A trace of hesitation and desire to hide could be seen in the way her arms sought to cover her body, but her eyes told a different story, a story that might have not belonged only to her.
“I want to only fight you.”, said Seth right away, recognizing where the look in her eyes was coming from.
Henrietta nodded and closed her eyes before opening them again a few moments later. The lust in her eyes was gone, and they also reflected the same shyness as the rest of her body.
Taking a deep breath, she moved full circle to avoid the other girls appearing in her vision, so she can only focus on Seth, before removing the hands covering her privates.
“Out of sight, out of mind? You know that beats the purpose of this training. If you plan on fighting with your back against the others, I’m only going to embarrass you more.” Said Seth, already having seen through her plan.
Henrietta lowered her head with a red face before peeking over her shoulder, towards the back. All the others girls were sitting down and looking at the two with interest.
Seth could see Henrietta’s anxiety spiking, but he knew he had no time to take it slow. Once he started making his way south, he needed this training to be over. Henrietta was also the most prone to make mistakes because of embarrassment, so he needed to push her even harder than the others.
Sighing quietly, Seth channeled his lust energy and used it on her from afar. Henrietta’s eyes widened, understanding what was going on in an instant, and brought her knees together to stop herself from leaking.
“Please stop. I’ll move.”
Even her voice came out a little ragged, the lust slowly taking over her entire body. Seth chuckled and removed all the lust energy from her body before looking at her with an expectant look.
Henrietta gulped and moved to the side, now having the girls in her vision as well. Not willing to give her more time to think about things too deeply, Seth charged at her.
Henrietta’s eyes immediately went to the dangling member between Seth’s legs, even forgetting to block the attack. Since Seth knew she was quite interested in having sex with him, he took it one step forward, surprising everyone by canceling his attack and pulling her into his arms.
Squeezing on her behind, he brought his head closer to the stunned girl and kissed her lips. Henrietta’s aura flared through all the spectrum of the rainbow before her eyes turned white and she passed out, giving Seth no choice but to catch her before she could fall to the ground.
Her eyes turned back to normal right after, and Henrietta lifted her head, kissing Seth again. Seth broke the kiss quickly and looked at her before asking: “How is she?”
Henrietta licked her lips and chuckled, but before she could respond, she passed out as well. Seth sighed and ignored the system analysis about both of them having passed out as he carried her to a chair and covered her with a cloak.
Seeing the questionable look from everyone there, Seth sighed again and covered himself before saying: “She has two personalities. I don’t quite understand myself, but one acts like a pervert and the other like a shy little girl.”
The others looked at the passed-out Henrietta with surprise, but before they could ask anything, Seth said: “That’s enough for now. Now that Caitlin healed everyone, I have something I need to speak to you about.”
Lisa got serious, already aware of what was about to happen, but the others just looked curious. Seth waited until everyone was carefully listening before speaking.
“I’m going to leave Oath and settle in the Blood Kingdom in the south…” he slowly explained a large part of his plan and told them his theory of the alliance that threatens Oath. Once he was done, all the girls remained silent.
Alexa was the first one to break out of her stupor as she asked: “Can’t the king do anything about it?”
Seth smiled wryly and shook his head. “At this point? Not really, no.”
“Can’t teacher use your knowledge to help the kingdom increase its strength? With your knowledge, the kingdom’s strength would increase by a couple of times in a short period of time.”
“Indeed it would, but I will not do that. I’m sure some of you suspect it already, but I had planned on taking over this kingdom from the very beginning. My strength is still quite weak right now and the knowledge I carry is my greatest advantage. Why would I give one of my cards away like that?” turning towards Henrietta who was still passed out, Seth sighed and continued: “I planned on killing the royals and taking over, since it wouldn’t be that hard, with them being mostly mortals and everything, but some complications arrived and made me have to change plans.”
The girls quickly understood what Seth meant and lowered their heads. Rebecca squeezed the hem of her dress and asked what was on everyone’s minds: “Teacher, what about us? What would we do after you leave?”
Everyone’s eyes turned on Seth, causing him to smile lightly as he said: “I was hoping you could come with me and help me build a new kingdom in the south.”
Rebecca strengthened her hold on her dress and muttered: “But my father…”. Her words also made Alexa lower her head, knowing what Rebecca meant.
“I’ve already started making preparations for your families, but it will not be easy.”, said Seth before turning towards Alexa. “You and Lisa would have it the worst, your families being quite large. I’ve already started making moves on both of your families, but I need to know your opinion as well.”
“If you choose to stay here, I won’t stop you, but if you want to come with me, we’ll need to work together to convince your parents. Lisa already gave me her answer, but I want to know yours as well, Alexa.”
Alexa turned towards Lisa and saw her nod. Turning back towards Seth, she asked: “Did you already speak to father?”
“Yes. I knew he would need some time to think, so I went to him before talking to you.”
Alexa created a small destruction orb in her palm and stared at it in silence for a good moment before saying: “You know, I really, really hate you sometimes… but, I am also thankful for everything you did for me.” She then looked at all the others girls around and continued: “And I am also grateful for having been able to join this family. Your training methods are tiring, harsh, and even sometimes completely perverted, but we saw and understood that they are with our wellbeing in mind.”
Alexa squeezed the destruction orb in her palm and looked at Seth. “As long as you can convince my family to agree, I’ll join you as well. I want to continue on this path, alongside the others.”
Seth smiled and nodded. “I’ll do everything I can to convince them.” Turning towards Lisa, he said: “Same thing applies to your family as well.”
The two girls looked at each other and nodded silently. Rebecca, who felt forgotten on the side, raised her hand and asked: “What about me?”
Seth chuckled and said: “I can convince your parents with ease as long as you want to come.”
Rebecca nodded with a smile and said: “Then I’m coming as well.”
Seth turned towards the other two, Caitlin and Leora, before saying: “I don’t need to ask you two anything, do I?”
Leora remained silent as she nodded. Caitlin also grinned and said: “Of course I’m coming.”
“Good. There will still be some time until we’re ready to leave, but I still need you to be ready. Alexa and Lisa, I need you two to go back home and try to convince your parents as well. I already laid the groundwork, but if need be, we can still push them more. The training is suspended for now, but I still need you to come to the academy from time to time, so as not to arouse too much suspicion.”
Lisa and Alexa nodded before excusing themselves and leaving right away. Seth then looked at Leora and Caitlin.
“You two wait here for Henrietta to wake up. Once she calms down, you can remain here or head to the dormitory together. Remember to be careful when discussing what I just said. There might be spies of the royals lurking around.”
“What about Henrietta? Does she know?” asked Caitlin as she looked at her.
“Yeah. She has already agreed to come with us.”
After Caitlin nodded in understanding, Seth turned toward Rebecca. “Let’s go.”
“Where?” asked Rebecca in confusion.
“To see your father.” Said Seth with a smile before heading towards the door. Rebecca quickly followed him, a bit nervous.
The two made their way to the inner ring of the city using one of Seth’s portals, before walking to a relatively small house there. Rebecca’s father was a baron who was given his noble title recently, after his exemplary achievements in war. Their family was also quite small, composed only of Rebecca and her parents.
There were no guards at the entrance, so Rebecca just opened the door before yelling with a blush: “Mother, Father, I’m home.”. She then held the door open for Seth to walk in and took him deeper inside.
They soon arrived at a small lounge, where a middle-aged woman was sitting down on a sofa and playing with a small cat. She looked towards the door and said: “Becca, why are you yelling like that? Your father is sleeping.”
Rebecca blushed and said from the door: “Mom, teacher is here with me.”
Rebecca’s mother frowned and turned to look at the door, but when she spotted Seth there, she immediately jumped to her feet, dropping the poor cat on the ground. Panicking slightly, she was about to kneel when Seth teleported in front of her and stopped her.
“No need to kneel, madam. I only came to speak a few words with you and your husband.”
The woman was so flustered she didn’t even realize Seth had teleported in front of her. Nodding her head quickly, she said: “Yes, yes. I’ll wake him up.”
She let go of Seth’s arm and quickly rushed towards the back. Rebecca lowered her head behind Seth and said: “I apologize for my mother’s…”
“No need. She reminded me of how my mother reacted the first time she realized Leora is an ascended.” Said Seth with a smile.
Rebecca invited him to sit down, and the two waited for ten minutes until the same woman as before walked back inside, accompanied by a sturdy 40-something man. He was missing his right arm, an obvious injury from the war, but otherwise looked perfectly fine.
Rebecca’s mother looked quite nervous, but her father was a lot more composed as he bowed toward Seth and said: “Ascended Seth, I finally got the honor to meet you in person.”
He then stood up and bowed once more. “Thank you for taking care of my daughter.”
Seth smiled at the man before saying with a serious look: “Nothing to thank me for. Please sit down. I have something I need to speak to you two about.”
Once the two sat down opposite Seth and Rebecca, Seth started speaking again: “I apologize for disturbing the two of you, but I have something important I need to speak to my students’ families about.”
“In a short time, I plan on leaving the kingdom and I want to take my class with me.” Seth found the direct approach the best, so he told them the truth from the start.
Rebecca’s mother didn’t seem to understand what that meant, but for an army officer like her father, he understood what Seth was implying and he lowered his head to think.
“Is the kingdom doomed?” asked the man eventually, raising his head again and looking towards Seth. This was the best reason he could think of for Seth’s intent to abandon the kingdom.
Seth smiled at the man and nodded. “Indeed. With the way things are going right now, the kingdom would fall in less than ten years, but that’s not why I’m leaving.”
“Then why?”
“Because this is the best way I can think of to save it. I will not lie to you, I have thoughts about taking the throne for myself, but since I have a member of the royal family in my class and there’s also the headmistress of the academy, doing that now would be quite troublesome and take a lot of time, time the kingdom does not have.”
“I plan on taking over Blood Kingdom instead, quickly building it up from the ground before forming a united front with Oath against the other kingdoms around. I will slowly gain power outside before pressuring the king of Oath to bow his head to me.”
Rebecca’s mother and even Rebecca were amazed at him being so forward when speaking about treason, but her father remained silent with a thoughtful look.
“I understand the thought of pressuring the other kingdoms and eventually Oath, but what gives you the confidence of doing that?”
“Sir must have fought alongside ascended in war, no?” asked Seth.
After the old man nodded, Seth revealed all the six types of energy and had them rotating around his body while active.
“I have six sources of energy. I think you must know what this means. At the moment I’m only at the third shell, but give me some time…” Seth let his words trail off, his meaning obvious. He then turned towards Rebecca and said: “Rebecca is one of my students with only water affinity, but amongst my other students, there are some with two, three, or even four affinities.”
“Once all of us mature, our strength would be enough to make every kingdom in the southern hemisphere of the continent cower in fear.”
Rebecca’s father was still looking at the six orbs of energy in amazement before turning towards Rebecca. Rebecca understood what her father meant and nodded silently to confirm Seth’s words.
The middle-aged man sighed and looked at his missing arm before smiling wryly: “I have a great deal of love for this kingdom, but as almost everyone inside, none for the family that rules it.”
Looking towards Seth, he continued: “I can see where your confidence comes from now and, if I could still fight, I would do everything I can to help you.”
Turning towards Rebecca, he said: “As for my daughter, if ascended Seth wants her by your side, I will allow it.” Grabbing his wife’s hand with his left one, he continued: “We have nothing tying us here, so we’ll go with you south. This way, Becca won’t have to worry about us. I only hope these eyes of mine won’t deceive me again.”
