Battle and Sex Is All A Primordial Fiend Needs



A few more sprints and jumps and Seth's figure finally came to a halt.

Standing atop a very tall building that dwarfed all the others around it was Seth with Irene on his back, her head resting on his shoulders.

After jumping on several roofs of the city, Seth had lost any and all pursuers and was now free for the time being.

At the moment, Seth stood facing a wall that seemed to even be a little taller than the towering building he was currently on.

This wall was Seth's last obstacle to freedom, an obstacle that he planned on breaking through.

On his back, Irene stirred when she notice Seth standing still and decided to take a look around.

"I thought we were escaping immediately," Irene asked.

"We are".

"So where is the gate?".

"On the other side," Seth's said pointing his thumb behind them.

With trepidation, Irene turned around and followed Seth's thumb, gazing into the far-off distance at the wall which was situated on the other end of the city.

"You plan on breaking through the wall, why not head for the gate, it will be much easier," Irene asked.

"There is a chance that Minuha will be there, and I'm not willing to take that chance.

Hearing his words, Irene could understand that even now that he was freed of those armguards, Seth was genuinely afraid of Minuha like she was some monster he saw no chance of overcoming.

"But the wall," Irene said looking forward at the strong intimidating structure.

"Have you found some weakness in it or will you make a try at weakening or cracking the seal" Irene inquired.

"Ha, ha, ha, ha" Seth laughed.

"Do you know how many years it took for this barrier to be set up? Can you imagine the number of seals, failsafe's and redundancies built into it?".

"Breaking through this is impossible" Seth finished.

Though he said it was impossible, Seth knew that he could actually crack the seal, but the fact that he would need his enlightenments sphere much bigger than it was, made him abandon any further thought in that direction.

"So how are we going to get through the wall?"

"Who said we'll go through the wall, that's the hardest route, we'll be going through the barrier," Seth said pointing at the blue barrier that flickered above them.

"That's impossible" Irene Muttered, but Seth wasn't listening to her as he had already gotten into a sprint.

Putting as much power as she could into his feet, Seth sped through the rooftop, his every step leaving depressions and cracks on the floor.

When Seth reached the end of the building, he put power into his calves and bent his knees, compressing as much power as he could into his legs and then he jumped.

Between the building Seth had initially been on and the wall, there were several low-rising buildings, and if Seth decided to jump down to the rooftops of these buildings, he would gradually lower his angle of elevation until he was close to or at ground level.

At such a height jumping to the top of the wall is impossible, and this will leave him having to take the stairs and walk to the top of the wall.

Taking the stairs would have been a sure way of giving a pursuing enemy the time to pick up on their location and lock down on him, so making the jump was Seth's best option.

With his beastly strength and calculations, Seth was sure that they would make it to the wall, but at the moment his current worry was their landing.

How they would react if they were fired upon while still in the air, or how they would actually land on the wall given that Seth didn't trust his legs to handle the impact of his suicidal jump.

It was while Seth was drawing several simulations in his head that Irene took her hand off Seth's neck and placed them around his chest while also tightening her legs around his waist.

Seth initially registered these movements but ignored them as he felt Irene was preparing for their crash landing, but when he felt his trajectory change and the speed of descent rapidly reduce, Seth turned to Irene.

"You should have asked me" She chided with a strained smile.

"I am used to being flightless, and your current condition wouldn't even allow me to think of asking for your assistance".

"So what are you, a level 6 mortal," Irene asked.

"You think highly of me" Seth replied with a chuckle, his answer having Irene twist her face in confusion but before she could question Seth some more, her face scrunched up in pain, and blood leaked from the corners of her mouth.

"That's enough, any further and you'll only aggravate your injuries which will make our escape harder," Seth said, upon seeing Irene's state.

"Sorry," Irene apologized.

"I didn't say you were wrong or that you should apologize" Seth rebuked as he stared down at his now rapidly descending figure.

"Rest, I can handle things from here".

With Iren's tight grip on him relaxing, Seth once more began running simulations, and this time he could make out multiple methods for a safe landing.

With Irene having temporarily canceled gravity's effect on him and keeping him at the peak of his jump for a little while longer, Seth could easily tense his legs and brace them for impact.

eaglesnovɐ1,сoМ "boooom," a small cloud of dust reaching the waist rose when Seth dropped on the wall.

With his feet spread apart, his knees bent, and his hand holding onto Dilise's hips, Seth landed, and now that he was safely on the ground, it took him a few seconds to slowly straighten his body, "pops" sounding all over his body as he stood.

Seth's first action on standing was to check for sentries, his eyes finding one about 10 steps away from him to his left, looking at him in shock, while to his right, he spotted a sentry post but it was far off, and he could spot the people far out there running about and sounding an alarm on his appearance.

"Looking away, Seth kicked his feet off the ground, and the next second he was standing by the lone sentry he had spotted to his left, the man now lying on the ground, knocked unconscious.

"Well I guess we don't have a lot of time," Seth said, finally placing his attention on the blue seemingly never-ending barrier that rose up from the seals embedded in the wall and towered into the sky to form a dome over the inner city.
