Divine Emperor of Death Chapter 2385 Gracious Power

Chapter 2385 Gracious Power

Evelynn became battle ready while Shirley also stayed, her undulations alternating between hot and cold as its intensity heightened.

What Evelynn sensed... Davis also sensed.

His brows possessed a heavy frown.

The beast in front of him... didn’t undulate with the aura of a wolf. It was something else, but he wouldn’t go far enough to say that it felt sinister or hostile, causing him to still keep his calm. Instead, its aura even induced reverential emotions in him, although it wasn’t much, thinking it was similar to how he felt that Nadia’s aura was more ominous and oppressive than anything he had felt from other people.

The others also gradually sensed the strange aura, recognizing that what they were witnessing was a quadrupedal beast stepping out of the entirely consumed silvery-white cocoon. Its tails flailed like the center of a windstorm wrapped in a ball, and it walked towards Davis, each step of it causing the plant life that was already growing there even produce flowers, reaching maturity.

Shortly, the misty white fog receded, revealing a quadrupedal beast that was once of the same height Nadia had been when she came out of mutation, not something more than a meter and half tall. Its head was different from that of a wolf’s, slightly elongated and smaller but more refined, while its two ears also flicked occasionally, probably recognizing the different sounds the world made around her.

The beast’s body was covered in pure, scintillating white fur but also had silvery-golden runes to the sides, much like Nadia had but of different color.

Nonetheless, what was shocking was her silvery tails beautifully waving around as they created an artistic wave that mesmerized Davis.

After all, there were not one or three but nine of them! There were nine tails, causing Davis to be astounded!

"Your eminence..." Abruptly, a mellow yet charming voice came out from the nine-tailed beast, "Do you not remember me?"

’That’s my line!’ Davis inwardly shouted, but a smile of relief appeared on his face, "Everlight, it’s still you."

"Yes, your eminence."

Everlight’s nine tails also visibly calmed as she relaxed. Their undulations had stormed off, scaring her into thinking they were about to kill her.

Evelynn and the others also visibly relaxed, smiling at each other. Their husband’s plan for Everlight, whatever it may be, was a success that they couldn’t help but rejoice! However, there was still confusion in their eyes because as they gazed at Everlight, they clearly saw that she was not a wolf but a...

"So... why are you a nine-tailed fox...?" Davis’s expression was stiff.

"I want to ask that...!"

Everlight cried out, her voice full of grievance, while her nine tails moved forwards as they hid her face.

It could be seen that she was visibly ashamed, causing Davis to take a step back in awkwardness. He inwardly claimed that he was not at fault as he had no idea that this would happen. After all, he expected her to become a monster of a wolf or a failed result but to have become a fox, which certainly confused his own understanding of Fallen Heaven’s abilities.

It allowed mutating into a superior species but not a different species! But now, he was not so sure.

"I think I know what’s going on, although I’m not sure..."

At this moment, Lea’s melodious voice echoed as she strode forward, causing Davis’s eyes to brighten as he quickly turned to look at her.

"Tell us. I’m all ears."

Lea nodded, "The Light Sky Wolf Clan always claimed that their ancestors were the Starlight Jade Wolf and a normal Emperor Rank Wolf Species that they were too ashamed to name because of the illustrious name of the Starlight Jade Wolf Clan, one of the four Four Grand Light Supreme Beasts."

"However, I’ve heard rumors, and I’m still not sure, but it is said that the Light Sky Wolf is the progeny between a Starlight Jade Wolf and a particular fox species of unknown origin."

Davis’s brows raised.

Nadia did say that Everlight was mixed blood, but he figured that she a mix between the Starlight Jade Wolf and another wolf species. However, to think that the Light Sky Wolf was a mix between two different magical beast species, the wolf and a fox.

"Everlight, is that true?"

Everlight trembled under everyone’s gaze. However, she still answered.

"Yes... it’s a dark history of our Light Sky Wolf Clan that our ancestors buried, so it’s somewhat observable in our inherited memories..."

Some of her nine tails receded from her face as Everlight looked at Davis with an even more ashamed expression.

"Our other ancestry came from the Illusory Charming Fox Clan, an Emperor Rank Fox Species that holds little prowess but immense charming techniques that they’re basically known to be looked down upon for their seductive practices. Because of that, it was memorized that we, the Light Sky Wolves, were also ostracized and heavily frowned upon that we tried to get rid of our fox ancestry from our history..."

"Oh, so that’s why I heard no Light Sky Wolf would deign to use illusion when they could actually use it..." Lea’s eyes brightened.

Evelynn and the others also understood what had happened in their history.

"So these foxes were called shamed because they were like sluts?"

"Mingzhi...!" Fiora hurriedly closed Mingzhi’s mouth from running rampant, but it was too late.

"Wuwuwu~"

Everlight lowered her head as she whimpered, looking sad and dejected, when suddenly she felt a brush of warmth moving across her head.

"Don’t worry. Such a clan has nothing to do with you. Weren’t you majestic and level-headed, leading an entire power to flourish and remain safe as much as you could? I admire you as a fellow living being if you’re capable of that."

Davis gently uttered to Everlight, causing her to look at him before she cackled like a fox in happiness, but that instantly caught herself off-guard, causing her to sulk once again.

"..."

Davis was speechless.

Despite reaching Emperor-Tier, her sadness was clear to him, traversing through their soul pact, but he also felt that she could make others feel that she was not a threat or convey her emotions even without having to talk. However, he also recognized that it would be difficult for Everlight to recognize that she was no longer a wolf but a fox.

"...!"

Abruptly, an explosion went on Davis’s head.

’This...’

He finally understood why Katherine Hilltail failed to mutate with life energy. In fact, he knew for a fact that it would be the same with death energy because...

In the line of Paragon Magical Beasts, the Wolf represented Death, and the Fox represented Life. Understanding this representation somehow without regard for the Dragon, Phoenix, Kirin, and many other magical beasts because he knew that dark-attributed wolves were oppressed by the heavenly tribulation and not light-attributed wolves, he couldn’t help but ask in an excited manner.

"Is your current species named Nine Lives Gracious Fox?"

"Yes... your eminence."

"No... no wonder..."

Everlight seemed surprised. She had only come to know of this after going through her inherited memories a bit.

On the other hand, Davis finally understood that light-attributed foxes would undergo special circumstances when they go through their heavenly tribulation, most likely having a heavenly tribulation factor like a descendant of a Paragon Magical Beast would! Perhaps, that was why the light-attributed foxes declined or were wiped out, although he couldn’t be too sure since he didn’t know much.

"..." Moreover, Evelynn was thoroughly shocked to hear the name of the Nine Lives Gracious Fox that she had only heard from Misteltae once.

For such an existence, she would have once traversed the world and pleaded to that existence to save her husband, but now, such an existence was her husband’s, making her feel exhilarated!
