Divine Emperor of Death
chapter-600

Davis became rather impressed with the female wolf leader. 

Magical Beasts don't know to usually plead as they became aggressive the moment they couldn't obtain what they wanted but this wolf woman in front of him certainly seemed... mature...

In multiple meanings of course.

If it were an act, he could just influence or check her through Misdirection.

Davis's finger slightly trembled and a colorless thread with a few patches of blue appeared in his view. He could feel almost no hostility from the female wolf leader and it became obvious that she was truly here to plead and retrieve the Crowned Violet-Winged Condor's carcass.

He was rather inwardly moved by her gesture.

Davis pondered for a few seconds and opened his mouth, "Well, if you have nothing of value to exchange, why don't you become our Magical Beast Mount for a period of time?"

The female wolf leader shuddered as her expression changed. She slightly opened her mouth and revealed her non-lethal fangs which were just the size of a normal human's canine teeth.

Evidently, her expression became a hostile one.

Davis just watched her expression change as moments passed by...

The wolf woman stared at him with gritted teeth without making a sound.

Anger, reluctance, and helplessness. All of these emotions flashed past her face. Those emotions were clearly displayed as if she had experienced all these once before.

Even though she looked helpless, she finally opened her mouth and tried to reason, "If I move away from the clan, then the clan could be easily assimilated by other Sunset Mountain Wolf Clans. In extreme cases, the clan might even be decimated."

"Am I supposed to be considerate for you?" Davis narrowed his eyes.

This magical beast in front of him was definitely not as innocent as a newborn infant. He could guess that this woman had her fair share of bloodshed within the magical beast territories.

Of course, her womanly figure did invoke pity but he didn't let that influence him.

The female wolf leader's expression turned pale.

"Human! Pl..." 

"Make your decision..." Davis coldly spoke.

The female wolf leader bit her lips as her lips trembled. She took a deep breath and opened her mouth, "I accept..."

"However, I first need to present the carcass to appease the wolves who have lost their young ones!" She growled.

"What if you renege on your words?" Davis calmly asked.

"I do not lie!" The female wolf leader's expression became volatile, "If I renege on my words, then you can kill me!"

Davis's blank face slowly produced a smile. In reality, he only wanted to know whether if she, a magical beast would manage to cast her dignity away and accept to become a magical beast mount.

He didn't really think she would cast her dignity away for her clan.

However, he couldn't find the outlying reason for her acceptance to become their mount. Perhaps she felt gratitude and had some kind of trust in him for being a benefactor, hence, the reason for her acceptance to become their mount.

He extended his hand and gestured towards his back, "Here's a free meal for accepting to become our mount, you deserve it..."

The female wolf leader became taken aback and finally realized that there was something else besides the squeaking infants of the Crowned Violet-Winged Condor. She had smelled something before when she entered but it was nauseous rather than appetizing.

The bloodied magical beast that was reflected in her eyes became dull as if there weren't any life in it. Now that she became conscious of the magical beast, she realized that she felt a faint amount of vitality leaking from the carcass.

Her expression became blank as she kept staring at the Crimson Darkness Condor. 

Abruptly, her eyes widened in lust!

With a flash of her figure, she instantly transformed into her Magical Beast form and pounced over to the side of Davis!

Davis's robes shook while Evelynn became cautious as she took a battle posture, however, the female wolf leader rushed past Davis as if he wasn't her target.

The female wold leader's sharp canine teeth sunk over the Crimson Darkness Condor as she tore away pieces of meat and chewed on it before swallowing it in chunks!

She continued to partake in the feast as if she had been fed an aphrodisiac; as if she had been hungry for years!

Davis looked at the bloody scene and became flabbergasted. Only a single word crossed through his mind.

'Wild...'

Whether if it were her human form's curvaceous figure or the way she ate the Crimson Darkness Condor, everything of her came off as wild.

'Does the fleshy meat of a Seventh Stage Magical Beast possess such attraction to Sixth Stage Magical Beast?' 

Davis wasn't sure about it but he knew that it sure helped them achieve a breakthrough in their cultivation, however, it was only if their bloodline has enough room for improvement in case if they had already peaked out their strength.

Evelynn arrived by his side and nudged him with her elbow.

"What?"

"You were already in the mind to give the carcass of the Crowned Violet-Winged Condor to her, weren't you?" She raised her brow.

Davis smiled and shook her hair with his fingers, "How did you know?"

"That's because you wouldn't have wasted your time talking with her if you weren't going to give her the Crowned Violet-Winged Condor carcass in the first place." Evelynn's lips curved.

"Haha! You know me the best..." 

Davis shook her green hair again and laughed. 

"But I didn't think that you would give the Crimson Darkness Condor's carcass as a reward instead... It's a Seventh Stage Magical Beast, right? Wouldn't it sell for more in the city market and net you an enormous sum?" Evelynn placed her finger on her lips as she asked.

"Evelynn, a wild, grown magical beast becoming a Magical Beast Mount is almost as equal as becoming a slave in human terms. I thought she deserved this meat when she accepted to become our 'slave', so I merely gave a reward to appreciate her because when I meant a period of time, I'll be using her for the entire time we are training."

"As for the Crimson Darkness Condor's carcass, I have not killed it but since I found it first I have a claim on it. However, this magical beast is injured for a long time and its injuries have started to fester from a long time ago already." 

"If I sold this in the magical beast market, sure, it will sell high, but many parts such as organs will become useless in a few minutes after its death because of the already festered injuries. Hence, the price will be gradually reduced to a Peak-Level Sky Grade or a Low-Level King Grade magical beast meat instead."

"Hence, giving it as a reward to the female wold leader is a better option instead."

"However, I've decided to use the carrot and stick method to make her our mount for this period of time. I gave the carrot to the wolf woman for her acceptance to become our 'slave', but I hope I will not have to use the stick method since she seems genuine and pitiful."

"... I didn't think you thought this far ahead..." Evelynn mumbled in a complex tone, feeling a little disappointed of herself because she had not able to completely see through his thoughts.

However, Evelynn came to perceive some of his thoughts, at least, she neared him in terms of understanding his thought process.
