Chapter 3827 Metenoa Arlain
Divine Emperor of Death
Chapter 3827 Metenoa Arlain
Eyebrows squirmed and the eyelids shuddered before shooting open.
The Metenoa Family's Autarch quickly sprung up as his expression churned in pain, managing to be seated as he hurriedly looked around. A spitting headache kept him frowning but by this time, he knew what he had been subjected to as there had been times where he could see what was going on and hear a few things about a slave seal or whatnot.
What was true wasn't clear but by now, he knew the black-robed people around him weren't to be trifled with.
The fact that he was reduced to this stage by a bunch of Immortal Emperors scared him.
He forcefully moved his ice-covered hand and rubbed his forehead.
"What do you all want...?"
He asked, sounding grumpy before he looked up again.
"Am I a slave now?"
"Indeed."
A deep, manly voice sounded, causing the Metenoa Family's Autarch to turn and look at a black-robed man who was an Immortal King.
"Your soul is injured a lot and your body wouldn't last long if the ice energy's invasion completed its revolution into your soul. The slave seal on you has already been cast. It is up to you to decide whether you want to submit or defy us."
"Submit and you shall prosper."
"Defy and you shall perish."
Two more feminine yet cold whispers echoed in the cave.
He recognized it was none other than the woman who stabbed him with those deadly scythes and the other was that woman who put up the spatial barrier that stopped his talisman's explosion.
"..."
Regret filled his heart and soul.
If only his fire-attributed talisman had covered the entirety of the area, he could've at least used the chaotic atmosphere to escape. No, even before that, he wondered why he had come here. He blamed himself for chasing these people. He felt that he should've stayed with his wives instead of trying to seek revenge for his dead subordinates.
"..."
Davis looked away, barely containing his laughter.
He didn't expect Evelynn and Isabella to add to his sentence. Now he felt like he was part of a cult.
Nonetheless, the seriousness of the situation didn't leave his body, allowing him to recover and look at the Metenoa Family's Autarch.
"You have a minute to decide, so answer while I'm being generous."
His voice was low and his youthful face looked like it had aged a bit as he sighed with his shoulders dropped.
Davis's lips curled. He got what he wanted.
With those words, the impact of Judgment Laws strengthened even more as the other party had just relegated the authority of his autonomy over to him.
Davis bent on one knee and held Metenoa Family Autarch's shoulder.
"You will come to know who I am eventually and should you betray me, you and your family will be haunted by innumerable calamities."
"...!"
"Metenoa Arlain, if you were to ever speak about our encounter to someone else or act in a way that harms us in the slightest way, then you will turn silent and head back to your wives and meet a silent death as you commit suicide."
This was the same sentence Davis used to imbue Judgment Laws on the Metenoa Family's Autarch.
Then came Evelynn's powers, a slave seal using Poison Hex as a base with the condition being the same.
The Metenoa Family's Autarch would be poisoned if he were to betray them and due to Judgment Laws, his actions could be controlled to a certain degree until the judgment fell.
Davis was full of emotion as he felt like he had reached the point where he could karmically control people. Although the effect wasn't nearly the same, he was almost there.
"When you commit suicide and implode, the poison in your soul will ensure that every being in your vicinity will be poisoned to death and by vicinity, I mean your entire family..."
Davis didn't forget to intimidate the Metenoa Family's Autarch more.
He didn't believe a warning alone was enough to keep the Metenoa Family's Autarch silent. After all, Davis couldn't tell what would happen when the Metenoa Family's Autarch finally found out that he had come face to face with the Divine Emperor of Death, a wanted Anarchic Divergent searching throughout the Lower Realms.
That might prove to be even more terrifying or simply spell his doom if the Metenoa Family's Autarch sense of justice was too strong.
"No... please... spare me... I will not betray..."
However, the Metenoa Family's Autarch trembled, beginning to plead as he felt the strange energy in his soul pulsate at Davis's words. It terrified him.
"..."
Davis stared at him.
Although he didn't get to view his memories much, he knew one thing. This man was a rock when it came to feelings and was ruthless in the management of his power but he loved his family, especially his wives.
He didn't let a single one of them suffer in terms of wealth and built a palace for all of them in separate lands that Davis felt like wanting to do the same but didn't have the time, place nor the security to do so.
It was pretty shitty of him to do this to others when he was doing everything in his power to not be on the other side, but Davis's eyes were devoid of sympathy.
"Good. From now, you will be my loyal slave for a hundred thousand years."
"..."
The Metenoa Family's Autarch thought about the timeframe and felt like he could live with that as he was over four hundred thousand years old. All he had to do was keep quiet about this encounter and make sure that he didn't harm this man, right?
