Corrupt Creations

Inside the forbidden area in the Glazed Lake Sect, two females were looking at a clear water screen. There seemed to be some images passing, being reflected in the water element; images that made them furrow their eyebrows in concern. 

"Master, they have already entered the borders of the Blue Breeze Country. I think that in about a day or two, they are going to get near one of our main entrances." 

"Sigh... There is nothing we can do to prevent it. Darya, you will have to protect the sect this time. I won't be able to do anything, unless they enter our territory; and even in that circumstance, I will still be heavily restricted. Sigh..." 

Darya, the water spirit that protected the Glazed Lake Sect, said: "Master, you shouldn't worry with something like this anymore. You've done all you could have. Let me and the Palace Masters take control of the whole scenario. And... If everything goes wrong, there is still that..." 

"You're right. I hope things do not escalate to the point we will need to activate that. However, there is still one thing bothering me..." 

"What is it, Master?" 

"You should not worry with that. It is just a minor thing that was out of my expectations."

The next morning, Seth woke up very early. Actually, when he woke up, Arwen and Rina were still sleeping on his arms, while wearing the same clothes they were born with. 

Seth felt great to have those two beautiful naked women in his arms and really wanted to squeeze whatever he could, but in order to no disturb their sleep, he just silently left, slowly making his way out from the middle of their warm embrace. 

With a bit of effort and using the techniques he learnt as a dark elemental user, he was able to leave without anyone noticing. 

Seth wanted to arrive back at the Allakiir Mansion, before Serene had woken up. Actually, he was not trying to hide the fact that he went to Arwen and Rina's new house last night from her, but he wanted to be beside Serene as she opened her eyes. 

After wearing his clothes and using his Soul Sense, Seth activated his Shadow Walk and sprinted towards the Allakiir family mansion. For a cultivator like him, covering the distance between those two places, was very easy and quick. 

As he ran all those ten thousand meters while covered in shadows, no one was able to notice his presence or even see his figure. It was like he was cutting through space and leaving no traces behind and even though there was a security check in order to enter that area, he went past that barrier unnoticed. 

Seth quickly arrived right before the room he had woken up on the day before and unlocked it with a key he still had. Before even doing that though, he had already checked on Serene's situation and realized she was still unconscious. 

For him, the intimate round they had together, didn't consume too much of his energy. But for her, it was like she was a boat that stood right in the eye of a storm. Her body really needed to rest in order to recover from their wild adventures. 

Seeing that she was still sleeping, Seth had the idea of finding Arel and ask her for some breakfast. He wanted to surprise Serene. 

Arel was quite happy that Young Master Seth still remembered her and told him that she would do it as fast as she could. Not even fifteen minutes later, a very healthy and rich meal arrived at Serene's room. 

After getting everything ready, Seth then proceeded to wake Serene up. 

"Wake up, sweetie." 

"Hmhm?" Serene rolled on the bed while murmuring, but her eyes remained closed. 

Seth knew that by only that, it wouldn't work. So, he decided on going with another approaching method. He knew Serene loved to eat fruits, so he picked a slice of strawberry and tempted her nose with it, before approaching that slice very close to her mouth. 

Impressively, not even a second later, she parted her lips and took a bite on it. 

Serene opened her eyes, feeling that sweety and juicy flavor, with a little bit of acidity in her mouth. Before she could even recognize Seth's presence there, she had already practically eaten the whole slice. 

"Good morning, princess." 

"Uhm...? Seth? Good... Morning." 

Serene was finally able to open her eyes and see Seth's figure sitting on the bed by her side.  She wasn't able to notice it, but there was a beautiful smile on her face, like she was witnessing a scene from one of her dreams. 

"Have you rested enough?" 

"I guess so." 

"Good. Then now, you can calmly eat the breakfast, before we depart." 

"Eh? Where are we going to?" Serene curiously asked. She didn't know anything around this side of the mainland and even though everything was new for her, it was also a mystery. 

"You must have talked to one of those two golden haired elves, that were taking care of me these days, right?" 

"Are you talking about Rina?" 

"Oh? Did you get to know each other during the time I was unconscious?" 

"Yes. She was the one who took care of you the most; always using her energy in order to heal your wounds..." Serene seemed to be a bit happy when talking about Rina. 

"Did you two become friends or something like that?" Seth suspiciously asked, after seeing her strange smile. 

"Eh? How did you notice it? She was a very kind and sweet girl and we ended up striking a good conversation." 

"Oh, I see... Well, we are going to move to her house today. I've arranged a place for us to stay there and it is going to be our new home." 

"Eh?! Really?! Aren't we going to be a bother for her?" 

"Don't worry with that. Actually, she is going to be your "sister" from now, so make sure you get alongside her." 

Even though Serene didn't have that much in-depth knowledge about those things, she was able to deduce from Seth's phrase, that Rina was pretty much someone he treasured a lot, just like she was.
