Dragon Monarch System

Chapter 766:- Letter - Communication

The Dune Sovereignty

It was early in the morning in the capital of The Dune Sovereignty Empire. The sun of the desert continent is as intense as ever.

The capital of the empire was bustling with activities. Everything was going as usual. Knock!! Knock!!!

”Come in...!!” A sleepy voice reached the ears of the Maid who just knocked. Click..!!

As she stepped inside, her gaze fell on the figure sleeping on the bed. Her whole body was covered with a blanket, curled up into one big ball. Sigh.....!!!

The maid sighed seeing 3 pillows on the floor next to the bed. There were a few more pillows on various parts of the bed. The woman sleeping on the bed was not resting her head on a pillow.

”Somethings never change.....!!” The maid murmured in a low tone. Her lady had a habit of throwing things around the room. Since she was a child, she has been like this. And even now, despite being over a few centuries old, she still hasnʼt changed. After one century, her maids have stopped trying to change this bad habit of their Lady. Without saying any word, Her maid picked up all the pillows and placed them on a chair until until Her Lady woke up and left the bed. Aside from scattered pillows around the bed, there was also a towel, and a few dresses lying around her bed. It seems last night, after changing their Lady never bothered to put them away. Sigh....!!

The maid then approached the lady. She noticed a book next to her. ”What is that?” But that wasnʼt important. For now, it was important to wake her up. Today was an important day for Soraya.

”Milady, please wake up!! Itʼs already 8 in the morning.” When Sorayaʼs mom was alive, Soraya was never allowed to sleep for this long. Usually, everyone in the Royal Castle woke up before 7 in the morning and had to be present at the dining table by 7.20. But today was different. The Emperor, Sorayaʼs father, had left the Roya Castle last night. Soraya was told that King Charles wonʼt be returning before the Afternoon. Apparently, he has some things to take care of and also he has a wedding to attend. But Soraya knew that the wedding party was nothing but an excuse. As for her brother, Garrick made himself busy with other work. Besides, the Crown Prince was notorious for bringing random women to the Royal Castle to sleep with.

It was King Charles who insisted on having breakfast with his two children. This wasnʼt done out of love or longing for his daughter. This was done so that if Charles had anything to tell Soraya, he could say it while having breakfast. This helped in saving time. ”Liora, let me sleep for a little longer...!!” Liora heard a sleepy lazy voice from under the blanket. Soraya wanted to sleep a little longer. She always struggled to wake up early in the morning, and sleeping in the morning just felt so different. ”Milady, I think you forgot that you were supposed to attend a party today.” Although Soraya was heavily restricted to the places where she could go, when it came to socializing, such as going to events organized by the wives of the Dukes, the King usually gave her the green light to go. Hearing this, Sorayaʼs eyes snapped open under the blanket. ʼOh....!! I completely forgot about the party.ʼ Although the party didnʼt start until this evening, she had to make preparations for the party. She wasnʼt that fond of attending parties. However, these parties served as an excellent way of gathering information about the various things that were happening around the Empire. This was one of many sources of gathering information. So even though she was reluctant to attend parties where everyone licked her boots to gain her favor, she still attended them and connected with everyone with a big fake smile on her face. Liora is Sorayaʼs longest-serving Maid. She is completely loyal to Soraya and no one else. Liora has been serving Soraya since the moment she was born. Her mom specifically recruited the 18-year-old Liora at that time to be groomed as Sorayaʼs personal attendant. Liora is very dependable and trustworthy and often acts as a confidante for Sorayaʼs deepest thoughts and concerns. Liora looked like a young woman in her 30s. She was a Beginner 4th-order cultivator and the strongest among Sorayaʼs maids. Liora was 6 feet tall, which was really tall for a human. This sometimes made Soraya wonder if her most trusted and loyal maid was half a Beast-human. But that was highly unlikely. She was just one of those rare ones. Soraya sometimes felt a little envious of her long, beautiful legs. Men seem to love her long legs. Liora had black hair that she tied into a ponytail. Her hair was neither too short nor too long. Liora was also really beautiful. She was fair-skinned and the mole just next to her left eye made her even more beautiful.

Liora had a modest figure that always hid under the long white maid dress. The long skirt hides her legs. Her legs were wrapped in white stockings. Liora was a stoic type of woman. It was a part of her personality. She very rarely spoke. While dedicating her life to Lady Soraya, Liora vowed to never get married. And even if she did, she would do so only after Her Lady has gotten married. Soraya came out of the blanket.

”Milady, Do you know what time it is?” The maid asked in a stern tone. ”I am awake!! Hehe!!” But her maid didnʼt laugh with her. ”Hey!! I just slept an hour extra.” Soraya felt that her maid was overreacting. ”Milady, a letter from the Istarin Empire arrived not so long ago.” Hearing this, Soraya widened her eyes, realizing the importance of needing to wake up much earlier.

”Where is it? Give it to me!!!” Her relationship with the Istarin Empire will be the only way she can escape all this mess. She will be saved even if her father and brother fall, which she wonʼt care much about. From the beginning, she has been against her father and brother. She never liked what they were doing, and she never liked the fact that their Empire had to be in constant war so that the weak leaves could be removed. Liora took the letter from the storage ring. Given its secrecy and importance, Liora didnʼt dare keep it out in the open. Who knows what might happen if it fell into the hands of the Crown Prince or the Emperor? ”Here, you go!!!” The Emperor himself wrote the letter by hand. Since the Emperor himself wrote this letter to her, this showed the importance that the Emperor gave to Soraya and the communication between them. Compared to what Aditya was offering, Soraya didnʼt have much to offer. Fortunately, it looked like, the Emperor did not want much from her either. All the Empire and the Emperor wanted was to eliminate their enemies, King Charles and the Crown Prince. If Aditya can do this without needing to go to war, then he is more than willing to do so. [Miss Soraya, I have gone to great lengths to ensure this letter reaches you safely. At the back of the letter, you will find a personʼs name along with some information about him. If you need to deliver any letter to me, then you can approach him.]

[This man is loyal to me. You will always find him at the training ground. Right now, he has disguised himself as a Knight. You can send your most trusted maid to deliver the letter to him.]

ʼPreviously, I had so much trouble sending a letter to the Istarin Empire. But with this, all of my worries have been resolved.ʼ Soraya was relieved to read. She didnʼt think the Emperor would do this for her. This was very unexpected. What Aditya did really surprised her. ʼHow thoughtful of the Emperor....!!!ʼ This simple move improved Adityaʼs impression in Sorayaʼs mind. Since the Emperor was willing to do even this small thing for her, it went to show just how much he cared about their communication. [The aim of this letter is to address a few things. First, we have planted seeds that will hopefully destroy King Charles and Prince Garrick.]

[Thanks to all the information you provided in your second letter, we have been able to execute this plan of ours. Otherwise, it would have taken us years to accumulate this much information about the Emperor and the Crown Prince. Or we would have needed to form some other plan to take down our enemies.]

[Moving forward, we hope you will continue to provide us with any information we might require to strengthen, improve, or change our plan. We hope that you will tell us if anything changes in the Royal Castle.]

Soraya nodded after reading this. She was prepared to do this. [One last thing: the Istarin Empire has always been fair towards allies and its neighbors. We never start a conflict unless we are provoked first. Our history is proof of this. And we will continue with policy moving forward into the future.]

[If, before all of this ends, your father and brother change, then we will immediately give up our plan. What the Istarin Empire ultimately hopes to achieve is peace. We do not want war, nor do we promote war.]

After reading the last part, Soraya felt complicated. The chances of her brother and father changing are next to zero. If they did change, she would be the first one to stand with them.
