Chapter 107
Davis narrowed his eyes as he frowned . To attain power, he needed this existence . He contemplated for a moment before thinking of a solution .
"It might take you billions of years to remove the seal if you were to leave me . Think! If you are with me, it might only take hundreds or thousands of years to regain back your powers!
"
"Kid, if I haven't thought about that, could you be still talking with me?
" It laughed in a mocking tone .
David smiled wryly but inwardly he was quite angry,
"Don't misunderstand, you'll have your souls in due time . It's just that it might take some time if you want quality .
"
"I know your foolish endeavour of targeting only the people you deem bad, you're quite the hypocrite I must say .
" It sneered in derision .
Hearing that reply, he was quite ticked off,
"I am, I live by my own rules . What are you going to do about it?
"
"Nothing, just give me the souls as fast as you can!
" It replied in a casual tone .
He shouted back,
"I know, it's just that you won't find the quality you're looking for in the second layer anymore!
"
"Fool! I indirectly told you to head to the first layer without delay! You're such an idiot!
"
"Fine, I'm an idiot!
" Davis rolled his eyes . He felt like a fool, trying to argue with an inanimate existence than can talk .
Suddenly, a thought floated up into his mind .
"Hey, you have lived for a long time, right? Why don't you teach me some top-tier cultivation techniques so I can get you some quality souls for you as soon as possible .
"
"Hehe, kid, trying to take advantage of me? Using me will suffice when you're trying to kill a person to collect their souls, you have no need for cultivation techniques .
"
"Hmph, I can't keep depending on you! What if there's a way for you to separate away from me without killing me? And you decide to take that opportunity? I'm not taking no for an answer! Quick, teach me!
" Davis replied vehemently, he couldn't possibly back out seeing that it did not deny his claims . It didn't say that it did not have but indirectly said that it won't give him the cultivation techniques .
"The scenario you mentioned is not feasible and will not happen, even if by any chance if it were to occur, then I would still devour you after separating!
" It replied calmly .
"Why are you so stubborn? It's not like you're gonna lose out by teaching me cultivation techniques!
" Davis complained in an exasperated tone .
" . . .
"
Observing that it didn't reply, he tried another method to convince it,
"Alright, how about rewarding me for my efforts?
"
"You want me to reward you? Hmm . . .
" it replied as if it was thinking .
Davis ginned inwardly, 'It's thinking! I will just have to give a push and those high-grade cultivation techniques are undoubtedly mine . '
"A reward will surely motivate me to work hard . Are you sure that you're not going to use this opportunity to entice me into getting more souls?
" He spoke with it in a weird tone as if he were provoking it into accepting the deal .
It replied as it sighed,
"Hmm . . . If you can get it faster, then it can't be helped .
"
"I hereby declare that for every level that you breakthrough in your cultivation, I will answer three of your questions to my satisfaction .
"
"Really!?
"
'Yes!' Davis nodded his head, but inwardly he was quite complacent with himself .
It didn't bother to reply but continued,
"Obviously, this only applies to your soul cultivation . I can't be bothered about the other two cultivation systems .
"
Stunned for a moment, he erupted with boiling anger,
"Eh!? You!! This is bullying!
"
"I've already made a concession on my part . Now go to the first layer and get some souls for me!
" It didn't pay any heed to his ravings and replied indifferently .
"Souls, souls, souls! Fuck! Are you the Book of Gluttony!?
" Davis shouted in incomparable anger as well as helplessness .
"Oh, that brings back memories . Once upon a time, I had that name too!
" Its voice was tinged with nostalgia .
"Enough! Any more and I could truly rip apart my head and die!
" He clutched his hair and tried to rip it apart .
"Hahaha, you're free to do that!
"
Davis sighed in frustration as he plunged onto his mom's bed .
'Fuck this cultivation world!' He massaged his eyes and slept for a while . He truly had enough of its bull** .
. . .
*Creak*
"Davis?
" The door opened and the sweet voice of Claire sounded out inside the room .
Logan and Clara followed her inside with a grin on their faces .
Davis woke up quickly as he heard the sound of the opening door,
"Mom, you're back! What took you so long?
"
"Big brother!
" Clara came running in and jumped into his embrace .
"Clara! I've missed you so much!
" He caressed her head as he smiled warmly .
"It's just that I was carried away by being able to speak my mind . I was just talking to your dad and sister the whole time .
" Claire replied with a smile on her face .
"Oh . . .
"
"Pssh, mom's lying . Mom and Dad just met with me ten minutes ago!
" Floating in his embrace, Clara whispered into his ears .
"Ohhhh!
" He had a disappointed expression on his face as he glared at them, but inwardly he was laughing his ass off .
Claire smiled shyly, while Logan stepped to the front .
"Davis, I know that words of gratitude are unneeded right now, but no matter what, I must say that I am very thankful to you for breaking the seal that had been placed on her .
"
"Furthermore, I want to you convey my thanks to your master as well . Please tell him that the Loret Family will be eternally grateful for his benevolence he has shown to us .
" Finishing his words in an incomparably thankful tone, Logan bowed and clasped his hands .
"Sure!!
" Davis replied as he grinned . He wondered what kind of reaction would they give if he told them that his master didn't exist in the first place .
