Temporal Pearls

Chapter 186: Finally, Some Peace!

And that realisation made his very being quivered and shook. His spirit cracked as his whole mind which always seemed to have no limit and was very powerful filled to its entirety with dread and then shattered. And his body began breaking apart.

[First Might Activated]

This held him in place but his mind can't take it and it spilt to his spirit body due to First Might influence.

The spirit too can't handle the enormous strain of the chaos, it too cracked but held on for a moment.

Seth's body has become eerie pale, unlike the moon pale, more like a ghost, and then his body has already begun to crack down due to the breaking of the spirit.

[First Might Activated]

This time the influence was on something else. And a worm drilled out from his hand and expanded larger than him.

The large worm opened its round mouth and swallowed Seth whole from his head. It was invisible for that he appeared to be disappearing into nothingness. But that was when the worm began to be tainted with some strange colours.

By the time Seth was swallowed completely he was pooped out from the rear.

The worm has now become large about 10 meters long and 4 meters wide due to it saving Seth's life from broken death by sucking his despair.

And it was no longer invisible; what it just absorbed was greater than its invisibility but rather it was churning with a multitude of colours and vibrations.

Automatically, its cylindrical body absorbed the surrounding crystals and other moon energy left over and solidified its body before it shrunk to normal size and drilled back into Seth's body through his right hand.

Seth, on the other hand, eyes were blank as he stared at the crystal ground below him as he was laid flat on his stomach. One after the other his items came back as a wisp of white light and then solidified from being erased by the moon.

Little Cub came back with a snow-white coat. She immediately licked his face. Finding him not responding, she dragged the glass shield and covered him with it, thinking that it would help wake him up but he didn't wake up.

It was not that he didn't, it was that he was still recovering from the experience.

Silently, in that dead night, the moon dimmed and the surroundings became normal. The world became silent and peaceful.

Five seconds later, strange dots of light began to float out of the crystal ground. Those that touched Seth's body began to heal him.

His hand regrow and his mind and spirit soothed then his mind healed. He can still rudimentary remember what happened but it did not traumatize him. That much!

It was as if he watched a terrifying movie.

He sighed and then looked at his left hand. On the back of his palm, there was a large marking denoting a large circular bead, 2cm wide, encased in a circle that was supported by a pillar that extended toward and end at his bicep. That was the edge, where his hand vanished.

Seth stood and found his body stronger than before. But he had no time to check his status as the surroundings were glowing up with crystals.

Instinctively, he felt the need to gather the crystals. Also, the floating dots of light around. He touched one and he felt his senses heightened.

[+1 Strength]

Dragon Roar!

Seth blanked out but Little cub's brain almost exploded and her bones shattered.

[Roan Prada Child in mortal danger]

The womb flashed and the cub disappeared inside.

[Pulse Energy Required for healing]

See the grabbed the womb and allowed it to do its things.

ROAR!

ROAR!

ROAR!

ROAR!

Multiple roars appeared at the same time. Even though Seth was 25m underground he should have been blasted by the shockwave. And the only reason he was safe and the little one wasn't was that he had a Halo.

Seth moved to a corner as he saw the ground cracking and shattering with more roars. Crystallization that deep was minute so Seth cracked them off and stored them.

He should be terrified but he wasn't facing something worth it. So, he just stayed there hoping they would go away. But then a flash of red and yellow light engulfed the sky.

The dragons were fighting.

"I pray to almighty God to survive this encounter!" Seth was too tired to have any wish other than to be alive. He barely survived the moon and now dragons, adult dragons. It's like good luck after bad luck.

He sighed, and then looked at the large blob of red liquid and his shield that followed him. He stored the shield. He was not interested in what it can do apart from engagement, for now.

Then the liquid, he transmuted it into foam and wrapped it around him and then condensed. That was to reduce the sound and shockwaves.

However, whenever a dragon roared the protection was useless. One specific roar made his halo ripple and almost break. If it breaks, he knew he would be dead.

In a span of a few minutes, the temperature dropped to almost zero (°C) and he shivered due to the cold, then it became so damn hot that he had to interfere.

"Temra Aspecto!" he forcefully reduced the temperature around him because his Heat Vision showed that he would be burnt to a crisp.

Seth coughed blood as the air became poisoned, then he felt his head twisted as if he was on drugs, then the ground became weightless and all the rocks floated and disintegrated into particles.

All that, his mind was calm, in fact, he wanted all this chaos to happen even though he was afraid to die.

The reason was that it took away his thought from the surfacing Existential Crisis he had gone through.

And so he relished it!
