Divine Emperor of Death-Novel

While Drake and Davis kept arguing with each other as they disbelieved each other’s statements, Kara had a disheartened expression on her face.

"What do you think, Kara?" When Drake directed his question to her, there didn’t seem to be any reply from the latter.

He looked over and saw Kara deep in thought with a strange expression on her face.

"Kara?" Drake called out again.

This time, she seemed to come out of her thoughts and looked at him.

"What?" She asked.

"What’s wrong?" Drake asked worriedly.

Kara turned silent, a moment later, she opened her mouth, "It’s just I... remembered Wynn..."

Drake furrowed his brows, "Is that your magical beast pet?"

"Yes..."

"I see..." Drake sighed deeply.

The woman he loved has a scar that couldn’t be healed easily. He couldn’t help but feel sad for her loss.

But was that the only loss she experienced? Certainly not as she had lost her entire family. The weight of her burdens and trials was as vast as the mountains in this area.

Davis looked at the two of them and asked, "What is a Beast Tamer?"

He had heard about this profession in hearsay before, so he wanted to know more about it.

"Seriously, you don’t know?" Drake looked at him in astonishment and so did Kara.

"Obviously, I know they could tame Magical Beasts but what else is so special about it that it was turned into a profession?" Davis wasn’t embarrassed at all by his little knowledge.

There were so many things he wasn’t sure about and things that he hadn’t even heard about.

If he is going to get embarrassed for each and everything he wasn’t sure about, then he would have to really stay in his home and never leave again, afraid of being mocked.

Drake nodded, "As you already know, Magical Beasts are wild creatures which are not easily tameable because of various reasons."

"But this doesn’t apply to all Magical Beasts, for example, if the Magical Beast is with you from the moment it is born, it will naturally treat you like its parents or kin."

"But it couldn’t be said to be the same about Magical Beasts that have grown and even came to see humans as enemies."

"That’s where Beast Tamers come in... They can placate and tame them with relative experience rather than the average cultivator."

"But if that was just the case, then it wouldn’t have become a profession."

"The reason it became a profession was that they could use their own cultivation to increase their tamed beasts through a unique method!"

Davis nodded his head upon hearing his explanation though his expression turned weird, "Unique method? Could it be..."

"No..." Drake looked at him knowingly.

"Oh? You knew what I was thinking?" Davis raised his brows.

Drake didn’t reply but his eyes told it all.

They both looked at each other and spoke at the same time, "Ah, I see you’re a man of culture as well..."

"Pfftt, hahaha~" Davis and Drake laughed at each other as they shook their heads.

Kara looked at them in a suspicious light and wondered why these two were acting like they were suddenly close, ’What are these two talking about?’

"Can we continue to hunt now?" Kara pouted in a displeased manner.

These two always seem to talk about things that didn’t make sense to her.

"Of course!" Drake replied in a joyful tone.

Except for Kara who got emotional, none of them dropped their guard during the time they discussed having pets.

So they didn’t encounter any danger while traversing around the outskirts of the inner region.

Soon, an hour passed by in the blink of an eye.

Six hundred meters from where they were, the trio spotted a Mid-Level Grand Beast Stage Magical Beast.

Davis promptly disappeared in the presence of the duo the moment he discovered the magical beast.

Using Dark Concealing Shroud Art became a habit, and he could cast that art in an instant, making people lose sight of him as long as they do not have a cultivation base above his Soul Forging Cultivation.

Drake and Kara instantly went into hiding as they slowly approached the magical beast with careful and silent strides.

The first strike had to be a preemptive blow!

They had their own techniques to approach the magical beast stealthily.

The trio knew that, so they surrounded the magical beast slowly.

Drake wasn’t worried about the chances of taking down the magical beast. With the three of them acting together, he was confident of bringing down the magical beast even when facing it head-on.

But to conserve the group’s energy, they first had to make a preemptive strike and severely wound it.

Drake knew this, so did Kara and Davis.

’There are a lot of snakes in this mountain...’ A stray thought flashed past Davis’s mind.

Perhaps, it was because of the mountainous forest region, the majority of the magical beasts here tended to be variants of snakes.

Davis looked at the enormous snake that coiled itself around a tree with a wide trunk.

The tree itself was 20 meters in height, and the snake looked around 10 meters in length but since it was coiled around the tree, he knew it was more than 20 meters.

The snake had vicious eyes and it seemed to be in its own world, pondering about something. It’s sharp yet twisted tongue, hissed occasionally, probably out of habit.

Davis closed in on it until he was no more than 30 meters away from it, waiting for the two of them to distract it.

He maintained a cautious distance because the last time he neared a High-Level Grand Beast Stage Magical Beast, he was found when he was 100 meters near it.

But this snake was just a Mid-Level Grand Beast Stage Magical Beast, so he didn’t need to too wary of it.

So, he determined that 30 meters should be a safe distance even if it in the off-chance that it discovers him.

’I’m already at Low-Level Elder Soul Stage, I don’t need to fear this Mid-Level Grand Beast Stage Magical Beast, right?’ Grinned Davis as he was convinced by his own prowess.
