Chapter 1501: A Crow With A Plan? (1/2)

'Fast...!'

Davis thought with astonishment as he waved his hand. The big-bosomed woman did the same before they both retreated from the force generated between their thrusts.

”Oh? Not only are you strong, but you also dodged my attack that came from above.”

”Maybe you should've refrained from warning me if you were planning on sneak attacking...”

”Hehehe~”

The big-breasted woman began to laugh cheekily.

Davis directed his gaze below and saw that a fifty-meter-deep crater had formed just from their clash. Furthermore, he was already two hundred meters high in the sky above the surface, so the power of their clash could be imagined. He felt the chills, feeling like he was drunk on power.

After all, he was one step closer to moving heaven and earth!

Nevertheless, he returned his gaze to the female magical beast and saw that she ended her laughter.

When she attacked, there was no killing intent. Otherwise, he would've noticed her before she could even attack.

Was she doing this for fun?

'No matter... It doesn't change the fact that she is highly perceptive, enough to find me in my concealed state. However, it was my mistake. It is clear that I shouldn't have been talking out loud while concealed.'

Davis realized where he had gone wrong in allowing this magical beast to find him.

He clasped his hands and spoke, ”Well then, if we do not have anything to talk about, I'll take my leave.”

”Uh? Wha- Wait!” The woman appeared taken aback, ”Where do you think you're going? Aren't you the one who peeped on us?”

”What do you mean?” Davis sounded confused.

The black-robed woman looked stunned, her eyes appearing adorable as she blinked thrice.

”Still, do you think that you can just fly away? This is a battlefield for us. We fight until we kill each other, human.”

Davis was elated that she didn't ask for him to emulate his soul as he would be caught, no longer able to play ignorant, but it looks like such a reason was unnecessary in this battlefield. He sighed as he folded his hands.

”It doesn't have to be that way, but if you insist, then I'll take you on.”

The female magical beast appeared to be confused as she looked at him with her dark red eyes.

”Human, by any chance, are you from the righteous path?” Her brows frowned.

”I am, so what?”

Davis didn't seem to hide as he brazenly spoke.

”Oh, no wonder you speak in a refined manner. Excuse me, for I have been rude.”

The woman clasped her hands and gave a cultivator's greeting.

”... Okay...”

Davis was utterly taken aback by her hundred and eighty-degree change in her attitude while his battle posture receded. Wasn't she a magical beast? Why was she performing a cultivator's greeting to him?

”Since you're a righteous path cultivator, I'll let you go since you are not taking part in the battle for supremacy over this Territory. However, know that not all will be as merciful as me though I muse that you can take care of yourself with that kind of strength, Martial Overlord.”

The black-robed woman smiled as she spoke while Davis was still a bit dumbfounded.

This was another understanding magical beast? A magical beast that he could actually reason with? Normally, magical beasts mostly relied on reason when faced with a complex situation that they can't solve with strength, but this female magical beast in front of him seemed to be different, like Nadia.

Back when he guarded against her attack, he didn't use his full strength to defend. He even suppressed his power to her level since he didn't feel any hostile killing intent.

”Alright then...”

Davis dropped his hands, clasping his hands.

”You attacked me out of nowhere, but since it was a misunderstanding, I'll let bygones be bygones.”

”Oh~ You're actually nice.” The woman looked as if she had seen a new human species before her expression went doubtful, ”You aren't the devious type of human who's I keep hearing about from my parents, right?”

Looking at her vivid expressions, Davis wryly smiled.

”I don't think so, but you're free to verify that yourself.”

”Hehe~ I'm curious. Maybe I should talk with you for a while to know more about my opponents...”

Davis still kept his wry smile. However, his attitude also changed when he saw her reasonable and carefree attitude.

He wanted to learn more about magical beasts so he could treat Nadia better. However, he knew better not to go to the Dark Moon Empire to learn how because talking with this understanding and reasonable beauty would be just fine.

Although this woman was a crow, she was still considered a magical beast like Nadia. He felt that there shouldn't be much of a difference if they could suppress their instincts and act like humans.

”So human, where are you from?” The Dark Moon Crow asked.

Davis pondered for a moment before he answered.

”In a place where magical beasts like you rarely exist. There's literally no King Rank Species, much less Emperor Rank Species Magical Beasts.”

”I see, so a desolate Small-Sized Territory.” The woman nodded, ”You're from a place where you haven't seen a cultured and civilized magical beast like me, and that explains your confusion about my actions, but if what you said is true, then you must've experienced immense hardships to reach this point.”

Davis heavily nodded as if he agreed with her while the woman still curiously looked at him. She then turned around and headed away, leaving Davis confused, but when he saw her land on a thick branch of a tall tree and wave towards him as she sat, he inwardly sighed, knowing her meaning.

'Of course, crows like to be on branches...'

Humans liked to be seated on chairs and pompous thrones, but magical beasts were quite different. It seemed that etiquette changed with races since he mused that this was her own way of showing him respect while hosting him. She was quite sophisticated, he must say.

His body flashed as he arrived on top of that branch and sat opposite to her while she also sat and smilingly looked at him.
