Chapter 59
A day passed after that incident .
Logan felt a burden in his heart taken away from him .
He took care of the matter of those two traitors . He saw that Cooper had a hole in his chest so he didn't suspect anything at all . That hole was created by Case's power, so he wasn't suspicious . Davis did order Case to put a hole in Cooper's chest way before he entered the Royal Castle yesterday .
After taking care of these matters, Logan probed the whole Royal Capital with his senses, but he couldn't find Dead End at all . All he found was a few assassins lurking near the Royal Castle as he killed them later .
The assassins he killed included those two assassins who were named Left Sky and Right Sky . But Davis didn't know that at all . If he knew, then that would have removed a headache for him .
. . . .
"Ellia? Are you ready?
" Davis asked as he touched .
" . . . Yes . .
" Ellia replied with a soft voice, her petite body was trembling .
"I'm entering now . .
" Davis said with a confident expression on his face .
*Creak*
Davis opened the door to the Emperor's quarters as he went inside with Ellia .
"Father, as you requested, I came with Ellia .
"
"Hmm .
" Logan who was seated near his desk nodded his head .
Yesterday, after the incident, Davis was asked by his father to visit his room as he wanted to talk with him about something . He was also then told to bring Ellia along with him .
"Davis, demonstrate your cultivation for me . . .
" Logan said that as he rested his chin on his hands
Davis nodded his head and demonstrated his cultivation for him to see .
Black lightning sparkled around Davis as he emitted his energy from his body .
Then his body emitted a grey aura, as the pressure from his body that was being generated increased .
"Very good! You have reached Peak Level Iron Stage and Peak Level Energy Condensation Stage!
" Logan's expression was one of proudness .
To have reached Peak Level Iron Stage in a few months from Mid Level Iron Stage, Davis really worked hard during the day to cultivate his body . He had the required resources, so he concentrated on quickly increasing his Body Cultivation these few months .
Davis didn't show his Soul Cultivation since Ellia was here as well . Logan didn't ask him to demonstrate it either . It was a tacit understanding between them .
Logan then turned his head towards Ellia . Ellia, who saw that immediately started trembling again . She clenched her fists as she tried to calm down but to no avail, she couldn't .
"Ellia? Was it?
"
" . . Y . . . Yes!
"
"Demonstrate your cultivation too .
"
Ellia gulped as she stayed silent .
"What's wrong? As the Prince's maid, you also have the duty to protect his life and take care of his needs . I heard that your talent was good, so I wanted to see what kind of cultivation level you have reached .
"
She looked at Davis only to see him nod his head gently with a smile on his face . Seeing that she also nodded a little and demonstrated her cultivation with determination .
Lightning sparkled around Ellia as she emitted energy from her body . It was a normal lightning tinged with a small extinction attribute as she didn't have a Lightning Elemental like Davis .
After that, her body's aura emitted brown-red colour, as the pressure from her body radiated a tyrant kind of strength .
Logan nodded his head and commented .
"Not bad for a maid, but do you understand now that you are even more indebted to the Royal Family?
"
" . . . Yes!
" She looked at the Emperor and replied with a brave front .
"Good! You can leave now . I want to talk with my son alone .
"
Ellia bowed and silently withdrew as she quickly walked away from the room .
After she went out, there were a few moments of silence before Davis asked .
"Aren't you going to ask me about it, father?
"
Logan said with a calm face .
"Why? I believe that you have your own reasoning to train her out with our monopolized techniques . I trust your decision .
"
"Father…
" Davis was moved, he thought he would have a big fight with his father just now, but he didn't expect that he would let them off this easily .
"Don't give me that look . If the deceased Royal Family was still alive, you would've been executed for handing our secret techniques to a mere maid . But since I'm the Emperor now, I get to decide the rules . And since you're my son, you get a lot of leeway at that .
" Logan grinned with a profound expression on his face .
"Just make sure that those techniques don't get leaked for some reason .
" Logan frowned .
Davis chuckled .
"I will, that goes without saying .
"
Logan then nodded his head, satisfied with the answer his son gave .
"And what was it that you said that you wanted to talk to me before?
" Davis then asked, curious as to why his father called him here .
"Yes, that was the main reason I called you here,
" Logan replied as he took a deep breath .
"Do you know how I met your mother? Do you know how we fell in love with each other
"
"My mother? Father, did you just call me here to talk about your love story?
" Davis chuckled .
"Haven't you ever thought about your mother's parents? Haven't you ever thought about why your mother doesn't talk about her origins?
"
"Huh . . . Maybe because my mother's parents are dead?
" He more or less assumed it like this .
Logan shook his head .
Davis got a bad feeling about this .
"Why are you now suddenly asking this?
"
"You met the Ruth Empire's Empress, right?
" Logan didn't answer but asked a question instead .
"Hmm, I remember, Empress Isabella Ruth .
" Davis nodded his head . His mind couldn't help but trail off to a glamorous world .
'Why is he bringing her up now? It can't be that she is my mother's sister or something like that, right?' He thought incredulously .
