Battle and Sex Is All A Primordial Fiend Needs

Vleren Irene, this was the woman Edwin wanted at the moment, and unfortunately for him, Ella had her in her custody.

When Seth had suddenly run off, Edwin could only watch and accept that Seth had gone to gallivant around his city once more, unhindered.

Though Edwin was worried about Seth, he was still left with the woman had partnered up with, and fortunately Ella had dealt with it, deciding to personally keep an eye on the woman until Seth returned.

Thoughts of Irene had almost completely left Edwin's mind till late in the night when the city came under attack.

Having already blamed Seth for the attack, Edwin had rushed to check on the princess considering she and Minuha had been left alone with Irene.

Edwin found the princess safe and sound, and after receiving reassurance from Minuha, the man had left them and gone to deal with the war that had come to Monwac city and after embarrassingly being forced to lock himself within the inner city and then handling the matter with the infiltrators, his mind had finally bounced back to Irene.

Feeling all sorts of emotions for Seth at the moment, Edwin wouldn't hesitate to have the man's family tortured and even executed if it could get him the answers he desired, but at the moment, he could only settle for his partner.

Edwin had met Ella, asking for her to hand over Irene so he could extract information from her, but to his surprise, the woman had refused.

Edwin had pestered and tried to seek a reason, but for some reason, Ella staunchly refused to hand over Irene.

Truth be told, Ella's behavior already had Edwin suspecting Ella of if possible being a traitor, though he had no plans to act on that thought considering even he acknowledged it as his paranoid speaking.

Edwin was a city lord and commander, with the vies of his men and thousands of civilians hanging on his decisions, and to be honest, he would have loved to ignore  Ella's words and take Irene into custody, but a couple of things stopped him.

Not to mention the amount of trouble he would be in when he was called to the capital, the main thing that kept him in line when dealing with the princess was Minuha.

There were tons of rumors, hidden rumors about the woman called Minuha, with most of them talking about her being some legendary assassin.

Before, Edwin would only have put half faith into these rumors, but considering that she alone had been able to detect a couple of high level infiltrators all without being found out, spoke volumes of her sneaking prowess.

Oh how Edwin wished he could have the woman help in dealing with the situation before him, but despite his many pleas, she had turned him down, not forgetting to remind him that her first priority was making sure to remain fit and able to escape with the princess whenever was necessary, and this wasn't something even the princess could change.

After his first word of provocation, Edwin would have stopped his taunts if Minuha had shown any sign of objection, but considering he had felt nothing from the always not visible but very present woman, he took it as her also agreeing with him but not able to go against the princess.

"Your right princess, and am sorry for letting current frustrations get the better of me" Edwin egged on when he saw Ella's face freeze up as she struggle to arrive at a decision

"I believe that for your safety and the safety of all of Monwac, we shouldn't leave any stone unturned, otherwise we will only be wishing the same pain and anguish which we both now feel on the common people".

With the suppressed and bottled emotions that filled her, manipulating Ella's emotions with his words wasn't hard, and as the man looked into her shaky eyes, he could already see his victory within them, but this victory was snatched out of his grip by the cries of a stupid soldier who Edwin seriously felt like whipping.

"Commander, commander" the ignorant idiot screamed, Edwin brushing away his grievance with the man and pushing himself to his feet when he saw the panic and restlessness of the heavily heaving man.

"Damn it, you're a cultivator, grab a hold of your breath and spit out what you have to say" Edwin barked, his words sending the soldier standing up straight and speaking.

"At the gate, there is something big heading towards the gate we can't properly identify it at the moment, but it might be a new strategy by the enemy" the soldier wheezed out.

Almost as soon as the soldier was done talking, Edwin shot up into the air heading for the wall, his form unable to be stopped by his ever-meddling healers, and some seconds after his departure, the ground beneath Ella turned pitch black, and the woman sinking into a pool of shadows.

It didn't take long for Edwin to arrive atop the walls that looked down on the only gate that led into the inner city, but instead of looking down at the dozens of catapults and hundreds of men that stood just outside the gate, his eyes instead stretched into the distance, looking past the enemy soldiers and several buildings till it could make out a tall blue something.

"Commander, "one of the soldiers said after running over, the man probably being the leader of the men manning this portion of the wall.

"Get me a telescope" Edwin ordered, ad almost like he had expected it, a telescope appeared in the man's hand which he immediately handed over to Edwin.

A few seconds after Edwin began looking through the telescope, a black pool appeared beside Edwin, Ella's form rising out of it.

"SETH" the words venomously left Edwin's mouth not too long after, followed by a short tremor being felt all through the city.

"Damn, what is the bastard planning this time" Edwin muttered having seen Seth's soaring figure throw down some item before the tremor occurred,
