Divine Emperor Of Death Chapter 1519
Advertisement
The carriages appeared like chariots, and they could fly, making them similar to flying chariots. They appeared imposing and were decorated with the imprints of the dragon and the phoenix.
An Ice-Tailed Sea Serpent pulled the carriage that carried Ancestor Dian Alstreim. It was also one of the two guardian magical beasts guarding the Ancestral Hall. On the other hand, the magical beast pulling the carriage for the yet to be had bride was the Scarlet Heart Bird, an offshoot between the Burning Phoenix and another magical beast.
The Scarlet Heart Bird is a King Rank Species Magical Beast, but it lacked prowess and was gentle, easily tameable. However, the Scarlet Heart Bird was a sign of romance, and due to their significance, most of them were tamed by humans and used by the men to impress their women.
However, the price to hire them for this kind of event remained expensive.
After all, the Scarlet Heart Bird may not have much prowess, but their beauty wasn't any less than a Burning Phoenix Bird. Nevertheless, Ancestor Dian Alstreim didn't act cheap and hired a Scarlet Heart Bird for his Tirea, wanting to make it as grand as possible.
When the Scarlet Heart Bird shot past the Grand Alstreim City, almost everyone looked at it in awe, making him feel like it was worth it. As for the Grand Elders beside him, they were also taken aback by the Scarlet Heart Bird's beauty.
Other than the Grand Elders, Davis was the only youth in the Alstreim Family's entourage. He flew along with them, looking unbothered by the confused looks he received from the clueless people below.
Soon, they arrived at the Territory Gate leading to the Tripartite Alliance Territory. It stood tall and imposing, thoroughly fenced by the dark fog.
This dark fog had many names. Eternal Wall, Territorial Fog, and many more as each power took the liberty of naming it to their liking and sometimes even going as far as attaching a random legend to it.
In any case, they didn't bother much and crossed the Territory Gate, entering the Tripartite Alliance. However, one of the four Dragon Families, the Zlatan Family, was waiting here.
"Oh! Is today the grand marriage between the Alstreim Family and the Falling Snow Sect? I almost forgot! No wonder there were so many people crossing this gate."
A powerful voice echoed. It was none other than Thorus Zlatan who guarded the gate against letting Isabella escape. He moved to the side but opened his mouth.
"Am I also invited?"
"Yes, if your magnificence wants to join the wedding banquet, you are welcomed." Grand Elder Valdrey Alstreim spoke diplomatically.

"Ahaha! Good! Go get the bride, Dian Alstreim. We are waiting for quite a show."
Thorus Zlatan laughed, followed by his subordinates laughing along with them. The Grand Elders felt their faces burn, but they could do nothing in front of the Zlatan Family. Still, they gritted their teeth and moved forwards.
Davis and Thorus Zlatan's eyes met at this moment. They looked at each other before Davis deeply smiled. Thorus Zlatan's eyes narrowed, but he didn't seem to do anything.
Davis also left along with the entourage. However, they didn't stop him nor call his name but followed him. In any case, it was just Thorus Zlatan's subordinates following him. He didn't care.
Soon, they crossed the Territory Gate leading to the Falling Snow Sect and entered it. Within a few minutes of fast traveling, they quickly arrived at the Falling Snow Sect.
Davis saw its icy palaces behind the icy plains and became awed for a moment.
'So this is where Natalya trained for half a year...'
He imagined it was quite fruitful to her latent talent and passive comprehension because the yin and ice attribute here was so rich. Shirley also stayed in the Burning Phoenix Ridge for the fire attribute that possessed the property of lower-tiered Burning Phoenix, while Evelynn also wished to enter the Poison Lord Villa Territory to know more about poison laws.
It was only their right in wanting to train in a rich environment. With their talent and the resources he would provide them, their cultivation would only take less than half the effort than before for them to reach a higher level and comprehension.
Nevertheless, looking at the lineup of beauties, Falling Snow Sect Grand Elders wrapped in white robes and veils, they looked like heavenly swans receiving them.
"Today, we, the Alstreim Family, have come to receive the bride!" Grand Elder Krax Alstreim screamed atop of his lungs.
However, the reception was not quite good as the swans refused to reply.
But, a palanquin emerged from the opened gates of the Falling Snow Sect, and there came the entourage. Seated on top of the palanquin was Ancestor Tirea Snow, her beauty and bearing unmatched by the ones beside her at this moment.
From inside the dragon-patterned carriage, Ancestor Dian Alstreim was completely awestruck. He quickly walked out and received her with a warm look on his face.
Ancestor Tirea Snow stood up from the palanquin's seat and smiled at him, her eyes curving. She was extremely beautiful today, even though only her eyes could be seen by the beholders because of that white veil of hers. In contrast to her, Ancestor Dian Alstreim wore a luxurious white-red robe that greatly accentuated his look today.

"Tirea, you look gracious and charming..."
He reached out his hand, and Ancestor Tirea Snow simply took his hand, her foot coming off the surface of the palanquin as she moved closer towards him, hovering face to face as she held him.
The maidens of the Falling Snow Sect abruptly clenched their fists.
Tonight, they imagined that this dirty man would press down their Ancestor underneath him and couldn't help but cast hateful looks at him. They didn't know what kind of methods he used to make their Ancestor fall for him but imagined that it wouldn't be any good.
Their reaction was quite plain to be seen by anyone.
"Don't worry about them." Ancestor Tirea Snow's melodious voice echoed, "Most of them just think that I am not in my right mind when in truth, I wasn't in my right mind while having my memories sealed. They only know the cold Tirea Snow who completely remained loyal to the Falling Snow Sect and not the one who fell in love more than a thousand years ago."
"I know."
Ancestor Dian Alstreim gently smiled before he helped her enter her assigned chariot. Ancestor Tirea Snow gracefully entered and sat down before the door closed. Her pupils slightly trembled before she felt her cheeks become hot as a shade of crimson adorably popped up.
She might've feigned calmness before, but her heart was practically pounding in happiness.
This... this was like a dream come true for her!
"Thank you for your kind cooperation, maidens of the Falling Snow Sect. Indeed, we have now received the bride and will safely escort her to the Alstreim Family."
"We're also joining the escort if you don't mind..."
A Grand Elder of the Falling Snow Sect spoke.
"Grand Elder Rosella Frostblight, it's a pleasure."
Grand Elder Valdrey Alstreim clasped his hands.
Davis looked at the four other Grand Elders who joined the entourage. There was even Tanya Frostblight who smiled at him while he too smiled back. Like him, she was the only youth in the entourage, mostly because she was the direct disciple of Ancestor Tirea Snow.
However, the Grand Elders all cast a look of warning at him, causing him to smilingly look away while Tanya Frostblight slightly pouted.
They turned around and started to leave. However, an imposing voice echoed.
"Halt!"
*Schwing!~*
The sound of a sword searing through the air echoed as it stabbed the icy surface in front of the entourage, blocking their path.
Ancestor Dian Alstreim and Ancestor Tirea Snow's brows furrowed. Was the trouble already here before they could even leave the Falling Snow Sect?
Ancestor Dian Alstreim looked at the skies to see who caused the commotion but Ancestor Tirea Snow already knew who it was.
"Klein Swordhand, what are you doing!?"
Her melodious voice sounded angered as her icy might spread, inevitably making the carriage and the Scarlet Heart Bird tremble.
"Ahaha! What? I just came to test the might of the youths of this entourage!"
Davis looked at the man with sharp eyebrows and a purple-white robe.
If he was not wrong, that was Klein Swordhand, the Villa Master of the Weapon Refining Villa and a Law Rune Stage Powerhouse who recently broke through, although that recent was hundreds of years ago.
However, what bugged him wasn't Villa Master Klein Swordhand or the other Villa Elders but the one beside him, Roma Silvermoon, the traitor of the Falling Snow Sect who ruined his plans to do what he needed to do for a longer time.
"Klameez, go get your sword back."
"Yes!"
That disciple who had seemingly just thrown his sword to stop the carriages from leaving descended while having an indifferent expression on his face.
However, his expression suddenly changed as the sword that was stuck to the ground abruptly swung back and shot towards a woman.
Tanya Frostblight's eyes narrowed.
Dodge?
No, it was too fast!
Defend!?
She felt she was not up to par against this sudden Peak-Level Law Dominion Stage attack!
However, two Grand Elders managed to arrive in front of her, but before they could even stop the sword, it turned around and targeted the Alstreim Family's lone youth, who stood quite defenseless!
"This way!"
Klameez abruptly appeared by the side of Davis as he grinned, two swords suddenly targeting Davis from both sides.
"Did you really think that I would sneak attack a woman, idi-!!!"
*Bang!~*
With a swing of his arm, Davis's palm landed right on Klameez's cheeks. His head exploded along with his upper body while his blood splashed to the immediate surroundings but didn't land on Davis for some reason.
As for the sword, it was swatted away like a fly and fell on the icy plains before it shattered!
"..."
Utter silence reigned the scene before a mocking voice echoed.
"Heh, looks like they haven't heard about Dragon Queen subordinate's prowess of almost slapping a Zlatan Family's youth to death like it was nothing. Courting death~"
Tanya Frostblight grinned as she sneered while the expressions of the people from the Weapon Refining Villa turned ugly, especially Klein Swordhand's expression.
It became... contorted!

The Oresteia (Modernized)
All three of the great Greek Tragedians have written plays about the bloody chain of murder and revenge within the royal family of Argos. Yet theirs is in fact not a story of tragedy, but rather one of redemption. As they move from darkness to light, from rage to self-governance, from primitive ritual to civilized institution, their spirit of struggle and regeneration becomes an everlasting song of celebration to be heard throughout the ages. Forming a discourse set against the emergence of Athenian democracy out of a period of chaos and destruction, the Orestian plays are compelling stories of the tensions between our obligations to our families and the laws that bind us together as a society. In the beginning, we witness how a king’s decision to sacrifice his daughter and turn the tide of war inflicts lasting damage on his family, culminating in a terrible act of retribution. In the aftermath of regicide, we behold how a son must set out to avenge his father’s death by committing a most egregious sin. In the end, the sinner is tormented by supernatural powers that can never be appeased, but ultimately finds redemption and ends the curse on his house once and for all. Woven through all of this is the story of a friendship so close that it elevates itself to brotherhood - Where the blood of the covenant is shown to be indeed thicker than the water of the womb. In this very brief twelve-chapter modern rendition of the Orestian plays, I have chosen to place my focus mainly on the lives of the characters Orestes and his best friend Pylades. The chapters, each around 2000-2500 words, are split up evenly between them in first-person narrative. I hope that you will come to enjoy reading this heartwarming story, but more importantly, that you see how the conflicts portrayed in the story, whether human or institutional, are still much very relevant to our societies today. Note on Sources: The details of this story is very loosely based on The Oresteia by Aeschylus. And I mean very loosely. Other sources that I referenced for detail and inspiration are Mythology by Edith Hamilton, Electra by Sophocles, and Iphigenia in Tauris by Euripides. You may also find that I have quoted some of these works, and others (such as Shelley's Ozymondaeus), without citations (average of 1-2 such quotes per chapter). I did this because I do not have the ability to describe certain scenes nearly as well as some of those writers. If you read a particularly beautiful piece of prose here, chances are it's probably stolen lol. Also, I wrote this during the summer between my high school senior year and my college freshmen year. It was the summer of 2020, and being quarantined apparently gets my creative side out lol.

A Girl and her Goat
Chloe Yinara, she’s a countess, she expects to be a marquis in due time, she’s a mage, and she’s staring at a black goat that appeared in the summoning circle when she called for a familiar and took more power to summon then she could have possibly provided on her own. ___________________________________________________________________________________________________ There has been a major edit of the first 11 chapters, so anyone who enjoyed the story but couldn't take the spellchecker and other grammar mistakes should give this another shot. I can’t promise that there will be no grammar mistakes, but they will be less common and far less egregious. ___________________________________________________________________________________________________ Notes. First for those of you looking at the fact that this story has both the Harem and Female Lead tags I am pleased to relieve your concerns, or disappointed to inform you depending on your tastes, this will not be a reverse harem, Chloe has no romantic interest in boys. Second, I was hesitant to add the Anti-Hero tag, but Chloe certainly dances on that line. Just to prevent any misunderstandings, even when blood and treachery abound and Chloe is at her most amoral this will primarily be a light hearted story.
