Chapter 310 – Palace of the Holy Son
Lucas, Stella, Lucio, and Dave were talking at the table, and Dave told them about many things he experienced before leaving the mortal plane. He mentioned leaving a clone to manage the empire and how he conquered those ancient clans, making them his subordinates.
He didn’t disclose everything, but his methods still shocked them. Upon learning that he was now an Imperial Saint, they were surprised, but they didn’t inquire further, respecting each other’s secrets.
His father and grandmother were proud of him, while his grandfather wanted to spar with him. However, his grandma Stella hit Lucio on the head, and he stopped considering it.
They chatted and drank wine for three days before everyone decided to leave as they still had things to do. Lucas gave Dave his own manor, but Dave said not to worry about it because he wasn’t the type of person who likes to remain in one place. Lucas agreed, but he still gave him his own place.
Lucas was well respected, and their place was located at the core of the Alexander Domain, called Origin City, where the heart of the Alexander Clan was located.
Lucas mentioned that he would bring Dave to meet the patriarch when he had time, but he was busy preparing for the upcoming birthday of the matriarch, as he represented the clan and needed to prepare to receive guests. Dave was astonished but felt it was a good time to harvest sin points. He started to formulate many plans in his mind and didn’t disturb his father.
……..
Dave and Grace were now walking in the streets, holding hands. They looked like a celestial pair, and their appearance matched each other. Many people glanced at them from time to time, especially after Dave’s image circulated throughout the whole domain.
Dave decided to pamper and spend time with Grace, so they went outside to have fun. However, he noticed that everyone kept looking at him, which puzzled him. When he first appeared at the banquet, he received many sin points from others’ admiration, but it continued to accumulate, and he didn’t know why.
Grace noticed his confused expression and playfully looked at him, smiling. “With hubby’s handsome face, your image is circulating throughout the entire domain. I even heard that many women dropped their underwear when they saw your picture.”
Upon hearing this news, Grace found it hilarious and laughed for hours. She acknowledged that Dave was handsome, and she was very attracted to him.
Their first meeting had left a good impression on her due to his aura and appearance. She remembered how her mother had tried to abduct Dave to use him as her plaything, but he turned out to be strong and subdued her mother instead.
Dave even offered to help remove the control of the Goddess of Death from her body, but the process was embarrassing. Although hesitant at first, Grace decided to trust him and realized that Dave cared for them and treated everyone in his harem equally. She considered herself fortunate to be chosen by him.
Dave smiled at her and replied, “So, you’re teasing your hubby now? I’ll punish you for 10 hours straight later.”
Grace got scared and quickly said, “It was just a joke, hehe.”
Dave looked at her with an evil grin, as if he was looking at his prey.
They continued their outing, and Dave showed Grace many places and treated her to delicious food. His wealth was unimaginable now due to his extort..efforts and the rewards he received for exposing the demons’ plans. He also received numerous treasures from Tracy, each of which would cause a commotion in the Immortal Plane.
As they teased each other, they suddenly heard a commotion and curiously went to investigate.
……
Both of them were hiding their aura, appearing like ordinary people, and no one noticed them.
“Hahaha, that’s what you get for offending young master Roco,” one of the men said.
“That’s right, who told you to covet the treasure of young master Roco? You should hand it over to us, or else we will kill you,” another man threatened.
Dave noticed three men surrounding a youngster who was covered in bruises and injuries. Despite his pale appearance, he looked at them with coldness.
“You are bullying too much; this sword was given to me by my father when I was a kid, but you want to steal it from me. You even framed me for stealing, even though this sword is mine!” the young man exclaimed.
“Also, I am not afraid of you; killing here is forbidden,” he retorted, and Dave could see his endless hatred towards them.
“Haha, even though killing is forbidden here, we can still cripple you and shame you,” the three of them threatened as they prepared to attack the man. Onlookers glanced at the young man with pity, but they chose to ignore the scene.
The young man looked at them with coldness and spoke firmly, “You will pay for this!”
Although the young man was only an Imperial Lord, facing three people with the same realm as him, he didn’t show much fear, but he had an intent to kill them.
He unsheathed an old and rusty green sword and slashed it towards the three people.
<Misty Sword Art>
Boom!
The three men were blown away, while the young man remained in his position, but he coughed blood due to his injuries. Unsheathing and releasing such a technique took a toll on his body, and he suffered internal injuries.
The guards saw the commotion, but they didn’t intervene, and Dave realized that they feared the people behind these three.
“Interesting,” Dave said, and Grace looked at him with a questioning gaze.
Dave just laughed and said, “I think the person behind these three won’t even survive for five chapters, ha-ha. Definitely cannon fodder. A good show is waiting.”
Grace was confused, but she didn’t care.
