Divine Emperor of Death
Chapter 735 Save Me...
From the descriptions on the containers, it became obvious that these two Spirit Attribute Sources were from the Alstreim Family.
"With Isabella's performance and my hoodwinking skill..." Davis winked at his mother and laughed as he didn't explain.
His laughed left a patch of mystery in his parent's heart as to how he could accomplish this without even battling and dominating the Alstreim Family yet.
'If he really battled, wouldn't he take over the Alstreim Family then?' Claire and Logan speechlessly mused.
"I didn't do anything..." Princess Isabella felt compelled to tell the truth as she felt embarrassed. She wasn't the one who made this happen. She did nothing and just let Davis borrow her fake image. That was it, and other things came from Davis's 'hard' work.
One day, she felt that she should really present them with proper gifts.
"You really are right, Davis... Look at how she is acting humble- Oof!" Logan, who expressed his views, was hit by Claire in the stomach.
Claire forced a smile, "Thank you, Princess Isabella... I'm deeply grateful and heartened by having you in our family..."
Princess Isabella blinked and, for once, genuinely smiled, "Thank you..."
Davis felt bliss as there was finally a load off his mind. He uttered, "Mother, Isabella would help you absorb the High-Level King Grade Fire Essence while I would help father absorb the High-Level King Grade Lightning Elemental... I think you two have no issues with this arrangement, right?"
"I do not..." Claire and Logan both echoed.
"Great! That's settled then..." Davis rubbed his hand in glee and was about to ask 'when?' when Claire suddenly interrupted.
"Davis, I'm about to comprehend Level Four Intent of Fire Laws, so I think it will be better if I could be aided after that..." Claire embarrassedly asked as she shot a glance at Princess Isabella.
Princess Isabella nodded her head, "I can wait..."
Claire heaved a sigh and moved her lips, "Thank you!"
Davis chuckled and looked at Logan, "What about you, father?"
"I can't wait!" Logan clenched his fists in glee.
Finally! He felt that it was time he became powerful again. A Lightning Elemental of this caliber would definitely help him comprehend till Level Six Intent of Lightning Laws in a few short years!
Davis laughed and displayed his fist to his father, "Then let's get started right now!"
Logan connected his fist with his son as his eyes flashed with a hint of lightning arcs!
=======
A week passed.
In the Sunset Tear Mountain, at the edge of a mountain peak stood a ten-meter tall lone wolf! The wolf looked in the east, and its yellow eyes glazed as it was thinking of something; a person.
The breeze flowed around the mountain peak as the wind hit its body, making its dark and reddish-brown fur freely wave in the air.
"This is the eighty-fourth day... I guess that human has really abandoned me..." A female voice echoed from the wolf before it inclined its head and looked at the bright-lit full moon.
"Awooo!~"
She howled at the moon as if asking if this really were her fate! She couldn't help but feel exceptionally disappointed and helpless today.
But at the same time, she caught sight of a silhouette covering a part of the moon. She narrowed her eyes and felt that it was someone in human form.
She initially thought it was a Magical Beast Bird transformed into a human but then realized that the black figure had no such aura.
Just when she bared her razor-sharp teeth and became hostile, thinking that she was going to be attacked, she thought of hiding in the shadows and avoiding the battle as she wasn't in the mood.
However, a familiar voice echoed the made her expression change in glee!
"To think that you have reached High-Level Lord Beast Stage, Nadia..."
Nadia's long dark tail instantly started to wag in happiness as her yellow eyes widened. She let out a howl again, except this time, it resounded her longing.
*Awwooo!!~~~~~*
Davis neared her as he flew from above and stood in front of her. He was just like an ant in front of her ten-meter tall body. If she were to use hind legs to stand, then she'll appear even taller.
But despite the size difference, it was Nadia who felt smaller and weaker in front of the ant-like human. She lowered her muzzle meekly and felt his small yet strong hand touch her forehead.
"How have you been? Have you managed to locate the Twin-Tailed Dusk Wolf Clan in the moonlight mountain?"
Nadia's expression instantly fell. She opened and narrowed her eyes and let out a deep sigh before a dark glow illuminated her body. When the dark glow disappeared, she reappeared in her human form.
A pair of yellow eyes, a sharp nose, and crimson lips that came off as wild. She was draped in brownish-black robes, the one she first transformed into when berated by Evelynn for wearing skimpy clothes.
"What happened?"
Noticing her complex expression in her human form more stimulating, Davis asked.
Nadia bit her lips before she spoke.
"I did go and find out the Twin-Tailed Dusk Wolf Clan. In the Moonlight Mountain, the Twin-Tailed Dusk Wolves are the territorial owners, but that's because there's an alpha ruling the pack with incredible solidarity."
"His words are the law..."
Davis narrowed his eyes in response.
"So, are you not willing to become my Magical Beast Mount?"
Nadia became taken aback for a moment before she knitted her eyes in determination.
"Master, save me..."
Davis, who had his brows furrowed, became taken aback by her addressing before relaxing. His lips curved into a grin, "Leave it to me..."
======
Right above the Sunset Mountain Wolf Clan.
Amidst the moonlight, two silhouettes stood as they floated in the air.
A male and a female. They looked at the empty valley below, unoccupied by the local inhabitants.
Davis kept on listening to Nadia's narration before he nodded his head as he understood the gist of her story.
In summary, it seems that after they left, Nadia shortly left her Clan and searched for the Twin-Tailed Dusk Wolf Clan in the Moonlight Mountain.
Since she was able to hide and travel in the wilderness without encountering higher stage magical beasts, she was able to find the Twin-Tailed Dusk Wolf Clan in a few days.
Initially, she was unwelcome as she was an outsider, but seeing that she was a female, it seemed that they allowed her in on the condition that she becomes a mate.
The border chief's mate but nonetheless...
Nadia declined as she had higher aspirations than getting stuck as a Twin-Tailed Dusk Wolf, however, that garnered aggression as the border chief personally tried to tame her.
In other words, the border chief tried to violate Nadia and make her his mate forcefully.
Nadia and the border chief of the Twin-Tailed Dusk Wolf Clan were both equal in strength, hence with many injuries, she came out on top in the end, but that just garnered even more aggression from the Twin-Tailed Dusk Wolf Clan as they sent numerous magical beasts to hunt her down.
She ran away and hid in the shadows at the first sign of aggression as she was extremely cautious after being injured; hence, she was able to lose their trail and sneak in some cave.
After that, a few days passed.
During this time, she didn't return to her Clan as she felt that she would be endangering her Clan's safety. Instead, she hunted down other and lone Lord Beast Stage Magical Beasts and tried to improve her cultivation.
There was still some of the essences of the Eighth Stage Expert remaining in her body, so she felt that with a few Magical Beasts she hunted, she would be able to experience a breakthrough.
Like this, a few months passed by as she tried to hunt without being detected by the Twin-Tailed Dusk Wolf Clan.
With the Doppelganger Species Technique, they always manage to catch up to her trail, and even after months passed, there seemed to be no sign of giving up on chasing her.
However, the moment Nadia finally broke through, letting out High-Level Lord Beast Stage undulations, it was also the day she got surrounded by a pack of Twin-Tailed Dusk Wolves.
However, realizing that each and one of them were just Low-Level and Mid-Level Lord Beast Stage Magical Beasts, she counterattacked and managed to defeat all of them! She didn't kill them as she wanted to avoid lethal aggression!
