Divine Emperor of Death



"…"

The Starlight Jade Wolf King, Renfa Jadelight, and Davion Jadelight understood the implications of the man before them. If they were to think of this man philosophically, he was not a menace nor a calamity but an apocalypse, a battle between the good and the evil appearing as a direct manifestation.

No matter which path he chose, they knew he would wreak absolute havoc on both, bringing death or restoring life as he pleas, capable of what even Saints and Fiends dream of obtaining.

They couldn't help but think it was no wonder the heavens would designate as an Anarchic Divergent and kill him off.

He was almost all-powerful to be left alive. After all, if he reaches the most visible peak, then wouldn't that threaten the very balance of the universe?

Even those who had no idea about the true universe could imagine countless people easily dying under his foot or living under his grace. Such a being could very well rule the heavens. After all, ruling the universe practically meant the same.

After a few moments of silence, the Starlight Jade Wolf King sighed.

"If you want to punch me in the face to return the favor, I won't resist."

Davis became taken aback before he shook his head, "If someone touched my women, no matter who it may be, then they're not going to remain unscathed at the very least. On the contrary, I appreciate Brother Fenren for sending me flying, proving that your emotions towards everyone are real and passionate. You have my respect."

"Haha…" The Starlight Jade Wolf King wryly laughed, "I don't deserve such respect. I know if you were aware that she was mine, then you would've approached this matter differently."

"I don't know about that."

Davis pursed his lips, "I would've found such a woman even more disgusting and might've secretly killed her, leading me to make mistakes upon mistakes."

"…"

"…"

"You two should stop if you are still brothers."

Renfa Jadelight almost rolled her eyes at them. Where were they moving the conversation? She figured that these two would fight again if this were the case, and she didn't want to see that happen.

She lightly sighed and cupped her hands.

"Emp- Divine Emperor of Death, I apologize for any misunderstanding that I may have caused. It is indeed my fault that I got possessed by some powerful person. However, if you know who it is, then please share it with us. I won't leave such a person alive."

"Me neither! Brother Davis, just tell me who it is if you know. I'll avenge you and my Renfa, even if it means my life-"

"I know."

Davis interrupted, causing the Starlight Jade Wolf King's expression to turn solemn. He really didn't expect the other party to know who it was.

On the other hand, Davis possessed a complex expression on his face. He couldn't help but feel more respect for Renfa Jadelight as she kept admitting that it was her mistake. However, he shook his head.

"But I'd like to once again make things clear first. If I didn't pose as a Saint, then Renfa Jadelight might've never been possessed in the first place, so I know I am ultimately responsible for this mess, but I also believe that I made amends for this by reviving her. Regardless-"

Davis paused a second before continuing, "-don't bother chasing after the true culprit. The entire Starlight Jade Wolf Clan will be buried overnight if you offend such a person."

"…"

The Starlight Jade Wolf King, Renfa Jadelight, and Davion Jadelight became confused. Were they facing an ancient power and not an individual for the Divine Emperor of Death to be this cautious?

"I don't know much about that person, but what I do know is that's an existence above Immortal Emperor-"

"…!"

"-Someone from the true immortal world known as Vile Enchanter."

Davis shrugged while the three reeled in shock.

They became unresponsive for a few seconds before a soft voice echoed.

"No wonder… no wonder I wasn't able to resist even a bit..."

Renfa Jadelight finally realized the heaviness of the situation, allowing her to realize that even if she was prepared and not caught in surprise, she would've most likely met the same fate. Shuddering ever so lightly, she couldn't help but think what would've happened if she was still controlled.

But ironically enough, dying once and getting revived saved her.

She didn't know what to think about this other than feeling gratitude.

But on the other hand, the Starlight Jade Wolf King appeared incensed, although no one was sure if he was feeling enraged or helpless, perhaps both.

"Although I understand all three of your anger, I suggest being patient if what the Divine Emperor of Death is saying is true."

Davion Jadelight advised, "As always, the dish known as revenge is best served cold."

"…"

Davis blinked. He did realize it a few seconds ago, but he was now being called Divine Emperor of Death a lot.

'Guess they truly respect me as a Saint...' He imagined as his lips curled in derision against the heavens.

He had finally reached a stage where the word 'Divine' didn't even give him a glimpse of fright anymore. He could still remember how chilling it was when he experienced its karmic burden, but now, it was as warm as a hot tea, only causing his heart and soul to warm in pride.

"Also," Davis continued, "There's two more of them you should watch out for…"

"Two more!?"

Davion Jadelight turned alarmed. Even his calm demeanor was nowhere to be seen anymore.

"The first one is also a master of possession and cursing, Accursed Warlock…"

Davis told them about Fraser Herrion while leaving his name out. After all, Myria told him not to utter his name, so he took the same precaution with Vile Enchanter Kieran Hartley.

"The second, as you already know, is Vile Enchanter…"

Davis again instructed them not to pick a fight with him or that it would end badly.

"As for the third and final outsider I know, I'm not sure. I haven't even met him yet but judging by his title, the- "

*Vsssh~!*

Abruptly, the barrier sealing the broken door of the room became undone as the two people rushed in.

Davion Jadelight was about to berate them but then saw it was the two Ancestors.

"Great Ancestor, this is bad..." The First Ancestor spoke up, "The entire First Haven World is at risk of destruction!"

"..."
