But then, a voice sent chills down her spine.
"I have finally found you." A creepy voice came from her right. This made the group stop.
Twenty meters to her right, there was a man in a black cloak.
Instantly, ten more of these mysterious figures surrounded them and were isolated from the crowd.
Who would have thought that instead of waiting for their target somewhere within the route, waiting for them at the entrance of the route would work much better?
Atlas and other members disguised themselves and spread everywhere.
But that wouldn’t have worked if Atlas had not overheard the conversation that Athena and Alfred were having.
"My target was only Athena, but it seems I get to earn some extra points by capturing these rats from the celestial dragon empire." Calling them rats felt like a huge insult to Alfred, Bree and Mateo.
Bree almost attacked Atlas ,but Mateo held her hand.
"Don’t stop me." But Mateo shook his head. He can tell that even if he and Bree attack this man together, they still wouldn’t be able to defeat him.
The only one in their group who had a chance of fighting him was Athena.
She was the goddess of wisdom. She had shown her strength on multiple occasions.
"Atlas, you deal with her. I will take these two rats. As for the rest of you, take this old man down." Alex Jones was holding a grudge and was directing his anger towards them. After a humiliating defeat at the end of the dragon monarch, while trying to capture Laura, and having to shamefully run away just to save their lives, Alex Jones and Atlas wanted revenge more than anything else.
Their failure had made their leader doubt them. Due to their failure, Zoros was sent here to take charge of everything. With Zoros ,even the adopted son of the leader was also sent.
To Atlas and Alex Jones, this was extremely humiliating. As a top powerhouse, they had huge pride and ego.
There was no way that they would accept this humiliation. They couldn’t do anything against the members of the organisation or against the leader, nor did the thought of doing anything against their organisation ever cross their minds.
The only way that they could save face and wash away this shame would be by capturing Athena and the three wanted men from the celestial dragon Empire.
Atlas was the only core member, and Alex Jones was the only inner member of the organisation. The remaining eight of them were made up of some outer members and some scout-level members whom they had recruited from the local area to increase their forces and increase their chances of successfully completing their mission.
They had no doubt about their strength, but sometimes it was better to have more quantity than quality.
At that moment, fireflies started coming out of Athena’s back. At that same time, one particular firefly started flying away from her and headed in the direction of Laura. No one tried to stop or destroy this firefly, as everyone’s attention was on what was happening on the scene.
Amaterasu’s Radiant Mandate!
Suddenly, a green-blue colour wave of light spread from Athena’s body in all directions. The light spread in a radius of 10 meters. The green-blue wave passed through Atlas and others, but nothing happened to them.
But the moment the light touched the bodies of Aflred, Bree, and Mateo, their bodies glowed in a gentle green-blue colour. The glow only lasted for a second before it completely disappeared. But the trio instantly felt the changes in their bodies.
Alfred and others felt their agility by almost [150+] points, and their Mana increased by a little 5% boost in their Mana.
"Hold them until I am done with this guy." Athena was the most worried about Alfred. Due to his cultivation being suppressed for a long time and being held in captivity, without any high-quality pills or potions, he still had not fully recovered his strength.

At the same time,
Aditya inserted his fingers into the small vertical cut over his heart. "Do you fear Death Moros?" The Monarch asked in an ice-cold tone while forcefully making that cut big enough to put his entire palm inside.
His fingers slowly tore the cut, widening it from 3 inches to 10 inches.
Moros looked horrified.
Everything was going well, but suddenly everything changed. Other than feeling weak, Aditya used some kind of strange power that was not recorded in their information. It seems to be some kind of skill that suddenly increased the weight of his body.
After widening the cut with his bare hands, Aditya looked at Moros’s eyes and put his palm inside.
His palm grabbed his heart, which was slowing down.
"No one hurts my Dragonian." Without any shred of mercy, he ripped out Moros’s heart before using his full strength to hit Moros on the face with his own heart.
The gore scene left everyone shocked.
The Monarch himself was covered in Moros’s blood.
The scene where he forcefully tore his chest and ripped out his heart even after knowing that Moros was going to die from the stab in the heart was just tooo cruel.
Even Laura was shaken and had to look away when he ripped his heart out.
All cultivators who watched the scene felt terrified. This was simply too cruel for them. Even the members of the organisation, including Kaoru, felt deeply shaken. Knowing that this man was their opponent and that he was going to target them next made them feel even more terrified.
Even Kaoru, who was a Peak Sixth Order cultivator, felt afraid of facing Aditya.
And from what she knew, the Monarch hadn’t even gone full out yet. While the Peak 4th-order Dragon Monarch was a tough opponent but defeatable, this Beginner 5th-order Aditya was in a different league.
Meanwhile, the Dragonians did not fear the Dragon Monarch. Instead, they felt their chest swell in pride because of what their dragon monarch did. His actions were proof that the dragon monarch deeply cared about his people and was kind.
Even the other few Dragons captured with the Dragonians felt moved.
’This is the Might of the Dragon Monarch.’ Before, there were some doubts about the Dragon Monarch. All they heard was that Every Dragon, regardless of their rank and power, felt a deep surge to submit and serve their Dragon Monarch upon meeting him.
Now they felt the same way. Their hearts were beating wildly. It was like their bodies were excited at the presence of the Dragon Monarch. Their bodies wanted nothing more than to kneel and greet their Monarch.
Aditya looked at the Organization members and then at the large crowd around them.
"Whoever dares to harm what’s mind will suffer the same fate. I don’t care who you are or your background. I will kill every single last of them."
"Those who harm my People will receive a very painful death."
"The world should know, the death given by the Dragon Monarch is....." He looked at Kaoru and the remaining members. At that moment, the sky completely darkened. Violent Crimson Lightning bolts started running from the sky.
"It’s very barbaric." It was at that moment that Kaoru and others deeply regretted having even thought of harming the Dragon Monarch or his kin. This man was a demon in the form of a Dragon.
He showed no shred of mercy towards Moros.
Swoosh!!!
Aditya disappeared from his position.
Kaoru suddenly felt a chill run down her spine. At this moment, she wanted nothing more than to escape. She wanted to run away from this demon who promised to give them all barbaric deaths.
And she did not want to stay long enough to find out.
But it was already too late.
Aditya had gone all out.
Dragon Monarch Domain!!!
Booooom....!!!!
A violent Aura was unleashed. The Aura from Aditya was sooo strong that all members of the Organisation were frozen in one place. It was extremely suffocating.
Even a Peak 6th-order cultivator like Kaoru felt like she could barely breathe under this suffocating pressure. Even the surrounding crowd felt the intense pressure. Some weaker ones almost fell to their knees, while the rest quickly moved further back.
Swooosh!!!!
One by one, the heads of the servants and others, except for Kaoru, started falling down. But before their headless bodies could even fall to the ground, a hundred other cuts appeared all over their bodies.
In the end, what fell on the ground was countless small pieces of meat and bones.
Kaoru quickly took out a teleportation crystal and activated it. As the crystal glowed and she was about to escape, a cut appeared on her right palm holding the crystal. Under her horrified gaze, her left arm fell to the ground.
Aditya was nowhere done. A dark chain wrapped around her neck and pulled her from behind.
The next second, the violent Aura entirely disappeared.
"What just happened?" Everyone, including the Draognian, looked confused. They couldn’t see the Dragon Monarch or Laura anymore.
But could sense that their Monarch was rapidly heading in the other direction.
"Let’s follow our Monarch!!"
Meanwhile, the crowd was left with a cruel impression of their first meeting with the Dragon Monarch. This man was the definition of cruel.
