"She said that she would be able to forgive you three as long as we let her remain for a while on the Dark Thunder Island."
Davis smiled as he turned his head to look at Mival Silverwind.
"The Dark Thunder Island…" Mival Silverwind narrowed his brows before he nodded his head, "Works for me. It's… She's yours anyway. You decide what to do with her, but I prefer if you make her grudge dissolve."
"That settles it…" Davis nodded as well, reaching a conclusion to this difficult situation.
Perhaps, he was more than selfish in not giving Eldia her rightful revenge, but he could only act as a mediator if he was allied with both parties. Now that that one problem was resolved, he couldn't help but turn to look at Nero Alstreim.
"You've been rather awfully silent for a while… Mhm?"
"Just be silent for a while." Nero Alstreim rolled his eyes, "You and your actions are rather too enigmatic for me to understand…"
"Ahaha…" Davis couldn't help but laugh towards his answer, but he could understand, considering that his cultivation in accordance to his age was way overpowered, way outside the realm of common sense, even for the people belonging to the hegemons of small Territories and mid-sized Territories as far as he knew. It also seemed like his cautiousness had already dropped by a wide degree.
After this short conversation, it became silent again before they all finally left the distorted space in a few hours.
The sea breeze struck Nero Alstreim's face causing him to take a deep breath as if it was his lifeline. His eyes widened as deep emotions became apparent on his face.
Davis stopped glancing at him before he looked towards Eldia. He waved his hand, and a condensed form of soul force touched Eldia's spherical body, but instead of harming her, it simply sank and stuck to her Will.
"Master, this is…?" Eldia couldn't help but release a doubtful echo while she didn't even resist.
"I have placed a simple soul mark on you that will let me know where you are. Interact with it if you need me for anything, or if you erase it, I'll take it as you defecting from me. Stay safe, okay?"
"I understand, Master…"
Davis watched her leave as he felt complex emotions towards her.
He uttered with care as his thought process was quite simple. Since she was his, it was his responsibility to take care of her. The fact that she wanted to remain for a while in her home alone told him that she had feelings, and he had already confirmed that every spirit, regardless of being an armament spirit or Wills, all had emotions within them.
Besides, he also knew that Wills was capable of deceit as he saw from the Poison-Attributed Spirit Attributed Sources that Evelynn had absorbed. Nevertheless, he believed that Eldia wasn't such a Will who would deceive him because Lightning Elementals basically had a proud character. It was unlikely that they would go against their own words, and he believed that she would return to him naturally once he went to pick her up.
That said, during half the journey, he had given her plenty of his lightning that was filled with Blazing Thunderlight Kirin's Lightning to feed on, spending fifty percent of his soul sense to make sure that she remembered his taste. He felt that it would be good for their bond later on when they meet again.
Once Eldia left and gained a huge distance from them, becoming a dot in the skies, Davis uttered.
"Alright, let's go…"
Davis simply headed towards the direction where he sensed his Solitary Soul Avatar, and considering that Evelynn had his soul mark, she probably already knew that he was on his way, pretty excited, to say the least. He was also filled with expectation in his heart, feeling like he could no longer wait.
However, he glanced at the Silverwinds' before continuing the voyage.
Soon, they crossed many islands and even got out of the Hundred Devil Thunder Archipelago in a short hour with their terrific speed.
Nero Alstreim had his mouth slightly agape, looking at the sunlight that he did not see for decades. His eyes couldn't help but tear up above the massive ocean, making him look like a person who was stranded but had been suddenly rescued by some people one day.
His emotions were rather high over the peak. However, Mival Silverwind frowned. As far as he could tell, the direction in which Davis was taking them was not towards the Alstreim Family.
Well, it was towards the Alstreim Family, but not towards the Grand Alstreim City. It was the direction towards their outskirts. He couldn't help but narrow his eyes as he finally decided to question.
"This isn't the way to the Grand Alstreim City as far as I can remember. Where are you taking us?"
"You finally realized?" Davis smiled as he shot them a smirk.
Mival Silverwind raised his brows, finding it amusing, "Well then, where are you taking us then?"
"We're already there…"
Davis pointed his hand towards a deserted island that looked lush yet desolate, as if the high tide of the sea had toppled every tree and flora on it.
"Hmm?"
Mival Silverwind noticed that there were two figures on the empty plains of the island. A white-robed, blonde-haired man and a white-robed, white-haired woman looked as if they were waiting for them together. His eyes rapidly sharpened as he could see that they were none other than the Alstreim Family's Ancestor and the Falling Snow Sect's Ancestor.
He couldn't help but look at Davis, "Your Ancestor, I can understand, but why is there the Falling Snow Sect's Ancestor. Aren't we supposed to be secret protectors?"
Nevertheless, he still didn't know how Davis had managed to contact them. He didn't see any signs of him taking out a messaging talisman to contact them.

"What are you talking about? They're already husband and wife…" Davis chuckled, causing Mival Silverwind to take a step back in shock. Even Alia Silverwind looked shocked that she couldn't help but blurt out.
"But… I haven't heard them officially marry yet…?"
"Oh… they're going to announce it very soon, so I ask you three to keep it in wraps until then, but I think that they would find it incredibly embarrassing if you were to wish them a happy married life. Ahaha!" Davis couldn't help but start laughing in amus.e.m.e.nt.
Mival Silverwind and Alia Silverwind simply couldn't believe their eyes.
This… This is simply such a huge scandal that would shake the powers of the Nine Western Territories! Beauty Tirea Snow was a highly sought-out woman that her name echoed far and wide amidst Ninth Stage Powerhouses, even in the mid-sized Territories. He turned to look at them with his mouth agape, finding things becoming more and more interesting.
No wonder Davis claimed that they needed their protection in turn for giving them a luxurious place to live and cultivate.
He couldn't help but feel his 'youthful' times return and couldn't help but lament what he had become now, being nothing more than a wanderer who was discriminated against and chased everywhere. Perhaps, with this lad, he could finally experience what it means to live again.
Nevertheless, they just bought his words at face value. If they were to wrongly congratulate, that would mean offending them. If it were the truth, it was good. He didn't need to have the headache of facing an unrelated power.
However, it was still unknown if Ancestor Dian Alstreim could convince Ancestor Tirea Snow's countless suitors that she was his and his alone. There may be a bit of struggle for it for all he knew.
Nero Alstreim, who already had his mouth agape, thinking that he finally returned, couldn't help but look at Ancestor Dian Alstreim from the edge of the flying boat. He couldn't help but tremble, feeling that Davis can't do anything to him anymore if he had malicious intent against him because he believed that Ancestor Dian Alstreim was a just individual who single-handedly supported the family for more than ten thousand years.
"Ancestor…." He uttered with a bit of emotion of reliance.
However, the moment he heard that he was husband and wife with the Falling Snow Sect's Ancestor, his jaw dropped along with the Silverwinds'.
Davis knew that telling this fact was disadvantageous, but he also knew that this fact would be brought up by Ancestor Dian Alstreim himself since a protector needs to know what kind of enemy they would be facing before they settle the deal. Therefore, he made it a point to make it a 'joyous' fact instead of a 'negative' fact that would affect their living.
He glanced at them and saw that they were already finding this amusing.
'There's a timing for almost everything… huh…' Davis returned his gaze as he possessed a sly smile on his face.
If they had known it during the negotiation, it would only become a negative point and not a joyous fact in their perspective. In the same way, Davis felt that he had to wait for the right timing to tell Evelynn and Natalya about Nadia and Niera. They already knew that he had decided to make Sophie his woman.
His heart couldn't help but feel a bit nervous as he just thought of it.
Imagine him leaving his wives to not involve himself in anything s.e.x.u.a.l so as to focus on training, but he precisely could not do that and ended up having feelings from three women from the training session?
He practically had no face left to see those two, including Isabella.
In a few seconds, they arrived at the island as the flying boat below them disappeared. Nadia returned to her human form as she became a beauty even more than Ancestor Tirea Snow as she stood beside Davis and the Silverwinds' stayed on another end as if forming a triangle of powers.
However, there was a single person who stood in the center, having a wry expression on his face, while Ancestor Dian Alstreim's expression looked stiff as if he had seen a ghost.
Ancestor Tirea Snow noticed the anomaly of why an Alstreim Family Elder would be here along with them, but she had no recollection of this particular Elder. Her eyes suddenly noticed Dian Alstreim's expression as she couldn't help but send him a soul transmission.
"What's wrong…?"
"He… That's a dead person!" Ancestor Dian Alstreim blurted out as he pointed towards Nero Alstreim before he looked at Davis.
"What is the meaning of this? You didn't say anything about 'that' to me?" His expression was stiff, and his pupils were shaking.
Davis's cheeks puffed up as he suppressed his laughter.
'That'? Did his father-in-law was just designated as 'that' by the Ancestor?
"Yes, we must kill 'that' before it turns into something hideous…" Davis couldn't help but keep his face straight as he solemnly uttered.
"You… Shut up!!!" Nero Alstreim pointed at Davis as his expression blushed in shame before he pointed at himself, "Ancestor, it's me! Nero Alstreim! Nora Alstreim's Father! I'm still alive! Not dead! This brat is playing with us!"
Ancestor Dian Alstreim's stiff expression relaxed before he blinked, feeling utter disbelief as he looked at Nero Alstreim's convincing expression and aura. He had thought that Nero Alstreim was an impostor and played that he saw a 'ghost', but to think that Nero Alstreim was really alive.
He couldn't help but heave a heavy sigh of alleviation because he was told that he could've saved them if he had moved as they had sent a distress signal to one of their Grand Elders, but it was too bad that he was unable to come out as he had secluded himself in cultivation seclusion, unable to be disturbed for a period of time.
When he had learned and stepped out, their life tablets had shattered. He felt bad because of it, but what's happened had happened, but to see him remain alive lessened a burden from his shoulders.
He couldn't help but possess a wide smile on his face, "Glad to have you back, Nero."
Nero Alstreim's lips quivered as his face was filled with various emotions.
"Ancestor, I…"
