"What is a soul fruit," Edwin asked, his breathing getting lighter thanks to Dilise''s effort.
"Hmm," Seth hummed, seeming to be in thought as he spun the drink in his ss around.
"Soul fruit, let''s say any item that can strengthen one''s soul, you know that inner thing that gives the body life," Seth said, lifting his hand and pointing a finger at himself, trying to make sure Edwin truly understood what he was saying.
"I understand what you mean by soul, but as I said, I don''t know anything about this soul fruit".
"Oh, that''s rather unfortunate, seems she''s going to be attending to another knee," Seth said, his eyes moving to Edwin''s one good leg, the man gritting his teeth in frustration.
"I said I don''t know what you''re talking about" Edwin roared, but Seth didn''t seem to be listening to him as he just continued observing the man''s leg while he finished the drink in his ss.
It wasn''t that Seth thought Edwin was lying, the problem was that he didn''t whether the man was lying or not.
Reading people''s emotions and expressions wasn''t a specialty of Seth, but in order to leave no stone unturned and make sure Edwin wasn''t lying, Seth''s n was to very painfully break the man''s one good leg.
If Edwin was lying, hopefully, he would squeal, and if he wasn''t, then well all Seth could only say was that he was rather unfortunate.
But then again there was also the chance that he was lying but still wouldn''t talk despite the pain, and with that thought, Seth made up his mind.
"I''ve changed my mind, If you don''t tell me what I want to know, I''ll kill you," Seth said, putting down his ss and standing, hoping his new threat was a lot more motivational.
"I don''t know anything about any soul fruit" Edwin repeated, wanting to do something but only able to sit and watch Seth approach him, his death drawing nearer and nearer, but before Seth could reach him, a voice yelled out "Stop".
Seth had been hearing a lot of stops today, and he no longer left like listening to them, he carried on with his walk, but just when he was about to take the final step toward Edwin, Dilise moved and stood in front of him, her hands tightened into fists she blocked his path, her body clearly trembling.
"You are quite brave, perhaps you should warm my bed tonight" Seth mused, amused by Dilise''s actions, but before Dilise could reply to him, the voice which had spoken earlier spoke once more.
"Are you interested in a woman to warm your bed or are you looking for Soul fruits".
Hearing these words, Seth turned and walked back to the table taking his sit once more, filling his cup, and then said to the red-haired woman who had shown up behind him,
"Speak," he said,pletely ignoring the existence of the man beside her.
E would have preferred not to show herself, but she was the only one who spoke the cultivationngue amongst the three of them.
When Ell was told that Seth was seeking something else and not her, she had been filled with relief, but when she heard that he was about to kill Edwin, she had shown up.
The sight of Seth ignoring her orders to stop was quite shocking but when he finally returned to his seat and spoke to her, with not a single sign or recognition in his eyes, most of her fears were wiped out.
"Despite the woman''s effort, Edwin is still in a very bad condition and I would like to take him to receive expert care," E said, her eyes studying Edwin.
"More reason for you to speak faster," Seth said.
Given the close proximity between Seth and Edwin, it wouldn''t be unreasonable to say that Seth was holding Edwin hostage, and E had merely tried to see if she could get Edwin away from Seth.
"We truly have no idea what the soul fruit is, but I have a prisoner I captured, and when I interrogated her she told me she was searching for an item just like the one you''re looking for," E said, smiling inwardly when she saw Seth''s eyes brightly light up.<novelsnext></novelsnext>
"And where is this prisoner," Seth asked.
"Beneath the mansion, I have her locked up in the dungeon," E said.
"Good, I want her, take me to her," Seth said, immediately standing up and moving toward E.
Seth''s abrupt action had Gastrol who was just behind E taking a step forward, but this little action of his didn''t put the slightest dent in Seth''s stride.
E''s hand on the shoulder had Gastrol taking a step back, just in time for Seth to stand in front of E.
"Well lead the way," Seth said.
"Only if you promise to immediately leave Monwac city without harming anybody else," E said, and almost immediately Seth answered,
"No promises," he said, his words surprising everyone present.
"Then why should I hand over my prisoner to you," E asked looking Seth in the eye with narrowed eyes.
"You seem like some important person" Sethmented looking at Gastrol and then at the clearly worried Edwin," After I slice off one of your hands, am sure they''ll sing songs on your prisoner''s location.
"You think you can touch me," E said, her voice turning cold.
"You think I can''t," Seth said with a smile, his eyes wandering over E''s body.
"My bad I didn''t realize you were so blessed," Seth said his eyes freely staring at E''s more than modest bust.
As his eyes were feasting, Seth suddenly felt like the entire room was going dark like he was about to be absorbed into some sort of darkness, but then almost immediately everything went back to normal like it had all been an illusion.
"Very well, follow me," E said and began walking away.
"Dilise, go with them" Edwin suddenly said just as Seth was about to leave, and Dilise looking to Edwin for confirmation nodded her head and reluctantly followed after Seth.
The party of four with E in front, Gastrol in second ce, Dilise in third, and Seth at thest left the room and began heading downstairs.
As they left, Seth could hear footsteps of people pouring into the mansion and rushing into the room Edwin was in, and he couldn''t help but ask,
"Saydy with the big boobs, are you the one who locked out the mansion from the rest of the city," he asked.
"Yes," E replied, not seeming to be offended by Seth''s words.
Getting his answer, Seth remained silent throughout the rest of their walk, passing his time by staring at Dilise moving ass, an action which made the woman ufortable and turned to look back at Seth from time to time.
It wasn''t long before they left what Seth guessed was a maze and arrived at their destination, stopping in front of a cell, and when Seth looked into it, his eyes were greeted to the sight of a pair of rabbit ears.
