Temporal Pearls

Chapter 202: Carnivalistic Forest

*****

He found his mind depleted but the red river did as he assumed. All the people were pulled out one by one as the liquid wrapped them off.

He stored what was left of it because the burning part of the well had burnt a great portion of it.

Many also have fainted due to heat and lack of oxygen.

"Master Seth!"

Seth turned and met with an Old man, the chief of Vira Sanctuary where he met Zambia and the rest.

"Chief!" He said before he slumped down, "I can sleep since you are here!"

The old man watched the player sleep peacefully and when the sun was rising, he woke up. They exchanged pleasantries before he was given some food to eat and drink.

But when Seth looked at the place where the adult dragon breathed, he was flabbergasted. Half a kilometre radius was scorched down and there was a huge hole still red hot, exactly where he left that little monster. Cracks spread all the way from there in all directions and they were still red hot.

"Baby Dragon, Young Dragon, Young Adult Dragon and this is the work of Adult Dragon!" The old chief explained. Seth took a deep sigh in anxiety.

"Was it chasing you?" He was asked

"No. It attacks a ball of fur something!" Seth said.

"Damn. That Gawee Monster was evolving, that's why the dragon was here!" An old lady said, that scared the people more than the dragon fire on the ground.

"Are you sure grandma?" A young man with a crossbow asked.

"Yes. I sensed it, the monster's energy was changing faster than normal before it disappeared, thankfully the dragon was here to destroy it!"

Gawee Monsters can gang up on a wounded Baby dragon and even get to kill it, but Gawee Beast was clearly as strong as baby dragons; some were even stronger.

Another thing was Gawee Beast can't be killed by anything but things similar or as powerful as dragon breath.

They also have powerful instincts that made them avoid any powerful dragon and they were as smart as foxes or even more.

They can lurk in a Sanctuary and terrorize them. If they become bold they can form a group and track and follow baby dragons for days or months till they found a chance to strike. They are so cunning that people prepare to face dragons and died faster than the beast.

Seth was surprised by the information, what if the dragons knew he made that? What would they do?

"So, what brought you here deep into the Gawee!"

"Ahh, I was looking for you!"

"Us?" The chief asked with raised eyebrows. Seth nodded and he came clean.

"I'm doing a class quest. And to fulfil it I need to turn my Fake Village into a Real Village. To do that was to bring people inside."

The NPCs were a bit surprised before the crossbowman asked, "Are you a temporal warrior?"

Seth shook his head.

"To be a chief, you need to be a temporal warrior. The dangers of this place can only be handled by them!" The man added.

But the old man was interested and he asked, "Class Quest? What category?"

The one day he spent with them walking was recorded in the second part of the quest.

~Lead 10 people toward positive events for their benefit for a period of a week!

[2>3/7]*

But he has 245 people with him. "I should be given more achievements!" Seth grumbled but became silent as he saw the old lady looking at him strangely.

Sunset and night came, and Seth couldn't find how far he was but the old woman said. "We are moving faster than normal. I can sense the breeze of nature from here."

"Normally, how long will it take us?" Seth asked

"Two to three weeks!" She said casually. Seth didn't help but look at the moon and then at his legs. He activated Aura Sight and noticed there was a very thin halo from him that spread to everyone following him.

"Usually, the old chief might need to rest but he was keeping up with your halo!" She added.

~Lead 10 people toward positive events for their benefit for a period of a week!

[3>4/7]

And quest progression has increased by 35% now. Seth nodded and he even had an idea to slow down but he felt that he shall not do that. So he picked up speed.

Before sunrise, they were seeing the trees. They sway in the wind as they welcome Seth. He always felt that was the case.

They reached the first tree when the first sunlight peeked. The old chief turned off his ability and the people regained their senses.

"I believe Master Seth's words. So I will join him in his village!" The old chief said and entered the forest.

"We can certainly enter." A boy asked.

"Apparently yes!" The old chief said.

"You should have consoled us? But you just dragged us here." an elder wasn't pleased.

"I'm sorry. But the dragon will surely come to check if that thing is truly dead!" The old chief said.

"He was on his way," the old lady said to the people, "I felt it, if we didn't leave as we do he would have tracked us!"
