Chapter 372 We Didn't See Him



Rias suddenly asking about his cultivation stunned Seth, but knowing the massive leap he had made in his cultivation in a very short time, it was only normal for the woman to be curious and begin asking questions.

"Oh that, I don't mind telling you, but there are several conditions you would have to fulfill," Seth said deliberately looking Rias up and down with clear hungry eyes.

Seeing what direction Seth was going with his words, Rias turned away from him and put her attention back on Aimy, having no interest in playing Seth's game.

Seeing that he had lost his source of entertainment, Seth made no further attempt on the woman, resting his head on his arms as he dreadfully decided to let his mind wander.

Thoughts on what Alice was doing and which of the prominent families to battle when he returned to earth had begun swimming in Seth's mind when he heard a sharp gasp from Rias while Roushi began humming.

"I doubt you took any precaution to hide your identity when you killed him," the old man said his words directed at Seth despite Aimy being the one before him, and having Seth's eyes open and look at him, noticing Zuroc's body hovering before the man.

"Is that a problem?"

"He knows people and has people who value him, I doubt these people will take it well if they know you did this, your days in the immortal realm won't be peaceful."

Seth wanted to make a snark remark but remembering his current condition didn't evoke a sense of positivity in him, so in the end he decided to just shrug.

"Will she be okay?"

"Yes " Roushi replied not surprised by Seth's attitude, while Rias herself looked at Seth with a penetrating gaze, her gaze not drawing his attention as he kept his focus on Roushi and Aimy this time.

A few minutes later Aimy and Roushi were done with their debriefing, Seth's throne collapsing as he gently descended and stood in front of Roushi.

"I want to leave for my world," Seth said looking at the old man.

"Well, I'm not exactly holding you back now am I?"

"I need one of those compass things."

"Well those things are gotten after you've been assigned a mission, and you haven't been assigned one."

"Because you refused to, you wordlessly kicked me out last time."

"I was hoping you'll find a mission to compete here in Ashad, and not go running around causing chaos in other worlds. Will you mind telling me how you got to Egaroth?"

"Would you mind giving me a compass?" Seth asked his words only making Roushi smile and hold up a ball that had suddenly appeared in his hand…..

"Well, I ran around Ashad, and after passing some ruins, I came upon a big square block covered with seals, and after understanding the seal on it, I activated it and was taken to Egaroth.

To Seth's words, Roushi made no reaction, and while Rias had a look that said she didn't believe him, Seth paid her no mind, instead observing the ball he had been given.

"You'll be given a mission relative to your strength to complete and when you're done, you will be rewarded and the orb will also let you get back to your world of origin."

"Do I have to teach you how to use it?" Roushi asked looking at Aimy.

"I guess not "Seth mumbled. 

"Okay" Roushi replied and the next second Seth found himself subject to some really bright rays of light, his figure no longer surrounded by the church's sturdy walls.

"Its day time" Seth commented looking around and spotting the church a distance away.

"He didn't even let us walk out" Seth grumbled and looked to Aimy who was by his side, looking at him.I think you should take a look at

"Are you really okay?" Aimy asked and Seth could see the genuine worry in her eyes.

"A meal and a good bath would be excellent, but first we need to find a meal."

"How do we do that, only monsters stay here in Ashad, I'm not keen on eating them," Aimy said.

"Don't push your little mind too much, just do what I tell you" Seth said, stroking Aimy's cheek and getting a nod from her.

...….

"You didn't kill him" Rias couldn't help but say when Seth left.

"For your sake just forget about him Rias, you don't want to get yourself tangled in the mess that he is."

Rias was silent for a few seconds and then she spoke.

"His words about how he got to Egaroth, were they true, was he talking about the black block."

"Yes"

"So you truly believe that he discerned those writings, those are near semi-runes, even a team of masters need a day to understand the first of writings."

"That is true Roushi said" showing his disinterest in the matter, but Rias was just too curious and couldn't help but ask another question.

"What about his cultivation, you didn't seem surprised by it, were you involved."

For this question, Rias earned Roushi's gaze moving to her.

"No Rias, I didn't help him do anything, whatever he did, he did it alone, and am not curious about it because like I told you, he's a mess, and if you involve yourself with him, you'll only find yourself drowned and doomed."

"What of the girl, is she from a dragon clan branch, you saw her fire." Rias couldn't help but question.

"That's enough Rias, the little episode we had with him today never happened, tell no one about it"

To Roushi's words, Rias nodded her head, her eyes following Roushi to look at the rest of the church but in her mind, several thoughts on a particular man went flying about.

That she hadn't joined the rest of the cultivators in gazing at Seth's torn-out flesh didn't mean that she hadn't been tempted to.

The desire to stare at Sword Qi and hope to be one of those blessed ones and understand the essence of sword qi had gnawed on Rias's mind, but as Roushi's assistant and a far more powerful and experienced cultivator, she had kept herself in place.

As amazing as the sword qi was, the fact that Seth had taken such an attack and still survived it, amazed Rias more.

Putting herself in his position, the woman knew what her fate would be, and it had no room for her seeing the sunlight of the next day.

It had just been three months yet Seth had grown so much that even she was now wary of him and this was while he was injured, and then there was the issue of the dragon girl.

"The compass will give him a mission relative to his strength, Ashad isn't designed to handle people with his strength.

Hmm, there is also the fact that he is returning to his world with such a cultivation level, we are obliged to stop him, guess we'll just let him go" Rias went on mumbling to herself, her words audible to Roushi.

"Well, it's a good thing we didn't see him then" the man commented as the next cultivator finished climbing the stairs of the altar and came before him.
