Divine Emperor of Death

Chapter 2208: second Coming

Davis sat in his bed-chamber, simply meditating over the tons of information he held in his mind, digesting them. They were mostly about Herbology, Alchemy, Forging, Inscriptions, and many miscellaneous things he picked up from visiting many powers during this time.

Of course, he didn't solely concentrate on furthering himself but spent a few days chatting with his women, not just one but all of them.

He had spent time with his wives, but since he already took care of them a lot, he made sure to visit the ones whom he hadn't married yet, like Sophie, Niera, Zestria, Lea, Tanya, Bylai, Niera, Tina and Dalila. Just looking at their beauty brought him a sense of pride as well but simply sitting beside them, wrapping his arm around their soft, supple waist, and talking with them brought him joy and ever-increasing love towards them as he came to know more about them, sometimes teasing to get adorable reactions out of them.

Although they were all just avatars, they were more than overjoyed to welcome him to their rooms and talk with him, sharing intimate and cultivation knowledge without reserve.

It was totally different from their main bodies, who were completely in survival mode.

Nonetheless, a major event occurred during this time.

Davis also personally oversaw Diana and Edward's cultivations, allowing them to increase their comprehension of Wind Laws and Lightning Laws, perfecting their cultivations. However, Diana was afraid that the world was calamitous and adamantly brought her lover to the Alstreim Family!

She got engaged to Wayn Nolan on that very day amidst the witness of their parents, formulating a marriage pact with him!

Davis could only shake his head at Diana's hasty decision to tie herself with Wayn Nolan, but that goes to say how she cared about him, unable to let him go. Naturally, he had determined Wayn Nolan's character before giving approval, and that took him a few days.

To his surprise, Wayn Nolan was still a virgin. He was required to wear that karmic robe when getting engaged, similar to what he wore when getting married to Evelynn, and it would require Wayn Nolan to wear the same during the marriage to prove that he was still chaste and did not betray the bride.

There were too many rules and conditions for Wayn Nolan to marry Diana, some forceful and a few others slightly emasculating, but despite that, it seemed his love for Diana was more that he looked at Davis eye to eye and asked for her hand in marriage trembling ever so lightly, which made him feel quite impressed although he did bully Wayn Nolan to his limit, almost causing a mental breakdown while citing the reason that Diana was far stronger and how could he match her magnificence, which made Diana cry and act aggrieved towards him.

It made Davis quite sad to see his second little sister finally leave home, although it was a figure of speech because Wayn Nolan would be marrying into their family, after all, becoming Wayn Loret.

Moreover, it was unknown how many angry hearts echoed over a loss of beauty, but there was little the Alstreim Family youths could do considering that Diana was the Emperor of Death's second little sister.

Nonetheless, Davis wouldn't have accepted this marriage if Wayn Nolan wasn't up to par. It seemed that the youth had worked hard day and night to see Diana, keeping her in his heart that he could see with his Enigmatic Heart Intent that this young man's mind was clouded with pure love towards Diana.

In fact, he felt that Diana might have more of a dirty mind than Wayn Nolan, which made him inwardly laugh. However, it was not the dirty mind that was the problem but the dirty heart. Fortunately, he couldn't find such a thing in Wayn Nolan.

Perhaps, in his opinion, Wayn Nolan would just be like Ancestor Ezekiel Alstreim, who didn't dare look at another woman despite being trapped in the sealed lightning space for thousands of years.

With Wayn Nolan's character ascertained and practically stamped to be good, near perfect for one of their family's women, there was only his cultivation to worry about, and to Davis, who possessed countless resources in the Mortal Realm, bringing Wayn Nolan up in the path of cultivation was only a matter of time, and when he declared his intent to accept Wayn Nolan into the family and sponsor his cultivation, Diana forgot her grievance and hugged him tightly, declaring that her brother was the best.

Davis laughed and congratulated Diana before he saw her roll her tongue at Edward, who was with his own beauties. It seemed that something happened between Diana and Edward that spurred Diana to finally no longer have patience and bring Wayn Nolan here.

Nonetheless, with the engagement ceremony ending and the marriage fixed at a later date due to the precarious situation, he returned and had just started resuming his studies for a few days when suddenly, the palace heavily shook.

*Rumble!~*

'What!? Someone is capable of injuring the Mortal Hex Emperor Palace!? Why can't I sense their undulations!?'

Davis became shocked and alerted before he hurriedly flew out, followed by many others. However, they were shocked to see the entire world was trembling with a ray of light piercing in the eastern direction as it plunged straight down, although it appeared as though it was slightly bent.

Everyone's expression changed as they saw that the ray of light was being shot from the Calamity Light.

'Here it is… the second coming of the calamity...'

Instantly, everyone thought as their hearts jolted. However, the situation became more precarious when the huge ray of light gave out such luminosity that they had to close their eyes to avoid getting their eyes burned.

Even Davis had to squint his eyes, wondering what was going on in the eastern direction. Considering that direction was towards the Three Great Righteous Sects and the Magical Beast Territories, was something happening over there?

'This is bad… our main bodies have all entered that strange spatial gate, and the connection has been cut off ever since then...'

Davis thought, his eyes squinting more before he closed his eyes as the blinding light became too much to bear that he felt the light might have reached the entire Fifty-Two Territories, even the crevices. The sky still shook crazily as though it was going to shatter and collapse into the void to everyone's fear.

Even Evelynn came forward to grab his hand as though wanting to spend their last time together. Only she could do this feat as the others were unable to sense his location through the soul, becoming blinded.

A minute later, the rumbling stopped, causing them to open their eyes and see that the ray of light was receding from a thick wave into a thin line before it didn't touch the surface anymore as it faded upwards, returning to the Calamity Light.

"W-What just happened…?"

Evelynn voiced out her trepidation, having almost thought she was going to be turned into cinders from the blinding ray of light. She turned around and saw the damage occurred, except there was no damage other than people wailing that their eyes had gone blind.

To Davis, it was already observable that the ray of light possessed no threat to them, at least, to the denizens of the Alstreim Family. However…

"If I'm not wrong, something must've happened in the central region since the ray of light shone towards the east. Let me go visit."

"Wait, I'm coming as well!"

"No, you stay here and protect our family at all costs!"

Davis narrowed his eyes at Evelynn, commanding her before flying off into the distance, causing Evelynn to bite her lips before she turned to look at the others, gathering them before in the main hall, ready to leave to the Grand Sea Continent when the situation calls as they planned.
