Divine Emperor of Death

Chapter 419 Its Time

It was pink.

Not only did his parents have this pink color on their threads but also his siblings. He concluded that the pink thread signified familial love after much consideration.

Other than the pink thread, they also had some blue mixed in with that pink, leading him to believe that it signified trust, loyalty or amiable relationships.

Because, he saw blue threads from the guards, Duke Evan Cauldon, Hendrickson, Randal and others. They displayed loyalty in their attitudes, making him believe the blue thread signified trust, faith, dependence, designating most amicable relationships.

He guessed that Drake would also have a blue thread connecting to him if he checked in the future... But that remained to be seen.

Then comes the black thread, which he could conclude that it basically meant many negative emotions showcasing hostility. He confirmed this point when he roamed in prison while interacting with the prisoners.

Their hostile expressions were rather straightforward, making it easier for him to garner what black-colored thread signified. There was also Mo Mingzhi who possessed these black specks but was eventually swallowed by the blinding red.

Anger, hate, hostility, aggressiveness were all openly displayed on their faces, and it didn’t take him long to connect their emotions with the black thread.

However, he also saw a dull black that was on their threads which he couldn’t decipher what it meant.

Feeling that the dull black was more like grey in color, he decided to recognize it as grey-colored thread.

Other than these threads he had to think to identify their meaning, there was the colorless thread and white thread which were basic and easier to identify what it meant.

Colorless threads were transparent. It indicated that karma between two people or objects had just been formed, without any or fewer emotions.

If the emotions were intense, then he garnered that the thread would change colors appropriately.

White threads were the most common form of karma threads he would see in his daily life in the royal castle. These white threads indicated that the ones possessing white threads were acquaintances without possessing intense emotions with each other.

Most castle maids he knew had this white thread along with a few specks of red and blue.

Finally, the yellow thread, which Evelynn had been slightly tainted with...

"Evelynn, are you worried?"

Evelynn’s eyes froze as her face turned blank. She instantly shook her head but her trembling lips said otherwise.

Davis withdrew his gaze from her as he went silent. It took a few seconds for him to find the crux of the matter.

"Are you unhappy that I gave my word to take care of Shirley in the First Layer?" He asked as he inclined his head towards her.

Evelynn shook her head faster than the speed of light, however, she slowed down as she slightly nodded her head with a pitiful expression on her face.

Davis blinked as he confirmed his doubts. He held her hand and looked at her eyes.

"Didn’t I say that you hold the initiative? Unless you choose to revoke that initiative and give it back to me, I won’t tangle myself with other women." Davis openly spoke, not mincing his words.

His words did indeed have an effect on Evelynn as he saw the yellow stains on the red thread disappear like magic.

’So yellow meant anxiety, frustration, unhappiness and the like...’

Davis concluded the meaning of the yellow thread and realized this case was one of unhappiness which needed reassuring since the yellow disappeared rather too quickly.

However, it seemed like his words alone weren’t enough to reassure her completely!

He added, "It’s fine if you don’t believe me. Let us sign a Blood Soul Contract in the future."

"Blood Soul Contract?" Evelynn repeated his words with visible confusion on her face.

Noticing her confusion, Davis explained.

When he mentioned Old Man Garvin to her in the past, he didn’t say that he had a binding with him through Blood Soul Contract but downplayed it saying that they formed a less teacher-student like a relationship.

A few minutes later, Evelynn’s expression was aghast, "We don’t need such binding restricting us!"

Davis paused and then nodded his head in agreement. If they needed such an agreement, then it could be said that their relationship was no longer built on trust but a mere binding contract.

A month passed.

In the Royal Castle, things were quite the same as any normal day. The castle guards were on their feet, patrolling the various parts of the Royal Castle.

Even the castle maids did their work as they found nothing out of the ordinary because if they did rumors about the Emperor and the Empress leaving the Loret Empire would have spread far and wide, even if it weren’t in their intentions.

Logan did a final check on what needed to be taken care of as he read the scrolls that were extended out. He gave out a few remarkable commands to the people beside him, especially Hendrickson and Randal.

After some time, he stopped reading the scrolls and released a breath of a sigh. He waved his hand at the others, indicating them to leave.

Only Hendrickson and Randal were left behind, their gazes quite solemn, because they knew, that it was time.

"Royal Advisor, I presume that you know what to do after I leave..."

Hendrickson went on one knee, "Yes, your majesty! I solemnly vow to help Princess Clara take care of the Loret Empire to the best of my ability, your majesty."

Logan cast his view to Army Commander and the latter spoke, "Your majesty, our forces have become much stronger over the past three years with several of them breaking into the Body Transformation Stage. I don’t think any Empire other than the Ruth Empire can threaten us at this point."

Logan nodded, "You’re only a thin line away from the Gold Stage, cultivate hard but don’t forget to support my cherished daughter as an army commander in ruling over the Empire."

Randal solemnly bowed, "Your majesty, Princess Clara has recently broken into the Law Seed Stage and her comprehension of Ice Laws is at the peak of Level One Intent. Although I don’t think I can be of any help in a battle between Fifth Stage Powerhouses any time soon, I will keep the Loret Empire from falling into the wrong hands even if I have to use my life!"

Logan took a deep breath. He had some vague speculations if his two little twin brothers would try to usurp the throne but that seemed unlikely to the tip of his knowledge.

He knew that two little brothers were not scheming hypocrites or else, he wouldn’t have kept them in the Royal Castle without employing a few methods to control their movements.

He shook his head and then said, "I’m leaving things to you two and Clara, so don’t mess it up."

*Creak!~*

"Yes, your majesty!" Hendrickson and Randal both simultaneously echoed when suddenly a person of blinding elegance entered the Emperor’s Room.

The two of them bid farewell with a gesture and left the room.

Logan smirked, "I’m all set. Have you tidied up on your part?"

"I’m waiting for days already. The question is, are you ready to set off with me?" Claire asked with an amused expression on her face.

Logan turned a little perplexed as he cast a confused gaze towards her.

He was all prepared and ready to set out but he knew that his wife knew this point so why was she asking him that he was ready?

"Your... concubines..." Claire hesitantly spoke as she avoided his gaze.

Logan’s mind clicked, ’Ah, so that’s what it is...’
