Temporal Pearls

He will use the hooves in his sculpture to see if they can move. If it was a success he would use it to pull his cart.

Seth never forgot that Abuhe statue moved in the past. He believed that he could sculpt statues that could move if he put his mind to it.

The same way he can animate paintings.

Seth pulled out a flank he ransacked from the tribesmen. They used it to suppress his abilities and tools, especially the painting.

Well, that's what they think but Seth was the one refusing to use it.

The flank has no power against the canvas but they didn't know that, as such he was going to use it when they least expected.

Seth carefully, used Organized Painting and used his aura and infused it until it was saturated.

He then pulled out Vera's scale and transferred Dragon Roar into it and then fused it into the painting.

Seth didn't stop at that, he carefully placed Temra scales on the painting. He also fused a lot of Temra aura into the scales.

From within the dragon parts he harvested, Seth used some special scales and claws in the Art Painting procedure.

Using his knowledge from creating Red Signature Book skills, he pulled the scale's aura and other dragon parts used in the art and moulded them to form a special form and he fused it back.

Seth smiled before he carefully folded the canvas. He painted the outside with red and attached a clip made of empyrean steel to it. Then made it float on its own.

Seth quickly went through the last skills description before he began the hunt.

"Wow. So, this is royalty. No wonder it was called Lord Cushion. Not Lord's Cushion."

The cushion itself is an honoured one.

Seth enjoyed the sense of accomplishment before he focused on the task at hand.

The dragons in this place are a hybrid of horses and dragons. They don't seem to have normal wings but upon closer look, one may spot the wing representative.

There were additional scales on the horses' thighs and chests, they flexed and shimmered as the dragon horses moved.

Using Identification and other relevant skills, Seth inferred that as the horse runs, reaching a certain speed, the special scales will somewhat rearrange and float, then become supporting wings and enable flight.

Red Signature Book in his cloak, his three Skill in their illusory form. The strings were completely invisible. The whip was like a small appendage on his left shoulder. The shield has hugged Seth's shifting armour. The Couronne rested on his ears, wrapping around his head.

The glass dome shrunk and the heat of the sun and the dragon horse that spouted flame from their mouth reached him.

'They are less intelligent than the other dragons,' Seth surmised.

The moment his appearance was shown, they all looked up at him. The alpha among them neighed and they all turned their aggression on him.

Preeminence Gaze

Confusionist

Intimidation

Domination

Existence Might

Under Existence Might was Grade 1 Battle Might and under it Enhanced Battle Perception.

Battle Might increased his Exertion Points to 100,000 points.

Under Preeminence Gaze was Shadow Glare which allowed him to glare back gazes he couldn't see or know existed.

Last but not least, Seth activated Aura from a Grade 4 attribute. But this aura served to fuel the above skills rather than come out of his body.

The dragon horses galloped very fast, Seth became focused as he reiterated his Combat rules, "Rule 1: Avoid close combat!"

The horse alpha was already close and it jumped high to meet him, Pharaoh's Whip was already on the move to lash at it.

Suddenly, the horse snorted and the snort created a repellent force toward the whip.

Immediately, Seth felt an information reached him from the Red Signature Book, that the whip had vanished for 10 seconds.

Seth immediately understands these dragons are immune to riding as they have developed a skill to repel whip, rope and related instruments.

The next moment, the horse neighed again, and this time a force appeared, Seth had confidence he could resist it but the next moment, the whole tree he was on was crushed under the mighty pressure.

For the first, Myriad Wheel Shield manifested and appeared above him which gave him a level of immunity against the brunt of the attack.

"This isn't a normal attack!" Seth exclaimed as he saw him on even ground with the rest of the herd. The horses were already galloping toward him.

Seth focused on Three Fold World Fence, feeling the First and Second Fold strings, the information was that the weight of the whole herd was used to make the enemy accessible.

Secondly, the ground tremor and air motion will cause distraction and siphon energy from the enemy.

The Alpha horse will remain above ground to prevent the enemy from flying.

'This is ingenious. They are very territorial and very smart!' Seth commented.

He inferred that even a more powerful enemy than him would be dragged down to the ground.

The tremor on the ground was similar to the Gawee Movement sound he recorded in Vera Scale and the motion was also Gawee Wind which meant the more powerful you are the more you are affected and weakened.

The good thing was Seth was close to being immune to those things.

Rudimentarily, Seth used the information from the First Fold String and Second Fold String to direct a relevant action.

Third Fold String was the only true attacking and defending string that acted. It wrapped around his waist and pushed him up.

Suspended on air, the strings circled him from top to below.

The tremor of the dragon horses vanished, also, the strings vibrated which disrupted the wind motion that should have affected him.

Seth was no longer feeling the attacks.

After that, the string expanded for 2 meters around him, slamming on the foremost horse.

The horse snorted just like the alpha, but this time, Seth vanished from his position and slammed at a distant tree, seven meters away.

But the Three Fold World Fence was still attached to him and gave him bouncing protection from impact.

"Good!" Seth praised the Fence before his gaze focused on the horses.

Preeminence Gaze. It was a passive skill before but now he has made it active. The horses became frantic and their aggression increased. Confusionist skill was then actively deployed.

Nothing seemed to happen until they reached him and rammed the trees around him while others passed confused.

And as they circled back to attack him, they nighed and attacked each other.

A more stronger snort appeared and they all woke up and glared at him. Their rage and pressure amplified. Under the guidance of the alpha, they neighed to attack.

Intimidation and Domination then erupt from Seth's body, he also tried rudimentarily pushing them into his Preeminence Gaze and Shadow Glare.

The whole forest paused.

To prolong the effect, Seth pushed his Existence Might to erupt.

The silence deepened and Seth String Fence bounced forward and he reached the closest horse.

His hand stretched to touch its face.

Bang!

The alpha crashed on him. Seth bounced back but he stabilized, however with no respite, the horse was upon him again.

Even with Preeminence Gaze solely on the alpha, he wasn't deterred in the least.

More than that, there was a fire in his eyes and sparks under his hooves. Existence Might Perception told Seth, the horse was equal to him.

That reduced the skill effect on him.

The whip returned at that juncture and Seth knew he couldn't use it against the horse.

For that, chakram floated and attacked the dragon horse alpha wanting to test the snort.

The dragon horse alpha didn't snort it away but rammed through it which to Seth's astonishment, the chakram, now moving ten times faster than before, returned him.

He has lost control over it.

Third Fold String flashed a new string and grabbed the chakram but it wasn't able to hold it and it was torn to pieces.
