Heaven Destroyer

Chapter 65: Time Artefact

Undead control!

Suddenly, the dragon which was struggling to stand on the ground became still; not moving an inch.

Ayaan looked nervously at the frame of bones. He wasn't a hundred per-cent sure if he would be able to control it; therefore it was a very critical time.

Finally, fifteen seconds later, the skeleton moved.

Rumble!

Hundreds of undead became ready to launch an all-out attack if anything were wrong. Ayaan held Rebecca's hand tightly nervously.

When Rebecca saw his concerned look, she patted on his hand, comforting. Ayaan nodded, reassuring her, and again turned towards the colossal body of the skeleton dragon.

Boom!

As the body of the dragon gained a little strength, it dashed towards the sky with a booming sound. After reaching the high about twenty meters, the dragon started to struggle.

Roar!

The dragon roared painfully. It's speed slowed down; finally, falling from the sky.

Bang!

The body fell on the undead creatures, crushing them. However, they were also great mage creatures; therefore, after a breath later, they walked out from under the skeleton.

Dragon general looked around in confusion, and when it saw Ayaan. It lowered its head, uttering, "Master."

Finally, a smile appeared on Ayaan's face. He became thrilled at the thought that he had seventh level great mage under his control!

Rebecca as well sighed in relief when she saw, their plan had succeeded. She had been scared witless when she saw the dragon soaring through the sky before. Although not for herself but for Ayaan.

She knew no one below heaven rank could kill him, but what would he do if someone would capture him. He had never tried if the system would still work when he was shackled in chains.

Nevertheless, he was in no mood to try that out. He was able to gain control over such a powerful undead, and that was enough for him, he didn't want to take more risks for today.

At this time, however, Ayaan remembered something. He looked at his new undead soldier, and inquired, "How did you able to breakthrough this fast?"

When the shadow bat returned after just a few minutes later and told him such a piece of detailed information about the dragon and spirit commander. Ayaan was dubious, how could such a long conversation happened in incredibly a short time.

Despite that, he didn't investigate or ask much questions to bat, because most of his attention was on the dragon.

However, when the dragon broke through in such a short period of fifteen minutes, he couldn't ignore the matter any longer. Something was definitely wrong in that cave.

At this moment, hearing Ayaan's query, skeleton dragon started to tell him everything, "A few years ago I went inside a tomb in the undead plane, and found an artefact. At first, I didn't know what use of that artefact was, but later, I found a way to activate it. I realised that the artefact was a heavenly treasure, a time artefact!"

Nonetheless, Ayaan didn't pay any attention to this word heavenly artefact. According to him, every treasure was made by a human or by any other race, later they gave them a rank.

There was no such thing as a heavenly artefact or treasures in this world. They were just name used by people who couldn't judge the correct worth of the treasures.

"Umm..so what this time artefact can do?" Ayaan asked excitedly. He already had an idea about this time artefact, but he wanted to ask this skeleton dragon to confirm his suspicion.

The skeleton general looked at Ayaan, and said with at most respect, "Milord, the artefact is capable of slowing down the time inside a specific area."

Ayaan's eyes shined with anticipation when he heard the skeleton. Now he was eager to get his hands on that artefact. He knew what type of advantages the time artefact could provide him.

Though the time ratio would slow down for him when he went inside the other planes. But what about when he was on the eastern continent?

He couldn't use the system to time manipulation in the eastern continent. If he could, he would be already way beyond the great mage. 

At first, he wanted to learn spells of time, but when he read the summary about the time element, he gave up. There were many advantages of cultivating a time element, but one mistake in a spell and everything would vanish like a whoosh!

One wrong step and he could turn himself a two-year kid, or hundred years old man. He could also disappear from the present timeline and could go to another one. If something like that were to happen, he didn't know what he would do. Therefore, this artefact was a very precious thing.

He couldn't remain in other planes all time. He had to go back due to mental fatigue. But if he had the time artefact he could use it and sleep at that time. He could save lots of time with that thing.

"Where is that artefact?" Ayaan asked with eagerness.

The dragon opened its mouth and gradually a small thing came out from it. Thereafter, he passed the thing to Ayaan.

As he saw what was the object, his eyes went wide on surprise, "A watch?"

Ayaan looked at the dragon in confusion. Because the thing which dragon had passed him was the wristwatch. It had the crown, bracelet, case, bezel, needles and all the things which any typical watch would have.

No matter how he looked at the watch, he couldn't believe that this thing could slow down the time. It was looking just too ordinary. There was no fluctuation of magic energy in the object.

What's going on? He thought and gradually turned towards the dragon, "You....are sure this is the thing which could slow down the time?"

The skeleton looked at his master in confusion. It didn't know why its master was asking the same question again. That thing was in a strange shape and was mysterious. The dragon had never seen anything like that before; of course, such a strange thing would be worthy of becoming time artefact.

However, the skeleton didn't know that these types of watches were normal on earth. And the thing in front of him was nothing but an ordinary watch.

"Yes master, it is the artefact I talked about. You just need to use your magic energy and the time will down around you." The dragon again explained anxiously. It didn't know why his master didn't seem to impress even after getting such an amazing artefact.

Anyways, Ayaan didn't pay any further attention to the dragon and inserted his magic energy into the watch. Instantly the watch started to shine with white colour but then the white colour gradually faded away, nothing happened.

Afterwards, he turned towards the dragon in confusion who was also looking at him with its eyes wide open. It couldn't understand why the artefact wasn't working in Ayaan's hand. Furthermore, the dragon was a little fearful as well because what would it do if its master gets angry.

Nevertheless, Ayaan didn't ask anything from the dragon any further. He knew the dragon wouldn't lie to him, it was in his full control. Therefore, he started to examine the watch thoroughly.

Finally, he placed the watch in his left wrist and closed its bracelet.

"Shit."

Ayaan groaned in pain. He felt as if needles had pierced in his wrist, sucking his blood. When he tried to take out the watch from his hand the pain gradually faded. And new information appeared inside his mind.

The Time Watch!

Yes, the name of the watch was the time-watch. It had the ability to manipulate time. Furthermore, it wasn't just capable of slowing down the time but it could also hasten it, in a particular area. And Ayaan had the full control over it. He could control the area of effect!

Only now did he understand the reason why he couldn't use the watch previously. He needed his blood to form the connection with the watch to control it. The dragon was able to use it because his magic powers were way beyond Ayaan.

The skeleton general was at the level six previous and now at level seven, but Ayaan was only at the third rank. Furthermore, the dragon didn't have any bloodline. It was just a body made of bones without any blood vessels. Therefore it couldn't control the watch completely.

Afterwards, Ayaan looked at Rebecca who had become anxious after hearing his painful groan, he gave her a gentle smile, "Everything is good. Don't worry."

Then he turned toward his undead army, spoke in a commanding tone, "you all did well. Now its time to go back to the eastern continent!"

"Yes, milord!"

Chirp!

Roar!

All the undead creatures expressed their happiness in different ways. Some spoke like humans; some chirped like birds while others roared like beasts.

Ayaan smiled at the display of his undead. He was certain about his theory. Although these creatures once died, they had become a new life form once more. They could feel the joy of victory; they would feel the pain when someone hit them.

Though he didn't realise; unconsciously, he started to treat his undead creatures more like an actual army in which he was a commander. If the commander couldn't treat his soldiers well, their motivation would decrease with time.

"How dare you, Bryzode!??" A distant shout echoed in the whole mountain.

"You dared to abduct one of our generals. Give him back or face the wrath of the spirit empire!!"

Ayaan heard the shouts and understood what was going on. It was the mess made by the skeleton general!
