Temporal Pearls
Chapter 69 - 69: Raaz The Naughty!

Seth quickly dragged one of the flexible water containers he filled with water and poured the water into a large empty barrel.

He also poured different water till he filled the barrel.

He then opened the mouth of the flexible container wide and put his head inside.

He grabbed the gradually dissipating Filtron and inserted it inside. He then jumped into the barrel.

He made sure the flexible container stretched a bit and there was air inside.

After that, he sealed it by tightening it to his neck with his hands. And then immersed his whole body in the water.

Now, his head was trapped in the flexible air with limited oxygen and also the stone called Filtron. In a few breaths, he finished the oxygen available but with the transparent aerogel called Filtron, the air kept renewing. His body on the other hand began to relax as his blood vessels were filled with filtron energy.

His skin became red but this time it has a healthy hue and his lungs were the ones having more benefits as they were improving fast.

[First Might activated]

Excited to see what would happen but a minute later nothing.

Thirty minutes later, he was a bit tired but the exertion point only fell by one, so he held on breathing in and out and his breath kept renewing by filtron that was slowly reducing in size.

Three hours later, the filtron had dissipated and he felt as if he was breathing scorching air in a dried desert, but still, he felt he could still go on.

By the time there was no more oxygen whatsoever in the bag, he began to suffocate in real-time and fast. Out of reflex, he yanked the flexible container up and tried coming out but along the way he breathed in water, still, nothing bad happened to him as he came out panting.

[Your Lungs have been improved, you can survive places with the least amount of beneficial gasses]

[First Might evolving your lungs]

And then another excruciating pain assaulted Seth's chest but not as worse as the tattoo, so he only groaned around with a scowled face.

"Hooo!" Seth breathed out, the scent of nature overwhelming his mind. But that was the only change, still, he felt like if he wanted to breathe more oxygen he could do that.

His eyes glanced at the two stones lying on the ground. Nothing changed about them.

He walked out of the barrel and removed all his attire and some equipment then dropped them in the water barrel. He then grabbed the stones.

Graviton was heavy, it consumed 1 exertion point to bring it inside the barrel while Gawee Stone seemed to dissipate by touch and he dumped it too in the water-filled barrel. And he entered too.

Then he began to rub the stones on each of the attire and by doing so, the stones were getting used up. Gawee Stone has gone faster than the Graviton Stone.

By the time the stones were used off, it was only 10 minutes before log out, so Seth jumped out from the barrel and… then something happened that put a smile on his face.

What happened was there was a delay before his leg touched the ground and that was the effect of Graviton. Seeing the benefit, Seth jumped back to the barrel and made sure he would not drown and then he fell asleep and logged out!

Sling!

'First Might affect and improve any physical enhancement!' Seth thought with a smile, hoping that it will affect these new effects.

'But… did it enhance my evolution with the Womb? I didn't sense it or see any notifications!' He wondered

Seth threw that at the back of his mind and went to prepare for school.

Raaz on the other hand was on a plane going to meet his ex-girlfriend. He was mulling over and over how to tell her that that thing was destroyed. He thought of appeasing her, however…!

Instead of trying to pacify her, he decided to do something… a crook smile appeared on his face—and then make her listen with something. He glanced at his suitcase with a smile and waited till he reached his destination.

The journey was uneventful and he arrived at the House Seana was living in. He entered and made himself at home like usual. It was the house they promised to live in after their marriage, but for his own reasons, he decided to refuse the idea of settling down with her.

Raaz, as a naughty man, washed and wore only a bathrobe and shorts and came to the parlour to surprise her. One thing Seana can't resist was his sexual appeal.

Hearing her car enter the garage, Raaz went to shower and came out fast, his chest bare, steaming and drops of water all over him. Then he grabbed an expensive wine he bought to welcome her.

He stood at the door with a glass cup in one hand and a bottle of wine in the other—waiting for her to come in.

"What the hell…!" Seana shrieked as she opened the door.

"Hey, bab…!" Raaz snickered but then he became speechless as he stared at them.

"Hello! I… didn't know you were bringing someone?" Raaz stammered as he looked at the gentlemen she brought home.

She became red with anger and lost in speech. She looked at her date and then at Raaz without knowing what to say and how to react.

"You planned this… to ruin my life!" She tried hard to stop herself from screaming in anger. Then tears came down rolling on her cheeks

"Hello. I'm Rick Richard!" The man she brought said as he went to shake Raaz's hand.

They shook hands and Raaz was disquieted, this wasn't what he planned. If he knew she would bring someone he wouldn't show up here.

"Anyway, I came here for us to amend. I didn't...know you move on!" Raaz forced out, before he went to the room, wore his clothes and packed his stuff.

He left the house leaving the couple standing awkwardly. He heard rumours that Seana was seeing someone but fear of jealousy made him not look into the man's identity.

Rick Richard, he knew the guy, he was a millionaire and a philanthropist. He had been showing his interest in Seana but he never got a chance until now.

Slumping in a hotel room, Raaz thought about the reason why he broke up with her in the first place. The main reason was she wanted to settle down and he didn't.
