"Uh, no… I only have eyes for Saffira, my one true love."
Lucian averted his gaze, unable to withstand the Frostcloud Empress's piercing gaze.
"I see. That's so sweet."
Glacia Frigidveil smiled warmly before walking towards Davis, "You have a strong son who is like a burning star. His temperance and character are also not bad. He will grow up to be a great individual who is as strong as us. On another note, I want to have Little Zyren under my tutelage. Can you please agree?"
"Of course, just take him." Davis cupped his hands, "Zyren has a sword physique, so I wanted to personally ask you to take him under your tutelage, Frostcloud Sword Empress. It's great that we were able to resolve this matter so early. Tanya would also be happy."
"I've already asked my disciple, but she said it depends on you. How unfilial, mmph~"
Glacia Frigidveil harrumphed softly, causing Davis to chuckle.
"I see. So you managed to see Tanya. That's great."
"Yes, we managed to catch up on a lot."
Davis and Glacia Frigidveil interacted.
"…"
Qiyra Darkstar was montarily at a loss as she viewed the smiles around her.
It reminded her of the ti when she was actually growing up under Saintess Lunaria's tutelage. At that ti, she was a little girl, and there had been a lot of Aurora Cloud Gate Guardians who had died or ascended and died. Slowly, she lost all feelings of attachnt, and when it was ti to ascend, she found herself all alone.
This continued for a long ti until the third disciple ascended, and then the fourth, the fifth.
As fellow disciples, they enjoyed their ti together even while having nurous altercations and disputes, but she couldn't rember when was the last ti they were this happy and noisy. Even if Laphria Rini was cheerful and their master ascended to return to them, everyone more or less kept their walls up.
Yet, one person landed here and changed the dynamic in an instant.
'I… I can see why master would care for him… he's not bad…'
Qiyra Darkstar decided to overlook his previous transgressions. The Celestial Transcendent may or may not be on them soon, but she didn't think he could easily beat her in this layer without bringing his true body.
'For Laphria and Jaiyan's newfound life, I need to sharpen my techniques.'
She thought before calling out to Glacia Frigidveil and secretly communicated the issue with her, not going public.
"Oh?" Glacia Frigidveil cast a glance at Davis before she returned her gaze and nodded, "Good decision to leave. We really would've gone far if he had really kidnapped his granddaughter. Still, only he could think of daring to do sothing like that."
"Well, he seems to have fought the Celestial Transcendent thrice. I'm sure he knows what he's doing, but the risk is unfortunately high for all of us. I can't get master, or you all get caught up in it."
"Indeed. Don't worry. I have my final sword strike. Even if I can't kill the Celestial Transcendent, sealing him for a few hours until you all escape wouldn't be a problem."
The two of them discussed the matter at length.
Davis noticed their gaze and felt sorry, but he didn't join in their conversation.
He walked over to the ladies, looking at each one of them with a prideful gaze.
"My declaration doesn't stop with them alone. I swear to help you all achieve the sa results. Don't reject it. I insist since you all had your own roles to play. With Vereina, Rokushi Mirai, and Nyoran, Illumina wouldn't have been fast enough to reach her current level to help survive."
"Queen Nadija, this applies to you as well. You really made a good decision lighting up the beacon, while I would have made the opposite decision if you had told about it, since I wouldn't want them to get hurt. You have my utmost gratitude."
"I can't accept." Queen Nadija hurriedly shook her head, "Please look after my husband. He's my star and my hope for a happy life. Without him, I-"
She choked, appearing teary-eyed. She had also barely witnessed Davis's tribulation, and since Kronos Alistair's tribulation was overtaken by him, she didn't know what their future entailed anymore, whether the tribulation would beco even stronger or approach the standards of the Divine Emperor of Death's tribulation.
Either way, her husband needed to get stronger.
"Haha." Davis turned to look at Kronos Alistair, "It seems like you really did hit the jackpot with her. I rember you trying to kidnap and violate her before. Am I misrembering things?"
"Ahh! Don't bring up so fake past in your head!"
Kronos Alistair raged, wanting to hit Davis and rewind ti, 'Wait, how does he even rember it!?'
He felt Davis was really the nesis of his ti-attributed physique.
However, he didn't care since he had told Nadija everything, wanting her to accept him wholeheartedly.
Davis reassured Nadija that he would look after her husband from a distance before he walked before Jade Aurora and grabbed her soft hands.
"Myria. Nadia. You are looking at your thirty-third sister. Do you reject her?"
"Nope."
"No."
Nadia and Myria responded with a hearty smile, the latter knowing Tia would be happy and even dance.
Davis heaved a breath in relief for gaining the first note of acceptance. He looked at Jade Aurora's black eyes and gestured.
"Let's walk along the shore. Do you mind?"
"No, I'd be happy to."
Jade Aurora's gaze shimred. Being chosen out of all the wonderful won here, she was practically swooning, barely keeping her calm, and to walk along the shoreline, that was like a dream. She removed her shoes, feeling the warm sun but also the wet sand as she walked along with him, feeling dreamy.
Walking hand-in-hand, her cheeks retained a healthy blush as her ocean blue hair swayed in the breeze.
"Say," Davis started, "Do you have any interest in knowing about the sister who ca before you? Or do you want to just talk about us?"
"Sister who ca before ? The thirty-second? Who is it? I'm curious."
Jade Aurora openly said, not minding the start of the conversation being sothing other than her.
Davis turned to look at the grotto in the distance that was along the shoreline, "Myria just said the problematic thirty-second wife is inside that grotto. I really brought in a ss, so I thought it's best to let you know first."
"Oh? Soone even you would consider problematic?"
"Yes," Davis smiled softly, "Her na is Zenova."
"…"
Jade Aurora froze. She couldn't tell who this person was but why was his tone a bit hateful?
