Divine Emperor of Death

"Davis Loret, we apprehend you on the grounds of suspicion that you might've had something to do with the disturbance felt in our Reincarnation Dimension. If you do not comply, don't blame us for being ruthless."

The Chief Divine Inquisitor reached out his hands and made hand seals, appearing ready to unleash something that could possibly restrict Davis in a layer of chains.

"What did you say?"

Davis's amused expression froze.

Were they taking him to the Reincarnation Dimension? He felt like that was an opportunity that he couldn't miss.

After all, without Myria, he wouldn't be suspected at all. Just his reincarnation physique alone wasn't enough to prove that he was the source of the disturbance. However, they might have methods to fully interrogate him.

He might even enter a fugue state and the next thing he knew, he might've blabbered everything out, so without having complete confidence that came from overwhelming power, he felt like he must avert this disaster of being taken to the Reincarnation Dimension.

"You heard us. Don't make me repeat it again."

"So if I come with you guys, what becomes of me? I consider myself to be death reincarnate, but am I dying?"

Davis chuckled at the Chief Divine Inquisitor, causing the latter to frown.

"No, I assure you that as long as you aren't the main source of the disturbance, nothing will happen to you."

'Heh… there goes my hope as I am one of the two main sources for the disturbance…'

Davis inwardly laughed before he raised his hands, pulling out Yama.

"Then come. I'll make you regret ever stepping foot into this world."

The appearance of the scythe made the Divine Inquisitors narrow their eyes, unable to believe he held such a weapon without fear of repercussions as death would erode their own skin without fail, but it was like he was holding the gentlest sword made of water attribute.

It was completely tame in his grasp, not even harming him the slightest bit but even accentuating his prowess.

They could even see a bit of life-attributed ores embedded in it, making them wonder.

Regardless, they could see that it didn't pose them much harm. It didn't seem to be a Legacy Armament or anything else for that matter.

"Watch out… his pure death energy may harm our cores…"

The Chief Divine Inquisitor warned the other two in case of unexpected situations. He was about to perform his move when suddenly the woman to his left spoke up.

"Wait…"

It was the female Divine Inquisitor with a melodious voice. She raised her hand, blocking the Chief Divine Inquisitor from making a move.

Her actions prompted the others to stay their hands.

"I went to visit your family."

The female Divine Inquisitor uttered, causing Davis to raise his brows. He also expected that could've happened since the other source was probably from his mansion.

"What did you do?" Still, he couldn't contain his killing intent at this moment.

It burst out like a volcanic explosion, showering the Divine Inquisitors in a field of bloodlust.

"…"

The Divine Inquisitors were once again awed at such an entity as Anarchic Divergents, whose existence was excluded from the realm of common sense and fate alike cannot be taken lightly. After all, even though the other party's cultivation was clearly lesser, he exuded a great sense of danger within them.

Most likely, capturing this Anarchic Divergent would prove to be a gruesome task.

The two other Divine Inquisitors couldn't help but turn to look at the one who proposed for them to wait, wondering if she had other methods to convince him.

Indeed, the sweet-voiced Divine Inquisitor raised her hands, displaying that she was not out to harm.

"I didn't know they were yours at first but I could now see the resemblance and the connection as they were mentioning your name, wondering if I was one of your creations or something…"

"…?"

"I find it truly difficult to comprehend that an Anarchic Divergent like you created a family, but I find your family even more precious than a common family as I'm a firm worshiper of the Life Supreme, so you would not want to leave those children without a father to look after, would you? They're so lovely. Please come with us. Your cooperation would make this much easier, and when you leave, you won't remember anything, so you won't be burdened, even if you are an Anarchic Divergent."

She spoke in a convincing voice, causing Davis to narrow his eyes as he suppressed his killing intent.

So she had not done anything to his family? That was good to hear. Otherwise, he would've lost his cool and straight-up used Fallen Heaven.

He dropped his hands and kept Yama inside his spatial ring, looking no longer worried as though he was convinced.

"I decline."

Davis spoke, smiling amusedly as he raised his chin while looking all cocky.

*Silasila~!*

Abruptly, the sounds of chains echoed, and a long extension of chains swung around Davis, quickly enveloping him and exuding a deathly energy that cut off all forms of energy.

"An artifact instead of a technique…" Davis's lips curled, "I didn't expect the Divine Inquisitor to be deceitful and also…"

He looked at the sweet-voiced female Divine Inquisitor, who seemed to be slightly concerned for him. It made him wonder if these were people or entities of a mindless rotating cog-wheel that reincarnates souls without an end.

Unfortunately for her, he had already decided not to enter the Reincarnation Dimension as he knew he was going to get ground into dust for whatever may be waiting for him.

"Left Divine Inquisitor, you lack much experience and wouldn't know what you're talking about. You're here with us to gain experience, so follow our lead."

"Right Divine Inquisitor…"

The sweet-voiced female Divine Inquisitor sounded disheartened as she heard the other female Divine Inquisitor's advice, as though she truly didn't wish for such a conclusion.

"What…?"

Suddenly, the Chief Divine Inquisitor realized the deathly chains were not able to seal Davis Loret's Soul Forging Cultivation. This was an artifact from the Reincarnation Cycle, and even though it also received the suppression of this universe, it certainly wasn't an item that the likes of a Peak Immortal Emperor would be able to handle even if their prowess was a few levels higher, much less an Immortal King!

Davis was also confused and definitely not happy to be chained twice on the same day, but he learned something else that made him overjoyed.

This artifact from the Reincarnation Dimension didn't work on his soul!

Now he got the urge to go with them but unfortunately for him, he already made his decision and wouldn't like any more changes or challenges right now than he already had to face.

By this time, he guessed the Chief Divine Inquisitor had probably realized that he was one of the prime suspects, considering one of their artifacts didn't work on him.

After all, the Chief Divine Inquisitor went completely silent as though he couldn't believe what he was seeing or sensing since his entire body was cloaked in a black robe.

They could resume their attack on him anytime, but it was truly unfortunate for the Divine Inquisitors that his cavalry was here.

"I'll remember to spare you if we meet next time…."

When Davis uttered those words at the Left Divine Inquisitor, she shuddered.

*Szzz~*

Purplish-black flames abruptly soared at the center of the deathly chains of the artifact. It did nothing to the artifact but the flames spread to both ends, reaching the Chief Divine Inquisitor and Davis in one quick motion like oil burning up.

"Hmph!"

The Chief Divine Inquisitor harrumphed and unleashed a wave of death energy, pure and powerful enough to reinforce the artifact's sealing properties and try to extinguish the flames. However, this eerie wave of death energy traversed above the chain and clashed with the purplish-black flames, only to end up incinerated upon contact.

"What!?"

"Careful! That's an ungodly manifestation of apocalyptic flames!"

He became shocked, but the Left Divine Inquisitor extended a black whip and flung him away from the chains, quickly retreating as she took a step back.

For a moment, they couldn't understand what the Left Divine Inquisitor was saying but as they focused on the purplish-black flames, they naturally came to understand what it was, becoming dumbfounded.

And then, when they saw a little spirit manifest on top of the floating chains, they shuddered, unable to believe such an entity could exist.

Davis freed himself from the chains once it was let go of. The purplish-black apocalyptic flames failed to reach him because of Calypsea's extraordinary control.

He couldn't help but pick up the deathly chains, looking at it with some delight. To him, it was obvious it was an Empyrean Grade Artifact, but at what level, he didn't know. However, it seemed to be in a suppressed state here.

But what about the true immortal world…?

"I'll take these chains as a gift. Thanks…"

He took a good look at those Divine Inquisitors, wanting to etch their auras as much as possible so he didn't forget them. As far as he considered, the fight was already over since Calypsea somehow came here to back him up, perhaps because she followed the so-called Left Divine Inquisitor who returned from his mansion.

His prowess couldn't match them, but he figured that Calypsea could take on all three of them at once.

"You- give it back!"

The Chief Divine Inquisitor roared and flew towards him, but looking at the little spirit hovering in between, he came to a stop.

"Chief… we should leave…" The Right Divine Inquisitor suddenly spoke.

"What are you saying!?-"

"… too many Divergents…!"

The Chief Divine Inquisitor looked pissed as he had never experienced this kind of situation but looked at the Right Divine Inquisitor tremble before he glanced up in the direction she was viewing and saw eight people in the skies, the crimson light over his cloth fluctuated.

Peak-Level Immortal Emperors, and if what the Right Divine Inquisitor said was true… they were all Divergents.

Abruptly, the three Divine Inquisitors disappeared, reappearing in their Ghost Ship. The long yet terrifying ship equipped with untold horrors then unexpectedly shifted space, disappearing into the void while the three Divine Inquisitors looked shocked as they guessed one of their superiors had possibly pulled them back, which meant that their time almost ran out before they could be blamed or held responsible for some matter.

Was this because they had one of their artifacts stolen or the congregation that was enough to shake the course of fate!? Or was it because of the Heaven's Warrior who spotted them?

They didn't know.

However, to Davis, everything seemed surreal as one moment they were right in front of him but the next moment, completely disappeared from his senses.

But looking at the chains in his hands, he really wondered if they had left.

He had to make sure they really left, casting a glance at Saintess Lunaria, saying nothing before he hurriedly made it back to his mansion with Myria, who stayed quiet according to his wishes all this time because if she had to make a move, it was finally when she would have to expose herself and undoubtedly use the Grimoire of Fate together with Davis.

It was their last resort, so she stayed quiet, fervently wishing that it didn't come to that stage.
