Hearing Irene's ridiculous request all Seth did was stare at her silently, while in his mind he went over the pros and cons of torturing and killing the woman.
Seth looked at Irene's determined eyes, and couldn't help but groan when the image of Alice came to mind.
He had once placed the woman in the same spot, asking her to trust him but refusing to trust in return.
"Alright," Seth said.
"You agree?" Irene asked with narrowed eyes, disbelief in her tone.
"Yes, don't you want that," Seth asked with a raised eyebrow.
"I at least expected you to ask for some compromises or put up a resistance".
"As of now, the one thing I'm sure about is that you need me, if you truly wanted to escape from me, there are far better opportunities for you to fly away and leave me gawking on the ground, but instead you decided to throw this little tantrum."
"Also given your injuries, I imagine it is scary for you to trust that I won't turn to you at one point of our journey, so if this gives you peace of mind, then no worries".

The sight of Irene with her head bent down and her long ears dropping made for a pitiable sight, her tears only serving to further weaken the heart.
Unfortunately for Irene, Seth's compassion for the day had been used up as rather than to console her, he instead gripped her by the jaw and brought her face looking up at him.
"What were you thinking fighting me, did you ever consider that you might just make your case worse," Seth asked, but Irene gave no reply, her eyes instead closing.
"Now that I've agreed not to question you, I hope you'll no longer try pulling off stupid stunts like the one you pulled earlier, you need to recover.
"All you've done now is damage your body and made it harder to heal you when we get the soul fruits," Seth said with a sigh, letting go of Irene who moved and rested her head on his shoulders.
"I'm sorry "Irene muttered.
"Yeah, just be a good girl," Seth said and the next movement lifted her and walked back into the river.
...
Some minutes later, Seth and Irene had finished cleaning themselves up and were lying down on the ground by the stream, Irene resting on Seth's body.
While Seth lay looking at the sky, Irene innocently traced her fingers on his chest, her eyes warily staring at Seth's dick which silently quivered in its semi-hard state.
"Let's get going," Seth said lightly tapping Irene on the shoulder, the woman obediently lifting herself off him.
"You can head back first, I want to be alone for a while," Irene said surprising Seth.
"You're not scared of being attacked by some beast or checked out by a pervert" Seth teased.
"I'll be fine, that beast was just a one-time thing, an anomaly" Irene grumbled, "besides I scanned the area a while back during our scuffle".
Hearing Irene's words, Seth shrugged his shoulders and dressed up, already moving away minutes later.
"You really trust that I won't run away" Irene couldn't help but ask as she saw Seth leave.
"Like I said I trust that you need me and that won't be changing anytime soon"
"And what if you're wrong, what if I do run away".
"Feel free to, just make sure I don't find you," Seth said walking away with a wave.
As Seth walked away, he couldn't help but release a sigh, given her injuries and her lack of an ally that he knew of in this world, Seth wasn't worried that the woman would leave him and he had various reasons for such confidence.
There was the fact Irene desperately needed the soul fruits and so unless she was dumb, she had to know that sticking with him was her best bet of getting them.
Follow on Novᴇl-Onlinᴇ.cᴏmThere was the chance of Irene always having other choices he knew nothing about but that didn't worry Seth after all he was aware of the true reason for her recent behavior and with that in mind, he had close to no worries.
"With her being injured indefinitely, it seems I won't get to bang her one more time before I kill her" Seth lamented.
…..
Irene quietly watched Seth go, and after a few minutes had passed, she tentatively swept her soul sense around, and finding no one, she got up and walked to the River.
Irene moved into the river, her figure gradually being submerged by the water the closer she got to its middle.
In no time, Irene disappeared under the water, her figure nowhere to be seen on the surface, but if one were to look into the water, one would see a thick darkness resting at the bottom of the position where Irene had just submerged.
…..
"And who are they," Seth asked, a cup in his hand.
"Ahhh they are some of my concubines," Tamor said looking at the 5 women whom Seth had pointed out.
After much mulling, Tamor had decided not to risk it and stayed, and then as a way to solicit Seth's forgiveness, had mounted a heap of wine which he presented to Seth on his arrival.
Tamor would have liked to add some women, but he was afraid of making another mistake and offending Irene.
In the course of the evening, Seth hadn't raised any issue on Tamor's earlier blunder, keeping the man nervous till Irene later arrived and calmed his fears.
In the end, after seeking the opinions of Seth and Irene, Tamor decided to rest for the night and set up camp at their current location
Right now Tamor was standing beside Seth, realizing that he had been using the wrong thing to please Seth all this while.
Plates after plate of meat were consumed in quick succession, by Seth who showed no sign of getting full anytime soon.
