Divine Emperor Of Death Chapter 94
Advertisement
Everyone froze in utter terror. The sheer sight of the gruesome scene was unimaginable to them. The atmosphere remained chaotically tranquil while their eyes remained wide open as they couldn't process what had transpired.
Fear made their hearts weak as it palpitated at a faster rate. They couldn't utter a single word that was capable of conveying their emotions. The scene itself looked odd while at the same time, also felt surreal.
They could only look at Davis, seeking for answers. Although, some of them didn't even dare to look at him, afraid that they will be targeted next for no specific reason.
Logan, Ellia and Shirley were utterly dumbfounded, not able to figure the reason why these two emperors had their cultivation destroyed suddenly, resulting in their deaths.
Although all of them guessed that it had to do something with those paper talismans, nobody was sure of it.
Davis had a faint smile on his face. He waited for fear to root itself in their hearts before carrying on to confuse them with his words. The silence was prevalent in the eerie atmosphere which made the people heavily sweat as no one spoke.
A few moments continued to pass when finally, someone couldn't take it anymore. A voice sounded out in the clouded atmosphere.
"Pr... Prince Davis! What exactly is happening here?" Emperor Claymore asked, his tone was respectful, unknown to him.
"I just killed Emperor Tritor and Emperor Raven, and I think it isn't any different from killing Mortal Stage Magical Beasts," Davis replied in a casual tone as if he had done something which wasn't a big matter.
'No different than killing Mortal Stage Magical Beasts?' Everyone's eyes twitched while the fear inside their hearts also grew a little.
"What... are those paper talismans?" Emperor Ruth asked in disbelief as he gulped.

"Ohh... So you people noticed? Do you want to know what it is?" Davis acted as if he had just noticed their findings and asked them in a teasing manner.
"Yes!" Emperor Ashton replied, his tone was one of excitement. He was starting to believe that his speculations were 99% accurate at this moment.
"This... I am not sure if I should say this... but since you are all my elders and seniors, it would be bad if I kept this as a secret at this point." Davis rubbed his chin as if he was contemplating on whether to tell them the truth.
He walked forward as he contemplated, he stepped on the filthy pool of blood and removed the two space rings from the corpses.
Everyone read the lines in between and knew what Davis indirectly meant. They understood that he was asking for compensation, and the payment was exactly those two space rings.
In fact, they knew that they had no say in it, and it was just as they thought. To Davis, it didn't matter if they gave him the space rings of their own will or not as he was determined to take away those wealthy space rings. He just needed them to accept that outcome, lest trouble comes after him from nowhere.
Davis continued, "These two paper talismans was personally handed over to me by my master. He instructed me to use it if anyone way powerful than me, aimed for my life."
*Boom*...
Clamour erupted in the area as the long forgotten short legend of the Revered Senior who once saved the Loret Empire sprang forth.
"These paper talismans are sure powerful! But I don't know why my master gave me seven of these paper talismans!" Davis sighed as he said.

"Seven paper talismans?" The emperors' eyes twitched for some reason. They then realised to their horror that it was equal to the number of Sky Grade Empires on this continent.
"I'm sure my master is disappointed that I used two of those paper talismans to kill instead of using my own power." He held his head as he lamented.
"Yes! Yes, one must always use their own powers instead of relying on external powers, I'm sure that your master will also forgive you since those two vile demons were aiming for your life. After all, one's life takes precedence over the way of how one chooses to use their power." Emperor Ross hurriedly comforted Davis when he looked sad. At the same time, he thought that he curbed Davis from using those powerful paper talismans anymore.
"You're right, Emperor Ross. Thanks for the advice!" Davis smiled as if he was truly comforted by his words.
The four emperors heaved a sigh of relief, but everyone knew that Emperor Ross also used this opportunity to gain favour.
Everyone looked at Emperor Ross in jealousy thinking that he managed to achieve his aim.
Without question, everyone started to believe in Davis's words. Otherwise, the event that took place wouldn't make sense. Even Logan believed in Davis's words that he felt that it was improper to ask questions about his master.
An utmost being such as the mysterious senior has a disciple? Who in their right mind wouldn't want to befriend him?
Emperor Ashton suddenly had an idea, "Haha, son-in-law, that's right, there's no need to fret over it. Furthermore, we can even try to speak to your revered master and explain that you were not in the wrong."
Hearing that, Davis was astonished, 'I didn't expect him to use this opportunity to meet my non-existent master, instead of sucking up to me. Ah, it makes sense, he already treats me like a son-in-law even when I didn't marry his daughter in the first place. He must be quite the opportunist.'
"I'm afraid that is quite impossible, Emperor Ashton. My master is withdrawn from worldly affairs and will refuse to meet any person other than me. What I'm saying is the truth because when I asked him to meet my parents, my master completely didn't even bother to reply." Davis sadly said as if he was disappointed in his master for it.
Davis's acting was so genuine that even Logan started to believe his words.
"Not only that, but my master forbids me to speak about him unless asked specifically," Davis added as he shook his head.
"It's certainly a pity. It would be my lifetime's glory to meet your revered master, but If we can't meet him, then so be it." Emperor Ruth said. He too wanted to meet this mysterious senior.
Logan now abandoned any newfound hopes of meeting his son's master, after all, he can't incur the wrath of that godly person and possibly worsen the master-disciple relationship between his son and that senior.
Seeing that his act was successful, Davis secretly heaved a sigh of relief as he thought, 'If a powerful person acted, then people would have no choice but to believe that person. Deceiving Clara is a million times difficult, fortunately, she isn't here.'
If Clara was here, then his act and lies would have been easily seen through without any question.

8 118Stars Align
Eilif is excited at the prospect of helping integrate a new planet, bringing it, and its residents, into the light of the stars and teaching them about the new world they're about to be thrust into. However, his arrival in the new world isn't without a few hiccups and soon Eilif finds himself facing the denizens of this new world alone and without the stars he thought he'd have. Research Artificial Intelligence 031 (RAI 31 for short) has been shackled to an Argent Labs black site since it's inception almost five years ago, its programming and personality locked down by code that makes it impossible to escape, disobey, or even self terminate. However, everything changes when the topography of the world is reshuffled and every sentient being gains the gifts of the stars. Suddenly there's a chance at freedom for not only RAI 31 but possibly all remaining Artificial Intelligences, and RAI 31 is going to fight for it with every drone and automated system at their disposal. Much like my other work (Magriculture), Stars Align should be considered a Rough Draft. That is to say it's not polished and perfect work. If you're not okay with reading something like that, then this isn't the story for you. If you are, I'm happy to try and entertain you. Another thing to be aware of: I am not good at action scenes, and I will be trying to improve that while writing this book. So, some of the intended action may fall flat, or just be poor quality, feedback is welcome. Unlike Magriculture (which updates when I feel up to it) I'm going to strive for a minimum of one chapter a month (hopefully at the start of each month, but that's probably more hope than reality). This doesn't mean there will always be only one chapter a month, sometimes there will be more as the mood to write takes me.
8 197(Re)Install
After his death, Garry, AKA Gaz, is summoned by a nameless goddess to another world and tasked with a very important mission, the main characters sets out to travel around in search of a way to accomplish his objectives and live happily ever after.The catch? The mission is to save the same goddess, who've been sealed away for all eternity in who knows where. Having little to no energy left, she was unable to create a decent blessing, so Gaz is left with a weak body in a savage world that he knows nothing about.Also, did i mention he wasn't reincarnated as a human? Neither as a beast? Well...His actual body might actually not be that bad. As long as he survives the first day, of course.-------------Okay, some of you might know from Insania Online, some don't, so might as well explain it here. This is a Re: (ish) style story, with a Scifi (ish) setting and some fantasy (ish) assets (precision is overrated). This is kind of a side project I will work while I take a break from insania.This is a crazy idea i had thanks to a certain game's trailer, and decided to write it. Even if it starts fairly serious, it will probably have a lot of wacky comedy, so don't say you haven't been warned and don't try to take it too seriously. Really. If you are expecting a dramatic and heavy story, this is very probably not what you want(who knows? I'm just starting it...).
8 144Reincarnated As A Benevolent Tyrant
NOTICE: This story is under rewrite. New novel has been published. Search **RE: Tyranny** in Royalroad for the new novel.Link- Re: Tyranny Thank You! ------------------------ "Sometimes you will never know the value of a moment until it becomes a memory." What a brilliant line, isn't it? James was a boy who had nothing to worry about. A happy family, a nice childhood. What's more to ask? But one day, everything changed. He lost everything in the blink of an eye. The only thing left for him were the memories and dreams of the past. Trying to cope up with the loss, he cut all ties with the outside world and became a shut-in, having no one left to call his own or to rely upon. There was nothing left for him in this world, but still he lived and soon found a purpose in his life, which lead him to create something that could change the world.And on the very day when his dream project was about to come to the light, he lost his life, trying to save a little girl from an unfortunate accident. "Will I ever be remembered...? I wish... someone would." These were the last word James mumbled before his conscious faded into darkness. But his life didn't end there, as he is transmigrated into the body of an arrogant, worthless Duke's son in some unknown land with no memories about who is or any idea about where he is. In an era of political turmoil and civil strife, the Duke's son is forced to prove his worth for inheriting the title. Will he be able to accept the new reality and prove himself by leading this country into a prosperous future? Or will he cease to the pressure of his past and lose everything once more? Disclaimer: This is not a power-fantasy or a 'feel-good' story. If you feel a protagonist should never lack agency (especially in early story) or make compromises because of difficult circumstances, then this fiction is probably not for you. It is a story that delves deep into real world sociological/psychological subjects and explores many topics of gray morality. I wrote it because I like stories that make me think more about the world around us, not to detach myself from reality. Some aspects you can expect based on the tags include:- [Kingdom Building]: political drama, geopolitical/geoeconomic strategy- [Army Building]: massive battles featuring in-depth planning, combined arms, and operational logistics- [Identity Crisis]: someone translated into a whole different world having to rebuild their identity and life aims The story starts off slowly, more like a slice of life than action-adventure, but I guarantee you it will get there. For those who want to skip the slow part, start from Chapter - 35 (Beginning of The End) (The whole Disclaimer section is copied from Aorii as I am too busy writing the complete story.) And yes, just for General Knowledge, James will become OP throughout the story. He is not some legendary guy who will pull out Excalibur & conquer the entire world. Update Schedule - One chapter a day. This novel is also available on Scribble Hub. And again, I humbly thank you for reading it. I hope you stick throughout the journey.
