Chapter 1026 Dont You Dare...

Chapter 1026 Don“t You Dare...

Nora Alstreim only shed a few tears but continued sobbing for a while.

’Uhh, she feels so betrayed by Claire...’ Davis felt like rubbing his forehead in exasperation.

His Heart Intent could make him sense that her frail hope was destroyed, replacing it with a hint of despair, as well as feeling betrayed.

Truly, it had become a difficult situation. With his mother locking this woman up, it meant that she could not be let out but also not be killed. Although her wordings were a bit ambiguous, ’Davis, I’m sorry to burden you again but seal this place as you see fit...’, he could tell that this is what she meant.

Davis stayed still a while as he considered how to seal this place. Considering that they were all cultivators, there was no need to bring food, so complete isolation would be the best option. Secretly using the master token, he activated a defensive formation that covered half the area with Nora Alstreim at the center and independently set up a sealing formation in this room that blocked whatever voice and energy, including physical, that traveled from this room.

With this, even with her soul sea being freed enough to launch soul attacks, it all became useless. Besides, even if he did something to Nora Alstreim, no one would know unless she went out or he revealed otherwise.

He nodded his head one last time as he confirmed all aspects that he needed to consider before taking a step towards the door.

"Are you... Claire’s... son?"

Davis suddenly stopped and turned to look at Nora Alstreim, who was raising her head to stare at him. There was a strange glint in her eyes that told him that she wouldn’t take no for an answer.

"You guessed correctly..."

Nora Alstreim stared at him for a while in silence before she uttered, "No wonder you were angry when I said that I considered Claire, a friend..."

"To you, did I also seem like a two-faced woman?"

"You did..."

"I see..." Nora Alstreim pursed her lips, "Can you..."

"I’ll ruthlessly decline whatever you have to say..." Davis shrugged, "... But you don’t have to worry. I’ll still stick to my words and deliver Grand Elder Elise Alstreim the Enlightened Martial Surge Pill. With that, she would successfully be able to step into the Martial Master Stage."

"However, if you want something else, you should wait till my mother visits you. Until then, be good as I don’t want to kill you accidentally..."

Nora Alstreim frowned as she became silent for a few seconds. It was unknown what she was thinking, but her expression suddenly turned into a sneer.

"Why didn’t you place a slave seal on me? No one would know even if you were to do anything to me..."

"Do I look like such a person to you...?"

"You do..."

Davis paused before he smiled, "I’m sorry, provocation of that level won’t simply work on me. You need to try harder..."

Nora Alstreim stared at him before her lips curved again.

"Perhaps you should bring your elder brother here because he would have more guts than you!"

"Elder... brother...?" Davis blinked in confusion before his expression split apart into a burst of laughter that he tried to suppress.

Nora Alstreim frowned.

"Isn’t Logan your elder brother, perhaps from another mother?" She couldn’t help but voice out as she thought he was mocking her.

Davis couldn’t suppress his laughter anymore!

"Hahaha! So your intent was to seduce Logan and try to get out of this place!?"

Nora Alstreim became taken aback as her cheeks became red.

How did he know!? It took her so much time and will to make this decision, but it was easily found out by him!?

Davis had his laugh of the day before he stopped and looked at the slightly reddened Nora Alstreim. He didn’t know what thoughts passed by her head, but it looks like she had thought of relying on Logan at this point. Her thoughts were understandable, but as his mother said, he couldn’t help but feel pity for her that she had to sell her body at this point.

He couldn’t help but say.

"if your provocation really worked on me, you would’ve helplessly become my woman in a few seconds..." He warned as he shook his head.

"You don’t even know how to seduce or scheme... I have to admit that my mother and I were blinded this whole time." He said as he walked towards her, wanting to know how she felt through his Heart Intent.

He had to enter the two-meter range. However...

Nora Alstreim’s expression changed as she saw him get closer, "Don’t you dare..."

"Dare what?" Davis raised his brows as he smirked.

Nora Alstreim gave him a death stare and snorted before she no longer looked bothered.

Davis arrived and stopped a meter away from her. Surprisingly, she was...

"Aren’t you calm, considering that I can..." Davis teased, but...

"Claire’s son wouldn’t be a scum..." Nora Alstreim nonchalantly interrupted.

Davis’s mouth slightly parted before he stood rooted on the spot. The next second, he turned back and left.

Nora Alstreim watched him leave before the door closed on her with a loud bang, leaving her all alone in the room as the sound kept echoing in her ears. She knelt and stayed in the same position for a long yet unknown time before a helpless and sorrowful mutter escaped from her curled up lips.

"Grandpa..."

======

Davis walked out of the room and closed it shut. But before it could fully choose, he turned back and slightly attached his seamless soul force to the edge of the door.

If it opened, he would come to know.

In any case, with the sealing formation active, even if some managed to open the door from the outside, they still wouldn’t be able to enter, and the person inside still wouldn’t be able to come out. Either way, he would come to know that someone had entered.

He stood outside, blindly staring at the door before he shook his head and left towards the inner hall where the stairs were present. However, when he reached the inner hall, he saw his mother be seated on a couch, staring ahead at a random decoration as if it held some secret.

He pursed his lips and walked up to her before he stood in front of her.

Claire blinked and finally noticed that her son was standing in front of her. She raised her head as her eyes suddenly started to glaze over before it disappeared, replaced with a calm gaze.

"Davis, do you think that what I’m doing is right?"

Davis sat beside, making himself comfortable before he opened his mouth, "Pushing aside whether if it is right or wrong, Mother deserves to treat these people like dogs on a leash."

Claire became silent.

"Mother, when you suffered under their scheming hands, did they pity you, your father, or your mother?"

"No..." Claire’s expression hardened.

Whenever she thought about her mother, only pain and hatred remained.

"Then what is there to worry about?" Davis shrugged, "Nora Alstreim is merely a hindrance you have to throw to achieve your revenge."

"The question is whether you are ready to murder that tiny soft spot you have in your heart for her."

Claire didn’t respond, but Davis shortly probed.

"Didn’t you break her face because you thought she kept lying to your face? Perhaps, if she had confessed, you would’ve gone easy with her and decided to punish her by handing her over to the Disciplinary Hall, who would give her a death penalty or a similar sentence in your stead, instead of following the Ancestor’s words, no?"

Claire swiveled her head and looked at him with an incredulous expression on her face.
