497 Cajoling My Pride
With just his instincts, Seth knew there was a lot of truth to Denise's words.
Seth so much badly wanted to dip his hand into the volumes of knowledge that he had just lying around but he knew that doing so would only quicken the overwriting of his current personality and most importantly, strengthen his curse.
Usually in such matters, Seth would be quick to make a decision, using his mood to determine whether to go violent to peaceful, for this such on which would determine his future he hesitated and for several minutes stayed silent. Read latest chapters at nov(e)lbin.com Only
"While I have no issue with waiting for you to take even a hundred years to arrive at a decision, unfortunately, we don't have so long as the more time that passes, the more you'll lose yourself to your curse of pride.
If it's so hard for you to make a choice then you can try to remember all the times you died, though I'll advise that you try not to carryover over the emotions." Denise spoke after a while, this time with a smirk on her face.
"What's amusing you" Seth asked, still sensible enough to be wary of Denise.
"Nothing much, I'm just interested in seeing what you will decide,
Will you either trust me and chart a new course or will you believe in yourself and end up dead once more."
"Ha, ha, ha, ha, ha"
Seth stayed silent for a while and then after that he began laughing rubbing his head in disbelief at himself.
"Can't believe I've been stressing myself this much.
Tell me Denise can I trust you." Seth asked and though he was peering down at Rose's body his gaze was locked deep on the soul that had possessed it.
"Yes," Denise simply answered.
"Good, so tell me, what's the plan."
"You have a point there and seeing as I have already started, I will keep trusting you, but just be aware though that it won't be lasting for long," Seth said and though Denise wanted to speak to him some more about it, she recognized the finality in his tone and so returned to delivering him info about her solution.
"Well whatever fantastical plans you have about being with me, you will need to put them on hold as the next steps which we would be taking won't allow for such.
"Yeaaah, so tell me, what's the incredible solution to this amazing problem of mine."
Denise nodded her head when she saw that she had Seth's interest and attention, and without delay, she began speaking.
"After your enormous blunder with the enemy, you got one of your women killed and then became initiated into the knowledge of the underworld and if that crash course wasn't enough then the events around the swirling black hole in your soul space should have given you a basic understanding."
Despite Seeing Seth furrow his forehead at her words, Denise made no reaction and continued unperturbed.
"Know with these experiences, you know about but the world of the living and the underworld, but then now it is time to introduce you to hell."
"Hell, isn't hell the underworld," Seth asked.
"No, they are very separate places."
Hearing Denises answer, Seth's eyebrow furrowed but just before he could reach into the back of his brain and extract all the knowledge that the past death primordial fiends had acquired about hell, Denise's shout of "Don't" hit his ear and he gave her a questioning look.
"Urghhh, let's take a bit of a detour in this conversation."
"Seth, I know how tempting it must be for you to just reach out to all the information you have lying in the back of your head and then abandon it and become formidable, but right now you have to decide if gaining all that strength is worth you sacrificing the little self-control you have over yourself and then most importantly losing your life and mind as Evary Seth because I assure you the lives that you have lived as Every Seth Is nothing when compared of that of any of your other lives as a primordial fiend."
"You have a point there and seeing as I have already started, I will keep trusting you, but just be aware though that it won't be lasting for long," Seth said and though Denise wanted to speak to him some more about it, she recognized the finality in his tone and so returned to delivering him info about her solution.
"Seth, hell is a world on its own, a place just like the world of the living, but one major difference between it and the world of the living is that is an abode for sinners whom the underworld had judged as unredeemable
