Chapter 966 Going Sowhere?
Davis beca taken aback, but before he could retort, Edgar Alstreim continued.
"If at the smallest possibility that you are her fated one, then..." He visibly trembled before he completely bowed his head as for waist bent ninety degrees!
"Please! I ask of you to take care of my daughter Tia Alstreim!"
Davis frowned as his expression beca a bit strange.
Normally, he would be making fun of this scene in his mind, lanting that he got a similar proposal from his granduncle to marry Lucia, but he noticed that Edgar Alstreim was already determining the fate of his second daughter? How could it possible that Edgar Alstreim would leave the safety of his daughter to a complete stranger!? Much less her purity!?
A mont later, he understood that it could just be a foundation to plant the seeds in fertile soil, only for it to mature into a sturdy and tall tree in the end. With the soil being him, and the seed being Tia Alstreim, it makes sense to use him to support the growth of his daughter to make her a Mystic Diviner.
However, he felt that...
’Even if I’m the target of Tia Alstreim’s Whisper of Fate Phenonon, isn’t Edgar Alstreim a bit hasty...? After all, the possibility that I might be the reason for his daughter’s death always exists even if it isn’t my intent in truth.’
’Edgar Alstreim didn’t purposefully ntion about that possibility... That ans he is trying to not make things awkward between us even though the phenonon doesn’t necessarily pinpoint
as a savior?’
’Why?? On what basis!? Just by the character and actions that I took so far, outwardly?’
Davis felt that it could be likely but also felt that sothing was wrong.
Why was there a need to do all this now, at this mont? After this, there should be many opportunities in the future to see through his character and ask him to look after Tia Alstreim, especially after she had grown up.
He understood that so grand decisions like marriage are already decided by parents for their children even before they were born like it once happened to him. After all, in the cultivation world, it was normal for children to follow their parent’s instruction since they’re being protected by their parents, and not the country with laws like in the modern world of Earth.
Before humanity beca modernized and protected by human rights laws, parents had the most say in their children’s lives, but in the cultivation world, there was no way laws could be implented as the landmass and population were just huge, not to ntion the world thrived on violence rather than peace!
Nevertheless, Tia Alstreim was still underage even in this cultivation world’s standards, and there was no need for her to be sent off to be a bride to be married to him, and he knew that Edgar Alstreim hadn’t been brought up like that by Daniuis Alstreim to do a disgusting act like making a profit of his own daughter.
Could it be that Edgar Alstreim has another plan in mind, and so, wanted him to honestly, sincerely, take care of Tia Alstreim and her growth?
If so, he could sowhat understand Edgar Alstreim’s intent.
’Reasonably, this is the aning of his words if I were to be her fated one, but how can I be...?’ Davis inwardly laughed.
There’s no way he would be the fated one for Tia Alstreim, especially when considering that she is his half-aunt.
’If Edgar Alstreim’s intent is true, then...’
"Are you planning to leave sowhere?" Davis narrowed his eyes.
Edgar Alstreim widened his eyes as his purple pupils dilated. He seed to get visibly taken aback!
However, he quickly cald down.
"I guess I should not be surprised..."
Edgar Alstreim heaved a sigh as he walked past Davis before he turned to look back at him.
"You seem to know about my past anyway, so telling you will not be much of a harm. It is just as you guessed. I am indeed going to search for my daughter."
"Search for your daughter?" Davis beca inwardly startled as he belatedly realized, "Your first daughter?"
Edgar Alstreim nodded his head.
’What the...’ Davis beca a bit flabbergasted.
"You are not worried about your second daughter?"
Edgar Alstreim shook his head, "I’ve already told my elder brother to take care of Tia Alstreim. He agreed, and I beca jubilated at the thought that I could finally start searching for my first daughter. Elder brother swore on his life that he would protect my Tia, so I am not worried."
Edgar Alstreim stopped before he corrected himself.
"No, it should be better said that I was not worried because Tia’s Whisper of Fate Phenonon reacted to you again today, making
doubt whether if she would really be safe with elder brother’s protection. That is why I was shocked to realize that you were still a visible presence in her life, and also made the spontaneous decision to request you to take care of my daughter."
Davis nodded his head in understanding, but he still didn’t understand why Edgar Alstreim would suddenly start to say that he would search for Claire when the chances are clearly less that one percent in his perspective.
Could it be that granduncle Daniuis Alstreim was unable to keep Claire’s existence a secret and revealed all about them to Edgar Alstreim?
’No, if that was the case, grandfather would be moved to tears of happiness right now...’
"What are you saying?"
Davis turned to look at Edgar Alstreim in askance, but inwardly, he was trying to stop Edgar Alstreim from doing sothing stupid such as searching for Claire elsewhere when she is here in the Grand Alstreim City.
"What do you an?" Edgar Alstreim beca a bit confused as to what he was asked about.
"Your daughter could be buried under the Forsaken Phoenix Realm for all we kno-"
"NO!!!" Edgar Alstreim yelled before he frowned, "That is not possible..."
Davis wasn’t intimidated, "Where’s your evidence?"
Edgar Alstreim stared at Davis and scanned his expression, and seeing that there was just calmness, he retracted his gaze. At the sa ti, he couldn’t help but reminiscence about what happened after he got Daniuis Alstreim’s word to protect Tia Alstreim.
[
"Don’t worry, little brother! As long as I am alive, I will never let Tia Alstreim co to harm. As you said before, even if Tia Alstreim successfully becos a subordinate or disciple of the Conferred Queen, I’ll still follow Tia Alstreim like a Protector. You know, I owe you far more than you can imagine...."
"Brother, I..."
Daniuis Alstreim raised his hand, stopping him, "Don’t say anything. This is how I feel. This way, I can also truly redeem myself for the blunder I have done in the past by not helping you at the ti you needed
the most!"
Edgar Alstreim beca taken aback before he deeply nodded his head. He beca moved and knew that he made the right decision to forgive his big brother at their reunion in the Grand Welcoming Hall. However, he suddenly beca hesitant because he was about to open up a conversation that might make things awkward between the two of them, but he felt that no matter what, he knew that he has to hear an answer.
"Elder brother... I heard that you had co in contact with the aboriginals when you were enduring in the Tripartite Alliance Territory."
Daniuis Alstreim narrowed his black eyebrows, his purple eyes gleaming with a strange glint, "From whom did you hear this?"
