Dragon Monarch System
Chapter 232 232:- Girl’s Talk

"Well, from now on I will be living with you."

"Say that again."

"I will be living with you from now. Aren't you happy?" Riya while hugging Aditya's right arm; which caused her breast to press against his right.

"____"

"Yea...h."

"From now on, nothing can separate us. We will sleep together and do all sorts of things together." Hearing these words Julia nearly lost her calm. Fortunately, Alicia acted fast and pulled Riya away from Aditya.

"Even if you live here, you won't be sharing the same bedroom with Aditya. You're not his wife. Only Julia has the right to stay with Aditya."

"Hmph! Aditya is my husband and nothing will change this fact. I love him not because of the contract."

"You..." Alicia's body began to shake in anger.

"Ladies, can you calm down?" Aditya had no choice but to intervene as he couldn't let this catfight go on any longer. He had to stop them. He can see that Riya and Alicia were interrupting Julia.

"Anything for you darling." Riya sweetly smiled and sat next to Aditya while pretending as if she never had a catfight with Alicia. Seeing this Alicia was left speechless.

"Shameless." Although Alicia said this word in a very low tone, everyone was able to hear it because of their sharp senses. Riya was about to reply when Aditya put his right hand on her right shoulder to stop her.

"Alicia, how is everything going in Ethereal Empire?" Aditya decided to change the subject while pretending as if he never heard Alicia calling Riya shameless.

"Sylvie and I have used the White Lotus guild to prevent the neighboring Empires from having any thoughts about the Ethereal empire. Also by now, everyone knows who was responsible for that gigantic crimson flame orb that took out millions of mutant fire ants. Right now, all the neighboring Empires think that the son-in-law of the Emperor is a powerful Peak 5th-order cultivator."

"So you and Sylvie made the neighboring Empires believe that currently, the Ethereal Empire has two Peak 5th-order cultivators." Alicia nodded her head in agreement. Doing stuff like spreading false rumors or information is a very easy thing for Alicia. The soft power that she had in Westnia made her very dangerous. It wouldn't be wrong to say that Alicia has the power to control the entire Westnia continent from the shadows by manipulating the people with fake news and rumors.

"Alicia, I fought Ivan yesterday. He wasn't the Ivan that everyone thought of him. This entire time, he has been hiding his powers. Ivan was a Peak 5th-order cultivator." Alicia widened her eyes in shock. These days, the goddess of wealth has been searching for Ivan. Alicia never thought that Ivan was a Peak 5th-order cultivator. If these words were told to her by someone else, she would never believe such words. The thought of Ivan being a Peak 5th-order cultivator sounded very ridiculous and unbelievable.

"I believe he has used some sort of artifact to hide his cultivation." Aditya has checked Ivan's storage ring. Unfortunately, he couldn't replace any artifact capable of hiding his cultivation. Aditya believes this artifact was given to Ivan by the organization.

"Did you kill him?" Alicia asked in a cold tone. Kyra was a girl who looked up to Alicia and thought of Alicia as her idol. Kyra wanted to become just like Alicia. It kind of pained Alicia to see someone whom she had Known die. If possible, the goddess would like to avenge her.

Aditya shook his head. "Ivan is the key to obtaining classified information about the organization. For now, he is locked in my prison. I have crippled his mana heart. He won't be able to cultivate again."

"Alicia, what I am telling you shouldn't go out of his room. To the outside world, Ivan has died. So...."

"Don't worry, I won't tell anyone. I will tell father that Aditya has killed Ivan. No one would know that Ivan is a member of the organization or the fact that he is a Peak 5th-order cultivator." Aditya nodded his head with a relieved smile.

"Excuse me, what organization are we talking about here?" Riya asked.

"That's classified information." Aditya didn't trust Riya fully. As an ex-politician, it was very hard for him to trust someone whom he had met only two times. Julia, Watson, and Alicia all have proven themselves that they would rather die than spill any information about the Istarin empire. As for Paige, before coming here, she accepted the contract to not leak any classified information to anyone.

It's not like Aditya did not trust Riya at all. He did trust her but not as much as he trusted Julia and Alicia.

"Can't you tell me?" Riya pleaded to Aditya with puppy eyes.

"Sorry dear, but it's too early for you to know such information." Riya, Julia, and Alicia, all three were surprised on hearing the word 'Dear' in Aditya's sentence.

"Alright, I think I have finally made the cure. Aditya, try drinking this." Julia gently pushed Riya so that she would move and give her some space. Riya moved aside and let Julia approach Aditya. The goddess of alchemy was carrying a glass tube that was filled with a white liquid.

"I realized that this poison was made with black magic so I added a few ingredients with holy magic properties when making the cure." Julia was 99% sure that her potion was going to heal him.

Aditya just nodded his head and took the glass tube from, Julia. Just as he swallowed the white liquid, Aditya can felt a cool sensation spread throughout his body from his two hearts. The burning sensation inside his body stopped.

Julia and the others didn't need to hear Aditya's answer as they saw the blue veins on his chest and right shoulder starting to fade. An entire minute later, all the blue veins disappeared. Even the half-inch size hold on his right shoulder healed and closed up.

『Ding! The poison has been cured. Your stats have been restored.』

"How do you feel?" Julia asked with an exhausted smile. Despite looking very tired and exhausted, the smile on her face was full of happiness. This whole time, this woman hasn't stopped working just for his sake.

Instead of replying, Aditya pulled her right hand. The next second, Julia found herself buried in Aditya's chest. "I feel perfectly fine because my doctor-wife has taken care of me." Saying that Aditya pecked her lips before hugging her again.

Seeing this Watson, Amber, and Paige quietly left the room knowing.

Standing next to Riya, the goddess of wealth felt very complicated watching this. On one side she felt very happy for Aditya and on the part felt slightly sad and jealous. Alicia did not have the courage to express her feelings for a man like Riya. Even when she had made her feelings for this man clear, Aditya hasn't responded to her feelings. Right now the goddess wasn't sure what he felt for her.

"No fair. Husband, I also want to be hugged and kissed." Seeing that Julia is not stopping him or not saying anything, Aditya being a thick-skinned man, he pulled Riya with his other hand and then hugged her. Seeing this, a sad look appeared on Alicia's face. At that moment, the goddess felt Aditya had made his feelings clear. He had chosen Julia and Riya.

"Come here." However, amidst her darkness and sadness, she heard those warm and gentle words. Those words pushed all of her darkness and sadness away and brightened her entire heart. Looking up, Alicia found, Aditya looking at her with a gentle loving smile.

Looking at those crimson eyes, the goddess hesitantly took a step forward. Before she can take the next step, Aditya pulled into a hug.

For a moment no one said anything. Aditya was relieved to see neither of the girls saying anything. If this showed they had no problem with each other. This also opened new doors for Aditya but for now, he wasn't going to walk through those doors.

After an entire minute, Aditya moved back. "Everyone, I have some urgent work to do. I will talk to you later. See in all at the dining table." Aditya felt that the girls needed to have some time to talk among themselves.

Just as he left, Julia, Alicia, and Riya all three looked at each other. Julia was the first one to break the silence. "I will let the two of you in his harem but you two would have to listen to my words. I am in charge of everything." Julia already knew that Aditya was going to marry multiple women. So from the beginning, she has been preparing herself for that.

"Why are you in charge of everything? It should be his childhood best friend. Besides, I am the oldest one." Riya wanted to be in control so that she can spend more time with Aditya.

"For cultivators, age does not matter." Alicia didn't want Riya to be in charge. She felt comfortable with Julia being in control.

"Even if you're his childhood best friend, I have stayed beside him for two and half years as a maid."

"Oh really, what about the fact that we sent powerful cultivators to secretly protect Aditya from the enemy kingdoms all those years." If Riya and Alicia hadn't sent powerful cultivators to protect Aditya, he would have died a long time ago. Especially the Zulux Dynasty king was trying his best to kill Aditya.

"Riya, I also support Julia. She deserves to be in charge." Alicia made her stance clear. Knowing this royal elf's personality, the goddess of wealth knew that she would try to keep Aditya all to herself which she didn't want. Also, Alicia knew Julia much better and knew how she thinks and what type of personality she has. Even a few weeks back, Julia had told her that she can pursue Aditya. At that time, she refused saying that she wasn't interested. But in less than 2 weeks everything changed.

Sigh!

Riya sighed knowing that she cannot fight. The feelings that Aditya had for Julia and Alicia were on a complete different level. The feelings that he had for her isn't that deep. In this case, it wouldn't be wise to keep fighting to be in charge. Aditya has proved that he loved Julia the most. Earlier he went to hug and kiss Julia before anyone else which showed how deep his feelings were.

"How about we just stop this nonsense of being in charge?"

Julia also nodded. "Alright. For now, let's see how things go." And with that, the three girls temporarily made peace. Who knows this peace might break if another girl comes in to claim Aditya.

Scene change____

"Watson, prepare all the Dragonians for a big fight. Now that the White Dragon Emperor is dead and both sides have taken big casualties at the central plains, it's the perfect time to strike." The Dragon Monarch wanted to act before anyone else.

"Your Majesty, are you sure? You just recovered. Why don't you take a few days of rest?" Watson hesitantly asked.

"Watson, we cannot miss this chance." The real reason Aditya was so interested in the southern region is because of the mana stone mines. By taking both dragon empires under his control, Aditya will have a monopoly over mana stones. Meaning that he can influence the prices of the mana stones in the market. He would have the power to cripple an Empire's economy with just a snap of his fingers.

"We will attack the Southern Fire Dragon Empire. Since I have killed the White dragon king, I can also kill the black Dragon king and end both dragon empires' rule." The Dragon Monarch had big ambitions this time. Unlike previous times when it was the Istarin Empire that was being attacked, this time, it would be the Istarin Empire who takes the initiative to start a war.
