Divine Emperor of Death Chapter 101

Chapter 101
Two months passed while the Loret Empire's ship sailed through the Grand Sea .
News spread around the continent about the victor of the Grand Sea Continent Meet as soon as it ended .
Davis's name spread wide and far, granting him endless prestige around the continent . The young prodigy's name shook people's heart, they placed him on a pedestal and started calling him 'The Little Paragon' .
But what the people paid attention to was not about his victory, but his slaughter of Emperor Tritor and Emperor Raven .
This brought happiness to the continent as these two vile evildoers were dead, but that surely wasn't the case for the Raven Empire and Tritor Empire .
The Tritor Empire and the Raven Empire was in turmoil for these two months after the news of the death of their respective emperors spread like wildfire .
The Nobles and the Royals were at each others throat, disrupting the harmony in these two empires . Not only that, but there was a rumour spreading around that after a year, the invading empires will come to conquer them which made them lead a fearful life .
All in all, the masses' lives in these two empires were ruined and bleak .
Meanwhile, the Guardian Alliance unanimously decided to split the treasury and the territory of these two empires once the fifteen year period ends .
The Raven Empire and Tritor Empire have no choice but to scatter as they couldn't defend against the onslaught of the five empires . If they stayed and battled, then they could only wait for death .
There was always a shortage of powerful experts in all the empires as every outsider invasion takes the lives of many experts, regardless of status .
During the invasion, some died outright, while some others died slowly due to heavy injuries caused in the battlefield . Due to this, all the empires only have a few powerful experts to defend themselves from the nearby external threats .
. . .
After arriving at the capital, Davis rode the carriage with his father and Ellia as they received the praises, applause and approval of the residents .
He was warmly welcomed by the people of the capital, so much that even Davis started to feel a sense of belonging to this capital .
They straight away went to the Royal Castle and were greeted by the subjects and vassals .
Logan nodded his head and headed to the throne while Davis headed straight away to his study . Logan shook his head when he saw Davis going away without even asking him .
Before going to the study, Davis made a servant prepare a residence in the Royal Castle for Ellia . He also specifically asked his father to revoke Ellia's status as a maid and grant her the title of nobility .
In regards to this, Logan accepted all that without asking any questions . To him, this was child's play, besides the position Ellia obtained in the Grand Sea Continent Meet was enough for him to grant her endless riches and a respectable status .
Davis finally arrived in his study and threw himself on the bed,
"Ahhh, I'm back!" He grabbed the pillow and rubbed his face on it .
He rested on it for a few moments before turning his head above and sat on the bed .
"It's been two months since I killed those two emperors . " He muttered under his breath as he checked his soul for the nth time .
Inside the Soul Sea, he could see the dark book like figure, hovering in a fixed state . Around it, there were two small hazy balls of lights that were swirling around . It was like they were orbiting around the dark book in a harmonious manner .
'The two souls I absorbed from the two emperors still hasn't dissipated the slightest . I wonder if it is the effect of the Death Note that is in my soul? Hmm . . . I wonder if this could be even called the death note in the first place?' Davis had a lot of questions that he wanted to find the answer for, so he could only research about it one by one .
He hadn't found the slightest sign of dissipation from these two Mid-Level Adult Soul Stage Souls all this time . To him, this was a matter of wonder, because no souls could be protected from time itself .
'At the least, it would have dissipated slightly even if I used a method to preserve it normally . This death note of mine is truly a treasure . ' He sighed in awe .
He waited all this time to absorb it once he is alone, but not only that because he wanted to see how long the death note can safeguard the souls he absorbed .
'Its time I refined the souls to make a breakthrough . ' Davis's eyes shone in anticipation as he was sure that these two souls would be able to take him to the peak of Young Soul Stage .
'Possibly, even the Adult Soul Stage . . . ' He thought as he gulped in excitement .
He was excited for a while before calming down his mental state as he closed his eyes . He meditated for some time before finally opening his eyes, radiating a calm disposition .
In his Soul Sea, a dark radiance emitted from the dark book as it surrounded a deceased soul that was orbiting around it .
The hazy ball of light was surrounded by that dark radiance as it started to get refined in a non-violent manner .
Davis felt his soul growing in power as time passed by slowly . His soul level increased rapidly as he felt a searing pain in his soul .
He broke through to the High-Level Young Soul Stage .
Suddenly, it felt like he could explode anytime as he felt stuffed from the increase in his soul energy . He gritted his teeth and continued to refine .
Time passed as he later broke through to Peak-Level Young Soul Stage . The deceased soul he was absorbing was almost gone .
It wasn't long before he completed absorbing the soul .
Davis opened his eyes and let out a slight breath . His body was full of sweat from the earlier pain . He now knew that two days had passed since the start of his cultivation .
'Seems like the pain will only increase while I improve my soul power forcefully by a large amount in the latter stages . ' He sighed . His soul was originally powerful that it could ignore the pain when he forcefully increased his Soul Cultivation in the earlier stages, but now it couldn't sustain the increase in his soul energy anymore .
In addition, he was marvelled at the fact that he was able to discern the present as soon as he finished cultivating, but wasn't able to tell the passage of time during cultivation .
"Looks like I would have to cultivate my soul slowly," Davis muttered sadly . If someone heard his speech, then they would've coughed out litres of blood and strangled him to death .
