Divine Emperor of Death

"I've spoken to all of them. They and our children will be protected by hidden experts during this journey of ours, which makes me able to travel without worry." Logan replied with a peaceful expression on his face.

Claire simply nodded her head and didn't continue with that topic.

Logan inwardly chuckled as he could see that she was worrying for them in her own way.

Even so, he still could not understand why Claire would even worry about them in the first place after all that between them.

He couldn't help but feel that his love and married life was a mess, becoming the sole reason for him to curb himself and his women from giving birth to his descendants even though he had physical interactions with all of them at some point.

The sun rose to the peak and stood tall over the heads of the people in the Loret Empire.

Two figures were relaxing on the bed as they sat together with one of them resting their head over the other's shoulder.

This room was none other than Davis's room and the two figures were Davis and Evelynn.

Davis opened his eyes and sensed that it was time. They had previously settled on this exact time where the sun hangs over their head to set out to the First Layer.

Evelynn also moved away from him as she stood up. She was dressed up in common purple robes rather than the royal ones she wore these few years.

She was clear that dressing extravagantly on top of being voluptuous will invite trouble, so she unhesitatingly chose to be compromising and not give trouble to the group.

Davis also chose to wear a purple colored robe that was common without much design, nor patterned.

He was fine with dressing up extravagantly since he knew that most of them at the Tripartite Alliance wouldn't bother about their mere low-quality clothes even though it made them look majestic, but that wouldn't be the case for women.

Anything that made them look good automatically invited trouble, even if it wasn't their intention to create trouble.

He only felt that dressing extravagantly while his wife looked like a commoner as if she wasn't related to him in any way, didn't sit well with him, so he also choose to wear common clothes this time.

The reason why he was obsessed over these small details lied within his past where he chose to treat his other half with utmost sincerity in the future.

If it weren't for his own convictions and principles holding him back, it would have been much easier for him let himself loose on the mortal world, claiming all the beauties for himself with the power of Death Book.

Soon, Davis and Evelynn arrived at the top of the Royal Castle where the park existed.

There were a few figures who attracted his attention. He smiled at them and looked at a certain person whose attention was absorbed by the flowers placed in rows over the ledges.

"Princess Isabella, you're here..." Davis greeted.

Princess Isabella smiled serenely before she moved her gaze to look at Davis, "This architecture and scenery give me a peaceful sensation. When I asked one of the tending maids who took care of the flowers about who designed this type of architecture, she said that it was the Crown Prince, is it true?"

Davis nodded his head before slightly bowing his head as a form of politeness, "Thank you for joining with us in this journey. With your help, our path to the Alstriem Family Territory will be even safer."

Princess Isabella shook her head and smiled, "I'm obliged that you all have allowed me to join your party at the request of my father. In any case, joining together against the outsiders, we will have much chance to survive and prevail."

Davis nodded his head in agreement.

Princess Isabella had personally experienced how difficult it was to survive alone in the first few years she had entered the First Layer.

Even with her Sixth Stage Body Tempering Cultivation Base at that time, she had to run away from the powerhouses who came at her that time.

She guessed that it was because of the energy undulations caused by the independent spatial gateway activating for the first time.

She believed that it was the case since the experts came flocking in her direction like they had discovered some treasure. She had no choice but to be low profile and leave the desert through the underground, below the dense sand of the Desolate Plains.

The only reason she chose to compromise by moving underground was that she had comprehended Level Two Intent in Earth Laws by that time, and used that to stay hidden along with the Earth attributed energy present in the surface.

Otherwise, she knew that she would've got caught by the senses of the Seventh Stage Cultivators who came at that time to search for the non-existent treasures.

Now, even though she reached the Seventh Stage, she dared not to underestimate the cultivators there and choose to compromise with the idea of her royal father.

It was two weeks before, the time when she had come out of her seclusion which lasted for more than 3 years. She had decided to venture out to the First Layer again to pursue her cultivation path.

Her father had sincerely advised her to travel with Davis since he seemingly had a backer behind him; the mysterious senior.

She considered for a while and then inwardly gave up thinking. She straight away contacted Davis about collaboration and it turned out that they were also leaving the Grand Sea Continent in two weeks.

This suited her agenda, so she chose to travel with them even though all of them were at least more than a major stage lower than her.

In any case, she felt that she would only need to endure for a few years until Davis had increased his cultivation to the Seventh Stage.

In the meantime, she had planned to even out her other two Cultivation Systems for the sole purpose of maintaining equilibrium in her body.

It was not too healthy and safe as a cultivator to have a huge difference in cultivation stages since the lower-tiered energy of another cultivation system would not be able to handle the backlash of higher tiered energy of another cultivation system in case of an event of cultivation deviation.

Furthermore, with Davis helping her with Soul Forging Cultivation, she felt that she could improve her that cultivation system by leaps and bounds. This was in exchange for offering her protection services to Davis and his family members.

This was the condition that they had both agreed upon, and decided to travel together after a few hours of discussion that was held two weeks ago.

In a few seconds, the three figures who had previously garnered his attention approached him with a sad yet smiling expression on their faces.

"Brother!" Diana came forward as she grasped his hands with a cheerful expression. At the same time, two more figures soared towards them from the air and landed beside them.

It was Logan and Claire.

Davis patted Diana's head and spoke with a gentle smile, "We are leaving the Grand Sea continent, be a good girl and take care of your elder sister and little brother. Only you can do it, Diana."

Diana heavily nodded and took a step back, making way for the emotional Edward. He came forward with a stiff expression on his face and declared, "Brother, I will protect my two sisters!"

"Haha, you will! But for that, you have to get stronger in the future, alright?"

Edward vigorously nodded his head, holding back his tears from falling. He couldn't help but run to his mother's embrace before bawling out his rather frail emotions.

Davis smiled and turned to look at Clara, "You're not going to say anything?"

Clara shook her head, "Separation is just temporary. I would soon follow you all the moment I breakthrough the Law Manifestation Stage since I have the object needed to connect to the independent spatial gateway."

Davis's pupils dilated. Logan and Claire all froze.

Davis extended his hand and spoke with a sharp gaze, "Hand it over..."

They had actually forgotten about this...
