Chapter 275: Battle Recap

Rank 3 baby dragons are preparing for their adventure by learning all about the world and how to activate their Voice.

Rank 4 baby dragons are stronger and smarter. They are just moments away from freedom.

Rank 5 baby dragons are sent to Gawee to hunt for the activation of their voice.

However, the Dragon's power is doubled in Dragon Burtali. Facing Rank 4 is like facing Rank 5.

Seth hid on a tree inside his glass dome, screaming his heart out.

Due to Lava Scripture in his heart, the burning pain of defeating dragons intensified.

The pain stopped after 30 seconds and he panted before he sat down. He has dispatched the hybrid dragon after getting his aura.

Seth pulled out his Serial Quest and checked.

[Serial Quest]

~Defeat 100 powerful individuals alone with no help

~Caunter: 140/100

[Reward]

~Enhanced Battle Perception

___

[Congratulation]

[You have gained Battle Perception]

[Preeminence Gaze has reached (F)Rank]

____

Seth has defeated 17 dragons. Four of them are Rank 4, each yielding 8 points. 12 of them are Rank 3 and each yield 5 points. Then a hybrid gave him 10 points. All of them yielded 102 points.

With battle perception, Seth was already seeing his shortcomings and things he needed to improve. Things like his timing of defence and attack were bad.

[Existence Might]

Effect 1: Enhance Battle Perception

Effect 2:

[Note: Digest the Phantom Battle Experience to unlock more battle potential]

______

Each defeat made him level up. That means the serial quest and this one were linked.

[Couronne]

[A head wrapper that aids in optimal utilization of all skills, especially related to Arf Book.]

This description was on point, with optimal utilization of skill.

Seth has been thrashed at first but the moment he employed Couronne, it was like he was the driver and had control of all his wheels.

This skill stood as the sole reason he was able to dominate the fight. Couronne didn't just split his mind to multitask but it provided him with clear focus of everything he landed his eyes on. Making appropriate decisions.

While invoking any skill with it, he doesn't need to focus. With mental cues, everything will act smoothly.

[Three Fold World Fence]

[A defensive fence made of three distinct strings. The first Fold String is the string of Illusory attacks and defence. The second Fold String is the string of corporal attacks and defence. The third Fold String is the string of myriad Attacks and defences.]

Despite the convoluted explanation, Seth found out that only the Third Fold String can attack and defend, the others are sensory.

In that fight, the fence created a strong barrier around Seth that can shrink and expand depending on the situation.

To truly grasp its ability, Seth has to know how to understand the feedback of the sensory strings and then actively manipulate the third string.

However, despite his failure in that regard, the passive action of the third string was able to protect him several times in the fight.

The shield was the last line of defence before his shifting armour. And it deflects attacks with ease.

[Myriad Wheel Shield]

[A multi-facet, defensive shield that can adapt to most attacks given enough time]

The shield seemed to just paste itself on his attire and adopt his forcefield and deflect attack using it.

Well, that didn't happen a lot since he always avoided direct attacks that could reach him.

The most significant thing was that all these skills he used in the last fight were not fully active. The Arf book was closed the whole time. It was a phantom application that utilized less energy.

"My battle style is never about physical prowess and firepower. It's about crowd control and manipulation of situations. Using enemies' power against themselves!"

Seth surmised.

He was about to check the description of the other skills when he sensed a presence closing in. His Aura sight swept the direction and he noticed someone flying toward him.

She reached and stood above his glass dome. Her eyes gazed directly at him.

Dream Fortune smiled and said, "That was quite a display of force."

Seth felt annoyed seeing her but controlled his face and nodded with a smile without saying anything.

"When are you leaving for the rendezvous point!?" She asked.

Seth thought for a moment before he said, "In 5 to 8 days I will leave Dragon Burtali. And in 2 weeks afterwards, I may reach there!"

"Okay," She said before she looked around. "Be careful, the tribesmen can summon and even compel adult dragons the deeper you go inside!"

Seth acknowledged her warning before she flew away.

He watched her receding figure until she disappeared. He wondered if she really left or hid to watch him.

Nevertheless, he didn't care, he looked down and thought about how to finish his ordeal here and leave fast.

There was a positive outcome when he made every organ in his body burn for each dragon he defeated. They serve as a baptism for curse resistance.

Another thing was, that his Battle Might is Grade 1 now, he wanted to raise it to at least to Grade 2 or 3.

He also wanted to amass as many different dragon aura, scales, blood and special parts as he could.

The last thing to do was to reach the stele and see what would happen.

Seth readies himself as he watched the dragons below him. They have the body he wanted for experiments and that was hooves.
