Corrupt Creations

Serene you can open your eyes.

"Anh?! Already? I thought it would take a lot of time."

"Nah, I just did a minor check up on you and everything is okay. Although, there is indeed something that will take a lot of time."

"Huh? What is it?" Serene asked confused.

"Your studies!"

"My studies?"

"Yeah, now that you've awakened your Qi energy, I will impart our Clan techniques with you, in parallel, you can train in the Hades Manual, since you've read it too."

"Ehhh, ummm... I didn't read it all, just some parts." Serene avoided making eye contact with him due to her embarrassment.

Seth looked at her with a strange expression. He didn't know she has gotten that lazy.

"I was too lazy to do it okay! Before you judge me like that, you have to know that I never thought I would be able to cultivate in my entire life."

"Sigh, don't worry, I will impart the knowledge with you, since I have thought a way to do it through our Soul Link."

"Yay! That is my man! The Best!"

"I like that, why don't you call me as your man more often?" Seth got excited after hearing her words.

"Oh! I didn't know my man had such a side to him." Serene said, spicing things up between them.

Seth was about to go on offensive again, but just as he was about to assault her, he heard a different sound.

Knock! Knock! Knock!

Petunia knocked on the door three times and Seth instantly knew that his time was ending.

"Sigh... I guess our time together is about to end. Let me quickly impart the knowledge with you, since I can't delay it any longer."

Seth went forwards and put his hand on top of Serene's head. With a bit of concentration, he channeled his soul energy through the Soul Link he had with her. The information present on his soul essence was activated, transferring a lot of data regarding the cultivation world for her.

The information she received contained a lot of crucial topics regarding on how to cultivate. The cultivation levels, how to advance, when to do it and how to train. After that, she received information about the element of darkness; some dark techniques and how to master it. At the end of all the data poured inside her mind, there was the complete version of the Hades Manual.

Seth figured out how to send her that information after observing the way his strength was transferred to her just now. He was a fast learner and figured out this trick. He saw that he could transfer his Mana through the Soul Link, so he didn't actually send her his memories, but energy pulses made of Mana that contained all that information. Like he was transferring to her, his skills in the form of a Skillbook, those stones that contained information.

It meant that she has received images or texts that could explain her how to use all those abilities, but she would have to understand it all by herself. It was like he just dumped thousands of books right inside her head.

Serene felt a light headache after receiving all that information. She felt like she would have material to study for ten years straight. But at the same time, she was a bit excited. There was a whole new world waiting for her to discover.

"Serene, hear me out. Do not let anyone discover about your awakening, not even Petunia. It's not that I don't trust her, it's just that Velgor has a lot of different ways to discover things about you, so I would rather not take the risk. I'll give you back the bracelet you gifted me. Remember to use it always."

"No, that's a gift I gave you."

"I know about that. Do not worry, I will take it back after you don't need it anymore." Seth said with a smile.

"Alright."

Seth gave her the bracelet he used to hide his strength, he wouldn't need it anymore, so it would be better for it to stay with her. He had already checked to see if Velgor did any tricks with that bracelet, but he found nothing different.

"Remember that this bracelet cannot fool Velgor, but anyone other than him won't notice your cultivation if you set it to hide it, so keep hidden here until he leaves the palace. It's time for me to go. I don't know when it will be the next time, I'll be able to see you again, however, I promise that I will save you from that destiny, even if I have to steal you."

"There is no need for you to promise me anything. I believe your words... I will wait. Until the last minute I will keep waiting." Serene said while gazing directly at his eyes.

Seth saw that she had confidence on him. Actually, she had deposited her hopes on him. He felt an immense pressure from her gaze alone, because he knew that her life depended on his actions.

The determination he was building up until now, turned into conviction. He would save her and nothing was going to stop him from doing so.

"I'll be going... I love you."

Some tears started to appear on her eyes, but she suppressed it.

"I love you too. Go..."

Seth turned back and opened the formation, leaving her room without turning back, because he felt that if he tried to look at her again, he would hesitate to leave.

Serene kept looking at the door he just passed through. She could only cry silently, cursing destiny to make her life so bitter. Her life has always been about parting ways with people, be it because of life or death.

Drip! Drip!

"I don't want this kind of life!"

Serene concentrated on the knowledge she received from Seth, studying it in a crazed manner. That was the only thing she could do to help him out even if just a bit.

Petunia was waiting on the other side of the door.

Seth greeted her and thanked for everything she did. She basically diverged the attention of the eyes directed towards Serene. Seth knew that Velgor would keep her under watch, so he asked Petunia to do something about the people that could bother him. She was the only servant he trusted inside the entire Royal Demonic Shadow Clan and he was lucky for her position to be high enough to aid him with something like that.

"Young Master Seth, what are you planning to do now?"

"Petunia, you don't need to be worried about me, I will find a way. Please, make sure to accompany Serene, because sometimes, it is too lonely around here."

"Do not worry Young Master Seth. This old servant will take care of lady Serene as if she were my own daughter. That is what I promised her mother after all."

"That's good to hear. Take care."

"Good bye Young Master."

Seth entered the main castle again. He could not see any signs of the banquet that happened right on the main hall yesterday. The guests must have left already, since it was already evening.

There was one last thing he needed to do before leaving this place. He wanted to ask for something to the Demon Emperor Velgor.

Seth arrived in the Demon's Emperor Throne Hall and saw that Velgor was sitting there on his throne. Seth didn't need an appointment to talk with him, because he was his direct disciple.

"What brings you here, Seth?" Velgor asked with his eyes closed. He seemed to be musing over something, or planning for other things.

Seth approached him and bowed with respect, however, he made sure to hide the murderous glint that was passing through his eyes.

"Master, I want to take part on the conflict between the Wu Martial Kingdom and the Blazing Phoenix Sect."

"Hm?" Velgor opened his eyes confused.

"Didn't you live inside the Blazing Phoenix Sect for the past months? What do you want to do? Have you developed some sort of feelings towards that place?" Velgor narrowed his eyes.

"Master, you are wrong. It's just that I have discovered something interesting and wanted to obtain it for myself."

"Oh? What is it?"

"Master, when I entered the Fire Labyrinth, I was lucky enough to glimpse upon the majestic fire of their so-called Phoenix God. However, after observing him for a bit I could just feel disappointment. Their exalted Phoenix God is nothing more than a Profound Mana Spirit Beast."

"Is that so? Where do you want to get with this conversation?"

"Heh... He was boasting his almighty power before us humans, but was only average at best. The thing is... He was guarding a treasury. I was able to feel the rich aura of the treasures inside it and cannot help but yearn to acquire them. It's just that with this disciple's cultivation, it was impossible for me to go against him."

Seth continued: "So I was thinking about some things on the last night and discovered that it may be possible for us to enter that labyrinth again. It is a hidden dimension that stays above their sect grounds, but their sect master has some sort of technique to forge those Fire Labyrinth tokens.

Maybe he can help us enter it before the time arrives."

"That may be possible. What do you plan to do then?" Velgor kept observing Seth to see if he was trying to do something different.

"What I have to say is.... I want to participate on the war in order to conquer the Blazing Phoenix Sect!"
