Divine Emperor of Death

Chapter 500 Freedom And Responsibility

The circular stamp isn’t a major-type seal but a minor-type seal only to indicate that it has not been opened from the time it had been sealed. Although it is only a minor-type seal, it is a Peak-Level Earth Grade Inscription capable of curbing people of Fourth Stage and below from being unable to read it.

Since it was a brute-force seal, with his Gold Stage Body Tempering Cultivation, Davis casually tore the seal and opened the letter.

A spatial ring attached to the parchment grabbed his attention for a moment before his gaze fell on the contents of the parchment.

[

Yo! Drake here...

If you are unable to contact me through the messaging talisman I gave you, you don’t have to worry because I had gone to another territory.

Hehe, which territory you ask?

Of course, you guessed it! It’s the Dual Lotus Manor Territory!

I and Kara decided to pursue our cultivation path there along with my other women.

Haha! You don’t have to feel jealous of me! In fact, I bet you would’ve followed this senior’s path and got some women for yourself by this time!

Well, that’s it and if someone you don’t know asks about my whereabouts, just feign ignorance.

By the way, give that spatial ring to that fellow in front of you, eager to receive the reward.

Drake’s letter was as informal as it could get when compared to Natalya’s letter. The two letters had a stark contrast of both in style and deliverance. And when compared with Tina Roxley’s vague letter that explained almost nothing, this letter told him everything he needed to know about Drake.

’Well, I thought of telling you the way back to Earth but guess I don’t need to...’ Davis smiled as he electrocuted the parchment, turning it into ashes.

Only a spatial ring was left in his hand which he then gave it to the servant before him.

"My work is over! Now I can leave! Master has rewarded me for my patience!"

Davis heard his shout as he turned back and left the gates of the residence. Hearing this from a simpleton who looked like had no care in the world, Davis wryly shook his head.

He felt slightly jealous of both the master and the servant.

Drake was enjoying his life with his wives as much as he could while he was burdened with the task to help his mother regain honor and justice.

That was the difference between independent freedom and filial responsibility.

Freedom is something that everyone yearned in their lives yet are not able to realize it with numerous factors weighing down on them!

Responsibility is something only a few cared about, hence it was considered a principle value and sacred when considered in terms of relationships.

It was his responsibility as her son.

In any case, he knew that he would be burdened with responsibilities when he chose to accept his mother’s affection when he first arrived in the cultivation.

’To tell the truth, I don’t find helping them a burden at all...’ Davis inwardly laughed as he walked.

He didn’t see his responsibility as a burden but a way to make himself achieve happiness by perceiving the smiles of his family. His responsibility towards his mother was a necessary milestone to make his mother finally relax, making her have no worries in the future.

Only through that will he be able to rid of the burden that plagues his mother which in turn will offer him a sense of tranquility and can make him let go of his worries towards his mother.

In other words, it was mutual affection and concern that lets him feel happy about the obligations he does to his loved ones.

If a person felt no mutual affection and concern, then obligations are nothing but a burden that would cause the person to hate the person who they hold responsibilities towards.

Davis was no stranger to this feeling as when he was the small Tian Long, he saw many people, whether young or old getting abandoned in the slums by people who held responsibilities towards them.

This was one of his reasons why he didn’t want to become a person who threw away his responsibilities even though he liked his freedom more than anything in the past.

As he walked, he realized that there is one more matter for him to check but became temporarily unable to do so due to certain difficulties.

At the time before he left for the First Layer again, he had vaguely spoken to Louis Ashton to look after his daughter, Princess Shirley.

But, there was no sign of her, nor there was any sign of Ellia in this territory.

The slave in his spatial ring told him that they could’ve headed to the Falling Snow Sect Territory but his destination was different.

As for their true whereabouts, he could ask an intelligence organization but the only intelligence organization here belonged to the Royal Xuan Family.

He could approach the other peak powers to know more but he doubted that they would have information on Ellia and Princess Shirley.

He garnered only the peak powers like the Tripartite Alliance and Royal Xuan Family would be privy to this information. However, he doubted if the latter would even have a piece of information that pointed to Ellia and Princess Shirley.

Furthermore, he felt that the Tripartite Alliance would keep a tab on the information of the duo since they doubted people from the other side, the Grand Sea Continent, had appeared.

If he actively looked for the information of the two of them, there is a chance that the Tripartite Alliance would look into his background and trace back to his identity or even his origin through some means, such as using that Mystic Diviner to trace him.

So he quickly abandoned the idea to look for them and settled his thought on his next move.

However, he also doubted if that Mystic Diviner was no longer in the Tripartite Alliance Territory because the Tripartite Alliance seems to hell-bent on killing them but still hadn’t found them.

’If they had the Mystic Diviner with them, shouldn’t it be easier for the Tripartite Alliance to find us?’ Davis thought but didn’t ponder too much on it.

He promptly reached the Roxley Auction House, maintaining his anonymous identity. There he asked if the King Grade Medicinal Pills were available but received the same answer.

It was bought out by the Tripartite Alliance in the previous auction.

Davis had the thought that even the underground auction house which would be held in a secretive time would not possess the King Grade Medicinal Pills. Even if they did indeed put up King Grade Medicinal Pills for auction, it would undoubtedly be in demand, increasing the price of it to several amounts.

Davis frowned as he stood outside the Roxley Auction House. He considered the possibility of it being available in other auction houses, and pill stores.

Deciding that it was worth checking out, he went around the city, visiting all the related stores and returned to the residence at night.

The result? He wasn’t able to find the required King Grade Medicinal Pill at all.

"The initial search for the King Grade Medicinal Pill didn’t go well."

Davis reported it to Daniuis. They both were in Logan’s room where Claire was also naturally present.

"No worries, it would eventually be available in the market. We just might have to wait for some time before obtaining it." Daniuis spoke, however, his face was still pale from the lack of blood essence.
