Divine Emperor of Death

Turning his head aside, Davis saw his mother still cry over the fact that she couldn't reunite with her father. He more or less felt guilty because of it since he was the one who had told her to not reunite.

Reuniting was definitely a valid option, but then he won't be able to control the pace, thrown into dangerous situations instead. This was not his cautiousness but he believed that there was a huge possibility to occur. He felt like he could see it happening, more like a premonition even though he really didn't.

However...

For his mother, he felt that he should try to save his little half-aunt too, otherwise, he felt that there would be more sadness and depression within the family which he was against.

'Well, I at least have more than five years of time to make a move. Before that, I must learn how to change a person's predestined fate to extend their lifespan...'

Davis mused in all seriousness.

However, he knew that his chances weren't bright. He still hadn't discovered how he or Fallen Heaven influenced the predestined fate of Glynn, making him die unwittingly.

If push comes down to shove, he can only try to use Fallen Heaven to extend Tia Alstreim's lifespan which to his knowledge, can't be done and won't work. He can only try by using Fallen Heaven in various ways he hadn't tried before...

'Still, what is that pupa structure that wrapped over Tia Alstreim? Does it signify something? Is she someone extremely special since only she seems to have that pupa?'

Davis thought hard again despite taking the decision to not think about it again but didn't find an answer. He almost completely gave up but then he suddenly chanced upon a certain fact that he failed to consider before.

Most of the people around him seemed to have something special about them...

At first, it was Clara, his little sister who possesses the Transcendent Truth Eyes. Then, it was Ellia, his personal maid and friend who seemed to host her previous incarnation within her soul.

Princess Isabella, who managed to clear the Emperor Grade Trial of the Earth Dragon Immortal which was rather extraordinary, considering that no one had managed to do so in the entire Ruth Empire's history.

Drake Blackburn, who possessed a unique Yang constitution, but was also a reincarnator from Earth.

And now, it seems that Tia Alstreim, who seemed rather unique, spawn around him. On the way, he had already confirmed that she was the only one who had that pupa made of millions of thread wrap around her, hence, he basically confirmed that she was unique in some way.

There seemed to be too many people who were special around him.

Davis found this fact to be rather uncommon but normal, yet disorienting.

'Is it because of Fallen Heaven's presence?'

Davis vaguely felt something but he couldn't grasp it. If Fallen Heaven weren't within him, then he even felt delusional that he could be the main character of some novel.

He wrinkled his nose in displeasure and looked at his mother who had already stopped crying. He went towards her and cheered her up.

"Perhaps your father would visit us soon since I gave him our location. Don't worry mother, just concentrate on your cultivation and improve, so that you could reunite with your father sooner!"

His advice seemed to rather have an effect as Claire seemed to happily nod her head with a wry smile.

In the Royal Palace of the Emperor of the Ethren Empire, Throne Hall.

Emperor Kaiser Ethren sat on his throne feeling heavily distressed. He knew that he was in deep shit, hence, he was considering how to avert this disaster.

In front of him were his three prodigal sons. He called then here to discuss this matter but so far, it seemed to be useless as they only seemed to provide plans that would end in eventually antagonizing the Alstreim Family in some way and to various degrees.

Even if he told them that the previous envoy had taken bribes, the responsibility would undoubtedly fall on them since they were the ones who tempted, seduced, and pulled the previous envoy to their side.

Crown Prince Hadre Ethren paced around, trying to think of a plan after the countless plan he had given was rejected.

Second Prince Keith Ethren had a solemn expression on his face. He gave up thinking anymore as all his plans were rather risky.

Nevertheless, he looked as if he were waiting for something.

Third Prince Alexi Ethren, who had been quiet all this time, suddenly opened his mouth.

"I have an idea..."

This caused his two brothers to be shocked. The Third Prince never involved himself in any matters, and now, he was doing so?

Emperor Kaiser Ethren smiled and asked, "What do you have in mind?"

Alexi Ethren blinked and said, "Just confess and compensate. If you do plead that you have done wrong and give incentives, perhaps, you'll gain forgiveness..."

"Get out!"

Emperor Kaiser Ethren coldly spoke. The two other princes inwardly sneered and somehow knew that something like this would happen.

Alexi Ethren chuckled and left the Throne Hall without even feeling embarrassed. His expression was like he achieved his goal of what he came here for...

Suddenly, before he could even exit, he saw a messenger run past him and whisper something to the Second Prince with Soul Transmission. However, he didn't even care and left with a bored expression on his face.

The Second Prince's eyes lit up when he heard the Soul Transmission from his subordinate.

"It seems that the ones from the flight of stairs in the second level had made contact with two of the members of the Alstreim Family seemed to be from the Conferred Queen's residence."

"Perhaps we can investigate this?" He suggested to the Emperor.

Emperor Kaiser Ethren considered for a moment before he shook his head, "What if we unwittingly offend another power? That's like being flanked on both sides."

"We'll be exterminated!"

Second Prince Keith Ethren inwardly sweated. He had already started to have Miss Isabella's background checked by using Third Prince's subordinate, hence, it could already be said that he was on the edge of a cliff.

But the one who going to take the brunt and fall is none other than his third brother since he had disguised as his third brother all the time when meeting with Agis Stirlander. Hence, he was only a little bit worried.

The discussion moved on but they never arrived at a better, and effective plan. In the end, they had to embarrassingly resort to what the Third Prince, Alexi Ethren had said.

With this, although this would result in an extreme loss of face, it will also make them take advantage in the long run.

In a while, this cost them a lot as they had to compensate over 10,000 Peak-Level Spirit Stones and a few other intimate favors.

Sunset Tear Mountain.

In the Far East Sunset Mountain Wolf Clan.

Nadia, the Twin-Tailed Dusk Wolf berated and commanded Chuno to look after the Crowned Violet-Winged Condor infants for a few days. She threatened him with the possibility of execution, so she didn't see why he would not possibly heed her commands.

Then she told the higher ranking clan members that she would be leaving for a period of time, hiding the matter of her becoming a 'Magical Beast Mount' and instead, explained that she was going to train her new powers.
