Chapter 1501 - A Crow With A Plan?
’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-b.r.e.a.s.ted 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."The initial posting of this chapter occurred via N0v3l.B11n.
"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.
Davis paused for a moment. His mask didn’t let her garner his expressions, so he felt that it was all the more stifling for her to be under his unidentifiable gaze.
"True, I’m here to hunt magical beasts."
"Perfect!"
Davis didn’t hide, but the answer he received from this woman left him astonished.
Was she okay with him killing her kind? But then he recalled that magical beasts mostly only cared about their own species.
"There’s someone I want you to kill."
Her melodious voice echoed, causing Davis to finally understand her reaction and also her actions before.
He wondered why she didn’t go back because he knew that her people would be looking for her. Now, he knew the answer. Furthermore, it became a bit clear to him as to why she didn’t ask him to undulate his soul sense.
She changed her plans when she saw that he was a strong righteous path cultivator, intending to use him. However, she didn’t appear like she was forcing him either as she didn’t look hostile, so he went with the flow.
"Why can’t you kill that person?" He asked.
"Because there’s an unspoken rule between our two powers, I can’t touch them openly, but if you were willing to take them down for me, I would owe you one."
Davis pondered after hearing her answer. However, he still felt like he had to know why.
"What’s your reason for wanting to kill that person?"
The black-robed woman took a deep breath before she let out a sorrowful sigh.
"They secretly took down one of my people and violated her. I only knew of it later, but I am still seething with the intent for revenge. However, not one person in my group needs to know about this as we’ll go together to slaughter them and return. The opponent is a Low-Level Emperor Beast Stage like me, so if I had your help, I’m confident that I can take him down myself if you are not willing to kill."
"I see..." Davis nodded.
She sounded authentic and trustworthy to him, but still...
"I understand your rage, but what can you provide me with? I just came here to hunt King Beast Stage Magical Beasts, but if it is Emperor Beast Stage Magical Beasts, then you gotta put down something of significance for me to take action."
"A Mid-Level Emperor Grade Darkness Elemental of your choice..."
The woman’s eyes narrowed while Davis’s eyes widened.
"I’m in!"
She wryly smiled while looking at the human’s greed.
"Still, there are only two or three Emperor Grade Darkness Elementals that I can procure for you to choose from, so don’t become too excited..."
"That’s more than enough unless it’s the trashiest of the Emperor Grade Darkness Elementals..." Davis chuckled.
At this moment, he could vaguely realize the extent of richness the Dark Moon Crow Empire possessed. He didn’t know what kind of status she possessed in the Dark Moon Crow Empire, but if she could procure him a Mid-Level Emperor Grade Darkness Elemental, then her position must not be small.
"You don’t need to worry about that..."
They both smiled at each other that even the woman could feel his satisfaction and when the man reached out his hand towards her, she blinked before she reached out her hand and grabbed, feeling strange while wondering if this was a human greeting when she suddenly remembered!
"How crass...! I forgot to name myself while forgetting to ask yours~" She bellowed as if berating herself before she smiled widely.
"My name is Nyoran."
Davis took off his mask with his other hand and displayed his signature smile, causing Nyoran to raise her brows.
"Name’s Davis... However, due to some constraints, I would prefer if you continue to call me human."
"Alright, human~"
Nyoran giggled as if she was amused, her bosoms shaking along with her trembling body. They both shook their hands with each other, establishing the deal while Davis felt like he had seen a new side of magical beasts.
Like Nyoran and Ancestor Cornelia, they were definitely capable of possessing high intelligence, making him believe that the more the rank of magical beasts increases, the more they become conscious and aware of their intellect and emotions.
