Temporal Pearls

Chapter 85: Man In The Bathrobe



"I have to. I need to find certain things!" Seth then explained what he was up to but sadly the car doesn't have a scanner to learn what it was.

<Even without this little Quest of yours, I will like to be installed with some things that will help me>

"Like what?" Seth asked.

<My body and engine need protection and also need some scanning equipment. The most I need for now are bomb-proof shells, bomb detectors, ground scanners, sky scanners, scanning pads, levitation rims, indestructible tires and a Satelite blocker>

Seth stared at the list that he can't wrap his head around.

"I don't even know any of those!" He complained.

"I will need a Satellite blocker the most. Because the moment I drove to certain places I began to feel under the radar of some satellite>

"Okay, I believe that can wait!"

<Without them, I wouldn't take you to Dama State>

"Alright, I will think about it. But search and find whatever you can find about Dama State from 20 years ago. The mission is very important!"

<Okay!>

The charging was full already and Seth came out and met the waiting Anna. "You convinced her?" She asked.

"Nah, she really needed to charge. It's a security thing that I have to be in for the car to be full!"

Anna nodded, not convinced because when Seth was in the car he was talking constantly as if begging her for something.

"Safe journey!" He said as he watched Anna and her husband speed up on the asphalt.

Seth turned around when suddenly their gate burst open, a jeep with steel beams at the front barged into the house, knocking down the gate, Joseph ran fast to Seth and grabbed him in time and jumped out of the jeep's path, if he was second late, Seth would have been rammed by the car.

His heart beat wildly as he remembered something similar that had happened to him.

"You fucker don't you know how to drive!" Seth flared up to point his finger at whoever was behind the black-tinted window car.

However, that wasn't the only car that slammed into the house. Two more jeeps and then a luxurious car with golden rims slid through the gate silently.

The moment it parked, men in suits and black goggles came out of the jeep and then arranged themselves in strategic locations. Two of the men in black went and stood at one of the doors of the luxurious car.

One, in particular, that came out of the jeep that almost rammed all of Seth, walked toward Seth and Joseph that were now in the flower field. Without warning, he raised his hand to slap Seth who was still supported by Joseph but Joseph sent his cheek while pulling Seth away.

Slap!

"I'm sorry sir, forgive the kid. He was just agitated, that's all. He didn't mean it!" Joseph's cheek was swollen and a tooth flew out of his mouth but he kneeled and began begging.

As if adding fuel to fire, the man pulled a gun and pressed it on his head. Seth's heart skipped a beat. Isn't this insane, when did things reach this stage?

In his perception, everything slowed down, he saw when the man pressed the trigger… but then he stopped. He put the gun back and walked back to the car.

At that time, the black luxurious car was opened and a man in a bathroom robe casually walked out with a yawn.

To Seth's shame and indignation, all his uncles in the house as well as his father ran and bowed to the man.

"Ah, Mr. Adam, you really united a group and formed a family. That was very good. You can rise!" They were still bowing until he insisted otherwise.

Seth's eyes veered to Joseph, he was still in a kneeling position, his hand on the ground and his face down. He assumed he might be crying but then.

"Do as I did!" The threatened Joseph said.

"Why?"

"Just do it. Unless you like seeing me get hit or a gun in my head."

Seth felt a knot in his throat, he had to push away pride and do as he was told. He kneeled and bowed just like Joseph. But his mind was racing, thoughts processing fast and his little energy drained in just less than a minute.

Plop!

He fainted.

None of the guards looked their way or even his family members came to check on him.

Seth later in the night woke up with a drip. He looked around and found his mother sleeping on the chair beside him. He tried to sit but he had no strength to raise his head.

He tried to speak but it was tedious but then he remembered what happened and his mood became sour.

'Is this the true nature of the upper class?' He debated, 'they are pieces of shit!' He cursed.

"You are awake?" Sarah asked. His little movement woke her from the half-sleep state she was in.

"Hmm!" Seth couldn't speak. "It's alright, please calm down, don't agitate yourself!" She whispered as tears rolled down her face.

Seth sighed and closed his eyes. Perhaps Pure White Stone Will have affected his real life too—a few minutes later he was able to calm down and he felt a wash of cold air as his hot body cooled down.

He had no idea that even as fainted his body was still agitated and shocked by what had just happened.

The drip did its job and he regained his strength slowly, also his mother's kind voice served to motivate him to relax.

Later, Adamina and her father came to visit him. After that other family members came too. No one brought the event that happened, only some other topic to just pass the time.

The next day, Seth was able to move normally. Strangely Joseph was not in the house. Seth asked and he was told that he went on to see someone in another city.

But the way everyone was hush-hush about it, Seth understood there was something shady about it.

Cling!

'The world is fuck up the place. Why do we strive to better ourselves? We eat and drink normally. Why seek beyond that?' Seth grumbled as he woke up in his cottage. His indignation abetted as he got to work.

The first thing he began was making rectangular brick boxes. Take a look at the barrel that was floating. His attire has absorbed all the Gawee Mud and it looked very pristine.

Seth grabbed them but then the barrel floated down. It was still not touching the ground but was now very long. Seth took the attire back because he was going to use the barrel for packing things and it had to be floating above the ground.

After that, he pushed the barrel fast to the Clay spot he had chosen for making bricks. Confirming it was the best one, he went to another clay and packed them in the barrel, which he was going to use as an additive for elasticity and then dumped it in the main ingredient which was the main clay.

He then visited another Clay and scooped some of it to the main claim. The difference proportion will give a high-quality brick, that was strong and durable for building purposes.

That wasn't all, he also got some fine sand in the midst. For the whole day that was what took his time, until one hour before logging out. That was when he went back to the cottage, unfold the first painting and began to copy.

After ten copies, his mind was dull as usual till he was logged out by the game.

Sling!

"Hoo!" He breathed deep as he walked out of the Cabin, what greeted him was a man in black goggles and a suit staring at him.

"Seth Enoch!" He called. But Seth just stared at him unresponsive. His anger was already bubbling but he knew his place.

"Are you Seth Enoch?" The man asked sternly.

"Who is asking?" Seth asked.

The man was taken aback by Seth's aggressive attitude. This wasn't how the lower class acted. But then he recognised the kid that insulted one of them yesterday and they had to send his uncle to hospital.

Without warning, he grabbed Seth's hair and dragged him out of the room. Strangely no one was there until they reached the main parlour which was filled with everyone and the guests.

Seth didn't know that his diving time had increased by 30 minutes ever since he began copying that painting and as forceful ejection was not recommended they assigned a guard to bring him after he logged out.

"Why are you dragging the Genius of the house that way?" A chubby man in casual clothes said sternly at the person dragging Seth.

And Seth identified him to be the guy in a bathrobe two days ago, the one that was accompanied by agents that almost rammed him with a car.
