Divine Emperor of Death

In the underground cave, Davis arrived before the words of lightning as his eyes shone in expectation. However, he narrowed his eyes as he felt pent up from all the intimate moments and teasing he had received from Sophie, Niera, and Nadia.

'What's with her? What's with me? She is already mine but do I want to make her mine, in a sexual sense...?' Davis realized this strange feeling as he shook his head.

He crossed a line at that moment when he passionately responded to her instead of stepping back, and he felt like there was no going back.

However, did Nadia think of him the same way?

'Most likely, yes...' Davis heaved a heavy sigh.

Now that he thought about it, it was rather obvious, and he had a clue about it with how she strangely behaved a few times in the past, but he did not dare to contemplate it for several reasons.

'Making a magical beast my woman...?' Davis's expression became a bit amused once he thought what his wives would come to think of him.

Would they accept Nadia?

Would his parents accept? What would Clara think of him when all this happens? He knew that he wasn't setting her a good example anymore and couldn't help but think if that adorable soul would start to look at him with a gaze full of disgust.

Davis didn't know, and although he still felt awkward about what happened above, he chose to concentrate on the matter before him.

He raised his hand, and a gaseous form of pure white light surged out from his hands as it began to encase the words of lightning in its magnificence. It looked the same, but the aura it released was vastly different than before.

Davis couldn't help but smile a bit as he measured the prowess of his soul force now. It was no longer at the Low-Level King Soul Stage level, nor was it at the very peak of it but had already crossed into the Mid-Level King Soul Stage!

Although he mused that he was at the bottom of the Mid-Level Soul King Stage, would the Mid-Level King Soul Stage Experts even compare to him? He looked down on them that the insights and the resonation they had with the heaven and earth energy might very well be lower that they could not compare to him on the same stage and level.

Of course, unless they had a specialized inheritance, he was bent on looking down on them in terms of prowess because as far as he had seen and heard, if there are only nine, or perhaps ten Soul Emperors in the entire Fifty-Two Territories, then the number of Soul Kings would definitely be limited, probably roaming in the number of thousands.

Most of them should've gotten to that point without much comprehensive comprehension of the King Soul Stage, and as a result, they might lose to him and most Soul Kings who had a consolidated inheritance that made them comprehend and resonate more efficiently with the heaven and earth energy, much less him when considering that he had both Fallen Heaven and the Incandescent Vermilion Soul Mantra, of which the latter is a Peak-Level Emperor Grade Cultivation Manual.

Although comprehension was a problem to him, resonating by circulating the manual wasn't. He had the upper hand, and he was assured of it.

In this case, although Ancestor Tirea Snow might have become a Soul King, she was one of the weaker Soul Kings he was musing about.

As many thoughts flooded his mind, Davis continued to actively heal the lightning strands. As always, the lightning strands shook lightly but didn't even show a sliver of an adverse reaction. However, they became more bright as a few minutes passed by, causing him to have a satisfied smile on his face.

However, he was none the wiser because he didn't know how long would it take for him to forcefully stimulate these strands of lightning, but looking at it glow brighter than before, looking no longer dull, he mused that it might only be a few weeks or months at best.

At this moment, he felt a person appear behind him.

"You've come, Nadia..." Davis uttered as he kept his gaze on the words of lightning.

"Master, I..." Nadia uttered as she became hesitant, "I'm sorry... I was wrong. I couldn't wait to get my reward..."

"Reward...?" Davis's eyes widened as he recalled her asking him something like that, saying that she had it all the time with him and that she can wait until this was over.

'So she was really lonely here...' He realized that not seeing him for a while was the turning point where she became unable to hold herself back. However, since she probably only wanted a kiss as a reward, he went too far by trying to dual cultivate with her in the heat of the moment.

He finally understood why she escaped from his grasp as it wasn't probably her intent to sleep with him. However, to leave him blue-balled like that made him extremely uncomfortable.

Nevertheless, feeling complicated about what happened above, he wanted to make their relationship clear.

"Nadia, do you love me?" A confused voice echoed from him.

Nadia's eyes widened, her mouth slightly parting in panic, "I... I think so..."

"You think so...?" Davis narrowed his eyes, making him understand that she was hesitant about it the same way he was a moment ago.

His lips curved, a smile appearing on his face, "That answer is a bit too vague..."

"Master, I already.... feel like I want to have your child..."

Davis's expression froze as he heard her lovable sentence.

'Okay, that is a bit way too clear...' He gulped and stopped using the life-like energy as he turned to look at Nadia, looking at her fair white face that became filled with a deep crimson hue.

Her golden eyes entranced him while the crescent on her forehead appeared alluring, making him feel that she was the personification of the moon. While his brain felt that he should not have feelings like love towards a magical beast, his heart didn't listen.

The character that he perceived to be close kin now no longer seemed to be the case. He began to see Nadia as another woman he could love and make love with, which made his heart feel strangely flutter while having mixed feelings about the whole situation.

"But..." Nadia's voice echoed again as she lowered her head, "We cannot have a child together. It's useless..."

"Who said that?" Davis narrowed his eyes, "Nadia, there is a way..."

"Becoming Immortals...?" Nadia's lips quivered as she raised her head, "I can't... I've reached my limit. My bloodline shackles don't even allow me to reach the Emperor Rank Species, and even if I did, it would be the last time I ever mutated because it would already be the third time!"

By the end of her sentence, she hysterically screamed before she paused, her expression strangely producing a smile, "That's why I'm satisfied with master's favor and this reward."

"Nadia..." Davis was taken aback as he didn't think that she would have worries like these in her heart. His expression became agitated, "You're satisfied? Who do you think your lying to, Nadia!?"

Until his thing startled her, she looked extremely happy, receiving his kisses with a stupid and wild smile on her face. He was at the level where he wouldn't believe her if she told him that she didn't love him.

"Limit?" Davis became upset, "Your bloodline shackle is something I said that I would help you deal with, so why wouldn't you believe me?"

"I believe you master, more than anyone..." Nadia's voice trembled as she took a step back and shook her head, "But I don't believe that my blood is capable of reciprocating the belief I have in you. I don't want to see Master look sad for my disability to proceed pas-"

"Nadia, just believe me..." Davis interrupted.

"But Master... I..." Nadia's expression trembled as her rosy lips quivered, "Yes..."

She looked at his sapphire eyes that were full of confidence and reliance that she couldn't help herself from saying yes even though she couldn't find anything substantial that he could make her mutate for the fourth time, much less the fifth time.

Even her bloodline memories only contained a vague record of Dark-Winged Twilight Wolf mutating two times to enter the fabled Immortal Stage and ascend to another world, but that magical beast had only mutated two times, contrary to her who had already mutated two times but also became a King-Tier Magical Beast.

The Dark-Winged Twilight Wolf's requirements to mutate were vague, making her not know what these resources were until she saw it for herself with her own eyes. Nevertheless, her mutation conditions were unknown, but she knew that it would be far more stringent and difficult than normal Dark-Winged Twilight Wolves needed.

Davis neared and stood in front of her. He could see that she was casting him a bewildered gaze, just like how he was confused about how he should behave with her now that things had become more complicated between them.

He raised his hand and cupped her chin with his finger, bringing his lips closer to hers as he kissed her the next moment. It was a soft kiss that Nadia's heart began to flutter with strange and complex emotions once again, making her both sad and ecstatic at the same time.

Once they separated, Nadia's mouth moved, "Master, my bloodline memories keep telling me that what I'm doing is wrong, that I should not be with a human... I have already once broken that by becoming your mount as it was relatively easier to do so than what I'm trying to do now..."

Davis smiled to her worries, "What do you want to do now?"

"I don't know what I should do..." Nadia helplessly shook her head, "I saw Zanna happily be with Mival, and although he is a fey, he was once a human. However, I don't want Master to become like Mival just because he became one by probably absorbing Zanna's blood essence... Besides, Evelynn and the other Mistresses would become sad and come to resent me, perhaps even try to kill me..."

"Why would they?" Davis consoled as he chuckled, "Evelynn likes you very much. I'm sure that she wouldn't hold it against you for turning me into a fey... but it's too bad that I have no intention of becoming one. I'd like to stay a human, a shameless human who fell in love with so many women, including a magical beast."

"Master..." Nadia's expression kept trembling as her eyes became moist, making it obvious that she was way beyond moved. Her lips parted.

"Master, I love you, but I understand that in the human world, people will come to resent and criticize you for having affection towards me just like the magical beasts would start to look down on me for having these feelings towards a human... I don't want to see somebody disrespect Master."

"So many worries for a budding flower like yourself..." Davis retrieved his hand back and walked back to the words of lightning.

"You know what? You can start loving me seriously by calling me Davis instead of Master..." He began working on the strands of lightning as he echoed, "I want to release the pact we have since we now both know we have these complicated and confusing feelings towards each other, but since the pact has numerous advantages for you, I'd like it to let it stay that way..."

"What do you say?"

"Please let it stay that way..." Nadia smiled, "I feel like I am always connected to Master with that pact..."

"What did I say?" Davis's lips moved in expectation.

Nadia became taken aback before her rosy lips began to tremble with a kind of eagerness that she had never felt before.

"... connected to D-Davis~"

"Ahaha! Good!" Davis began to laugh out loud, feeling more and more resolute to make Nadia his woman.

So what if they felt that having a relationship with the other race was taboo? Would it be the same in the Immortal World? Davis didn't think so and considering that there should be so many feys walking among these Fifty-Two Territories, he believed that the three races once freely shared cultured with each other even if there were differences and struggles!
