Chapter 3071: Unexpected Reaction

Chapter 2270: Unexpected Reaction

After realizing what had happened, Davis’s smile became profound as he moved his lips.

“You saw how Myria looks after me, saying that she’ll create a protective spirit formation for my heavenly tribulation. Even if you say that you’re not a bad girl, who do you think she’ll believe? Me or you?”

“…”

Lereza’s body trembled even more before she finally stopped, lowering her head.

*Splat~* *Splat~*

Two drops of tears hit the ground, causing Davis to become taken aback suddenly. However, he could hear Lereza starting to sob, her body quivering ever so lightly.

Davis no longer smiled, slightly reaching out his hand with hesitation written all over his face.

“Mhmmmmm~~~”

Abruptly, her silently crying became even more audible, causing Davis’s mouth to turn agape.

If he was not sure Lereza was truly crying before, then now, she really was crying at full throttle. She just didn’t cry out loud, that’s all but tears were pouring out of her eyes, falling on the ground as it created a puddle.

‘Holy smokes… Could it be when she was saved by Myria, she was just a little girl…? Is that why Myria didn’t recognize her?’

To Davis, it seemed Lereza cared so much about Myria’s opinion over that that she cried like a child. It made him think if she was here from the time she was a child, causing him to suddenly feel guilty.

‘Did I just make a child cry?’

Davis couldn’t help but feel bad but also felt strange, as though wanting to badly soothe her.

‘Wait… this feeling…’

Davis’s eyes narrowed, “Did you just use Charm Laws against me?”

“Mhh—!”

Lereza shivered as she silently hummed while sobbing even more, causing her shoulders to visibly shake. Her actions made Davis blink, again and again, not knowing what to think of her anymore.

Even when she was found out, Lereza was still crying like a child who had been caught red-handed and not smirking like a mature, sly woman.

Davis lowered his head, not knowing how what kind of face she made was true. The bored, mature woman she showed herself to be at the beginning or the child she was now.

Not able to understand, Davis pressed on.

“I’m going to tell Myria that you used Charm Laws against me like a bad girl.”

“Wait…!” Lereza quickly raised her head and reached out her hand, appearing all tearful, “Please… don’t… tell… Saintess Myria. I’ll listen to your words…”

“…”

At this point, Davis was compelled to believe he was dealing with a child.

Another thing also concerned Davis was that If Lereza had been a child when she arrived here, had she been alone for thousands of years without interacting with people? Only her body and perhaps knowledge had grown but not her mindset?

Moreover, she asked him if he mistakes her for a child which made him think if someone or even the world master treated her like a child. It was almost like she threw a tantrum, causing Davis to contemplate for a while before he shook his head.

‘If only I was stronger, allowing me to sense Lereza’s true emotions through Enigmatic Heart Intent…’

He wondered how easy it would be to make a final decision.

From what he experienced so far, Davis felt that Lereza was still a child at heart.

As evidence, he felt that the Charm Laws she used against him were quite weak, as though a child innocently trying to not make the guardian angry through acting pitiful. It possessed no harm. But as things stood, even if Lereza was a child, she was still an Immortal King entity who could delete him with a single blink of her eyes.

He was worried something might happen but if his women wanted to catch up to him, then there was no other choice than to bring them here. He could no longer postpone their cultivation ambitions and neither could he traverse the First Haven World without putting them here, safely in his soul sea.

“Alright, don’t cry. I won’t say anything as long as you listen to me. I can be quite reasonable, you know.”

Davis walked to her and patted her shoulder, causing Lereza to tremble ever so slightly before she turned to look at his face, silently nodding her head. Although her pink veil was an obstruction, Davis could see the emotions in her eyes.

What he saw was… relief.

And what he felt was… that this Immortal King entity was innocent as a wildflower to not even display her prowess to intimidate him.

=======

After the unexpected incident with Lereza, Davis walked out of the Nine-Treasured Immortal Ordeal Palace with Lea, arm-in-arm.

Outside his chamber, he met up with Evelynn and shot a knowing smile at her.

“You’re the one who sent Lea inside, weren’t you?”

It wasn’t that Evelynn didn’t let anyone inside but without seeking her permission first, no one would dare to go inside his chambers, afraid that they would disturb him. It was better to have the first wife’s backing in that case.

“That’s right.” Evelynn lightly smiled as she looked at Lea, “Can’t keep hogging you to myself.”

Lea returned the smile, walking towards her before she hugged Evelynn.

“Thank you so much, big sister. I wouldn’t have found the courage without you.”

“No.” Evelynn hugged back, “Thank you for taking care of him.”

“Mhm~ I had a sweet time.” Lea blushed ever so lightly before she paved way for Davis and Evelynn.

Davis held Evelynn’s waist and gave her a loving kiss gently.

This adorable woman kept waiting for him outside his room every time even if he said not to.

For one, she didn’t need to cultivate that much because she was a fey but her devotion to him was just purely passion-inducing, making him feel head over heels for her.

Once he let go of her delicious lips, Davis spoke, “Everyone must’ve dispersed already. Gather them at the hall for me, Evelynn. I’ll go see Everlight in the meantime.”

“Alright.”

Evelynn answered while Davis turned around and kissed Lea’s cheek, whispering in her ears as it echoed as a soul transmission.

“Take care of Evelynn for me. She can be obsessive at times but is truly kind.”

“I know.” Lea smirked as she pushed him away, “You can leave us and go see your new fiancee.”

Davis gawked, “I have not confirmed that yet.”

“The fact that you let her stay can only mean one thing…”

Lea tapped his nose with a knowing smile and daintily walked away as she grabbed Evelynn’s hand, leaving an astonished Davis.

Although he was joyful that Lea opened up more, revealing a sassy self that he had never seen, he smilingly shook his head over to this quick growth and went to the lower floors where Everlight should be accommodated.

There really were not many people on the lower floors except the people working there as Blood Soul Contract-bound servants, overseen by his father and mother. After all, this palace was too big and spacious to be looked after by them alone.

As he walked into the hallway after arriving on the precise floor, he couldn’t help but think about what happened outside. No immortals revealed themselves, making him understand they had all left but a majority of the hegemons survived. However, most talented or important people were taken away by the immortals.

People like Starnova Emperor, Farah Lanate, Ivy Aries, Jade Aurora, and Nyoran were taken away while the Mandate Emperor and Karmic Guardian Emperor seemed to have survived. But, the two Emperors were aghast over what had happened, almost losing their will to strive forward if it weren’t for Davis and Myria where they repeatedly thanked and praised him for his heroic efforts of saving the Fifty-Two Territories.

This calamitous event shook every race, allowing the humans, magical beasts, feys, and spirits to come forward and have a long, nice chat while Davis wasn’t interested in it.

After finding this out with his Solitary Soul Avatar, he tried to venture out of the Fifty-Two Territories as a scout but ended up being swallowed by the spatial waves, turning dead. As a result, he lost his Solitary Soul Avatar but thought that was good because he could now actually proceed to try numerous techniques to create a useful avatar.

Arriving at the location where he sensed Everlight’s remnant undulations, he knocked on the door.

*Knock~*

*Creak~*

The door was instantly opened which caused Davis to blink at Everlight’s swift speed.
