Divine Emperor of Death

Chapter 1182 Reaching The First Destination

”Davis... I didnʼt know... I wonʼt disturb you anymore...”

Sophie sounded apologetic and hurriedly tried to stand up. However, even with two tries, Davis didnʼt seem to let go of her.

”Idiot... No one said that it is your fault for distracting me...”

Davis pursed his lips. He didnʼt mean to hide the true reason as to why he was training here. After all, he didnʼt care about Coiling Dragon Den or the other assassin organization as he felt that their chances of assassinating him were way less than that unknown danger.

He did want to say that there was some unknown danger lurking behind him, but considering what it almost did to him, or even Isabella, which it did or did not affect her, he didnʼt know for sure, and thatʼs why he didnʼt want to endanger any one of them.

It was merely his speculations and his instincts, but he trusted these two things to a degree, making him think that these dangers were truly present. Even if he was paranoid or delusional, he felt thankful as it was at least motivating him to get stronger as soon as possible.

Besides, Sophie didnʼt know a lot of things about him or his wives. He felt that it would be better if she remained ignorant for a while and let his wives do the explaining while they bond over it.

ʼItʼs a fine plan...ʼ Davis inwardly thought before he heard her speak.

”Iʼm not disturbing you...?” Sophie appeared doubtful.

Davis smiled at her adorable look that made his heart itchy before he leaned and took her lips. Her lips were soft and delicate, making him seek her more.

Although Sophie appeared taken aback, she passionately responded a second later, feeling his need for her presence establish in her brain.

ʼAh... This is the reason why he did such a thing...ʼ Sophie finally understood that it was to make her feel secure.

Indeed, it was three weeks already, and nothing happened between them. Although Sophie was in seclusion, it wasnʼt as if her mind hadnʼt wandered off, thinking if he would suddenly storm into her room to make love with her.

Her cultivation was interrupted many times the same number of times as she thought of it, but she still tried her best to concentrate and reached the Low-Level Gold Stage and the apex of the Peak-Level Law Manifestation Stage. Now, all she had to do was wait to comprehend Fire Laws till the level she thought of reaching before breaking through, so she remained doing precisely that as she absorbed fire-attributed power stones but could not concentrate with Davis filling her thoughts.

It just made her heart burn with love and expectations instead.

And that passion directly translated into this hot kiss they shared. She waited for this moment, let go of her embarrassment, and became a temptress as she kept responding to him, their lips stirring with desire as they left a trail of saliva when they shared deep kisses while looking at their reactions.

*Creek!~*

The wooden houseʼs entrance opened. Nadia walked in dressed in black robes in her human form, her golden eyes landing on them passionately kissing as they held their heads.

Sophie froze as her entire being acted as if she was a kid caught while doing a naughty deed. On the other hand, Davis just became stiff for a moment before he resumed. He pressed his lips on hers, taking advantage of her silence to pry open her mouth as he let his tongue in!

”!!!”

Sophieʼs eyes were wide, becoming shocked by his sudden invasion. Her eyes shook, watching Nadia while Nadia watched her, their reactions simply different as one viewed with curiosity and the other squealed with shame and embarrassment etched on her face.

A few moments later, Davis smacked his lips with hers and let her go as he licked his lips, scrapping off her taste while appearing pretty satisfied as he breathed a bit hard. Sophie was also breathing hard, if not more than Davis, her bosoms heaving up and down.

They still held each other, turning to look at each otherʼs expression with passion, while Sophie possessed an addition of embarrassment and blame as she shamefully lowered her head.

”Nadia is a magical beast...” Davis teased, ”Besides, she is a woman too...”

”Even so...” Sophie protested, her expression turning red as she hid her face on his chest.

For some reason, Sophie felt extremely embarrassed when being watched by Nadia.

So what if Nadia was a magical beast? She was still in her human form, watching them intently like they were the prey! It was like another human was watching her!

How can she not be embarrassed!?

ʼDamn, she is so adorable...ʼ Davis chuckled as he held her, feeling he could fall in love by just watching her reactions.

”Alright, alright... I wonʼt do it again...” Davis chuckled as he wrapped his arms around her thighs and made her be seated on the couch before he stood up.

He turned to look at Nadia, ”Did you manage to hunt a King Beast Stage Magical Beast?”

Nadia shook her head with a dejected expression, ”Itʼs difficult for me to maintain my concealment in the sea, and even though itʼs night everywhere here, my concealment is greatly hindered because there are some strange sources of light enveloping the sea beneath, likely from those rock formations.”

ʼLight-attributed rocks under the sea...?ʼ Davis narrowed his eyes, but he continued listening.

”The King Beast Stage Magical Sea-Beasts lurking deep in the sea flees once they become aware that they are no match for me, and since Iʼm no match for them in terms of fleeing in the sea and couldnʼt pursue them far since I have to protect Master, I can only stay here.”

”On the other hand...” Nadiaʼs expression became a bit bashful as she looked elsewhere, ”I obtained more Peak-Level Lord Beast Stage Carcasses than I thought I would...”

”Like how much...?”

”Like... Twenty-six... The majority ran away, with only a few daring or ignorant ones remaining.”

”Hahahaha!” Davis laughed, ”Guess I donʼt need to worry about your lunch and dinner for a few weeks...”

Nadia lowered her head with a bit of shame as she didnʼt want to be seen as gluttonous, especially by her Master. Thatʼs why she limited her hunt to Peak-Level Lord Beast Stage existences.

”Alright, itʼs time for us to leave. Sophie, itʼs your turn again to take us to the Purple Thunderflame Mountain...”

”I...” Sophie turned a bit hesitant.

The last time she guided him as a navigator, she brought him such bad luck despite traveling the correct route, almost endangering all their life. If Davis hadnʼt decided to abandon the flying boat at that point in time, it was unknown how they would have ventured into the Lightning Sea and blown to smithereens as a result.

Nevertheless, her expression turned determined as she nodded her head.

”I will definitely get us to the Purple Thunderflame Mountain this time! Just leave it to me!”

”Thatʼs reassuring...” Davis smiled as he nodded his head.

======

Lava surged out from crater-like holes, and lightning pored from the candy-like clouds present in the skies. The whole mountain range that was visible in the distance appeared to be covered in red and purple hue, becoming a unique sight to see as the island appeared otherworldly, similar to a gateway to hell.

Davis, Nadia, and Sophie looked at the island they were nearing with a bit of a smile plastered over their faces.

”You managed to make it, Sophie...” Davis spoke.

Sophie honestly and gracefully took it as she appeared happy.

Reassuring was what he said, but it took them half a day to arrive at the Purple Thunderflame Mountain. There was no Lightning Sea, but a frightening storm that spanned millions of square kilometers in the sea did stall them for a while.

Nevertheless, with Sophie helming his flying boat, they were able to avoid those obstacles before making it to the west side of the Purple Thunderflame Mountain.

Davis took the control back and gradually landed on the peak of a small reddish-black mountain range. Above them, purple lightning flashed and struck the ground, sometimes falling in the craters that were seething with lava.

”Now then, Sophie... What is it that youʼre looking for here?”

Sophie took out a map without hesitation and showed it to Davis, ”In the north side of the periphery, very close to the inner region, there should be plenty of ores that Iʼm looking for... If it goes well, we can even obtain Yorang Ore thatʼs used to make fire-attributed weapons in Low-Level Emperor Grade Forging! If not, weʼll just have to be satisfied with the lower-ranked Blazuk Ore thatʼs helpful in Low-Level to Peak-Level King Grade Forging.”

”Oh...? Doesnʼt the Alstreim Family have stock of it...?”

”That...” Sophie Alstreim pursed her lips before she sighed, ”This is only known to a few, but we ended up selling most of them to a few powers practicing Fire Laws from a mid-sized Territory after facing many threats and causalities around two hundred years ago. For the remaining ores, they have already been exhausted by ourselves.”

”Knowing that we would be targeted again somehow, we didnʼt touch these ores for a while as we had no use for them for the time being as our own armaments are enough. However, itʼs been planned to be retrieved in the upcoming expedition directed by Grand Elders and Elders alike. After all, in three hundred or so years, the Hundred Devil Thunder Archipelago would be closed because of those overbearing and evil powers.”

Davis chuckled as he reached out his hand towards Sophie, patting her head.

”Donʼt worry. In a decade, letʼs see who dares to mess with the Alstreim Family...”

Sophieʼs heart skipped a beat as she gazed at his confident expression. That kind of confidence was just too attractive! She looked away, finding it unbearable. If Nadia wasnʼt here, she wanted to throw herself at him in excitement!
