Divine Emperor Of Death Chapter 259

"Yes, I am looking for my elder sister because I believe she is missing... I want to get deep into this matter but I realize now that my cultivation is not up to the mark..." Fiora said sarcastically, mocking herself for her weakness.
At the same time, Davis and Natalya noticed something abnormal about her statement.
"You believe? That means you don't know what happened to your elder sister?" Davis pointed it out.
Fiora nodded her head in frustration, "Yes, no matter how I think about it, it doesn't make sense."
"What do you mean?" Natalya who was standing on the side asked with an eager tone but then she stiffened.
She abruptly received a Soul Transmission from Davis, who was reprimanding her for interfering with the conversation.
She instantly panicked and shut her mouth, thinking that she had done something wrong.
Davis originally thought that her interference will make Fiora to be cautious but it seemed like it had the opposite effect.
Although Fiora looked at Natalya suspiciously, she continued, "Two months ago, a certain powerful person came to our residence, seeking my elder sister to become his disciple."
"My parents immediately rejected his proposal since we're going to another city, but we saw her leaving with that person of her volition the same day."
Her face withered and her expression dulled.
"My parents cursed her to not return, especially my father, who was badly hurt by her selfish behavior at that time."
She gave off a weak chuckle and added, "Even I saw her leaving with a wide smile on her face as if the only one who was worth following would be that person who invited her to be his disciple."
Sighing gently, she continued, "Then a week later, that person came back to our residence and placed an urn on the floor, telling that his disciple died from not being able to cultivate the fire cultivation manual he had her inherit."

"My father out of rage attacked him but instantly realized it was useless. That person was too powerful and looking out for our safety, our father immediately took us into hiding."
"My parents mourned for her death but I wasn't ready to believe the bullshit that person spoke! There is something obviously wrong! Even now, my sister could be alive somewhere, held captive by that person."
"I need to find her before its too late..." Fiora clenched her teeth, her small fists trembling in helplessness.
Natalya was stunned. She couldn't believe what her little sister had said. She immediately wanted to refute but was held back by Davis's Soul Transmission again.
A cold sweat broke out behind her back, thinking that she had almost revealed her identity.
"I see, that person, could you... identify?" Davis asked.
Fiora nodded her head in happiness. This meant that this person was willing to help find her elder sister, and to her, this couldn't get any better.
Sadly, little did she know that her elder sister was beside her the whole time.
She took out a paper from her spatial ring and drew out the facial features of that person.
Handing it over to Davis politely, she returned to sit on the red-colored mattress.
Davis looked at the figure and narrowed his eyes. He had no idea who this person was but he had his doubts flare when he showed that portrait to Natalya using a sleight of hand....
Natalya lightly shook her head, indicating that this wasn't the person who took her when her father sold her.
He thought for a moment before saying, "I need your help if we are going to find your elder sister..."
Fiora's face lit up in happiness, "Tell me, what should I do..."

"Get your parents to draw a portrait of that person and bring it here tomorrow, it will do. You can leave now..."
Fiora turned confused thinking whether if that's all that she needed to do but she still nodded her head and promptly left the residence.
After she left, Natalya muttered to herself in disbelief, "I really didn't do anything she said, she is lying... Yes, she is lying."
She looked at Davis and uttered, "Please believe me! What I said is the truth! I saw my father clearly selling me to that man. Even my mother and Fiora were laughing behind my backs!"
Natalya was afraid that this young man wouldn't believe her anymore and abandon her thinking that she was a deceitful woman.
Davis raised his hand, "Calm down! I believe you..."
"Phew..." Natalya heaved a sigh of relief when she heard his words.
Davis shook his head, "But I think your little sister isn't lying either. Her expression was too real to fake it..."
Natalya turned confused, "But..."
If what her sister said was the truth then wouldn't what she said turn out to be false?
"I don't think she was lying or is your little sister a devious person who can lie without even batting an eye?"
"I... No..." Natalya bit her lips.
Davis nodded as he felt the same from their short interaction, "Don't worry. I still believe you and I partly believe in her words too."
"If both of you are speaking the truth, then there is obviously something wrong with both of your stories... If we were to figure that out, we can clear the misunderstanding."
Natalya blinked as she took off the mask, "Misunderstanding? What do you mean?"
"Since you can't recognize the portrait, then most likely there is something mysterious about that man. I'm starting to think that he is skilled in the law of Illusions..."
Davis mused that the mysterious man had either achieved elementary proficiency or Level One Intent in the Law of Illusions.
Illusions were categorized to be part of the Primary Laws, and below the Fifth Stage, all Illusion Laws were at the elementary level. Only when a person reaches the Fifth Stage would they be able to comprehend and improve the laws to Level One Intent and above.
"Illusions!" Natalya's eyes widened in realization! If so, then the different scenes they witnessed could be explained!
But then she noticed the problem, "How are you going to verify that the scenes we all saw are Illusions?"
Davis smiled at her question, "Didn't I ask your little sister to bring the portraits drawn by your parents to me tomorrow? Although simple, if the faces you all saw were different, then it is naturally an illusion..."
Natalya widened her eyes in realization. So, that's why he had asked her little sister to do such an absurd task.
