Chapter 1602 – Cruel
Davis found that she was the receptionist in the Roxley Auction House instead of her little sister Rina Roxley.
Nevertheless, once Young Davis obtained the invitation for the underground auction, he left. He did attend the underground auction and sold the materials and goods he and Isabella plundered from others in battle. However, they encountered trouble in the form of overbearingness, and he was not powerful enough to handle the complete consequences of the trouble at the moment, and neither was Isabella.
But a masked Tina Roxley suddenly appeared out of nowhere and resolved the trouble for him.
On the other hand, Davis kept his eyes wide open despite the blurry vision.
Tina Roxley’s actions to be able to quell the underground auction house did heavily impress him as it was a major influence on Young Davis, but Natalya didn’t seem to be here, and neither was Drake Blackburn. Although it did make sense, considering that he met them a few years ago in his timeline. Still, he was worried about Natalya and Fiora. Perhaps, they were never targeted in the first place and were peacefully living in their home?
However, he did notice someone buying most of the slaves only to probably free them in the end, which was very similar to Drake Blackburn. After all, Drake Blackburn took similar actions in his world.
Nevertheless, wanting to see that beautiful, considerate, and bountiful receptionist in the Roxley Family Auction House, Young Davis went and met her again on a later date, boldly calling her out to thank her.
Tina Roxley ended up walking out with him to an alleyway, not because she was naive, but she had her numerous methods to defend herself in case if anything happened, only to see him take off his mask and clasp his hands.
"I, Davis Loret, am very grateful for your help. I was unable to talk to you at that moment since I wanted to hide my identity, so I came to meet you and called you out to here. If there is anything I can do for you, I will. Please don’t hesitate as I have to return the gratitude I have received."
"Really, there’s no need..."
Follow on NovᴇlEnglish.nᴇtTina Roxley was taken aback for a moment by his youthful countenance before she giggled while Young Davis dropped his clasped hands before he beat his chest.
"Right, but you can still count on me for anything. I’m not a person who doesn’t know how to reciprocate the gratitude shown."
"If you say so..."
Tina Roxley shot him a complicated smile as she saw him leave, wondering if he had come just to say that while her own eyes were taken aback as he looked so handsome. It wasn’t anything significant in her life as making people owe favors was common for her in order to protect herself.
However, she found him interesting since he was a youth who appeared younger than her. Moreover, how could he be so righteous, making trouble in the underground auction? These questions remained in her mind as she wanted to know him more but didn’t have the time to do so.
But, she met him again, again and again. Sometimes, he initiated it, and sometimes, she initiated it.
At this point, it was obvious to her that this Davis Loret was low-key courting her, and she was also beginning to feel a bit of affection towards him for no apparent reason other than finding excitement within these isolated encounters where no one would save her if Davis suddenly decided to pounce on her.
However, Davis was so sincere and refined than the men that she had seen that she found solace in him. Before long, their hands accidentally touched each other, taking shape in the form of holding hands together for a while. Their faces were full of shyness, indicating that it might be the sign of first love.
Young Davis was on cloud nine after that day, but he willingly received a kiss from Tina Roxley on his lips the next week. That incident completely took away the crush from his heart and put her in that place.
He even brought Isabella to introduce Tina Roxley to her. While Tina Roxley appeared shocked to see Isabella’s beauty, Isabella’s expression imperceptibly twitched, although she didn’t seem to say anything but approved of their relationship with a deep smile on her face.
Subsequently, their fun days in the Xuan Empire’s Capital continued.
Davis looked at this as though he was watching a slice of life rom-com, but that was only until Tina Roxley finally saw her little sister Rina Roxley’s corpse after she committed suicide from being violated by her own father.
All hell broke loose at that moment.
Tina Roxley stabbed her father out of fury, and failing to kill him, she escaped. The experts of the Roxley Family all tried to hunt her down.
Young Davis came to defend Tina Roxley, ready to face numerous experts of the Roxley Family while Isabella also helped. A battle ensued as they easily decimated the Roxley Family’s forces. Young Davis killed Tina Roxley’s Father with his spear while Isabella severed the head of the Roxley Family’s Ancestor.
However, due to the negative attention received, they were forced to run out of the capital, and Young Davis didn’t leave the battered Tina Roxley alone as he brought her with him.
That same night, while Young Davis was trying to console Tina Roxley, they willingly fell on the bed, becoming one together.
Davis’s just closed his eyes as his vision completely blurred, purely concentrating on the touch as if it was himself who was doing the deed. There was no sexual ecstasy in him, but he vaguely felt good. However, his thoughts were still clear, trying to understand the sequence of events and the outcome in his life.
He did see Tina Roxley’s actions and mused that this was what she must’ve seen in her divination before being almost punished by a heavenly tribulation. But in this life, she didn’t seem to have seen her future and, consequently, could not save her sister from suffering a tragic fate.
However, Davis finally came to know why he had these strange feelings for Tina Roxley.
If this isn’t it, then what is?
He freaking made her his woman and first wife in this life! No wonder that image of sleeping with her came to his mind after breaking through into the King Soul Stage, along with the other images of the Loret Empire’s Capital falling and Isabella taking care of him.
Follow on Novᴇl-Onlinᴇ.cᴏmBut why did these images appear at that time? Was it because Fallen Heaven wanted to show him something, or was it also involuntary as it claimed innocence?
Certainly, he didn’t think it was possible for him to recall his unadulterated fate on his own.
Nevertheless, this life continued when he thought that it would end as Tina Roxley told him that she didn’t know what happened after they slept together in one of their many talks when he made some time to visit her.
Young Davis confessed his love for her and said that he wanted to marry her while Tina Roxley wholeheartedly accepted, treating him as her everything as she always stuck to him.
Isabella was starting to become restless. Davis could see that, but the Young Davis couldn’t. In the end, Isabella stated that she wanted to go back to the Grand Sea Continent and Davis quickly agreed, stating that it was the perfect place for him to marry Tina Roxley.
Isabella made a comical pikachu face, but she was unable to take back her words. In a few days, they left the Fifty-Two Territories and returned to the Grand Sea Continent.
However, Davis’s non-existent heart skipped a beat as regret completely overtook his emotions.
Why?
Because the Young Davis’s heart was shattered, hearing that his little sister, Clara committed suicide before she could be dishonored by a prince of the Ruth Empire some time ago.
His expression was full of disbelief. At first, he thought it was those bullies playing a prank on him. No, he hoped that they were playing a wicked prank. However, no matter how he searched, he couldn’t find Clara anywhere but only found her ashes in a container.
Her cheerful smile and enthusiastic personality appeared in his mind, but at the same time, when he imagined how she must’ve felt all alone with him not being for her as always as he should, his heart shook as he felt miserable. His mother’s last words to him, to protect his little sister no matter what, flashed past his mind when suddenly...
"...!"
Young Davis’s mind became corrupted as his sanity shattered. The hatred that he sealed in his heart after being treated well by Isabella completely returned as he went on a killing spree, massacring most of the cultivators who rushed to stop him while breaking through the formations activated to entrap him before he finally killed that prince!
