Chapter 2005: Paused Interrogation

Myria's soul shook as she stiffly moved her head before it slowly came to a stop. 

She couldn't believe that Davis possessed the Eternal Life Soul Physique for many reasons. For one, it was a completely one-of-a-kind unique physique, meaning that only one could exist at a time.

This meant that the previous host of Eternal Life Soul Physique had died.

Secondly…

"Haha… it can't be… you don't have it…"

Myria didn't even consider it and laughingly shook her head as though she found it nonsensical before her gaze finally became calm.

"Is it fun talking to yourself? Why don't you explain?"

Davis hoarsely spoke as he fumbled on the ground, still looking pale.

"I don't know how you're capable of using Life and Death Laws at the same time as they are direct opposites, even more than fire and ice. However, I'll know once I defeat and capture you."

As Myria finished, the warmth in her eyes left, replaced with a hostile glint filled with suspicion.

Davis noticed the slight change in the way she looked at him. It was prickly as though trying to look through his secrets.

"What's wrong?" Davis sneered visibly, "Aren't you going to capture me as you said? This is the best chance that you're ever going to get!"

However, Myria's reply was indifference. She stayed in the air, unmoving.

The mocking expression on Davis's face faded, replaced with the same ice-cold stare she was giving him.

The moment he revealed his Life Laws, her expression changed as though she took it personally. To this reaction, Davis could only think of one possible outcome that Myria could've arrived at.

Nonetheless, Davis remained wary of her possible sneak attack.

Honestly, Davis didn't think of moving to spatial teleportation formation as taking advantage of the handicap she gave. After all, the exhaustion he experienced from the twenty-five percent of blood and soul essence sacrifice was nothing compared to what he experienced before. It wouldn't be an exaggeration to say that he possessed a kind of innate resistance to burning soul essence up to thirty-five or forty percent, not to mention he stayed up without fainting when he sliced off thirty percent of soul essence to create a Solitary Soul Avatar.

As for why he behaved suicidal, he wanted to know the limits of his strength, and it certainly arrived at three levels above Peak-Level Ninth Stage, making him understand that if he were to use his Emperor Sigil, his prowess would experience a slight increase. However, since using Emperor Sigil causes it to enter cooldown for a period of time after using it, he could only use it once, so he didn't.

At this moment, he feigned weakness, wanting to know if Myria would go back on her words and attack him, but even after receiving a shock and changing her gaze towards him, she refused to touch a single hair on his head waiting for him to recuperate.

This action showed him that she was either still confident in overpowering him or disdained to attack him while he was weak, choosing to honor her words. Perhaps, it was both.

"Myria, what's going on? How could Prince Davis use both Life Laws and Death Laws…?"

In Myria's soul sea, Ellia couldn't help but finally ask.

"I don't know, Ellia." Myria solemnly replied, "That's what I'm trying to see through. However, there's a layer of mysteriousness to him. First, we must find out if his master really exists or not. Otherwise, I can only speculate that Chu Feng took over Davis's soul. With Davis being able to use life energy, it should be possible for Chu Feng to use death energy as long as the assimilation is-."

"No, Davis is Davis!"

Ellia's soul trembled, causing a deep wave of discomfort in Myria. However, she didn't say anything about that and comforted Ellia.

It took her a while to finally make Ellia calm and sensing her depressed state, Myria secretly sighed.

Since Ellia possessed most of her knowledge, Ellia should be able to make some predictions too, which left Ellia feeling depressed even if she wanted to deny it. Myria felt that she could only relieve this by investigating Davis, but for that, she had to capture him.

However, she couldn't help but try her luck.

"Are you a reincarnator?"

Davis raised his brows as he heard Myria's interrogative tone. She finally caught onto him?

However, Davis didn't answer, neither shaking his head nor nodding, just trying to stare into Myria's very soul through her shimmering eyes.

"Answer my question." Myria's voice was solemn, "I answered yours so many times, so it's time you returned the favor."

Davis momentarily blanked. She was actually trying to use favors now? He felt like he won that he couldn't help but nod.

"Yes."

Myria's gaze changed while Ellia's heart shook. What was he saying? 

Myria instantly couldn't help but probe for more information.

"Are you the true Davis?"

"Mhm, Davis was my next reincarnation, I guess…" Davis nonchalantly spoke while he didn't hold back. 

Since he let the cat out, there was no use hiding it anymore.

"When did you possess Davis's body?"

"Possess?" Davis chuckled, "I never truly died, so there wasn't a Davis to possess but only the body due to a mishap. If you meant when exactly I woke up in this body, it was when this body was three years old, five years earlier before I met Ellia. As you can see, I've achieved perfect assimilation with this body, and that's more than enough proof to declare that I'm a previous incarnation, just like you, Myria."

Myria blinked at his concise words and information as though he knew a few things about her. Could he be someone who knew who she was? Otherwise, how could he know that she and Ellia were the incarnations of the same soul?

Even Shirley shouldn't be aware of this fact as she only gave some vague truths about her identity.

'No, if he knew who I truly was, he would already know that he couldn't beat me no matter how hard he tried.' Myria inwardly shook her head.

Even then, she couldn't understand how he could use Death Laws and Life Laws at the same time.

"But… you can't have the Eternal Life Soul Physique…" She uttered with confusion.

"Did I say I have it?"

Davis shrugged, causing Myria's eyes to widen.

"It can't be… you artificially created a method to practice Death Laws and Life Laws? That would make you a terrifying genius even in my perspective, but your comprehension is low that I suspect that it isn't the case."

Davis's lips twitched. However, he caught the point.

"So having an Eternal Life Soul Physique means that one would be able to control Death Laws and Life Laws simultaneously?"

Myria hesitated before she nodded. The hostility in her eyes also had considerably lessened. As long as she was dealing with the Davis who protected Ellia, she was fine with him even killing the original Davis to obtain this body. After all, it was the current Davis who protected Ellia.

Now that she recalled the strange actions of Davis that allowed Ellia to get past the tribulation of her life, she understood why Davis was good to Ellia instead of lusting after her body like a little prince who was smitten with his personal maid would. His words totally made sense to her, and she was inclined to believe his story.

However, she wanted more information.

"Who were you in your previous life?"

"You won't believe me." Davis shook his head, looking mysterious.

Myria frowned, staying silent for a while before Ellia urged her like hell. Unable to take it, she spoke.

"Just say."

Davis chuckled at her insistence to know, "A mortal who hadn't even reached the First Stage…"

"A cripple…?"

"You…!" Davis clenched his fist before he unceremoniously waved it, "You can say that…"

Fallen Heaven had taken half his lifespan at that time, after all.

"You can't be serious." Myria's eyes heavily narrowed. There was no way Davis was just a mortal. Otherwise, how was he able to possess this body as he told? The reincarnation cycle experienced law suppression that caused it to operate erratically or something?

Ridiculous, was what she thought.

"I am serious." Davis smiled, "How about this? You let Ellia go, and I'll tell you more."

"Hmph!" Myria momentarily felt that he was lying, "You know you're going to lose, so you're unscrupulously trying to change the terms we agreed upon. So childish- no, it's the actions of a loser."

Davis shrugged. What more could he say after being framed as a loser? He continued recuperating, taking his time, preparing to end it not so fast nor so slow.

On the other hand, Myria narrowed her eyes. Why wasn't he acting childish and throwing a tantrum? Were his intentions to tease her to get her mad or portray himself as someone else? Feeling more suspicious, she casually asked.

"Should I call you Davis or Chu Feng?"
