Divine Emperor of Death

Chapter 1418 Acknowledged?



Grand Elder Valdrey Alstreim's expression looked contorted.

"Nora, are you insane!? Can't you see that you have been manipulated!?"

Nora Alstreim looked visibly taken aback.

Of course, she knew that she had been manipulated into choosing coexistence over battling to the death. To her, that was a delightful proposition as she both got the man she fell for the first time while also managing to save her family from Claire's judgment.

If it weren't for her agreeing to be enslaved, it was unknown if Claire would've taken another approach to deal with them.

However, the love Logan and Claire had shown her could not be faked. She knew that her big sister Claire was overly stuck up to be deceiving people, while Logan was a man who knew how to make love. Now that she thought back at it, even her being enslaved was nothing more than a ruse as she was released way sooner unknowingly.

Nevertheless, even if she ended up being truly manipulated to the extreme where she might be subjected to abuse, she was aware that she was already deep down to pull back because she had already given birth to Logan's child.

There was no going back.

Nora Alstreim bit her lips, beginning to convince Grand Elder Valdrey Alstreim. It took ten long minutes for him to accept the fact that his precious granddaughter had become someone else's woman while being unmarried.

Moreover, even while being berated, Nora Alstreim held strong to the opinion that both their families should work together even if they do not come together. She pleaded that most of the enmity they had for each other was due to the Yantras, who they must unite to fight against.

After thirty long minutes of Grand Elder Valdrey Alstreim looking he had been choked on shit, he finally sighed.

"I can't believe... I really can't believe this... Claire, that woman's too smart. She practically made us kowtow, beg for forgiveness, robbed half our wealth, and even robbed us of you, my precious granddaughter."

"Grandpa, you can't badmouth big sister..." Nora Alstreim coyly echoed, "You couldn't have possibly known what she went through because of our ignorance. If it weren't for Logan and her son Davis, she would practically be in ruins or dead, which I wouldn't have absolutely liked."

"Right..." Grand Elder Valdrey Alstreim sadly nodded, "I suspected that you two were good rivals like sisters, but I literally didn't expect you two to become sisters! In the past, I wrongfully thought you had secretly gotten rid of her but to think it was your subordinate Immeth Alstreim's doing! We were both victims of Zeno Alstreim's, no, Faragin Yantra's manipulation!"

"Grandpa, don't mention that wicked woman's name again. I trusted her too much when I should've kept her at a distance as my subordinate, but yes, our common enemy is the Yantras. We should make them pay instead of fighting against each other."

Both Grand Elder Valdrey Alstreim and Nora Alstreim nodded, finally agreeing that their common enemy was the Yantras.

Nora Alstreim couldn't help but smile as she inwardly released a sigh of relief. Her heart had been beating all this time erratically because she had been unsure if she would be able to truly convince her family. Currently, it looks like she had been able to.

Even if she hadn't gotten their consent yet, it looks like she had made them understand that this was the way she had become, a part of the family that had humiliated them for reasonable reasons, and if they were to fight when they come out despite being self-inflicted with oaths, she would be the one to be badly affected.

Nora Alstreim's bosoms heaved as she proudly raised her chin.

"In fact, my son here has come to take you two out of prison at this moment."

"What!?"

Grand Elder Valdrey Alstreim was given a shock again!

There were still a few days left for them to be released, but in truth, he wasn't betting on it. Instead, like he mocked Davis, he was expecting them to extend their time in imprisonment. It was such a common tactic overused to suppress one's enemies or to simply bully. He didn't expect this arrogant brat to have come to take them out today of his own volition.

What kind of wind has blown to their side?

It was unknown how many times he had been surprised that today his emotions were on a roller coaster.

"Wait a minute. I never acknowledged you as my mother..." Davis smiled in an amused manner.

"You don't have to..." Nora Alstreim shook her head, "But I have to acknowledge all of Logan's children, whether they may be from Claire or his other wives. I made my decision when I decided to wholeheartedly become one with Logan, and that naturally includes his family."

Davis narrowed his eyes, staring at Nora Alstreim in a new light.

"I never pegged you to be this type of woman..."

"What type exactly?"

"Perhaps, a compromising one..."

Nora Alstreim giggled, "Is that supposed to be a compliment?"

"Yes." Davis seriously nodded, "Your existence has made my mother less miserable and less burdened as she did not have to be showered with the blood of so many. I want to thank you for that."

Nora Alstreim looked taken aback, inexplicably moved.

"I've seen Claire praise you like crazy, and I think I now know why... You're truly a good son..."

Davis smilingly shook his head.

A good son? He was far from that as he had done some extreme things like making them battle to the death. He was indeed caring and resourceful but a good son? It was debatable.

Nevertheless, before such thoughts could even be explored in his mind, a complex voice echoed.

"You're already like a family with him..."

"Isn't that what I've been talking about all this time...?" Nora Alstreim looked flabbergasted at her grandfather.

Grand Elder Valdrey Alstreim looked reluctant. He was even stunned when he heard that Logan had many wives, but since his granddaughter seemed to have accepted that fact, he found it difficult to protest. He had already protested a lot, but Nora didn't seem to cave in but instead was headstrong, just like his daughter Elise.

They both chose who they wanted to live with and fell madly in love with them that his daughter Elise didn't even remarry after so many years after her husband died while his granddaughter Nora didn't even share a single word with him while becoming one with the humiliators.

He really didn't know what to feel, nor could he protest since Nora had already become one with them. He was stuck in a rock and hard place but recalling that he didn't intend to fight against them in the first place since he was rightfully humiliated, but more importantly, poorly outmatched, he just sighed.

At this moment, Davis waved his sleeves, and the doors to the two cells opened up.

Grand Elder Valdrey Alstreim blinked before he walked forwards, finding him arrive outside the cell. He looked around, confirming that he was really out of the prison cell before he looked at Davis.

"What about our sealed cultivation?"

"Ancestor Dian Alstreim will undo that..."

Davis replied while Grand Elder Valdrey Alstreim didn't bicker but just nodded.

"Alright..."

Davis turned around and began walking out while Nora Alstreim also happily shot a look at her grandfather before turning around. Grand Elder Valdrey Alstreim could only shake his head ruefully as he smiled, finding the situation quite bizarre while not knowing what the future held for him.

He took a step forwards as he began to follow them but suddenly frowned and turned to look at the other cell.

"Elise! What are you doing? Step out!"

Davis and Nora Alstreim stopped as they turned to look around the beautiful figure who had her head lowered. She trembled on hearing her father's shout but didn't say anything.

'Dark place, restricted, confined, and depressed... Man, she already suffered a good one year that suicidal thoughts have probably taken root in her head...'

Davis couldn't help but shake his head as he walked forwards, standing in front of her cell amidst the confused gazes of Grand Elder Valdrey Alstreim and Nora Alstreim.

"What? Are you not going to come out when I finally changed my mind about wanting to keep you two here till the end of the sentence?"

Grand Elder Elise Alstreim reacted as she raised her head, looking hateful.

"I already told you that I would scheme against you, and yet, you dare to release me!? I'm not joking!"

Davis chuckled as he stepped into the cell, walking around the helpless woman as if he was checking her out before his lips moved.

"It is self-evident that you lost the will to live on that the threats you spout from your mouth are like a joke to me, nothing more than a child howling with a bit of grievance."

Davis stopped in front of her sharp gaze that looked as if it was going to choke him to death.

"Maybe... I'm considering if I should grant you the will to live on..."

Grand Elder Elise Alstreim's eyes deeply narrowed as she clenched her small fists.

"Bastard! If you think you can have me, it'll be over my dead body!"

Davis looked taken aback, "What are you saying? I have no interest in married woman, especially when you still have your husband and already had children."

Grand Elder Elise Alstreim frowned, but she didn't bother to correct his mistake as she looked away to calm herself down.

Davis couldn't help but chuckle, "I was talking about the birth of a new member into the family. Did you know that Nora got pregnant and gave birth to my father's child? I now have an additional sibling from another mother. Imagine my plight, for heaven's sake..."

He sadly shook his head while Grand Elder Elise Alstreim's expression froze as she turned to look at Nora Alstreim. However, more than her, Grand Elder Valdrey Alstreim felt a chill up his spine that he would never forget in his life as he turned to look towards his granddaughter.

He, who was just going to snap from Davis's rudeness towards his daughter Elise was stunned into silence.

"You! I wanted to surprise them~ Why did you do that...?"

Nora Alstreim bit her lips, looking redder than an apple as she avoided their gazes. At this moment, she was truly scared. Rather than telling them, showing them her child would've been more impactful, more convincing for them to become one family!

From ancient times, if two families had some dispute, a child being birthed into the family might make the situation more harmonious, but Davis had to just run his mouth and ruin her plans.

"You... have you really given birth to a baby...?"

Grand Elder Valdrey Alstreim's voice seethed with disbelief, to which Nora Alstreim couldn't help but shyly nod her head.

"!!!"

Grand Elder Valdrey Alstreim felt his head spinning that his face produced another priceless expression of not knowing whether to laugh or cry!

Their priceless gem had really fallen deep into the abyss that there was literally no way to bring her back!
