Samuel had noticed something, outside of his first couple of interactions, he had stopped using honorifics or maintaining any distance as was custom for master and disciple. He had been so focused on making the perfect master-disciple relationship that it had stopped becoming a master-disciple relationship.

He may be a babe at matters of the heart but he believed that Elizabeth held him to the standards of a lover more than that of a master. Everything in that reference book had clouded his vision and both of them had crossed a line. Now the question remains of whether he should push it back or let things progress. As it stood, Elizabeth wanted a lot more from him than just strength. As a cauldron who was stuck with him, some extra benefits should be allowed. But to the extent that it no longer stays as a teacher and student?

His focus shifted to Eishath who still standing there awaiting an answer. Most of her attention was decidedly on the point where he and Elizabeth were connected. That could be arranged later, she had asked a question and she deserved an answer.

"No. Our relationship is decidedly not like the average master and disciple. Even if we consider cauldrons. This master-I has broken boundaries and pushed beyond what was the norm. My interactions with other disciples were proof of this. I was so invested in her that I had forgotten some of the basic rules necessary to become strong in the cultivation world."

Eishath's focus shifted back to his eyes as she listened to his words. Her expression remained passive as she heard his words. Her head tilted her head as she heard his words.

"Will this master continue on his path?"

"Yes." His answer was firm. Elizabeth was already stuck with him, and he was the one that allowed the line to be broken. He was not going to walk back and try to re-establish a relationship well past its infancy. That was not his way, he dug the hole, and the only option he saw going deeper. If nothing else, the fact that two breakthroughs came from such an unusual pairing was a strong enough reason.

"This disciple sees..." The rest of the statement was left unsaid but Samuel knew what she wanted to say.

"This master-I wants you to treat me the same. I believe that was what Elizabeth wanted to point out before that mental barrier hit her. I have started on this journey and I believe I must see it through. And I shall not limit this to only my first disciple just because of my fumble. Your status shall be the same."

Eishath's eyes widened at his frank admission. After all, what he had said was so outside of the norm that it almost made her stumble. Normally, she would be threatened or demeaned to hide the embarrassment, or maybe even killed off. The last one she knew would not happen and be the whole reason she even brought it up. She expected that this would create some sort of rift between them, something she could weasel deeper. She expected to have acted demur as if she had realized done something wrong, grovel, and become more palatable to the master.

Instead, she got attacked. 'I realize that I operate in a way that allows my disciples to take advantage of me and you can do it too.'

"Can this disciple do so...? Even when her abilities can be detrimental to the esteemed master?"

Eishath could not help herself. This was too different from her expectations. Greed and self-interest were the foundation of all the realms. That was the basis through which she worked with. Even at the beginning, she could reason why he might want her. With the current situation, there was absolutely none as to why she would be given the same benefits as her dumb elder sister, it simply did not make sense in her head.

Her master gave her a chuckle, one that threatened to bring out her inner demon. Because that chuckle was one of acceptance, something she relished. To understand her nature and still proceed to give...

She licked her lips out of ravenous hunger. A truth about her was that she was never full, the closest she had gotten was when she was being fed by this master. It was an intoxicating feeling and one that her whole species prized above all else. It was the reason that she so readily jumped onto his ship.

Her master noticed her small lapse in control and the only responded with a small shake of his head followed by a genial smile.

"I am going to assume that you, Eishath, are hungry."

As he said so he took his thumb and gently pushed it into her mouth before carefully lifting her head off his digit. Elizabeth still kept sucking on his thumb like no one's business. Samuel channeled a bit of his essence through his thumb using the 'World Seed' to keep it flowing into her.

Before he could even settle her head on a pillow he felt something soft and wet engulfing his manhood once more. The overwhelming desire to ravage every female in the vicinity was back once more but he had a handle on it and so proceeded to kick it to the back of his mind to study later. Right now he was going learn to meditate with it still in effect and two people leeching off him. The rest he was going to deal with as they came up.
