Chapter 221 Man Beast



Following Seth's actions, a river of blood poured out of the woman's neck, but he didn't care, his mind focused on other activities.

Like a hungry beast, Seth's body took the piece of flesh into his mouth and without hesitation began chewing.

One chew, two chews, three chews, and that was enough for Seth's body to swallow, a sense of relief flooding his body as he subconsciously licked his lips.

That he had just eaten a person was registered in Seth's mind, but he couldn't do anything, only able to watch his body devour the woman beneath him. 

With every bite that his body took from the woman, Seth lost track of himself and before he knew it, his clear mind was no more and he began seeing the woman as a juicy piece of meat to satiate his hunger.

With Seth biting out a chunk of her neck, the woman had been brought out of her pleasure-filled state and was now screaming, trying to distance herself from him.

She struggled to push him away but Seth didn't budge, the need to satisfy his hunger was the only thought on his mind.

"Gott, bitte" she screamed, tears coming to her eyes, but Seth's hungry gaze never faltered.

…..

When the woman had first barged into the room, Irene had been the first to see her, her mind immediately worrying that the woman would tell on them, but then she saw Seth's disfigured form turn and face her.

Irene had seen the fear that filled the woman's body as she turned and bolted away, but before she could understand what was happening, she saw Seth leap after her.

The sight of Seth moving around like some insect scared Irene, but she gritted her teeth and put strength into her limbs, pushing herself to her feet and dragging herself to the door, looking to go after them.

With a wrecked body, Irene was able to take herself to the door, but she didn't see either Seth or the woman, as the door led into a corridor.

A short corridor with its end being opposite Irene and two doors to the sides, but Irene didn't need to think much as the blood on the floor said it all.

Her route easily found, Irene pushed herself off the wall she had been leaning on and headed for the end of the corridor, but as she got nearer, her heartbeat got wilder and her breathing got heavier, the sounds her ears were hearing filling her with fright.

Irene's gut told her that what awaited on the other side was a scene she might regret seeing, but Irene pushed herself forward.

She wasn't in some fantasy world where she could hide and whine, and wait for a prince charming to come rescue her.

eαglesnᴏνel At the moment, the closest thing she had to a prince charming had been inflicted with injuries that would have killed her three times over.

Irene had heard the sounds coming out of Seth's mouth back when they were in the room, and she could feel the pain and desperation in them.

Right now he had scampered away in pursuit of that woman, and even though common sense told her to abandon him and try escaping on her own, she ignored it and listened to her guts.

Irene pushed forward and moved closer to the sounds that were definitely from Seth, tears trickling down her eyes as she already had an idea of the scene that awaited her.

One last heavy step and Irene crossed the line, out from the corridor and now in an open wide room.

Not needing to search, Irene's head immediately turned to the left, following the heart-wrenching sounds and eventually seeing what was producing them.

Before turning to look, Irene had prepared her mind for the worst, but the sight that greeted her eyes still had her legs feeling wobbly, threatening to collapse, but fortunately, she had stuck by the wall and was able to quickly lean on it for support.

Irene's already heavy breathing got heavier, but she forced herself to look, her hand slightly trembling as she bore witness to the most horrific sight of her life.

A man, a man who was most definitely Seth sat on his knees, his head bent down and voraciously chewing, while his hands roamed over the body beneath him, searching for chunks of meat and ripping them out. 

The man beast before her paid her no mind despite her heavy breathing which Irene personally felt were loudly ringing fire alarms.

Though spooked by the scene before her, Irene wasn't some novice cultivator, as she quickly calmed down and began noting other things in the room, Seth's back being the most glaring.

Red and sticky, Irene was about 90% sure she was looking at the biggest scab to ever exist, one which covered the entire of Seth's back and was gradually drying.

…..

Seth's disastrous feeling of hunger had ended a short while ago and he was back to himself, but he did not stop feeding.

The woman had already died by the time Seth came to, and feeling the effects of feeding on her flesh, he decided to finish what he has started, the benefits too good for him to ignore.

Seth heard Irene arrive but paid her no mind, grabbing a fistful of flesh from the side, ripping it out, and placing it in his mouth.

Unlike when he just drank blood, consuming flesh provided Seth with too little qi, but the rapid regeneration of his flash and physical strength, far outstripped what consuming blood could do, especially when one was to consider that the woman beneath him was barely at 1st stage gas soldier level cultivator.

Feeling about satisfied and remembering his current situation, Seth stood up and then all of a sudden disappeared.

The next time Seth was seen he was beside one of the windows in the room, one close to Irene who was still turning to look at his new position, and beside Seth stood a man, a man who had an arm sticking out of his chest.

"Seril," the man said, not minding Seth's presence and instead staring at what remained of the woman Seth had eaten.

Seth could see the pain and heartbreak in the man's eyes, but unfortunately, there was nothing he could do for the woman.

Seth needed to survive, and at the moment, the man before him was a high level qi charger.

A minute later, Seth lifted his head off what was now a dried-up body, letting it fall to the ground as he enjoyed the feel of qi pouring all through his body as the rest of his injuries healed and the scab on his back fell off and revealed fresh new skin.

Covered in blood, and flesh bits, Seth turned and walked up to a somewhat petrified Irene.

"Let's go," he said.
