Chapter 4103 Gaining More Powerhouses

King and the others felt a hint of pressure and urgency building up in them. Their next words might decide their future, and they did have some time to think about it.

"Boss, I'm always with you. My aspirations may be to return to that place, but ultimately, I think following you will bring me more benefits." Azbel chuckled.

His words instantly made the others want to speak.

"As long as you can provide me with heavenly lightning after I earn enough contribution points, I will join you," Rakshira said quickly.

"It matters not that we are hunted. You saved this fleeting life of mine when it was supposed to end in that realm. I will join your cause to repay this favor. It doesn't matter if I were to die in the process." Wougen's voice boomed.

He appeared to have a firm Will and a no-bullshit stance.

"Indeed. Count me in." Reian Stargazer said calmly.

"We have nowhere to go. I certainly don't. If you will take me in, then my loyalty belongs to you." Pazudu smiled lightly.

"You know I'm with you." Yufella shot a charming smile at him.

"I won't listen to you, but I'll join you." Skylia harrumphed as she looked away.

Shax, Gralex, and Shentu promised their loyalty to him, which is similar to what Pazudu said.

Davis finally gazed at King, who appeared to be silent all this time. His expression seemed as though he was having an internal battle, one that would slash his pride in half or his future. After a severe shudder, he took a deep breath and answered.

"Fuck it. I'll give my life to you, so in turn, make me the strongest Dark Dragon!" King roared.

After that, it was like his energy left his body, causing him to feel as though he had gone through a tough battle.

Davis's lips curled.

He didn't nod nor give a word of acknowledgment of their loyalty or their wishes. He opened his mouth and instead asked.

"So, except Skylia, everyone will join, right?"

"What? I said I was joining!" Skylia fumed. She stood on her heels, glaring at Davis.

"Then you need to listen. It's non-negotiable." Davis calmly said.

"Hnngg~"

Skylia gnashed her teeth, but even while she looked like her top was going to blow off, her beauty certainly was a grade higher than great, nearing an empire-toppling beauty.

"Fine. I will... listen to you..."

She lowered her head, appearing like her pride had taken a hit.

Davis smirked.

He knew most of them here would die than swallow their pride. If he didn't have enough benefits to give and had helped them before, they surely wouldn't follow him. It was the same as not marrying an incompetent peasant but being willing to be the nine hundred and ninety-ninth concubine to an imposing and protective emperor. The latter was far better than the former in their eyes.

"Illumina, what do you think?"

Their pupils shrunk, and they held their heads collectively.

*Crack!~* *Crack!~* *Crack!~*

It wasn't long before strange sounds erupted as though their body were undergoing massive changes like changing bone structure, rune structure, and even growing new parts within their immortal beast core. They were in their human forms, after all.

It wasn't like they had another body within their core, but their core was the source of their body.

Within a few minutes, they all successfully stepped into King Tier.

Their wild undulations spread around the region, shocking themselves. Even after entering King-Tier, they didn't appear elated but dazed, unable to understand what just went through in their bodies.

"This is just the start. In the future, you'll all have a chance to retain King-Tier Blood even as a Grand Saint Magical Beast like me, so work hard." Illumina glared at them as though she was warning them not to slack.

King and the others couldn't react. Their hearts shuddered even more.

"What do you mean?"

Davis narrowed his eyes at Illumina.

"...!" Seeing his expression, Illumina hurriedly fell on her knees and lowered her head.

"Master, I apologize. It wasn't my place to speak."

"You are wrong." Davis frowned, "Considering your achievement of protecting Myria with your life and many other little and intermediate achievements, you certainly have the qualifications to become Emperor-Tier. Everlight, once you reach the Empyrean Beast Stage, please reward Illumina."

"Of course, dear." Everlight smiled.

"..." Illumina was at a loss for words.

She raised her head, and her nose became red. Her eyes also turned teary.

"Master, I'll never leave you. This little life of mine will always belong to you~"

She directly kowtowed, but Davis's expression changed. He hurriedly waved his hand, lifting her up. He appeared before her and patted her arm.

"You are already an integral part of my family as far as I'm considered, Illumina. I trust you."

Illumina bit her lips as she trembled. The urge to hug filled her soul, but she didn't dare blaspheme him as she looked up at him immensely. But suddenly, Davis enveloped her and gave her a good hug.

"You're a good woman. Your life ain't worth so little in my eyes." He patted her back, consoling her.

He had Heart Intent active to know the views of these immortal beasts, so he knew what Illumina wanted but he didn't know that this move of his completely shifted her view on him, burying her heart in deep chains of love. After all, he stopped using Heart Intent as he felt that it wasn't fair since he had already considered Illumina to be his family.

Meanwhile, King and the others were still too stunned to speak. Millions of thunderbolts still erupted in their minds as they tried to make sense of what happened here. They just became King-Tier as though it was a miracle. It was so easy for that woman as though she was just waving her hand. Her aura didn't even seem to fall one bit.

And now, it appeared that if they earned enough contribution points, they could also become Emperor-Tier? Even as a Grand Saint Magical Beast?

*Bang!~*

Gralex, the Three-Headed Hydra, was the first one to realize the terrifying notion of this capability. He directly knelt and smashed his head against the ground.

"Divine Emperor of Death- no, Master! From here on out, my life belongs to you! As long as I don't get mistreated, I will move heaven and earth for you on your beck and call!"
