Chapter 979 Aftereffects of using the seed of creation
If there was one person that was the happiest with the change in Sebastian's body, it had to be Beniogre.
She did not understand how Sebastian grew so much, neither did Sebastian say as the secret of the seed of creation was strictly between himself and Max, however, Beniogre did not care.
For her, the very fact that Sebastian could actually reach her chin and the fact that she did not have to squat to kiss him but only gently lean in, were already enough.
To add cherry on top, his manhood was two inches longer now and he could last a full fifteen seconds versus his usual two which was incomparably better than his previous performances, so much so that Beniogre began to actually cry during intercourse from how happy she felt.
Not only did Sebastian have a bigger dinger but also a longer finger which coupled with his unmatched dexterity was something that sent Beniogre to high heavens as the love filled sessions between the duo reached a fever high and to a point where Beniogre was actually knocked up pregnant by Sebastian who was elated at the very thought of becoming a father.
On the surface, everything seemed to be as good as it could be, however, the withdrawal symptoms he felt from not being in contact with the seed of creation were secretly a big issue.
Although he only used it once, there was not a single night since he used it where Sebastian did not wake up having nightmares about how he would never come close to feeling like a true god who could create anything at will ever again. The seed of creation offered one unimaginable power, the power to manifest anything they wanted to reality and the feeling of wielding such power was so addictive that Sebastian could just not shake it off no matter how much he tried to.
Whenever he was left to his own thoughts, he would think about ways to steal the seed from Max or brute force his way into the royal treasury which were not thoughts that he morally wished to entertain.
He also thought about ways to beg Max to let him use it just once more as every passing day his peril only got worse and worse.
Thankfully he had great self control and he understood that the addiction he felt was evil, as he tried to make an active effort to fight it off, however, if it were a weaker man instead of him, Sebastian had no doubt in his mind that he/she would have crumbled to the pressure by now.
The seed of creation was the type of treasure that could create rift between uncle and nephew should Max ever let Jake or Kartikeya play with it, as Sebastian now understood that if Max did so, and the children fell to the temptation of the power it offered, then according to his hypothesis the kids would not hesitate to even assassinate their uncle for the sake of the treasure.
Warning Max to never let anyone come into contact with the seed through multiple letters, Sebastian ensured that his message was delivered loud and clear as he did not wish for anyone else to make the same mistake that he did and use the power of the seed to complete some personal ambition.
Although the power it offered was great, the backlash was most definitely not worth it if one did not have the mental fortitude to handle it.

( Meanwhile Max ) Initially, Max hoped to master the seed of creation before the seed of destruction as it seemed like the less dangerous seed of the two.
However, after watching Sebastian Max realised that the seed of creation was like the most sweet and addictive poison which was so delicious that even though one understood that it killed them, they could not stop themselves from drinking it again and again.
Comparatively, the seed of destruction was a bitter pill that left a bad taste in one's mouth, but after comparing Odin's testimony to that of Sebastian, Max felt like controlling the seed of destruction would prove to be a tad easier than trying to control the seed of creation.
Before he took it into his own hands, Max needed someone that he could trust to understand the power and the backlash of the seed for him and with Sebastian outright refusing to help, Max decided to turn to the only other friend that he could trust as he called for Severus.
Max's bond with Severus was comical to say the least.
The two of them started as mentor and mentee as Severus was tasked with keeping an eye on him and preventing him from going astray.
Once he reached tier3, that relationship changed from a mentor mentee to one of friends as they drank together and shared the battlefield together.
That relationship once again took a turn when he became a Lord and Severus became a minister under him as although they were friends they became Lord and servant as Max took a higher post than him.
Finally, as Max became the Supreme Lord and the Vampire King, Severus took his spot as the kingmaker as he supported Max to reach his true potential, restoring their relationship to one of friends again.
Till this day, it was only Severus and Sebastian that Max trusted the most and now that he faced a difficulty he was still the one he prefered to go to.
Severus also gladly agreed as not only did he trust Max blindly but he was also thankful to him for all the help and support that he provided to the Saint Maximus clan in making them the number one ranked clan within vampire society.
