Divine Emperor of Death

Davis’s hand that was on Natalya’s nape moved to her soft willowy waist. He grabbed as his fingers and palm naturally sunk in as if it met no resistance.

"Ahn~"

Natalya involuntarily moaned as she did not expect it! She moved her palms and cupped her face as a crimson hue appeared over her cheeks.

She wanted to instantly hide in a hole from experiencing this sheer embarrassment!

"Right before you shout in anger, you might want to think carefully about what to say next!"

Agis Stirlander gritted his teeth as he half stood up.

Blood finally leaked from his mouth in a line as he kept suppressing his undulations even though he wanted to just smash Davis with his fists, making him into meat paste.

However, with his granddaughter her hostage like this; vulnerable, he could only hold himself back.

He licked his lips and swallowed back the blood that reached till his throat and sat back as an extreme thud sounded, almost breaking the floor.

Natalya became extremely worried but she still did not speak out of turn.

And then...

"Sigh... I am willing to surrender, just let my granddaughter go..."

Agis Stirlander’s expression became very ugly! However, his lower lips quivered like an old man who looked like he lost all he possessed. He stared at Davis who seemed to be still holding his granddaughter.

Looking at her ashamed expression that was hidden by her palms, his battered heart couldn’t take it anymore.

"Last month, information arrived that Alchemist Scythe along with his entourage of more than twenty people was last spotted at the Territory Gate, leading to the Tripartite Alliance Territory. The information also had the fact that Alchemist Scythe allegedly escaped from a Law Sea Stage Expert according to witnesses..."

"However, it couldn’t be verified but..."

"Upon further investigation that occurred this month, new information fell into my ears just a few days ago that Alchemist Scythe could have perhaps hosted the Cloud Spring Mercenaries Leader Daniuis and his family who is being targeted by the Tripartite Alliance among his entourage."

"Although these are all baseless rumors, there are enough suspicions to be cast on to investigate the authenticity of this news..."

’Grandpa...’ Natalya became heartened as she removed her palms and cast a look with moist eyes and quivering lips.

For her, he gave up instead of battling to the death. She more or less knew the past of her grandfather. He was precisely faced with a life and death situation in the past but he chose to battle to the death, only to be saved by the Third Prince instead.

Such a person had let go of his convictions because of his granddaughter; her. She couldn’t help but feel extremely moved as she bit her lips.

Meanwhile, Davis nodded his head to Agis Stirlander’s information reveal. This was more believable and it looks like Elder Seylas hasn’t slipped up his mouth yet.

Judging by the content of the information, the Third Prince who seemed to be getting information from Agis Stirlander still didn’t seem to have received this latest information yet.

That meant, there was no danger to him! The previous information just led to a dead end, unless of course if they could find evidence that...

"Heh! Were you looking for information that connected me and Alchemist Scythe as the same person?"

Agis Stirlander’s body shook as he replied, "... Yes!"

Davis curved his lips.

There was no need to look for this information in the Tripartite Alliance Territory since it was just with him the whole time. Such information could be extracted from Natalya if Agis Stirlander were stern but it was obvious how much he loved his granddaughters.

However, with this, Agis Stirlander had basically redeemed himself from instant death.

However, Davis’s eyes flashed slightly red. He blinked before the vague glow disappeared.

’His lifespan is still the same, he will die in around two months...’

Feeling pity, he moved his hand that was on Natalya’s waist and patted her back two times like he was sending a kid off.

"Grandpa!"

Natalya instantly closed the distance and sat beside Agis Stirlander to check his injuries as she grabbed his pulse. Due to being well versed in Body Tempering Cultivation, she quickly found two ruptures in his meridian pathway.

Essence energy leaked from the ruptured meridian pathway which in turn made his blood flow in a chaotic manner.

Agis Stirlander shook his hand, "Don’t worry, I will be fine."

"Grandpa, I..."

"Shhh... You don’t have to say anything. It was grandpa who got you into this mess..." He sighed.

Natalya bit her lips and cast a glance at Davis, prompting her grandfather to look as well.

Davis saw both of their expressions. One pleaded to not doubt her grandfather anymore and the other had wariness fill his face.

’Ah... As expected of a family which has experienced calamity coincidentally... They’re not willing to give up each other easily...’ Davis took a deep breath and just before he could speak, he was interrupted.

"You haven’t cast any strange techniques on my granddaughter, right?"

"Hahaha!" Davis abruptly laughed.

His laughter made Agis Stirlander’s heart skip a beat as he shuddered while his pupils froze.

"Why would I do that?" Davis chuckled.

Agis Stirlander’s stifled breath came out as he looked at Davis in confusion.

"W-What do you mean!?" He asked as Davis’s words just made him even more suspicious.

Wouldn’t he be normally killed by now!? Even if his granddaughter was spared, he was sure that he had been branded a death sentence!

Davis extended his hand and beckoned.

Natalya bit her lips and stood up as she knew that it was time. She felt it in an instinctive manner that Davis was going to reveal their affair. Although the timing couldn’t be worse, it was now or never!

She took a determined step forward and walked.

Agis Stirlander became pale once he looked at his granddaughter walk over to Davis with brisk steps. It was as if she was controlled by him!

"You... No, Natalya! Come back!" Agis Stirlander scurried to stand up.

Just when he was about to give her a chase, Davis arrived beside her and interlocked his hand with her.

Agis Stirlander abruptly stopped as his eyes widened!

"Fortunately for you, my second wife pleaded for your life, so you get to live..." Davis pursed his lips.

"You! Nonsense!"

Agis Stirlander clenched his teeth, not willing to believe the thought that emerged in his mind.

"Grandpa, I became his woman..." Natalya uttered.

Agis Stirlander’s face became blank for a few seconds before shock painted his face. His arm subconsciously lifted up as he pointed his index finger at Natalya.

His arm trembled while his finger shook before his expression changed as he completely recognized the fact!

"Y-You! How can you b-be like this!?"

Natalya heard his tone that sounded like he had been betrayed by her. She felt pangs of ache in her heart which made her feel wretched. She instantly wanted to prove that she didn’t betray him in any way.

"Grandpa, I..."

"S-Shut up!" Agis Stirlander’s lips quivered as he clenched his teeth.

He was heavily suppressing his undulations from flaring up because if he let it all out now, there was a chance that he would faint from all that pressure that simultaneously exploded within his body.

Natalya clenched her fists as she finally couldn’t take it anymore!

"Grandpa! He is none other than Alchemist Scythe! The person I love!!!" She screamed as her eyes became moist.
