Chapter 43: Monarch's Past

Crimson Monarch sighed and started speaking, "In my peak days, Just as you said, my personality was very carefree, and I would kill anyone who dared to antagonise me. I was proud of my strength as even a few Monarch ranked warriors started to avoid fighting me.

That time, even though my strength was nearing the Monarch realm but it was actually not in the monarch realm. I had made many enemies throughout my life. Sometime later, the son of one of my enemies, who I killed a few years back, came to avenge him.

He was only a King ranked mage and was no problem to me, so I also killed him and a few others who were with him in a fit of rage.

This is where everything started. One of the people I killed was actually a prince of the Black dragon empire. After the Black dragon empire came to know this fact, they got angry and sent many people to hunt me down, but all were killed by me.

The then Emperor of the black dragon empire was forced to appear. His strength was slightly less than mine, but with the help of a treasure, he fought me. We fought For three days and three nights which resulted in the black dragon emperor and me being severely injured. Thus we decided to stop fighting in fear of someone else taking advantage of it attacking us.

After that, there was a peaceful time for me when I roamed around the world with my friends, one among them was your ancestor. But when we returned after our journey, we found that the places where our families lived were destroyed, and many were killed by the black dragon empire.

We were angry and wanted to demolish the black dragon empire, but that would result in many innocent and possibly our deaths. At That time, my best friend, Hellfire, who was your ancestor, suggested that I should establish my own empire and settle down to prevent more innocent people from getting killed.

After deciding it, I overthrew the current rulers of the kingdom and established the Crimson empire. The name was also suggested by hellfire. Just in a few years, My empire was able to stand against the Black dragon empire, thanks to hellfire and others who supported me and the black dragon empire was forced to stop its harassment. For a few years, there was no conflict between our empires.

But we didn't expect the black dragon empire to be this stubborn. They started killing the people close to me one by one in secret. By the time the news reached me, many of my friends and their families had been exterminated.

This time even hellfire, who previously stopped us from killing our way into the black dragon empire, was angry. We, along with some of my trusted subordinates, launched the attack and killed many members of the authority.

But somehow, the Black dragon Emperor already knew of our intentions and invited a Mid-Monarch level Mage to support him. I could fight Initial level Monarch mages, but against a mid-monarch level mage, there was little I could do. I could only hold him off while hellfire and others fought with the black dragon emperor and his subordinates.

We were in the enemy territory; therefore, we started losing members, forcing me to order the retreat. Just as others had retreated and only Hellfire, my prime minister, who was a relative of mine and I, were left and going to withdraw. That bastard Prime minister betrayed us and pierced hellfire's heart who, was unguarded against him.

I was furious at that time, and I attacked to kill that bastard, but The monarch and black dragon emperor teamed up with him and severely injured me. I had to use a forbidden art to flee, but in return, it worsened my injuries.

I didn't know where I was going and coincidentally entered this Fire Mountain range. I recuperated here for a few months, but due to the severe injuries to my mana core, my strength plummeted considerably and could only be comparable to a peak King realm mage.

I realised that in that condition, I could not do anything to the black dragon empire or that bastard who, even though he was my relative, betrayed me because before we attacked, he had broken through to the Emperor mage realm.

Although I had realised this fact but my anger and sadness of losing a brother like friend got better of me, and I went to confront him. A few days after, the link to my soul was cut off, and I knew that I was killed. I didn't regret my decision, and the only regret was that I didn't know if I was able to kill him or not."

Speaking till here, he stopped talking and closed his eyes. Everyone looked at him with pity. Even Margaret, who didn't seem to like men in general, was gritting her teeth. After staying silent for a while, he suddenly smiled and said.

"Fortunately, I left my legacy before going here and along with my will. I forged five rings which will help me find suitable successors, who hopefully tell me the result of my final battle to me and threw them toward the neighbouring empires and kingdoms."

He sighed again and continued, "I didn't expect it to take so many years, and this strand of will was about to run out of its energy. But maybe destiny didn't want me to die like this, and just today, the final ring found its successor."

He then looked at Schwartz and asked, "If you still think that I killed my best friend and your other ancestors, you are free to loathe me or do whatever you wish. As for killing my family, I'm sure nobody related to would-be alive as that bastard won't let any future threat live."

"..."

Schwartz looked at him with a serious face. After hearing this side of the story, The foundation of his hatred was shaken. He knew that his words didn't have a single lie in them. As for the reason, it was simple. He didn't have anything due to which he would lie, and most importantly, he knew how arrogant and the prideful person he was and such people disdain lying.
