BXBX NOVEL 126 Chapter 126
--------------------------
Knock! Knock!
"Watson, you can come in." The butler who now was working as the unofficial butler of the Istarin Kingdom walked inside.
"Young master, what are you doing?" Watson was left confused seeing Aditya using red blood to paint the 9 circles that he had drawn in the circular room.
"Oh, this is the blood of a Holy Unicorn. Holy unicorn has one of the purest forms of blood. This blood belongs to a Peak 4th-order holy unicorn. To activate the teleportation arrays, I will need to paint the 9 circles of the teleportation arrays with unicorn blood."
"I see." Watson stood at the door. He did not step inside the room to give space to Aditya.
"You came at the perfect time. I was about to activate the teleportation array. Why don\'t you try using the teleportation array and teleport to Apogale city? I am sure Walter would be very happy to see you."
Hearing the name of his brother being mentioned, Watson suddenly felt very nostalgic. He and his brother have spent their childhood together. In their difficult times, his brother has been there to support each other. From training to sleeping to even bathing, both brothers have done it together.
"It has been a few years since I last saw my brother." As Watson and Julia have to travel all the way to the Nyland Kingdom to use the teleportation array, he simply did not feel that traveling for an entire week just to see his brother will be worth it. Also if he left, who is going to serve the young master? Unless Aditya gave him a few weeks of holiday, he couldn\'t really go to see his brother.
"If you want, you can take a few days off. I don\'t mind. Now that I have returned, you can leave everything in my hands. These past two months have been really tough for you. I won\'t mind if you take a few days or maybe even a week\'s break. You deserve it." Watson nodded his head with a grateful smile. During the war, Aditya had left Watson to take care of the administration work; meaning that Watson had to spend countless hours sitting and writing and signing documents.
"You know, I can also ask Walter to set a blind date for you. I think it\'s about time you also find someone and get married." Hearing Aditya\'s words, Watson laughed out loud.
"Hahaha! Young Master, I am already this old I don\'t think anyone would be willing to marry me. Please don\'t forget that this old man is already a century old. I simply have run out of time to get married. My only wish is to serve young Master and see the Istarin Kingdom touch the greatest height of the sky."
Aditya looked at Watson\'s appearance. "I don\'t think anything is wrong with your appearance. As you have restarted cultivating and after breaking through 3rd-order your appearance has changed. You have de-aged. You look like some 40 years old man." When a cultivator breaks through higher-order, their life spans also increase. Also, dragons naturally have more lifespans than humans. It was normal for a dragon to live a few thousands year. With Watson\'s cultivation, his life span would be around 15,000; maybe even more.
Watson was a handsome man. After reaching 3rd-order and after becoming a dragon, he has become even more handsome. His physical appearance has changed a lot. If Watson starts looking for a wife, then it wouldn\'t be that hard for him. All he has to do is give it a try.
"Don\'t use your age as an excuse."
"Your majesty, can we please not talk about this topic?" Watson even though he was already this old, had practically no experience with women besides his mother who also passed away when Watson was only 5 years old.
"Look Watson, Walter also has settled down with a family of his own. I don\'t see what is holding you back from finding a partner and getting married." After spending so much time with his butler, Aditya began seeing Watson as his real family. He respected Watson like his real grandfather. Aditya does not want Watson to spend his life alone.
"Your Majesty, when Lady Julia was born I was assigned to serve Lady Julia. Lady Julia and the Dragon King, are and will be the only two persons whom I have sworn to serve with my heart and life. If I get married, my marriage life might get in the way of my professional life." Watson\'s professional life was his identity.
"Don\'t tell me you swing that way?"
"Of course not. I am perfectly a healthy young man."
"Whatever you say." After talking to Watson, Aditya realized that it was useless to discuss this matter with his butler.
\'I will have to discuss this matter with Walter. I will ask him to find a blind date for Watson.\'
While talking with Watson Aditya finished covering the rune circles with unicorn blood. Aditya then stood at the center of the 9 circles. Looking at the nine circles, a satisfied appeared on his face. This was his first time drawing a teleportation rune, yet Aditya managed to make it without making any mistakes. During the whole process, Aditya was slightly nervous. Fortunately, nothing went wrong during the process.
Aditya began condensing his mana in his both fists. After condensing a certain amount of mana in his fists, Aditya touched the floor with his both palms and released all of the mana towards the rune circles.
Boooom!
For a moment Watson felt like he had gone blind. The only thing that he saw was an intensely bright light. Fortunately, after a few seconds, everything returned to dimmed down. When he looked at the 9 circles, Watson was shocked to find 9 circles that were made up of complex rune characters in the air.
Aditya was standing in the middle of the rune circles. The 9 circles were glowing in 9 different colors. The color of each circle kept on changing with each passing second. The whole scene was quite spectacular to watch.
After around 1 minute, the lights coming from the 9 circles began dimming down before completely disappearing.
"Majesty, what happened?" There was a trace of fear in Watson\'s tone.
"No to panic Watson, the teleportation array has been activated." Aditya then walked up to Watson.
"Go and stand in the middle of the circle. I will send you to Apogale city." Before Leaving Apogale city, Aditya has left a bit of his mana in the Apogale city teleportation rune. By using his mana to activate the teleportation array, he had basically connected with this TA to the TA of Apogale city. The TA in Apogale city was already connected to all other teleportation arrays in and outside the continent. Meaning that this teleportation array can be used to teleport to any continent, as long as one has the exact latitude and longitude of the location.
[TA: - Teleportation array. It\'s very annoying to type TA words every time.]
Watson nervously nodded his head. He for some reason felt that he was being used as a guinea pig. Aditya was using him to test if the teleportation array works or not.
"Nothing will happen. Your step won\'t damage the runes on the floor." Watson stood at the center of the teleportation array and then looked at Aditya.
"Alright, I will send you to Apogale city. Once you go there, ask Julia to make pills that can heal the mana crippled hearts. She will understand what she needs to do." Watson nodded his head.
"Now go." Aditya used his mana to activate the teleportation array. Once again the whole array started shining bright multi colors. The colors were so bright that neither Aditya nor Watson could keep their eyes open.
When the bright light dimmed down, Watson had been teleported. After Watson left, Aditya almost fell down from the overuse of his mana. Normally a teleportation array would need mana stones to function. But Aditya instead had used his huge mana reserve to teleport Watson. He did not think single teleportation would nearly consume almost all of his mana.
"It looks like I will need mana stones." Aditya looked at the TA one last time before leaving the room. Now that Watson has also left, for the first time since arriving in this world, Aditya is truly left alone. Julia and Watson had become a part of his life. Without them, he felt he was missing something from his life.
"Watson should return within a few days at most." Aditya now was planning on meeting a certain someone who was going to help him with all the weapons and armor that he collected while fighting goblins. Even Aditya is not sure how many weapons and armor he has managed to collect. The number was simply too big.
