109 Chapter 109

“I don’t care.” The goddess cried in his embrace.
Aditya slowly relaxed his body. When he was in the battlefield he had to be in high alert of his surroundings as he did not wanted to get back stabbed by a goblin. Now that his woman was here, the person that he trusted the most was here, he finally let his guard down.
“Princess, I don’t think I can hold on for much longer. I will leave the rest to you.” The final thing that Aditya saw before falling asleep was the gentle looking Sophie nodding her head at him. Aditya is not sure if there was any tear in her eyes or not.
Julia smiled looking at the peaceful sleeping face of the Dragon King who now had become the Dragon Monarch. She was concerned about his white pale face.
Meanwhile, Sophie walked up to her husband. Just like her daughter, the mother also did not shy away from giving her husband a big hug. Adam deserved a warm hug after all the hardship he went through today. Adam welcomed the hug. In front of his wife, nothing else mattered to him.
“Are you hurt anywhere?” The mother of the goddess asked in a choked tone. She was barely restraining her tears.
When this huge mana portal appeared near their home, Sophie seems to have lost her sleep. She did not knew how her husband will protect everything. Her husband was carrying the burden of millions of people. At first Sophie was hell vent on joining Adam in this fight. If Adam was going to die here, she too would have fought till the end. But then Adam’s words changed her mind.
Even if Adam and everyone died in this battle, he made sure that Sophie would have there to look after this children. When this battle had began the chances of Adam returning was less than 50%. All this time Sophie held her tears as she did not wanted to worry as daughter and her son.
But now all of those locked up emotions was on the verge of breaking out. Adam sighed as he understood what his dear wife was going through.
“Don’t worry. My condition is at least better than that boy. Thanks to this bastard, I will no longer have to spend weeks on cleaning this battlefield.” Aditya’s lightning attack practically had reduced all the dead bodies to ashes which were probably buried under the ground.
Hearing her husband’s words, Sophie smiled and said nothing. But she and Adam knew if not for Aditya, then they wouldn’t have been hugging each other right now.
The dark clouds that Aditya had summoned when using his final attack still remained covering the sky. Soon drops of rain started falling from the sky.
Patter! Patter!
Unlike before, this rain was much gentle. The rain seems to be washing the fatigue of all the soldiers and the adventurers. The soldiers and the adventurers used this chance to clean their bodies. While the women restrained themselves. Even if they wanted to clean themselves, they couldn’t do it in front of such large crowd of males.
From the top of the city walls, Adam hugged Sophie’s waist and watched the scene where all the soldiers and adventurers celebrated.
[Everyone, I won’t say much words since I am not good with speeches. But tonight all the drinks and foods will be on the Onard house. Drink as much as you can.]
That night, Apogale city did not sleep at all. All the soldiers drank alcohol to their heart content. While some soldiers and adventurers mourned the deaths of their fallen comrades.

In the Istarin Kingdom,
Alicia lied on the bed with a smile on her face. Today she had prepared herself to for the worst. Little she knew that she was going for a massive surprise and shock. Aditya’s performance was what that surprised and impressed her the most.
“Never thought that just within 2 and half months, I would see someone change this much.”
“Hehe! I wonder what King Ethan would think if he heard of this. Don’t those foolish kings realized that they cannot go against the dragon King?”

Onard Castle,
The family finally returned home after a long day. Fortunately before the battle had started, Sophie had put Zak in a long sleep. No one in the house wanted the little one to witness this kind of things at such early age.
“I will go and take a bath first.” Just like Aditya, Adam’s body was also covered in goblins blood.
“I will prepare dinner for us.” Sophie quickly went to the kitchen. Today she was beyond happy. The catastrophic event passed and fortunately her family still managed to survive this event. She head of the house wanted to prepare something extra delicious and special for this event.
“Mom, where is Walter?” Julia looked at Aditya who was deep in his sleep.
“I don’t think it will be best to call Walter right now. Why don’t you wash Aditya’s body by yourself?” Walter had joined the battle. The old butler refused to sit in the castle when his master fought against the goblins.
“This…..” Julia’s face instantly turned red hearing her mother’s words.
“What? If you can’t do it, then shall I call the maids to wash Aditya’s body?” Sophie asked with a smile on her face.
Her mother’s words seems to have touched her sensitive nerve. There was no way the goddess would allow a maid to wash her husband’s body. Only she and his future wives had that right. “There is no need to call any maids. I will clean his body by myself.” Julia declared in a cold tone before carrying Aditya walking back to his bedroom.
Watching her daughter leave, Sophie shook her head with a smile before going to the kitchen.

“Look at his sleeping face. Why do I have to clean his body?” The Goddess of alchemy complained while holding a wet towel.
“First let’ remove his upper wear.” Julia bit her lips as she put her hands to remove the T-shirt that tightly glued to his body, highlighting his abs and muscles. Right now she was feeling embarrassed and also a little bit of excited. Even though this shameless dragon had teased her in the past, he never showed his naked body to her.
Julia slowly pulled the T-shirt, revealing his abs and stomach which were covered in blood. Julia did not mind the blood on his body. It did not disgust her even a bit. Instead she was somewhat happy about being able to clean his body, of course the goddess wouldn’t admit it to anyone.
As Julia finished removing the T-shirt, she couldn’t help but stop for a moment noticing the small crimson scales covering his chest, neck, throat, collar bone and his shoulders. These scales acted as an armor and has protected Aditya many times.
“Come to think of it, I never have seen Aditya in his dragon form.” Julia murmured in a low tone as she used the wet towel to gently clean his chest.
The way she moved her hands, it was as if she was cleaning the most delicate thing in the whole world. She moved as slow as possible to not wake him from his deep sleeping state. She knew that her man needed a few days of rest after all the things that he did today.
While cleaning the goddess has to admit that her man’s body was very sexy. He had a lean muscular body with a perfect 6 abs. It felt really good to touch his abs but Julia never admit such thing to another soul.
Julia took her time to clean his body. After she was done with the upper part, she now had to clean the lower part.
The goddess’s face turned red as a tomato as she slowly pulled his pant down. Fortunately Aditya was deep in his sleep. Fortunately no one was watching her. Otherwise she would have been too embarrassed to continue.
Even though no one was watching her, the goddess’s heart beat very fast. She felt as if she was committing some kind of crime. She was feeling a mix of nervousness and excited.

After a long time, Julia was finally done with cleaning Aditya’s body. As his clothes were soaked in blood of those filthy goblins she had to threw away those clothes and also change the bed sheet which also was stained with blood.
Knowing that she cannot leave him naked, she took out a set of pajamas and put them on his body. All this took almost an hour. After she was done, she finally sighed in relief. After taking one last look after Aditya, she left the room.

“Where is Zak?” Julia returned to the living room after taking a bath to clean her body as well.
“He is sleeping. He won’t wake up until tomorrow morning. What about Aditya?” Sophie asked as she put the bowl of soup on the table.
“I don’t think he is going to wake up anytime soon. I guess he will be sleeping till tomorrow or maybe day after tomorrow.” Ever since the starting of this battle, Aditya had consumed his mana many times. Even though his body was not injured, his mental health was very exhausted. Given his sudden break through and also his blood line evolving, Aditya’s body will take some time to adjust.
“It looks we the three of us are going to have dinner together.”
“Yeah.”
The family started having their dinner. Adam ate more than usual. Recovering mana takes a lot of energy. He was super hungry after a whole day of fight. It was normal for a cultivator to eat more food than an ordinary people.
“All the nobles are using the teleportation array to head back to their respective territories.”
“What about Grandpa Tobias and Uncle Eddie?” Julia asked.
“Both of them are fine. They are celebrating with the soldiers. I guess for the next few days, they will be taking it easy.” Adam did not blame them. After that battle, everyone deserved a few days of rest. In fact he was also planning on taking a few days off.
“I hope you haven’t forgotten about our daughter’s birthday.” Sophie reminded Adam. Only 7 more days are left.
“Don’t worry about it. I already have finished inviting all the nobles and all our allies from neighboring kingdoms. I am also planning on hiring 10,000 2nd and 3rd-order mercenaries to increase security of the city. So Everything should be fine.”
Sophie nodded with a relieved smile. “But we still have one problem.”
“That is…..”
“Our Castle is still broken.”
“____”
After a moment of silence, Adam sighed. “Don’t worry, tomorrow I will ask the construction team to resume their work.”

2 days later,
The Dragon Monarch, finally decided to open his eyes. After opening his eyes, he looked around to find himself in his bedroom. Aditya relaxed his body and his muscles. He stared at the ceiling for a while before opening the system to learn about all the changes that took place.
