Earthling in Uncharted Dimensions

No sound was made and no noise escaped their throats as they stood entirely bewildered at the sight of the three dragons.

And as they witnessed, the fountain was licked dry!

"Wha-?"

The water flowing through the beautifully decorated fountain was not small in quantities. Yet, it dried!

Those who gawked at the scene could only gulp down their saliva in panic while some of them amassed the courage to run inside to inform others of what was happening.

Hudson was blissful upon seeing the Triad household members panicking and displaying fear. Lee Shen evaluated that Hudson's hatred of the Triad family is indeed a serious business.

'Hudson, you once said that a member of the Triad family took something from you before sealing you in the scythe. What was that?'

There was a second of silence before Hudson replied-

[Umm...I need some time to recollect.]

'Okay, but do you remember who took that from you?'

This time, the silence was longer.

[Him!]

Lee Shen raised his eyes and saw a person standing at the top of the luxurious looking set of steps. The old man standing with his eyes fixed on the Draconic Wyverns had certain radiation emitting from him.

[Lord level mastery.]

It did not take more than a second for Hudson to spell out the familiar sensation. It triggered some painful memories and he began to curse the old man with the most profane words ever discovered.

The wrinkles that covered the old man suggested that he is at least 90 or plus. The cane he used to walk was gripped firm and this conveyed that this man is not worth belittling.

Then, the old man lowered his eyes and locked his gaze with Lee Shen.

[Lee, this bastard has some bizarre bloodline ability. It was how he set me up for sacrifice.]

Heeding the advice, Lee broke the gaze and turned around to walk to the beasts.

"Interesting."

The old man mumbled to himself with a faint smirk decorating his face. The middle-aged man who stood next to him only saw the smirk appearing on his face.

When Weily saw Lee Shen walking towards the beasts, he quickly walked towards him and guided Lee to the stairs.

"Brother, this is the eldest son of the patriarch, Exen Triad."

Walking up the stairs, Weily politely gestured at the middle-aged man standing next to the old man while introducing him. Weily also added that he is that man's eldest son.

"Hello, my name is Lee Shen. I am a tamer."

Lee Shen recited the words and the people who had come out to see the spectacle of beasts gasped and murmured.

But their murmuring went silent as soon as the old man looked them over his shoulder.

At the moment, an awkward expression crept up Weily's face as his eyes unknowingly skimmed past the old man's face.

"He-, he is out patriarch, Sai Triad."

When Weily spoke, he was pale from simply glancing past the old man's face. Without saying anything, he took a step back and lowered his head. He did not had the courage to look up.

Exen smiled at Lee and introduced his second and third son.

Meanwhile, the old man was carefully observing the Draconic Wyverns and the Perrafin.

"A triplet. Amazing."

The old man's voice broke the conversation and all were silent. Lee turned around to see the old man leaning on the support of his cane eagerly observing the beasts.

*hiss*

It was Perrafin who displayed the hostility. She hissed at the old man as his stares became slightly intolerable. Also, Zena was more sensitive to stares and glares.

(A.N. I wonder why. She's the only female in the gang.)

Unlike her, the trio was cool with the stares. The penetrative scowl did not bother them in any way and they were placing their torso on the grass on the front yard.

When Zena hissed, the old man diverted his sight and his eyes drew an arc in the air before falling on Lee's face.

"You really are lucky to tame a three dragons."

The old man praised Lee as he turned around.

"They are wyverns."

Lee did not hesitate to correct the old man.

For a second, the atmosphere was silent. There was no motion for a few second and the air was tense. But Exen broke the looming silence.

"Ah, my bad. My eyesight frequently fails to distinguish between two closely related beings."

With that said, the old man asked Sai to take the guest inside.

[I can't find any resemblance from the past.]

Hudson was perplexed upon seeing the entire building remodeled and reconstructed. His preparation of collecting his memories took painstaking effort and yet ended up in vain. And because of that, he continuously mumbled for an extensive period.

The interior decorations were top-notch. The cream coloured walls decorated with blue and silver lines of designs were eye-catching. The furniture seemed new and expensive. And from somewhere, a fragrance attacked Lee Shen.

[Lee, that is not an ordinary scent. It has some kind of relaxing property. It could lower your guard.]

Lee almost had an urge to pull out his sword when he heard those words. But he asked D to help him at the situation and the reply was an avalanche of pain.

'What the hell was that for?'

[The scent is getting stronger. You need an overwhelming sensation to counter it.]

Lee had to agree with D when Ruella figured out the source of the aroma.

[The flowers and vines decorating some of the walls are the reason. According to Ruella, the plants have a psychedelic effect on those without an antidote.]

While Lee was listening to the description, he could feel his senses slowly clouding. At the very moment, D created the antidote using the Workshop and transferred it to the spatial ring.

With a skilful trick, Lee Shen threw the antidote pill inside his mouths and the effect was imminent.

As his eyes burdened by sluggishness was repaired, the vigour in his eyes made Exen and Sai frown.
