BXBX NOVEL Chapter 145 A Hero
Pushing himself to his feet, Seth could feel a thumping headache and a stinging pain in his eyes and nose, prompting him to touch the affected areas, and when he pulled his hand back he was greeted with the sight of his blood.
"When did this happen," Seth thought, going over the events that happened before he was spat out of the sky, but when his mind went over the memories of him traveling in a dark void inside a path made of white lit up circles, his memory began getting heavy as he arrived at the point where he began hearing murmurings.
Feeling confused, Seth dug further into his mind, trying to remember what had happened, but just as felt like he had touched on to something, he felt the memories slip away.
Something had happened in there, and Seth was bent on finding out, so he dug back into his mind with vigor, and grabbed as hard as he could to the evading memories, planning not to let them slip away this time, but as his mind delved into them, he heard Alexia's voice scream in his mind,
"Seth don't," but it was too late.
Seth remembered looking into the darkness, a voice speaking to him, but before he could understand what the voice was saying, his entire being was hit with a pain that had him falling to his knees and unleashing a silent scream to the sky.
Seth felt like he was being torn apart, this pain didn't come from his body, but from his soul, and about a minute into his agonizing pain, his eyes closed and he lost consciousness.
"Ahhhh" Seth groaned as his eyes flickered open and he pushed himself up to a sitting position, his head stung badly, but luckily the pain seemed to be rapidly dying out, but before Seth could question what had happened, he found himself wrapped in the embrace of beautiful teen.
"Seth are you alright, am sorry that I forgot to warn you earlier" the lovely voice of a sobbing Alexia sounded.
"Alexia, why are you crying," Seth said lightly pushing the woman off him and taking a look at her.
"Well I noticed the signs earlier and could have warned you, but because I hesitated, you got hurt," the woman said, sitting on her knees and looking at Seth with a somehow teary face, she looked just like a little girl that was owning up to a fault of hers.
"Fine stop crying, it's alright, am fine now," Seth said, hugging Alexia so she would calm down and give him some important answers.
"Are you really, okay" the woman, looking up at him with an innocent and worried look.
"Yes Alexia, am fine," Seth said giving her a kiss on her lips, "Now do you know what happened to me earlier?".
"Well am not 100% sure, so why don't you first explain to me what you were doing, before you got hit with such pain," Alexia said, looking at Seth with worry while she rubbed her head on his chest.
"Okay," Seth said and proceeded to explain to her how he had been trying to remember some events but was having difficulty and in the end found himself visited by pain.
"Well, my theory is that your body is somehow not allowing you to remember those memories because your soul is too weak to handle them.
"With how weak my soul is, I wasn't able to stare into that darkness, it's a surprise that you were somehow able to.
Darling what you should do now is wait till you get stronger before you try remembering again okay" Alexia asked suddenly looking at Seth with a narrowed gaze.
"Yes, yes, I'll wait," Seth said when he noticed her unflinching and suspicious gaze.
"Okay," Alexia said, her expression doing an immediate 180 as she flipped and wrapped herself around Seth's back, going back to her usual spot.
"This time you're staying with me," Seth asked with a smile as he stood up, finally having the chance to observe his surroundings.
"Yep," Alexia cutely said," you're all alone, and now I can have you all to myself".
"I thought you said the presence of other women didn't bother you," Seth asked with a raised eyebrow.
"They don't, I just don't want to be a hindrance when you're having fun, I want you to enjoy yourself to the fullest".
"You're not a hindrance Alexia, besides, seeing as you can touch me, you could always join in on the fun".
"Darling stop having ridiculous thoughts, touching you already puts a heavy consumption on my soul energy, not to talk of touching others, now stop thinking about sex and focus on this chaotic forest" Alexia berated, though the fact that she had her hand messing around with Seth's hair didn't help to portray her seriousness.
Seth smiled at Alexia's antics and focused his attention back on the forest, and just like Alexi had said, it was a really chaotic one as Seth could hear an explosion go off some kilometers to his right, and he could see large columns of smoke rise up in the air far off into the distance ahead of him, and the shout od people fighting were quite loud.
This scene was no surprise to Seth as he had already observed this after he regained consciousness, but seeing as there was no one around, he had focused on other more pertinent issues, and now he was done.
"Seems I arrived beside a battlefield or perhaps an ongoing skirmish" Seth guessed, and then looked to his right where he could hear the faint sounds of weapons colliding and attack being thrown not too far away.
"Well we have our target," Seth said and charged to his right, zooming through the forest and heading to the candidates of his chosen interrogation.
Minutes later and Seth happened upon a very interesting scene, a female leaning against a rock for support, her trembling hands holding onto a spear which she pointed at some armored man who was descending from the sky.
The golden light coming off the man's armor drew Seth's gaze for a few seconds before his eyes went back to the more important female, a sense of heroism filling him, after all, he was just about to save a cute rabbit woman that was getting bullied.
