BXBX NOVEL Chapter 168 Tempting Offer
"Take off Ella\'s clothes".
These words from Seth had Iren pausing and turning to state at him, but he paid her no mind, his focus on the big bags he had just pulled out of his space ring.
Considering that Ella had tried to trap him and was probably going to kill him, Irene could think of a couple of things Seth might want to do to Ella, and while she might be against these things, it didn\'t mean that she was going to stand up for the woman, when she had herself had just temporarily submitted to Seth.
So asking no questions she moved to the unconscious princess and began stripping her, her actions having Minuha twisting and yelling, trying to break free but with the woman\'s weak physic, she could barely cause much of a disturbance to Irene, though her yells were quite annoying.
"If you harm her, you will be provoking all of Ingrod, and I assure you that Princess Ella\'s father is not a man to be taken lightly, whatever plans you have to find your soul fruit will never come to fruition because you will have an entire kingdom hunting you, the best soldiers there are, immortals pursuing you every step of the way," Irene said, her words eliciting no reaction from either Irene or Seth, though internally Irene couldn\'t help but rethink Minuha\'s words and hope for them to quickly leave the dungeon so she could get on her way.
"The kingdom is ancient and has gathered a wealth load of valuable resources over many years, if you bring an unharmed princess to the king, he would heavily reward, you, finding or even directly giving you the soul fruits which you seek could be a very real goal, more real than whatever straws the two of you would be grasping at Minuha tempted when she saw that her earlier threats had no effect.
While Irene completely ignored the woman\'s words, Seth who was done getting what he wanted turned and started at Minuha, his hands on his chin as he thought of her offer.
Seth had initially kept his desire to find the soul fruits from Irene so he could get an upper hand in their deal, and now even after his desire had been outed, he had yet to discuss with the woman about the soul fruits.
For all Seth knew, the woman might not even know where it was, and the option of actually going somewhere where there was an almost sure assurance of finding a soul fruit was quite tempting.
Noticing Seth\'s pause, Irene turned her head to stare at him, surprised when she saw him thinking, but before she could let out a word, Minuha spoke once again.
"An object that can heal or even strengthen the soul, can you imagine how precious it will be, yet not even the princess had an idea on its existence, but if you are so sure it exists, then I assure you that Ingrod kingdom has it and if you want them to consider giving it to you, then a safe and undefiled princess is your best chance" Minuha pushed on, hoping to persuade Seth with her words.
Whether Minuha knew it or not, her words were quite persuasive and had Seth considering them, though he wasn\'t stupid enough to take Minuha\'a words at face value, he couldn\'t deny some of the truths in them.
Back on Earth, Alice had told Seth that only the major powerhouses might have an idea of ways to fix the soul, and it only made sense that it would be the same in this world.
"What do you think," Seth said turning to Irene who had been quietly staring at him, her mouth twitching like she had words just begging to spill out.
Hearing Seth ask her opinion, Irene couldn\'t help but let out an internal sigh of relief when Seth sought her advice, she had thought she would have to escape earlier than she had planned, but at least the man was smart enough to ask her input, and hopefully smart enough to listen to it.
"If you take her advice, then that means you\'re going to the capital, I don\'t know your full strength, but I doubt you can defeat an immortal, not to mention the dozens that stay there, you would be completely betting your life on the fact that Ella\'s father values her life enough to sacrifice such a precious resource" Iren was saying, but Minuha cut her off.
"The king values his daughter\'s life more than any resource in the world" Minuha screamed defiantly staring Seth in the eye " The king is known for many things, but one thing that is generally known is that he is a very loving father, His majesty loves his daughter so much that he.." Minuha was saying, but Seth cut her off.
"It\'s alright, I\'ve heard enough," Seth said waving his hands as he moved to the now-naked Ella.
Seth stared down at the woman\'s naked form and couldn\'t help but appreciate her beauty and assets.
Ella\'s breasts while not being heavy jugs were more than enough to almost fill up the hands, her slim waits which led down to her slim curvy hips, and the small patch of red hair which hung just above her twat, begging the eyes to travel down and uncover what lay beneath them.
Such womanly features were a dreadful temptation to the male species, and yet despite this, Seth unhesitatingly used his right leg to kick the woman over like she was a dog.
With her back now facing him, Seth bent down and went to work, his ink and ink brush by his side, he made no further delay as he began drawing on the princess\'s fair and unblemished back.
Seth shushing Minuha had been quite a surprise for the woman and a final relief for Irene, but before Minuha could speak up once more, she watched Seth kick Ella over, this action stunning both women.
In the eyes of Irene and Minuha, Ella was a beauty, and it was something that anyone in the world would accept.
Beauties were always treated with extra care and special attention, but Seth\'s action almost had both women reconsidering his sexual orientation if not for the fact that he had asked for Irene as a sexual partner.
"What are you doing? "Minuha roared up when she saw Seth begin writing on Ella\'s back.
"A seal, one that would help me keep you in line," Seth said, and before Minuha could let out a word, Seth turned to Irene, "shut her up," he said and continued his drawing.
Some muffled resistance later and the passageway went completely silent, Seth peacefully putting a masterwork on Ella\'s back.
