Chapter 491 Creations Greatest Joke
It had all turned blurry for Seth, the disappearance of Alexia the death of Rose, and now the appearance of a woman to whom his body was being submissive.
Though the issues were simple clear things that he should be able to understand, Seth's mind failed to come to terms with and process the two major events for which he found himself having no control.
Everything felt lost to Seth, and as he looked for a way out, a way to make sense of what was going on, he turned to his power, the thing that made him who he was, the thing responsible for making his desires a possibility and his dream something he could grasp, but when Seth turned to power only to find it scampering away and hiding, he couldn't help but further fume.
It felt like Seth was some puppet that had no will, someone to be used by his bloodline and energies and when he needed them, they would bail on him without care.
Seth's anger at the one aspect of his life that was meant to be his cornerstone actually had him pushing aside the issue of Alexia and Rose and focusing on his cursed self.
Perhaps Seth would have gone drastic and ripped himself apart or ravaged his mind so much that he would break it, one would never know because before any of those things could happen, the man was told that he had a mother-in-law.
"I have a mother-in-law," Seth said, his mind instantly clearing up as he looked up and finally had a look at the person standing before him.
With what he saw, Seth should have jumped to his feet and quickly gotten cautious, but instead, his mood instantly changed and he calmly stood to his feet and stared at the woman before him in the eye.
"You possessed Rose's body," Seth said as he lifted his hand to touch the face of Rose's body, which was now off the ground and standing before him.
"Good, at least you're smart enough to figure out that much yourself," the woman said, her expression not changing the slightest despite the fingers of Seth's hand, which he had raised to touch Rose's face, actually disintegrating.
"Don't ever try to touch me again," the woman said, still calmly staring at Seth like nothing was happening.
"You still haven't answered my question," Seth said, withdrawing his hand as it quickly began healing, his flesh regrowing.
"And there goes your intelligence. I take it your dick has taken over the thinking."
Seth's lips pursed at the words of the woman before him, while his mind ruminated on the idea that either Alexia or Rose was his wife.
After all, the woman did say she was his mother-in-law, and he could only conclude one of the two women was her daughter, though he did wonder considering he hadn't married any of them.
"Which of them is your child?" Seth asked, deciding to seek clarification.
"Hmmm, let's see one married you, the other was cheated out of you, and as for which is my daughter, well, for now, I won't say. I don't want that brain of yours having unnecessary thoughts."
The woman stayed silent for some time, waiting for Seth to take in her words, and then she continued speaking.
"For the two women, Riose and Alexia, stop worrying about them, because they aren't dead.
What Alexia sacrificed was a portion of herself to live with you and then save your life, and so as not to belittle her efforts, I will tell you that it was not a small sacrifice.
As for Rose, the woman you have been interacting with so far, this body which I am now possessing is nothing but one of her thousand clones.
In essence, what I am telling you is that the two women whom you have been falling over heels for are both powerful almighty beings and that none of their bodies were ever here. Is that clear?"
Seth stayed silent for close to a minute, coming to grasp with what he had just heard, and then he replied.
"No, I still can't get my head around all you're saying."
"Well, too bad, because I don't really care if you understand me. I'm here for my own agenda."
"And what makes you think I'll help you if you don't tell me what I want to know?" Seth quickly said, a frown on his face, unhappy with the woman's dismissive attitude.
"Really, so what you're telling me is that you'll refuse my offer of power because I refused to share some juicy gossip with you. With each reincarnation, it seems you just keep getting dumber."
"You're annoying," Seth suddenly said just after the woman finished speaking, and if he was looking to further earn her ire, the smile she sent him told him he had.
With just that one look from the eyes of Rose, Tion's entire body trembled till he was on his knees and then prostrated, and then he felt a pair of legs on his back.
"This is nice. I wonder if it's enough to have that arrogant consciousness of yours waking up and wanting to rage."
While the woman spoke, her shapely butt resting on the air while the legs rested on Seth's back, the humiliated man in person was buried in deep fury.
He wanted nothing more than to stand up and completely destroy the woman before him, break and rebuild her until she begged for mercy. There were so many evil plans that Seth had in his mind for the woman, but unfortunately, he found himself horribly lacking.
Not a single cell in Seth's body obeyed him. Seth felt like a prisoner in his body, and he kneeled on the floor and let his back be used as a bench. Then, just before Seth could go cursing, he felt a familiar energy bubble within him.
"How pathetic both you and it," The woman suddenly said as she lifted her legs off Seth and then without care, kicked him away, sending his body rolling and bouncing in the dust like he were an ordinary can.
"A little bit of this, and you're about to go all raging, not even worried about what the consequences will be.
The primordial fiend is Creation's greatest joke."
