"Children" Seth couldn't help but repeat, remembering Irene's words on her marital status.
"How old are they," Seth asked, feeling something was amiss.
"Well at present they are 7 years old" Aimy answered watching Seth's face scrunch up in thought.
"Irene's husband died 50 years ago right?"
"Yes"
"So who is the father of Irene's children," Seth asked.
"Ehhm well, I'll rather not answer that question, It's something only Irene should talk about," Aimy said, looking down.
"Well, at least she knows when to shut her mouth" Seth internally said.
"Fine, so the main point of this story is that you leaked the whereabouts of the soul fruits and now are worried about Irene's reaction." Seth tried to summarize.
"No" Aimy yelled in frustration.
"Irene has two children, both of them twin and doomed to die on their 8 or 9th birthday."
"Both of Iren's children were born with incomplete souls, and Irene in a bid to heal her children decide to come here to Egaroth, wishing to find the soul fruits."
"Before she left, Irene left her children to me, I am their aunt, her sister, and she trusted me with her little treasures."
"Irene might understand me leaving them and coming over here because I thought she was dead, but how do you think she will feel if she knows I easily gave up the location of the one thing that could save her children, worst off if she discovers how easy it was to beat it out of me."
"Irene knows about my habits of toying with men and she lets it slide, but if she knows that I went playing around with something so important, even if she forgives me, she'll never trust me again."
"I'll lose the trust of my one sister and even possibly her children." Aimy sobbed.
"That sounds like a bad thing" Seth casually said, no trace of pity on his face.
"But if you value your sister so much, why did you break so easily, you don't even look to be in bad shape so am going to guess all they did was touch you a little," said Seth.
Hearing Seth's question, Aimy stayed silent for a few minutes, then in an almost whisper spoke,
"Life tracker," Aimy said, a green object that looked like a pearl appearing in her hand, while it doesn't do much, its one function to sense the life force of a person is very valuable."
"Green shows life, red shows death, some days ago it turned red, and that was just a few hours before Zuroc captured me."
"I haven't always had the strongest of wills, and so when the thought that Irene had died entered into my head, it broke my will."
"Perhaps the torture wasn't heavy, but the pain wasn't something I was used to, with Irene always there to cover me, my cultivation journey has been relatively smooth sailing.
Perhaps it was not too heavy a torture, but for me, it felt like hell, and in that moment of desperation I decided to be selfish."
"With a selfish heart, I decided to give up on saving the children whom I had promised to return to, I convinced myself that their situation was too dire and that death was a better alternative for them, for that feeling of relief, I spat out everything I knew."
"With my cooperation, Zuroc became a little more trusting of me and lessened my restraints and I used this opportunity to escape."
"My plan was to escape and hide away, I had no plans of returning home, and it was during this escape of mine that I ran into you guys."
"Well you didn't exactly run into us, seeing as it was Irene that somehow sensed your despair and came running to save you" Seth decided to point out, his words having Irene shrink into herself in shame.
"Did Irene die?" Aimy asked, wanting to end the eerie silence that had descended between them.
"No, seeing as the life tracker is back to green, then I'm guessing what caused it to go red the first time was because of the soul attack she suffered, and now that she's healed, it's back to green," Seth said, his words giving Aimy a bit of understanding
"Will you help me?" Aimy tentatively asked.
"No," Seth said, pushing himself up to his feet.
"No please Seth, you must," Irene said, hugging Seth's feet before he could take a step.
Watching Aimy sobbing and begging him, Seth couldn't help but internally groan.
After hearing her story, Seth had thought over the issue and arrived at the conclusion to give up.
Sure he had already drawn various plans to reach his goal of having a threesome, but all that was secondary to his power and life.
"A boost to his enlightenments sphere was valuable but the healing of his soul triumphed however large fucking Iren and Aimy could make his sphere."
"Hearing Aimy's story, Seth knew that when all this got out, the crisis that will ensue between both women will leave him blue balled, so he might as well forget all about the sex and make finding the soul fruits his priority.
Now looking down at Aimy who was holding his leg, Seth was about to tell her off when he realized he didn't even know what she wanted.
Watching the usually cute, mischievous face covered in tears wasn't exactly right, so he decided to humor her.
"What do you even want me to do," Seth asked.
"Just kill Zuroc," Aimy said, her eyes brightening a little and as quick as she could, she stood her feet.
"I'll also compensate you if you do it," Aimy said, and just when Seth was about to remind her how her body couldn't be used as compensation, she held out a big red scroll to him.
The scroll was thicker than two arms put together and though it seemed to be made out of some thick heavy material, it was actually light and could easily be lifted with a single hand.
Aimy unfurled the scroll and handed it to Seth, who took it and began reading its contents, but there were only three words on it.
"HEAVENLY STORM SECT".
