Temporal Pearls

Chapter 112: Aura Tome Chapters

There were three moments when Seth had run beyond his power and yet he didn't get exhausted until he reached his destination.

The first time was when he was evolving the Womb and it affected him where his stomach bulges as if he was pregnant. He was in the middle of the forest and he ran all the way to his cottage without his stamina failing him. At that time didn't have Exertion Points that helped him negate his weak stamina status.

Another time that happened was when he was running away from Roana Prada, the running should have exhausted his Exertion Points but it didn't.

"So, I have a surge of Active Aura at that moment. And that also means that turning my Aura Active will be easier!" Seth was glad. "More strength for me!"

Anything that would give him a body boost was alluring to him, no matter how little it was.

After claiming down, he continued reading!

[... Dormant Aura doesn't interact with anything positively or negatively but Active Aura might have diverse effects. However, that depends on the objects or the life forms. In the case of Humans, their Active Aura is relatively harmless to anything, as their True Nature is Neutral or something called Pale.

However, Pale Aura which is a natural active Aura for all humans can be altered by their thoughts and Emotions. Extreme emotions might change the Pale Aura to exhibit behaviour to match the emotions. In Normal human society, Red can be considered to be the colour of danger and thus Aura Seers can see an angry man with a red Aura around them.

However, it's recommended not to give colour to one's Aura Manifestation as that will affect hundreds of future observations. Because other life forms have Red Aura which is their natural manifestation just as Pale was the natural manifestation for humans.]

"Great. Good. This Aura book is amazing!" Seth was full of approval. At first glance, it seemed that the book was an ordinary textbook but in Seth's eyes and his reasoning power he was able to understand the underlay information.

As Seth leaned back reading more of Page 3 his mind was already thinking deeply and analyzing it and the more he thought the more he smiled.

Ding!

[You have read Chapter 1 (Aura Introduction)]

[Note: the more you read the more your eyes improve. You have 1 hour every day to keep your eyes active and the book present for more comprehension until you reached another milestone that will unlock other Chapters]

The book then disappeared and Seth's eyes returned to normal. But the difference he felt was clear. His eyes weren't active but he could see a subtle difference between two identical red flowers.

He then closed his eyes and thought of the things he read. "The book is good. No wonder it was written by the sages. Just reading the text I have a subtle understanding of what I was reading. If I'm not mistaken, in chapter one if I'm diligent I can attain three skills."

Seth's genius mind worked overdrive as he made sense of all of it.

[What is Aura] the meaning and the nature of Aura. It also denoted that a single change of one object can lead to a change in Aura no matter how small that change was. Now when Seth looked at an object, he will be able to glimpse at the aspects that influenced the nature of its Aura.

[How Aura Form] this elaborated on how Aura was unique to everyone and everything but it also has a subtle guide on how one can actively manifest his Aura and also hinted how one can train it

[Aura Interaction] this elaborated further on how Aura forms and also its true nature. He knew that there were Dominant Auras and Active Aura that make people have better strength and capability. Another key part was that the True Aura Nature of humans was Pale because they are naturally neutral and innocent without any direction when it comes to the world but change due to other factors.

As he thought of all those things, Seth suddenly has an epiphany and runs out of the Mansion. He removed his clothes and planted his staff on the ground.

~Size Reschedule!

It extended and pulled him fast into the sky until he was about 300m in the sky. Seth's heart beat strong and he was scared, due to the tense situation he just put himself in, his Exertion Points were already being consumed. Seth then shortened the staff and his body fall down fast, dragged by gravity.

His levitation traits weren't effective on this high.

"AHHHHHH!"

Seth screamed his lungs out, he fought the urge to use the staff to save himself but instead of that, he concentrated on his hands while his Aura Sight was active. Yet he didn't see a thing.

The idea was to put himself in an intense situation to make his Aura Active.

"The Body… the Emotions… the Thoughts…the Spirit!"

"The Body… the Emotions… the Thoughts…the Spirit!"

Seth kept trying to remember what needed to be aligned before the manifestation of the Aura. When he was close to the ground Seth extended the staff and made him slow down as it shortened back to normal while also reducing his momentum by the time he was close to the ground, his levitation took over and he went down less drastically and landed safely.

He checked his body but nothing happened. He concentrated more but nothing.

"Ah, shit, maybe the Green is hindering my sight." Seth's eyes have become so good to the point he can ignore the green Aura of the forest to see other Auras

"Aura Tome!". But even with Aura's sight, it did not come out. "Was it in cool down?" Seth wondered. He then went back to the mansion and tried again, but the book still didn't show up.

'It's on cooldown!'

Seth then walked out and tried falling from higher elevations. This training reminded him of the time he was terrorizing his continent in the Hive Mind Game. He had made it iconic to travel with a very large flat and wide stone wherever he went. As he moved hundreds of kilometres off the ground, only a select few could see him but when he descended, then he was able to blanket a small city.

The euphoria of being in the sky held by nothing was amazing and intoxicating. As the Asteroid Online game was more realistic he felt more fear than excitement but it was a good feeling of freedom.

Once Seth's Exertion points are consumed, he can no longer fall from high space or else, his body will be twisted by the wind.

Seth for the first time in a long time felt weakened. He crawled and grabbed his azure attire and came back to his mansion. A wash of fatigue makes him fall asleep right as his eyes close...

[Congratulations]

[You have made your Aura Active several times. Your progress will be displayed]

[Active Aura Progress: 14%]

[Note: Different Activities are needed to achieve fast progress]

"Hoo...ray!" Seth weakly said before his body weakness forced him to sleep. Without exertion, he rests all day.

Sling!

"We are packing," Anna said in a hurry, Seth was surprised by her urgency but without complaint, he helped and they headed to the private jet.

Seeing his sister upset, barely holding herself from throwing things around, Seth understood that something might have happened at home.

An hour later, they reached the airport where a van carried them and seth cabin together with other objects they obtained from Raaz. Reaching home, Seth was surprised to find their estate, in front of their house, their family standing out in the open and their stuff was out.

The family was packing out.

There was a man in a suit throwing commands at the labourers that kept carrying stuff from the house. Neighbourhood residents all came and watched from the sidelines.

"What the fuck happened?" Seth curse.

"Look. Don't agitate yourself, okay? And stay in the car, I can't have you faint on me." Anna said as she stared at him. Seth knew there was nothing he could do to help the situation, so he nodded at her.

She stepped out and met with Adam who began to explain it to her.

Their house was being confiscated because they violated some conditions of staying in the area. And also one of the residents of the house was found to be a drug supplier and he used the house as a place to keep the drugs.

For that reason, the Enoch family was being driven out of the house and the neighbourhood. If they want the house back, they should then take their case to court.

"Court?" Seth muttered to himself with a grimace, "a lost cause!"

Only after these things were happening did he realize the goodness of his family's effort to have a connection with influential people. Without backing, weak families like theirs can be bullied without remorse.

In this world, it's taboo for the weak to be free and even own property.

The sudden rise of the Enoch family was never stable and since day one some powerful people have been eying their property.
