Order.

Carl was indirectly saying that she should step down. So, he could take the throne for himself.

After the hearing obvious, Mary and Theo could not retort as it was true.

Mary was feeling very disgruntled with the court. These people want power, nothing else. They were coveting the throne from Mary. She thought that if her son were to become stronger at the level of Blodig, he could have held his position in this court.

It was purely dependent on strength. As Mary was a woman, even though she was strong she couldn't keep the throne.

Mary glanced at everyone on Carl's side, then her gaze landed on Carl. He looked relaxed although no one could tell by the look on his face, what he was thinking.

Mary stood up in a relaxed manner. Her movements seemed very slow they were very elegant.

"In ten years' time, My son will become the Emperor, succeeding his father. His strength will be tested at that time and according to that it will be decided."

"No more discussions on this matter. If you desire, you can challenge Theo." Mary declared with a smile. She knew that in that span of ten years, none of them will have the strength compared to Theo. She had confidence that her son would win against these weaklings.

Mary left the hall, but the officials were still in a daze. She just declared that if anyone want the throne, they could just defeat Theo and become the emperor.

After Mary left the hall with Jian following behind, the entire started buzzing.

Theo's strength was not a threat right now and they thought Theo was a newly-born dragon who has just passed his twenties.

Carl was brimming with joy. If he could kill Theo and after that by removing Mary, he would have no one to oppose him. The empire would be in his control.

While the situation in the court hall escalated to such a level, Theo was busy with himself in the training field. He stood in the center of the field with a serene expression on his face.

The air around him was circling around him slowly as it raised. Theo bent his upper body slightly with his whole body trembling. The next second, his skin started turning in reddish color. The reddish skin then turned to scales.

His size also began increasing along with the scales on his body. His clothes were torn, not able to withstand his growing body.

This was a phenomenon of turning into a dragon. Theo was turning into a dragon.

A few minutes later, about 20 meters tall and wings widespread, a red color dragon fully occupied the field. He had a total thick red complexion. His dragon eyes had a black slit in the middle of them which looked like a void. He had sharp claws.

His strong breath made the surrounding air shake violently.

Jian was standing on the balcony of the mansion. He was looking at Theo. "He will be able to grow in the coming years. He looks exactly like his mother."

Beside him, Kaiser was astonished to see Theo. His fierce and raging appearance left him agape. It was the first time seeing Theo change into a dragon.

In the city, Kaiser visited, all of them were in human form for convenience. The human form was better and had a lot of advantages for them. So some of them have the ability to turn into humans while others use magical potions.

Kaiser looked at Theo and observed him intently. He could feel the heavy pressure emitting from Theo. It was raw and intense like a raging volcano. He felt weak in front of Theo.

He had a series of thoughts going through his mind. He was continuously practicing and learning.

"You have time in your hands. Utilize it properly." Seeing kaiser was in a daze, Jian said to him. He understood what he might be thinking. From the time he came to Jian till now he had not wasted a single day to leisure out. He was determined and possessed a strong will to become a powerful individual. So that no one can manipulate him in any way.

Jian said folding his hands, " From now on I will teach you the sword." Till now Kaiser has done only swinging and building up his body. Now Jian said he will begin teaching him.

Kaiser nodded his head.

Theo flew up in the sky, this shook the entire mansion and produced a loud sound. The pressure from the wings fanning created a strong wind.

He hovered in the mid-air and looked toward the palace and flew toward the center of the palace.

***

In the hall, they were still officials seated and talking to Carl. It was the members who supported him. As they were talking, they heard a deafening loud noise.

ROOOOOAAAAARRRRRRR

Ear-splitting growls were heard. The noise itself can shake an entire mountain.

All of the members present in the hall were startled suddenly. Carl looked in the direction of the sound, he furrowed his eyebrows in confusion.

Theo flew to the palace and landed gently on the top of the palace. He once again roared into the sky. It was like declaring to the world, his presence.

Carl sensed the presence of Theo and a faint smile appeared on his face. He had never expected that as soon as Mary declared. Now Theo came here and showed himself.
