Divine Emperor of Death Chapter 79: Being Vigilan

The island was almost 500 km long, and it was unquestionably a unique zone in the Grand Sea.Fog eternally perpetuated in this place, as the conflict between the two conflicting temperatures endlessly clashed from the time people found this island.The left end of the island had seabeds which were extended by the erupting volcano every decade. There were also hidden reefs and molten caves which were used as a hideout or as a home for the magical beasts.The right end of the island was covered in ice, and the land was frozen widely with small hills that looked like it was encased in ice magma.Davis walked hand in hand with Ellia to the left side of the island. It was perpetually hot in this place, and their field of vision was quite limited, but Davis had a unique soul which made him sense his surroundings with clarity, so he couldn't help but appreciate the beauty of this island.Furthermore, he also sensed a bizarre bug flying around him.'A monitoring bug?' He thought as he guessed. It was all over the island, but the bugs were quite small and almost invisible to the naked eyes, but he could sense them as he had a powerful soul which also made him sensitive to his surroundings.That said, he confidently walked together with her because he knew that he was not violating the rules of the second round.

The rules only said that the participants were not to hunt a magical beast together. But the rules never stated that the participants cannot travel together.This was a loophole which was realized by some of the smarter participants, which led them to also travel again with their previous team."I never thought that I would get to see the Firzen Island which had been stated in a certain book of the royal library." Davis nodded in appreciation. He could see unique plants and herbs which were growing on this island. Most of them were fire attributed herbs which were very useful in alchemy. He collected some herbs and tore those apart as if they were roadside weeds.These kind of herbs were quite ordinary to him, and he wanted to get a realistic feeling on the internal structure of the herbs.Ellia followed beside him and curiously looked at his serious expression that was on his face. She personally felt that it was cute.Then Ellia had a confused expression on her face just when she had realised something."Davis, aren't we supposed to be hunting for magical beasts? What are you doing there?""I'm just looking into the internal structure of the herbs so I can learn about it's working and essence when used in alchemy." Davis continued his research and didn't look at her."But... don't you think that something is wrong? We are already in the outer zone, but we haven't encountered any magical beasts! This is kinda weird..." Ellia said in worry as she believed that they should've encountered a magical beast by now. Follow current on novel-online.com

Davis suddenly froze as he looked at Ellia in horror while pointing behind her."Look... A Great Serpent!""!!!" Ellia felt alarmed, "Ahhh!" She then immediately screamed as ran behind Davis while cowering her head.Few moments passed by as nothing happened.Ellia then opened her eyes and looked at Davis, only to see him having a 'can't hold my laughter' expression on his face.Her face went red as she embarrassedly screamed, "Stop playing around! Don't scare me like that!""Calm down, Ellia. Honestly, you have a good sense and perception. Just relax and maintain your vigilance at the same time. I know that it is difficult, but this is something that you should master if you were to become a pro magical beast hunter."A magical beast hunter is just the name that the people have given to people, who mainly hunt beasts for their survival, it isn't an official occupation or anything.Ellia then discerned that she was stressed out the whole time, even though she acted calmly on the outside. This was a new experience for her, and as a maid, she had seen the scary carcasses of magical beasts which had made her not want to see them alive, walking around. Follow current on storynovel.net

Davis had his senses and perception heightened thanks to his soul cultivation, so he could maintain his vigilance without being stressed out."What you said has a point. But the concept you forgot was that we came to this island openly. We, the 100,000 people who are currently hostiles to the natives of this island. Do you think that those magical beasts will just get slaughtered by us? Even though they can't think or speak like us, they do have sharp instincts. So the magical beasts you were talking about must've run to the inner zone of this side."Suddenly, he grinned as he walked to a tree that looked charred."Except some brave magical beasts which are looking to have their own delicious victim!"A burst of light passed through the tree vertically, as the tree slowly split into two trunks that fell on each side.A brown snake slid off the tree as blood washed over the ground gradually. It was 3m in length, but its thickness was quite small. Its scales were brown as if they were burned, though it was not the case as it was a natural scale colour for it."A Charred Boa, a High-Level Earth Beast Stage Magical Beast," Davis mentioned its name calmly as he collected the core of the snake by cleaving up its head with the spear he used to kill it.He then smiled at her as he said, "I wasn't kidding around when I said that there was a great serpent..."Ellia who was flabbergasted by his method of teaching, nodded her head in appreciation and apology, "Sorry..."Davis smiled. "No need for that, I'm just trying to teach you the best I can..."Ellia stared at him blankly and wondered, 'Is this the difference between a royal and a commoner? I feel as though I can never reach that place...'No matter how she saw it, he was always ahead of her, even when they are of the same age. Though she thought that this was because of their difference in status, she didn't attribute to it and felt that wasn't the case.Suddenly, she discerned something and had a mocking smile on her face, 'How ugly am I? Without even realising it, I was taking advantage of his kindness to improve myself? Heh, it was too arrogant of me to even think of always staying by his side, much less berate him.'
