“Your Majesty, everything is done. We have successfully captured Asharc city.”
“Thank you for reporting Amber. Now you can take some time to rest.” It was already midnight. It took a few hours to clean and deal with all the dead bodies. Aditya also refused to throw away the armors and the weapons that the soldiers of this city used previously.
“Thank your Majesty. Then, I will excuse myself” Amber gave a bow before leaving the room. Currently, Aditya was in the Mansion of Governor John. He was sitting in John’s study room and going through all the papers and documents.
“I have sent Scott, Tyler, and Henry with a total of 9,000 troops. Before morning, the towns in the surrounding 100 km radius will be under my control. I hope everything keeps moving according to the plan.”
“Now, let’s check my status panel. It’s been a while since I opened my status panel. I have killed two 3rd-orders, one mid 2nd-order and ten thousand 1st-order, my level should have taken a massive jump.”

“I have reached level 89.” Aditya raised his left eyebrow in surprise. The amount of experience points that he needed to level up would only increase with each level. Only strong enemies can give Aditya the huge experience points he needs. Currently, 1st-orders are too weak for him. Even after killing 10,000 1st-order, contrary to Aditya’s expectations he only leveled up 2 times. It was not that he was afraid of facing strong enemies. It was rather the opposite, Aditya felt a sense of excitement whenever he faced off against a powerful cultivator. What made Aditya sigh was the fact that his leveling speed would be greatly slowed down.

After 4 hours of nonstop reading various documents on the Asharc city’s taxes, finance and income, Aditya was starting to feel a little tried. These days he rarely slept. He would either spend his time trying to make new rune talisman or he would spend his time knowing more about the enemy.
Sigh!
Aditya looked back, through the transparent glass window, he can see the bustling city that seemed unaffected by the invasion. It was only the normal class people who suffered in these times.
“I wonder when Julia will finish her research on the black heart.” If Aditya were to get the Blackheart then he can bring down this whole Dynasty on its knees within a week’s time. The Blackheart was an essential part of Aditya’s future plan.

By the time when the first ray of the morning sunlight fell on the easter edge of the continent, the two Kingdoms were shaken up by the news that spread faster than bushfire.
“Hahaha! I don’t if the Istarin King has gone mad or he is actually a genius.”
“Not only to manage to fool everyone, but he also in less than 24 hours he went ahead to capture the Zulux Dynasty’s bordering city.”
“What’s more, he and one of his generals dyed the land of the Zulux dynasty with the blood of 10,000 soldiers.” 𝑙𝘳𝑎𝒹.𝗇𝓔t
“This man is an absolute freak. A lunatic.”
The streets of the Istarin Kingdom and the Nepoca Kingdom were talking about only one person. He was the same person who went on from being an alcoholic to becoming one of the best Kingdoms in the Istarin Kingdom history.
Currently, various meetings were being held in both the Nepoca Kingdom and in the Zulux Dynasty.
In the Nepoca Kingdom!
“What do you think your Majesty?” Duke Easton looked at his Majesty and asked.
“We will attack The Istarin Kingdom. Ever since the start of this war, King Aditya has kept exceeding our expectations. That man is a being with extraordinary intelligence. It’s not his power that makes him dangerous, it’s his intelligence. Even when the chances of the Istarin Kingdom winning those two battles were low, he never even once called the army that was under Duke Sarlus.”
“Your Majesty, are you saying that King Aditya already had predicted a fight with our Kingdom?” The King nodded his head.
“I can’t even see through him anymore. It’s like he was always walking 2 steps ahead.”
“It’s ironic to think that before the war started we were thinking of taking advantage of the Istarin Kingdom to conquer the Zulux Dynasty. Prepare for the attack. While King Aditya is away from his Kingdom, we can use this chance to bring Duke Sarlus to his knees and capture him.” In the north, while the Nepoca Kingdom was planning on attacking, King Sebastian was also planning his next move.
Zulux Dynasty Throne hall__
“Your Majesty….?” Everyone worriedly looked at King Sebastian. The man with dark red hair and a handsome face had closed his eyes and currently was taking long deep breaths to calm himself. Everyone worriedly stared at King Sebastian.
When today morning, the news reached the King’s ears, he nearly passed out from coughing 5 liters of blood. Unknowingly he once again was dancing under the enemy King’s control.
As everyone in the royal court stared at their King thinking that he was going to blame the newly appointed Prime Minister to take out his frustrated anger. The poor man has been cursed and blamed for the things that he didn’t even do.
“Hahaha! Today’s weather is really good.”
“….” For a moment everyone in the throne hall felt something was wrong with their king. Some even looked at each other, asking each other what was wrong with the King. Did the King finally go crazy?
“I think this would be perfect weather to execute my Prime Minister.”
“What?” Everyone including the Prime Minister stared at King Sebastian in shock. The King said that so casually that a few even felt that the King was joking but remembering the current state of the dynasty, the King shouldn’t be in the mood of joking.
“Your Majesty, this is not even my fault.” The young man with black hair whose age was only 29 fell to his knees and looked at the king with a begging expression. This whole thing wasn’t even his fault. So why?
Whenever he suggested something the King or the King’s advisors would always reject his suggestion. The decision to send two 3rd-orders and 65,000 troops in the battle was taken by the King and his royal advisors.
“Your Majesty, I think executing Prime Minister won’t give us anything. We will only lose one of our best.” One of the King’s advisor’s suggested.
The king looked at the Prime Minister in disdain. “Hmph! If he is considered one of the best in the Dynasty, then our Dynasty surely will fall. People like him don’t deserve to even stand here. Someone throw this man out.”
Instead of asking for forgiveness, everyone was a little surprised when the Prime Minister walked away from the throne hall without needing any guard to drag him out. He was already fed up with this. He was tired. Working under this man was not an option. He would rather work on farm lands than work as the King’s right-hand man.
“Now that the trash is gone, let’s talk about the real situation. I admit that King Aditya was very clever.” Without Aditya, the enemy Kingdom would have fallen in their first attack. Aditya was the main pillar while his 7 generals were his seven weapons.
“Before he targets we must drive them back from our land and reclaim our territory. Your Majesty, this time I suggest going all out.”
“That’s what I am planning. Call both of our generals. This time I will personally lead this battle. I must see what King Aditya is capable of.”
