Divine Emperor of Death
chapter-1276

After some time of waiting before Natalya's room, Evelynn finally saw the door open as a figure dr.a.p.ed in a snow-patterned blue-robe emerged from inside the room.

"Evelynn~ You're here! Did Davis say anything new?" Natalya had a cheerful smile on her face as she eagerly asked.

Evelynn couldn't help but return the smile as she felt that she was right. Like her, Natalya was also always thinking of Davis, and in this year, she was the one who brought news about Davis to Natalya for most of the time when they meet once in a while, so it could be said that Natalya always expected news about Davis from her.

They embraced each other, feeling affectionate before Evelynn held Natalya's soft hands, "I do have some news, but first, won't you invite me inside?"

"Ah!~ Sorry~" Natalya giggled as she held her grasped Evelynn's wrist before dragging her back into her room.

The two beautiful ladies entered as the door closed on itself, but an invisible ripple that remained unseen to the more untrained eyes could be seen crossing into the room before the door completely closed.

"Big sister, sorry. I had to finish the final circulation of the Forsaken Yin Lotus Manual. Otherwise, I would face a backlash."

"I know. You don't even have to explain that... Hehe..." Evelynn giggled.

"No, I took longer than usual, so an explanation is indeed in need...!" Natalya waved her hand, appearing righteous before she giggled along with Evelynn.

The sight of these two women holding hands and laughing in harmony was gold to a certain peeper who remained silent even now.

They sat on a table before Natalya's face lit up, "Oh my manners...! Let me serve some tea..."

Natalya stood up just as she sat, but Evelynn reached out her hand and held her as she stopped her, "Wait, there is no need. Instead, I have some exceptional news to share."

Natalya blinked, her eyes shining with a curious light as she sat down, "Okay, I'll listen to big sister."

"But..." She suddenly squinted her eyes, "Big sister, you seem... oddly refreshed...? Does it have anything to do with this exceptional news you mentioned about?"

Evelynn blushed upon hearing Natalya's words as she nodded her head. Indeed, after that intense session with Davis, she was not lonely anymore and shone brightly like a woman in love.

"Oh, that makes me more curious!~ Something that could make big sister smile bright like a star is worth more than a resource that is equal to an entire year's worth of cultivation!"

"You little..." Evelynn bit her lips as she grinned, "You've become a sweet talker as well."

"Hehehe..." Natalya giggled, but she did not notice 'as well' from Evelynn.

"The thing is..." Evelynn's expression became excited, "Our husband has reached the King Soul Stage!~"

"The King Soul Stage!!!" Natalya stood up as she screamed, a stunned expression appearing on her face. However, that stunned expression faded away as her entire body began to tremble as a wide smile appeared on her face.

"I'm so happy~" Her eyes became moist before she quickly rubbed her eyes, preventing the tears from falling, "Our husband has become so powerful in a short amount of time. He practically caught up to our third sister."

"Practically?" Evelynn couldn't help but feel excited along with her, "Knowing our husband, his soul prowess must be unimaginable that it must be at least be comparable to Mid-Level King Soul Stage Experts. That is practically unheard of in the King Soul Stage, and as far as I know, no one can compare to our husband when his age is factored, Natalya."

Natalya couldn't help but nod twice, "Yes! Yes! What's more, he has now gained a respected and feared title that shakes the hearts of people in the entire Fifty-Two Territories!"

"He has now become a Soul King!!!"

She couldn't help but squeal in excitement while Evelynn, who hadn't thought of the meaning of Soul King before, couldn't help but shiver once she realized the greatness of it. Her previous knowing-all attitude was nowhere to be seen.

"Wait...!" Natalya suddenly blinked while her figure had stopped trembling, "Didn't our husband say that the goal of this training session was to become a Soul King...? Doesn't this mean that he could be on his way back, like even right now?"

"Yeah, he could be..." Evelynn mysteriously spoke as she possessed a teasing smile on her face.

Natalya's expression froze. She couldn't help but blink again, "Big sister, don't tell that he had informed you that he is already on his way back?"

"Hehe..." Evelynn giggled, "Perhaps, he might be right behind you?"

Natalya blinked twice before she couldn't resist turning around. However, there was no one there, causing her to turn embarrassed. She turned around and pouted, "Big sister, you're teasing me now~"

However, Evelynn's expression froze as she looked behind Natalya.

Natalya narrowed her eyes before a smirk appeared on her lips, "Big sister, if you think you can fool me twice, that's a big mistake."

She raised her hand and patted her bosoms as if acting like a hero.

"I, Natalya, am never fooled twice!~ Wha-!!!"

"!!!"

Abruptly, she felt a warm hand wrap around her waist, causing her to entirely freeze. The next moment, the essence energy inside her rapidly churned as if she was about to launch an attack. However...

"It's been a year, Natalya..."

Natalya deeply shivered while the essence energy that surged inside her dantian came to an abrupt stop. A man's familiar voice that sounded beside her ears made her go limp, causing her eyes to become glazed with love.

"Davis~ You're back..." She turned her head around and caught sight of his sapphire eyes.

She didn't even hesitate to reach out her lips to his as she wanted to kiss. Davis instantly responded as he captured her lips and kissed her deeply to share his love. There was no tongue-action, just a simple scene of extinguishing the solitude they felt while being separated with joining their lips.

On the other hand, Evelynn didn't avert her gaze but looked at them in a dumbfounded manner. She didn't think Davis was already here in this room.

That's right. She didn't know that Davis had sneakily entered the room. Instead, she was waiting for a knock on the door as that was their signal to surprise Natalya. To think that he had even surprised her. Her expression couldn't help but turn into a wry smile as she shook her head.

Davis and Natalya continued sharing deep kisses. He didn't stop until she had been satisfied to her heart's content, and that was when Natalya separated of her own volition.

By the time they separated, Natalya's eyes were full of tears while her face was covered with the trails of crying. Davis's heart softened as he turned her around to him and wiped off her tears with his fingers.

"I'm glad..." Natalya's lips quivered as she trembled.

She instantly jumped and embraced him, causing Davis to blink at her intense emotions.

"I'm glad... I'm glad. I thought... I thought you began to hate me..." Natalya sobbed, her body shaking as she held him.

Davis's expression changed as if he had been given a shock, while Evelynn also possessed a similar expression.

"What? Why would I hate you?" Davis couldn't help but ask softly.

"Because you come to see me anymore." Her body trembled as she sobbed, "The last time I saw you when you sent me to the Falling Snow Sect to train, but even before that, you didn't speak much with me. Only big sister came to see me, and she spoke of what you informed her with your avatar. You didn't even use your avatar to talk with me like you did with big sister..."

Davis's expression became difficult as he c.a.r.e.s.sed her back, "Natalya, I-"

"I know!" Natalya forcefully continued, "I know that you wouldn't favor big sister alone, so the only answer I could think of was that you came to hate me..."

"But..." Davis tried to speak.

"I know! I... I was stupid. I recommended you, my little sister. I shouldn't have done that when you clearly were unwilling. I wouldn't do it again. So... please don't come to hate me even if you didn't before... I can't bear that isolated feeling I got when I thought that you began to hate me..."

Davis thought of saying something as his mouth remained agape, but nothing came to his mind. He could only console her as he c.a.r.e.s.sed her back while he looked at Evelynn, who similarly had an apologetic expression on her face.

"It's not your fault." Davis sent Evelynn a soul transmission as he knew that she was likely feeling the guilt of not stressing how he loved her to Natalya, "Don't feel bad."

He kissed Natalya on her cheek before taking two steps back from her. He looked at her face that was covered in tears again, feeling his heartache. Without getting angered or sad, he moved his hand to wipe her tears away with his fingers.

Natalya bit her lips, looking at his expression that still looked soft towards her. She sniffed, feeling like she had done something bad again.

"I'm sorry. I ruined the atmosphere of our reunion." She looked at Evelynn and cried out, "Big sister! I apologize! I-"

"Don't say anymore!" Evelynn shouted as she stood up, her lips trembling amidst Natalya's astonished gaze.

If Natalya kept this up, Evelynn felt like she would start feeling guilty for having Davis all to herself for that last few hours. It might not be Natalya's intent to make her feel bad, but it did cause her to feel bad as she cared about Natalya.

"Why didn't you say this all to me? I could've told you that it was nothing to worry about..." Evelynn bit her lips as she asked. She was rather angry that Natalya didn't even show a sign of worry to her, and yet, she began to pour all the feelings that she had locked up once she saw Davis.

Natalya lowered her head, "I'm sorry, big sister. It was my mind playing tricks on me. I shouldn't have doubted husband's love towards me."

Evelynn shook her head, "I understand your reasoning, but if you really thought Davis had hated you, why didn't you just say it to me? Ask for my help? Why didn't you rely on me? Aren't we sisters?"

Natalya's eyes shook before she threw herself to Evelynn as she embraced and cried on her shoulders.

"I'm sorry, big sister. Wuwuwu~~ I won't do it again!"

Looking at Natalya pour out her feelings once again, Davis heaved that heaviness he had in his heart. Fortunately, it seemed that Evelynn resolved the issue as he saw them hold each other in an embrace while both shed tears. He knew that they were both soft, making him think that they were truly sisters.

"We are sisters, indeed. I'll rely on you from now on, big sister..." After a while, Natalya separated and uttered with conviction.

"Mhm! Leave it to big sister!" Evelynn nodded her head, causing Natalya to resplendently smile.

They smiled at each other, feeling like they had strengthened their relationship by a large margin, perhaps even tearing down a few walls that barred them from becoming close.

"Well then..." At this moment, Davis's voice attracted their attention.

"Let's go see your little sister, Natalya."

Natalya's heart shook while Evelynn let out a knowing smile as she knew that Davis would respond to most of their wishes.
