Ding!
[You have to save Samsi, The Agent Of Light, life and he has gifted you his Yellow Script Shield]
"It was mine from the beginning. But what did he mean by saving his life"
[You have obtained Personal Arm]
[Yellow Script Shield]
[Agents Of light require no Equipment, they use the equipment for learning only and they give that equipment to someone that aided them. The more you use the Shield the stronger his defence will be]

[Hey, Seth, by helping me activate my aura right before I die, that helped me unlock something important. Survive, please and use the shield a lot to empower me. But know that using Escapee will make you lose the shield completely.]

"No time to waste!" Seth said as he stored it away. He ran using Vela Aspecto. "This is luck. This Providence showed that I will need it to shield myself against whatever dragon I\'m facing.
"Haha, so luck can bring danger for a benefit too?" Seth grinned.
Seth was far away and the 8 players were observing the red trying to confirm it was not blood.
"What if they are dead?" Mufasa said, one of the players.
"They aren\'t. Some have broken away from the bind but couldn\'t escape!" Juma said.
Later, the red liquid dissolved. Flowed away before it disappeared.
"5 fucking Kilometres, that\'s how far he is!" Fist said as he watched where Seth had gone.
"Now we can talk. What the fuck did you do, Zero!" Zambia growled but he took a glance at Juma but he found her angry too.
Zero was Juma\'s little brother, that\'s why Zambia wasn\'t harsh on him.
"What the fuck happened. And Zambia, why did you do that?" Rena angrily asked as she came out of the cave.
"That\'s not the question. What happened that made Seth attack us" Ash said.
"Where is he? Why did you let him go?" Another player asked.
"Calmed down, here is what happened!" Zambia explained Seth\'s action and why he came. He did hide that he forcefully extracted information from Seth though.
They talked about it and understand but then they turn to Zero and ask him why he didn\'t reveal himself and did what he did.
"He can hide from dragons and he even found their old home. He also made a dragon avoid him! I know he is a Treasure and Dragon Seeker, so I wanted to know how to pass the Green Grass Dragon blockade"
"Did he?" Juma asked.
"No, he avoided it every time. And, he was able to negate my ability most of the time!"
Zero has a special ability to distort intuition, instinct and paths. So he used Seth to see if they could reach the dragon\'s old nest but Seth avoided that.
The group have been wanting to go there and train

Seth on the other hand, an hour before his luck expired found the dragon. And it wasn\'t even far away from Living Root. Just 4 and a half kilometres in a 200m canyon.
From a distance, one can not see the canyon but when one was about 100m close, the slope and a little cliff can be seen. Seth stood above the cliff and watched the inside.
Red soil was emitting smoke, countless different size rocks ranging from human size to smaller ones, and a pool at the far end. Behind the pool was the creature Seth was looking for.
\'It seems like a fire dragon!\' Seth thought. He was already trembling, and all his instinct was screaming danger. He wanted nothing but to run away from here but he stayed. Now he knew why he was wary when he came out looking for it.
In Mass Hysteria Game, there were some Boss Level people the moment you thought about looking for them, you will incur fear sickness and if your will is not strong you will lose HP. But here it was different, there was no HP but one will feel actual fear as if in the real world.
With Luck\'s value, Seth believed he would have a chance. The sad truth was that he wasn\'t going to employ the previous tactics, he will face this one head-on, as he felt that is the only way to help him push his Stone Will further.
Seth pulled out a paper and read through the plan, he also checked the abilities he might use.
\'I pray that it goes just like the plan!\'
He then stepped forward and jumped in.
[You have Entered Baby Fire Sanctuary]
\'Okay,\'
The pressure of the Gawee became Off and also the air became pristine. It really felt like an actual sanctuary.
\'This dragon is strong enough to make an actual sanctuary!\' Seth concluded.
He glided slowly until he reached the floor and he looked around. He was 200m deep but he felt as if he wasn\'t that deep.
Nonetheless, Seth looked at the dragon coiled behind the pool of water. That was rare. If there was anything Gawee lacked, it was Water. But this dragon was able to harvest that and prevent it from evaporating or leaching.
Seth then read the first protection he should use and he sauntered forward. "Greetings, Mighty Dragon. My name is Seth Enoch!"
Seth introduced himself as he bowed to the red-scaled dragon. Its face was on the other side, but Seth knew this guy was ignoring him.
Seth could have spoken dragon tongue but that will make the dragon too serious. He doesn\'t want that.
"I came here to challenge you. You mighty creatures are the symbol of power and pride. You dominate the three aspects of the world. Earth, Water and above all Sky!" Seth said.
[You have Boldly Challenge a Fire Dragon]
[Pure White Stone Will Evolution Quest In Progress]
The awe of dragons was instilled in everyone, even though Seth was forcing himself to be bold and he already captured two dragons, he really was intimidated every time he met another dragon.
The dragon did not respond at all, nor did it even swing its tail from its coiled position.
"Thank you for your understanding. I will go first!"
Seth staff, shrunken and Seth pulled out Short Sword, and that was when the surrounding temperature began to rise but before anything, Seth pointed his sword toward the red creature and SHOOT.
Before Seth finished calling out the attacks, the dragon unfolded, making Seth more afraid but the blade was already on the way to strike the creature.
Katcha.
Something Seth has never expected to happen. The extended blade shattered.
Ding
[Elevated Strike Short Sword Broken]
[Reverting the Weapon to Staff]
[Recovery of Short Sword Commence]
The sheer pressure of the Red Dragon was strong enough to break the blade. The dragon didn\'t let Seth reel in his shock but jumped toward him, his scale heating up to red and his mouth wide open, aiming to clasp Seth between them.
Right then, Seth perceived the flow of time as slow as his brain can muster but, not in a productive way. He was just overwhelmed with awe and panic and wanted nothing but to fall to his knees and prostrate to the dragon.
More than that, he wanted to ask forgiveness and also asked to be killed in the most horrendous way possible for disrespecting the mighty creature.
Seth wasn\'t afraid of death but rather he loathed himself for his abominable action of gaining the ire of higher life forms.
The awe he felt was several times above the awe he felt from other dragons. Including Floating Feather Dragon, even though that dragon was an Adult and this one was a Baby.
At that moment of slow time movements, Seth remembered what Rena said about dragons. They have five things and if a dragon doesn\'t have them, they are not a true dragon.
The five things were Fire Dragon Breath, Dragon Wings, Dragon Scales, Dragon Might and Dragon Tongue. If they lack one, then they are not real.
True, this dragon Seth was facing has all of them in perfection. So, the effect of the superior dragon on the lower life form was stronger.
Seth\'s thoughts came to an end when the dragon maw came above him and the dragon clasped down.
Seth was glad to be killed by that mighty life form!
