Divine Emperor of Death Chapter 1265: Awaited Return

"... Is my daughter well?"Hearing Nero Alstreim's words, Ancestor Dian Alstreim blinked before he simply looked at Davis, "As far as I know, she is alive. For better information, you might want to ask this person."Nero Alstreim turned to look at Davis, feeling complicated. To be provided that kind of an answer, even the Ancestor was helpless? What kind of authority did Davis hold in the Alstreim Family at his young age? He couldn't still wrap his finger around it, reeling in disbelief and wonder."I assure you that your daughter's health remains well." Davis spoke with a smile, "I know that you feel eager to meet your daughter and know whether if the things I told you are the truth or not, but I'll advise you to wait for a while."Nero Alstreim pursed his lips but knowing what situation he was in, he bitterly nodded his head, enduring himself. He could leave by himself after coming this far, but he felt that it wasn't appropriate or possible since he thought that Davis wouldn't let him act alone.Davis turned to look at the Silverwinds', a lazy expression appearing on his face, "I'll try to sit this one out other than making some clarifications.""The Alstreim Family wants protection with the help of Silverwinds', and the Silverwinds' wants a place to stay that would make them feel comfortable, treated with respect and dignity. It is simple as that, but I know you five have many intricacies to discuss."Davis looked around, thinking if he could sit on a shade or on a branch to rest, but high tides of the sea decimated the entire area. He simply shrugged and sat down, looking at the skies as he lay down on the plains.Everyone's eyes twitched on looking at his actions. No matter how unofficial this meeting maybe, this kind of action was a direct slap to their faces but comprehending that he was still a youth who liked to be arrogant, they didn't bicker with him. Besides, his King-Tier Magical Beast was still beside him, looking at them with her golden eyes in a sharp manner."Mival Silverwind, you are much older than me that I have only heard about you in myths and tales." Ancestor Dian Alstreim rubbed his chin with an interesting expression on his face as he saw the man with fox ears."Nevertheless, before we begin, I would like to say that I already investigated you by purchasing information from the All-Seeing Towers, and it seems like you have offended a few powers like ours in the Glorious Pill Palace Territory and the Magical Beast Sanctuary Territory in the east.""What about it?" Mival Silverwind smilingly raised his brows, seemingly not denying it."I'd like to say that I don't care, but I'd like to know the specifics before I get into the main matter. After all, all powers like to twist the events to justify their own point of view."Mival Silverwind couldn't help but chuckle, "You're right about that. I offended the Glorious Pill Palace's subordinate power, Cyan Mountain Palace, when I refused to hand over my Zanna's blood essence to make a certain pill.""At the Magical Beast Sanctuary, a few Magical Beast Clans wanted to eat Alia, and we couldn't simply let that happen, so Zanna and I killed half of them, offending the clans behind them. We escaped to another Territory, and then we came here after a decade."A wry smile appeared on his face."These were just the recent events that had plagued us, and there are even more in the past."

"That's a lot of... offending..." Ancestor Dian Alstreim kept his smile.Mival Silverwind shrugged, "In any case, it was not my idea to become your family's protectors. If you ask me, I want to become this brat's protector as I see the immense potential within him."Davis, who was chilling in the sunlight, couldn't help but have his lips curve into a smirk. However, he didn't say anything."The main reason I need you two Ninth Stage Powerhouse is also because of this brat other than protecting the family. I need someone readily available to protect him from assassins and other kinds of harm, so we could say that our goals match." Ancestor Dian Alstreim smiled as he looked towards Ancestor Tirea Snow.She opened her mouth, "Dian and I have accepted to give you five percent of the Alstreim Family and Falling Snow Sect's annual revenue for every year.""That is... five percent each...?" Mival Silverwind widened his brows, "Ten percent from two powers in total? A handsome amount of wealth! Are you two sure that you two are not duping me instead?"He was provided just a single or two percentage when he entered the other powers since they already had their main powerhouses looking after their powers.But he instantly reconsidered. Because of Falling Snow Sect, the wealth that would be initially rewarded for his efforts became too much, making him deeply satisfied. Originally, the Falling Snow Sect didn't need to give so, and he would just be satisfied with five percent of the Alstreim Family's five percent of annual revenue, but he could now see what Davis said about them becoming husband and wife could be true.Otherwise, he couldn't see these two powers, especially the reclusive Falling Snow Sect, willing to give him money for protecting the Alstreim Family."No..." Ancestor Dian Alstreim and Ancestor Tirea Snow uttered to his disbelief at the same time.Mival Silverwind considered for a moment before he looked at Zanna and Alia. Looking at them both nod their heads, he returned the nod and looked back at them."The three of us accept this proposition of yours together. However, only Zanna and I will defend the Alstreim Family from whatever harm it may face. As for Alia, she is weaker than us, so she is free of whatever terms you may have for us."Ancestor Tirea Snow nodded her head, not expecting help from an Eighth Stage Expert since they had plenty themselves."Hopefully, we aren't making a mistake in recruiting you three to be the Alstreim Family's Protectors." Ancestor Tirea Snow turned to look at Davis with an imperceptible smile on her face, "After all, he dared to say that this is an extremely worthwhile alliance.""..."They all looked at his resting silhouette again, their eyes twitching unreasonably.Did they even need to talk in the first place? It was just like they had to meet and agree on some premade terms that are suitable for both of them. It was as if he had already built the foundation for them to smoothly finish the alliance talks.Mival Silverwind didn't understand how he could've done this in a short period of time after coming out of the Lightning Sea. Nero Alstreim muttered something about how he wasn't able to contact the family after being trapped inside it, so he remained skeptical. Nevertheless, it wasn't just much of an important fact that rattled or bothered him. Follow current on novel-online.com

He was just simply curious about the person he had gambled his short-term future on and remained excited to see what kind of character he would become in the future. From just the look of it, Davis seemed to be filled with immense confidence by himself.He didn't know if it was because of the King-Tier Magical Beast or himself.After this, they took a few minutes to formally introduce themselves, spoke about the likelihood that the Alstreim Family might face adversaries in the short future and a few other things that needed to be said beforehand, such as the payment would be given in Peak-Level Spirit Stones and if other similar level resources if need be.Finally, they signed a Blood Soul Contract with the souls of the four of them, not including Davis and Alia's souls. Obviously, Blood Soul Contracts worked on magical beasts as well.Nevertheless, the talk was nearing its end!"... As for your living space, I will assign you three the Emerald Crystal Guest Palace that is near to the Purple Guest Palace, which Davis and his family live in. It may not be as big and grand as the Purple Guest Palace, but it would not lose to any other readily available palaces.""Sure, we can live with that..." Mival Silverwind laughed while Ancestor Dian Alstreim smiled, thinking it was more than enough.Ancestor Dian Alstreim still could not believe how easy the negotiation went. Was talking to Ninth Stage Powerhouses this easy? All he knew was a few stuck-up bastards who raised their heads to the skies, unwilling to compromise on anything.At first, to make the Silverwinds deeply attracted by the offer, he thought of giving ten percent of annual revenue from the Alstreim Family's pockets when Davis spoke with them about this matter, but Tirea remained adamant on giving five percent by herself. Other than feeling incredibly moved by her actions, making him feel like he could do anything for her, he felt a bit of pity for the Falling Snow Sect.After all, it was the same as having a puppet installed in another power of similar stature, but he inwardly decided that he wouldn't do anything that might make her lower her head in shame. He couldn't let his wife be ashamed of herself as he knew that she was a righteous person.At this moment, Davis stood up, stretching his body as he groaned before patting his robes, "Now then, since the alliance is established, let's return home!""Alright..." Ancestor Dian Alstreim and Ancestor Tirea Snow nodded their heads while Nero Alstreim began to look excited."Home..." Mival Silverwind had an amused expression as he repeated.Would it really be their new home or the same bull all over again?He remained skeptical as he began to fly along with the others.Davis mounted Nadia while the remaining others stepped on their two flying boats as they left towards the Grand Alstreim City.In a short hour, they returned to the Grand Alstreim City.Nero Alstreim's heart couldn't help but palpitate as he saw the familiar scenery and buildings, but Davis also felt the same for an entirely different reason. He took a fresh air of breath as his lips moved. Follow current on storynovel.net

"Ancestor, I'll let you take care of the guests."Ancestor Dian Alstreim became shocked as he shot a look at Davis. For what did this brat suddenly become respectful to him?Davis didn't see his reaction and instead looked at Nero Alstreim, "Come with me..."After saying it, he didn't bother to stay and shot ahead with Nadia. Nero Alstreim hurriedly began to follow him without a word exchanged."Looks like they have loved ones whom they couldn't wait to see..." Alia Silverwind gently smiled, seemingly looking joyful.Mival Silverwind looked at her and shook his head, never seeing her be this joyous for a stranger. Looks like she wished the best for the person who managed to extend her life.=======Davis and Nadia soon arrived at the Purple Guest Palace along with Nero Alstreim, shortly catching up to them."You wait here for a second...""Huh? What...?" Nero Alstreim became flabbergasted before he saw Davis and Nadia disappear right in front of his eyes. He couldn't help but shout."Wait!"Simultaneously, Davis stood before him, having a mixed expression on his face, "This way..."Nero Alstreim blinked, feeling something different about Davis. He didn't have the hastiness that Davis had just a while ago, making him think that it could be someone else, but he didn't ponder much as he wanted to see his daughter soon."Quick, take me to her..."Davis nodded and began walking in the hallway while being followed by the nervous Nero Alstreim.At the same time, in another place, Davis and Nadia appeared before a wide door that seemed to be closed. At this point, Davis's heart was stuck in his throat, making him feel his heartbeat echo like an array of loud explosions on his head.Looking at Davis, Nadia smiled as she simply disappeared from beside him and at the same moment, the door opened while a lovely, voluptuous purple-robed figure stood there stunned at the sight of him even though she knew that he would be just behind the door with the soul mark."Evelynn..."Evelynn's eyes turned moist at the mention of her name that was filled with longing. Her rosy lips quivered as it opened."Husband~~~"She quickly moved to embrace him, but Davis did the same with even more force as he lifted her up in his embrace and deeply kissed her in the hallway. Evelynn didn't even miss a beat as she lovingly held his cheeks and smacked her lips with his with even more passion!As they kissed, his legs began to move forward while he took Evelynn inside the room as he savored her cherry lips, heading towards the bed while the door behind them closed by itself, sealing the world shut from them.
