Battle and Sex Is All A Primordial Fiend Needs



The worst humiliation of Seth's life had brought him to tears, his pride stepped upon and his confidence almost shattered.

Seth had easily gotten over that encounter, one of the reasons being that it had been caused by a being far removed from his understanding.

Now today was another day of humiliation for Seth, he had been continuously taunted and played like a bumbling child, and unlike last time this was done to him by some being whose existence he looked down upon.

As much as Seth wanted to tell himself that it had only happened because he had lost his ability to fight, Seth refused to allow himself to make an excuse for his pitiful situation.

That he was here and had been subjected to Minuha's games and words was his fault, that he was so weak that he had needed Dilise to rescue him off the battlefield was his fault, that he was so pathetic that he had gotten himself killed was his fault, that Alexia had needed to sacrifice her life for his was his fault.

At that last thought, Seth's eyes couldn't help but become teary as he thought of Alexia.

He had promised to save her but just minutes ago he had been left to make a decision…

When he remembered those few minutes of helplessness, Seth found himself consumed by anger.

Seth felt anger and hate towards Minuha, but this hate didn't last long as she quickly relapsed into reminding himself of his adequacies.

The more Seth blamed himself, the angrier he got and the heavier his heart felt, he gripped his fists tightly trying to control his emotions but it did nothing to dampen them.

"Knowing you, you're probably blaming yourself at the moment" Alexia's voice floated into Seth's head, her figure appearing by his side but Seth didn't look up at her.

Seeing Seth's being unresponsive Alexia could only shake her head, wondering how to preach some sense into him, but then Dilise's words floated over.

[I'm ashamed to have laid with a man like you]

Hearing these words, Alexia was taken aback, her worry for Seth increasing as she knew how prideful he could be about his sex reviews, but other than a further tightening of his already blood-soaked fist, he made no move.

Alexia sat silently beside Seth, mulling over her next words to him, but Irene beat her to it, pleading for Seth's calm at the moment.

"I am okay," Seth said to Alexia a few seconds after Irene's speech, his words shocking her as she watched him rise.

"You can go in, things will be getting violent soon," Seth said when he felt Alexia looking at him with a scrutinizing gaze.

With a cute nod and a smile, Alexa faded away, trusting that Seth would be able to take care of himself.

With Alexia, gone, Seth took his last deep breaths, wanting to bury every semblance of anger within him.

Just because Seth blamed himself for being inadequate and letting himself be put on the spot, that didn't mean he was going to let Minuha go for the humiliation she had dished out to him today.

With his breath somewhat normal and his mind clear, Seth stood up, and seeing Irene horrible condition for the first time quickly walked over to her.

"Hey, are you alright? Are you dying?" Seth asked, kneeling beside Irene and taking her head into his palms.

"No "Irene wheezed out with a glare, rubbing her head into Seth's palm, "my soul" she whispered.

"Yeah you were hit with a soul attack, will you die?" Seth asked worry creeping into his tone.

The current scene was like one of those moments in movies where someone got hit with an attack and then died.

Losing Irene wasn't an option for Seth, if he lost her, his situation will be Seth back to that of when he came to this world.

"Stop overthinking" Irene groaned, holding onto Seth's arm and struggling to pull herself up.

Seth getting her intentions put his arms around her waist and helped her to her feet, only for Irene to push against him and collapse to the bed in relief.

"I know it's a soul attack, they're the most annoying ones" she groaned bringing her pale hands to her head and rubbing it.

"You seem familiar with it," Seth said with a raised eyebrow realizing that Irene wasn't worried about dying.

"Yes, this should be the fourth time, urrghh there're always so troublesome " she complained while writhing on the bed and then she turned to Seth.

"Dilise would be here soon, we need to give her a convincing explanation, we cannot afford to fall out of her good graces, especially not now" Irene seeing the questioning look on Seth's face went on to explain.

"I have pills that can dampen the pain of my soul in my space ring, if we're still in her good graces, perhaps we can convince her to let me retrieve some"

"Do you really need it that badly, that would prove troublesome" Seth mumbled looking to the window and moving towards it.

"No!" Irene shouted, pushing herself to her feet, but almost immediately she stood up, she collapsed back hands on her head.

"It's just a little exhaustion, Seth, a few minutes of rest will and I'll be okay," Irene said with a smile, a smile that didn't reach her eyes.

"I see," Seth said looking away from her and staring out the window, the lingering rays of the morning sun enhancing the comfort that the morning breeze brought.

Seth had initially been planning to fuck both Dilise and Irene some more, give his enlightenment sphere a big charge, and then see if he could rip off some benefits of Edwin, but now everything had changed, Seth couldn't feel Minuha's presence around, and after what she had done to him, he had no intention of being present when she came back.

"Will you be able to recover on your own, don't lie" Seth said.

"Yes," Irene said, balling up her fists in determination.

"Good we're leaving," Seth said turning to Irene, and not giving her a chance to speak, he took in a longer than normal breath, and the next time he breathed out, what came out wasn't air but red hot flames, pouring out of his mouth and onto his arms which he had placed in front of him.
