Temporal Pearls

Chapter 50: [Bonus chapter]Aaron Babadose

Travelling about one hundred meters, mostly crawling through natural tunnels, he arrived at a cave that seemed wide ough to hold two people.

As if being back in heav, the old man smiled as he began to eat some gre-coloured rocks.

"Ah, life is so hard yet so simple here." The old man commted.

Sometime later, he began to speak again, "Hmm, Red Valley, I would never go there without preparation!"

"That man will one day have himself eat. Poor boy, didn't he know Red has always indicated danger wherever one was?"

He has be alone, longer than Seth has be, and the old man has developed the habit of talking to himself. He mostly commted on things that never happed in his vicinity. But since he was ever alone, no one will find that an anomaly.

He was no NPC, but a player just like Seth. If he was in a light, people would notice that his attire was a shade of Light Gold and deep gold at the edges.

The apparel is the same as other players, a light gold jacket with deep gold inlaid at the edges—a t-shirt inside with a design of a gold Dragon on its back and front. Th long pants and boots with the same design.

But what the old man additionally has was a cap akin to a Crown. Though it was made up of the soft material as the clothes, he always kept it in his pocket. But whever he moves a he will put it on.

Time ticked, and he too seemed to be just idling away, waiting for something. But there was nothing to wait for!

"This kid might be miserable, but he has pretty interesting treasures. One day, I'm gonna visit him and see what he is busy charging. The Womb he calls it, right!"

Making that commt, the cave he was in shook. The man smiled and mumbled. "That is my cue to change to another home!"

He didn't seem bothered by the sudd tremor as he packed everything and stuffed them into his invtory. Th he wore his cap and he became very still as if trying to merge with cave walls.

Roar!

A Dragon roar resounded, rattling the walls and making long cracks appear. The grey-haired old man's body trembled by the sound but he held on.

Health: Great > Shock > Great

The game system notified him of his health status. He healed faster than a normal player.

"Hmm, those books on earth said Dragons are intelligt at birth but it turns out they were pretty stupid just like human babies but at least smarter. This idiot will always roar the momt it ssed me." The old man idly commted with a smiled

Th, the cave began shaking continuously as the Dragon was bashing through the rocky wall in an attempt to reach the old man.

The shake of the cave made large rocks fall from the ceiling. Th the Dragon roared again and that rattled the bones of the old man more. This time, the old man did look scared.

The more the Dragon came close, the more formless pressure pressed on the old man.

"Damn, this fissure is not big ough for me to pass!" He said in a panic as he looked at the fissure the size of his hair width. Thankfully, the more the Dragon roared, the bigger it became.

Wh the Dragon was one hundred meters away the fissure was at the width of his smallest finger.

The gold cap on the old man's head glowed with light as it reduced the pressure of the Dragon on the old man, if not, he would have be squashed by the pressure wh the Dragon was just 00 meters away.

Ev with that, the old man was barely breathing, and blood was oozing out of his three orifices, mouth, nose and ears. His bulging eyes were blood red and about to pop out.

The momt the fissure was the size of his smallest finger, he pushed the finger in and cackled a forced laugh, th his body vibrated in a unique frequcy and became hazy and th his body began to seep through the fissure.

At that time, a two-meter tall wingless Dragon baby smashed the last wall and a ray of light illuminated the small cave.

The face of the old man, that was seeping through the tiny fissure, was very old and wrinkled, most of his front teeth were gone.

He looked like someone that was halfway to the grave due to age, but what was noticeable about him was that he was blind. Technically, he has no eyes. It's just an empty socket!

"Bye, Zeah! Miss you!" He said before he seeped through and disappeared completely.

"Aaron, roar!" The wingless baby Dragon roared.

Aaron Babadose!

A player likes Seth who was left in Gawee Contint. However, he was trapped in the vast cave of the Gold Dragon Nest.

"I need to build up my confidce again!" Seth mumbled. The mtal stab he felt last time gave him an eerie feeling. And he began to wonder what would happ if he continued charging the Womb to stage five.

The reason for his hesitation was, he might have crashed Hive Mind Game back in the day, but Astroid Online is no ordinary game.

It was infinitely better than Hive Mind.

Crushing the game to the point of overheating his headgear and ev catching fire was differt than facing Asteroid Online Cabin.

That's why Seth cooled down his ego until he did some research.

Seeing it's time to sleep and logging out Seth closed his eyes and fell asleep. And at that momt he was logged out of the game.

'Yesterday I didn't get the chance to know what really happed that made Adamina say I broke the game. I should ask her since I have no class today!'
