Divine Emperor Of Death Chapter 982

Dalila Leehan pursed her lips as her expression became belligerent before calming down. She harrumphed and took the papers into her hands before turning it around, displaying the last few pages to him.
"What is the meaning of this!?"
"What do you mean?" Belias Alstreim narrowed his eyes.
Davis and the spectators looked at Dalila Leehan in doubt. What was she angry about?
"The Unison Mark Pill, Domain Breaking Pill, and the other eight questions! These are all questions that are normally set for a Low-Level King Grade Alchemist Exam! And some of the questions are something even my close senior who is a Low-Level King Grade Alchemist would find it difficult to answer!"
"But you elders expecting us juniors to answer these ten difficult questions is a bit overbearing, don't you think!?"
The participants became dumbfounded as they became taken aback. They quickly got to the last ten questions and saw that they didn't know anything about it! These were questions from a Low-Level King Grade Alchemist Exam? No wonder they weren't able to tell head or tails of it.
In truth, they wouldn't have even recognized it as questions from an upper-grade exam if it weren't for Dalila Leehan!
Belias Alstreim's lips twitched as he was unable to provide an answer to that question. He was not the one who readied the questions, after all. However, he was a bit dumbfounded.
Usually, who would be daring enough to ask the examiner? He inwardly scoffed, thinking that Thousand Pill Palace disciples sure do strut off their authority even in another hegemonic power.
"Top Pill Disciple Dalila Leehan, the test is made that way so the truly gifted ones in their comprehensive knowledge of alchemy can also become seeded."
"If you can answer all the ninety questions that are in the papers, you will still become seeded. Or is it because that your confidence is lacking in your inability to answer the first ninety questions, the reason for your outburst?" Grand Elder Lloyd Alstreim possessed a curious expression on his face, but his words were equal to provocation!

Dalila Leehan suddenly smiled, "I understand. So the purpose of this test is to differentiate knowledge and research maniacs who are worthy enough to be trained by you all into an alchemist expert in the future."
She no longer bothered as she put the question papers on the table before reaching out to the quill in a confident manner to write.
The Grand Elders and Elders all looked at each other as they possessed approving expressions on their faces. One look at the questions and the Thousand Pill Palace's Top Pill Disciple was able to discover their intent on top of recognizing the unfairness. Her earlier anger seemed to be nothing more than a farce.
Honestly, they felt their faces burn and a little bit of humility in front of the alchemy experts from the Thousand Pill Palace. However, they mainly felt envious!
Because, even though they had alchemists within the Alstreim Family, ranging from the low mortal grade to the Peak-Level King Grade, they did not possess a wide variety of pill recipes to enrich their capabilities, nor did they possess a plethora of pill ingredients to make many pills en masse.
They did not possess the capability to be competitive at a Territorial-market level, nor did they possess the capability to support the pill requirements of the entire Alstreim Family's experts. That's why they had to depend upon the Thousand Pill Palace to procure pills....
Compared to the Thousand Pill Palace, which possesses a multitude of pill recipes at King Grade, the Alstreim Family possessed only a few, and for Emperor Grade Pill recipes, they had none, and neither did they have an Emperor Grade Alchemist!
The Alstreim Family's King Grade Alchemists possessed the skill to concoct in theory but not the method and the resources for concocting pills! They lacked both the recipes and experience in making many pills of King Grade despite the thousands of years of history!

This formed a massive discrepancy that a King Grade Alchemist from the Alstreim Family couldn't possibly be compared to a King Grade Alchemist from the Thousand Pill Palace in terms of comprehensive knowledge, pill making, and other requirements needed to become a respectable and grand alchemist expert!
In other words, Alstreim Family's Alchemists are useless because they don't possess pill recipes and the collective knowledge of an alchemy powerhouse. They were like inferior versions, capable of creating high-level pills but only to a limited range of pills, not to mention that their pill qualities were designated as trash when compared to the pills from the Thousand Pill Palace since they do not possess greater and accurate methods to concoct.
This made them feel ashamed and also look up to the Thousand Pill Palace as their end-goals. However, since their loyalties laid within the Alstreim Family, they had no choice but to stop at Peak-Level King Grade and not pursue higher levels in exchange for placing their loyalty within the Thousand Pill Palace.
Davis had started to write after Dalila Leehan's fake outburst. He didn't mind the disturbance but was in a state of concentration as his brain was already processing the answers to the questions he went through.
His soul level had already far surpassed the people here, and his memory power was tremendous that he quickly possessed answers to all the questions. Nevertheless, since it was necessary that he should use a quill tor write rather than using his soul force, it was obvious that it would take time for him to fill up the papers.
The fingers that held the black ink quill was constantly moving along with the arm, providing answers without a stop. His memory power did not forget to include the details of some of the explanations that would typically be missed by the alchemists in their tension and nervousness. Others may panic, and some of the details to write would go unnoticed by them to them even if they knew that they had to eventually write.
It was a common phenomenon among people who race with time. However, since Davis remained tranquil and poised from the beginning, he was not constricted at all.
Countless streams of information kept echoing in his head as he wrote word after word, all without making any mistakes. His writing was incomparably swift, elegant, formatted within the layer of the paper. His choice of words, terminology were all accurate that it could not be nitpicked even by the strictest King Grade Alchemist!
Quickly enough, time passed.
An hour and ten minutes passed before the first participant stood up from the seat. Everyone turned to look at the disturbance and recognized that it was none other than the Dragon Queen's subordinate, Alchemist Davis!
Davis waved the papers in his hand, "I'm finished."
The reserved silence of the exam hall became dead silent.
The spectators and the participants had their mouths a bit agape. Dalila Leehan's eyes gleamed while Nora Alstreim looked at him with a dumbfounded expression on her face.
So soon!?
The examiner, Belias Alstreim, blinked, "Are you sure? Once the papers are submitted, it would mean that you have completed this round, unable to change the contents written in the papers."

God complex
A hero is summoned to another world, vanquishes evil, yadda yadda, saves the kingdom and lives happily ever after. There is no such hero in this story. Just a desperate youth with great ambition and very little to lose. A zero to hero style story set in a country clearly inspired by modern USA with just as many issues and the minority of mages often pulling strings from the shadows. I am also hoping the whole thing won't turn out edgy enough to cut me. I want to rely on actual good writing rather than cheap powertrip gimmicks. edit: Please don't mind Zetari's salty review. He is quite literally making up any use of the torture and human experimentation trope and says MC is blank after 4 chapters where he conveniently stops reading just at the start of his first character development. For extra entertainment, I will be uploading chapters two at a time and compose a relevant poem through the chapter names. [participant in the Royal Road Writathon challenge]

Crimson Pervert
Markus gets - quite literally - thrown into an RPG Fantasy world. Casually gaining game-breakingly great power is the very first thing of course, but afterwards travelling the world, building a harem and having plain fun is on the agenda. Note: No room to hide the fact that this is heavily inspired by the "Death March" web novel. I will give it my own touch by not having a Japanese-ish main character (Japan is cool and everything, but why have a harem if you never ever do something "H" with them?). Everything (characters, story, etc) is basically my creation, but I consider it a re-think of the original, so I can neither call it an "Original" nor a "Fan Fic". Don't expect it to be overly innovative. I will add an 18+ warning as soon as something like that happens, the first chapter just has a bit of undramatic blood. Comments welcome.
