Divine Emperor Of Death Chapter 401

"In any case, I'm planning to return to that place when I reach the Seventh Stage to see if I could enter those mysterious spaces," Davis spoke as he elaborated his thoughts.
Indeed, he had certainly planned to visit the Third Layer again upon entering the Seventh Stage in any one of the cultivation systems. This way, he could find the secrets of Fallen Heaven or come in contact with that mysterious entity who is like an invisible ticking time bomb strapped behind his back.
Coming in contact with the former will result in an increase of his power while coming in contact with the latter would result in death, in the worst-case scenario.
"Ahh, we understand." Logan nodded his head, "We will accompany you at the time."
"Sure, but don't blame me if disaster strikes us in that mysterious space. It's not like we're touring around for sightseeing..."
Logan shut his mouth. He really wanted to explore the outer space in the Third Layer as he really liked adventures but his son had indirectly told him not to go since it might result in his death.
He sighed but then spoke to Claire, "What do you think?"
Claire came back to herself after hearing Davis's explanation, so she promptly nodded her head, "It's better if we listen to his words."
Logan and Claire looked at each other in a knowing light and spoke at the same time, "After all, he doesn't mean to harm us..."
Davis wasn't amused as he understood that they were taking a jab at him for his actions at that time, which almost made them battle to the death.
Although he felt slightly guilty, it remained that the only way to bring an end to that matter was to make things clear and move to the next stage.
His lips curled as he replied with a sneer, "You two weren't straightforward with your feelings, what else can I do other than forcefully making you two stick to each other again?"

"You two even made your children deeply worried and distressed because of this matter, do you two feel no shame?"
Logan and Claire looked away as they indeed had no words refute that fact.
Claire turned red from embarrassment but she then spoke, "You shouldn't have done that but instead talked to us..."
Davis had an exasperated expression on his face, "If soft methods worked, things wouldn't have developed to that point!"
Both Logan and Claire went silent, making the surrounding people who heard their argument turn cold.
Their son, the crown prince was actually the perpetrator? But they did nothing to him? The Crown Prince is that strong?
Such thoughts swirled around their head, and they made a silent note in their minds to not leak this information.
Davis sighed, "If you two still think I what I did was wrong, then go ahead and punish me. I'm willing to be punished..."
Claire panicked a little, "Davis, I... We didn't mean that. You are our son, how can we see you suffer!?"
Davis smiled on hearing his mother's words. It wasn't like he knew this would happen but was glad that they thought this way.
After all, there was a slight difference in how he had viewed them before learning the truth about his transmigration and after the unverified revelation.
"Enough mother, it's better if you punish me, so there are no hard feelings left between us. After all, I understand that I was the one who caused your heart demon to manifest and take possession of you..." Davis replied as he wholeheartedly thought this way.
In a way, the plan he devised could've gone wrong on so many levels, so to say the least, he was prepared for punishments that could affect his life in turn for their permanent reconciliation.
Claire bit her lips as she felt that she had made her son feel guilty of harming his own parents.

This, in turn, caused her to make a decision.
"Well then, I'll bestow your punishment," Claire spoke as she sat straight, reclining on the cold seat.
Logan turned stunned, so was Clara!
She instantly stepped forward and spoke, "Mother, if you're going to punish elder brother then I request to punish me as well. I was in the know and agreed with elder brother's plan!"
At the same time, Logan sent Claire a Soul Transmission, "Claire, what are you doing? Didn't we choose to forgive our son?"...
Claire raised her hand and stopped everyone from reacting while her gaze fell on Clara, "Very well, I will punish you after declaring Davis's punishment."
Logan strongly spoke with a frown revealed by his brows, "You can't do this!"
Claire turned to look at Logan, her eyes were devoid of hate but love.
Logan became stunned but then understood. He nodded his head to her inquisitive gaze, which seemed to ask him that if he trusted her.
Claire's lips curved as it turned into a smile. She looked at Davis and spoke, "Your punishment is to accompany us to the Alstriem Family Territory in the future."
Davis's mouth went slightly agape as he became stunned for a moment.
After a short pause, he smiled, "As you wish, mother."
At that time, when he removed the seal from his mother, she told him to not interfere with her revenge but now, she gave him a punishment to accompany them.
To Davis, it couldn't get any better as he could protect them with his powers, instead of secret tailing them to protect behind their backs like he originally planned.
This wasn't punishment but a restriction. In the future, he would have to travel with them together to bring Claire justice. This also had its pros and cons.
Claire then turned to look at Clara, "As for you, the punishment is to take care of the Royal Castle during our absence."
"Yes..." Clara blinked and then her face turned a little sad.
She had wanted to explore the First Layer sooner but now it looked like she was tasked with house-sitting; to hold down the fort.
"You have to especially take care of that troublemaker Diana, as well as give special care to Edward."
Clara nodded her head in agreement, but inwardly, she really felt that it was a punishment.
Logan laughed as he was satisfied with Claire's decision to 'punish' them.
He turned to look at Davis in an amused light, "Leaving that matter behind, you seemed to be getting ready for another marriage, I assume?"
Davis turned stunned as he saw his father wink, "What!?"
'Marriage? What the hell were they talking about?'
"What are you talking about, father?" He confusedly asked.
Logan's amused expression disappeared but was then replaced with a hint of goodwill, "Davis, you can't turn out to be like me. If you did it, then put an end to that matter by taking a clear decision. You can't hurt Evelynn just like how I inadvertently hurt Claire..."
"Wait, wait, wait! What did I do for you to even think like this?" Davis still confusedly spoke.
Logan turned confused as he blinked. His son who told him to take responsibility for his past mistakes denies responsibility now?
He didn't have a son like that...
He looked at Claire with a confused look on his face.
Claire on noticing Logan's expression, glanced at Davis to ask, "Davis, didn't you bring a woman named Mo Mingzhi into the Royal Castle?"
Davis narrowed his eyes and delivered, "Yes..."
At the same time, it suddenly dawned on him.
Claire blinked but then continued, "When the castle maids you assigned asked her about her identity, she seemed to reply that she is your woman with a proud expression on her face."
Davis's face twitched.
So that's what had happened.

Thief of Time
[Participant in the Royal Road Writathon challenge] Book 1: The Legend of Tot Synopsis: Claud Primus, a self-declared master thief, has a simple goal. To live forever. It's a rather easy task, for miraculous objects called lifestones are able to extend one's lifespan. These lifestones are best found in the treasuries of nobles, lovely resorts that Claud pays a visit to every so often. Unfortunately, one of those nightly visits go awry, and Claud is forced to escape with just a single lifestone and a box in hand. Normally, that's when things die down. The guards yawn, the gates close, and the night continues. But this time, the night isn't that forgiving. A dozen schemes result in the murder of someone important, and with a convenient scapegoat — Claud — at hand, it doesn't take long for him to be framed as a heinous criminal, wanted for the indirect murder of someone high up...and it just gets worse from there. Book 2: The Moon Lords' Rise Synopsis: As ordered chaos sweeps across Licencia, Claud leaves for Julan Barony, intent on making some profits there. Accompanied by the erstwhile heiress of Julan, a fellow member of the Moon Lords, the two plot against the barony's wealth...as well as a promise to bring about its downfall. Meanwhile, back home, the Moon Lords have busied themselves with digesting their gains. Eyes, however, are beginning to turn to this proverbial fish in a small pond. The fishermen are coming. When they cast their hook, what will Dia and the others do? Book 3: Murders under the Moons Synopsis: In the sleepy town of Nachtville, where Claud and Lily are forced to stop at, a set of nasty murders occurs. Victims scream out in fright, before a spear falls from the sky to end their suffering. Cowed and cautious, the master thief and his partner slink in the shadows, their objective that of home... A new task, however, has fallen on Dia. With a trusty helper at her side, she has to set off towards Nachtville itself, to solve the mystery Claud had abandoned. Faced with an enemy whose sole skillset is geared towards killing, how will they succeed? And what dark secrets will they find? Book 4: In the Dark of the Moons Synopsis: The year has ended. The four months of the full moons will soon be followed by two months of the new moons. Duke Istrel's ascension is around the corner. Amidst this political upheaval, Count Nightfall, Licencia's strongest defender, has been called away. The Moon Lords' largest task yet — to protect Licencia in the absence of its ruler — has begun. And yet, trouble is unrelenting. A distinguished personage, one that Claud fears, has been found dead in the county, his brains dug out and his body disemboweled. The inquisitors of the White Church have been dispatched to investigate and apprehend the murderer...as well as the person behind this puppet. Tormented by a call to fight, Claud directs his eyes out of the city, looking for the puppetmaster. Skulking in the shadows, the master thief will soon confront his greatest foe yet. A foe just like him. Book 5: Moonlit Tides and Darkened Seas Synopsis: A new era has begun. For the privileged, the sands of time dribble away for every passing moment, counting down to the arrival of a entity of mythical proportions. The night now harbours shadows and fog, and operatives of the Moons and the Dark clash in shadow. Claud, as usual, is investigating a spate of nasty disappearances in the city, but little does he know what these disappearances truly mean. And yet, a tide is coming. When it finally breaks, what will he do? Book 6: Secrets in Shadow Synopsis: The person behind a strike that would enter the annals of history flees his home, bringing with him the person closest to his heart into a new land and into a new world. Having left Istrel for the first time in his life, the two of them attempt to settle down in foreign lands, only to be caught in the middle of hostilities between two mighty powers grappling for dominion. Yet, none of that has anything to do with him. Following his desires, Claud eventually makes his way to the fabled Celestia Ruins, a fragment of another world. Bearing witness to truths he cannot yet comprehend, he returns from his exploration, a small break away from the machinations of destiny. One thing, however, is for certain. Destiny will not wait for him. Book 7: Reddest Rage Synopsis: Destiny churns on, heedless of mortal machinations, and Claud watches as the battlegrounds between the Moons and the Dark are drawn up. With the forces of the great Dark occupying Lostfon, Claud comes to a startling realisation — that he may have very well be a murderer of heinous proportions. Grappling with that realisation, he struggles to prepare for his Second Tutorial... Back in Istrel, Dia finds herself confronted with a perennial truth. Even in a time of writhing destiny, the machinations between nobles never cease to end — and unfortunately for her, the group once known as the Moon Lords are forced into dealing with a petty squabble between two counts. What they didn't account for, however, was the startling discovery they would soon make... And the shadow of the Red God's Holy Son behind it all. Book 8: Darkness Descends Synopsis: Nightmares haunt the horizon as Claud sinks and awakens from a seeming dream. What was once illusory begins to play out before him, in a way he cannot imagine. Dia, forced to wield arms, begins and ends a battle that opens her eyes to the vast dangers that lurk in this sundered world. Under the banner of humanity and divinity, she beholds the silent, forgotten protectors of Orb...but there is no forgetting the battle between the divinities. The Dark descends, the Moons writhe, and the horns of war blow once more. But this is not their battle. Not yet. Book 9: Moons Muster Synopsis: As more and more events fall into place, Claud finds himself desperate. Not for himself, but for the person who has turned into his world. Armed with the knowledge of a certain future, he approaches the only person that could possibly help him in his time of need, trading information for a promise of help. With that as solace, he returns to the grim task of understanding and seeking, revisiting an ancient, shattered fragment of another world...unleashing changes that he never knew was possible. Back in Istrel, Dia and the others must now navigate around a familiar spirit, who seeks to investigate the death of his master's Bearer. With them as prime suspects, the Seekers of Life must move carefully...but the Coloured Gods are not the only divinities eyeing them closely. The Moons, bristling from repeated defeats, are looking for new recruits, and the Seekers of Life are prime cannon fodder. Above all, destiny marches on, the unfeeling clock a warning to all. The Trial of Aeons will soon arrive. Book 10: Destiny Divine Synopsis: ??? Release frequency: one every few days or something, I guess. (This work is also being serialised on Webnovel under the name Revile as a trial run)
