Battle and Sex Is All A Primordial Fiend Needs

Chapter 415  I Must Survive

Gasping heavily with fear filling her eyes and her skirt ripped and almost torn in two, the woman who had minutes ago been elegantly dressed and receiving praise and envy was now running through a thick thorn-filled forest.

On the woman's arms and legs were scratches and bruises, and with each step she took, she either worsened them or created new ones, but at the moment none of these bothered her. Running was her only option, and as she fled, her eyes turned a bit misty, but most importantly, she raged within her.

"Why me? When will I escape this fate of always being pursued?

If only I could get stronger, I wouldn't have to rely on others and could fight for myself.

Damn, when will this end?" the woman screamed within, frantically pulling aside her one-time smoothly combed brown hair when it covered her eyes.

The guards whom the woman had been proud of, been proud to have moving around her and fulfilling her orders, were no more, and any second from now, death was coming for her.

Though she felt despair within her, the woman pushed on, putting every last bit of energy into her legs as she ran for her life.

"I should fight for the president," Seth asked, taken aback and looking at the deadbeat woman, who should have been lying down and tending to her injuries but was now instead facing him.

After the blue beast had ascended to the sky, Seth had decided to quietly spend his time atop its head, but it seemed that was not meant to be, as a certain someone had picked herself up from the floor and began trying to make him take sides.

"These are just promises of land, fortune and power, anything I want, I can get.

Joining either the president or the rebels doesn't interest me," Seth said after listening to the several enticements that Jane had poured out.

Despite getting rejected, Jane moved to open her mouth once more, not seeming to be ready to accept failure, but before she could do that, Seth's eyes narrowed, and his face tightened just a bit.

With their past interaction and close relationship, Jane had easily found the courage to go about trying to convert Seth, but when she saw his expression change, despite feeling no pressure on herself, she knew her time was up, and it was time to shut up, else she became an annoyance to Seth.

With Seth's recent display of more action and fewer words, especially now that she was injured and had a prisoner, Jane didn't want to get on Seth's bad side, not to talk of finding out what action he would take.

Like this, Jane staggered back to the still unconscious lady, sat beside her, and this time, instead of letting her fatigue take her to sleep, she began taking pills out of her space ring and consuming qi stones appearing in her hand as she tried to bring up her energy levels.

Gudzil, who had seen Seth and Jane's interaction, sat to the side, and though he was silent, his face scrunched up as he considered whether Seth was in a bad mood, but then, as if sensing his dilemma, Seth spoke to him.

"We're heading to the capital next, Gudzil. Is that where he is going?" Seth said looking at the beast beneath him.

"Ehh, no, Sir."

Hearing Gudzil's answer, Seth gave him a deadpan look, and the man couldn't help but begin scratching his head, embarrassed as the last time they flew, his job had been to put the beast on the right course, but so far, he had let it carry them to nowhere.

Seeing Gudzil's actions, Seth shook his head. "Just get us on track."

After speaking to Gudzil, Seth kept back to himself, silently observing as Gudzil gave the beast instructions on what direction to fly in, and when the beast was set on course, he closed his eyes and meditated.

Like this, the atmosphere atop the blue bird went silent, each person to their own devices, and though Gudzil did eventually find himself a bit fidgety, as the hours went on, he settled down.

..........

"Boom, boom, boom." Several explosions went off, shaking the earth and blasting waves all around, seeking to destroy all in their way and the vicinity, yet in the end, they kept on being stopped by a yellow transparent barrier when they were three meters above their target.

The target in question was a lady with brown hair and eyes, and as she stood beneath this cruel bombardment of cultivation techniques falling on her, though her body trembled, she bit her lips as she went about adding more seals to the one already on the rock before her.

Though the Mira had blood running down her lips due to her hard bites and was currently matted in sweat, her eyes gleamed with pride.

After the jet transporting her had been shot down, she had survived and with her guards covering her, she had managed to flee.

Mira had been forced to scurry through the harsh jungle like a rat in a maze.

Knowing that her guards were doomed, that she would also die, had been a sure ending for Mira, but in the end, she found herself stubborn to accept this ending.

Despite having the odds stacked against her, in every single way, Mira refused to just give in.

In that moment, Mira's entire being had been geared towards giving herself a chance to survive, and though in the end, she hadn't gotten an answer, she had hit enlightenment and gotten some inspiration.

Though the world had decided to go against her, there was one thing that had decided to be with this woman: seal.

Though Mira's cultivation talent was bad, and she had no talent for battle, the one thing she had in abundance that made her stand out was her sealing skill, and with this realization, she went to work.

Though it took her a while given her weak cultivation, in the end, she found a location that was suitable for her plans, one that would make her work easy and more feasible.

Though not what she had prayed for, Mira made out a region where six noticeably huge stones were placed close to each other, their placements leaving space in the centre.

While Mira wished she could arrange the rock in a perfect circle, there was no time, and she could only make do with what she got, and without further delay, she went ahead to begin drawing seals on the six huge rocks around her.
