Chapter 3586 No Way Out?

Davis stared at Kronos Alistair, his eyes radiating a cold glare, which made the latter shudder ever so lightly before he lowered his gaze. He couldn't believe the sheer pressure the other party emulated on him while still being an Immortal King.

It felt unreal, making him wonder what his soul was made up of to be unleashing an aura equal to that of emperors or perhaps, even the heavens but he quickly denied the latter.

"... fine, the way I went about it is indeed wrong, but I don't think I have the patience to slowly court, gain her trust, make her leave her nest, and swear her allegiance to me in a few days, much less years. I'm only fifty, and I have already died thirty-seven times... thirty-nine if I include yours... and I'm still... a vir-"

Kronos Alistair's voice was low before he yelled out, spreading his hands.

"Come on...! You know how hard it is to survive as a Divergent... so how would I even have the thought of making a family until I saw you be successful in it...?"

"..." Davis still glared, but eventually, he softened his gaze.

"The end doesn't justify the means." He calmly spoke, "The means can only be justified by the suffering you experienced at the hands of the target, and in no way did Queen Nadija terrorize you, and in no way should I have killed you just for the power of time you hold. We both are wrong here, so let's take a step back instead of truly becoming evil, shall we?"

Davis tapped on the table with his finger, suggesting that they should take a step back and reconcile.

"Senior...?" Kronos Alistair blinked, "I didn't expect you to be righteous."

Davis narrowed his eyes, "I'll break your bones if you patronize me."

"No way... I really mean it."

"..."

Davis inwardly groaned. This was one honest yet confounding Anarchic Divergent he didn't think he would meet. Perhaps because he had time on his side, he didn't bother to lie for the most part until he needed to do so.

Nonetheless, Davis just did not want to lose his way as greed was the foremost corrupter that turned the hearts of people into something malicious and wicked. If he made an exception and killed for greed, he would do it again unless he could stop himself.

"I have killed more people than you, so let's not talk about that. My soul body will soon bring something that we have to bind, so take some time to decide your future."

"Alright," Kronos Alistair took a deep breath, "What does the binding do to me?"

"A small correction." Davis opened his mouth from the opposite side, "He is the main body while I am the soul avatar."

'I... died twice... struggled against... a soul avatar...?'

Kronos Alistair couldn't help but reveal an unsightly smile as he raised his hand.

"Where should I etch my soul essence?"

"I haven't even written the terms yet."

Davis almost rolled his eyes. He began discussing the terms with Kronos Alistair and eventually decided on an array of rules that they must adhere to and maintain. If not, Kronos Alistair's life would be in Davis's hands while Davis faced little or negligible repercussions as only the superiority over the pact would be revoked.

"Of course, this isn't any Blood Soul Contract. This binding covenant is known as the Karmic Shell Covenant created by one of my wives talented in Karma Laws, so don't bother testing its powers or loopholes. You'll be hurt badly."

Kronos Alistair didn't bother anymore. He quickly signed the deal with his soul essence and bid farewell while cupping his hands.

Soon, he left, checking all the while if he would be assassinated or not. However, such underhanded attacks didn't shower him, leaving him cool-headed before he disappeared into the horizon.

Davis still sat on the chair, wondering if he had done the right thing.

He had let go of a big catch. He had possibly let go of a future calamity. However, his lips couldn't help but curl, as that was precisely what the major powers felt when they let him leave, so he couldn't be two-faced either.

He was willing to give the Time Divergent a chance and how he made use of it was up to him.

Davis's main body quickly returned to the city, though.

He quickly returned to Myria's side. Tia was also here this time, as she was the one who gave him the Karmic Shell Covenant.

"Big brother, I never thought you would use it here as its binding powers are insane that it would even trap an Empyrean while the user is still an Immortal Emperor. The resources I used to make the Karmic Shell Covenant are already gone, so don't expect another one from me until we enter the true immortal world."

Tia pouted, causing Davis to smile, "Is that so? You did well with the dwindling resources of the Astral Forgeheart Minor Realm."

He reached out his hand, patting her head with tenderness before he turned to look at Myria.

"Then can you tell me what kind of Dimensions there are in the true immortal world, the Three-Layered Universe?"
