Divine Emperor of Death-Novel

Chapter 1795: Avatars

Davis moved and sat in front of Lea Weiss while the other two watched.

Lea Weiss looked at him with deep emotions in her crimson eyes, not knowing what to say to be taken care of like this. It wasn’t like anyone tried to cater to her needs in an effort to marry her before, but would they dare give a resource like a Spatial-Attributed Peak-Level Vein Source just like that?

Its value would even match treasures at Peak-Level Emperor Grade and a prowess a level above like some Legacy Artifacts. To give away something like that without expecting anything from her in return other than her love was just too ridiculous that she felt that it was unfair to him.

“Thank you…”

She finally said and lowered her head in shyness while Davis revealed his smile.

“Let me pamper you.” He came clean, “This is the best resource that I can think of that will increase your overall prowess as I doubt Fire-Attribute Peak-Level Spirit Stone Vein Sources would help you much…”

Lea Weiss’s eyes shook.

“But… I’m already old enough that I’m past my prime… Isn’t it bett-“

“You’re not.” Davis firmly shook his head, “The word ‘prime’ is relative to one’s vitality. You’re still young as you reached the Martial Overlord Stage, and as I said before, what the others think doesn’t matter to me. If you’re worried about the opinion of your sisters, then I will say to them that I’m looking to live with you for thousands of years, hundred thousand, millions, and perhaps, an eternity.”

Lea Weiss couldn’t help but blink absentmindedly at his strong words.

“Forget an eternity. What do five thousand years mean when we’re a million years old? There’s only half a percent of the difference. Forget a million years. What do five thousand years mean when I’m ten thousand years old, and you’re fifteen thousand years old? You’re only half the times my age, but would we even care about mundane things like age by that point?”

Lea Weiss’s lips slightly parted as her eyes turned misty on hearing his gentle words. New chaptᴇrs are published on novelenglish.net . (ꜰ)ire.ɴet

“I’m going to treat you like how you asked me to, Lea. Aren’t you a woman before a prideful Sect Master?”

He reached out his hand and wrapped his palm around her nape, and leaned lightly towards her for a kiss. Lea Weiss didn’t dodge nor escape. She could instantly feel the soft sensation of his warmth overwhelming her that she closed her eyes and enjoyed this feeling of being taken care of, not caring about how others would perceive her at this moment.

‘Smooth…’

Mo Mingzhi found his words romantic and sleek, while Tina Roxley also smiled lightly, knowing this feeling of being pampered and wanting it.

However, after the short yet warm kiss, Lea Weiss was embarrassed enough to be not able to concentrate on using the Solitary Soul Avatar that Davis waited for her for some time to calm down and expected; she regained her calm after closing her eyes for a few moments.

Davis could tell that she certainly knew how to take care of her psyche, but that still wasn’t enough to get him out of her mind. Coming to understand that he was that big of a figure in her heart, he placed her finger on his forehead and chanted.

“Know thyself. Believe in yourself. Win over yourself. Don’t be afraid of the pain.”

Lea Weiss started to perform the Solitary Soul Avatar Technique as she felt like she received a strange confident boost. After creating the vessel with her soul force, when she split her soul, terrifying pain assailed her, but then, she suddenly felt that sting of pain lower as though someone had applied healing paste to her wound.

It felt wonderful and magical, allowing her to feel the pain considerably lessen and drop to tolerable levels.

She saw a pure streak of white light shower her soul and was shaken but then, knowing the necessity to complete the technique, she didn’t say anything and worked on creating her avatar.

Sometime later, a streak of light shot out from her soul sea and manifested into another Lea Weiss, where she saw that she was crying from the pain while a burst of pure white light kept flowing into her soul sea from his finger, healing her soul.

Davis turned to look at Lea Weiss’s Solitary Soul Avatar and smiled.

“Don’t be bothered. Splitting one’s soul for the first time is like that…”

His gentle words made her eyes tremble as she sensed that his words contained his own experience of splitting or tearing his own soul… many times?

At this moment, she became aware that she only knew his feats but not how much he had to struggle to reach this point.

But on the other hand, Davis didn’t know how many struggles he avoided with his intellect. Instead of actively picking a fight, he always had to act behind the scenes for the most part of his life, and the one time he openly strutted off his might the most without having apex strength like now ended up being his undoing as his fears came true.

He almost died.

If it weren’t for his wives taking care of him, his body wouldn’t have remained, and neither would his soul have survived, even if Fallen Heaven could passively heal him.

Nonetheless, Lea Weiss still looked at him with incredulity in her eyes as she recognized the type of energy he was using from the texts she read and remained shocked to the core, unable to utter anything of sense or even ask a question. One, she didn’t want to disturb him healing her, and on the other, she wondered if this was a secret that she shouldn’t infringe upon.

After all…

‘Who under the heavens can control Life and Death at the same time!?’

She inwardly screamed, not understanding what was going on. His existence flipped her knowledge, not allowing her to make sense of this situation.

Lea Weiss knew that she sacrificed thirty percent of her soul essence to create this avatar but also knew its efficiency for the future and understood that it was worth the risk. However, feeling her soul essence rapidly heal like it was merely a flesh wound, she was deeply astounded.

“How do you think he healed your heavenly lightning injuries? You’re looking at a man who captured heavenly lightning from his little aunt Tia’s unique heavenly tribulation and fed it to his Lightning Elemental Eldia as though it was a snack. Know who you’re with, Lea Weiss. I’m not bragging about him, but he certainly isn’t your average ‘heavenly genius’ out there.”

At this moment, Mo Mingzhi’s voice resounded in her mind, but unlike her usually goofy and playful voice, it sounded utterly serious, causing her to turn to look at the sharp expression that she hadn’t seen on her face before.

“That’s why you’re in for an extreme ride that I have to warn that you could find yourself at a loss many times or even die. Even he himself knows that but constantly reassures us.”

“I mean, despite being powerful enough to do as he pleases, look at the level of attention he tries to give us. Look at the level of defenses he tries to place around us as though always watching out for something and as he expected, didn’t assassins strike us when we girls expected them the least, convinced that our overall prowess would scare them off? He looks like he’s wasting his time, going around flirting with women with little to no integrity, but I would argue that he’s trying his best to live the life he wants despite the danger to his own will. As his going-to-be sixth wife, I can’t be two-faced about this and judge him for flirting with other women because if he didn’t, I couldn’t have managed to enter his life too. Therefore, I ask you to be more understanding of him and not on guard like you still are…”

Lea Weiss remained quite dumbfounded to hear about Tia and Eldia. She didn’t know much about the former, who was recently taken into the Heaven Gazing Sect, but then the Lightning Elemental’s unique prowess made sense to her. Still, Mo Mingzhi’s words woke her up from the sense of distance that she was feeling towards them.

She was always suspicious of this image of closeness that everyone possessed, suspecting it was fake, but then, his actions towards her, revealing his secrets like now, made her truly understand that this wasn’t fake. She had been afraid that what if all they showed her wasn’t true somewhere in her mind, but that feeling finally left her psyche, allowing him to look at these people in a new light.

They were as honest and genuine as they appeared to be.
