Divine Emperor of Death

Chapter 5256: Towards The South

”Wh-What was that?” The Handsome Fatty was still shaken. He held the railing to prevent himself from falling to his knees.

”Well, just a bunch of frogs gazing at the well to catch an annoying fly.”

Davis waved his hand dismissively before he asked with a frown, ”Where are Illumina and Epsila?”

”They-they-” Handsome Fatty still looked terrified as he tried to answer.

”Hmm?”

”They went to find a World Hegemon Grade Treasure nearby.”

”I see...” Davis’s brows relaxed before he squinted his eyes at him, ”Why aren’t you leading when trying to find the treasures?”

”Huh?” Handsome Fatty finally came back to himself when he was questioned as he shot Davis a grave look, ”I can’t beat your rabbit girlfriend in a battle, so she told a weakling like me to stay back and guard you instead so that I won’t die venturing out. She’s indeed kind and brave like a true warrior.”

”...” Davis went speechless.

His Illumina sure was kind. She was blunt like Fiora but also compassionate since she knew Fatty had a family to take care of in his world ring.

”Master, congratulations on comprehending Level Two Obscure Intent of Phyletic Laws of Scythe!~”

Abruptly, a melodious voice echoed, causing Davis to calmly turn his head and nod at Illumina, who was flying towards him from the distant valley.

”Congratulations! Congratulations!” Epsila sat on Illumina’s head, repeating the latter’s words with an innocent peal of laughter.

Illumina was returning after collecting the treasure when she suddenly found herself freeze on the spot, a cold chill managing to seep inside her even though she was a spectral rabbit herself. She had sensed the strange phenomenon outside. As soon as it disappeared, she shot out of the secret area and wondered where the enemy was as she looked around, but found Davis on the deck, uninjured and out of seclusion.

Davis received them with a smile full of relief.

He was most worried that something untoward might happen while he was in seclusion. However, he wanted to comprehend the insights he had gathered and consolidate to breakthrough in Phyletic Laws of Scythe before they could escape his grasp.

Fortunately, he had broken through and increased the power of his scythe intent. Comprehending Level Two Obscure Intent of Phyletic Laws of Scythe left him in a good mood and a serene mind that greatly aided his Enigmatic Will as well.

He felt that if he made another improvement in Level Three Obscure Intent of Enigmatic Heart Laws, his Will might even reach Late Stage World Hegemon Stage- although he also felt it was just wishful thinking.

How could it be so easy to improve in this fabled intent when everyone who did improve had to come an halt or went insane?

Like Mingzhi had plateaued in Level Two Obscure Intent, he also felt like Level Three Obscure Intent was his limit. After all, the Will comprises everything a person could do, so how was he supposed to improve it? Just purely dominate? In that case, he felt the chances of him going insane might surge.

He wasn’t going to fall in the same trap his predecessors did.

”Reporting to Master. Epsila and I have managed to collect three World Hegemon Grade Treasures so far, so we have five in total. Other than the Dark Eon Illusory Dream Flower and Abyssal Hydra Bloodfruit, we have the Realmblaze Kirin Emberfruit, Void Devouring Starsteel and Verdant Bloodcrystal Jade.”

”Oh? You recognize these treasures?” Davis raised his brows with some surprise.

The names of the treasures also made him smile since it seemed like they could be used for his family. Moreover, a divine ore like the Void Devouring Starsteel should be enough for Sophie to practice creating World Hegemon Grade Armaments. He wondered if there were more uses for it.

Illumina frowned slightly, ”Bjorn told us. His soul body died in the ruins while we were searching.”

”...”

Davis shot a glance at Handsome Fatty, causing the latter to look away, embarrassed as he dodged Davis’s gaze.

”...” Davis blinked. He wanted to defend Handsome Fatty when Illumina came back, but he just proved her right.

”...” Handsome Fatty’s gaze darted in response.

”...”

”...”

Davis continued to stare before Handsome Fatty could no longer take it and yelled out, his face red.

”You think harvesting World Hegemon Grade Treasures is easy? There are countless dangers. I’ll tell you that if it weren’t for me, it would’ve taken so much time for them to harvest the treasures considering the number of pitfalls there. Thanks to my incredible experience, they can come out of the ruins unscathed.”

”Alright, alright, don’t be mad.” Davis abruptly laughed out, ”Since you worked hard, I won’t let you starve. I’ll give you a World Hegemon Grade Treasure.”

”Really?”

”Yeah, if we manage to get all thirty-four.”

”...!”

Handsome Fatty raged, looking like he was about to explode as he felt like he was led on. No, he was led on as he saw Davis burst into laughter again, making him pounce on Davis, causing Davis’s voice to be muffled before it died under the mountainous weight, the flying ship even sinking.

Yet, Davis sat on the roof of the cabin, having put the fatty under an illusion while cradling Illumina over his arm while having her sit on his lap.

”Illumina...”

He kissed her sweet, rosy, pale lips with wanton desire, causing her to squeal in his embrace. Her golden pupils quivered with every kiss, and her rabbit ears sprang as they stood on end. His touches were gentle and incredibly pleasuring, making her squirm in his grasp.

Epsila watched the ship sink as the fatty rolled on the ship’s surface while a couple made out.

It was really a strange sight that she couldn’t grasp.

But the flying ship had to be saved, so Davis had no choice but to let go of Illumina and wake up Handsome Fatty from his dreams. Davis was speechless since as soon as the fatty dealt with him, the fatty had woken up from the illusion.

The illusion wasn’t that powerful since Davis didn’t cast it with any intent other than wanting to have a sweet moment with Illumina. After all, the fatty was always hampering him from getting intimate with Illumina.

Rather than fate, this was friendly fire.

However, the fatty refused to leave the illusion as he continued to get bigger and bigger like a true titan and crush him as though he wouldn’t get another chance later.

In the end, he sank all the way to the ground and crushed him along with the flying ship as they crashed into the ground, creating a crater in the illusion.

Only then did fatty wake up from the illusion and found Davis glaring at him for sinking the ship halfway to the ground, but the fatty’s smile grew more profound as though he had won.

”...” Davis blinked.

This fatty clearly ruined his fun with Illumina.

It seemed like Handsome Fatty really hated losing that he got revenge. However, it wasn’t just that.

*Bang!*

Davis sent the fatty flying with a kick to his butt and laughed, ”Haha, eat this, fatty. Make sure to find your way back to the Bastion Cities and help my family out later. I’ll send them to gift you a treasure worthy of your huge stature.”

”Ah! Little emperor! I’ll get even with you later!”

The Handsome Fatty cried out mid-air as he watched the flying ship vanish into thin air as they used the warp mechanism.

Eventually, he sighed and shrugged, thinking Davis was too nice to throw him out and get intimate with Illumina or even kill him for spying on them, so he made a fuss and got thrown out successfully. With that being the case, no one can find fault with him, or he would take it up to their face and shove his fist down their throat.

”I, Handsome Fatty, am the best wing man to ever exist for my friends and subordinates.”

He said proudly before summoning a flying ship that he owned and warping out.

”But damn it, one day, I’ll get even with you!!! You’re too hateful, and I don’t like supreme geniuses!”

His aggrieved voice echoed out as his cheeks shook, causing the mountains and rivers left behind to shake. Fortunately, they were in the south near the Southern Abyssal Tidal Sea. The Bastion Cities were located nearby, so it was best that he got dropped here.

In the flying ship, Davis led Illumina and Epsila to the Southern Abyssal Tidal Sea.

He reconnected with his avatar and found that Jaiyan and his avatar were already finished with the central zone and were approaching the rendezvous point, the location where they hid the flying palace Evelynn and the others were in.

As for Fairy Qiyra Darkstar and Fairy Glacia Frigidveil, he asked Illumina, while pinning her down on the bed.

”...”

Illumina was like a cornered rabbit, her heart pounding nonstop as she gazed at him with confusion after a session of heavy kissing. Her pale rosy lips gleamed with saliva, and her voice cracked under his electrifying gaze.

Her mind was constantly asking just one question: if it was okay to really do this, cross the line and become her master’s woman. At that point, she was well aware that she would no longer be a warrior but a female beast in heat. Everything she had built in the Davis Family might come crashing down.

She would have a new identity, one that would greatly lower her intent to sacrifice herself for her master but instead expect him to protect her willfully.

Her blood soared with lust that she tried to suppress with the cold yin of her spectral nature.
