"Though, implementing this process is going to cost a ton of money," Spencer said after listening to Aditya's words. Aditya just waved his hand and said. "No need to worry. Gold coins are the last thing that this Empire lacks."
Even Aditya isn't sure just how many gold coins the Istarin Empire currently has. What he can confidently say is that, currently, the Istarin Empire is the wealthiest Empire on the six continents. Not even the Dune Sovereignty is as rich as the Istarin Empire. "Your Majesty, although I have proposed a plan, I am not 100% confident that the outcome will be beneficial to the Istarin Empire. The Money that we are going to spend on this whole thing has to be worth it; otherwise, we will only be wasting money." And if this plan were to fail, although Aditya would not blame him, it would still affect his reputation and the trust that everyone has in him. "You're worrying too much, Spencer," Aditya said while taking a sip of the tea. "There is close to zero percentage chance of failure. Even if the plan was to fail, it doesn't matter. Success is achieved through failures." Hearing this, Spencer nodded his head and said nothing. He trusted in Aditya's vision more than in his own vision. "Spencer, I don't want to delay this matter. Please arrange a meeting with our generals this evening. In the meeting, we will also discuss the potential locations of the Special Training Camps." "By tomorrow, I want to start the construction." Fortunately, in this world, through the use of magic and powerful cultivators, construction can be completed super fast. Maybe a few weeks would be enough to complete the construction of the 10 Training Camps. "Understood...!!!" Spencer wrote down what he needed to do in his diary so that he wouldn't forget anything. "Next, what else did you have on your mind?" Aditya asked. "Well, I want to suggest.......!!" -

Scene Change________
"Good morning, Sister Sasha!! Are you heading somewhere?" Lara asked after meeting Sasha in the living room. "Lara, tell Mom that I am returning to our Mansion to train a new skill that I have recently mastered. I will return before dinner." Saying that, Sasha disappeared. "She is always in a hurry...!!" Lara thought out loud. "My Lady, I think we should find Lady Lilith." Lara's personal maid, Rose, suggested from behind. Since Rose was a zombie, she wore a white mask in the Dragon Palace so as not to make other servants and maids gross. After all, being a zombie meant that she had rotten flesh and skin. This is kind of disturbing. For now, other than the members of the Royal Family, everyone else thinks that Rose is a human girl who for some reason wears a white mask and keep a distance from everyone. The Goddess of Alchemy is working on a special medicine to reverse her rotten flesh and skin. She would be no different than a human. "By the way, Lara hasn't seen sister Julia and sister either. Where are they?" Lara wondered. Her maid wondered if she would respond directly or just give a hint to her innocent Lady; after thinking for a while, Rose decided to be half-honest. "My Lady, maybe they are all sleeping together." "But Lara has checked Aditya's bedroom, but Lara hasn't found them anywhere." "Maybe they were sleeping in another bedroom. I suggest we check Lady Lilith's bedroom first."
"Alright, lead the way." While following Lady Lara, Rose couldn't help but sigh. Sigh...!!!
'My Lady, if you don't take any action, you will be left out at this rate.' Many times, Rose has given Lara a hint or nudge in that direction. Rose isn't sure if her Lady pretended not to understand anything or if she is just too innocent for this kind of stuff.
Rose felt that her Lady was lucky that the Emperor was waiting for her instead of sleeping with others behind her. This was Lara's turn. But if she kept delaying, then Rose feared that someone else might take their turn. Rose has completed all of her responsibilities. The only responsibility left is to ensure that Her Lady gets Pregnant with the Emperor's child and successfully gives birth to Aditya's child. She has been slowly pushing Lara in that direction, but her progress is just too slow. Even a snail moved faster than Lara. What was even more frustrating, other than drinking his blood every once in a few days, other than kissing each other, neither of them did anything else. Before, Aditya used to give his blood to Lara every single day to make sure that she had the energy to stay awake. But now, even if she drank his blood once every month, it was still fine. Drinking the Dragon Monarch's divine Dragon blood now helped to increase Lara's power.
Although Rose isn't aware of what kind of personal bed life Aditya had with his women, she can tell that Lilith is the most aggressive one among everyone. 'In fact, I wouldn't be surprised if Lady Lilith ends up being pregnant and giving birth to His Majesty's child before anyone.' Of course, Rose wouldn't say that to anyone. 'It looks like Lady Lilith is still a virgin. It must be because of His Majesty that she is still single.' Only Aditya can control this wild and untamable cat. Everyone else in the Dragon Palace didn't stand a chance against her.
Just like Rose suggested, they found Julia, Alicia, Riya, and Lilith sleeping in her room. "Lady Lara, please wake them up. If I remember correctly, Lady Lilith was supposed to go to School and take classes today," Rose said in a neutral tone. 'What's this strange yet familiar smell?' Lara was able to pick up the strange smell in the room. She recognized the smell but couldn't place it.
Lara was about to ask Rose about this smell when she noticed Lilith moving. Lilith opened her sleepy eyes. She rubbed her eyes for a few seconds before sitting up. As she sat up, the blanket covering her upper body fell down, revealing her boobs. Lara suddenly glanced at Lilith's boobs and then looked down at her own chest. 'Lara will still grow. Lara still has time.' She comforted herself. "What time is it?" Lilith asked in a sleepy tone. Her hair was messed up. She and the other girls were completely naked. However, other girls showed no sign of waking up. "It's already Afternoon," Rose replied in a neutral tone. Hearing this, Lilith's eyes widened. "Crap!!! I was supposed to head to school today." It was already too late. All of her classes were scheduled in the morning. These days, Lilith has been skipping school, citing being busy preparing for war. However, today, she has no excuse, as the war is completely over.
"Well, whatever. I am sure that the Principal will handle everything." Lilith said with a smile.
Lilith did not mind using her status. Given her position, no one would dare complain even if they were dissatisfied with her. After all, she was the future Wife of the Emperor. She was doing this job because she was too bored to stay inside the Dragon Palace all day long.
Lilith did not mind Rose and Lara seeing her naked. She stood up and yawned before grabbing her towel.
"By the way, Sister Sasha asked me to let you know that she's heading home to practice a new skill she recently learned." Lilith nodded before entering the washroom. "By the way, Rose, have you also noticed this strange smell in the room?" Lara asked Rose. Sigh...!!!
"My Lady, please come with me. We need to have a serious conversation." Rose took Lara's hand and led her to the bedroom.
"What do you want to talk about?" Lara asked sounding confused. "My lady, if you do not act now, then your spot will be stolen from you. I am sure you don't want that to happen."
"What spot?" Rose made Lara sit on the edge of the bed. "Let me explain." She decided to be direct about what she wanted to do. -

"Your Majesty, I have never expected things to turn out this way." "Even though I was being controlled, please allow me to apologize for everything that I have done. Please know that none of my actions were under my control. Everything I did was being controlled by that b**** Luna." The King of the Thera Kingdom bowed his head. "It's alright! There is no need for you or anyone here to apologize. Let's put the past behind us." Hearing this, everyone else felt relieved. They felt a huge weight had been lifted from their shoulders. But only if they knew what Aditya had in his mind. Although, Aditya did not show it but deep down, he was very upset. He was upset with the fact that these were the people that he trusted the most among his allies, yet they were the ones who betrayed him. Aditya hated betrayers more than anything else in this world. What these four have done to him has forever left a bad taste in his mouth.
Aditya will no longer trust them as he did before. He will now remain cautious and be prepared for them.
