Daniuis moved forward and disappeared into the steam that came from the clash of the domain and the fire previously.
However, the steam abruptly cleared from his view and he saw an unbelievable scene that threatened to flip his mind; his sense of reality.
He saw Jawan being forced on the ground by a long leg, his face half-gone and plastered into the rubble surface of the Royal Palace.
Jawan's eyes trembled as a foot stepped on his face, sinking him to the ground. The shield he had used to guard those fists was smashed into pieces, and the sword he tried to stab with cracked like a stick.
He couldn't even believe his eye!
A person with a strength capable of destroying King Grade Weapons? It didn't take him much to realize that the one stepping on him while grinding his face to meat paste was at the Seventh Stage in Body Tempering Cultivation.
But why? Which expert did he offend!?
Jawan's whole body shook in fear of death!
Daniuis looked at the person who wore a golden raven-shaped mask suppressing Jawan. He could see from those curves covered by the black robes that the other party was a woman.
However, he didn't give one bat of an eyelid but instead stormed off to the place where his daughter had been.
In two seconds, he appeared in the airspace and saw Lucia embracing a man as she cried to tears.
It wasn't Lucas who he initially thought to be at a glance but Glyn, the man who chose to inform him of this situation due to the promise he had made with him.
Lucas was unconscious beside them, lying on the ground.
Besides them also stood a raven-shaped mask person like the previous one, however, he couldn't find whether if the person was a male or a female, or to be more concerned, whether an enemy or an ally.
He remembered that he had not allied with people like them, much less know them in the first place.
He approached them and gazed at the sight surrounding him in curiosity and bafflement.
Soul bodies were screaming like wraiths, fleshy bodies were mangled and grew puss like a mess, it was like a scene from the mythical underworld but he chose to not care about them now.
He stood in front of his daughter but turned to face the raven-shaped masked person, "Before wanting to know the intent of your esteemed self, let me show you my gratitude."
Daniuis went on one knee and placed both knees on the ground before taking a deep breath. He kowtowed as his voice echoed, "I, Daniuis, am eternally grateful for the help you two have given us!"
After a short pause, Fallen Heaven hoarsely replied, causing Davis to not understand.
His mind worked at a rapid pace to arrive at many interpretations.
If it was not Fallen Heaven's doing, could it be the dark speck of light in the sky?
'No, it is unlikely...' Davis quickly rejected it since he felt that it didn't pose any threat to others other than giving him a sense of danger.
'Then what else?'
Could it be that heavens were interfering with his actions, or did his own actions somehow resulted in this mess taking place?
Thinking back, if he didn't bother with Nina, then he would be watching Lucia and Nina, not making them suffer.
So, did their fates of death change once he left to save Jackson Lars and the others?
Could it be that people's fates were intertwined and if one event didn't happen the other would?
For example, Jackson Lars's loss would've resulted in Glyn being saved since he would be able to protect the other while Princess Isabella took care of the owner of the immense vitality which was splattered on the ground.
Nevertheless, he absolutely saw no connection with these two events unless Nina was involved somehow since she had been connected with Lucia and Glyn while being at the wedding hall...
Davis felt increasingly confused about the reason that could have caused Glyn's fate of death to be early as this...
"Father... He confessed... he loves me..." Lucia finally spoke but she still sobbed while holding Glyn on her arms.
Daniuis had already stood up and was in front of his daughter, wiping the tears out of her eyes as a sad glint flashed past his eyes.
How could he not know? Their promise involved this matter after all.
Glyn was with Lucia and Lucas after he had joined the Cloud Spring Mercenaries, along with his elder sister Nina.
He had warned Glyn to not to be close with Lucia, however, the latter told him that he would protect her at all costs and not harm her, even making a promise while he was at it.
At that time, Daniuis laughed and didn't bother with him anymore thinking that Glyn was just another youth smitten with his daughter but didn't think Glyn would really be brave and fulfill his promise.
Not harm her... To protect her... At all costs... Even at this cost of his own life...
Daniuis couldn't help but sigh again.
