Divine Emperor of Death

Chapter 1511 - We're All The Same Yet Different

Sophie shook her head, "I don't know about that woman, but I was just afraid that you had stained yourself by touching some women of the wicked path."

Davis blinked before he could tell that she hated wicked path cultivators like she hated Weiss Alstreim. He looked towards the oblivious Niera and asked.

"What about you?"

"I don't know..." She mumbled with a low voice, "I didn't think you would resort to such measures."

Davis, Isabella, and Sophie looked at each other and smiled before Davis asked.

"As far as you recognize, kidnapping a woman is dishonorable and disgraceful, is that right?"

Niera looked around before she hesitatingly nodded her head, feeling that their eyes were prickly while gazing at her.

"Niera, do you think every woman is good to be deserving of that privilege?" Sophie questioned.

"If there are bad men who deserve to die and experience a tragic end, then there are also bad women who deserve the same." Isabella simply stated.

"I agree." Davis nodded, "I don't mean to judge them all cruelly, but if some women generally belong to the wicked path, then whatever tragic fate they may face, it is the consequences of their own actions and the path they've chosen, regardless if it was their complete will or not. After all, they kill, plunder, and destroy for fun or even for no reason, unlike us."

"But... I understand, but..." Niera appeared confused, "You just said that magical beasts also form civilizations. Doesn't that mean that magical beasts are not much different from us? In that case, don't we hunt magical beasts for fun, resources, or sometimes for no reason just to test our powers? What makes us so different from the wicked path?"

Isabella and Sophie's expressions froze.

However, on the other hand, Davis's eyes went wide in surprise. He suddenly reached out his hands and grabbed her head, causing Niera's to tremble as she felt her heart skip a beat, but instead of attraction, she felt herself falling into the depths.

'It's over...! I'm done for...!'

She believed that she had offended him with her words just now.

However, a passionate kiss was planted on her lips, causing her purple eyes to go wide.

She stayed rooted on the spot while Davis savored her taste, making her wonder what she had done to make him this passionate.

Davis separated his lips from her and looked into her charming purple eyes.

"You are right, Niera. In the end, we all fight for survival and growing our strength, but the way we do it makes us divide and blame each other. I will say it again. You are absolutely right, one hundred percent. However, would you side with someone who helps the innocents while they're at it or torment the innocents while they're at it?"

"The former..."

Niera didn't hesitate to answer even while looking dumbfounded.

"You have your answer."

Davis smirked while Niera felt enlightened.

Even Isabella and Sophie, who doubted their thoughts at the moment when Niera threw the bomb, looked at Davis in awe along with Niera. They didn't think much about it initially and just viewed the wicked path with biased notions that they were evil and needed to be eradicated.

That didn't change. However, Davis's answer made them see a difference that they didn't see before.

Davis continued.

"The wicked path women don't... no, they rarely deserve our sympathy and mercy. If they hadn't done any wrong, then they're wrongly claiming themselves to be from the wicked path. However, I couldn't be bothered to investigate each of their past before I make a move when they or their power are trying to kill me, right?"

"I understand. It was just..."

Niera explained her reasons for doubting his action as she hated back when, in the sealed space, those wicked path experts from the Infernal Lightning Palace tried to kidnap their Alstreim Family women from time to time. If it weren't for Ezekiel Alstreim, her grandpa, even she might've been kidnapped in a few scenarios.

"I see. Your doubt about my actions is well deserved, Niera. But there is no need to worry when you need to ask something controversial. You are all free to question my actions as I'm not a tyrant."

Sophie leaped and embraced him, planting her lips while even using her soft pink tongue to c.a.r.e.s.s his lips. He responded by tackling her with his tongue while holding her cheeks.

"Mhm~ Chu~ Sshp~"

Sloppy sounds began to echo while Niera and Isabella grinned at each other, knowing that Sophie felt lonely that she was the only one who had not kissed him. However, their expressions became awkward as they noticed that their tongue action was too stimulating in the next few moments.

"I think that's enough..."

"That's right..."

Voices of protest echoed from Isabella and Niera, albeit meekly, before Davis and Sophie separated as a string of saliva stuck to their lips while Sophie possessed a fair shade of crimson hue that made her look even more charming.

Davis saw their expressions and smirked. He took two steps back before he turned around.

"I just got an audience with the Silverwinds using my avatar. I'll go talk to them while you girls enjoy your tea time."

"The tea is already finished, though..." Isabella looked at the teapot on the table before she offered with a gentle smile, "Shall I make a new one before you leave?"

"No need, see you three later."

Davis left while the three of them waved him goodbye.

"He just came home from an adventure, but he is already back to work even though I wanted to make him feel comfortable..." Niera pouted, wanting to spend more time with him.

"Well, according to him, he already had three months of rest for our marriage." Isabella smiled as she shook her head, recalling that even during that time they spent together, he was cultivating other than their dual cultivation.

"I think we should not be a burden and disturb him."

"Oops~ It was the opposite of what I was thinking..."

Sophie wryly said while Niera covered her mouth before the three of them looked at each other.

"Pfft~ Ahaha!"

They broke into laughter that sounded musical, finding themselves at a focal point of wanting to please him with their own methods.

======

Mival Silverwind, Zanna Silverwind and Alia Silverwind.

The viridian-haired man and woman stood side by side along with the black-haired woman, with the man being at the center. They exuded a powerful aura, but it was no longer even a bit of pressure for Davis.

He was actually stronger than all three of them!

Nevertheless, the three of them were here to welcome him, letting him know the amount of importance they placed on him. It made Davis inwardly nod in satisfaction as well as feel more than welcomed.

"Haha! Davis, what brings you here? I thought you would be in seclusion after undergoing that kind of heavenly tribulation."

"Well, the seclusion ended, and I've become much stronger."

Davis smiled while Mival Silverwind flicked his sleeves.

"Good! That's what I expected from you! You had honestly exceeded my expectations when you managed to overcome that heavenly tribulation. However, being the greedy gambler I am, I expect mor- Ow!"

Alia Silverwind pinched her husband by the side before she smiled at Davis.

"No need to worry. Just take your time, Davis."

Davis chuckled before he shook his head.

"Mival Silverwind, I have come to ask if you know how to set up and produce defensive formations at the High-Level of Ninth Stage."

"If it were inscriptions, I might know a thing or two, but for formations, much less defensive formations..."

Mival Silverwind shook his head while Davis inwardly sighed, thinking that he had to hire some other expert to erect the defensive formations. However, looking at Mival Silverwind pointing at Alia with a blatant smile on his face, Davis blinked.

"She knows?"

"You thought she was some decoration whom I just kept by my side?" Mival Silverwind appeared proud, "Zanna and I focus on offense while she focuses on the defense. Because she could not reach our level so easily in the past, she opted to study defensive formations wherever we went and took advantage of studying the numerous defensive formations erected in many powers. She kept us safe more times than we could think of, little Davis..."

"It's not so exaggerated..." Alia commented with a wry expression on her face.

"Be more proud, big sister!" Zanna patted Alia's back as she grinned, "After all, you even know how to set up a few small defensive formations at the Peak-Level Emperor Grade when you haven't even entered the Law Rune Stage yet."

"Zanna, entering the Law Rune Stage isn't necessarily required to set up formations at the Ninth Stage. Furthermore, those formations are considered to have the lowest defensive prowess among the Peak-Level Emperor Grade. Please, I only know how to and haven't even set up one, not once..."

"Aha! That's because we don't have the adequate wealth to buy such formations. Still, you are number one in formations as far as I know that no one in the Nine Western Territories would dare to claim that they're first if you claim that you're second in setting up defensive formations!" Zanna Silverwind laughed, her s.e.xy voice echoing in the hall while Alia Silverwind appeared bashful.

On the other hand, Davis slightly opened his mouth agape, looking at Alia Silverwind in a new light. The next moment, he smirked.

'Guess I don't have to look outside for a formation expert...'
