Divine Emperor Of Death Chapter 963
Advertisement
Fortunately, Elder Havle Alstreim misunderstood that he was 'pursuing' the Conferred Queen in a low-key manner, also knowing that he could not start a men's talk, which men would usually do when they notice a stunning beauty walk past them, commenting about her curvaceous figure in all sorts of indecent ways.
Nothing untoward happened in the end, leaving Davis alone with Edgar Alstreim.
"Alchemist Davis..." Edgar Alstreim stretched his hands out as if he were relieved, "Let me show you around the mansion."
"No need... Take me to a place where we can sit and talk in a relaxed manner. I'm more interested in continuing the conversation about Tia Alstreim that we couldn't finish in the past."
Edgar Alstreim's expression froze for a second before he cast a look at Davis, "You knew?"
Davis returned the gaze and solemnly nodded his head.
"So, when are you going to marry Tia Alstreim to me?"
Edgar Alstreim's expression scrunched up in shock before he promptly calmed down. He knew he was a fool to have even believed the words coming out of this deceptive brat.
Yes, a deceptive brat.
Those are the best words he could use to describe this young man since he didn't find him to be devious. Deceptive, because he knew that this young man possesses Mature Soul Stage Cultivation when they last met but displayed Elder Soul Stage Cultivation, an entire stage lower to the outside world; and also the fact that this man could originally be from the Alstreim Family since he seemed to know a lot more about his situation in the past.
He had referred to various sources, but that was still a mystery that he was unable to solve.
In any case, he didn't know for what reason this young man put on a humble outlook despite his abnormal prowess other than the fact that it should be for his own safety but with the Conferred Queen behind his back, was there even a need to hold himself back?

In truth, wouldn't it be more advantageous to him in the case where he could prove himself to the Conferred Queen to gain favor?
Edgar Alstreim inwardly shook his head.
He didn't know much about Alchemist Davis, or the one who looked like his brother, Logan Loret. He saw the latter's face in the Ethren City as well, but the information he possesses was insufficient and dangerous for him to take a leap of faith. However, since his daughter's Whisper of Fate Phenomenon activated once again, he possessed no choice but to divulge the secrets since the possibility of it descending once again on his daughter is way less.
The Whisper of Fate Phenomenon does not take place twice normally, and if it did, it must mean the opportunity that it presented still hasn't been missed yet!
Unfortunately, Tia Alstreim whispered into his ear, confirming that her Whisper of Fate Phenomenon is still connected with Alchemist Davis, and judging by Alchemist Davis's character, he felt that he might have better chances in securing a future for his daughter when he considered the unknown. Otherwise, would he dare to take the leap of faith at this point in time?
Putting this matter of taking a leap of faith aside, he felt that Alchemist Davis sure knew how to provoke him.
"This way..." Edgar Alstreim gestured and started to walk without turning back.
Davis followed. They stepped into the corridor and walked for a while, moving around a bit in this big mansion.
"Where are we going?"...
"My room..."
"I understand. There isn't a better place to talk about Tia Alstreim's 'future'..." Davis raised his voice by the end.
"Don't keep acting like a fool. It isn't good for your reputation." Edgar Alstreim turned back to stare with an indifferent expression on his face.
Davis shrugged with a wide smile and a shrug that told Edgar Alstreim that perhaps he would have to make do with this man with a defective piece of brain cell.

"For the heavens to have picked you to aid my daughter, fair enough... Fate is still cruel to my family and me." He muttered before raising his brows at Alchemist Davis.
Davis didn't know why, but it felt good to tease his grandfather, just like how it was funny to mock his father. He wondered why he would do this and felt that he was just bored perhaps, but the reactions Edgar Alstreim gave towards Tia Alstreim and Lia Alstreim made him know more about him. Davis felt that it would be helpful to make future decisions.
After all, he knew that he was picky when it comes to people whom he could keep close by... although, Edgar Alstreim already gets a pass due to being his mother's father. He mused that he just wanted to personally know about his maternal grandfather.
"That's right, what happened to your elder brother's children. My Young Mistress was semi-present in the talks between your elder brother and the Ancestors, and she wanted to know whether if the great Towering Cloud Hall and Falling Snow Sect's Ancestors kept their words or if they are all just talk and deceptive."
"The Conferred Queen truly is a just and righteous person..." Edgar Alstreim sighed with respect in response. He mused that the Conferred Queen probably wanted to get justice for his elder brother if the Ancestors were to go back on their word, perhaps on account of Elder Havle Alstreim or a reason that he didn't know.
'Maybe they were acquainted over the brief stay in the Purple Guest Palace, no? Then again, there was that strange black-haired masked woman who kept staring at me for no reason... Maybe it was because of her?'
"If it's Daniuis Alstreim's children, then they're all safe on the fourth floor. However, due to safety and security reasons, they've been ordered to stay on the fourth floor until three months pass by the Ancestor. Even I am not allowed to meet them during this time."
"I see... I'll be sure to convey this to my Young Mistress." Davis nodded his head and inwardly thought that it was good. He mused that there was no need to keep Daniuis Alstreim in their group anymore, making it one less of a headache for him to worry about.
In the next few seconds, they crossed a turning point of the corridor and entered the first room of the many.
Edgar Alstreim gestured Davis to enter politely, and Davis complied. He walked into the room before he turned back and waved his hand, closing the door.
"I'll be straightforward..." Edgar Alstreim formed a should barrier with a swing of his hand, "But first... No one knows about this matter, so I'd like to receive an oath of secrecy from you if you'd like to hear the rest of the conversation."
Davis raised his brows before he inwardly chuckled.
As if his grandfather possessed any chips to negotiate in front of him...
"You can either tell me about your daughter's unique constitution, or you can wait it out just like the last time. It's your call." Davis shrugged again as if he couldn't really care what Edgar Alstreim would choose.
Edgar Alstreim became a bit startled. It was not contrary to what he initially expected.
Alchemist Davis does indeed know about Tia Alstreim's unique constitution, but as for which constitution it was, it seemed like that Alchemist Davis still didn't know. That much was obvious from how nonchalant Alchemist Davis was about his daughter's unique constitution.
