Jason stepped back to dodge the sword attack while trying to land a punch on Aditya’s body.

[9 seconds]

‘Dammit’ As seconds passed, Aditya’s face started turning paler and paler. He realized that he won’t hold on for much longer. As time passed, his head was getting heavier. It felt like he was about to lose his consciousness. While gritting his teeth, stepped back and raised his sword above his head.

Using both of his hands and with all of his strength, Aditya vertically swung his sword that was now showing some signs of turning crimson red with the intention of cutting Jason in half.

“Hahah! This can’t hur…What?” Jason laughed while moving out of the attack range but then a red wave of flame hit Jason faster than he could react.

Booom!

The red flame consumed Jason. The flame wrapped itself around Jason’s body.
