Chapter 342 342:- Alliance Meeting [I]
?
When the bright golden light dimmed down, in front of Aditya, there were around 9,500 Dragonians. Spencer had picked 2nd-order soldiers to become Dragonians. Now most of them had become 3rd-order cultivators. The ones that were still stuck in the second order were very close to breaking through the third order.
'With this, now I have more than 20,000 Dragonians. Normally I would like to have more Dragonians but turning almost 10,000 soldiers into Dragonians does put a burden on my mental health. Not to mention the huge amount of Mana that I had to exhaust. The biggest obstacle was my own blood. I had to take out 9469 drops of blood. Taking out this much blood will definitely leave me weakened. Fortunately, I have Julia's special pill. Consuming the pill, within a day or two, I should be able to recover all of my lost blood.'
'Also not all soldiers are qualified to become Dragonians. I had asked Spencer to pick the exceptional ones to become Dragonians.' Aditya believed that 20,000 Dragonians were more than enough.
If he pushed his body any more than that, Aditya would collapse right before the war. This is something that he desperately needed to avoid. The pills that Julia made can be consumed once every week. Consuming several pills within the same week neither increases the recovery rate nor gives an extra boost. It does the opposite. If this pill is taken more than once a week, then it permanently harms the body.
'I still have my Dragon Warriors army. Not to mention the fact that each Dragonian will be given a full body armor set according to their cultivation rank. They would be given various kinds of pills which would allow them to quickly recover and fight for a long time.' Fortunately, Julia and Paige had a stock of pills for emergency use.
"Everyone can now return back to your division and take orders from your Captain. You all are free to cultivate in the Dragon Palace if you have free time before you're deployed."
"One more thing, before you're deployed, I suggest you write a letter to your loved ones or to your family. As this War will continue for a while. It might be a while before you guys can return home." Aditya didn't add the bitter fact that some of them may never return from the battlefield. He just hoped that the Dragonians understood what he was trying to say.
A Farewell letter.....
As the Dragonians left, the throne hall became empty again. Spencer was making a list of resources that they had and the things that they needed in this war. While Watson was back to his Prime Minister job again. Though this time, it's only temporary. After the war, he would return back to his original job of being a butler.
"Your Majesty, the Alliance members are here," Watson said to Aditya in a low tone.
Aditya closed his eyes and sensed that some foreign people trying to enter the Dragon Palace. But they did not take the final step. These people were familiar to Aditya. There was the Echo Dominion Emperor, Adam, Duke Campbell, The Thera Kingdom's King and commander, and lastly, the Storm Isle Dynasty's Empress. They had bought some powerful guards with them.
Without Aditya's permission, no outsider can enter or exit the Dragon Palace. He just needed to think to let them enter.
Aditya put his hand on Watson's shoulder. The next moment both of them teleported to the entrance of the Dragon Palace.

Meanwhile,
"This is the Dragon palace...." Everyone couldn't stop staring at the Dragon Palace. The Palace was no doubt the best architecture that was ever built.
"Seeing the Dragon Palace, for some reason my own Palace feels like a beggar's house." The Echo Dominion Emperor, Daxton Ferguson looked at the Dragon palace in envy. He has long heard of the unrivaled beauty and majesty of the Dragon Palace. Seeing it with his own eyes made Daxton believe that no other Palace can be compared to the Dragon Palace.
"I feel as if a God himself has built this Dragon Palace." Campbell murmured in a low tone.
The guards who heard Campbell's words nodded their heads while staring at the Dragon Palace. They felt just being able to look at something like this, their eyes were blessed.
The Thera Kingdom's King and the Commander and the Storm Isle Dynasty's Empress had similar reactions. Everyone was in a daze while staring at the Dragon Palace.
Seeing Aditya suddenly teleporting in front of them, everyone was shocked. Campbell felt his heart nearly stopping.
"Hello, Everyone! Welcome to the Istarin Empire. Please come inside." Regardless of their social standing and powers, Aditya treated his allies with respect and with dignity.
As everyone walked in, they saw more of the Dragon Palace. They were able to see the powerful beings who lived here.
"Such a powerful presence." Emperor Daxton felt a sweat rolling down his neck. If Aditya wanted to he could end everyone's life here within a few minutes and no one would know anything about it.
'So many powerful presences. Aditya has been hiding true strength from the world all along.' Thought Campbell as he looked around. Campbell now felt more assured about this war.
The Thera King and the Storm Isle Empress had similar expressions on their faces. As for the guards, they were trembling in fear. How they were supposed to protect their Kings and Empress from such powerful people? They felt like crying but their eyes had no tears.
From the outside, no one is able to feel anything within the Dragon Palace but when coming inside, it was a different story.
'The Mana density in this place is really high. If I also had something like this, then within a decade or two, I could build an army that is strong enough to defeat the Echo Nexus Empire and the Oracle Alliance alone. Later when I have time, I must ask Aditya to tell me the way to build something like this.'
Little did Daxton know how childish and ridiculous his thoughts were. Aditya can build only one Dragon Palace. And he was able to do it because of the system. Not to mention, the huge amount of resources that he had to gather to build this. Even if Daxton manages to gather all the materials that Aditya gathered, without a system, he can't build the Dragon Palace. And not even a God would be able to copy the Dragon Palace.
Aditya led them to the meeting room which Watson had prepared. On their way to the Meeting room, everyone got to see many things. The more time they spent here, the more they realized just how valuable the Dragon Palace was. This Palace was a treasure itself.
"Please sit." Everyone sat around the round-shaped table. On top of the table, there was a giant map of the Dying Isle continent. Several points on the map had been marked with red pencils. These marked points are the places where Aditya was expecting the Echo Nexus Empire to attack in the upcoming days.
Aditya sat next to Echo Dominion Emperor, Daxton. He made Adam sit on his right. This symbolized the close relationship that Aditya had with the Echo Dominion Empire.
"Your Majesty, I will just stand behind you." Duke Campbell refused to sit next to the Emperor thinking that Daxton would take this as a sign of disrespect. Also, Duke Campbell didn't feel worthy of sitting next to Daxton as he was just a mere Duke. A Duke who served the Emperor.
Sigh!
"Duke Campbell, this isn't the time for worrying about such small matters. We can ignore these small things for now. Sit down." Hearing this Campbell was surprised. This was the first time he was seeing this side of Daxton. Duke Campbell nodded and then hesitantly sat down.
The Thera Kingdom's King and the commander both sat next to each other. The Storm Isle Dynasty's Empress sat on Thera King's right.
"Let's begin the meeting." Aditya took the lead. He took out a small 1-meter-long thin metal stick.
"You all are the close allies of the Istarin Empire. Even if you don't want to fight, I am afraid the Oracle Alliance will still target your Kingdom."
"Your Majesty, I think you're misunderstanding. We're here because we want to fight together with the Istarin Empire." The Empress of the Storm Isle Dynasty said. Others nodded their heads along.
Seeing this Aditya smiled and said nothing in response. In the end, they weren't helping Aditya because they were allies of the Istarin Empire. They were willing to stand alongside the Istarin Empire because of the benefits that they will receive once this War ends. This is especially true for the Echo Dominion Emperor. As for the Storm Isle Dynasty and the Thera Kingdom, both didn't have much choice.
"Your Majesty, we have another visitor."
