Arwen listened to his words and she could already imagine how hard it would be to accomplish what he wanted to do.

"I can help you... However... You have to promise me one thing."

Seth didn't like to make empty promises and Arwen knew about that. But Seth was able to see that she would only help him out, if he accepted to make a promise.

"Alright."

"Good. After saving her, you have to leave that place the fastest you can and if anything, end up happening with me, you have to promise me that you will not return, actually you can't even look back to see what is happening."

"But..."

"No. I won't give up that condition. If you don't accept it, I won't lend you my strength to save her."

Seth felt the conviction behind her voice and could only sigh in resignation.

"Sigh... I promise you."

"Very good. If something unpredictable and unexpected end up happening, I leave Rina in your care."

"Wait... Why are you sounding like that is going to be the end? Come on, nothing is going to happen... I'll give my everything into getting stronger until that day arrives, that's why you should not be talking like that."

"I hope so..."

Knock! Knock! Knock!

Suddenly Seth and Arwen heard someone knocking on the door. Seth looked towards her, trying to see if it was okay for him to open and see who it was.

Arwen seemed unperturbed. She wouldn't mind people wildly guessing her relationship with Seth as long as they didn't discover it.

Seth approached the door and opened it, just to see the figure of Rina waiting outside. Elyra was a bit farther, talking with Theod and sending away the elves that were still curious about what have happened.

"Rina? Please come in."

"Ahn... Mom said it would be improper to enter a man's room." While talking about what her mom had taught him, she saw her mom inside Seth's guest house.

"Eh?! Mom?"

"Come on, don't keep standing there like that." Seth held her hand and pulled her inside.

Rina was dragged inside while feeling confused. What was her mom doing inside Seth's room? She was doing the contrary of what she told her.

"What are you doing here mom?"

"Ahn... I was discussing some things with Seth, but we just ended that discussion. It's time for me to go and see how things are going on the city. Actually, what are you doing here too?"

"Eh? Ahn... Well, I didn't have anything to do, so I thought of coming here and see if Seth wanted to do anything."

Seth watched how mother and daughter were trying to hide the truth from one another, and couldn't help but laugh.

"Ahahaha..."

"Why are you laughing?" Rina asked confused.

"Rina, aren't you feeling uncomfortable wearing that mask everywhere you go? You can take it off if you want."

"You're right. This is indeed uncomfortable." Rina took her mask off, revealing her otherworldly features in front of Seth and Arwen.

The Elf Queen didn't even have time to stop her from doing it. She looked towards Seth, already expecting that he would fall into a trance and be mesmerized by her daughter's beauty. However, she got shocked after realizing he didn't show any major reactions, only minor signs of appreciation.

"You... You're able to keep calm after seeing her face? And you Rina... Why are you so carelessly taking off your mask like that?"

"Ahaha... You don't need to be like that Arwen. Actually, I have something to ask you, before you leave to the city."

"What is it?"

"I'm planning to go back to the Blazing Phoenix Sect for some time and I would like to bring Rina along with me."

"!!!" Rina got excited after hearing it. If her mother allowed, she would be able to travel for the first time. However, she knew that the chances of her mother permitting it, was nearly null.

"The Human Territory? I can't let her go to such a distant place..."

"Think about it, you will need to constantly watch over everything that is going to happen inside the Ereinrith city and you won't have time to stay with Rina. She won't be able to stay inside the castle, since there isn't a castle any longer and I bet that there isn't a single person that you are able to entrust her safety to, right now."

"Even so... The Human Territory is too dangerous."

"I'll be by her side. Even though I'm not one of the strongest human powerhouses, but outside of the Higher Grounds, no one will be able to touch even a single strand of her hair while I'm there."

"Come on mother... Please. You said you would let me visit anywhere I wanted..." Rina started to plead too.

Arwen seemed to be moved for a bit, but she resumed denying it, right after.

"No... It's not so simple..."

"Sigh... Let me be a good stepfather for Rina at least once." Seth suddenly said.

"!!!"

Rina looked a bit confused and thought she had heard something wrong.

"Stepfather?"

"Better to tell you soon, instead of hiding the truth. I and Arwen are in a relationship."

Boom!

Rina didn't expect it at all. She didn't even know how to react. She turned towards Arwen waiting for her to deny Seth's words, but she didn't.

Arwen felt embarrassed and anxious, and she wanted to leave that situation as fast as she could. She knew that it would be better telling it to her daughter right now, than letting it accumulate for later. However, she was too embarrassed to say anything.

"I'll allow it! But you have to wait an entire week before departing." Arwen said those words while opening the door and fleeing from the scene. Those were the only words she could say, that could have some effects on changing the conversation.

Rina seemed to have turned into a living statue. The word "stepfather" kept ringing inside her head over and over.

Seth looked at her shocked state and decided to bring her back.

"Don't be like that Rina... If you want, I can be something more than a stepfather to you." Seth didn't say what he could be, but the words "something more", brought Rina back. But right after she was sent to another dimension by her wild thoughts.

She started to fantasize about many things Seth could be inside her head. But she was a pure maiden, so nothing she thought of, could bypass the level of what she had seen Seth and Caizhi doing.

Even so, she blushed entirely and like her mother, she left running, disappearing from Seth's guest house.

"Ahahaha! Funny."

"Like I said. You are an enemy to womankind. A pervert that should have been smitten by a heavenly might already!" Lexi's voice resounded inside his head.

"If I were to die like that, you would die alongside me..."

"Of course not! Only you should be punished and not me!"

Human Territory, Blazing Phoenix Sect.

Huo Shihong was working, analyzing many documents and deciding the next step the Blazing Phoenix Sect would make, when suddenly he heard someone knocking on the door of his office.

"Sect Master, I brought some urgent news that you should hear."

Huo Shihong said: "Come in Third Elder."

This elder was promoted recently and was still learning how to handle the information properly, since he was in charge of everything related to their network, inside and outside the Blazing Phoenix Country.

The elder quickly entered and he seemed anxious. His face was a bit pale, but he started to report the information he just received.

"Sect Master, the person in charge of sending us the information around the Red Mountain city, just sent us the news that a group of practitioners suddenly invaded that city, and they are currently in a bad spot. They requested our help to deal with the enemy."

"An invasion at the Red Mountain city? What happened with the cities of Firestone and Yellow Ash? If they wanted to reach the Red Mountain city, the invaders must first pass through those two cities..."

"I don't know sir. We can't make contact with our informants on those two cities. Just like they had vanished."

"How is it possible? Who did it?" Huo Shihong already had someone in mind, however, he never thought they would dare to do it.

"The informant wasn't able to describe with certainty, but it seems they were using techniques of the Wu Martial Kingdom."

'Wu Martial Kingdom...' Huo Shihong clenched his fist.

"However... However, there were many other individuals our people weren't able to identify. Their techniques didn't seem to be what is taught in the Wu Martial Kingdom and their weapons were all infused with spirits."

"Do you mean..."

"Yeah. We might be suffering from a joint attack... What are we going to do Sect Master?"

Huo Shihong started to remember the words Seth had told him, but he wasn't able to believe it.

"Assign ten elders to join our kingdom forces. Send two battalions together with them to Red Mountain city. We must stop whatever is happening there quickly. There is one more thing... Write a letter to the Wu Martial Kingdom, asking them what are their practitioners doing in our country borders."

"Alright, Sect Master."
