Chapter 3393 Treats
"Good girl. Here, have a flame-attributed candy~"
Although Calypsea was well-behaved, anyone with a perceptive gaze could notice she was mildly restless, wanting to do something.
Davis imagined that it was her innate instinct to destroy acting up, so every now and then, he stopped comprehending spatial runes and took Calypsea out to the towns. She didn't intrude on the mini realm as she was told to wait outside while Stella kept watch on her and played with her, going to and fro between the mini realm and the exit every now and then.
He now handed Calypsea a flame-attributed candy that seemed to be called Fiery Delights.
It appeared to be sweet in the form of a spherical-shaped candy the size of a pigeon egg, each one flickering with a tiny, mesmerizing flame inside while emitting a warm glow. Despite the temperature, the candy didn't seem to melt at all, which surprised Davis.
It was made using Immortal Grade ingredients and wouldn't fancy Calypsea's eyes at any moment of the day. However, she relished its taste and demanded more of it, so Davis bought her a lot of Fiery Delights.
He also popped one in his mouth, feeling a spectrum of sweet taste explode in his mouth. It felt like his tongue was lit on flames, but it wasn't painful. Instead, a gentle warmth spread from his mouth throughout his body.
After some negotiation, he also bought the candy recipe for a large sum of a million Mid-Level Immortal Crystals, practically making the gentle shopkeeper prostrate in reverence and thank him profusely because he seemed to be in financial trouble.
Fortunately, the shopkeeper didn't recognize him as he was wearing a mask to hide his appearance. Otherwise, the entire town would've become a ghost town as his infamy was widespread, regardless of whether it was the truth or not.
Of course, Davis knew he overpaid, but considering the value it possessed to Calypsea, he should've given a million High-Level Immortal Crystals instead. He felt that the price he paid was rather cheap.
Nonetheless, he instructed Mingzhi to find the best confectioner in the First Haven World in order to use the candy recipe and find some Immortal Emperor Grade ingredients of the destructive fire attribute to keep Calypsea entertained. He imagined a lollipop of this nature in her mouth, which occupies her desire for destructive flames should be good enough to calm her instincts for destruction.
Calypsea was indeed high maintenance, but he didn't care because he created her.
He was now too fond of her to just leave her be.
He also wished he had brought his children out to explore as well, but unlike Calypsea, they could in no way withstand any sudden assassination attempts.
Davis knew all it took was one moment to lose something important to him.
There was no suspicious activity in his vicinity, but he didn't forget people like Niel Bladeheart's parents existed, like the Saints and Saintess.
They were peak existences who could not be underestimated. He didn't think assassins of that kind of cultivation existed, but if one old fart decided to remain because he had some kind of ambition like Reselius Zenflame and decided to target him and his family, he couldn't cry about it, could he…?
Davis smiled as he turned around and also gave Clara a Fiery Delight.
She maintained her cold frame, but it melted upon eating the Fiery Delight, which made him smile more.
Clearly, his little sister also loved it.
Davis imagined that he should bring a confectionery to his city soon and not let Mingzhi carry the burden of making sweets, considering the desire for sweets his women had. That's why he also told her to hire a few female confectioners whom they could trust. After all, assassins also use other identities to get close to their targets, and what better identity was there other than to act as a chef or something that makes the target desire?
"Brother, I had a bit of fun. Let's return…"
Clara said as she finished eating a cotton candy.
Davis blinked, wanting her to have more fun, but his little sister was pretty studious.
This was the fourth time she said she wanted to return in an hour, so he no longer made her stay. He returned with the two of them and made Calypsea stay outside since her presence would be an instant provocation for the Voidslime Realm Eater.
Considering Calypsea's cultivation, it would directly escape rather than stay for a fight, according to Stella.
After returning to the place of comprehension in front of the Voidslime Realm Eater, he woke up all his women.
They could be seen visibly panicked as they were indeed caught in Voidslime Realm Eater's vile trap despite their improvements in Space Laws. However, he didn't blame them or console them; he praised them and told them to continue to practice their wills against looking into the depths of the void.
It was a form of soul tempering, so he wished that they all could take advantage of it.
Isabella fared well due to her Emperor-Tier soul, so he guessed that she should soon be invulnerable to the predatory trap of the Voidslime Realm Eater.
Clara was the weakest of them all here in terms of cultivation, but her Will was clearly the strongest as she didn't seem to get caught in its predatory trap anymore after two times, perhaps due to her Transcendent Truth Eyes that were widely described to be a ruler's physique.
This proved how much she fared against the heavenly Will and yet still lost. It was too powerful to defend against.
Naturally, his Lea stepped into the Immortal Emperor Stage. Otherwise, she wouldn't have come out with Calypsea.
And due to housing and enduring Calypsea, her Will was incredibly strong. After three tries, she could get out of the predatory trap by herself. This was because she didn't try to resist the pull but only intended to reel back after fully getting caught in its predatory trap.
Clearly, she was tempering her Will from the start.
Davis knew this would be very beneficial for her since she housed Calypsea. Not anyone could possibly withstand her flames.
However, Fiora was clearly a bit out of her mind as she seemed to be getting caught every single time.
If no one awakened her, she was sad to find out that she would be engulfed by the predator.
Still, Davis only praised her for challenging it again and again, giving her enough motivation to keep trying. Isabella also said that she wouldn't fare any better if she didn't have an Emperor-Tier soul, which consoled Fiora and gave her the necessary outlook.
When they turned to look at Mingzhi though, she appeared to be completely still, even if they had woken her up.
It was unknown if she was even caught or dwelled deeper into the mysteries of space or just stared blankly into space. She never shared her progress after Davis told her to find confectioners, which her avatar was taking care of.
Nonetheless, once everyone began their focus, Davis went closer to the Voidslime Realm Eater and observed it closer, his eyes surveying its runes.
