Dragon Monarch System-Novel

After hearing from everyone, Aditya took strict measures to fight against such situations. It was necessary to take steps since, after this incident, it was 100% confirmed that many Voidfigures had managed to enter many of the Istarin Cities while pretending to be ordinary people.

Aditya did not want the citizens of the Empire to think that their Emperor was purposely trapping them in their cities. Hence, just a few hours after this incident, another announcement was made by the Emperor. The words of the Emperor must reach every City of the Istarin Empire.

Aditya used the All-Seeing Mirror. The All-Seeing Mirror was a 4-star artifact he obtained from the Echo Nexus Empire. Initially, the All-Seeing Mirror only had ten round-shaped crystal orbs. Still, Aditya made more round-shaped crystal orbs, allowing him to speak to the citizens of the Empire directly.

Each round-shaped crystal orb was placed in the City Squares. This isn't the first tthat the Emperor has directly addressed his people either. So when a 15-meter large transparent image of the Emperor appeared in the air, the people weren't surprised. Instead, everyone gathered in city squares to listen to what the Emperor had to say.

"Citizens of the Istarin Empire, I stand before you today with a heavy heart and a determined spirit."

"Millions of Homunculus have attacked Our Cities. We call them Voidfigures." The people in all cities gathered in the city squares to listen to the Emperor's speech.

"The situation becsevere when we learned that sVoidfigures have managed to sneak inside our Cities." Hearing this, the faces of the public changed. Everyone's expression becfearful.

"Our cities have been attacked by the Voidfigures, who disguised themselves as ordinary people to bring chaos and destruction. These attacks have threatened our safety and our way of life." Hearing all this, the Voidfigures, who had disguised themselves as ordinary people, knew they could not turn the public on the Emperor by making them believe that the Emperor was holding them hostage. In fact, no one had expected the Emperor to cand reveal this information publicly. This was a massive setback for the mastermind. Originally, the plan was to make the citizens of the Empire turn against their own emperor.

The widespread discontent among the population regarding the emperor's decision to enforce lockdowns in every city presented an opportunity for the mastermind to exploit this dissatisfaction, with the intention of turning the people against the emperor.

But Aditya clearly didn't let that happen. The mastermind underestimated the amount of respect and faith that the citizens of this empire had in their Emperor. Even if they were dissatisfied, the people hadn't forgotten just how much their lives had changed because of the Dragon Monarch. In a short span of 15 months, their lives drastically changed for the better.

Aditya paused to let his words sink in. The crowd murmured among themselves. The expression of their fear and concern was visible on everyone's faces. Facing this new enemy that they didn't know anything about, everyone was more or less concerned. Everyone, regardless of their social status, was very worried about their futures and their safety. Even the nobles who heard the Emperor's words were very concerned.

"To protect you, my people, I must take strict measures. From now on, no one can approach any public teleportation array or city entrance without facing our guards. This is a direct order. Anyone who tries will be attacked immediately. No one is an exception to this order, except for high-ranking military members." Aditya said in a very stern tone. The people understood that the Emperor only did this for their own good.

But there were still speople who were very dissatisfied hearing this. These people were the rich elites of society. Every one of them had multiple houses on various continents or in remote places. Their thoughts were that instead of being stuck in the city, where danger was hidden among the people, it was better for them just to leave the city and go somewhere remote or to sother continent for safety.

'Why do my family and I have to be stuck in this city when I can just shift to another remote place or to another continent?' Thought an old man was staring at the image of the Emperor while sitting inside his luxurious carriage.

'This is bullshit!' The man was pissed. He wasn't an ordinary man. He had the option of shifting to another place. The man felt that the Emperor was taking away his freedom.

'It looks like I will need to use sother ways to leave this city with my family.'

He wasn't the only man with such thoughts. There were thousands of others like him with the sthoughts.

The Emperor's voice grew more intense. "I do this not to trap you but to save you. These steps are necessary because we have confirmed that many Voidfigures have infiltrated our cities. They hide among us, pretending to be one of us, waiting to strike. We cannot allow this any longer."

Aditya took a deep breath as his expression becresolute. "These measures will help us identify and eliminate the threat. It is the only way to ensure our cities remain safe havens for all true citizens of the Empire. I ask for your understanding and cooperation during this difficult time. Together, we will overcthis threat. Together, we will stand strong."

He raised his hand in a gesture of solidarity. "Let my words reach every corner of the Istarin Empire. Spread the message. Let everyone know that this is for our survival, our future. We will not let the Voidfigures destroy what we have built. We will protect our home, no matter the cost."

Aditya's words deeply moved 99% of citizens. Everyone was touched by how much His Majesty was doing for them.

"I want to leave you all with a few words of Hope. I ask you all to place your faith in me. We all have been working really hard to tackle this situation. Hopefully, within a very short time, everything will return to normal."

"And lastly, I want to address my enemies." Hearing this, the mastermind and Goddess Luna raised their heads and looked at Aditya's image.

Aditya's expression becreally cold. His pupils turned crimson. It was as if Aditya was directly staring at the masterminds.

"Nothing is more perilous than a dragon guarding its lair. Even if the whole world were to turn against us, we are not afraid. Unlike certain people, the Istarin Empire has always openly accepted challenges. Regardless of our opponents' strength, the Istarin Empire has always cout as the winner."

"You have made a grave mistake by messing with the Dragon Monarch. Very soon, you will pay for everything."

"Soon, You will understand why the Istarin Empire is known as the Graveyard of Empires."

"You have started this war, but I will be the one to finish it." With that, Aditya ended his speech, and his image disappeared.

Aditya had no idea just how much he was respected and admired by his people. Even though, initially, his people were dissatisfied with his actions but once he cforward to explain everything, instead of protesting, they started praising his actions.

Scene Change_______

"That was a nice speech. Did someone write that speech for you?" Lilith asked with a smirk.

Aditya rolled his eyes upon hearing this. As someone who used to be a politician in his previous world, Aditya never used any written speech when addressing the crowd.

" I am just naturally good at this."

"Don't play with fire, woman," Aditya warned Lilith not to mess out. Aditya would have devoured her if he wasn't busy dealing with the Voidfigures.

Aditya would have done it with Lara if he hadn't been busy with the Voidfigures. Sadly, he won't devour Lilith until her turn comes.

"Hehe.....!!" Lilith giggled before she kissed his right cheek under Amelia's watch. Lilith playfully stuck her tongue out at Amelia, taunting her before leaving the laboratory.

Throughout the entire time, Amelia maintained a neutral expression, but deep inside, she was consumed by jealousy. Whenever Lilith was around Aditya in Amelia's presence, she would behave very affectionately and cling to Aditya. She would kiss his cheeks and boldly touch his private areas. She did all of this just to provoke envy and jealousy in her rival, Amelia.

Meanwhile, Julia and Riya ignored Lilith's actions. Both girls had better things to do than watch Lilith.

Just a few hours after making the announcement, similar incidents occurred in other cities as well. The story was the severy time. It was always a group of ordinary-looking people. They would approach the teleportation array and would try to find a chance to attack and operate the teleportation array so that more Voidfigures could enter the city. Fortunately, after what happened in the capital, everyone was alerted, so the guards were well prepared for such events.

When the next morning came, Aditya was finally done. It was tto test the power of the artifact.
