Temporal Pearls

Chapter 25: Nobility

The room was spacious, at the ctre was a well-carved floating rectangular slab while at the side were other carved rectangular slabs.

On them, the Monsters were placed, and Sarima dragged Seth to one of them and began to explain!

"Crodo are vicious creatures that always come whever the comet strikes. They usually come with a mission to kill or capture someone."

"They are smart ough to avoid any person that is stronger than them, so they usually plan and avoid the person."

"Their actual weight and hardness were very low but they can increase it at will. As you can see they have the features of a dog and a crocodile, but their morphology is tirely differt."

She dissected the Crodo and Seth was amazed. The skin and flesh of Crodo were one and the same and their nature makes them have insane dexterity because they can control muscle/hide seamlessly.

There inside was made of blood vessels and four Bean Shaped organs and a heart. There was no digestive or excretory system. Only the circulatory system.

"Why do we leave heroes outside and bring trash here!" A middle-aged man asked as he came into the room.

"Because I said so... I want his Azure Uniform to be incorporated with this level 4 Crodo!"

Sarima said but seeing the man refused to move she said, "Chief's Order. Should I tell him you refused?"

The man snorted and wt to the floating rectangular slab at the ctre!

"Please remove your uniform." She said.

Seth thought for some time before he removed his jacket. He has already lost something valuable, what more to lose.

The man took the jacket as he grumbled and threw it to the stone.

The stone glowed with runes and the jacket was separated into various things.

"This is its true nature." Sarima explained. The blue jacket was now . Its body was made of a comprehsive and pronounced weaving of special threads and at the edge was embroiled with leather.

It was beautiful!

Floating above it was a blue light which made the jacket blue if fused and other things were floating with it!

A soft Coin-like material!

In the d, Seth was giv another set of clothes to wear and he was asked to watch the First Forge as the new attribute was being integrated into his jacket.

After his first lesson, he left the house and strolled the town. The battle might have occurred but there were no destroyed buildings at all because they had be repaired by Mara. But the faces of people were grave.

What made Seth curious to rise was that there was still a wound on some players and townspeople. But believing he will be scolded, he did not ask them why they did not get treated.

He arrived at the Madam Mud clinic and saw it was crowded with people and her healing wasn't closing the wounds!

Seth sighed! He remembered about the notification that said being killed by 'them' has repercussions. Maybe ev wounds wouldn't heal easily.

Seth doesn't know his assumption was on track. Crodo inflicted wounds that were not easily healed. And players killed by Crodo will have their level halved and all their skills erased for a certain duration!

Two hours later Seth was called into the Manor and he met with the Chief and th he was giv a new armour. Well, it was his uniform that was reforged with part of Level 4 Crodo.

Level Crodo was the one Seth and Female Guards fought while level 4 Crodo was the one the Chief fought.

The Chief gave a little speech about Seth's bravery and his first kill and th he said! "I hereby announce you as the First Noble in this Town!"

The Guards saluted and he was informed to be bestowed a plot of land in the town.

While all that was happing, Sarima and Gideon's faces were contorted with anger. They seem as if they are going to burst.

Gideon was the Male Guard Captain. If it was Gideon only, Seth would think he was vying him but seeing Sarima too. He thought maybe he deserved more than what he was being giv!

It was a limited Ceremonial Evt prepared for Seth and only the people of the Manor knew about Seth's Nobility and th only they brought Seth with gifts.

He expected Sarima to hand him her gift by herself but she didn't but st her child, the one she pushed to the g to give him a book named 'Life forms in Amma!'

*******

As Seth logged out, he found himself dizzy, his breath was ragged and he heard people speaking over his head.

"Thank God, he is awake. Get him... out!" His mother's shaky voice said!

His vision was blurry as he tried to make sse of what was going on. Anna and his mother were trying to stop tears and snorts from coming out.

'This ssation!?' Seth thought! He was ssing something similar to Temporal Pearl.

He oped his eyes wide and looked at the place he was ssing it, alas—he only saw a blur and his consciousness slipped away!
