Divine Emperor of Death

Chapter 4029 Spending Time With His Children

Chapter 4029  Spending Time With His Children

After exchanging a cup with everyone, Davis and the others enjoyed a wonderful feast that Esvele brought.

There were five different main ingredients, five different magical beasts on the table, all Immortal Emperor Beast meat.

The dishes consisted of round dumplings made from Golden Starlight Crane meat, spicy and roasted steak made from Ember Flame Fox meat, broth made from White-Winged Tiger meat and bones, honey-coated meat cubes from Storm Eye Panther, and spicy fried rice using Fire Phoenix or Glacial Harmony Carp meat.

There was too much food to go around, so no one hesitated to pick their poison and eat.

During the feast, Davis interacted with his children while having Sheria in his embrace and feeding her. She was now four years old, and her golden hair was now at shoulder's length. After returning from playing with the other children, she instantly pounced on him, giggling excitedly for no reason other than she was with him.

Shea could only melt when she saw this scene.

Quickly, the others also made it back, even the ones who had run away thinking it was one of those boring meetings.

Aurelia held Azariel's tiny hand as they sat beside Davis to the left, waiting to have him feed them too. The former was five years old, while the latter was one and a half years old, able to articulate thoughts with a few words. Viridia was also in the hall, but she was with her mother, Evelynn.

On the other hand, Eterna and Celestia had Lucian in between them, and they personally fed him while Davis occasionally fed Eterna and Celestia.

He was feeding them customized food according to their small diet, so it was not a problem for them to consume what he was providing them.

"Papa, ahn~"

Eterna opened her mouth, causing Davis to reach out his hand and feed her.

Looking at the beautiful crimson hair she inherited from her mother and his sapphire eyes, he gazed at her fondly, "Eat well and grow up quick."

"Mhm~" Eterna ate from Davis's hand and cooed in delight before swallowing and shaking her shoulders while looking pitiful, "No, I want to be treated with care like this all the time by father. If I grow up, I'm sure you'll also say that I have to stay away from boys, including yourself."

"Oh?"

Davis raised his brows as he looked at their mothers.

It seemed like they already started teaching Eterna and Celestia about relations with the opposite gender. They were seven years old, but their mothers were right. They were pretty casual and easygoing with their behavior and left them to their devices, allowing them to do whatever they wanted so far, but now they would have to teach the social norm.

"Yes, you should listen to your mothers. You should also start to maintain distance from me as you grow up, but not now. Come here, my little baby."

Davis wrapped his arm around her small frame and hugged her from the side as he kissed her forehead, causing her to giggle cheekily. She wrapped her arms around him and kissed his cheek. It made Davis laugh and give her another mouthful of rice and meat.

"Not fair~" Celestia fumed with her lips pursed.

She sat away from him since she had Lucian by her side while feeding him slowly, so she was unable to reach him.

"Papa will come to you after feeding them, Celestia."

Davis said in a soft voice, causing Celestia to slowly nod, "Okay~ I'll wait…"

Eterna extended her tongue teasingly and held her father more firmly, causing Celestia to inwardly fume. However, Celestia's lips curled as she flicked her purple hair back, her sapphire eyes filled with battle intent.

"Elder sister, I'll let you have father for now, but sooner or later, he's mine. It can't always go your way."

"Hehe~" Eterna giggled, "Finally feel like challenging me again? Don't blame me if you lose."

"Aiya!" Davis looked troubled, "Don't fight amongst yourselves. Otherwise, father will not play with you."

"No!~"

The two of them shouted while the two babies, Azariel and Lucian, shuddered from fright at the same time, their expressions quavering.

"Elder sisters, you two always make trouble." Aurelia frowned. Her features were practically similar to that of Sophie, possessing similar blonde hair and facial features but she also possessed Davis's sapphire eyes.

"Sorry~" Eterna and Celestial apologized.

Aurelia and Celestia instantly fed Azariel and Lucian and held them close, saving them from crying.

"Phew…" Davis sighed in relief.

However, he couldn't hide his smile as he saw the siblings take care of each other. The elder sisters knew how to take care of their younger brothers, and the third sister, Aurelia, knew how to deal with the first and second sisters while being two years younger. It wouldn't be something that one could find in an imperial family, making his heart swell with affection.

"You're all my precious dewdrops. I can't bear to see you all fight, but rivalry is good. Your mothers also occasionally challenge each other and improve their skills. It will help you all get stronger."

"We know. Don't worry about us~" Eterna sassily said as she flicked her hand, "In fact, I wanted to ask when father would train us. You're not going on another journey, are you?"

"That's difficult to say…" Davis chuckled wryly, "I could be leaving, but I would most likely be staying here and cultivating. Don't worry. I will teach you a lot of techniques and spend a lot of time with you as long as you all finish your classes and learn."

"Waaa~"

Eterna let out a disappointed sound as she slumped into his embrace, "Father is as just as bad as our mothers. I thought you would take our side."

Davis chuckled. He fed Sheria another mouthful of rice and held Eterna close, "Father would do everything in his power to let you all have a childhood, but I can no longer be as choosy as before. If your mothers and I give you something that is difficult to accomplish, then think of it as something that is advantageous for you in the future. Do you also hear, Celestia?"

"Yes, father~" Celestia replied as she raised her fist, "Unlike elder sister who likes to fool around, you can depend on me to protect everyone."

"Ha! As if you're stronger than me~" Eterna sneered.

"Elder sister," Celestia didn't seem provoked. She merely smiled, "You're only strong because I keep getting stronger. Otherwise, you wouldn't even be interested in cultivating."

"No way! You're full of yourself-"

"…" Davis saw them fight just after he said not to fight.

He knew children wouldn't listen, but he didn't think it would be this bad. On the other hand, his beauties all obediently listened.

Nonetheless, he knew Eterna and Celestia were more knowledgeable as they had seen their mothers compete in the Candidacy and understood the situation of their family, that they were the ones being hunted due to being Divergents. Their third sister, Aurelia, would also be exposed to this situation sooner or later. In fact, she already knew a few more matters than she liked to reveal that she knew.

Davis guessed that the time to reveal their situation was ripe, forcefully so.

'But… that can wait a few months…'

Davis continued to feed them all. They never left, sticking with him like glue.

He had been keeping an eye on all of them and having fun with them in their classes with the avatar, so he knew their personalities, likes, and dislikes.

Eterna was easygoing, frivolous, yet sharp as a bird.

Celestia was firm and stubborn but not hot-headed. In fact, she grew cunning, playing the long game with her elder sister, sometimes intentionally losing.

It only reminded him of himself. Since Eterna was sharp, she knew this but always felt that she was the elder sister and the most powerful, so she never gave up her position.

As for Aurelia, she was just like Sophie; she was focused and determined enough to do something she set out to do, but she also possessed a level-headed mentality, as she could keep up conversations with the adults. She also had a witty tongue, so if confronted, she would leave most speechless.

That was why Eterna and Celestia were careful in front of her.

Sheria was still too little to say anything about her, but she was already four years old and knew how to speak; she acted like she was the cutest, seeking attention from everyone, including him the most. As long as she was with him, she acted like the cutest girl in the world, never disobeying his words.

He loved her very much.

This left Azariel, Viridia, and Lucian, but all three were still babies who were no more than one and a half years old.

They could speak a bit and were aware of a lot of things, still observing their surroundings and growing, but with elder sisters like Eterna and Celestia, they could be overwhelmed sometimes. The three of them were always together, and the mother who spent the most time with the children was indeed Shea.
