Dragon Monarch System

Chapter 576 576:- New City Lord

At this moment Calista did not know if she was having a sweet dream or if all of this was real. What started as a nightmare soon turned into a fantasy dream that she never expected to be real. A mysterious powerful cultivator had come and had destroyed the arrogance that the Patriarch of the Tigrine Clan Zarim had. The man whom Calista never saw lower his head even when he was eating food had completely submitted himself to this mysterious powerful cultivator. 'Just who is this person?' Calista wondered in her mind as she stood up on her legs. Calista had completely given up any hope of surviving. She thought that along with Zarim, this mysterious powerful cultivator was going to kill her as well but that did not happen. Contrary to her expectations, Zarim changed his behavior. He did not act like a braindead and talked to this mysterious cultivator in an arrogant tone. Calista was sure that Zarim was going to do something like this. But he didn't.

Thanks to the pill that this mysterious powerful cultivator gave her, Calista's legs were completely healed. At the same time, she felt that the hidden injuries and other small wounds in her body also had been healed. Eating this pill she felt like she had been reborn completely. Calista felt that her body had gotten lighter. She was able to breathe more freely. She also noticed that her skin had become more smooth and softer. "Thank you so much. I don't know how I will ever thank you for such a priceless gift." Calista bowed her head to Aditya and thanked him from the bottom of her heart. Hearing this Aditya was very satisfied. He liked this woman's attitude. "There is certainly a way you could repay me for this gift of mine." Calista raised her head and waited for Aditya's next words. "But before that, tell me your name?" Aditya asked. "My name is Calista, Sir!!" "Calista, what do you think about becoming the City Lord of Savannahclaw City." Hearing this, Zarim became slightly agitated. He opened his mouth to speak but in the end, no words came out of his mouth. Zarim was very dissatisfied. He was the City lord of Savannahclaw City. But then how come Aditya was asking Calista to come the City Lord? Moreover, Calista was his personal maid and if his personal maid becomes the City Lord, could he show his face to his clan? The people are going to mock him. By now he had understood his position very well. He had no authority to speak to a cultivator who held such mighty power. If he did, it wouldn't even take a second for the Grim Reaper to take his soul. Meanwhile, Calista was taken aback by hearing this sudden yet shocking proposal. "Seriously...!!!!" She asked in a loud tone. Her tone was slightly excited as well. "I am being serious here. In addition to becoming the City Lord of Savannahclaw City, I will also provide you with all the resources to become a cultivator. The 5-star healing pill that you ate just now should have removed all the impurities within your body. This in turn would increase your cultivation speed by 2 to 3 times."

"And with the resources that I am going to provide you, as long as you work hard and cultivate diligently then becoming a 5th-order cultivator isn't just a dream." Aditya wasn't going to turn her into a Dragonian. At least not now. Now wasn't the time. "If you accept my proposal, then you will be responsible for developing the Savannahclaw City and also getting rid of all the gangs and criminals from the city. You will have to work to develop this city. If you agree, then you will have the Protection of the Istarin Empire. These are the direct words from the Dragon Monarch." As Aditya said these words, his eyes shined red. Hearing all of what Aditya said just now, Calista's jaw nearly fell to the floor. Meanwhile, Zarim's face became so pale that he looked like an ill patient who was about to die. Knowing that he had nearly messed with the Istarin Emperor and the entire Istarin empire, Zarim nearly fainted. 'Which dog face did I see first in the morning to have such bad luck?' Zarim forgot that the first face that he saw this morning was his own face. He was busy admiring his handsome face very early in the morning. "What do you think, Miss Calista?" Aditya asked.

"Sir....I mean Your Majesty, I am nothing but a poor girl from a very poor family. I don't have any education. I don't know how to write or read anything. For the most part of my life, I have lived like a slave. I don't feel I am worthy of becoming the City Lord of Savannahclaw City." Hearing this Aditya was surprised. 'To think this girl would refuse my offer. How interesting....!!!' Hearing her answer, Aditya felt that no one else was more suited to become the city Lord of Savannahclaw City than Calista. She could have accepted Aditya's offer. As long as she accepted his offer, then he would have provided her with everything. Becoming the City Lord would have meant that, she was going to become a noble. She was going to power that she only dreamed of. Yet facing such temptation, she refused in such a humble manner. "I believe Miss Calista is a good human being. That's more than enough reason. Do not speak of worthiness as every single greatest being to ever walk on his planet had a humble being. You shouldn't feel inferior because of your background and your status." Aditya didn't know that his words had touched Calista's soul. She was never going to forget these words till the end of her life. "Very well, Your Majesty. I shall not disappoint you." Calista got on one knee and lowered her head to Aditya. "You may stand up, Miss Calista." Aditya then turned to Zarim. "Patriarch Zarim, I believe you shouldn't have any problem with my decision. If you have any then please speak." "No.....No.....no.....!!! Your Majesty, I agree with your decision. I and my clan will stand and help Miss Calista in every way possible." Zarim wasn't stupid enough to object to the Istarin Emperor who is also known as the Dragon Monarch's decision. "Good." Aditya "From now on, Miss Calista will become the City Lord of the Savannahclaw City. From now on the entire Savannahclaw City will be under the protection of the Istarin Empire. The Istarin Empire shall help Miss Calista in governing the Savannahclaw City in every way possible." "Your Majesty, not that I am objecting to your decisions but what will happen to my clan?" Zarim's clan controlled the entire Savannahclaw City. But now with Calista becoming the City Lord, didn't it mean that all the power was going to the taken away from his and his clan's hands? "The Tigrine Clan is going to be the protector of the Savannahclaw City. You and your clan shall serve Miss Calista and help her in governing Calista City. Do you agree?" Aditya asked. "Yes, we of the Tigrine clan agree." Zarim's voice wasn't as loud as ever. It looked like he was struggling to speak. He felt that this was unfair to him but what can he do about it?

Nothing!!!

"In exchange for their service, the Tigrine Clan shall receive the following benefits."

"1. Exemption of Taxes: The entire Tigrine Clan will granted a complete exemption from paying taxes on any business they fully own. This meant that any enterprise owned by the clan would be free from the financial burden of taxes, allowing them to invest more in their businesses' growth and development."

"2. Trade Agreements: The Tigrine clan will be given priority in trade routes and access to valuable resources, ensuring a steady flow of wealth to support their endeavors."

"3. Representation: The clan will be granted representation in the city's advisory council, allowing the Tigrine clan to have a say in local governance matters and contribute to the city's development."

"4. Protection and Security: The Tigrine clan will be granted the protection of the Istarin Empire. Along with that, the top 10 most talented members of the clan will be provided with cultivation resources." Just hearing this Zarim was convinced that losing control of the Savannahclaw city and serving Calista was totally worth it. With the protection of the Istarin Empire, their clan that regularly had to fight other clans wouldn't have to fight any clans anymore. The clan will be able to grow strong and the resources provided by the Istarin Empire were definitely going to make their clan even more prosperous. "And lastly, whatever revenue is generated 10% of it will be given to the Tigrine clan for their development. In addition, the Tigrine clan will also receive other privileges."

"I agree, Your Majesty. Thank you very much for giving my clan such a big opportunity." Zarim bowed his head to Aditya. ----------------
