Chapter 373 A Nap
Tall trees, real tall trees, these were the first thing Seth noticed as he began moving after being kicked out of the church.
The last time Seth had been to the church, it had been night and he hadn’t had a clear view of its surroundings and well that was assuming the church hadn’t changed positions, one could never be sure with mysterious places.
Despite moving under the trees and using the leaves and branches to hide from the sun’s wicked rays, in the end, the sun still got to laugh a little as it successfully heated the air, and had Seth’s sign tingling in discomfort.
With the hot air, Seth was more than grateful for the trees that blocked out the rays, as with each step he took, he found himself getting more and more tired.
“Seth where are we going,” Aimy asked, coming to a stop a second later after Seth suddenly stopped.
“I don’t know, “Seth said moving towards the trunk of a huge tree.
“You have your compass, you can get going, and I’m going to be resting here for a while” Seth groaned falling on his butt and without care resting his back against the tree trunk.
“What are you saying, you’re in terrible shape. I can’t just leave you here.”
“Hmmm,” Seth replied his eyes already closing.
“Here take my blood”
“What did I tell you in the church”
“But you’re dying.”𝚘𝒱𝓵𝐞xt.𝗇𝓔t
“I’m not dying Aimy, I’m just really tired and internally bleeding, I think.”
“That’s horrible.”
“Yeah which is why I need some rest to stabilize my body, while I wait for my meal to arrive, you’ll also get to feed too.”
Hearing Seth’s words, Aimy had an idea of what he was waiting for but she wasn’t exactly sure about his confidence and the chance of his prediction coming true.
“Do you want milk?” Aimy suddenly asked, her question earning Seth’s right eye opening and looking at her chest.
“I might just eat your breasts” Seth mumbled, “since you’ll be here, stand guard and protect me.”
With these words Seth’s eyes closed, and Aimy didn’t ned anyone to tell her that he was asleep seconds later.
….
Though there were a few irritations at the start of his nap, irritations most likely coming from his horrendous experience with sword qi, thankfully, seconds or perhaps minutes into his sleep, Seth found himself letting go and he was gone.
Now as he opened his eyes, he dared say that he had slept like a baby, and perhaps he would have yawned and stretched were it not for the white and cold place he now found himself in.
Knowing that he had completely lost all consciousness of his surroundings, Seth’s eyes immediately narrowed on noticing the drastic change of his surroundings compared to when he had last been awake.
Seth was just about to send his qi blaring when he suddenly calmed down, his soulsense having already swept for the nature of the structure around him and calming his nerves.
“She covered me in her ice,” Seth thought, a smile on his face as he realized the reason for his relatively good rest, though he did abhor how defenseless he had left himself.
Standing up, Seth moved towards the wall of the almost square box of ice he was now in and put his hands on it, sending the whole structure shattering the next second as his qi spilled into it.
“Huh, did she freeze the whole forest” Seth wondered his eyes looking at the several ice crosses and spikes jutting from the ice land he now found himself in.
“Nice, she left them alive,” Seth said to himself as he observed the 6 people whom Aimy had somehow neutralized and captured in her ice, her idea of capture matching her sister’s as all her captives had at least 3 long ice spike in their bodies.
“Delicious”
Not even realizing it, Seth’s mentality had transformed into him viewing every other race not his own as a snack.
Walking forward, Seth past the several captured cultivators, some of them actually still conscious, and when they looked at his passing figure, dread filled them, groans and pleas leaving their mouths.
Reaching the last person, Seth paused beside him but looked forward, observing the several attacks that were flying around, watching as a wounded Aimy struggled to deal with the two cultivators ganging up on her.
With their bodies tense and senses alert, Seth wasn’t surpassed when all three combatants quickly noticed his presence, fear entering the eyes of the two cultivators.
Not minding the battle, Seth stretched out his right hand to the man to his right who had been crucified to a cross, black fumes surrounding his right hand and stretching out before wrapping around the crucified man and bringing him to Seth.
Without delay, Seth held the struggling man and without delay bit into him, and a minute later when he released him, a dry husk fell to the ground.
“That wasn’t so nice,” Seth said comparing the husk’s blood with others he had drank.
The scene of Seth biting into the cultivator’s neck and draining him dry was seen by all, and without hesitation, both cultivators turned and ran.
Watching them flee, Seth chuckled and the next second he was gone.
The two cultivators had run in opposite directions, wanting to increase their chances of running away from the monster that they thought Seth was, but in the end, their struggles at survival were in vain.
Though after moving Seth appeared in front of the fleeing female cultivator, the woman noticed him too late and slammed into his chest, stumbling backward and falling to the ground, the male cultivator who had been running in the other direction was seen strangely falling to the ground just before the woman collided with Seth.
“There I took out the both of them, you can have him, and I’ll have her”
Aimy was still in shock, stunned at Seth’s unbelievable speed when she heard his words, and then saw him grab onto the neck of the woman and bite into her.
