Divine Emperor of Death-Novel



Saintess Lunaria's brows furrowed as she conducted the treatment.

Looking at her reaction, Evelynn's heart shook, wanting to ask if there was anything wrong, but she didn't dare interrupt. Clara also held her breath, closely looking at her father's face, which seemed to have somewhat relaxed as he was showered by life energy.

Time passed.

One second, two… three… they waited as long as fifteen seconds before Saintess Lunaria's palm moved. Her fingers danced as though caressing before she made an unclosed fist and lifted her hand, causing a dark yellow sphere to exit from Logan's forehead.

It emitted a strange light, yet it made anyone who saw it feel aversed and terrified.

"Is… is that a seed for possession?"

Evelynn's expression turned hateful. She couldn't believe there was a person who could possess many people without suffering the consequences of soul dissonance. Clearly, although Accursed Warlock Fraser Herrion acted like a crazed bastard, each of his actions was filled with a clear and concise intent to achieve his goal, yet to reach that, they were the sacrifices.

Vengeance swelled in her heart, making her want to hex a person like never before, but she knew she was not a match.

To be honest, she was the weakest amongst Davis's women as she still hadn't entered the Immortal King Stage due to being pregnant.

"Mhm~" Saintess Lunaria sounded contemplative as she held the dark yellow spherical rune, "I'm not sure what comprises of Malediction Laws as this is also my first time encountering it, but it is weak, unable to withstand my Life Laws. In truth, it was hidden well, parts of it hidden in every corner of the soul sea, but with my expertise in healing millions of people back in my era, finding and collecting them into an empty life sphere and making these curses attach to them is easy as flicking a finger for me."

She turned to look at Evelynn and smiled behind her veil, "It just took some time for me to find these karmic curses, so don't worry. Your father-in-law should be all well now."

"Let me see."

Evelynn had just nodded with relief etched all over her face when Guardian Ryheris Yilan appeared closer and investigated the dark yellow sphere.

After a few seconds, he nodded as though he understood.

"This isn't a possession seed. Such seed will carry the will of the user, but this has no such thing, correct?"

"True. I didn't encounter any wills while allowing the karmic curses to latch onto the seed."

Saintess Lunaria agreed, causing Guardian Ryheris Yilan to appear prideful, "So that makes this a curse that has different properties. The lack of will makes it harder to be discovered by the victim or even by Peak Immortal Emperors but as expected of our Divine Saintess. Perhaps, it may activate at a time where a condition is met."

"What kind of condition?" Isabella asked.

"Who knows? Such things are only privy to the caster themselves, in this case, the Accursed Warlock Fraser Herrion. However, high-level curses like these are woven to be taken full advantage of, so they may activate when the victim perceives it's the right time to cause chaos. For example, if the victim of the curse is alone with you ladies and feels that even one of you is vulnerable, the victim might attempt to kill you or do something else depending on the condition of the curse."

"…."The most update n0vels are published on novelenglish.net . (ꜰ)ire.ɴet

"Let's say the condition is to kill the weakest person in the room at the most vulnerable time. At that time…"

Guardian Ryheris Yilan panned his gaze towards Evelynn, Clara, Isabella, Tanya, and Lereza.

Clara was about to point at herself, feeling a bit wry as she knew she would be vulnerable in front of her father.

"…!"

However, Guardian Ryheris Yilan pointed somewhere else, causing the ladies to be shocked as they turned to look at Evelynn- no, the baby growing in her stomach.

"…"

Evelynn stood there dumbfounded as she saw Guardian Ryheris Yilan point to her stomach before retracting his hand.

"Once the curse activates, the victim, in this case, your father-in-law, wouldn't even hesitate to slam your abdomen with all his power, causing your child to be killed from the impact."

"…!'

The ladies shuddered as they heard his cold words. Isabella quickly held Evelynn's hands, giving her some warmth to stabilize her emotions, and indeed, Evelynn did hold Isabella's hand tightly.

"I must say, you're a sharp woman since you decided to investigate this further by having me bring him to Saintess Lunaria for treatment instead of retreating to your island. Your decisiveness is admirable, so it's no wonder that dark star chose you as his first wife."

Guardian Ryheris Yilan praised Evelynn while she remained dumbfounded.

Just imagining the scenario the Guardian spoke about gave her the shivers. She couldn't imagine what she would do if that really happened, but the vague image of her retaliating and killing her father-in-law flashed past her eyes, causing her to shake her head.

She cupped her hands and bowed deeply.

"Thank you, Saintess Lunaria. Thank you, Guardian Ryheris Yilan, for all the help."

"Don't mention it. I'm obliged to."

Saintess Lunaria's charming voice flowed across while Guardian Ryheris Yilan also nodded.

"You can take your father-in-law to your island. All his injuries have been healed."

Saintess Lunaria added, causing the others to bow this time.

"The curse…" However, Clara was still worried, causing Saintess Lunaria to hide her mouth as she silently giggled.

"You're quite the strange one as I've never seen a possessor of the Transcendent Truth Eyes worry for their relatives much. The fact that you're the Emperor of Death's younger sister also intrigues me."

She cast a curious glance at Logan, wondering how this man or his wife managed to have such children of the opposite extremes before she returned her gaze to Clara.

"Do you still find us repulsive?"

"…"

Clara's lips quivered, feeling nervous, but her lips moved, "I do. But if I were to ever raise my hands against you or any of my benefactors, please kill me."

"Clara!"

Evelynn and Isabella called out to her as though admonishing her.

"My brother doesn't have the decisiveness to kill me. Please treat me as an enemy if I were to ever harm any one of my family members and get rid of me."

However, Clara remained firm as she asked Saintess Lunaria a favor, causing all of them to be stunned. Even Saintess Lunaria felt a bit out of breath as she couldn't believe such a young soul had such resolve, but she shook her head.

"Unfortunately, I can't do that. I don't want to be killed by your brother, you see."

"…"

Clara was speechless. She was not able to understand as Saintess Lunaria was talking as though he could really kill her, but since such a figure stayed wary of her big brother, she also felt some pride, causing her lips to turn into some strange grin.

"But as for the karmic curse, I guarantee none of it remains."

Saintess Lunaria reached out her hand and caressed Clara's face, "You're a good child, so take care of your father well."

Clara's body shook. However, she suppressed the repulsive feelings and lightly nodded.

"Remember, If you don't sacrifice for what you want, what you want becomes the sacrifice. I'm sure your big brother follows a similar rule, so he would never put you in jeopardy. Now, go— go and rid yourself of whatever guilt's in your heart as your loved ones never blamed you."

"…"

Clara became teary-eyed, a thankful gaze appearing in her eyes as she nodded heavily.

"Mhm~"
