Divine Emperor of Death
chapter-50

"Miss Evelynn, I can see that you are angry for some reason. If I had offended you for some reason, then I apologize. Let's forgot about our status and talk equally for once, shall we?"

Evelynn widened her eyes in disbelief, she didn't think that this little kid would have the capacity to behave like a gentleman.

'At least he has the capacity to think like an adult in this age, guess for that itself I should be thankful. That's right Evelynn, why are you throwing a tantrum in front of a child? Are you an idiot?' She asked herself as she blushed in shame. She felt that she didn't even have the level of mentality that Davis possessed.

When she saw Davis at the hall, at that moment she thought that she should release all her frustrations on him which will make him cancel their engagement. Now all that frustration which made her suffer seemed like her own delusions after he apologized.

She somehow managed to regain her bearings as she finally smiled.

"I'm also sorry for making the prince worry for my sake just now."

Davis who saw that smile was mesmerised.

"Prince Davis?" Evelynn saw that Davis suddenly froze while gazing at her. She asked in worry as she had slightly taken a liking to Davis. She thought that she might have somehow offended him slightly now.

Davis woke up from his reverie as he decided on something. He placed his elbow on the table, interlocked his fingers, rested his chin on it as he smiled.

"You're too beautiful, Miss Evelynn."

*Badump*

Her heart skipped a beat as she froze for a second before feeling happy for some reason.

"I've got a gift that I wanted to present you, Miss Evelynn." He took a chest out of his space ring as he said that.

They both stood up, he came close to her and opened the chest. Inside the chest was a Peak Earth Grade Pill which emitted a unique fragrance.

"This… Isn't it the Core Expansion Pill." A knowledgeable person nearby shouted once he saw the pill.

"Core Expansion Pill? The one that is said to be difficult to refine because of scarce materials?" Another person asked in confusion.

"Yes, this is the Core Expansion Pill which is used for one to advance a level in Revolving Core Stage regardless of which level you are in. It can even increase the chances of one reaching the Body Transformation Stage, hence the scarcity and rarity." Davis replied with a slight grin on his face.

"Woahhh!!" The surroundings clamored and was in awe of the Royal Family. They could produce Peak Earth Grade pills too, but not gift them as easily as the Royal Family.

Evelynn looked flabbergasted.

'What did I do deserve this gift? Could it be that he has taken a liking to me?' Evelynn thought but didn't move to take the gift.

"I insist." Davis said softly.

Seeing that Evelynn still didn't take the chest from her, he pushed it on to her as he closed in on her and whispered in her ear.

"In the chest, look below the pill holder after you're alone."

Feeling his hot breath, Evelynn's eye widened as she blushed visibly.

Davis moved back and smiled at her.

"Since the prince insists, then I won't refuse. I thank the prince for his present." Evelynn bowed slightly as she held the chest, her blush still didn't disappear but she wasn't flustered, she only looked more beautiful. She then put that chest into her space ring.

Seeing that the chest disappeared, many people who were in the Revolving Core Stage were extremely jealous. But they couldn't do anything about it.

"Then I bid farewell to you, Miss Evelynn." Then he turned around and said. "I thank the Cauldon Family for the sumptuous feast, it was delicious. I'll take my leave now."

Davis then left with Ellia and Renard, they joined up with him as he left.

Henry who was an elder and a few others, accompanied Davis until he reached the carriage.

They spoke some pleasantries while trying to make a good impression on Davis.

Davis then bid farewell again and left the manor.

…..

After some time.

Cauldon Family's Manor, in Evelynn's room.

"Miss, why didn't you reject the gift? If you did, then I think that you would have made him so angry that he would have decided to cancel this marriage with you."

"Maisy, you sure can imagine. I don't think that level headed child will fall for that trick. Besides…" Evelynn said as she blushed but stopped midway.

"Anyway Miss, please take out the Core something pill for me to see quickly." Maisy acted spoiled in front of Evelynn. Their relationship was amiable and good since they were together since childhood.

Hearing that, she suddenly remembered the word Davis whispered to her. Thinking of that action of his made her blush a little again.

She nodded and took out the chest from her space ring. She immediately opened it was suddenly anxious to see what was underneath the pill.

"Woah! This pill has a good scent. One sniff and I can tell that this enhances my Energy Condensation cultivation." Maisy took in deep sniffs as she felt intoxicated by the unique fragrance.

Evelynn handed her over the pill and warned her. "Don't you dare eat it! I need it too."

"I know, I know, hehe" Maisy laughed and took the pill from her hands as she returned to being intoxicated.

Using this chance, Evelynn removed the pill holder in the chest and saw a letter and a jade crystal.

'A letter? And a jade crystal which breaks when the other one is broken?'

She took out the letter and read it.

[ I want to talk to you alone, Miss Evelynn. Possibly, during the night when no one is around and able to interfere with our decisions about the marriage. I know that you'll be watched during the night if you go out, so I want you to stay in the Cauldon Pill Store these few days so as to avoid suspicion. I'll somehow sneak out and come to the Cauldon Pill Store in these few days to meet you. I'll break the jade crystal signalling that I am in the Cauldon Pill Store so I hope you will be there as well at that time. ]

'He...he wants to meet me in the night? And alone?' Indecent thoughts swirled around her head as she considered various possibilities. But as soon as she saw it was about the marriage, she calmed down.

She contemplated for a moment before ordering.

"Maisy, prepare a few things, we'll be staying in the Cauldon Pill Store for a week. Also inform my father about it as well."

"Eh? Okay" Maisy glanced at Evelynn for a moment before continuing to sniff and circulating her Cultivation Technique.

"One week, I'll wait for you for a week, Prince Davis." Evelynn muttered softly as she stored the letter in her hands.

It was unknown what she had decided just now.
