BXBX NOVEL Chapter 279: Jet Dragons
This was possible due to the Red Signature Book.
~At first I thought it was a coincidence but after multiple fights I know it wasn't. These mean one thing, you are tied down with limitations but they aren't. Heavy hitter will come and they will breach you.~
"What do you suggest then?" Seth asked.
~Your tongue held mockery. Haha. Human, we are sublime race for a reason. Why am I saying this? Because we don't want to be freed. It will be a disgrace as a captive to a mere fragile human.
At the same time we felt anger as you defeat more of our kind.~
Seth understood as much. Dragons are prideful individuals.
~As far as I scrutinized the sound coming from your body, Aura and everything about you. It's an absolute law that you will never have bloodline infusion. No amount of blessing will raise your physique to match a normal human. No buff and no magic, only one thing….~
Vera tried to get Seth's attention by refusing to finished her sentence.
"What is the price?" Seth asked with a frown.
~Why aren't you skeptical? Anyway, the price was simple. Free us… free us where no dragon sees and never reveal we are your captive. Lastly, Never actively hunts us. In response, we will stay away from you and never instigate anyone to come after you. In other words we stay out of each other reach~
Seth frowned, he knew this was their ultimate desire but he needed to recheck his Noble Class Quest details, will that impact him.
But then Seth shook his head, as long as he can get a bit stronger body, isn't the sacrifice worth it.
"Your act of persuasion is remarkable. You know me and my weaknesses. You absorbed my 'Word of Value' and 'Charismatic Communication' ability as a lord and used it against me"
Seth commented.
~Deceiving you may be easy but decieving your subconscious mind was tricky. As you may or may not know that your Subconscious is your strongest attribute, it sees and understands things that your conscious self can't grasp and then it turns it into Instinct and intuition. Those skills you created are the result of Subconscious meticulous creativity. I speak no lies Seth.
I hate you in passion but this is the only thing I can offer~
Seth sighed. 'My greatest weakness at the moment wasn't my weak body but the fact that I can't stop myself from trying the possibility of getting a stronger body. Even if I know it was a trap. As along it truly exist I may not stop myself'
Seth knows himself well.
"You narrate many impossibilities but why do you think yours way will work?"
~Check your class and see if you really need us captive or you need only our Aspecto. After that we continue our discussion~
"I see what you do now. Sowing a seed in me. Nevertheless, I will check"
The conversation ceased and he clenched his staff awaiting the arrival of the three dragons.
They all were Stage 5.
Knowing he will be facing a more powerful foe, the Red Signature Book that always hovered within his cloak and in closed form opened.
He was s still going to use the passive skills but with an open book.
'Haha. I'm really strong. I have four stages of power' Seth arrogantly thought.
He can store the book and use the skills but he needs to concentrate and they skill will be very weak.
He can have the book out, but closed and hovering around him. The skill usage was stronger and easy. However, it's better if he holds the book with his hand for more focus.
During the alpha horse battle, he was clutching the book at all times.
But when he opened the book the power will be 70% stronger.
A short whip appeared attached to his left shoulder. Illusory round shield with pie-like segments hugged him. Thin strings surrounded him. Then Couronne around his head.
Finishing that, the dragons were above him.
'Jet dragons'
He has seen their sculptures in Crystal Dragon Court. Just like Vera, the sound dragon, they don't have conventional wings that flaps to fly.
Their wing was made of steel-like scales that can made a single fold, within the fold were three tubes that spouted pressurized air blast. It was the blast that propelled them into flying, it can also be used in defense and offense.
The wing was attached to them by a thin flexible steel-tube.
These dragons were known for speed but also making very loud sound as they moved.
"You mimicked their flying method!"
Seth said to Vera dragon, oblivious that her companions were trash talking her for what she did.
Jet dragon presence was accompanied by heat and violent mist due to the method of their movement.
Seth can only infer that they breathe in air to convert to pressured air for the wings.
Seth's battle rule of avoiding close combat failed miserably but it was not all bad. He really did gain experience.
The Jet dragons battle tactics was overwhelming their enemy with attacks and speed.
Thank goodness they were just Stage 5, and can't make a reasonable combo like the alpha horse.
With Red Stream splashed on the ground, Seth Velocity and Moment Aspecto mapped possible trajectory for him.
With a smile on his face, Seth didn't control the strings or even the whip but focused on his Myriad Wheel Shield. Treating it as an imaginary Ship he rode.
True to his intuition and comprehension, the wheel turned and Seth felt a weird feeling and intuition. Following that, he made the Whip lashed behind him to a tree.
By then, the Jet dragon was above him, their mouth opened and they sent a blast of air toward him. The ground he was shattered by then he was pulled by the whip toward a tree.
Instead of landing on it, he swung fast at it, his weight making the tree bend back and he was propelled back towarf the Jet dragons.
The Myriad Wheel Shield turned again by one segment.
The intuition came and he followed.
Releasing his staff, he grabbed with his right hand First Fold String and his left hand Second Fold String and then closed his eyes.
He could feel the heated mist of the dragons but didn't care. Even if he failed, his defenses can't be breached easily.
Immediately, he felt as if he has transformed into a string.
The Three Fold World Fence strings aren't inherently connected to each other physically but metaphysically. They were strange in many ways and he felt as if they were akin to living things.
The First Fold String involves the spirit and intangible part while the Second Fold String represents the physical body and also the brain and the heart.
Third Fold String was the hand that connected the physical and the spirit of the whole FORM.
Now, with the addition of Myriad Wheel Shield, they gain direction to be more than what they are.
As if connected to a larger boat surfing in an endless wave, toward self discovery and understanding.
'You gotta be kidding me!'
Seth was flabbergasted. He wasn't overwhelmed by the numerous things about the strings but the individuality of them.
All this awareness happened in a single second and he reached the Jet dragons the next moment.
Seth appeared to be rotating, flying through air due to momentum, but the moment they clashed, silver red strings around him flashed toward them.
They maneuver avoiding him, but then the strings vibrate with a frequency that quaked the air.
The dragon almost got disoriented and if they weren't Jet dragons, they would have fall.
However, that waivering was all it took as they flew in separate ways, the next moment they were jerked back violently by the strings.
They were all ensnared, Seth at the middle, but he wasn't dragging them but rather their own opposite forces moving away from each other, was the one.
Seeing that, they turned around, toward him, but as they were coming, the strings around them intesfied.
They opened their mouths to release a blast attack. The string around them loosened but Myriad Wheel Shield flashed and absorbed the attacks.
The strings then became extra-cold and their heat began to be siphoned. The dragons weren't worried, as they flew up extremely fast to the sky.
Reaching 130 meters from the ground, they were all violently jerked back.
They haven't noticed, they were anchored to the ground by the Three Fold old World Fence.
One of them had its wing ripped off due to the violent yank of the strings. Another lost its left leg and the last dragon almost lost its neck.
