1.1% Dragon Monarch System / Chapter 9: Chapter 9:- "I will surely pay you a visit again"

Chapter 9: Chapter 9:- "I will surely pay you a visit again"

The bartender, who was the old man widened his eyes in greed. His hand moved faster than the wind and took the royal gold coin from the table.

"I wonder what mister would like to drink today?" The bartender asked while cleaning a glass with a towel. He acted as if he had never taken or even seen the money.

"I would like to have Amos, please."

Hearing those words, the bartender widened his eyes. But unlike the last time this time, there was a shock in his eyes.

"Sir, I am afraid that we don't serve Amos drink here. I apologize." Aditya snorted in his heart. Of course, this old man knew everything. In this place, everything worked on money. Everything had value.

Without saying anything, Aditya put 5 royal gold coins on the table. Last like the last time, the bartender moved his hand very quickly causing the coins to disappear. For a moment Aditya really doubted whether this bartender was a thief in secret.

"Since Mister is so generous, this old man will surely fulfill your request." The bartender began to make a special type of drink. After being called an alcohol addict so many times, Aditya has sworn to himself that he will never drink again. But for the sake of this information, he would have to least take a sip of the drink.

After making the drink, the Bartender passed the glass with a light blue liquid in it along with a small folded piece of paper beneath the glass.

Aditya put the folded piece of paper in his pocket and then took a sip of the drink. In others' eyes, Aditya has drunk alcohol from the glass but in reality, the liquid was still in his mouth. These kinds of activities are very risky. Often times there are chances that the bartender would mix strange substances in the drink to knock people out.

"I have enjoyed your drink. I will surely pay you a visit again." This was Aditya's way of telling the bartender that he was going to come again. But the next time he wasn't going to wear any disguise.

Aditya quickly went out of the bar. Just as he began walking back, he noticed several people were following him. "Just like I expected, this bartender really sold me out. Fortunately, I never consumed that drink."

Looking at the group of people who were following him, Aditya wanted to kill them here. "Too bad, killing you dogs would spoil the plan. I promise I will give you another visit." Killing these men would alert the bartender. That old bastard might even escape.

"There is no way I am letting that bastard leave especially when I gave 6 precious royal gold coins." Just remembering the 6 royal gold coins, Aditya's heart ached in pain. It was not easy to earn money but it was always super easy to spend the money.

Aditya purposely walked into a dark alley. When those men following him also reached the alley, Aditya already had vanished.

Swoosh!

Without anyone noticing, Aditya jumped from one roof to another roof and continued moving to the other side of the city. Aditya was moving so fast that even the first-order cultivators couldn't see him moving. Also, his black cloak helped him further blend into the darkness.

Today Aditya confirmed something. After awakening his bloodline and when he choose his class, his current stats were above first-order body cultivators. First-order cultivators have a total of [250+] stats points while Aditya's total stats points were [375+]. This is why he was able to take on all the mercenaries without much effort. By using his skills and free stats point, Aditya is confident that he can even go against a Mid 2nd-order cultivator and survive.

As Aditya was on the western side of the city, while he was about to pass by some old wooden houses, he suddenly heard a scream that stopped his movement.

"My lord, please forgive this lowly person. I swear to pay back all the money that I took from you. Just give me a few more days. Please don't burn our house." Curiously Aditya decided to take a look.

There was a fat man who was kneeling in front of a group of thugs. The man who was kneeling in front of them was about 38 years old. Under the moonlight, Aditya could see that the thugs had beaten the man causing bruises to appear all over his face.

"Why does this whole scene feels like it is taken from a cliché novel?" Aditya decided to observe everything for a little longer.

"Give you time? We gave you money one year ago. You still haven't paid the interest, not to mention the actual amount is also unpaid. Our business runs on interest. We didn't open this business to give charity to people like you."

The fat man's entire body trembled hearing one of the thug's words. It was true to he had no choice but to make money to feed his family. The man thought he would be able to pay off all the money but little did he know that he had fallen into a trap. It was only after 5 months he learned that these people charged a very high amount of interest.

"But sir, when I took the money your people told us that the interest would be only 10%. But now you're charging 60% interest and that is per month. Please, sir, I think we have some misunderstanding."

bang!

One of the thug's kicked the fat man's stomach. "You dared to talk back with us? Who do you think you're?"

"That's it. We're not going to waste any time here. Burn his entire family with their house."

The man tried to get up but failed. The pain in his body was not allowing him to get up and stop the thugs. At this moment he felt extremely powerless. Despair was written all over Alex's face. His family was tied inside the house. There was nothing he could do to save his precious family.

"I never knew thugs have started doing business." Hearing the sudden voice, every thug became alert. Everyone looked in a certain direction, only to see a man whose face was covered in a hood standing on the roof.

"Who are you?"

"Tsk! Classic cliché line. Can't you people ask something else? Whatever, I should end this." Before any thug could understand what was happening, a red bolt of lightning shot out from Aditya's body. The molten lightning split into 10 small lightning and hit each thug who was standing in front of Aditya.

Ahhh!

"Weaklings. I shouldn't have expected any experience points from these people."

Aditya then removed the hood that was covering his face as he landed in front of the man named Alex.

"Hey man, how are you doing?" Aditya asked while pulling Alex to stand up.

"Not so good. But thank you for saving me and my family." The man bowed his head to Aditya.

"No worries. So can you tell me who these thugs were?" Aditya wasn't saving this man and his family only out of pure kindness. What he wanted was the leader of these thugs.

'A great man once said, plundering is the easiest way of getting rich.' Aditya was exactly following that man's words. The quickest way of getting rich would be by targeting the criminals of this city. In this way, Aditya can kill two birds with one stone. This method will lower the crime rate and also give a boost to his treasury.

"This was the Vile Crew group."

"Vile Crew, are they pirates or what? What kind of idiotic name is that?"

Alex weirdly looked at Aditya. This was one of the biggest gangs in this city that they were talking about. Even if this person had the strength to kill them, he shouldn't take them lightly.

"Sir, I think you shouldn't take the Vile Crew lightly. I heard their number is well over 200. Their leader is a man with terrifying strength. Rumor has it that the Vile Crew leader is a Mid-second-order body cultivator."

"I see. By the way, my name is Aditya. What is your name?"

"My name is Alex. I don't have any family name." In this world, only the rich and the nobles are allowed to have family names. While the commoners most don't care about having family names. While the rich and noble families want to preserve their family name for generations, the commoners don't have the same thought as the nobles.

"Alex, do you know where I can find this Vile Crew gang?" Aditya's eyes flashed in killing intent. After that nightmare, Aditya has been wanting to vent his anger on someone.

"I do know where the Vile Crew gang operates their business."

"Good. By the way, I can't help but notice you seem to be knowledgeable about calculations." Earlier Aditya heard Alex talk about interest. It sounds like Alex knew a lot about mathematics.

"Yes, father used to be a merchant. He taught me everything that I know about finance." Alex replied with an awkward look. Before Aditya, no one had ever asked Alex about his financial knowledge.

"Great. I need men like you Alex. Tell me, Alex do you want to work for me? I promise you and your family won't have to worry about food and shelter. I will give you a monthly 5 gold coins salary as well." Aditya looked very excited for some reason.

Watson was a butler, not a financial expert. It was all thanks to the hundred years of knowledge that Watson was able to help Aditya with the financial work. As their financial condition continues to improve, the workload on Watson's shoulders will also increase. Watson also had other works to do. Aditya can't just pull Watson to sit with him and work the whole day long.

So sooner or later, Aditya will need an assistant. Alex was perfect for this job. As long as Aditya trains him for a few weeks, Alex should grasp the basics and would be able to work without Aditya's guidance.

"Sir, Can I know what kind of job you're offering me?" Alex asked.

"You will know later. For now, take this scale with you and give it to a person named Watson." Alex looked at the shiny red scale that was the size of a fingernail. The scale was very durable and seems to shine even in the dark.

This scale was Aditya's dragon scale. Since Aditya had recently awakened his dragon bloodline, he still can't transform into a dragon. As long as Aditya manages to reach second order, he should be able to transform into a dragon.

Unlike humans who grow weaker with age, Dragons, Vampires, and Fox people, Elves only keep growing stronger with their age. Even if Aditya stops cultivating, his cultivation will continue to increase with his age. But the process will be too slow for Aditya. It might take him 100 years to reach second order. That's why most dragons prefer to cultivate instead of relying on their age.

Although Aditya still can't transform into a dragon, he noticed that as his strength keeps increasing, he can grow scales on his dragon body. This crimson red scale that he gave to Alex is his signature to Watson knows.

"Take your family with you, and head to the Castle." Saying that Aditya left as he had to deal with certain stupid pirates who were staying on his land.

"Head to the Castle? The only castle that I can think of is that King's cast...does that mean?" Alex's entire body trembled in excitement. The excitement was so great that he no longer felt any pain in his body. Alex quickly ran into his house to free his wives and children and let them know about this amazing news.

"Who the fuck are you?" A man whose right eye had a long scar and was holding a cigar in his hand asked the cloaked figure who just entered his house.

"Let's just say, I am inferno Blaze." Saying that Aditya rushed towards the leader of the Vile Crew.

Chapter 10: Chapter 10: - Massacre in the city

"Who the fuck are you?" A man whose right eye had a long scar and was holding a cigar in his hand asked the cloaked figure who just entered his house.

"Let's just say, I am inferno Blaze." Saying that Aditya rushed towards the leader of the Vile Crew.

Bang!

"What the hell do you want? Why are you even attacking me?" The man who was the leader of the vile Crew gang asked as he defended himself from Aditya's attack. Being a body cultivator, this man's stats were higher than Aditya's. But Aditya had an advantage in firepower.

"I came to repay the interest." Aditya replied in a sarcastic tone as he charged at the man name Amir once again.

Clang!

"Repay the interest? I don't remember paying you." Saying that Amir pushed Aditya back and then retreated 10 meters away.

The man named Amir was 5 feet 5 inches tall. His body was slim and muscular. The scar on his right eye gave him a scary appearance. Amir had long black hair that he tied in a bun. He was wearing a black kimono that had a pirate symbol on its back. Amir here was a Mid-2nd-order body cultivator. Unlike normal cultivators, his cultivation was rather focused on making his body tougher.

"Well, I don't know which fucker sent you here. I am not going to let you live."

Scene change_

On the streets, most of the gang members of the vile crew were drunk and pissed.

"Did you hear what that alcohol addict did today?"

"Of course I did. I was here when the Norlor family's head was being publicly executed."

"Thanks to that bastard King, today we were forced to use our profits to pay the tax. I swear one of these days, I will kill that king by my own hands."

"Idiot, you're only a first-order cultivator. From what I heard, the king has a right-hand man who can even kill a Peak first-order easily. Only our mighty leader can put an end to this King's rule."

"Yeah, if things continue like this then we won't able to earn any money." While the gang members were talking to each other, they suddenly heard a loud sound.

Boooom!

Everyone looked at their left side, only to see two figures fighting each other.

Aditya charged forward aiming his sword at Amir's neck but at the last moment, the pirate leader sent the young dragon flying with a kick on his stomach.

Aditya was pushed 5 meters back. 'That kick almost broke my ribs. I have to be careful.' Ignoring the pain in his stomach, Aditya quickly used one of his skills.

Molten Bolt!

A crimson red volt of lightning was sent forward in Amir's direction.

Being a Middle 2nd-order body cultivator, Amir quickly bent his back and narrowly dodged the molten volt by only a few inches. When the volt passed by his chest, Amir in a small second was able to feel the terrifying temperature of the attack.

Aditya knew that Amir could dodge his attack, he wasn't foolish enough to think that his attack would hit a Middle 2nd order. The young dragon quickly charged at Amir as soon as he fired the molten bolt.

'System, add all of my free stats to my agility.'

Just after dodging the molten bolt, Amir's eyes landed on Aditya. 'That attack was so powerful. I can't let his attack hit me. Otherwise, I will be doomed.' As Amir prepared to engage Aditya in close range, he widened his eyes in shock.

"What the...Clang!"

When Aditya was only 3 meters away, his speed suddenly increased. As Amir noticed the tip of the sword that was about to touch his chest while gritting his teeth Amir somehow managed to use his dagger to block the attack.

Clang!

"I thought this would be enough to end your life." Aditya looked at the small cut on Amir's chest.

Fiery Blaze!

The next second Amir was greeted with a huge wave of red flame coming from his right side. Without thinking anything, just relaying on his instinct Amir quickly moved to the left side. But just when Amir moved to his left, he noticed a sly smile on Aditya's face.

'Something is wrong'

Before he could understand what was going on, just when Amir took a 4th step towards the left, his left leg was on fire.

Ahhhh!

All the criminals and thugs in the western part of the city heard the loud and painful scream of Amir. Amir quickly looked down. A horrified look appeared on Amir's face seeing the lave right under his left foot.

Molten Bolt!

Without wasting any time, Aditya put his both palms together. A powerful red-orange volt of lightning shot towards Amir and hit his chest.

Bang!

Amir was sent flying more than 15 meters away. He directly crushed the city walls, as the walls beneath him cracked.

Cough!

Looking at the figure who was standing 20 meters away as red flame danced around his body, Amir at the moment of his death had only one question in his mind.

"How?"

After a few seconds, the pirate leader's eyes turned lifeless. His entire body was still stuck on the city wall. The molten volt had burned his chest, shoulders, and his thighs.

[Ding! The host has leveled up. The host stats have been increased by 1 point. The host has received 2 free points.]

[Ding! The host has leveled up.....]

'I wouldn't have won the fight if I had not used my Eruption Wave. The Eruption Wave allows me to control lava at a certain range. I already had created this trap when we landed on the ground. All I had to do was lure Amir into the correct position. So I used the Fiery Blaze to launch a fake wave of fire to move Amir towards the trap. Just when his feet touched the lava, I knew I had found my opportunity.' Instant learning and adaptation is a terrifying skill. Just when the battle started, Aditya's mind has been working on finding perfect counters against his opponent. Both Aditya's had never killed any human or any animal. But thanks to the Silence mind, Aditya's mind remained calm in this situation.

"Now that I have taken care of the root, it's time to clean the rest and plunder everything." The next second, Aditya vanished from his place. What happened next could be said in a few words, Pure Slaughter.

At late night, when the people of Azure city were sleeping peacefully, the western part of the city, where most of the gangs were located heard the screams of the Vile Crew gang. Aditya went on a complete rampage against the 200 members of the Vile gang. That night, Aditya had dyed his sword and his black cloak with the blood of vile crew gang members.

The slaughter ended within 5 minutes. But that 5 minutes was one of the most frightening times in Azure city. Small other small gangs who were allies of the Vile Crew tried to stop Aditya. The Blaze Dragon of course wasn't going to let those people leave. After killing the 200+ members of the vile crew, he went to kill the nearby small gangs.

By the time, Aditya stopped the whole western part of the Azure city was in chaos. Flames were burning the hideouts of the gangs, the roads were dyed in red blood, and corpses were lying on the streets.

When the slaughter finally ended, Aditya had massacred more than [600+] criminals within 30 minutes. The people who saw Aditya that night were traumatized. Those unfortunate people witnessed how brutally Aditya killed his victims.

At some point, when Aditya's killing count reached [500+], the criminals nearby the area were running for their lives. However, other than ordinary people, no other criminal who saw Aditya was left alive. Since most of the criminals were only first-order body cultivators, no one was able to give challenge Aditya.

After dealing with the gangs, Aditya took all of their spoils back to the castle. After doing all that, Aditya without making any noise left the Azure city as he had something important to do.

Scene change

A long time ago when the Istarin Dynasty was founded, three powerhouses came together to form Istarin Dynasty. The first king of the Istarin Dynasty gave the other two powerhouses two cities near the borders of the Zulux Dynasty and the Nepoca Kingdom. Both Cities also acted as fortress to defend the Istarin Dynasty from both neighboring Kingdoms.

Located in the northeast part of the Istarin Dynasty, the Eastgard Noble house, governed Zraka City. For generations, the Eastgard Noble house has been governing and also guarding Zraka City against intruders. While in the western part of the Istarin Dynasty, located near the borders, the Sarlus Noble house, defended the Vrane City.

Both Rulers of the Zraka and Vrane Cities were dissatisfied and were angry about the fact that king Ahmed choose a person who can't even awaken his bloodline as their next king. Both noble houses were very unhappy with the decision.

Due to Aditya's years of negligence towards the Istarin Dynasty, both noble houses began to operate on their own. Both noble houses stopped paying taxes. Instead, both noble houses invested heavily in the military increasing their number of troops.

The Eastgard Noble house who ruled the Zraka City went as far as to cut off all the connections with the Istarin King. The Eastgard Noble house began to act independently on an unofficial note. Ryan Eastgard who was the ruler of the Zraka city and the head of the Eastgard noble house decided to take things to the next step. Unlike his ancestors who swore to serve the King of the Istarin Dynasty, Ryan was an ambitious man who wanted to conquer and expand his territories. He wanted to become the Emperor.

In a large hall that has been decorated with gold and red carpet, sitting on a luxurious chair, the Zraka City ruler Ryan listened to the reports.

"Sire, I got some serious news from the Azure city." The commander of Eastgard noble house, Zayne kneeled in front of Ryan who now called himself the King of the Zraka city.

"What news?" Zayne gritted his teeth and replied while lowering his head.

"Today, under King Aditya's order, one of the biggest merchant families in the Azure city was publicly executed for not paying Taxes. Not only that King Aditya also sent a warning message to other merchants in the city to pay the taxes."

Ryan was a middle-aged man with long white-silver hair that reached down his waist. He always carried a sword on his waist. Despite looking like 30 years old, Ryan was actually 60 years old. Being a handsome man, Ryan had multiple wives and concubines.

At this moment, the handsome ruler of the Zraka city didn't look too pleased.

"Zayne didn't I tell you to not call that bastard this formally. He doesn't deserve to be the King."

"I apologize, your Majesty." Zayne tried his best to not show his anger.

Zayne was a commoner from a small village located near the Azure King city. Zayne became a soldier with the intention of serving this Dynasty. Zayne wanted to protect his village so he came to Zraka city. Being a talented man, Zayne quickly rose in the ranks. Eventually, he became the commander just after 4 years of his service.

Everything was going great for him until he learned the truth. Ryan wanted to expand his territory. So began to expand his territory towards the Silver Meadow Grove forest. However, in the process of doing that, Ryan's cruel orders have forced Zayne to take the lives of many innocent people. Not only that Ryan was also planning on betraying King Aditya in a few months.

"Alright, you may leave." Ryan stood up and after bowing his head even though he didn't want to, Zayne left the mansion. After leaving the Mansion, Zayne wrote a message to a certain person without anyone knowing about it.
