Divine Emperor of Death Chapter 708 Alexi’s Pas

Davis inwardly smirked at Hadre Ethren’s cowardice while Alexi Ethren stared at him as if he had seen his only glimpse of hope in an area that was painted in darkness within his eyesight.

"I’m willing to comply with Senior’s wishes!" He instantly echoed without a shred of hesitation.

Although he had no idea why the Conferred Queen’s Protector wanted him, he was on his wit’s end. With no visible hope to save his mother or himself from the onslaught of his own kin, he had no choice but to rely on this unstable straw.

Hadre Ethren’s expression changed as he almost yelled for his third brother to shut up, however, he didn’t dare do so since Senior was still eyeing him despite his third brother’s cry.

"S-senior, I... He, Alexi Ethren has done a serious crime of attacking me, his Emperor, so..."

"So?" Davis abruptly interrupted, "Did I ask for your opinion?"

He then moved his gaze to Alexi Ethren as he spoke, "I’ve been watching the whole time, wondering what the commotion was about... Don’t try to twist the facts in front of me, or else, I might be forced to enslave the Emperor of the Ethren Empire going as far as to offend the Alstreim Family since I’m targeting its subordinate Empire..."

"But... will they pursue me for repercussions for a newly crowned Emperor whom they have no connections with?"

Hadre Ethren’s expression didn’t even become ugly but aghast. He shut his mouth close and dropped his head in humiliation and fear. The dark blue crown with purple ornaments present on his head looked nothing more than a decoration, nothing more than a figurehead.

Davis didn’t speak to Hadre Ethren anymore. He flew towards Alexi Ethren and arrived at the heart of the array where Alexi Ethren could escape the cloud formation if he wanted so since there was still the gaping hole left open by the array.

"Remove the array, we’re leaving."

Alexi Ethren didn’t dare delay, however, he only hesitated for a single second before he followed the so-called senior’s wishes. He waved his hand and retrieved the array plates that were set up in concealed locations.

Of course, there were no concealed locations in mid-air but the moment the array plates or formation plates are set up, they more or less have the capacity to disappear out of sight to prevent collapse and surveillance, strengthening inner stability.

Davis left the cloud formation without stopping and Alexi Ethren followed suit while princess-carrying his mother over his strong arms. Despite feeling weak himself from the backlash of the secret technique he used, he didn’t want her to suffer.

Despite all her retorts that he should not touch her because of her so-called tainted body, he couldn’t care less. She was his mother who suffered for centuries!

How could he turn a blind eye to his own mother whom he had never seen for centuries but only heard about in his childhood? There wasn’t a day that flashed past his life without him longing for his mother in his childhood.

What she looked like?

What kind of person was she like?

If she were present, how enormously would she have pampered him with her warmth and love?

Those feelings were never something he had got to experience and gradually became a vestige of his life as he grew up but he never once believed the lie spewed by his father that his mother had died after giving childbirth.

He didn’t doubt the fact she died but doubted the fact of how she died.

When he grew up, he gradually got to know the character his father possessed and arrived at the conclusion that his father must be the one who had killed his mother; perhaps due to her lowly birth.

That led to his resentment against his father and the main reason for exiling himself from this heartless Empire in his teenage years.

Funnily, no one came to bring him back or even advise him to return which completely made him realize that there was no use having second thoughts on returning to the Empire.

His goal became to get stronger and have his father pay for his crimes!

Initially, since Kaiser Ethren was his father, he just wanted to cripple that bastard and let him live the life of a mortal as he spared his life. After all, Kaiser Ethren was still his father but after he learned about the atrocities his father committed, furthermore, with his master entering his life in the later years, he wanted to completely slay his father!

There were just too many crimes on his father for him to forgive!

However, now that he killed his father and came to know that his mother was still alive in the disguise of his master, how can he still let her die!?

Alexi Ethren’s eyes shook!

When he turned to look back, he saw none of those experts even move. They could only stare at him, hoping that senior would change his mind. While the Emperor lowered his head, the Royal Protectors only cast reverent and fearful glances at the senior, as if they couldn’t wait to appear like obedient dogs in front of senior.

He turned to look at the mighty and straight back of the senior before looking at his mother’s moist eyelids and her peaceful expression that said that she was already relieved of the burden that was on her shoulder for centuries.

The urge to become stronger, capable enough to match this senior, no, even further, entrenched his mind!

The thought of becoming this senior’s disciple flashed past his mind, and so far from what he had seen, this senior seemed to be reasonable, someone whom he could acknowledge as his master.

However, he already knew that there were no chances of being accepted since this senior time and time repeated that he was nothing more than the Conferred Queen’s protector.

’Should I plead and subordinate myself to the Conferred Queen?’ Alexi Ethren vaguely thought before he shook his head.

First things were first!

Just when they left the third level and entered the second level, Alexi Ethren requested as he gathered his courage!

"Senior! Please save my mother!"

His voice echoed as the onlookers watched with curiosity but Davis didn’t pay any heed as he flew towards his residence.

Alexi Ethren thought that his sincerity wasn’t enough to garner senior’s attention, however, he didn’t dare raise his voice again. Even though he was impatient, he didn’t want to needlessly offend this senior and become a slave in the process, only to lose his mother.

He wanted to see hope for his mother, and for that, he felt that he could do anything at the moment and it required him to be patient, however, his mother’s condition is deteriorating rapidly and he didn’t have time to explore this options!

"Senior! I’m willing to become subservient! Please save my mother!"

Looking at the senior not responding to his plea, Alexi Ethren became agitated. He possessed no means to save his mother and he didn’t have that so-called evil technique to transfer blood essence, otherwise, he would’ve used his own blood essence to make his mother recover.

In any case, it was just like returning the blood essences that he absorbed from his mother, so he didn’t feel reluctant in regard to that and instead, wanted to return it as soon as possible.

While he thought all of this, Davis quickly arrived at the residence, and disappeared, leaving Alexi Ethren blank-faced.

’What now!?’

Just when he was panicking that he was left behind without being given any instructions, a person appeared in front of him. With blonde hair, sapphire eyes, and handsome face, he appeared.

Alexi Ethren blinked as he didn’t expect this person to show up. He recognized this person to be none other than the man who married Natalya, the woman he had his eyes on for his future other than his master, who now ironically turned out to be his mother.

Davis’s main body stood in front of Alexi Ethren with a smile on his face, "Let’s step inside for a while before I send you out soon enough..."

He turned and entered the residence amidst Alexi Ethren’s stunned gaze.

Alexi Ethren narrowed his eyes, but when he looked at his mother’s state, he didn’t hesitate. Whether it’d be a trap for his life or a call for him to be humiliated because of a man’s grudge, he didn’t care at this point. He flew and stepped inside the residence.
