Dragon Monarch System

The desert ship continued to move forward. The ship was traveling through the second-largest desert in the whole world to reach the other regions of the Beast Continent. Compared to the speed at which Aditya, Sasha, Riya, Lilith, and Riya could travel, it could be said that the desert ship moved really slowly in their eyes.

Depending upon the terrain, the ship's speed could reach up to 110 Kilometers per hour. Whereas normally the ship would move at the speed of 80 kilometers per hour.

It wasn't as if Aditya and others were in a hurry. If they were, then Aditya wouldn't have brought everyone along on this journey. He especially never would have brought Lara along with them. After all, there was no specific location of the Dragon Grass.

Time flew by and before they knew it, night had fallen. The sun had set, and the sky was clear and filled with stars. The moon, shaped like a thin curve, shone brightly, adding to the beauty of the night sky.

Aditya looked around at everyone and asked, "What do you all feel like having for dinner?" He had made sure to bring a variety of foods and drinks for the trip. And they didn't have to worry about running out of vegetables or meat.

With Riya, who was the Goddess of Nature, they could always have fresh vegetables. Riya had the special ability to make plants grow, even in the desert. So, they could have fresh veggies whenever they wanted.

"I'm fine with anything," Sasha replied casually. She was busy sharpening her daggers. Everyone seemed to be doing something or the other, keeping themselves occupied as they relaxed in the comfort of the ship's living room.

"The main question should be who should cook tonight?" Julia asked this question. Although Julia knew a little bit about cooking, she didn't think she was suited for cooking dinner. She learned a little bit about cooking back when she used to work as Aditya's maid and kept her real identity hidden.

Since they did not bring any maids or servants with them, the cooking had to be done by one of them.

"I can cook." Riya excitedly raised her hand.

Hearing this everyone stopped what they were doing and looked at Riya with suspicious gazes.

"Since, when were you able to cook?" Alicia asked her with a suspicious gaze.

Hearing this Riya pouted and said in an unhappy tone. "Hey, that's rude!!! I always have been able to cook." Riya excitedly said.

Hearing this although everyone still had suspicion, no one said anything. "Alright, Riya, tonight you will be in charge of making dinner for us," Aditya said with a smile. Though he had a feeling that he was going to regret his decision.

"Alright." Riya looked really excited at the thought of cooking for Aditya and everyone.

"Hey!!! What's that?" Hearing this everyone looked outside.

Looking outside, Aditya and everyone else were surprised to see strange monsters spawning everywhere in their sights.

Seeing the monsters Aditya immediately stopped the ship.

"They are Imps." Alicia instantly recognized what kind of monsters they were.

"Imps? What are Imps?" Riya asked while staring at the Imp monsters. With each passing second the number of imps was rapidly increasing.

Looking closely, these Imp monsters looked very similar to goblins. These monsters were around a height of 1 meter. All the imps were very skinny. These monsters weren't weak at all. Even the weakest of these monsters had the strength of a Peak 4th-order cultivator. While the strongest Imps had the strength of a Peak 5th-order cultivator.

"Imps are special kinds of monsters that only can be found in the Beast Continent. These monsters appear during the nighttime." Although Aditya had heard about Imps. He did not think that on their second night in the Beast Continent, they would encounter Imp monsters.

"These Imp monsters only appear in specific hot spots in the Beast Continent. I guess, without realizing it, we were traveling through one of these hot spots and ended up being surrounded by them." Alicia said.

"What should we do now?" Asked Julia.

"We fight obviously. If we don't fight, these Imp Monsters will attack our desert ship and will destroy it and then they will attack us. When Imp monsters appear, these monsters attack any living thing in their sight." These imp monsters had the ability to sense the presence of any living being around them. It was in their instinct to attack any living being in their sight.

Following Aditya everyone came to the ship's deck. By now the Imp already had surrounded the desert ship. The number of Imps that were heading in this direction was just too many to count. All they could see was imps and imps in all directions. And the number was only growing. As from all directions, more and more imps were heading in their direction.

"First we must prevent these imps from attacking our ship." Aditya that Aditya snapped his fingers. Suddenly a crimson wall of flame started forming around the entire ship. As the Crimson flame wall formed around the ships, everyone noticed that the imps had started backing down but they did not leave. Instead, they were waiting for 10 meters away from the crimson flame wall staring at the ship.

"The Sun and Flames are one of the major weaknesses of Imp monsters," Aditya explained why his Crimson flame wall stopped the Imp monsters from attacking their desert ship.

"Judging from the color of the Imps there are three types of Imps."

There were three different colors of Imps. The most common type of Imp monster was the green-skinned Imp monster. These green imps had green tail 'flames'. And two black horns growing from their forehead. These green imps looked a lot similar to Goblins. However, unlike goblins, these Img monsters had claws, and horns growing from their forehead. These imps did not have any gender. The green imps were melee fighters. Meaning that these green imps cannot use spells or elemental magic.

The second most common type of Imp monster was the orange-skinned Imp. These orange-skinned Imps were Archer Imps. They had a bow in their hand and a bunch of iron arrows in their quivers which was placed on their backs. The orange-skinned imps had an orange color flame on their tails. Unlike the green imps, these imps did not have any horns growing from their forehead.

And lastly, there was the purple-skinned imp monster. Matching their skin color, these imps also had dark purple color flames on their tails. These imps were known as Imp Mages. They were long-ranged attackers. These purple imps were the strongest among the imp monsters.

"You all stay here. Do not leave the ship, no matter what happens. I will take care of these damn monsters." Saying that Aditya flew away leaving the girls behind.

As soon as Aditya left the wall of crimson flame, all the imps turned their attention to Aditya. Aditya suddenly found countless iron arrows and dark elemental attacks coming in his direction.

Just before any of the attacks could hit him, he just disappeared. The next second, Aditya appeared more than 1000 meters away from the desert ship.

'I can't start a fight so close to the desert ship. Otherwise, Julia and others will end up getting caught in the range of my attacks.' Aditya thought in his mind. Aditya also did not want to damage the desert ship.

"It has been a while since I last fought." Aditya realized that as he grew stronger, the number of fights that he had kept decreasing. When he was just a 2nd-order cultivator, almost every single day he had to fight someone. But after reaching Beginner 4th-order, till now he only had one fight and that was also against the core member of that organization.

'If this keeps up then I won't have any opponent to fight at all.' Aditya thought. He felt he was suffering from his own success.

'I mean it's not like a bad problem to have.' Shaking his head, Aditya decided to end this as soon as possible. Since he still wanted to eat Riya's cooked meal.

Aditya wasn't that excited about fighting these imps. After all, these imps weren't that intelligent. These imps had the same intelligence level as low-level goblins. These imps will attack by following their instinct. Even a 5-year-old child could make smarter decisions than these Peak 5th-order Imps.

Aditya suddenly flew up in the air. He flew more than 400 meters above the sky. He wasn't standing still, he was constantly dodging the attacks form the imp archers and the Imp mages.

Aditya stretched out his right palm. A crimson flame orb formed in his palm.

Scarlett Inferno!!!!

Aditya started pouring tons of his Mana into this Crimson flame orb. Before when he put Mana in his Crimson flame, the flame would grow in size and power. But now Aditya did not let it grow in size. Instead, as the power of the flame grew along with its temperature, he started compressing it.

The flame orb in his palm started shrinking while vibrating violently. As the size grew smaller, the vibration of the flame orb became more and more intense.

At some point, the flame orb became as small as a bullet. At that point, Aditya felt that he could not keep the flame orb in his control anymore. If he tried to shrink it anymore, then it was going to explode.

Knowing this he fired the flame bullet down like a bullet.

Boooooooooom!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
