On hearing this, Aditya didn't think much and said whatever came to his mind next. "Then am I your dream man?" Aditya instantly regretted saying these words. After all, Amelia was his mother-in-law. He shouldn't say such words to someone like her. He didn't want to make her think that he was flirting with her.
But contrary to his expectations, her reaction was very different. Her reaction surprised him a lot.
Amelia's face instantly flushed red. Steams started coming out of her head as she lowered her head.
"Dream man....?" She murmured these words with a dreamy look.
In her mind,
She imagined a half-naked Aditya on top of her. He had pinned her down. "We shouldn't do this. After all, I am your mother-in-law." Amelia said as she looked away.
Aditya harshly grabbed her chin and made her look at him. "From now on you're my Woman." He said these words in a dominating tone.

"Kyaaaa!!!"Aditya didn't know what happened, but Amelia buried her face with her palms and squealed in happiness.
"..."
Seeing her like this Aditya felt speechless. His lips twitched. He wondered what this woman was thinking in her mind.
Aditya didn't ask what she was thinking. Since their conversation was over, he silently left the room.

Scene change____
"So what did you and mom speak about?" While alongside Aditya, Riya asked. She was curious about what topic Amelia and Aditya were talking about.
Aditya held Riya's hand and said. "A lot of topics. But in short, we're going to stay here for 2 weeks. After that, our engagement will be officially announced." Aditya specifically maintained the part that would make Riya happy. As for the rest, there was no need to mention it to her.
The past is always the past. Instead of thinking about the past, enjoying the present and working towards a bright future is better.
"Really!!!" As expected Aditya's words really made Riya happy. She couldn't control her happiness. She instantly hugged Aditya.
"Ah.... I am so happy right now....." Riya always has been worried that her mother would oppose their marriage but now hearing Aditya's words she felt relieved and extremely happy knowing that she no longer has to worry about anything. As for what the rest of the council or the public thought, she didn't care. She would leave these things for Aditya to deal with.
Riya never wanted to become the Empress of the Celestial Terrain. Instead, she always has dreamed of becoming Aditya's wife ever since they were children. Although her mother trained her to become the next Empress, she never put her heart into her training.
'Even if I have to really become the Empress, then I would leave all of the administrative work to Aditya.' Riya made up her mind. If Aditya knew what his wife was planning, then he would freak out. He already had too many things on his plate. And if all of the administrative work of the Celestial Terrain was pushed on him, then he would be spending his whole time in his office. Even though he is a cultivator, he might die from an overload of work.
If the Celestial Terrain was a small Kingdom then he could have considered this as an idea but the Celestial Terrain was the entire Elven Continent. There is no way Aditya alone can handle the administrative work of an entire Continent. But it would be possible if he had talented people under him.
Aditya didn't know what Riya was thinking. Even if she currently voiced out her thoughts to him, Aditya wouldn't reject her. Instead, he would try to create a system where most of the work would be done by others and Riya would just need to supervise everything.
Aditya hugged Riya back and enjoyed the feeling. Her breasts were pressing on his chest. Her breasts were really soft and bouncy. Riya's breasts weren't as huge as Alicia's. Her breasts were modest-sized; neither too huge nor too small, just perfect in size.
While Riya and Aditya were hugging, a certain blond man was watching them from the distance. The man was angrily gritting his teeth as he watched Aditya hug Riya. Angrily he stepped towards the couple.
"Hey, Riya! Long time no see." Hearing the voice, Riya and Aditya separated. Both of them looked at the 3rd wheel that came to ruin their intimate moment. Neither of them was happy about the fact that someone had to ruin their intimate moment.
But seeing that it was her own cousin, there was nothing that Riya could do. She didn't show her anger and greeted her cousin. After all, she couldn't blame a family member for approaching her after not seeing her for so many months.
"Hello, Cousin! It has been a while since I saw you." Riya greeted him back.
Aditya looked at the man who interrupted them. As a man, he could see that this cousin of Riya had feelings for Riya. Aditya can see that this man was really jealous of him. This whole time he was ignoring Aditya as if he didn't even exist.
'From what Riya has told me about her family, this man should be Riya's Aunt Seraphine's son.' Aditya thought while staring at him.
He was as tall as Aditya. His hair was blond and long; his hair reached his waist. He had green pupils and a very handsome face. He was fair-skinned and slightly muscular in size. From his Aura, Aditya concluded that this man was a Peak 5th-order cultivator.
'His name is Thalos. Thalos is more than 100 years older than Riya. But he was still not married. Because in Elven society, elves tend to marry once they are above 100 years old. Even Riya's grandmother married very late.'
"Thalos, let me introduce you to my future husband and my fiance, Aditya. Aditya is the Emperor of the Istarin Empire." Riya cheerfully introduced Aditya to Thalos.
"Aditya, this is my cousin Thalos."
Thalos gave Aditya a condescending look before stretching out his hand for a handshake. Aditya just smiled and shook his hand. As both men shook hands, Thalos tried to use his strength to give some pain to Aditya but...
To Thalos's shock even though he had put his full strength, he couldn't hurt Aditya. Riya noticed that Thalos's face was turning red as if he was being suffocated. But Aditya's face remained normal. He had a small smirk on the corner of his face.
Aditya let go of Thalos's hand. "It's nice to meet you, brother Thalos. If you have time then please visit the Istarin Empire. This Dragon Monarch will personally host you." Aditya was indirectly warning Thalos to not get any funny ideas if he did then he would personally kill him. The only reason he was still on his foot even after disrespecting Aditya is because he was Riya's cousin.
But that didn't mean that he was going to tolerate being disrespected by him again and again. This was Aditya's final warning.
Riya was completely oblivious to the silent interaction that took place between them. "By the Riya, didn't you say that you were going to show me around the Capital?"
"Oh....Yeah..... I totally forgot about that."
"Big brother, it was nice meeting you. I will talk to you later." Saying that Riya took Aditya's hand and began to walk away. But as Aditya was leaving, he turned back and looked at Thalos.
Aditya gave him a friendly smile. But to Thalos, this was the same as the God of Death from hell smiling at him. His whole body started shivering. His face went pale as if someone had drained blood from his body. His legs and hands started shaking.
Even though Aditya had released just a tiny fraction of his killing intent, Thalos felt he was being drowned in a sea of blood and corpses. He felt suffocated. He was having difficulty in breathing. He felt like he was going to pass out any time soon.
As Aditya and Riya left the area, Thalos couldn't hold on any longer. He fell to his knees. Drops of sweat rolled down his cheeks.
"I felt like an ant in front of him. Just what kind of monster is he?" Thalos looked at the direction in which Aditya and Riya had left.
Once he calmed down, without wasting any more time, he rushed to talk with his mother.
Meanwhile, Riya was happily walking beside Aditya without knowing what had happened. "Are you close with your cousin?" Aditya suddenly asked.
Due to the age gap between them, Riya never really spent too much time with her cousin. "Not really."
"Thalos is more like a big brother to me."
"Hmmm!!!" Aditya listened and said nothing.
'It seems I would need to make some modifications to my plan.' Aditya coldly thought in his mind. People like Thalos were everywhere. This is why Aditya pressured him with a tiny fraction of his killing intent. But if Thalos didn't learn from his mistake and tried to come at Aditya again, next time, he wouldn't be so kind.
'Who knows the next day Thalos might be found dead?'
