"Aditya, I want to add one thing."
"What you would like to add?" Aditya curiously asked.
"For decades now, My Empire is in conflict with the Mystic Spring Empire on the control of the Anna Maria Icelands. I was forced to settle with 7 islands and the other 7 islands were forcefully taken away by the Mystic Spring Empire. I want total control of the Anna Maria Icelands." Daxton made his intentions clear. The Anna Maria Icelands was a good location for the Echo Dominion Empire.
Using the Anna Maria Icelands, the Echo Dominion Empire would be able to launch an attack on the Mystic Spring Empire from the sea as well. Also, if the Anna Maria Icelands are in Daxton's hands, then no one could use this location to block the foreign ships that come to his Empire.
"Since we're talking about the Anna Maria Icelands, there is something that I want to ask you." After touring around the entire Island with Alicia, Aditya had some plans for this island.
"What is it?" Daxton curiously asked. Adian also looked very curious. He also wanted to know what Aditya wanted.
"This is more like a request."
"Go on. I will try my best to fulfill your request." This war had shown Daxton the powers that the Istarin Empire had. Being an ally of the Istarin Empire would only bring his Empire endless benefits and political powers.
"I want this island." Aditya knew that if Daxton fulfilled his request, then in the future he will owe him one. And Aditya was perfectly alright with that idea.
"Can I ask you Why?" Daxton was curious.
"My fiance likes this place." Not to mention, Aditya also likes this island.
"I don't mind. From this point onwards, this island will belong to the Istarin Empire. The Echo Dominion Empire will have no claim on this island."
"Thank you." Daxton nodded his head.

Scene change________
In the living room, The members of the Oracle Alliance, the Istarin Emperor, The Echo Dominion Emperor, and The Hephaestus Kingdom's King all were sitting on the couches and chairs. Ironically enough, this was the first time all 8 major powers of the northwestern region had gathered for a meeting. And this happened because the Echo Nexus empire had to mess with an Empire from another region.
"It's my and my tribe's honor to have you all on this small island. First of all, I would like to apologize if this isn't up to your standard." Sam bowed his head to show his sincerity. Inside he was extremely nervous. If anything went wrong, this entire island could be destroyed within a few seconds. Each person sitting in this room had immense political and military powers under their command. Just being in their presence made Sam extremely nervous.
"Like I told you from the beginning. There is no need to apologize. We chose this location. If anything it is us who is burdening you and your tribe with our presence." Aditya was sitting in the middle. Alicia was sitting on his right and Spencer was on his left.
"If there is nothing else, then you can get out and let us start this meeting." In an annoyed tone, Lucas told the Tribe leader to leave the room. Sam nodded his head and then left the room with two other Ice elves who were there.
From Lucas's tone, one can easily tell that the Echo Nexus Emperor is very annoyed and displeased. Unlike Aditya who is very relaxed and calm, Lucas looked impatient and looked like he couldn't wait for this meeting to end.
After Sam left, Lucas directly looked at Aditya and asked. "Tell me what you and your allies want?" After all the things that Aditya did, Lucas hated Aditya more than anything else. He didn't want to sit in the same room as Aditya.
Daxton and Aidan turned to Aditya. Neither of them spoke anything. This matter started between the Istarin Empire and the Echo Nexus Empire. Both Emperors were the major power holders in this war and hence had the right to speak while others listened.
"You sound very important, Your Majesty. And here I was thinking of having lunch with everyone." Unlike Lucas, Aditya was completely cool, calm, and collected.
"I don't have for such nonsense. Now tell me what do you want?"
"Since you're being so impatient, then let my Prime Minister tell you what we want from the Oracle Alliance."
'Here it comes.' Prime Minister Philip thought in his mind. He could only pray that the opponent doesn't demand too much.
Aditya looked at Spencer and nodded his head. Spencer took out a golden scroll from his storage ring. Meanwhile, the members of the Oracle Alliance and Lucas himself were curious about the identity of the mysterious woman who was sitting next to Aditya. From the looks of it, Aditya was very close to this woman. So it was very possible, that this woman was Aditya's wife. But as far as they knew Aditya was engaged to Duke Adam's daughter who is famously known as the Goddess of Alchemy. Even though they had questions, no one asked anything due to their pride.
『The Istarin Empire and its allies will accept the surrender of the Oracle Alliance if only the Oracle Alliance agrees to do the following: -
1. First of all, the Mystic Spring Empire will give the Anna Maria Icelands to the Echo Dominion Empire. The Mystic Spring Empire or any member of the Oracle Alliance won't have any rights to conduct any military exercise around the Anna Maria Icelands. If any soldiers or spies from the Mystic Spring Empire or any member of the Oracle Alliance are found near the Anna Maria Icelands then it will be seen as a threat to the Echo Dominion Empire and its allies. In case this was to happen, the Echo Dominion Empire and its allies will immediately take action against the Mystic Spring Empire.』
Hearing this, The Mystic Spring Empire easily agreed and had no problem with these conditions. Although the Anna Maria Icelands were valuable assets to the Mystic Spring Empire, giving up the remaining 7 islands was still acceptable in the Emperor's opinion.
"I agree." The Mystic Spring Emperor easily agreed.
"Next.....
『2. The Echo Nexus Empire will give ownership of the Obi Islands to the Istarin Empire. The Echo Nexus Empire won't have any right to conduct any military exercise near the Obi Islands. If any soldiers or spies or anyone from the military of the Echo Nexus Empire or any member of the Oracle Alliance are found near the Obi Islands then it will be seen as a threat to the Istarin Empire and its allies. In case this was to happen, the Istarin Empire and its allies will immediately take action against the Echo Nexus Empire.』
After Spencer ended his words, everyone's eyes were on Lucas. The Obi Islands weren't just small islands like the Anna Maria Icelands. The Obi Islands were almost big as the mainland territory of the Queenstown Empire. Giving up the ownership of the Obi islands would be a huge loss for the Echo Nexus Empire.
The Obi Island is the largest island in the Northwestern region. The Obi Islands are two islands. One big island and another very small island; the second island is slightly larger than Eldoria Island. Both Islands are often considered one big island. As the distance between both islands is really small. One can go to the small Obi island just by swimming. The Obi Islands are known for their stunning natural landscapes, unique culture, and delicious cuisine.
The Obi Island is renowned for its breathtaking natural scenery. It is characterized by vast open spaces, rolling hills, and rugged mountains. The Obi Island experiences a cooler climate compared to the rest of the mainland. Winters are long and cold with heavy snowfall. The summers are milder and more comfortable and is a popular tourist attraction because of its pleasant temperatures and beautiful flower fields. The Obi Island is home to beautiful lavender fields. Lavender blooms from late June to early August, creating a stunning purple landscape that attracts many visitors.
The Obi Island boasts a rich diversity of magic wildlife. There are magic brown bears, magic deer, magic foxes, and various magic bird species.
The Obi Island is renowned for its hot springs, which are scattered throughout the island. These hot springs offer relaxation and rejuvenation, with mineral-rich waters believed to have healing properties.
Obi Island is also home to the largest Dwarf population in the Dying Isle continent. A major reason why the Echo Nexus Empire's military is so powerful has to do with the dwarves that make high-quality weapons and armor for the Echo Nexus Empire.
The Obi Islands have the second-biggest gold mine. Most importantly, Obi Island also has an Etherium mine. Throughout the entire Dying Isle Continent, only the Echo Nexus Empire has Etherium Mine. Etherium stone is 10 times more valuable than mana stones. The Echo Nexus Empire earns a large chunk of its money through selling Etherium and gold mined from the Obi Islands.
In short words, the Obi Islands were simply too valuable for the Echo Nexus Empire. The two Islands were full of resources and treasures. Giving up the Obi islands would mean that the Echo Nexus empire's GDP was going to shrink by 23.5%. And this wasn't simply acceptable. Not to mention, if the Istarin Empire were to get the Obi islands, then the Echo Nexus Empire will be surrounded from two sides. The Istarin Empire will be able to launch an attack on the Echo Nexus Empire from the northwest. And the Echo Nexus Empire already had the Echo Dominion Empire at its eastern borders.
If in case another war breaks out, this time the Echo Nexus empire will be attacked from two sides. Giving up the Obi islands would be the same as letting an enemy live next to your house.
"Impossible. There is no way I am going to give up the Obi Islands." Lucas immediately refused. The Obi Islands were simply too valuable.
"You don't have any other choice." Meeting Aditya's cold-red eyes, Lucas slightly shivered in fear. He felt frightened. He had no choice but to look away.
"What else do you want?" Lucas asked.
While keeping his eyes on Lucas, Aditya signaled Spencer to keep reading.
『3. The Methia Empire will give ownership of the Catalina Islands to the Hephaestus Kingdom. If any soldiers or spies from the Methia Empire or any member of the Oracle Alliance are found near the Catalina Islands then it will be seen as a threat to the Hephaestus Kingdom and its allies. In case this was to happen, the Hephaestus Kingdom and its allies will immediately take action against the Methia Empire.』
Adian and his prime minister were very surprised to hear this. After all, the Hephaestus Kingdom did not provide much help in this war. It was the Istarin Troops and Aditya who defended his Kingdom and also won the war. If anything, his soldiers were more like a burden to everyone and were hindering their progress. For this, Adian feels very ashamed.
Adian thought that he had made his intentions clear. In exchange for siding with the Istarin Empire, he wanted Aditya's help in rebuilding his Kingdom and getting rid of all waste. Through Aditya, he hoped to re-establish order within the entire Kingdom.
"The Catalina Islands?" The Methia Emperor was surprised. Just like the Obi Islands are very important to the Echo Nexus Empire, the Catalina Islands were important to the Methia Empire.
The central part of the Northwestern region was very hot and dry due to numerous factors. Since a big part of the Methia Empire was in the center of the northwestern region, the Methia Empire did not have much fertile land. Around 20 to 30% of the Empire's food needs were fulfilled by the Catalina Islands which had rich fertile soil and very suitable condition for growing rice.
"Your Majesty, with all due respect, giving up the Catalina Islands would be the end of My Empire. We would be struggling to make ends. The food prices are going to rise and millions of people are going to starve to death. Giving up the Catalina Islands isn't an option for me and for my people."
