"Troublesome," Seth thought as he moved out of the way of an incoming punch, taking several steps back to create distance and prepare for the next attack.
This past few days, nothing was going particularly right for Seth, his every action was met with unexpected reactions, and right now he was currently eating the troublesome fruit of his earlier decision.
After having a fruitful chat with Alice three nights ago, Seth had retreated to the room he had earlier woken up from, and from there he had enjoyed the bodies of five beautiful ladies, and even now he could still remember their loud moans as his cock dealt with their inexperienced caves.
Seth had spent the last three days talking to Alice about his journey into Ashad and carrying out preparations with Adriana.
Today, Seth had happily woken up, and after carrying out his morning rituals which just happen to involve a quickie with Adriana and Sonia, he had decided to meet up with Dorian and finally see what his spontaneous action days ago had created, and what better way to understand her changes than through a spar.
Currently, Seth was inside an incredibly large dome located deep underground, its walls were inscribed with several formations and seals that had Seth giving up on observing due to their bountiful numbers.
A plain ground covered in holes and some grasses filled the dome, and located at one side was a stand, possessing a few benches and currently inhabited by Sonia, Alice, and Adriana, and on the field were the figures of an elegant Dorian and a pitiful Seth.
After that fateful day where Rose attempted to turn him into a vampire, Seth had never been completely suppressed in a fight, even Treuchi who heavily contributed to his death had been forced to resort to trickery and a sacrifice to defeat him, but currently, Seth found himself being manhandled by Dorian.
Having thankfully dodged her punch, Seth moved to make distance, but the next second was forced to abandon his plans and lift up his left hand to defend a kick that sent him flying in the air and digging through the ground.
Not waiting for the power of the kick to die out, Seth pushed himself off the ground and rushed back at Dorian with fervor, delivering punches left and right, as fast as he could, but despite him being the one on the attack, Seth was the one being pushed back as Dorian took a step forward after easily slapping away each of his punches.
The first time Seth met Dorian, just a casual attack from him had sent the woman to death's door, but right now after transforming her, Seth couldn't even put a strand of stress on the woman's face.
For a man who prided himself in his power and possessed boundless arrogance, everyone expected a look of despair to claim Seth's face as he was being beaten black and blue, but a bloody grin was the only expression present on his face.
Finding his punches being knocked away and then being casually pushed back by Dorian, Seth tensed his legs and took a huge leap backward, but Dorian decided not to let up as she also stamped her feet on the ground, this action of hers falling in line with Seth's plans as he immediately let loose a punch forward, more than sure that Dorian would move in front of him.
"Not bad, but not enough" Seth heard a voice say on his right, his right hand already punched forwards leaving that side of his body defenseless, and not showing a shred of mercy, Dorian layered a double kick to Seth's right, sending him falling out of the air and digging into the ground.
"Definitely some broken bones," Seth thought as he lay in a crater, blood running down his mouth and several strands of pain from his right ribs assaulting his mind, but all these did not dampen the smile on his face as he ignored the pain and with kick stood up and charged back towards Dorian.
…. On the stands…
"How much can you see," Alice asked Adriana as she was unable to see a thing.
"I can follow their movements, but if I were to face any of them in physical combat, I would lose without a doubt" Adriana admitted with a pained sigh.
"But earlier you said Seth was losing, can't you stand against him," Sonia who was by Alice's side said, the days spent with the influential women have made her more comfortable around them.
"Perhaps if I used my qi and stayed in the air I could defeat him, but then again am sure he has some other techniques, so my win isn't sure," Adriana said, " I want to believe that he is a fellow Kaiser somehow hiding his cultivation, but his qi loudly speaks the truth".
"So he's really at the soldier level" Sonia whispered.
"Yes," Adriana answered with another sigh.
"To think it took just 9 days for Dorian to reach this level of power" Alice commented, "Seth can't even land a single hit".
"You should call off the fight, all he's doing is getting himself beaten at this point," Adriana said to Alice.
"He said not to interfere in the fight till he could no longer move, "Alice said.
"Booom" another loud explosion rocked the dome kicking up dust everywhere, and sending the observing trio turning back to look at the battlefield and letting out sighs as they wondered how much more messed up Seth had become after receiving such a fatal hit, but to their surprise when the dust cleared the roughed up form of Alice was revealed, walking out of the small cater she had just created".
...….
"That wasn't bad, hope you enjoyed it because it's the last time you'll touch me," Dorian said after blowing away the dust that surrounded her, staring at the dark silhouette of Seth who was still blanketed by the dust his successful axe kick had created.
Dorian had been in charge of the battle so far, dominating Seth in every aspect, she had been waiting to receive an attack from Seth, but just as Seth got close to her, his speed drastically increased, surprising her, but still not being a problem as she prepared to speed up and move out of the way of the kick he was sending her way, but like he could see the future, Seth kicked sped up and followed her movement, layering a heavy hit on her which sent her into the air, and then quickly following after her airborne figure, he delivered an axe kick which sent her to the ground.
