????????????????!

Prime Minister Philip entered Lucas's bedroom by opening the door without first knocking or taking the emperor's permission. Philip found the Emperor standing on his balcony and staring at the giant mushroom cloud that had covered the sky.

Even though the capital of the Echo Nexus empire is around 850 kilometers away from its border eastern borders, even from such a long distance, the Emperor was able to see the explosion that destroyed an area of 25 kilometers.

Philip took a deep breath to relax his nerves and stop his body from shaking. The news of Arturo's death was so shocking to Philip that he couldn't stop shaking in fear. His whole body was covered in sweat. His face looked pale. His eyes were full of fear. It was as if he had met the God of Death.

"Your Majesty, Arturo Travis is dead." Even though Philip tried, he couldn't stop his voice from being shaky which showed how nervous and frightened he was.

Arturo Travis was the very best that the Echo Nexus Empire had to offer. With Arturo Travis, the Echo Nexus Empire had nothing to fear. No one was able to challenge their rule.

When Lucas decided to send Arturo to the eastern borders with one million troops under his command, Lucas trusted Arturo's abilities to the point where he didn't even monitor what was going on at the front line. In his heart, from the beginning, he had considered this battle to be their victory. With Arturo Travis, nothing can go wrong.

Lucas did not reply. He kept staring at the sky. Within just a single day, he had lost too many things in life. In the beginning, he lost his dear son and his future heir to the enemy Empire and watched him getting tortured by the enemy. The Oracle Alliance that he always has been proud of failed to meet his expectations and ended up losing to the enemy. The most powerful cultivator in his Empire was killed along with one million of his troops. This day couldn't get more worse and shitter than this.

Around 10 minutes passed in silence.

In those 10 minutes of silence, Philip waited for the Emperor to say anything but no words from his mouth were heard. Philip also tried his best to think or come up with any kind of solution. If the enemy Emperor did have the power to defeat their strongest, then it was the worst thing that could happen to them.

No matter how much he run his brain, no matter how much he tried to look for a solution, his brain simply couldn't find an answer to their problem.

At this point, the winner of this war already has been decided. If Lucas decides to stubbornly continue this war, then the Istarin Empire wouldn't stop till every single ally member of the Oracle Alliance including the Echo Nexus Empire has fallen into their hands. If they surrender, the enemy would demand some outrageous compensation. And they would have no choice but to agree. Without their strongest cultivator, disagreeing with the enemy Empire's demand would only mean their end.

'How to matter how I look at it, currently we are in a clear disadvantage situation. The intervention of The Celestial Terrain has limited our options. If we could use our other allies' powers and forces, then maybe we could have altered the outcome of this war.' In all honestly, Philip was expecting this War to go on for months or even for years. But the war ended within a single day.

Although neither party has surrendered yet, meaning that the War is still ongoing, it was clear that the Winner already has been decided and meaning that the War will end soon.

"Your Majesty, what should we do now?" Philip hesitantly asked. He feared that the Emperor would be extremely angry now given that he is very egotistical and short-tempered. The Emperor hates losing.

But contrary to what Philip was expecting, the Emperor replied calmly and tiredly.

Sigh!

After sighing, Lucas took out a bottle of red wine and a glass from his storage ring. He poured the wine into his glass and put the bottle on the floor. After emptying the glass, Lucas turned around and looked at Philip.

"What else can we do now? Continuing this war would mean the end of us. Let's hope that Our Enemy doesn't demand anything outrageous." Hearing this Philip bitterly nodded his head.

This marked the end of their Dominance over the entire Dying Isle continent and the rise of a new powerhouse.

"But first send my words to all of our allies."

Meanwhile,

"Your Majesty, are you alright?" Josh and Scott were the first ones to find Aditya. After the explosion, they couldn't find Aditya anywhere near them. This made them slightly worried. Fortunately, Aditya wasn't that far from their location, hence they were easily able to find him.

Josh and Scott found Aditya sitting on a rock and staring at the 25 kilometers-giant crater. The deepest point of the crater was 15 kilometers. The crater was so big that it could be the second biggest city of the Echo Dominion Empire and still would have space left in it.

Looking around, Josh and Scott only saw chaos and destruction. Parts of the land had been turned to frost. Some parts of the land had been completely turned to ashes. The rivers and lakes have been frozen in ice. Mountains and valleys have been destroyed. Apparently, this battle destroyed many habitats and greatly damaged the land.

"This land will take a long time to heal and recover. Perhaps this big crater and the other smaller craters that our attacks have created will turn into big lakes. Over time a new ecosystem will be built. Nature can balance everything in this world."

Josh and Scott looked at each other, not understanding why the Emperor was talking about the land.

"Today morning, when the War was declared, I thought this was going to be a long war for us. But this war turned out to be one of the shortest wars that we have fought."

"Your Majesty, you mean...."

"Yes, By tomorrow morning, the other party will surrender if he is smart enough to know what is good for him. Otherwise, I will personally kill them all."

Aditya was so tired that he barely had enough energy to keep his eyes open. This whole day he has been working. He went to all four battlefields. He fought against three 5th-order cultivators. One time he even nearly died and the second time, his opponent was unbelievably powerful. Too many things have happened in one day. The Dragon Monarch was exhausted.

"Scott, stay here with Josh and be on stand-by mode. Let our troops rest."

Scott nodded his head without showing any emotions.

Meanwhile, Josh wasn't pleased about staying with Scott. After all, this dark elf always managed to find a way to get under his skin.

"I will head back to the Dragon Palace." Saying that Aditya teleported away leaving the whole Dying Isle Continent in chaos. As the news of the Istarin Emperor defeating Arturo has already begun to spread in every direction. With the wind, the news spread all over the continent and even outside the continent.

After Aditya left, Josh and Scott were about to head back when both of them sensed two presences approaching them. Both Josh and Scott looked at each other and nodded their heads. Both took out their weapons and became cautious.

Sigh!

"We are finally out of the forest."

"Man that was exhausting."

"By the way, where are we....?" Steve and Billy widened their eyes in shock seeing the enemy troops.

"Enemy….."

"Let's kill them quickly and head back." Scott placed one arrow on the bowstring and was ready to shoot.

"Wait...Wait..." Both Steve and Billy raised their hands and surrendered themselves.

"What?" Josh asked in a displeased tone. Josh was already pissed about having to stay with Scott. He was looking to vent his anger on these two enemy troops.

"We surrender. Please don't kill us. Please take us with you." Billy and Steve pleaded with kneeling on the ground with their hands raised in the air.

"Surrendering time over. You two can die." Hearing this both Steve and Billy stiffened. Their eyes were full of fear.

"Wait." This time Scott stopped them.

"What?" Josh now looked even more displeased.

"Since they have surrendered, let's take them back to the camp. There is no need to kill them." Scott saw no value in killing these two low-ranking troops. It would be better to take them as war prisoners. Maybe in the future, these two can become even a part of the Istarin empire.

Unlike Josh, Scott thought more rationally.

"Do whatever you want." Josh did not argue with Scott. He coldly looked at Steve and Billy making them shiver in fear before leaving.

Sigh!

Scott sighed before lowering his bow. He knew that Josh has returned to the camp. Even if went somewhere else to cool his head, he won't be in any danger so Scott wasn't worried.

"Get up you two. Let's go." Steve and Billy timidly nodded their heads and followed Scott back to the camp.
