Logan glared at Davis, "Be careful of what you say. She's my master."
"Ma- what?" Davis turned stunned, "You can't be kidding."
Logan's expression turned profound, "Master possesses a physique very similar to the Malevolent Darkness Soul and also uses lightning attacks."
"…" Davis's eyes brightened in response, but Logan continued to talk.
"Naturally, I can't pass the opportunity to beg her to accept me as her disciple. I have to become stronger no matter what, and I simply couldn't be relying on you all the time. After all my repeated requests, she finally acquiesced and accepted me as her in-name disciple, so don't go spreading rumors that would damage her reputation."
Logan warned, but Davis already descended into thinking about what was so unique about the Malevolent Darkness Soul that it wasn't exhibiting anything great other than an increased perception towards Darkness Laws, the ability to use Darkness Laws even if they were attuned to Light Laws in the beginning but most annoyingly, fueling negative thoughts into their soul that corrupts them.
His Evelynn, Mingzhi, and Sophie also produced the Malevolent Darkness Soul, so he was all the more worried about its true nature, hoping that it was what it was and didn't have any time bomb that he or Myria failed to see.
"But I can't give up unless I fully obtain what I need, which is her self-made immortal cultivation manual for her soul physique. I have a feeling that it would push me to greater heights, just like the time I knew I was compatible with Nora's flames."
Davis came out of his reverie and sneered, "You want to dual cultivate with your master, don't you?"
"You- You want your mother to pulverize me when she ascends?"
Logan appeared quite embarrassed as he saw people were still around them. He pointed at Davis, "First of all, how can we dual cultivate with the soul? Don't go spreading needless rumors!"
'Damn, father is quite ignorant…'
Follow on NovᴇlEnglish.nᴇtDavis shook his head. He cast a pitiful gaze at his father and patted his shoulder.
"You have yet to see the wider world. Anything— literally anything could be possible…"
He revealed a knowing smile and walked past his father, leaving behind Logan shaking his head over his son, acting like a philosopher when he was as much- if not a greater womanizer than him.
He shot a look at the crimson-robed woman beside him walking past him and saw her lightly nod her head at him, an action that only his daughters-in-law would perform.
'So even wicked path women aren't safe from him…'
Logan could only shake his head again. Eventually, he left the island again, making his way towards his new master.
As for Davis, he forgot about Yotan while posing, causing him to inwardly mumble, but he knew the opportunity would come again to interact with her. As for his father, Davis wanted him to interact more with his new master and learn some information about the Malevolent Soul Physique if it was possible.
After all, that Elder's physique seemed to be similar according to his words.
Davis arrived at his mansion and sensed numerous auras shooting toward him, making him freeze.
The empty hall instantly became full of clamor as the kids jumped into his embrace.
Clearly, these puppy-eyed adorable daughters didn't know what restraint meant, quickly pulling him into wanting to play, which he did for a few minutes before the hall was quite noisy with almost everyone gathered except a few who could be still cultivating or doing other things such as learning or practicing occupations.
They watched him play with Eterna and Celestia with a relaxed atmosphere, sometimes even joining with them.
Soon enough, the little fairies wanted to play hide-and-seek, finally leaving him alone with his women as they went to hide.
"Good work~"
Mingzhi handed him a juice, which he grasped and gulped down as he sat with them.
The juice was quite exquisite, sometimes tasting like strawberry and other times like a dragon fruit. He enjoyed this concoction but didn't go into detail, instead asking if they got all they needed to have in order to increase their prowess tremendously.
"Of course not."
Sophie shook her head, "Some resources are still with you, dear~"
"Hmm. I see."
Davis nodded, knowing that Sophie was in charge of allocating resources to others at the moment since she held a note of what they obtained. He believed that she would be fair, so he didn't bother, but it turned out he forgot to give them a few resources that were still in his spatial ring, although he showed them the reason why he forgot.
"Everyone, meet Schleya again. From this day onwards, she's one of you."
"…"
Schleya was standing at the corner like usual, but the words he said struck a chord in her heart and made her feel heavy as she suddenly felt innumerable gazes land on her.
"Finally…"
Mingzhi reclined on the sofa more as she heaved a loud sigh, "The Blood Demoness makes the Emperor of Death fall for her vile charms. Would make a good title for a news, don't you think?"
She disappeared and reappeared beside Schleya, causing the latter's ears to turn red.
Follow on Novᴇl-Onlinᴇ.cᴏm"Indeed." Davis's lips curled, "The true reason I was late was because I fell for a bloody trap."
"You…!"
Schleya reacted with a tremor, but before she could say anything, she was swarmed by everyone else.
"Congratulations, Schleya."
Tanya was simply happy for a fellow soul who didn't know social cues.
"We long expected you to join us!" Isabella giggled.
"What took you so long? Come, you finally earned the right to eat our ice cream." Shirley grinned.
"…"
Schleya simply didn't know how to react to the sudden turn of events that made her feel too close, which rather made her feel uneasy. However, she saw a purple-robed woman with a swollen belly walk over and hold her hands, bringing it to her stomach, which made her heart skip a beat.
"Schleya," Evelynn opened her mouth, "Our man fully believes you to be one of us, and I do too. In fact, everyone was anticipating your arrival into the harem, so naturally, that would make you their mother. Tell me, do you want to marry Davis?"
Schleya shook as she felt the movements in Evelynn's stomach. Perhaps because she practiced Blood Laws, she could even imagine the shape, face, and gestures, causing her to be full of wonder as this was her first time coming in contact with such a thing.
'Such a fragile life…' She was afraid that she would end it just by standing beside her, making her stiff, but then, looking at Evelynn's light smile, her heart warmed up as her eyes teared up.
"Mhm… I want to marry him…"
Evelynn's smile became more profound, "Well said."
"With that said," She turned to look around at Davis, "You have a lot of responsibilities, so how are you going to make time for a grand event like marriage?"
Davis's gaze flashed in response.
Schleya didn't say anything, but it seemed like she also held the wish to get married. However, he didn't know if it was with fanfare or simply a few guests, which made him want to ask, but he decided on what to do.
