Temporal Pearls

Chapter 344 Shadow Dragon

He was told that Silver Wing Dragons can suppress all kinds of abilities around them and even erase them at will.

Now, Seth was seeing that happened before his eyes. The very powerful domain was being suppressed as the wings spread wide open.

The Silver Wing Dragon then released Dragon Might, and it spread outward, dominating everything around it before it dashed toward Seth.

Seth didn't manage to say 'magnificent' as corals around him grew to mask his presence, and he dashed away from his location, but the dragon changed course and followed him.

Coral Field can mask Seth's presence, but unfortunately, the two monsters he faced here were just abnormal and could easily track him.

Boom!

The dragon rammed into the place, and everything was destroyed; the dragon might still cling to her body, and it dominated everything.

Seth has already used Illusory Steps and left the place. The dragon stood and it gazed swept the place before it located Seth again.

Suddenly, her body blurred as her speed increased, reaching him before he could react. She rammed at him, but at that moment, a pillar of red water sprang up and then twisted, becoming a whirlpool and encasing the dragon.

~Still Water

~Splashing Water

~Barrier Water

The real Seth came out from a wrapped cape, holding Red Diamond Absolution and his staff as he tried to channel its power into the red stream.

The red stream thinned and became more refined and suppressed the dragon more.

However, as Seth had control of the red stream he came to feel like the dragon was just following the flow as if it wasn't even resisting.

The water exploded outward, and the dragon appeared before him, mouth opened and was about to clasp at Seth's face.

Still Water was as the name entailed; the water was not moving and was silent.

Apart from Seth not everyone can notice it.

This skill was the very foundation of the rest of the skills, in it, Seth can imbue and activate the other skills with great skills.

For example, when Seth was facing ME 25 Medos, he made the water still around him, but the moment the Medos stepped on it, it splashed to delay the Medos and also alert Seth.

The same thing happened now; Seth had made the water 'still', and then the moment the dragon rammed at it, the Splashing Water took effect, followed by Barrier Water.

The barrier here should be referred to as a Cage Water as the dragon trapped inside.

At this moment, Seth has some understanding. Barrier Water can take different forms, but most forms were about a dome of water that protects things inside, but it can also be one-sided, allowing entry from other parts.

However, it can also be Cage or Encasing Water, where he can trap his enemies inside.

The reason for taking note of this small detail was that if he wanted to Rank up his mastery of the Red Stream he needed to understand these things.

Red Wing Dragon wasn't playing anymore, and the moment she saw him close by, she snapped with great speed and strength and achieved sonic speed in just very short amounts of time.

Something only experienced fighters can do.

Well, Vela can do it, too, since her abilities were geared toward speed.

Coral Armour was the best armour suited in the Coral Authority Domain.

In this Coral Field, everything within is an ally, and he can hide behind them, but when he uses the Coral Armour, then the effect becomes exaggerated as Seth can now merge with some of the things.

Not to mention, it complemented his authority which allowed him partial control that the Red Signature Book denied him.

Seth stared at the Shadow Dragon, its black ink like blood dripping into Red Growth, and they were growing and hardening more. If not because of Seth, the dragon would have died by it.

Seth ignored the staff attacking the sluggish dragon and stared at the thing before him.

"I see Navy Soldiers never learn!" Seth said gently. His hand caressed the dragon wing which appeared like crow feathers with softness.

With his experience and Gawee Magister Title, together with his Observation and related attributes and skills, he can make the judgement that the wings were meant to conceal sound.

Its crowlike legs have sharp claws that were meant to never touch the ground. It can continually float above a stand even though it needs a stand to do so.

It has no forelimbs, but as he met ME 25 and Sam from House White Marble, who showed him Blessed Markings, he saw that on the shadow dragon chest were markings and with a glance, he knew they were a complex weave of Push and Pull.

But they were higher rank than the one ME 25 has.

Seth caressed it and felt a faint heartbeat and the smooth skin was soothing to touch. "Magnificent" he can't help but say that.

In terms of rigidity, the dragon was weaker than Vela Dragon, but the tensile nature of its body was immaculate.

As long as she avoided sharp and hard objects, then she would be like an infinite softball that could squeeze to a fist size with no problem.

Seth, with all his grade advantage, failed to feel her presence as she merged with his shadow, and the very reason was the Shadow Dragon had absolutely zero combat capability, maybe except dragon breath, which Seth didn't know if it could do.

"Do you have Dragon Breath?" Seth asked her.

She has been staring at him in fear as she knows the extent of what he can do to his enemy.

Seeing her Silence, Seth frowned and said, "Baby dragons know if I ask a question, I have good intentions. Acting tough and arrogant will make me break you and make you speak even against your wish!"

That was a clear threat.

"Yes, but my fire doesn't burn tangible objects or cause destruction, it causes a ripple in the shadows and darkness for me to pass through." A soft feminine voice said.

"But it's very destructive to other shadow creatures in shadow places. I can also use it to combat the aura of the shadows I entered!"

"How is my aura then? Is it destructive?" Seth was curious.

The dragon can enter people's shadows, but shadows aren't safe because every shadow holds the power of the owner.

For example, if she entered a shadow of a powerful Dragon, she would be subjected to Dragons' Pressure and other powers regarding the dragon.

"It's weak."

She said, and Seth raised an eyebrow; he wasn't surprised or angry at that prospect, but was curious.

"But it's different. I have never seen anything like it. It's weak but nurturing and healing to me. I almost believe I was in the wrong place. However, it is dominating and encompassing!"
