Dragon Monarch System

Chapter 7

The Istarin Dynasty, one of the smallest Kingdoms on the continent of the Dying Isle was located at the bottom of the map, near the sea. The Istarin Dynasty was said to be found when all the local fishermen came together under a single rule.

When Aditya was thrown out of the royal family, the Istarin Dynasty king whose name was Ahmed decided to adopt Aditya so that the young dragon can take over the Dynasty when the old Ahmed died. The old Ahmed had lost in wife and son in an assassin attack that happened 9 years ago. After that being a man who dearly loved his wife, Ahmed never married anyone and died of old age.

The Istarin Dynasty was very small, having only 23 square kilometers of area. Despite being one of the smallest kingdoms in the Dying Isle continent, the Istarin Dynasty managed to thrive and prosper because of the natural minerals found in this land.

The Kingdom’s economy was very stable until Ahmed died 3 years ago. When Aditya became the king, his lack of care and his attachment to alcohol gave the two nobles of the Istarin Kingdom the chance to rise in power. With no King keeping them in check, in 3 years both nobles looted the entire Istarin Kingdom in daylight.

This caused the economy of the Kingdom to fall down. Even the capital which was supposed to be the most prosperous city of a Kingdom even fall. The people and the noble stopped being bothered by the King who was an alcohol addict. As a result, the crime rate in the Istarin Dynasty began to increase. The dynasty that once was very prosperous now was on the verge of collapsing.

This made the other two kingdoms with whom the Istarin Dynasty shares their borders with to be very happy.

The Istarin dynasty was located on the eastern edge of the continent. The dynasty shared boundaries with the Kingdom of Nepoca Empire in the North and sharing boundaries with Zulux Dynasty in the North-west.

In the south, the dynasty shared borders with the forest of Silver Meadow Grove. Being located at the edge of the continent, the dynasty had something that most Kingdoms didn’t have. And that was accessibility to the sea. (I have drawn a rough map of the Three Kingdoms. If you don’t understand then you can take a look at it.)

The Istarin Dynasty was in the most strategic location to build a port and start international trading. Unfortunately, the previous King Ahmed never thought of building any port as he was afraid. Because the Nepoca Kingdom located in the North also had its eyes set on the Istarin dynasty for that very reason. Building a port on the western edge of the continent would make international trade easier and less time-consuming. The huge chunk of coins that one can earn just from building this port was enough to start wars.

During King Ahmed’s time, it was predicted that the natural resources in the land of Istarin would soon exhaust. Meaning, that the future generation would have to find a new source of earnings. However, king Ahmed never took the steps forward in building the port, as it could potentially start a war with the Kingdom of Nepoca.

However, Aditya was very different from king Ahmed. Being a man who has worked for the prime minister, Aditya’s ambition has no bounds. There was no way he would drop the plan of building the port city just because another Kingdom had its eyes on them.

In this world, the territories of small Kingdoms and dynasties kept changing. There was no peace. Even in the present moment, there were 2 small kingdoms located on the Dying Isle that were having a war. Whenever there is a war, neighboring lands would receive the most benefits. Sometimes the captured warriors would be crippled and sold off as slaves. Meaning that whenever a war started, the number of slaves in the markets also increased.

If Aditya wanted to build a strong kingdom then he would eventually have to start his plan of building the port city. Meaning the clash with the Nepoca Kingdom was something that will happen in the upcoming months.

Before the young Dragon could shift his focus on launching his plan, he would have to clean the pest from his Kingdom. Aditya has been thinking of dealing with the nobles for a while now. Fortunately, luck was on his side. As he had someone who could let him use the slaves with cripple mana hearts.

“Sir, my name is Scott Young. As you can see, I am a dark elf.” In front of Aditya, there 22 years old young man who was the same height as Aditya. Being a dark elf, Scott’s skin was darker than others. But this did not mean that Scott was ugly. In fact, Scott was a handsome young man with short spiky dark hair and brown pupil. Scott was an excellent bow user.

“I am Tyler Ryan.” Tyler was a man with a muscular built body. He was 6 feet tall. Tyler was about 39 years old. The scars on his hands and the long scar on his cheek were proof of how experienced he was in fighting. Before becoming a slave, Tyler had fought multiple wars. It was only when he faced a third-order body cultivator, that his mana heart was crippled and he was sold off as a slave. Unlike Scott, Tyler was a greatsword user.

“Nathan Owen” Nathan like a real ninja covered his nose and mouth with a mask. Only his eyes and the upper part of the cheeks can be seen. Nathan had dark red hair that covered his left eye and red pupil. Nathan used to be an assassin before he was captured by his target which he was about to kill. After his mana heart was crippled, he became a slave. Unlike Tyler, Nathan is a dagger user and his class was Assassin.

“I am Josh Dawson.” Josh was a man from a lion tribe. In this world, various races live together. One of those races was the Lion tribe. The lion tribe had the body of a human with the face of a lion. Their entire bodies were covered in thick fur. Any beast race man and woman was far stronger and muscular than humans. Even though Josh had lost his cultivation, being a beast-man he still had enough raw power to tear even a second-order human. After dragons, lions had the rawest strength.

Just like any other beast-man, Josh was 7 feet tall and had a muscular built body. Josh had red hair and used a giant hammer as his weapon.

“I am Amber Lawrence. Please do thank Miss Julia for giving me this beautiful Kimono.” Amber here was also a beastmen from the fox race. Unlike Josh, Amber’s body was 5 feet 6 inches tall. She had long yellow hair, fox ears, and 9 fluffy tails. The color of her tails was the same as her yellow hair. Fox race women are known to have the second-most charm after the succubus race.

Just like any other fox race woman, Amber had a seductive body that she tried to hide by wearing red kimono that further enhanced her beauty. It was like nothing can escape her yellow pupils. It was a shame that Amber’s face was ruining long scars that resulted in no one wanting to buy her.

“I am Eleanor Reid.” Eleanor was human. Eleanor had long black hair that covered her eyes. She looked a little shy. Just like Nathan, Eleanor also used to work as Assassin.

“I am Henry Ward.” Henry was another human that Watson bought. Henry was a commander of a small dynasty. But in the war, his forces were killed and he was captured. The enemy tortured him for days before selling him off as a slave. Henry held a normal sword. Unlike others, the coldness and hatred in his eyes were more clear. Just looking at him, one could tell that he was thirsty for blood.

‘The 7 of them specialize in something unique, maybe except for Eleanor. I don’t what is her specialty. Whatever I ask her later. Among the 7 slaves, it seems Julia has taken a liking to Amber. Since 7 of them specialize in something unique, I can divide the newly recruited troops into 7 divisions and let 7 of them train the new troops of their division.” Aditya had decided to appoint the 7 of them as the future head of 7 divisions. Each division will be unique and will specialize in one thing.

In the future, the 7 slaves would go on to become world-famous generals that no empire wants to face.

After a simple introduction, Aditya asked them to show their power and abilities. This continued for an hour before Aditya left with a satisfied smile. Aditya was very impressed by Watson. Each individual had shown the potential that they had inside of them.

“It looks like killing low-level beings won’t give me any Experience points. I need to hunt bigger fish if I want to level up. As the King of the Istarin Dynasty, there is no way I can fall behind my own generals. I have to get stronger.” For now, Aditya decided to save 10 free stats points for the future.

“It would be a waste to not use my Instant learning and adaptation skill.” Now that Aditya temporarily had some free time, he decided to head to the library and do some research.
