<h4>Chapter 118: Spection</h4>


    "You! I''m not a scumbag!" Davis tried to stand up but was inadvertently suppressed by her vigorous soul force.


    "I assume that your silence in this matter means a vivid yes… Then I hope you don''t regret itter on. Hmm? What, you ask? About the fact that you missed the perfect opportunity to kill me!"


    The uncannyughter of the snow-white girl echoed throughout the area!


    Davis abruptly stood up and staggered, but the moment he looked in her direction, he stared at nothing but an empty space.


    "She disappeared…" Narrowing his eyes, he looked left and right and realized the pressure on him had disappeared. It left apletely bad taste in his mind, as he was totally ignored and one-sidedly crushed to the ground.


    However, more than that, that entity had taken away Ellia''s body!


    "Davis!" At that moment, Logan who had been suppressed by the soul force quickly made his way to him.


    Davis looked at his father who had a solemn expression on his face.


    Logan stood beside him as he held his shoulders, "What exactly happened!?"


    Shaking his head, Davis replied as he felt his headache, "I don''t know. Ellia suddenly turned into a nonsense-spewing white witch after she experienced a breakthrough and disappeared."


    Logan became taken aback before he hurriedly checked Davis''s injuries, "Are you injured?"


    "I''m fine, but my soul is injured. I''ll go back to the study to recuperate."


    Davis replied as he heaved a rather painful sigh. He felt saddened at Ellia''sdisappearance and to further worsen it, he still had no idea of what really happened to Ellia.


    How can an unknown existence suddenly take over her? Even if some existence intruded into the Royal Castle, shouldn''t he be its prime target?


    ''The unknown existence is female? Hence, she chose Ellia rather than me?''


    "Alright, make sure to heal yourselfpletely…" Logan uttered as he checked his surroundings, but if one carefully looked at him, they could see that he was trembling slightly.


    Davis could tell that he was quite shaken from the events that had happened just now. He couldn''t me him because the pressure he experienced had frightened the soul out of him as well. The pressure that snow-white girl let out was quite intimidating, to say the least.


    "Father, there''s no need to worry. She left, but didn''t cause any causalities."


    Logan looked at him and finally heaved a sigh of relief before widening his eyes incredulously, "You''re right… But how did she? Wait! Did you say Ellia? How did she gain that much power!?"


    Davis became taken aback as he mused, ''Was he that cautious when he came here? He must be scouring with his Soul Sense the entire Royal Capital right now…''


    "I don''t know, it might be because she was possessed by some unknown existence. The only matter I''m sure of is that body is undoubtedly Ellia''s!" Davis said as he gritted his teeth.


    Anger surged in his eyes as he thought of Ellia''s innocent smile and tender eyes turning into a cold one.


    Walking away silently, he headed to the study while ire arrived at the scene before she started to investigate.


    ======


    A day passed before things turned calm, but at that moment a certain piece of news exploded in the Royal Capital.


    "The High Line ve Traders had been exterminated?" Davis questioned as his pupils flickered.


    ire nodded her head, "More than ten thousand people who belong to it are dead. Witnesses say that they saw a little girl with ck and white hair flying around the headquarters of the High Line ve Traders."


    He narrowed his eyes as he thought, ''Strange, isn''t the headquarters of High Line ve Traders the ce where Ellia grew up?''


    "They were the ones who auctioned off Ellia." Seeing his expression, ire confirmed his thoughts.


    "But it doesn''t make any sense! Don''t tell me that the one who possessed Ellia wanted to help her get revenge? If that is so, then why did she try to kill me?" David had a frustrated look on his face.


    Yesterday, after he had returned to the study, he questioned Death Book but it was not at all willing to answer. It said that it was only willing to tell when he reaches the next level in Soul Forging Cultivation.


    On top of that, even if he had wanted to confront with the possessed Ellia, it was not possible as he was overwhelmingly weak in front of her Soul Forging Cultivation.


    "What if it turns out to be the same case as you?" ire suddenly asked with a concerned expression on her face.


    "Same case as me?" Instantly, he thought of his origin and how he came to this world, ''A transmigrator?''


    He quickly erased the thought and looked at her.


    ire was also looking back at him as they came to an understanding and said at the same time, "A reincarnator!"


    Davis instantly stood up as he banged the table, "It all freaking makes sense! All the weird and suspicious actions that Ellia did before was undoubtedly under the influence of her previous incarnation!"


    His eyes glowed as he became fifty percent sure of his spection.


    He then widened his eyes as he clutched his head, "Ellia mentioned that she had been experiencing nightmares for about a month! I am an idiot! If I had just listened to her problems, then I should''ve been able to do something about it!"


    *Paah!!~*


    ire slightly pped him with an angry expression on her face, bringing him out of his self-me session, "Don''t be so arrogant! Your master might have noticed but didn''t do anything to stop her previous incarnation from taking over her body! What makes you think you could have done something about it?"


    Davis went silent as he couldn''t rebuke his mother''s statement.


    "Leave her!" ire''s expression became serious.


    "But mother! No way!" Davis instantly rejected as he shook his head and stepped back.


    ire also shook her head hurriedly, "I''m not asking you to leave her permanently, I''m asking you to be strong with the help of your master. Once you have enough strength, you can save her then if it is possible!"


    Davis nodded nkly he heard his mother, "Alright, I''ll do as mother says…"


    ire then hurriedly embraced him, "Good child…"


    She looked at his calm face, but she knew that he must have taken a huge blow by not being able to save Ellia. She had been not able to save her father all this time, so she knew the pain of not being able to save their loved ones.


    ire caressed his head as she tried tofort him. Davis stayed silent as he thought about what he could have done in that scenario but nothing came to his mind.


    The Death Book wouldn''t provide him with any help unless he broke through, but to breakthrough, he needed to kill the emperors who had a good rtionship with him.


    At that moment, he got a sudden urge to kill them to make himself powerful, but feeling the warmth from his mother''s embrace, he slightly shook his head as he dissolved that thought.


    It felt like he was stranded in an ind all alone by himself without any help, except he was bathing in the warm sunlight which mended his soul to an extent.


    Suddenly he felt his soul and heart beating in resonance, it was as if they were sinking in harmony, he felt as if he were floating in the warm sky.


    He saw a golden light, floating in the airspace above him. He felt like he had to grab it no matter what, but when he tried, he couldn''t move his body.


    The feeling of harmony disappeared and he was back in his mother''s embrace. He removed her hands and looked at her in confusion.


    "What?" ire asked as he looked at his confused face.


    Davis then exined it to her on what he had felt like just now.


    As he was exining, ire''s expression changed midway into astonishment beforeter turning into excitement.
