Divine Emperor of Death Chapter 2361 Direct Influence

Chapter 2361 Direct Influence

Katherine Hilltail’s lioness body glowed with white light. Her eyes were closed while her fur fluttered as though she was in a field of breeze, even though it was an airtight-sealed cave at the moment. The pure white light receded from her body, and as she slowly opened her eyes, she discovered that she was looking at Davis.

Her four legs touched the ground, causing her to blink. There was visible confusion on her face as she animatedly inclined her head, even bringing her tail to her face and biting it as though confirming it was an illusion.

She looked around and noticed her blood on the ground but simultaneously noticed the fluctuations of some strange energy that she had never sensed before. However, it was wiped out by someone, and when she turned to look at that someone, she saw that it was her master.

Her big copper eyes that were like big amber jewels in the dark blinked thrice.

Didn’t the experiment fail if her memories were right? How was she standing without a single hint of a laceration? Actually, why did she feel like she had never been so healthy in her life than now?

Although she didn’t understand what had happened, something in the back of her mind said that she owed her entire life to him to be standing without a single injury in her body.

Were this thanks to heavenly resources? But what kind of heavenly resources were this fast-acting? Immortal Grade Heavenly Resources? Was she even worth it!?

Instantly, she knew that she shouldn’t pry for answers.

"I apologize, master." Obediently, Katherine Hilltail lowered her head, "I got greedy for power and forgot to scream for help."

She vaguely remembered Davis screaming at her for not dispelling the beast pact of her own volition. She felt bad about it and causing him to lose resources for reviving her worthless self, she only felt worse.

"You don’t say..."

Davis wondered what she was going to say and saw that she didn’t naively ask how she survived. Nonetheless, he saw that there was no loss of memory or anything to worry about. Fallen Heaven’s revival of Katherine Hilltail was flawless, and now, he could believe that Flamerose and Frostrose were also the real deal and not some copies he made from Fallen Heaven’s immeasurable power.

Nevertheless, he shook his head.

"Who doesn’t get greedy for power? However, it was admirable of you to risk your life down for it under my command. Was I that trustable?"

"Master... what do you mean?" Katherine Hilltail blinked as she shook her pointed her copper tail at herself, "Isn’t it the slave who must gain master’s trust?"

"Honestly... you’re so... naive... in certain aspects..."

"Ehhh...?"

Looking at Davis touch his forehead in exasperation, Katherine Hilltail’s body quivered. Had she disappointed her master?

Sometimes, Davis was exasperated by the weakness of truly innocent people. Some other times, he was exasperated by wicked people who wouldn’t hesitate to backstab at the opportune moment.

Nevertheless, when he thought that this experiment would’ve originally happened to Mira, he felt the chills. He was glad that this didn’t happen to Mira. Otherwise, Isabella would’ve been heartbroken to see Mira suffer and, perhaps, resented him for it. He was glad that he decided to use some other beast in Mira’s place but now that he interacted with Katherine Hilltail, inevitably making her suffer, it weighed on his own conscience.

’Sigh... it seems I can only approach Myria for this matter.’

As a result, the matter of causing Mira to become a King-Tier was fully in Myria’s hands. Only her knowledge could possibly allow him to know what he should do to aid Mira in becoming a King-Tier Magical Beast. Otherwise, he could only search for something like the Million Emerald Vines Calamity’s Nectar but at Peak-Level Emperor Grade at the very least.

But even that wasn’t enough unless it was at the immortal grade considering Mira’s prowess that was two or three levels higher.

Once again sighing, Davis pointed at Katherine Hilltail.

"As for you, although the experiment failed and I was miraculously able to save you, I can’t allow you to leave. You must stay with me for ten years at the very least." Davis emphasized the ’must’ part as his voice raised a few octaves.

However, Katherine Hilltail simply smiled, "I don’t want to leave..."

She didn’t seem intimidated at all, causing Davis to frown.

"Why?"

"I can feel that master is good to me. I believe I won’t be mistreated for the better part of my life."

Katherine Hilltail voiced out with conviction. Her belief came from the fact that he had healed her two times already, restoring her tail and confidence, and even gave her free will to leave. She couldn’t see them as lies, or else none of the events she had gone through added up unless they were all an illusion.

Davis wryly smiled at her conviction.

"If you’re like that, then I won’t be able to hold myself back..."

"..." Katherine Hilltail’s expression turned blank. However, her ears perked up, and her tail stiffened mid-air before slightly waving back and forth.

"For a grand character like master who could tame... tame an Emperor-Tier Magical Beast, I am nothing. I will do my best to please you, master."

"..." It was Davis’s turn to be flabbergasted.

From reluctance, she had turned willing. Was this a good sign or not?

"Teasing you is indeed a good time pass. However, I’ll leave it at that. You see me as someone attractive. That’s fine. However, you’re not my slave anymore, much less loyal."

"No... I’m... although I’m not a slave anymore, I’m loyal~~~" Katherine Hilltail stood her ground with passion.

"Heh." Davis sneered in response, "That is easy to say in words. Your loyalty is proven through your actions, and I have yet to see such actions."

"Then I’ll prove it to master one day."

"That’s what you said." Davis pointed at her before he shrugged.

"..."

His words left Katherine Hilltail feeling that she had been somehow hoodwinked, yet she couldn’t tell how she was hoodwinked.

Soon enough, she was back in some new estate. She recognized that it was her master’s at first, but it didn’t seem that way. Furthermore, she entered a tiny palace within that estate, causing her to be inside an enormous palace.

She had no idea what was going on anymore.

On the other hand, Davis looked at the ground floor. There was no one there, but he didn’t mind, knowing that they would have returned to their rooms.

Turning to look at Katherine Hilltail, he wondered if he should give her a room and make her stay here for a decade or a hundred years because of the temporal change.

After all, he couldn’t let go of her either. Now that she had become an entity revived through Fallen Heaven, surely, her fate was no longer the same but directly influenced, no?

’Woah, I, fortunately, chanced upon a new experiment that couldn’t be seen but only felt...’

Davis couldn’t help but smirk, but for Katherine Hilltail, that smile seemed somewhat devilish, as though it had devious plans for her.

Perhaps sensing his presence, Evelynn and Isabella soon arrived at the ground floor.

The visage and the countenance of the two empire-toppling beauties left Katherine Hilltail stunned. It didn’t take her much to also know that their power was immeasurable, one of them even radiating an intense Earth Dragon aura that made her want to challenge yet also submit as she felt that she wasn’t a match.

Just who were these people? Where did they come from!?

"That’s it. Take care of Katherine Hilltail for me. See you all later."

Davis informed Evelynn and Isabella through soul transmission and disappeared. Of course, he didn’t tell them about reviving Katherine Hilltail but said he had saved her from near death and informed them that his method to make Nadia an Emperor-Tier Beast was a failure on earth-attribute beasts.

They were both speechless and horrified at hearing about the side effects, but Isabella didn’t waste time, moving towards Katherine Hilltail before she stood in front of her, reaching out her hand.

"Thank you for becoming a substitute for Mira. From now on, I’ll take care of you. You can depend upon this big sister."

Isabella let out a gentle yet dignified smile as she patted Katherine Hilltail’s head.

"You... you are?"

"Me?" Isabella’s eyes lit up, "I’m Davis’s third wife and his self-proclaimed Empress! Isabella Davis."

"First wife. Evelynn Davis." Evelynn smiled by their side before she frowned, "But our husband doesn’t go by the name Davis at the moment. It’s currently Feng Chu."

"Ah, that’s right...!" Isabella slapped her forehead.

"..."

Meanwhile, Katherine Hilltail’s head spun, not understanding everything. Was her master’s name Davis or Feng Chu? But the next second, she saw a monstrous Earth Dragon appear out of nowhere, causing her to turn tail and run away in fear.

"Wait...! This is Mira!"

"Don’t run! Let’s play!~"

Mira’s lovely yet playful voice resounded, but it caused Katherine Hilltail to cry inwardly for her master to come back. Just where had he left her? These people were all frightening that she wished to huddle behind his legs right about now, where she felt safer.
