Divine Emperor of Death

Once they entered the inner courtyard, Davis spotted a young man who looked similar to Agis Stirlander.

Agis Stirlander seemed to have noticed Davis’s doubt, "Haha! Let me introduce you to my son, Igor Stirlander!"

Davis found the person in front of him similar but to be on the safe side, his eyes imperceptibly flashed red before it returned normal.

’It seems that he truly is Agis Stirlander’s son...’ Davis mused and even saw that this person’s lifespan lasted only till half a year, the same as Agis Stirlander.

’Could it be that this two father and son get killed by me in half a year?’ He jested it to be the case but then he considered that it was also possible that they could be killed due to the changing seats of the throne in half a year.

At least, that is what it looked like with the current information he possessed with him as the timing looked impeccable.

Igor Stirlander clasped his hand. His eyes were sharp but his nose and lips along with the facial lining made him look amiable.

"Igor Stirlander greets Esteemed Alchemist Davis." He slightly bowed.

Davis returned the greeting.

Then walked into the residence and sat in a room like three old men, discussing topics ranging from the death rate to the rate of children being born till it became night, almost for three hours!

’Wait... This isn’t supposed to be like this!’

Davis inwardly screamed.

Where were the traps?

Where were the allegedly strong experts who were supposedly hidden to ambush him? Why was there no sign of them?

He had checked the entire residence but there seemed to be no one, no one suspicious other than the servants who seemed to mind their own business. Their cultivations were low, at the Second Stage and the Third Stage.

’Was I wrong?’ Davis felt a little disoriented.

He took back his soul sense since there seemed to be no point acting this cautious. If there were any assassins close by, he would know it through his physical sense as long it isn’t an Eighth Stage Expert.

Even then, he continued the conversation. However, inwardly he was thinking of using misdirection to inadvertently make them cough out what their plan is, and from there, he decided what he should do about these two.

To start with, he looked at Igor Stirlander who seemed to oblivious to the whole situation itself but Davis didn’t buy it, thinking that the other party was acting rather deep.

=======

Three women arrived outside the gates of the residence of Agis Stirlander. The gates opened as the servants bowed in respect.

One of them removed the veil they wore on their face and heaved a sigh, "Finally, I can get these off my face. Both Father and Grandpa rather have strict requirements for us to go out..."

Another woman who similarly wore a veil smiled as she removed her veil, "You shouldn’t say that Fiora. Both your father and grandpa are looking out for the safety of you two... If you were eyed by some local tyrant, things would get rather ugly. Although your grandpa can resolve it be personally intervening, if something untoward were to happen before he even arrived, then it is all for nothing."

"Besides, we shouldn’t give them more headaches... They’re looking out for our safety, not restricting us..." The last woman who rather had an attractive build with shaped curves spoke as she removed the veil.

"Ah! Mother! Elder Sister! I was just casually venting! There’s no need to start a lecture right in front of these people, no?" The woman who removed the veil after entering the residence looked around as she felt ashamed.

She looked at a maidservant who was approaching them and became a little disturbed that she was going to be made fun of in the future.

But contrary to her expectations, the maidservant said something else while clasping her hands and bowing her head.

"Master has advised me to tell young mistresses to head to the dining hall."

"Grandpa did?" Fiora asked.

The three then looked at each other before the mother nodded.

"I understand, you can go..."

The maidservant bowed once again and left the premises without making much of a sound.

======

"Sigh... If it weren’t for our benefactor who helped our two daughters... I would’ve lost them by now..." Igor Stirlander sighed as he lamented.

Davis felt like he was almost onto something while using Misdirection to slowly direct the conversation. He had indirectly invoked Igor Stirlander to tell about the recent difficult experiences he had faced. Just when he felt these words to stir a certain memory in his mind, a voice echoed.

"Grandpa, you called us?"

Davis turned to look at the female voice which echoed with a familiar tone in his mind.

The one who owned the voice also seemed to respond to the gaze of the newcomer as she looked back at him but her heart skipped a beat!

The world seemed to freeze!

... At least, in their perspectives.

"Ah! You three all came. Good! I’ll introduce you to this young man who is also an Alchemist just like your benefactor. You three wouldn’t believe it, but this young man is a Peak-Level Sky Grade Alchemist!" Agis Stirlander seemed to laugh excitedly.

However, his eyes that were like an eagle’s instantly took notice of their abnormality. At least, his first granddaughter seemed to be frozen in her tracks.

When his pupils looked at Davis, he mused, ’Mhm~ He seems momentarily at a loss for words but it could also be because of the arrival of three beauties. I’ll have to further see if there are any abnormalities...’

Davis smiled the next second and turned to look at the Agis Stirlander and Igor Stirlander, "You two seemed to not mention that you have three beauties in your residence?"

Igor Stirlander too proudly laughed, "The beauty in the middle is my wife, Rosalia Stirlander. The other two beauties, the one on the right with a powerful Body Tempering Cultivation is my first daughter, Natalya Stirlander and the one on the left with powerful Essence Gathering Cultivation is my second daughter, Fiora Stirlander."

"How are my two blossomed gems? The elder one hasn’t even reached 40 years old yet and the little one hasn’t even reached thirty years old yet! Aren’t they the best!?" He bragged.

Davis smiled back as if he couldn’t help but agree with Igor Stirlnader.

However...

’Natalya Stirlander? Shouldn’t it be more like Natalya Astoria!?’ Davis inwardly fumed but cast an approving gaze at Agis Stirlander.

It was no wonder Agis Stirlander claimed that his granddaughter drew his face in the past when they met for the first time.

’They’ve likely taken the name of their grandfather collectively after coming here... And the letter which was already tampered in Natalya’s residence in the Royal Xuan City... It all makes sense....’

Agis Stirlander had come back to the Royal Xuan City and saw that no one was there. Hence, he looked at the letter which Natalya left for Davis and then managed to make his way to the Pavlos City from where he moved them all to this Ethren City.

The sequences of events that would’ve possibly happened suddenly clicked on Davis.

Natalya who seemed to be frozen stiff came out of her reverie and saw that young alchemist she had seen in the past looked like the person in front of her. As an artist, she could see that if that person grew up, there were plenty of chances that he would possess an appearance like this!
