"I see light' Seth suddenly said, his eyes having been staring at Dilise direction of departure the whole time.
With his exceptional ears, Seth easily detected the sound of three distinct footsteps approaching, but he attributed the additional feet to the maids carrying the food, Seth was not able to stop a smile from climbing atop his face as he imagined how large the food had to be for two people to be needed in carrying it.
Seth stood to his feet and immediately walked to the front of the cell, holding on to the bars as he waited for Dilise to come to him
Clack! Clack! Clack! Their footsteps echoed all around, as their figure drew ever nearer, and by the time the image of Dilise appeared before Seth, the eagerness and anticipation which had filled him disappeared.
There was no rich and smile creating aroma, no cute maid or sexy chef, and most importantly, no food.
Dilise had returned with empty hands, and as for the people behind her, two soldiers dressed in leather armor, probably the prison guards, other than the gloves covering their hands, their palms carried nothing else.
"There is no food," Seth said in disbelief, a grumble from his stomach accompanying his words.
It was funny how a lot of people took hunger for granted, the average normal human never really had to worry about it, while almost all cultivators who crossed into the soldier level never knew what hunger felt like in their lives.
As a cultivator, Seth should have been able to go weeks and perhaps even months without feeding, but normal cultivator norms had never applied to Seth, and right now was another situation, but this time he was on the losing end,
Dreary body, occasional stomach spasms, heavy eyes and brain, and coupled with the device that had been stuck in his hands, Seth felt like shit and was barely holding himself together.
Seth wanted to speak but held his mouth shut, tightening his grip on the bars of his cell as he looked down at the floor.
Perhaps he would have ranted perhaps he wouldn't, perhaps he would have gone all violent and tried to grab Dilise, perhaps he wouldn't.
At the moment, Seth felt like a drug addict who was suffering from withdrawal symptoms, and his tightening fists were the only thing keeping his body from trembling and him lashing out.
"Open it "the voice of Dilise sounded, bringing Seth out of his reverie and having him look up at her and then to the guard who moved up to the cell, placed a key in its keyhole, and began turning the key.
Just a normal prison, there wasn't anything special about the cell, yet Seth knew he just couldn't escape it on his own, the armguards on his arm more than made sure of that.
Firming up his will, Seth let go of the bar and turned to the soldier who walked into the prison, grabbed him by the arm, and without saying a thing began pulling him out.
One second he was in a cell, the next second he was out of it, yet that didn't change his status as a prisoner.
"Where are we going," Seth decide to ask seeing as no one was going to tell him a thing.
"Oh, sorry, we're going to get you something to eat," Dilise said with a smile.
"Great, take her out also then," Seth said, his face turning to the direction of Irene's cell which he could now see, Seth was able to make out the features of the right side of her cell, but unfortunately he couldn't see her due to her extreme position to the left of her cell.
"Sorry but I want to talk to you alone, I'll have someone come over and bring her a meal," Dilise said.
"Well if she's not coming, then I'm not going" Seth grumbled out, turning and beginning to walk back to his cell before his path was blocked by the really wide figure of the guard.
"I know am at my weakest, but am sure I can still create quite the mess," Seth said turning to face Dilise and looking the woman in the eye, the both of them maintaining eye contact for a while before Dilise eyes moved away.
"Fine, but only if you promise not to hatch or attempt any escaping scheme," Dilise said.
"I wasn't aware you had so much faith in my promises," Seth said in bewilderment.
"Will that be a problem?"
"No, as long as you don't harm any of us".
Some seconds of silence passed with Dilise mulling over Seth's words or perhaps the consequence of releasing Irene, but in the end, she finally spoke the magic words.
"Release her".
Seth could feel reluctance from the guards, and as much as he wanted to bash the bastards in the skull, he held himself back, there was no need to complicate matters and extend his time to get a meal.
Despite their hesitation, the guards moved their legs and walked up to Irene's cell, a few jingling of their keys, and the door to Irene's cell was opened, the cute and sexy figure of Irene came into Seth's view a few seconds later.
Irene moved like a ghost, there was not a single sound from her feet as she soundlessly moved out of her cell, went past the guards, and when she arrived by Seth's side, she bowed before Dilise, not saying a single word as after he silent appreciation, she moved and stood behind Seth.
One head, two eyes, blah, blah, blah, Seth's eyes roamed all over Irene as he check and make sure she was alright, and then when that was done, his eyes went to her heavy chest.
Pressing against the blue free blouse she wore, Seth found himself internally complaining about the clothe's inability to be generous with its cleavage viewing when Dilise's words snapped him back to reality.
"Can we leave now?"
Dilise politeness and thoughtfulness towards him had a lot of questions popping up in Seth's head, but he pushed those thoughts to the back of his mind as the filling of his stomach was a top priority.
Seth took one last look at Iren clean and clear face, her hair still neatly lying over her shoulders, and after staring into her clear brown eyes, he turned back to Dilise.
"Let's go," Seth said, his legs already pushing forward as he walked ahead, setting a pace that required everyone to put in some effort as they hurriedly followed him.
Please report us if you find any errors so we can fix it asap!
