DRAGON MONARCH SYSTEM - Season 2 Episode 93

“I see.” Suddenly the smile on the man’s face changed. Before the mutant fire ant queen could react, she found a sword stabbing her heart.

Scarlet widened her eyes in disbelief and in utter shock. She never thought Jay would betray her. Cough!!!!

Scarlet coughed out. She looked at Jay in a mix of regret and sadness. Why did the very person whom Scarlet trusted had betrayed her?

“Why?”

Red blood came out of her chest and fell to her thighs and then to the ground. Each second Scarlet was losing her health. She was only alive this long because as a Mid-5th-order cultivator her health stat was very high. At the moment of her death, she wanted to know why she was betrayed by the very person whom she trusted. She wanted to know why she was betrayed by the organization.

Jay smiled and then gently stroked Scarlet’s right cheek. Seeing him look at her like this only added more pain and regret to her heart.

“The organization always had plans of betraying you. You were nothing but a cover for us. Because of you, we were able to complete the first phase of the plan.”

“To be honest, Scarlet I always hated the fact that you were a Mutant fire ant. I know that you have feelings for me. And I would have loved you back but the thought of loving a mutant fire ant who has millions of children doesn’t really go suit my taste.” The more Scarlet listened the more tears fell from her eyes. Each of Jay’s words was stabbing her heart.

This man once had held her in his arms and had said that he loved her regardless of her race. Scarlet still remembers the day when Jay had said those words to her. These words had made her heart warm. That day was one of the happiest days of her entire life.

“We never thought that the husband of the goddess of alchemy would come here. We were not expecting him to have this frightening power. To think he managed to destroy over ten million of your children with just a single attack is really frightening.” Aditya’s appearance forced the organization to change its entire plan.

“I never did anything to betray the organization. I have always completed all the orders that I was given. So why?”

Jay once again smiled while gently patting her head. “The only reason why we approached you is because of your race. You and your children were always meant to be cannon fodders for The League of the Black Tomb.”

“Let’s just say even if you had won the war against the Ethereal Empire, after a short period, you would have run out of food once again. At that time you would have no choice but to attack other Empires to secure food. The organization already had invested billions of gold coins in you and your children. Do you even realize just how absurd this amount this? This cannot go on any longer. Now that you and your children have done their part, you have no use to us.”

Scarlet showed a bitter smile. From the beginning, she was the puppet.

“Another reason why I personally came to kill you is that you know too much about The League of the Black Tomb. I am sure you would have tried to leak this information to the Ethereal Empire in anger for being betrayed by The League of the Black Tomb.”

“I see.” If Scarlet had the strength, she would have killed Jay with her. If she is going to die, then she might as well take Jay with her.

Ignoring Scarlet’s smile which was filled with bitterness and sadness, Jay continued. “The death of old man Ashley was a big wave of shock to us. I never imagined the old man would be killed by someone who isn’t even a 5th-order cultivator. He was just like a mentor to me. He had thought me how to wield a spear. The fact that I couldn’t save my master makes my blood boil in anger.” Jay tightly clenched his fists in anger. If the organization had not stopped him, Jay would have gone on to kill Aditya.

After the battle with Ashley, Aditya was at his weakest. Jay could have easily killed them at that time. But The League of the Black Tomb had different plans. Jay had no choice but to hold himself back. If he does not obey their leader’s order, just thinking of the hellish torture that is going to befall him made him shudder in fear.

“It’s sad that my teacher never got to fulfill his wish. His wish was left unfilled. As his student, I will make sure to walk down my teacher’s path and complete what he and the organization have started.” Jay then turned his focus on Scarlet whose face now had become pale. Scarlet was breathing heavily. In a few more seconds she would die.

Jay leaned forward and bought his face closer to Scarlet. The former mutant fire ant queen weakly looked at the man whom she had once learned to love. The sadness in Scarlet’s eyes cannot be described in words.

“Don’t worry, Honey. I will make sure to remember your name as well. This is the least I can do to honor the person who had become our cannon fodder. Scarlet, before you close your eyes forever, I want you to answer my question.”

Jay looked behind the golden throne. The treasure that lay behind the golden throne was gone. Before all the treasures that the mutant fire ants had always kept behind the throne but now everything was gone.

“Honey, where are all the treasures?” A third reason why Jay had taken this mission is that he wanted all the treasure of the mutant fire ant queen for himself. Especially the spirit stones that Scarlet had managed to find in the Heavenly Hemlock forest would help Jay to advance his cultivation.

Even though Jay’s tone was very soft and comforting, he couldn’t hide his greed for the treasures that Scarlet had collected.

Huff! Huff!

Scarlet weakly smiled at Jay in response. “Your time will also come. I will be waiting for you in hell. Karma is real and it will come chasing you.” Hearing these words and seeing the mocking smile on Scarlet’s face, the gentle smile on Jay’s replace was instantly replaced with an angry face. Without waiting for a second, Jay’s right fist punched Scarlet’s face.

Bang!

“You Bitch!”

Jay did not stop there. Not caring about the blood that was oozing out of Scarlet’s nose and her mouth, he continued to punch her another 6 times.

After punching Scarlet’s face for the 7th time, Jay finally calmed down. His knuckles were covered in Scarlet’s blood. Jay looked at Scarlet’s face which now had become unrecognizable. The bones of her face were broken and her face was currently covered in blood. In terms of beauty, Scarlet was one of the best-looking females on the whole continent of Westnia. But now, everything was gone. No one would think that Scarlet was a beautiful woman.

After Jay’s second punch, Scarlet already had taken her final breath while being punched by the very person whom she loved.

Scarlet wasn’t exactly an innocent person either. Hunger and her situation had forced her to commit many bad things in her entire life. It was because of her order that the lives of 1.5 million people were lost. Scarlet and her ant army had practically wiped out every single mutant animal and normal animal and every other edible thing from the Heavenly Hemlock forest.

Following The League of the Black Tomb order, the mutant fire ant queen had killed many innocent people over the last few years. Even when she was ordered to kill just a 4 years old child, Scarlet showed no hesitation or no mercy.

Sigh!

“At least, I am done with my mission.” Jay sighed as he looked at Scarlet’s dead body one last time before turning around to leave as he sensed someone coming to this place. Jay was strictly ordered to not expose himself in front of anyone.

“Before killing her, I should have at least slept with her once,” Jay murmured these words while he flew out of the Heavenly Hemlock forest.

Not even an entire minute had passed since Jay had left the queen’s lair when Aditya came to the mutant fire ant base. After walking for a while, Aditya found a few hundred thousand ant eggs. Seeing these eggs, without any hesitation Aditya burned them as he had grown tired of dealing with mutant fire ants and did not want to deal with any more mutant fire ants.

After walking for another 5 minutes, Aditya finally reached the center where he found a woman sitting on a golden throne.

“It’s nice to meet you, Aditya.”
