Divine Emperor of Death

Chapter 1721 - Tempting Offers

”Oh my, a mere slave dares to drop precious Aqua Flood Dragon Meat?”

Quara grinned at Zestria Domitian, ”Looks like it wonʼt be long before you are punished and traded away for your uselessness.”

As Quara sneered, Zestria Domitian retreated two steps back with fear visible in her eyes. Her face that was already pale was turning aghast from realizing the consequences of being traded off to this tyrannical female magical beast.

”No... I...”

Zestria Domitian shook her head when a bold and domineering voice echoed.

”Insolent!”

The heads of everyone swiveled towards Zestria Domitianʼs side, where they saw Bylai Zlatan wave her hand and look at Quara with narrowed eyes.

”Do you know who youʼre talking to? Zestria Domitian isnʼt just any ordinary slave but also the Emperor of Deathʼs woman. If you think you can take her away just because of a heavenly treasure, youʼre extremely wrong!”

She folded her arms and looked overbearingly at Quara, causing the latter to shudder.

Had she made a mistake?

On the other hand, everyone else looked towards Davis in shock as they heard Bylai Zlatanʼs words while Claire and Logan blinked.

Had he really done it? Conquering the body of his slaves through force?

But before they could all make a judgment, Davis slightly chuckled.

”Looks like thereʼs a misunderstanding...”

Bylai Zlatan widened her eyes at Davis.

What was he saying? She groomed Zestria Domitian half a day ago, so how could she not know that Davis robbed Zestria of her innocence today?

Zestria didnʼt talk to her today, so what else could it mean other than-

Suddenly, she felt a tug on her sleeves as she turned to look back at Zestria Domitian, who trembled while holding her as if though she was her only ally.

”Bylai, his eminence didnʼt visit me...”

”What!?”

Bylai Zlatanʼs body went stiff as she looked at Zestria Domitian lower her head.

This whole time, she had thought that the Emperor of Death had taken her innocence away, causing her to be silent this while, but now, it didnʼt seem to be the case.

While the others smiled in approval or heaved a sigh of relief, a joyful scream echoed out.

”Still a virgin!?”

Quara deeply smiled as she flinched in excitement. She didnʼt even care about reprimanding Bylai Zlatan but turned to look at Davis.

”Emperor of Death, my Scarlet Tyrant Hawk Abode is willing to give even more resources, like a Peak-Level Emperor Grade Fire Elemental we captured a century ago and still readily have it in our Treasury. As long as you allow this transaction to pass, Iʼm willing to fork out a few other lower-level Emperor Grade resources as well.”

”Oh!~~~”

Clamor erupted in the hall as they heard Quaraʼs words.

All that for a single slave?

Isnʼt that just too tempting?

They couldnʼt help but turn to look at Davis, expecting his reply.

”Why? Is it because of her Fire Dragon Blood, or do you have a grudge against her?” Isabella asked instead.

”No, Earth Dragon Queen,” Quara shook her head, ”We have no personal grudge against Zestria Domitian, but her Fire Dragon Blood and primal yin essence are immensely beneficial to us rather any single one of you. We both tend to profit out of the trade, so I remain hopeful and confident that youʼll accept this proposition.”

”True. It does indeed benefit us.”

Davis slightly nodded, causing Quara to smile brightly and Zestria Domitian to shudder violently.

To Davis, the magical beasts were straightforward and did not beat around the bush, which made him like them. However, this trade made him wonder why they would come to him and exchange valuable resources for Zestria Domitian. Sure, he could understand Zestria Domitianʼs value to them but was it worth such resources?

He felt that there must be some kind of catch here.

”Let me guess.” Davis tapped his forehead a few times before he pursed his lips, ”Her blood allows you to step into the King-Tier?”

Quara flinched ever so slightly as she looked at Davis with wide eyes. However, knowing that her reaction gave her answer away, she didnʼt bother to hide it.

”The purity of her blood is good but is nowhere enough as it would just increase the chances of me becoming a King-Tier Magical Beast by around three percent. However, it is still worth trying more so than anything because it is a chance to become a King-Tier Magical Beast!”

As Quara spoke, she looked towards Nadia, causing everyone to nod and understand.

Nadiaʼs prowess was frightening, able to cross three levels, but that was because of her death attribute adding on to her King-Tier existence. Nevertheless, Quara was already able to fight a level above herself, which meant that she could also possibly match Nadia, but even to Quara, such a reality seemed unlikely.

Perhaps, she might only be able to reach the footstep of having a prowess that crosses three levels, certainly not like Nadia.

But suddenly, Quara lowered her head as her pupils dilated.

ʼHowever, I have the Flickering Starfire Sunder Leaf, an Emperor Grade heavenly treasure that allows us fire-attribute magical beasts to invoke our bloodline potential, allowing the consumer to become a King-Tier Magical Beast. But, it is merely a catalyst and needs the main ingredient, so as long as I have a virgin Zestria Domitian and refine her body together with the Flickering Starfire Sunder Leaf, I will be able to have a thirty-five percent chance to become an Emperor Beast Stage King-Tier Magical Beast; possessing the same status as the wicked wolf even if it were not her strength!ʼ

Quara inwardly trembled as she thought of the prospects of obtaining this slave.

If she became a King-Tier Magical Beast, who else would dare to move against her? Her entire clan and even her powerful father would be under her control! That was only considering her clan. If one took the other magical beasts into account, they might also submit due to the current circumstances.

Nevertheless, as she waited with her head lowered, a voice finally echoed.

”Since Zestria Domitian doesnʼt actively want to be my emperorʼs woman, I guess the only way to benefit from her is to sell her to the Scarlet Tyrant Hawk Abode.”

”You have a point.”

Isabella spoke with an exasperated expression on her face while Davis nodded, causing Zestria Domitian to finally move.

”No...!”

*Whoosh!~*

Everyone thought she was going to run, but they opened their eyes wide as they saw her arrive in front of Davis, not before him but underneath him and the table he sat in front of.

”Please...! Donʼt sell me off! I swear...! I swear to be your obedient slave. I... Iʼll willingly become your woman, so please donʼt sell me to the Scarlet Tyrant Hawk Abode!”

”...!”

Almost everyoneʼs mouth became as they saw this scene before looking at Davis.

Davisʼs brows twitched as he looked at Zestria Domitian, who literally held onto his legs as she kneeled and bent her waist under the low height table. Her face was above his leg, and her tearful and pleading eyes appeared to be able to garner the sympathy of almost any man.

Davisʼs fingers also twitched as he almost flinched and destroyed her into a blood shower if it werenʼt for his soul sense that was already locked on to her.

He could understand her plight and sympathize with her. However...

ʼThis position... itʼs too erotic...ʼ

If she moved towards him a bit, she would be above his intimate zone, which made him think if this was an intentional desperate attempt to seduce him. Nevertheless, looking at the tears that were pouring down her eyes to his robe, he sighed before his lips moved.

”Why didnʼt you latch onto the legs of your Grand Elders when they decided to sell you off to me?”

Zestria Domitian became dumbfounded as her mouth slightly went agape amidst her chaotic emotions. She suddenly realized what she had done in a moment of desperation.

It was not easy to throw away her pride in front of her family, but it was easy to do that in front of the man who kept her enslaved.

ʼNo... I donʼt even have a slave seal in my soul...ʼ

Zestria Domitian understood that she completely let go of the last bit of pride she possessed at this moment, but what could she possibly do other than beg?

Even if she was miserable, she knew that it wouldnʼt be miserable than being taken away to the Scarlet Tyrant Hawk Abode to be chopped into pieces and fed to their members.

The Domitian Family and the Scarlet Tyrant Hawk Abode possessed a hostile relationship in the past. Both hunted down and tortured each other if a chance presented itself, and it was especially worse when their women were captured.

But in the past half a millennium or so, no such thing happened even though their relationship didnʼt change much nor improve.

However, Zestria Domitian had heard stories of how her Domitian Family men would nail a Scarlet Tyrant Hawk to a torturing device and pluck their feathers one by one, making them scream and feel humiliated before proceeding to do awful things, although it could be said the same about the Scarlet Tyrant Hawks doing to their Domitian Familyʼs women.

Nevertheless, such cruelty and hatred were brought to an end half a millennium ago by the peace treaty exchanged by her deceased father and the current Abode Master of the Scarlet Tyrant Hawk Abode, although it wasnʼt known when and where it would be broken, and it looks like it was about to be broken now!

Perhaps, after her, the Scarlet Tyrant Hawks might go after her Domitian Family that had weakened next!
