Chapter 391 Divorce Her

Chapter 391 Divorce Her

"Sir I'm truly sorry about the chaos you had to see in the building, the information of the beast tide was kind of apocalyptic, so everyone lost their nerves and panicked."

"Yeah, it's okay," Seth said, his eyes closed as he savoured the taste of the liquid in his mouth and then slowly opening his eyes, he looked at the yellow liquid in the glass with a smile.

"This is quite good Gudzil, where did you get it."

"Ehrmm it's homemade sir, my wife has a thing for making such drinks," Gudzil replied.

"She would make a good maid" Seth said flicking his tongue and further relaxing himself into the couch and then he looked up at Gudzil.

"When do you plan on divorcing her."

"Divorce her sir,"

"Yeah, she makes very good drinks, I currently lack a maid, she would make a fine one," Seth said as he took another drink from the cup in his hand

While Seth casually drank his orange juice, Gudzil who was beside him stood frozen and internally filled with dread as he heard Seth's words.

Initially, he had been proud to know that his wife could make a drink that would satisfy a bigshot like the man before him, but now hearing the man's words, Gudzil feared that he had only dug a hole for himself.

Though he had made contemplations of involving another woman in him and his wife's sex sessions, that didn't mean he didn't love her or wanted to get rid of her, unlike most men who lost it after making huge success, even without loving his wife, Gudzil deeply valued her, and couldn't imagine himself divorcing a rare find like her.

Gudzil wanted to communicate his immediate rejection of Seth's idea but as his eyes once more looked toward the man, the memory of what had happened some minutes ago entered his mind and he shivered.

Before Ukota town's wall was an army of beasts, the beasts ruthlessly charging forward with the intention to crush everything in their path, and just as Gudzil had been expecting the mysterious man before him to perform some all-powerful attack, the man had merely infused qi into his voice and then spoke.

"All of you calm down and return to the forest, you are in no danger."

Words that one would say to a group of panicked civilians, these were the words the man had spoken to a ferocious and angry-looking beast but then to Gudzil's greatest shock, the beast had put a brake to their march, doing their best to stop in their tracks and then with a sense of patience, they began moving back into the forest.

Sure, something similar had happened during the previous beast tide, the beast suddenly stopping their attacks and then afterwards returning to the forest, that had only happened after they had charged the walls of Ukota and nearly taken it down.

Though combined with Seth's sudden appearance and the beast's fear towards him, many including Gudzil had attributed the events of that day to Seth, that had still been nothing but speculations, and even they had thought he had performed some all-powerful technique beforehand but now Gudzil knew the truth and it was a very simple one.

The man sitting before him needed but a word to have beasts do his bidding, and that combined with his Kaiser-level cultivation and his offer to reward him a rank 6 beast made Seth a very powerful man and one in whom's grace Gudzil would love to be in.

Though both his brain and heart agreed on the value of his wife, his heart and brain differed when it came to weighing his wife's importance against Seth's.

Sighing within his mind at how things in life can change in a matter of seconds, Gudzil spoke.

"I'm not divorcing my wife, sir."

Not coating his words or trying to soften them, Gudzil gave his answer and as he did, he firmly looked at Seth, holding his ground when Seth looked up at him and their gaze met.

Seconds passed and Gudzil could feel his body starting to tremble and his eyes starting to sting, all this was a byproduct of Seth's naturally more powerful gaze and soon he could hold on no more and looked away.

As Gudzil looked away, he began breathing hard, his body tensing and preparing for the worst that was to come, but in the end, all he heard was a chuckle from the man sitting before him.

"Why so tense and scared all I asked was a question and all you needed to do was simply answer, nothing more, or were you offended by it."

Hearing Seth's words, Guzdil's shoulder fell and relief flooded him thankful that the man had only been joking as he had already begun considering several horrible scenarios.

Though Gudzil took some offence to Seth's words, he didn't dare speak about it and could only nod his head with a tight smile.

"It's nice to see genuine love," Seth said, the seriousness and solemness of his tone having Gudzil stand at attention as he wondered what was happening.

"I told a woman I loved her, and in the end what I got was rejection.

I was rejected by a woman who has been all about bombarding me with how much she loved me, what do you think."

"Ehrrrm" Gudzil drawled, really not understanding how their conversation had shifted to them talking about love, but in the end, he quickly focused his mind on the task and gave his answer.

"If she has been in love with you and is now suddenly denying to love you, then either she's scared of something or no longer loves you."

This answer Gudzil gave with a bit of fear, keenly watching for Seth's reaction and when he saw the man mulling more than necessary, he added a few words,

"But knowing the man you are sir, then it must be the former option, the lady most likely has some insecurities and just needs some assurance."

After his latest words, Gudzil cursed whichever woman it was that had rejected Seth and put him in this situation, internally grumbling at how troublesome women were, the thought that a woman would even think about rejecting the all-powerful man before him irritated him.

Soon Gudzil's internal rambling was cut short as a light smile came to Seth's face and he spoke.

"I guess you're right."

Though Gudzil's first option had been Seth's initial thought, he had decided to seek Gudzil's words to be sure he was making no mistake, and though the second option was still an extreme possibility, Seth wasn't worried as he didn't mind reteaching Alexia how to love him.

"What a troublesome woman," Seth thought as he focused on Gudzil once more.

"Hmm you should be ready for us to leave so you get your beast, but first what is the latest happening within the kingdom."

Though Seth's first words had Gudzils's heartbeat pick up in excitement, the next of his words had him scrunching his forehead, and then the next second a light bulb went off.

"Though there was uncertainty about the National Sealing Tournament holding due to the civil war in the country, it has just been confirmed that it would happen." Gudzil quickly answered but Seth's answer was far from what he expected.

"There's a civil war."
