Divine Emperor of Death Chapter 492: Misdirection

"Unfortunately, all those who are in my carriage are people whom I know personally know of and they are all individuals you can't hope to offend."At the time Davis casually spoke, from the window of the carriage, a woman slightly glanced out, her mask made it difficult to see her who it was but her rosy lips and gorgeous almond eyes got the attention of the guards, stunning them at the mesmerizing sight of beauty.Simultaneously, the woman let out Law Manifestation Stage undulations which churned their stomachs, chilled their spines and curbed their curiosity as well as their purpose to inspect.Suddenly, the guards all looked away, like they weren't going to bother with this entourage anymore. Their eyes were concentrating on the people queued behind them.They all went towards the front before the guard with the green helmet revealed a look of confusion before he spoke, "Esteemed Alchemist Scythe can enter the city without any problems."Following that, without any paperwork of their entry or inspection, Davis and the others entered the city while riding in the two carriages.The familiar sight of a city filled Davis' sight, making him heave a nostalgic sigh, making him want to explore this region while lingering with the persona of Alchemist Scythe.He shook his head, and the two carriages rode towards his small-sized residence which he previously bought with the direction of Natalya.The guard who wore the green helmet revealed a look of confusion again before he looked back, "Who was that again?""... Alchemist Scythe?" He muttered and rubbed his chin before he shook his head."How are we lucky again?" From inside the carriage, Evelynn suddenly spoke with visible confusion etched on her face."This series of events that indicates us of not being caught can be considered very lucky. I think the heavens are with us." Claire slightly giggled. Follow current on novelenglish.net

"Good acting, mother!" Davis echoed from the driver section."Haha, you gave the cue for me to strut my prowess at the right timing, making me look like a person with important background. Although we could be considered lucky, it can also be said to be done due to your efforts." Claire didn't forget to compliment her son.Davis only smiled. He didn't bother to speak anymore.On their way, they crossed many cities and had many encounters with the Tripartite Alliance members but none of them alerted the latter of their whereabouts.Because Davis had realized that he could influence the thoughts of a person! Albeit vaguely... And as long as they aren't completely aware! That's why Davis had to put up all that act, so the guards wouldn't realize that they're being indirectly influenced by some mysterious power.Their act became a successful diversion that garnered the attention of the guards and he used Fallen Heavns's karmic prowess to influence their actions through their thoughts.When he was in possession of the Fallen Heaven before, he could indeed control people but they would end up dying at the appointed time or at the end of their lifespan as he would markdown, but now, it became no longer the case.Now, even without having to kill them, he had verified that he could influence their actions to a certain degree. This way, he could even influence the actions of innocent people without having to kill them!This thought to influence their actions came to him when he decided to test the karmic applications of the karmic thread of a random person who had found their group through suspicion and doubt.He had already done this to many people, directing away their attention without their realization. For example, when they were about to be noticed by an innocent receptionist who had probably seen the wanted posters, Davis used Fallen Heaven's karmic prowess to place her attention to someone else, removing her eyes from their entourage.Like this, he had directed the attention away from them on many people.

Davis didn't want to needlessly control people through killing. Even though he can make them die at the end of their lifespan, it remained that he was the one who killed them instead of them dying as their fates preordained.In short, he didn't want their blood on his hands since Karmic Laws existed. There was no saying how Karmic Laws would strike back at him when he becomes stronger in the future.Although he could not say how bad his Karma was since he could not see through it, he felt that he had incurred a tremendous amount of bad karma because he had killed millions of people in the Grand Sea Continent.He felt this vague sense of danger from the dark speck of light in the skies, but it became pretty normal to him. However, the more he practiced Karma Laws, the more he felt that something was substantially wrong with him.'I have to increase my level in Karmic Laws...' Davis increasingly felt the need to increase his strength. However, he would have to increase his Soul Forging Cultivation then and before that, he would have to look for a place to stay in the Alstreim Family Territory.And all this required for him to be patient for some time!Furthermore, it wasn't like the people in his group were all naive.Although the others in the group were unaware of his actions, thinking that they had lucked out, some of them also had some suspicions about this matter, like Evelynn, Logan, and Daniuis.They expressed opinions that they were being lured to an even more fortified place, making them unable to escape. Only when Davis said that it wasn't the case after acting like he had used his Soul Sense did they believe that it was luck playing a part in their covert escape all this while.While they were discussing exciting adventures like this, Davis had the urge to name this power of influencing people, Misdirection.Taking inspiration from a basketball animation he saw while living alone as a mortal, he felt that this power of his was better suited to this name.'Misdirection...'

'Directing the gaze of people away from oneself to others...'Davis shook his head in nostalgia again.'Except my technique can influence a person to a large extent... making them believe that something had garnered their attention...'Soon, they arrived at their destination.Davis alighted from the carriage and looked at the familiar residence which he had stayed for more than a year. He also remembered the woman who assisted him faithfully without betraying his expectations.'Natalya...'He wondered how she was right now.'Did she get married or is she still cultivating?' Davis chuckled and entered the residence with the others.The familiar outer courtyard came into his sight but it was adorned with some decorations, making him confused.Although there were decorations, the outline and the surface of the decorations were already filled with dust, making him understand that the decorations were put up a long time ago without being taken down.He became pleasantly surprised. When he had left before, he had left the small-sized residence in Natalya's care after leaving for the Magical Beasts Territory ruled by the Tyrannical Blue Apes.He didn't have a chance to come back to see Natalya because of Princess Isabella's urgency and skepticism.Nevertheless, Natalya had informed him that she would leave for the city which her little sister had mentioned before, so he didn't much hope of meeting her even if he came back from the Magical Beast Territory at that time.However, it looks like Natalya had decorated the entire residence before she left with her little sister.To this thoughtful action of hers, Davis can only ruefully smile.
