Dragon Monarch System Chapter 997

Leo unveils his true identity as the organization's leader, regretting his initial dismissal of Aditya, whom he reveals as a bloodline descendant of the Crimson Dragon King. He recounts how the king's son William founded the Celestial Dragon Empire after his death and admits to efforts in erasing the Crimson Dragon King's history, while denying responsibility for the Demon Invasion and explaining his mission to protect key artifacts like the Crown of Seven Seas for a grand purpose. As Aditya lunges to attack, Leo's phasing avatar evades, releasing a mutated Goblin King; Aditya, struck by a paralyzing debuff that halves his stats, counters with gravity manipulation to slay the beast, unaware that Leo watches from afar to study his powers.
