Chapter 239 Not Interested

"He's a loyal dog that can be used to my benefit." He laughed at the prospect.

'You're not the one who slept with him, so how would you care about the repercussions?' Sesa sneered in her thoughts. Hating herself for going through with that sort of experiment.

After the failed experiment with Obsidian, she had been cautioned by Zhao to make a body connection with her creations.

'He's just a youngster, why did I put up with this?' She cried in her thoughts, her eyes tearing up once more.

"Tch-" He scoffed when he saw her tears trail down her face. "I never put you up to be this weak-hearted."

Sniffling, she wiped her running nose and cleaned off the tears with her sleeve.

Those words no matter how innocent it was, were more of a warning. If she were to be useless to him, she could bid goodbye to the living and join the very things she used to conduct some of her experiments.

'Pull yourself together! Do you want to die as a nameless nobody?' She scolded herself in her thoughts.

Forcing a smile on her face, she tried to be as positive about everything as possible.

"What do you have planned, master?" She gave a bow, using the opportunity to vent out her frustration and anger as she stared at his shoe.

"How about you stop cursing me behind my back or in your mind? Maybe we can move on to the most important." He suggested with a devilish smirk.

His words left her stunned and confused as to how he had managed to guess her actions. Easing her tense muscles, she pulled on the collar of her top and gulped.

Sweat dripping on her pants, she was skeptical about going on with her defense, "master, I would ne–"

"Why am I not surprised?" He snapped, "count yourself lucky once more, don't give me funny ideas."

Sesa bobbed her head in response, understanding what he meant. If she had made him have funny ideas, then she'd be the joke.

He could only think of one thing and that was to get his elixir, this would give him a sense of relief and confidence in finishing what he had started.

"Find Zhao, use that pathetic assistant of yours if you have to!" He sneered, shaking his head, and paced about.

Even if it felt like he was on the verge of losing what he cherished, he had thought of the best torture method he could use on the culprit. They couldn't be let to live if they had the balls to specifically take what was his.

'What are you planning?!' He thought, giving a punch on the wall.

Krr!

A dent was made on the brick wall as some of its rubbles dropped to the ground.

Sesa pushed back in fear, she couldn't have a settled mind until he was gone. 'Please leave!'

As if listening in on her thoughts, he looked towards Sesa with a devious smirk. "I need a report after 24 hours."

"Of course." She replied immediately.

Opening a portal, he stepped in with one leg and the other out. It was as though he had forgotten something and looked back out and at Sesa.

Sesa's heart thumped hard as she wondered why he had looked at her.

"Lest I forget," he spoke and activated the glow in his eyes, and stared directly at her pendant.

"Mmfff!!" Sesa hissed in pain, gritting her teeth as the pendant glowed, transmitting mutated cells through her chest, causing a burning sensation.

When he was satisfied, he released his hold on the pendant. "That's just a brief preview of what would happen to you if you dare to connive with Zhao."

Sesa was in a breathy mess, she had her hand on her chest and tore at the place where she had felt the pain.

"There's no need to check if it's mutated, I had stopped it before it could do a great deal of damage." He laughed and clicked his tongue.

Sesa let out a sigh of relief and fell on her back.

"Go cover yourself up, I'm not interested." He snickered and walked through the portal.

As soon as the portal closed up, Sesa gritted her teeth and repeatedly hit the ground in rage.

'How could he punish and refer to me that way?!' She thought as hot tears trailed sideways, going into her ears.

Forcing herself to sit up, she shook off the tears from her ears and sniffled. "Crying won't take you anywhere."

Crawling towards Arion, she pulled him by the collar but immediately let go when she saw saliva trail out of the corner of his lips.

'Gross!' She grimaced in disgust.

The thought of offering herself to an incompetent fool just for some experiment made her cringe in regret.

Picking him up again by the collar, she slapped him hard and across the face.

He was still unconscious after that and it made her madder about what had happened.

She could only blame her master for placing him in the state Arion was in.

Left with no choice, she intentionally dropped him so she could watch him drop to the floor.

Placing her hand over his chest, she channeled a bit of her healing aura into him.

He woke up with a gasp and pulled her by the collar into a kiss.

Sesa freaked out with wide eyes as she stared at Arion and went mad in her thoughts, 'do you have a death wish?!'

Pushing herself up, she wiped her lips, getting some of the pink lipstick on her sleeves.

Cross popping veins made their way to her forehead as she stared at it.

"Miss Sesa, you had–"

Unable to take it anymore, she balled her hands in a fist and punched him hard across the face.

Arion held onto his face in shock and disappointment. He had not understood why she had suddenly turned physical.

Sesa let out a scream in frustration, "why the hell is this happening to me?!! Ahh!!!"

Arion blinked several times in confusion, all he could remember was her looking at her sleeves smeared with lipstick–that he didn't understand how it got there.

Sesa's hand was on her face as she let out a peal of crazed laughter, thinking of the various things she could do to Zhao for suggesting such an experiment to the others.

Arion pushed back, skeptical about going along with her anymore. He still didn't understand why the room that was once dark was suddenly a bit visible.

Bang!

"F*ck, damnit!" Arion spat as she crashed into the edge of a stool. He had gotten so used to the darkness that he had thought there couldn't be any furniture.

Sesa brought her hand down and got to her feet. Walking slowly towards an unsure Arion.

Offering out her hand towards Arion, she gestured for him to take it.

Taking it, she pulled him up to his feet. "Would you please stop acting like a complete moron?"

He nodded his head in response and dusted his shirt.

"Come along, we got some hunting to do." She walked towards the exit, waving him along.

Running along to meet up with her, Arion was curious about what sort of game they were going after and a chance of going outside the walls of the organization.

"It's not an animal we're after," Sesa snickered, her eyes temporarily glowing as she thought of one person that fit into her description–Zhao.

"It's a person I see," Arion laughed, not bothered by the choice. "He had been wishing to test out his rusty skills, practicing in his new room wasn't enough, he needed someone to test it on.

"You sure are excited," she observed as she crossed the threshold of the exit and paused to turn around.

Arion stopped just in time before they could collide.

When she began to make advances toward him, flashes of what had happened between them in the sanctuary crossed his mind.

His face turned red when he realized that there was a torn part on her fishnet top.

Sesa could understand where his thoughts were headed and could only smile at her hold on him. Placing her hand in his face, she outlined his jawline and leaned forward to whisper in his ear.

"Do you know what is more fun?" She seductively whispered.

Arion gulped and cursed at the fact he got a boner just from her words.

"Getting the game and not slacking around!" She snapped and pulled on his ear.

"Ow! Ow!" Arion grimaced and pulled away just in time.

He had not expected such a response and was more than shocked that she had resorted to such a cheap trick.

"Come on," she harrumphed. "We don't have the whole day."

Deep in her thoughts, she meant it, her timer given by her master was already ticking.

–––––––––––

Watching from above was a purple gecko from the ceiling, its tail swayed as it ran across the ceiling and out of the room just in time before its doors closed trapping it.

'Mr. Zhao needs to know about this.'
