As if mocking him with a sneer, Death Book's voice echoed again, "Honestly, did you think that girl who possessed Ellia let you go? If it weren't for who dissolved her slave seal which she cast on you, you would have been slaving for her right now! If it weren't for my power which made her believe that so expert is protecting you, she wouldn't have left! Instead, she would have slaughtered you and your whole family!"
Its voice then sounded exasperated, "And here you are shouting that you want to make friends with her? What? Is this one of those comics you read back in the third layer!?"
Davis's emotions turned complicated, 'Why is it worrying for suddenly? Does it want dead or alive?'
Clearing his mind, he asked with a confused expression on his face, "What do you want to do then…?"
"Are you blind? You should have written her na on the mont she glared at you with hostility!" It replied in an incensed tone.
"But! Her Soul Forging Cultivation was higher than mine! I couldn't see her na with the Death God Eyes!" Davis rebutted as he already thought about using his Death God Eyes on her at that ti.
However, he was even hard-pressed to use his soul under her enormous soul pressure.
Chuckling in a cold voice, it explained, "Idiot, write that little girl's na. If you do that, then her other self, which is her previous incarnation will automatically lose its support to reside in this world. She will die along with her other self."
Davis suddenly turned confused, 'Write that girl's na?'
Shaking his head, he answered, "I don't understand…"
"If I'm correct, then the little girl's previous incarnation should have used a forbidden cultivation technique that was against the laws of the heavens or perhaps encountered a mishap while cultivating that forbidden technique causing both of their souls to be interconnected together. One needs the other, or they won't be able to live! That why I ntioned that your Ellia's consciousness might have been sealed or imprisoned, not killed."
Davis narrowed his eyes as the realization hit him, "You want to kill Ellia?"
"That's what I'm trying to convey all this ti…" It sighed. Its voice sounded as if it was talking to a slow-learner.
Davis raised his hand and pointed at his glabella, "I won't do it! I'm not a cold-hearted bastard like you who only cares about Death! Besides, your speculation might not be entirely correct!"
"Oh… What if I said that I have over 90% confidence in my speculation?" It raised its voice in interest and questioned.
"Then I'll believe that remaining 10%!" Davis gritted his teeth and answered its question.
It went silent for a mont before its displeased voice echoed in his mind, "Hmph, don't bla for not reminding you! It's your choice…"
"I won't." Davis nodded his head calmly. He then rembered sothing.
"Oh, I forgot, thanks for saving back then. I didn't realize that it was you who saved from her attack… A few monts before, I didn't even realize that it was an attack!"
"Who said I saved you specifically? I and your soul are bound together. If she had placed a slave seal on you, wouldn't that an that I would also be her slave? It will be an insult that I cannot stand for!"
"Ohhh…" Davis said as he nodded his head rapidly.
'Is it my imagination, or is it possibly acting like what you call it, a 'tsundere'?' Davis thought and felt disgusted. He hurriedly cleared away his thoughts and deed that it was his imagination.
"Well, you still have two more questions to ask. Are you not going to ask?"
Contemplating for a mont, he replied, "I'll keep those two important opportunities in reserve…"
"Are you not going to ask for Cultivation Techniques?" It asked again as if it was tempting him.
"Even if I did, I probably wouldn't have the resources to cultivate it!" He replied calmly and chuckled.
It went silent before replying a mont later, "Tch, you've suddenly beco bright!"
Davis smiled and stood up, he then left the study to et his mother who had been waiting for an hour outside to see him succeed in breaking through.

"I've decided to stay away from her previous incarnation until I grow strong enough to get Ellia back!" Davis strongly responded as he ca out of his thoughts.
Claire smiled as she could see that he was not only optimistic about it but the worry that had been plaguing him has disappeared from his eyes.
"Oh, I forgot to ntion. Evelynn's father, Duke Evan Cauldon ca to take her away today. She waited for you the whole ti, but seeing that you were busy and injured, she left without saying anything."
Davis's expression beca blank as he suddenly felt like sh*t. He was so lost in the matter of Ellia that he totally forgot about Evelynn.
He raised his hands and facepald himself while he imrsed himself in self-bla again.
"Is she injured?" He asked softly, his voice was filled with self-bla.
Claire shook her head, "No, she had just fainted at that ti. Other than that, she is fine…"
"How about the others?" Davis asked without relaxing.
"Everyone is safe, no injuries, except the Royal Castle only had a small part of it destroyed." Smiling brightly, she patted his shoulders which seed to carry so burdens.
"I'm sorry. Mother, it's all my fault."
Claire was confused, but she responded, "If you think so, then make it up to us by taking good care of Evelynn."
Realizing her words, he looked at her in wonder, "Hmm… Does that an you approve of her?"
"Yes. Unfortunately, I said so harsh things while testing her. Later, I explained to her that it was just a test. Although, It might take so ti for her to…" Claire abruptly shut her mouth as she couldn't stand his cold glare anymore.
Davis's expression gradually turned cold while he kept glaring at her.
"I'm sorry…" Claire answered as she lowered her head, her voice couldn't get any eker than now.
"Sigh, I'm not blaming you, mother. I know you did it for . It's just that the timing couldn't be any worse. It's like the entire world is scheming against ."
Davis let out an exasperated sigh.
"I…" She wanted to say sothing but couldn't form the right words.
Laughing at himself, Davis continued, "I haven't even gone to your world, but I'm getting hit with misfortune. I couldn't help but think the curse which had plagued in my previous life is still with …"
Claire stayed silent. She felt all the more guilty for harshly treating Evelynn.
"Leave it, this isn't sothing new. Misfortune follows all the way until I die, it won't change."
Claire couldn't understand his thoughts about his previous life but seeing her son blaming himself, she couldn't help but ask, "Davis, are you giving up?"
Davis looked at her and laughed, "Of course not! I know myself better than anyone… Guess I just wanted to share it with soone and actually, now that I have divulged my thoughts, I feel a lot better."
