Chapter 96: Shirley's Acknowledgement
"Besides, when I said let nature take its course, I meant it for everyone. No more matrimony discussions, please." Davis said with a polite tone.
Davis and Shirley looked at each other and smiled. One felt that the other was amusing, while the other felt that the other one was domineering.
"Princess Shirley, let me introduce you to my wife, Evelynn Cauldon," Davis said as he waved his hands to a direction.
Wind converged as it pushed the people aside, revealing a certain ravishing figure.
Evelynn froze there, stunned by his introduction.
Just when she had gathered the courage to step in and talk to Davis, she was caught off-guard by his speech.
Davis smiled, how could he not notice her approaching him hesitantly? He even used this opportunity to shamelessly and indirectly express his desire for her.
Clamour erupted in the arena as the whole crowd's attention was on Evelynn. Gazes of envy, jealousy, greed, and lust were gathered on her.
Evelynn felt incredibly awkward on having the whole crowd's attention to her.
Shirley glanced at the voluptuous figure in front of her and admired those twin peaks, "Hmm, not bad!"
"I know right?" Davis laughed.
Evelynn blushed hard. Her face turned bright red as she thought, 'Scoundrel! Why is he teasing me in front of everyone!?'
"Aren't you happy that you managed to keep him for yourself, Miss Evelynn?" Shirley asked, testing the waters.
"I... I d-don't know." Evelynn replied nervously, her voice meek.
"Hmm? What was that? I couldn't hear you?" Shirley placed her palm beside her ears.
Evelynn increased her voice as she shut her eyes, "I... just don't know!"
"That decides it! Prince Davis, she clearly likes you and possibly is in love with you. I don't know how you managed to do that, but congratulations!"
"By the way, you have my gratitude for killing that bastard. He was just way too much!" Shirley thanked Davis as she felt that the humiliation she received earlier was avenged by him.
Davis smiled, "No problem."
"Then, I'll take my leave. Goodbye Prince Davis, Miss Evelynn." Shirley clasped her hands and walked away.
Just as she walked, she suddenly stopped and turned back, "Goodbye... Ellia, was it?"
Ellia who was silent the entire time was astonished. "Princess is acknowledging me?" She asked in incredulity.
Shirley giggled, "Well you could say that. Your friend here has made me understand that there are always powerful people above you and it is not good to act arrogant all the time."
Shirley, Ellia and Evelynn once again turned to look at those two corpses of the emperors who were just alive an hour ago. They were once again reminded that Davis was just 10 years old, a disciple of a powerful being, and didn't even take him a minute to take down the two emperors who were part of the continent's strongest seven.
Shirley laughed as she left, "Next time I see, you might even be stronger than me, hehe."
"No... that... " Ellia tried to deny it, but no words came out of her mouth as she clenched her fists.
Davis smiled. He could see that her resolve to get stronger didn't let her degrade herself.
He turned his face and saw Shirley's back. He felt a little sad that he didn't get to see her face.
Suddenly, he noticed something and turned aside, only to see Evelynn running away.
He laughed and shook his head, 'It's not like I'm going to eat her, she must've been so embarrassed to be running away from me.'
"Don't you need to follow her?" Ellia asked as she pointed at the escaping Evelynn.
"Leave it, there's no need to be forceful. Let it be." Davis replied, his heart was full of satisfaction right now.
"Aren't you afraid that someone will steal her away from you?" Ellia asked teasingly.
"Ohh... Then they will be courting death!" Davis replied with a slight grin, but his face turned weird, "When did you learn to tease? Who taught you that?"
"From a certain person who always bullies me," Ellia replied with a proud grin on her face. Now that she felt true to be his friend, she felt that she could now tease him as well.
Davis chuckled and shouted a moment later as he laughed, "Let's get on with the final competition!"
