“Let’s stop with all this political nonsense and enjoy our dinner together. Julia, how have you been doing in the Istarin kingdom?”

Hearing the question, Aditya’s body turned stiff. He nervously glanced at Julia. Aditya is not sure how Adam would react when he hears that his daughter has been working as a maid for 2 years.

“I have been doing fine. Living in the Istarin Kingdom has taught me many things. I was able to meet new kinds of people and learn many new things. At first, I guess I had some trouble adapting living to a new place. But with time, the Istarin Kingdom became my second home.”

As a mother, Sophie can see just how much her daughter has matured as a person. When Julia left a few years ago, her father wanted to destroy the Istarin Kingdom to bring her daughter back. But Sophie convinced Adam that their daughter needs to face this alone. Julia has been living under her parent’s protection her whole life. She needed real-life experience to mature as a person.

At first, she hated and cursed her fate. Whenever she looked at the drunken face of the man who was her husband in name, she always got angry. She hated every moment, every second of working seeing his drunken face. It made her sick.

But one day the man she looked down upon changed. It was like the man had shed his skin and become a person. His personality, his behavior, his way of thinking, everything about him changed. Though his face remained the same, his personality had completely changed.

“Here eat this fish. I can’t finish it.” Under the stunned gaze of Sophie and Adam, their daughter gave Aditya the fired fish. Aditya accepted the fish and continued eating. The way she just causally gave the fired fish to Aditya looked very natural.

“Aditya, do you have any plans of returning to your family one day?” Everyone at the table stopped eating and stared at Aditya. This question was a serious and sensitive question. Aditya has never shown any look of pain or anger for being kicked out of the royal family. If he had not been kicked out, then he would have become the King of the strongest Kingdom in the whole world.

In the past, Julia and Watson also have thought of asking the same question to the man who achieved so much in 2 months. They wanted to know how he felt being kicked out of his royal family.

Aditya put the chopsticks on the table and looked at Sophie. The expression on his face was cold and there was a trace of sadness in his eyes. “No. I have no plans of returning to the royal family. I was abandoned and thrown away so far away from home.”

“Besides, I don’t think my parents would be interested in raising a child that couldn’t activate dragon bloodline.”

“That’s not true. You have awakened your Bloodline. Not just any bloodline, Heavenly dragon bloodline. In fact, it’s the other way around. It’s your parents who are not worthy of calling you their child.”

“Heavenly dragon bloodline…” Adam and Sophie stared at each other in a deep state of shock. How many dragons in this whole world had a heavenly dragon bloodline? The answer is no one. Not even the dragon king had a heavenly bloodline.

Meanwhile, the alchemy goddess, the future queen of the Dragon King was fuming in anger. Yes, she hated the Aditya that drank alcohol all day long. But she also felt sad, angry, and pity for Aditya who was thrown from the top of the mountain to a wasteland. “If I ever see your parents, I will slap them to death.”

The Dragon King smiled as his heart felt warm seeing the goddess getting angry for him. This showed just how much the alchemy goddess has come to care about him. “Calm down.” Aditya patted her right shoulder.

“Aditya I apologize for asking you such questions.” Sophie realized that she shouldn’t have asked this kind of question at the dining table.

“Aunty, there is no need to apologize. I simply don’t care.” Julia looked at Aditya and then continued eating. She now had lost the appetite to continue eating.

“By the way, Uncle I have a request.”

Adam put the rice bowl down. “What is it, kid?”

“Actually I am a runemaster. I was hoping if I can borrow some books advanced rune books.”

Sophie and Adam were once again surprised. “Oh, you know rune spells?”

“Actually, Aditya is a 2-star runemaster. During the war with the Zulux Dynasty, his rune spells played a big role.” The future queen looked very proud when she said those words.

“I didn’t know you were so talented.” Runes were the same as solving mathematics. Runemasters were very difficult to produce. Even the house of Onard only had only one 3-star runemaster and a few 2-star runemasters.

“I am not that talented. I have learned a bit under King Ahmed.” Aditya lied since the previous king, his adopted father didn’t know a thing about runes. But it was the only way he could answer how he learned about runes when he always was busy drinking.

“Kid, I have a 3-star runemaster working for me. If you want I can order him to teach you. If you wish to read books on runes, you can just head to the library.” Aditya noticed the hostility in Adam’s eyes has decreased significantly. It seems the man was beginning to accept him as his son-in-law.

“Thank you, Uncle.”

“You can just call us father and mother.”

“Ptttt!…..Cough…Cough!!!”

“Alright, you can continue to call us uncle and aunt.” Seeing him looking so nervous, Sophie did not pursue this matter further.

“Now that our daughter has returned, it won’t be long before the news spread throughout the kingdom. Should we take this chance to announce our daughter’s engagement to Aditya?”

Aditya was expecting Julia to protest but instead, she lowered her head and continued eating. He can see that her ears were red.

“Isn’t it too fast?” Everyone would expect the future husband of the Alchemy Goddess and the most beautiful woman on the continent to be a person with high status and social standing.

“Kid, what are you talking about? Are you playing with my daughter?” Aditya felt the killing intent in his eyes increasing.

“Calm down dear. Aditya, once the news of our daughter returning home spreads, many nobles, and kings will come with marriage proposals for their sons. Even when she left home a few years ago, every day many big nobles came to ask for Julia’s hand in marriage.”

“Do you understand what that means?” Aditya nodded in response. When the news of Aditya being kicked out of the royal family spread, all the people in the continent danced in happiness. Without the royal family backing him up, the contract had no meaning to them. They can have some chances of marrying one of the goddesses. This is what was happening with Julia.

“By announcing her engagement, even though there is a chance that the Onard family might end up offending some people, at least no one will come to ask for our daughter’s hand.”

“Of course I understand, that by letting your name be known, some jealous people will try to take revenge on you by attacking your Kingdom. So for now, we will use a different identity. You will be Aditya, a 2-star runemaster whom the princess of the Onard family has liked and picked as her future husband.”

Aditya lacked nothing. He had a heavenly dragon bloodline which meant that as long as he was given time he would reach the 7th order in the far future. Besides having a heavenly dragon bloodline, the way he was developing his kingdom, it won’t be long before the Istarin Kingdom becomes of the biggest and strongest Kingdom on the whole continent.

Others might think that Aditya wasn’t worthy, but in Sophie and Adam’s eyes, he was the worthiest man in the world. Most important of all, their daughter also loved her fiance which was the biggest reason why Sophie and Adam even though he didn’t want to, had accepted him.

“That’s perfect. In half month, Julia’s birthday is also coming. I think it would be the perfect time to introduce Aditya as her fiance.” Adam nodded. Even though he didn’t want to admit it but compared to those trash sons of dukes and nobles, Aditya’s character was 100 times better.

The dinner went on for almost 2 hours as Sophie and Adam continued asking many things to Julia and Aditya. As time passed, Aditya noticed that Adam’s hostility toward him was also decreasing which was a good thing.

“Kid, if you want to learn from a runemaster you better get up early in the morning.”

“Good Night Aditya.”

“Good Night Aunty”

“Mom, I am going to take a look after my lab.” Julia was away from home for a few years. She has been dying to see the condition of her lab.

“Sure, but don’t stay up late.” While Julia went to her lab, Aditya returned to his bedroom and laid down after wearing his pajamas.

“Before 15 days, I will have to reach 3rd-order.”
