Divine Emperor of Death

Chapter 1452 - Makes It Right

"Brother, I just kissed him on the cheek! Why can Edward sleep and be intimate with his women, but I cannot at least kiss my love? This is not fair...!"

"Hey, don't make it look like it's my fault!"

Diana and Edward simultaneously spoke that Davis couldn't help be dumbfounded again along with his wives. Diana looked so aggrieved that she looked like she was going to start a war with Edward as she pointed at him.

Looking at them clench their teeth against each other, Davis sighed.

He could perceive that Diana tried her best to hold back before it looks like she was a bit encouraged and spurred by Edward's brazenness. After all, they were always fighting against each other like rivals and would try to get one over each other.

However, he couldn't exactly keep a young maiden in love waiting forever, could he, or could anyone?

A kiss on the lips didn't mind him at all, much less a kiss on the cheeks.

After all, they were lovers, and who was he to say otherwise? He may have a say, but it was only enough to influence her and not force her. Of course, if Wayn did not meet his standards, he might have to be forceful, but it was not like he would be an overbearing parent who declined or denied their child's relationship for silly reasons.

"Diana, do you still love Wayn Nolan...?"

Diana trembled as she lowered her arm, holding it as she nodded her head.

"Yes..."

"And he loves me too. Elder sis can vouch for me." She gazed at Clara, imploring her to tell the truth with her moist eyes.

Clara sighed and looked at Davis, "She's right, brother."

"I agree that he is in love with Diana, but men are capable of loving multiple women with that same love."

As she said that, she shot a look at Edward before returning her gaze to Davis, causing them to awkwardly smile. Nevertheless, she continued.

"I can't confirm that he would stay loyal to our little sister, so when I said that he wasn't worthy and that we would marry her off, that brat dared to say that he would make the Loret Family pay if we married her to anyone else before he got miserably disciplined by his father, Ray Nolan. He must be seething with the anger, an intent to get stronger by now, and it has been a year already. I'm rather interested to see how he has improved..."

Clara imperceptibly smirked while Diana was dumbfounded.

When did this happen!? All she knew that they were forbidden to see each other until her father, mother, and brother returned to give their verdict.

"Clara, you actually bought the villain role by yourself?"

Davis looked surprised.

"Is that what it's called? Everyone thinks of me as a tyrant, but I think of myself as an arbitrator. I solved countless problems and conflicts in the many cities that we own that I think father would praise me to the heavens."

Davis's brows twitched. Maybe, she worked too hard as an Empress?

Little did he know that this Empress's reputation as a tyrant was off the charts. However, she was a lovable tyrant that people didn't dislike as she didn't even misuse her powers, at least not yet. Only the evil people and the people who were done in by her hated her to the core.

Nevertheless, Davis shook his head and turned to look at Diana.

"Diana, don't blame your elder sister. She's doing this for your own good..."

"I know..." Diana's voice was low, "But... was there a need to go that far...?"

Davis nodded his head.

"Diana, we men are horny creatures. We'll first get the woman we want and then think about other women if we're capable. Wayn Nolan is not as capable as you and is presumably weaker. I'm not saying that he is inherently weaker. I am saying that we got more resources because of me and higher talent than him because of our mother, who is an Alstreim."

"Let's say that you are married to Wayn Nolan ten years down the line. Wayn Nolan receives resources from our family and becomes stronger. However, you are still stronger than him when he thought that he would surpass you eventually after gaining you. He dared to say that he will make our Loret Family pay if we marry you off, which speaks volumes about his guts."

"Therefore, when he learns that his masculinity is under attack by you, he will search for other women to make up for it, to boost his pride. Even if it's not in this century, it will happen in the next, or perhaps a few centuries down the line, but I assure you that it will eventually happen."

"Tell me, are you okay with sharing women with him?"

Davis asked the same question he asked Clara while advising. His wives couldn't help but silently giggle as they heard him use himself as an example.

Diana bit her lips, shaking her head fiercely. Her answer was clear that she would not like to share Wayn with any other women.

"See, Clara clearly understands your wishes, and that's why she is making you a prize that he needs to earn. He must go through hardsh.i.p.s to earn you and not the other way around. We can't just throw you away to him like that. Otherwise, you are easily disposable to him."

Davis paused, wanting to see Diana's reaction. She bit her lips, understanding what he said but looking complex.

"Are your wives disposable to you, brother?" She abruptly asked.

"No." Davis shook his head, "Look, Diana. I'll be entirely transparent. I would never throw my wives away unless they betray me. Heck, I wouldn't throw them away but outright kill them."

"However, that isn't the case with a certain few men. If even one of their opinion differs, the women are thrown out or killed to the point of being suppressed in their daily lives. My wives are free to have whatever opinion they want or do whatever they want unless it touches the border of betraying me, and they know it too because I'm rather specific."

"You can ask them... I haven't even beaten them once other than a single time where I was uhm, rough... though it was clearly an exception because I was sedated by dragon blood. Nonetheless, I didn't need to raise my hands even once because they all know their limits."

Diana looked at Evelynn and the others and saw them heavily nod before she lowered her head.

"What if he gives up because the hurdle is too big? I mean, would he meet all your expectations?"

Davis looked sincere.

"Diana, we, our parents, we all set the bar too low for him... for you. If he fails even that and gives up, the meaning is clear, that he does not love you as much as you think he does..."

"Brother understands me the best~"

Clara echoed in agreement, her cool voice sounding heartened.

"Okay, I understand, brother."

Diana heavily nodded her head, looking determined as if to hold herself back.

"Look, Diana. As your elder brother, I only want the best for you, both physically and mentally. You should be surprised that Wayn Nolan is alive after picking a fight with our family. I appreciate his suicidal guts, and although I don't know if it came from deviousness or recklessness, I also muse Clara had seen through it. I don't want to get a weak, vulnerable, henpecked husband for you. He's alright but just know that he would be dead long ago if you didn't favor him, not for his father who kept me safe for the first three years after I was born because that was his duty."

"Tell him that when you finally get together with him, okay?"

Davis grinned while Diana smiled as she nodded, looking convinced.

"Good!"

Davis uttered and patted his little sister's shoulder before looking around.

"That's two matters settled, and I'm nothing but proud of you all. You all enjoy the reunion here. Meanwhile, I'll go see the Ruth Empire's Powerful Princess who's waiting for me. I already made her wait too long that she probably hates me a bit..."

"Oh, brother..." Edward smiled widely, "I'm pretty confident that Princess Isabella would like your presence despite the wait."

"Indeed..." Diana had a similar expression, agreeing with her little brother.

Davis raised his brows at them before he looked at Evelynn and the other two women who giggled at him and waved their hands, telling him to scram in an intimate manner together. He couldn't help but smile, feeling so fortunate.

Clara looked a bit reluctant to part with him, her brows slightly frowning, but she still nodded her head, thinking that her brother wasn't hers but his wives.

"Brother, I will do the needful."

Davis blinked before he nodded, "Thanks."

=======

In a huge Imperial Palace that seemed to be built upon Peak-Level Spirit Stone Blocks refined from Peak-Level Spirit Stones, radiating dense energy that made the surroundings rich with a high concentration of heaven and earth energy, two beings were present.

In this region, the other Imperial Palaces were so small that they seemed like cabins compared to a wide skyscr.a.p.er. However, the radius of the dense energy coming from the huge Imperial Palace was still limited, and no one except a single person was allowed to go near this grand, imposing, and luxurious palace.

In a circular cultivation room with a cultivation cushion on the very center integrated with an Energy Gathering Formation of unknown grade sat a beauty whose name was renowned, her strength resounding far and wide, except they still didn't know her true strength.

In the Energy Gathering Formation, High-Level Spirit Stones seemed to have turned into ashes while abruptly Mid-Level Law Manifestation Stage undulations spread with a dormant yet massive might.

"This is getting ridiculous... Do I have to use Peak-Level Spirit Stones to increase Law Dominion Stage Cultivation faster? Using High-Level Spirit Stones for Law Dominion Stage would be so slow that I would have to spend more time to gather and circulate energy at that point..."

"Well, that's what I get for having an extreme Body Tempering Cultivation when compared with Essence Gathering Cultivation. My revolving core's capacity has become massive while my meridian points and veins are just too flexible and resilient enough to contain massive amounts of essence energy."

At this moment, she sensed a person standing behind the door of the cultivation room, appearing very fidgety. She narrowed her eyes and swung open the door as she waved her hands.

"Imperial Father, what's wrong?"

"Ah! Isabella...! I don't know what happened in the Loret Empire, but they have suddenly announced your marriage date to be two weeks later while the venue is our Imperial Capital."

"What...?"

Isabella blinked as she stood up, and then, it suddenly dawned in her mind, a curve inevitably appearing on her lips as her figure suddenly flashed.

*Whoosh!~*

"I'll be right back!"

Emperor Mark Ruth's hair didn't even lift up. He didn't even sense anything, not even her figure that just shot past him at a blinding speed. He blinked, feeling that she had disappeared in front of him as if she had disappeared from the world. Eventually, he just shook his head, understanding that she was a maiden in love.

Princess Isabella had just shot out of her Imperial Palace and was seven hundred meters above the surface, looking in the direction of the Loret Empire.

"Where are you going when I'm here, Isabella?"

She just took a step forward when a calm voice suddenly resounded, causing her to stop in her tracks, her eyes wide while her heart began to palpitate, turning the whites of her eyes moist.

Princess Isabella turned around and saw the silhouette that manifested into the man she loved. Her lips curved into a wide smile as her moist eyes trembled.

"You're back, Davis~"
