Chapter 1309: Answers (2/2)
It wasn't her intent to harm anyone, but she didn't like anyone harming her either. She felt that she still would've killed him if Aurelius made a move on her. That part of her thoughts didn't change as she coldly stared at him.
Nevertheless, this also explained why he began to act strangely towards her after the second divination failed, resulting in Aurelius spitting out a mouthful of blood and collapsing from weakness before he began to secretly pursue her.
”So that was why you lusted after my daughter! If... If that was the case... You could've purely asked for her soul in a manner of cooperation, and with Tina's character, she wouldn't have refused! Why...? Just why did you do this...!?”
Brandis Mercer still felt betrayed that his long-time friend and sworn brother would do something like this. Their friendship had lasted for thousands of years, but Aurelius ended up doing an immense wrong and became a mindless slave in the end.
He couldn't help but feel both sorrow and hatred.
”Answer him...” Davis added as he sighed.
”...No, to use her Fate Discarnate Soul, she must have absolute trust in me... To make her possess unwavering trust, I had to make her my woman so that I could use her soul without harming her... Otherwise, there are unorthodox and cruel methods to forcefully plunder her soul, but I felt pity for her, so I... chose the former...”
Aurelius mindlessly uttered without even a tinge of emotion while Brandis Mercer and Tina Roxley's expression both froze!
So it was either make her his woman or forcefully plunder her soul from her for Aurelius. This made them wonder if things would've been different if the method to use the Fate Discarnate Soul was different...
However, there were no what ifs in the real world.
”So what would you have done if Tina Roxley outright refused to become your woman?” Davis coldly asked as he had an amused expression on his face.
”... I would use the unorthodox method to violate her, make her give birth to my child, refine that child's blood and soul essence to make a hypnotic pill and feed that to her to make her absolutely trust me before ultimately plundering her soul and making it mine to benefit my path to the peak of the Mystic Diviner world.”
”!!!”
”Ahhh!!! I was a fool to have believed that you were an upright person!!!”
Brandis Mercer roared in rage as he moved forward to seriously beat him up, but Davis held his shoulders, not letting him move.
”It was funny to see you two be moved by his perseverance in not wanting to harm Tina, but his compassion was on the condition that she does not outright deny him. All he felt was lust for you, Tina. I can assure you that...”
Indeed, both Brandis Mercer and Tina Roxley were now deeply disgusted that they wanted to outright kill him now, no feelings barring them from acting on that thought. Before, when they heard that he did not use forceful methods, they were a bit saddened to think that he had met this kind of fate, left without a choice but now, all they felt was hatred.
In fact, they couldn't be blamed for thinking that Aurelius was a righteous person. After all, the Heaven Gazing Sect accepted him.
Even if he was a bit bad in the past, how bad could he be now...? However, they didn't discern his limit to how insidious and wicked he could be!
Davis utterly relished this feeling of revealing a person's true character, especially when they act like a righteous person, but on the inside they were full of disgusting, wicked thoughts. However, at this time, even his face became ugly, his hands subconsciously clenched in rage as he couldn't take all these thoughts being directed towards Tina Roxley.
It took everything within him to not utter a simple command of making Aurelius kill himself!
”Aurelius, you bastard...!” Tina Roxley gritted her teeth as her eyes almost became bloodshot, ”What more have you done to get me...? Don't tell me you were also behind those young masters and old heads suddenly wanting to marry me...?”
”... Yes.”
Tina Roxley increasingly trembled as she raised her head and took a deep breath, ”Was this all to force me to rely on you sooner? What about my little sister's kidnapping? Were you behind it too?”
”... Yes.”
”!!!”
”You son of a bitch...! Die!!!”
Tina Roxley shed tears as she snapped, unleashing a powerful wave of flames at him, wanting to burn him into ashes.
*Shhhh!~*
However, a red-colored domain expanded, stopping Tina Roxley's flames from reaching the kneeling Aurelius.
Obviously, it was Brandis Mercer who blocked her, but he still had an ugly, disgusted expression on his face, wanting to kill Aurelius himself but unable to as he painfully knew that if he did so, he and even all of them might be hunted down by the Heaven Gazing Sect.
”Ahhhh...”
Seeing that her attack was blocked, Tina Roxley broke down as she began to helplessly cry. She no longer wanted to hear what kind of hideous plans he had for her. She turned around and embraced Davis as she began to cry on his shoulders while feeling awful.
It was a repeat of what happened with her biological father, except this time it was someone whom she thought of as her uncle.
Why exactly did all this happen?
Tightly embracing Davis, she cried her heart out like a little girl who had lost enough things in this world.
