I’ve no idea what Seth was actually doing when Abel brought Lilith’s body down from the Arc so it’s entirely possible that she was far too busy with her armies long before then anyway. The anime shows her on the Arc with them but it also shows them growing up on Mars which is equally non-canonical. I could imagine that Seth would have been involved with organizing the fight against the terran while Abel might just have been out there killing people himself because of his hatred so they might not have been close confidants exactly anyway.
why not try otherwise to persuade the Terrans that being a Methuselah is easy and awesome? Why not try to 'seduce them instead of fighting them'
Quite simply because Seth simply isn’t possessed of anything like charisma and has very little skill at public presentation. She just couldn’t carry a cult of personality like Cain or even attempt to persuade people through her own charm like Dietrich or Süleyman. She seems to know it too which ties in with her preference for hiding herself rather than presenting herself as the glorious goddess.
