Swoosh!

Both Amber and Aditya disappeared with the passing wind.

“Where did they go?” The 1st-order soldier who has been following them in secret moved his head in other directions to search for the suspicious couples that entered the Asharc city.

“Looking for us?” In the darkness of the night, both Amber and Aditya appeared on the top of a roof. The soldier nearly jumped in fright when he heard a male voice as a hand grabbed his right shoulder.

Just when he turned his head, from the darkness two pairs of light yellow glowing eyes stared at the soldier for a second before the eyes of the soldier turned lifeless.

[Hypnosis!]

“Its’ done. Your Majesty can ask or order him anything that you want.” One of the new skills that she learned was Hypnosis. The skill only worked when the target has a weak mind or weak will. At her current level, she can only Hypnotize Mid-1st orders.

Scene change

“Bro, I heard that a prostitute house has opened in the western part of the city. I think we should check it out when we have some free time. With our identity, we should get some discounts.”

“Sure, I have no problem.”

“The sad part is I don’t think at this time we will get any vacation. Given how the Istarin Kingdom has just robbed us by fooling the whole dynasty, I don’t think the hatred between the two Kingdoms will end anytime soon.”_.

Currently, in the training camp, around 4,000 soldiers were resting while the other 4,000 was working. The soldiers working time was divided into two shifts. Each shift was 12 hours long of hard work. During their working hours, non of the soldiers were allowed to leave the training camp. After every 15 days, the 8,000 soldiers would be replaced by another group who previously were guarding the nearby towns and the borders. This cycle continued for 15 to 30 years until a soldier reached the age of 40 to 55. There were even some soldiers who would retire only after reaching 70+. The life of a cultivator was long. Even a [70+] 1st-order soldier can beat the strongest men on earth by using 1/10th of his total strength.

The training camp was located on the northern side of the city. The training camp was built on an open field with thousands of tents. Each tent was big enough to let 4 soldiers sleep in comfort. Between the tents, there were big campfires meant to keep the tents warm during the night times. The entire training camp was restricted to the public. The training camp was surrounded by 2 meters long wooden walls.

Other than the 8,000 soldiers who had to work in two shifts, there was also a special unit. The special unit had over 1,500. The unit was created for emergency purposes.

“Brother, let’s get our food.” Currently, all the soldiers in the training camp were waiting in line to get their dinner. The soldiers are fed high-quality magical beast meat that is very healthy and nutritious for a cultivator’s body.

“I heard today we are going to have the chance of eating the meat of Snow Bear.” Just as the soldier extended his hand to get the tray, his entire body exploded like a water balloon.

Bang!

“What just happened?” Seeing the red blood and the small pieces of scattered meat on the ground, many soldiers who saw this scene panicked as fear took over their hearts.

“Hehe!” Everyone felt a shiver running down their spine when they saw a golden magic circle appear in front of them, the magic circle was about 20 meters in size. What scared them the most was when they saw all the corpses in the magic circle.

“…Amber, there is no way to scare them like that.” Everyone turned to their right to see a handsome young man and a woman who is extremely beautiful and seductive, walking in their direction.

Amber covered her mouth as she giggled slightly causing her round breasts to bounce slightly but no one had the mood to appreciate this view. “Hehe! Your Majesty, I just wanted to test my illusion magic. It seems at my current level, I can only do this much.”

Today Aditya found that one of his generals likes to torture the opponent using illusion magic. “Let’s finish this quick and fast.” The Crimson Dragon Wrath sword appeared in his right hand. Red-orange looking lightning began to flicker around Aditya’s body making cracking sounds. The next second, the Crimson Dragon vanished from his place.

Swoosh!

Bang!

When Aditya reappeared, more than 200 soldiers were dead as their heads were cut off. The remaining soldiers who were previously standing in the line panicked. One of the soldiers took out a red orb and activated the orb using mana. As the red orb glowed in bright red color, his words were heard all over the city.

[Red alert. We have two intruders at the training camp. Requesting back for backup.] The voice was heard all over the city. With the red alert, the guards quickly closed the two gates and activated the mana shield that covered the whole city. The troops who previously were patrolling the city now was rushing in the direction of the training camp. Even the governor of this city, John Mitchell rushed out of his Mansion and went in the direction of the training camp.

“Everyone we will just have to hold them until the Governor himself arrives.” With each passing second more and more soldiers gathered with their weapons. Within 5 minutes more than 5,000 soldiers surrounded Aditya and Amber. However, despite being surrounded by 5,000 and increasing soldiers, neither the fox queen nor the Crimson Dragon showed any look of nervousness or fear.

“Who is it?” After about 7 and a half minutes, everyone heard a loud voice. The soldier’s eyes brightened with hope hearing the voice. Even if they had no hope of defeating this 2nd-order, their governor had the power to kill anyone under the 3rd-order. Now that their governor was here they had nothing to worry about.

Swoosh!

When the strong wind finally left, a man holding a lance stood 9 meters away from Aditya and Amber. For a brief moment, no one dared to speak anything. Both sides just stared at each other, trying to measure the opponent’s power in silence.

“It’s nice to meet you, Lord John Mitchell.” The man named John Mitchell was about 6 feet tall, with a round bald head that perfectly reflected the moonlight. He had a fairly muscular body. What made Aditya and Amber most surprised was his fashion. He was wearing pink color pajamas.

“…..That’s an interesting Pajamas you got there.” Hearing Aditya’s words, John’s lowered his head only to realize that in a hurry he wore his wife’s pajamas and came here. It was not just Aditya and Amber who wanted to laugh even the soldiers of John wanted to roll on the ground and laugh.

“Hmph! Dragon King, I don’t know if I should thank heaven for sending you to me. Today, I will capture you and present you to his Majesty.” Since Aditya was no longer hiding his face, John was able to recognize him in a matter of seconds.

“My pink clown, have you ever seen fireworks?” John can’t express how humiliated felt when Aditya called him Pink clown.

“What are you talking about?” Not understanding what Aditya was referring to, John asked back.

“Let me demonstrate it for you.” Under the gaze of more than 10,000 soldiers, Aditya raised his right hand and snapped.

Snap!

With the snap, a huge loud explosion took place.

Boooooooom!

The explosion shook the entire Asharc city to its core. No one had expected something like this to happen. When the explosion ended, another series of explosions kept taking place. With each explosion, John’s face kept turning more and more paler.

Boom! Boom! Booom!

“What is happening?” The earthquake produced due to the explosion caused some soldiers to fall to the ground.

After about 1 minute, the explosion sounds finally died down. But in just one minute, 97 explosions took place, shaking the entire city and destroying many things.

“What…did you really do?” John’s entire body trembled as he looked at Aditya.

“Nothing much. I just made it easier for my troops to attack this city.” John was ready for anything but this sentence. His entire body shuddered in fear as his pale turned pale. His lips trembled while his eyes flashed in fear of death. With the contract binding him, he can’t surrender which would mean betraying King Sebastian meaning his death. While the enemy wasn’t going to spare him either. In both ways, he was a dead person.

It was not just Sebastian, but also the 10,000 soldiers who had surrounded Aditya who paled hearing his words.

“How did you do it?” John weakly fell to his knees as he dropped the lance that he was holding before. There was no hope left in his eyes. Either way, he and his family was going to die due to the contract.

“What I was…..Flashback!!!

Standing on the top of a mountain, Aditya and Nathan were looking in the direction of Asharc city. “Nathan, take this storage ring with you.” Nathan took the golden ring with a Crimson stone and looked at his king in confusion. His gaze was curious and filled with questions.

“This storage ring has over 100 explosive runes. Each rune can end the life of a second-order in an instant.” These types of runes took a lot of time to draw. Aditya was able to make 100 explosive paper talismans after a total of 100 hours of hard work.

Nathan for a moment looked shocked hearing the words of his Majesty. He looked down at the storage ring and carefully placed the ring in his pocket. “To pull off our plan, I want you to place all the paper rune talismans on the walls of the Asharc city.”

Flashback ends

“You can draw runes?” John nearly felt like dying in shock. In this world, Runemasters were very rare. Even a 4-tier Kingdom would struggle to find get a 1st-order Rune Master in their faction.

“I am an allrounder.” Aditya smiled as he stared at the fearful faces of the 10,000 soldiers.

“I have given my army the signal they needed. It’s time to shed some blood.”

Swoosh!

The next moment, under the disbelieving gazes of 10,000 the head of governor John was cut in half.

[Ding! You have killed a Mid 2nd-Order cultivator. You have gained experience points.]

[Ding! You have leveled up.]

[Ding1 You have leveled up.]

[Ding! You have leveled up.]

[Ding1 You have leveled up.]

[Ding! You have leveled u…..]

The soldiers couldn’t block a single strike of Aditya and Amber. Both of them danced in the crowd of soldiers. That night, the Asharc city is said to have experienced the cruelest night in the history of its creation.

Crimson Blink!

From the hundreds of bolts of lightning began striking the soldiers. Each time a lightning bolt hit a soldier, that soldier’s body would explode like a water balloon.

Aditya madly swung the Crimson Dragon wrath sword while Amber used this chance to practice her illusion magic. This wasn’t a fight. It was rather a one-sided massacre that dyed the entire training camp with a river of blood and countless corpses. The whole fight continued until 10,000 soldiers were killed by both.

By the time when Aditya’s troops came, the fight had long ended. Aditya and Amber were waiting for the troops to occupy their new territory, the Asharc city. All the troops, even the war prisoners who previously were soldiers of the Zulux Dynasty were shocked to see how quickly Aditya managed to capture the Asharc city. The whole process was smooth. Within a single night, Aditya conquered about 10% of the Zulux Dynasty territory.
