Chapter 97 Invoking Fear On Sight
"I have hundreds of subordinates, some of them married or in relationships, do you plan on seducing each and every one of them," Alice furiously asked.
Hearing Alice's question, Seth was forced to look at the woman with incredulity, sure he loved sex a lot, but did he really look like someone who would go after anything that wears a skirt, it seems the woman had taken his rods a little too literal.
"You don't have to worry about me okay," Seth said to Alice with a charming smile," I have a very high standard for the women I fuck, and besides, me, you, Adrianna, and Dorian are going to be fucking so much that I doubt my dick's going to have the time to bully any of your other subordinates".
Hearing Seth's words, Alice found herself opening and closing her mouth in disbelief, if she had understood Seth's words just right, then he was implying that he wanted to bang all three women at the same time, he wanted to have both 3rd stage Kaisers in bed with him at the same time.
Alice had been worried about Seth's perverse antics and had wanted to caution him against it, hoping to prevent any unwanted events from cropping up due to his lewd obsession, but instead, their chat had deviated to Seth wishing to have sex with her most powerful subordinates, but before she could rebuff him, he put a finger to her opening lips and then spoke,
"As much as I would have liked to say here and convince you to be my wing woman and help me with my seductions, I think its best we go meet your precious subordinates now, the fact that none of them have come charging up till now means their situation might be worse than we assume".
Swallowing her words, Alice nodded at Seth, and once again began moving towards the crash site, but the next second she found herself being carried princess style by two strong arms and moving at speeds that left her dizzy and unable to see a thing.
Before Alice could come to terms with her current situation, she found her feet being placed on the ground while she was supported by the pair of arms till she found her footing.
While trying to steady herself on her feet, Alice traced the strong pair of arms to Seth whom she looked at in confusion, it had just been some seconds since he picked her up and she had expected him to carry her all the way to their destination, but now he was putting her back down.
Before Alice could question Seth on his actions, she heard a voice call out "Madam".
Alice turned her head from Seth and looked toward the source of the voice, this action serving to give her a view of her current surroundings and the women who were looking at her and Seth in trepidation and confusion.
Alice observed then that she and Seth were no longer in the forest and were now standing on an open hill, and some meters away from them were Niara and Yuni, both wielding a sword and staring at Seth warily while behind them was Adriana who was sitting cross-legged on the ground with blood flowing down the side of her lips, her forehead matted in sweat and a slight tremble occasionally wrecking her body.
Alice had been worried for both Adriana and Dorian, but never did she expect to find Adriana in such a miserable state, ignoring Niara and Yuni, Alice rushed past them and moved to Adriana's side, her face filled with worry as she put her hands behind the woman's shivering back to support her and asked,
"Adriana what's the matter, what's happening to you, what happening to her" Alice screamed at Niara and Yuni.
"We don't know ma'am, this is how we met her when we came up the hill, and since then she hasn't spoken to us.
Hearing their words, Alice became frustrated and was just about to begin shooting off more questions when Adriana turned and looked at her, and taking a heavy breath that aggravated the pain she was currently in, she whispered out just two words, " qi poisoning".
For a moment, Alice found herself blanking out when she heard Adriana's words and it didn't long before her head snapped and look at the calm Seth, just when she thought she had figured the boy out, he always proved her wrong, after digging into his background story and following his adventures, it had been confirmed that he was likely at the soldier stage, but now hearing that he had inflicted Adriana with qi poisoning, she was more than sure that he was someone at the peak of the 3rd stage Kaiser level, it was the only explanation for how he could infiltrate Adriana's body with his qi in such a short period of time.
Seth had been interestingly studying Adriana's miserable condition in surprise, he hadn't expected to inflict such damage on the woman, and from the looks of it, he seemed to have inflicted far more damage than what he did to Treuchi.
When Seth saw Alice stare at him with a shocked and pleading expression, he decided to move forward and better check on the unfortunate Kaiser, but Niara and Yuni blocked his way, swords blaring with qi and ready to swing at him.
"let him through!" a high pitch order erupted from the worried and angry Alice, and not wasting a moment, both women moved out of Seth's way and he proceeded to move toward Alice.
It would seem Adriana was in so much pain that she no longer kept watch of her surroundings, because it was only when Seth was about 3 steps away from her that she snapped her head in his direction, a ferocious look on her face which immediately changed to one of fear when Seth's image came into her view.
Adriana wasted no time in trying to push herself off the ground, but a violent cough of blood had her sitting back in place and almost falling flat on her back if not for Alice's support.
"Don't worry he's on our side" Alice said to the Agitated Adriana who thankfully understand her words as she seized her struggles, and silently looked at Seth with gritted teeth while Alice could only gulp down saliva as she imagined the kind of pain Adriana had been through for her to instinctually want to flee just at his mere sight.
