Battle and Sex Is All A Primordial Fiend Needs

Chapter 458 Who I Love And Trust Most

Letting out a heave, Basco watched as Alice's body sailed through the air, smashing into the ground and with the amount of kinetic force in her, her body bounced up and then crashed back into the ground once more, rolling and leaving a long, wide ditch as it sped across the ground.

"That should keep her down for a few minutes," Basco loudly said, flexing his aching fist, which he had used to deliver the punch, and then looking at the cloud of dust in the distance that signified Alice's resting place.

"Sorry that you have to deal with this," a voice said a few seconds after Basco's words.

After hitting Alice, there had been fierceness in Basco's eyes and a hint of annoyance on his face, but after the voice spoke, his features calmed, and he turned to the speaker.

"Don't go apologizing, it's not your fault," Basco said, giving the serene woman walking towards a smile.

Though the smile from her husband warmed her heart, within her mind, Dorian still couldn't help but blame herself, looking to the cloud of dust in the distance and shaking her head at her inability to exert even the smallest semblance of influence on Alice.

"Well then again, she's Alice. She's my mentor, and I would expect nothing less from her. If our positions were reversed, I'm sure I would be doing the same thing as her."

"As much as I hate to admit it, Dorian, Alice is getting stronger, and just with our fight right now, I can tell you that handling her would soon become a nightmare and even an impossibility for me," Basco said, his face once again going into a frown.

"But your white lightning, it's almighty. You saw what it did. Just a single punch and Alice was knocked out cold. With it, we can keep Alice busy for some more time, busy until Seth comes out of his seclusion."

Hearing Alice talk about his white lightning brought a smile to Basco.

Remembering the nearly 150 years it had taken him to comprehend this deadly type of lightning, a feeling of pride and arrogance bubbled within him, and it would have come out were it not for Alice's last words.

Though his white lightning put him on a whole new level of power amongst his peers, even placing him far stronger than Dorian, who was half a step beyond the kaiser level, when it came to Alice, he could feel his very being telling him that she was far superior.

"Just what is that woman? We are both Supremes, yet she makes me feel like I am facing a naturally superior being."

While Basco had been grumbling internally about his ex-lover's strength and scary potential, Alice had been speaking words that made him happy, but then she went ahead and mentioned Seth and like water on fire, all positive aspects of Basco's mood was sent down the drain.

It wasn't a matter of Basco hating Seth, but more of the fact that he was his wife's ex-lover and that he was, as she described, an undefeatable combatant.

As a man, hearing his own wife outright tell him that he couldn't match another man in battle for possibly the rest of his life, how could Basco not be hurt? 

With just the smallest of thoughts about Seth, Basco was quick on track for depressing thoughts, but before his bus could get on the highway, he felt a pair of arms wrap around him and a reassuring face look at him.

"You're thinking about him, right?" Dorian asked with a smile.

"Well, considering how you always speak about him with complete confidence and trust, how can I be all smiles?" Basco said, his tone gruff.

"Well, you're right that I have confidence in him, but who said anything about me trusting him the most? While he has his power and troublesome nature, it is you that I trust most and love, and no matter what he does in the world, he can't change that," Dorian said.

Though Dorian's words served to soothe Basco's heart, he didn't let it show as he went grumbling and without delay changed the topic.

"So what are we gonna do with her?"

"Like I said, keep her busy. Alice seeks battles to thrill her and also help her learn how to better use her newfound strength, so we just have to keep her occupied and wait for Seth to be done and come deal with this," Alice answered, smiling but bringing no attention to Basco's change of topic.

"Urgh, I hope you're right. I derive no pleasure from beating her up or, worse off, getting beaten by her. I hope this ancestor of ours hurry up and come deal with her."

Chuckling at Basco's complaint, Alice easily brushed it away, confident that when Seth came out of his seclusion, she would be able to push the issue of Alice over to him.

Unfortunately for the couple, it wasn't until 6 months later that a pair of eyes flickered open and looked at the fake sun up above.

"Hmm, everything around me feels so weird, but most importantly, I feel so different. 

Feels like all I have to do is squeeze my hand, and I could destroy the very fabric of this world."

As Seth got lost in the feeling brought about by his new power, he reached out his hand and then grasped at the empty air and just as his hand closed, the space surrounding his arm began blurring, cracking, and then shattering like glass.

Following the shattering of the space, a black hole appeared where Seth's arm was, making it look like Seth was in some type of fake world and had finally broken through it. 

While Seth stared at the black space the simple act of him strongly grabbing his arm had caused, his eyes quickly caught onto the red liquid that was flowing from the black space where his arm was but before he could inspect more of his blood, a tremor ripped across the world he was in.

Watching as the world all around him began shaking in reaction to his destruction of a bit of its space, probably about to collapse, Seth let out a sigh and pulled back his hand.

Giving his right hand which now lacked fingers a glance, Seth's attention quickly went back to the black space.

With attentiveness, Seth watched the black space quickly shrink, the hole he had caused being repaired by the world and when it was gone, he licked his lips.

"Space power should be next on my list when I'm done with this stupid Sword Qi stuff," Seth muttered and then, with a shrug, stood to his feet.

"Time to relax."
