God's Eyes

While Jarid was having the time of his life, being bashed by the strongest and also the oldest prodigy of the youngest generation, Jason's fight against the three of the strongest prodigies of the Olympus federation had reached its climax too!

Jason threw a glance at Xyna when he sensed the appearance of something grand, only to realise that it was merely an illusion that signified the activation of a special technique.

This attracted Jason's attention, but he had by no means, time to waste to think about Xyna, let alone Jarid.

The prodigies belonging to the Hran, Hamaa, and Fyrmn race were more than enough trouble he had to take care of.

His fusion with Artemis was still fully utilized and Jason knew that it would hold for more than ten minutes.

As such, he had more than enough time to face his opponents.

There was no need to hold back for either of them, and the Fyrmn prodigy had already utilized her psychokinesis ability as she controlled a bunch of daggers she had taken out of her spatial ring.

However, instead of firing them at Jason, the Hamaa enveloped the daggers with his unique mana, further strengthening them while the Hran did the same, giving the daggers a darkness property.

This was extremely interesting and it had been a long time since Jason had seen members of different races work together in order to increase their combat capabilities.

Utilizing only a small amount of mana, the daggers turned into lethal weapons that were strong enough to injure opponents at the 10th Lique stage!

Even if Solaris could do the same, it was exceptional because the three prodigies had barely used any mana. Nobody knew for sure just how long they could attack him with the bunch of daggers the female Fyrmn was controlling.

Despite that, Jason was extremely calm as he exerted his black fire affinity.

When he had learned about his ability to fuse with Artemis for the first time, he had noticed something weird about his fire affinity, and it didn't take him long to figure out what exactly it was.

Influenced by Artemis, and the bond of unconditional trust between all of his soulbonds, the black flames were transmuted during the fusion process of Jason with Artemis!

Not only had Jason's eyes and hair changed their color, but the same also applied to his fire affinity!

Despite being an origin flame, Solaris was his soulbond, and at the same time his affinity seed.

It had multiple tasks, but the most important was to obey Jason's demands.

As such, the searing hot flame that could burn through everything had slowly turned into an extremely cold flame that froze everything around it.

Upon releasing the frozen flame, a faint blue hue enveloped Jason, further increasing the oppressive pressure everyone felt by simply looking at him.

Nobody was sure what kind of existence Jason looked like, but the pitch-black horns that grew out of his forehead and the two stigmas that shone in a bright golden-silverish light caused everyone to feel like a superior race had descended on Argos.

Ideally, it was impossible, but the same applied to individuals of grand races.

Yet, Jason's naturally awakened stigma told everyone that he was either the descendant of a being hailing from a grand or even higher ranked race!

Other than that, there could only be a secret about mankind, nobody knew of, but that was not something anyone was concerned about right now.

Wisse, who had a high control over both fire and ice, couldn't help but stare at Jason as he subconsciously blurted out.

"My prey! I'll definitely be the one to take him down!"

Old Sadran, who sat next to Wisse could only glance at him with an uncomfortable gaze.

The tension was slowly escalating, and the Olympus federation had shot itself in the foot by inviting mankind to this year's liberation tournament.

In the end, the invitation had caused the encounter between Jason and Wisse, which was something that could lead to unimaginable consequences.

'Will he take away the young man by force?... If that's so, we will be considered accomplices and it won't be possible, or make it extremely difficult for us to forge ties with the human race…'

Old Sadran's mind was rattling with thoughts as he tried to predict Wisse's next move while his gaze had returned to the battlefield where he continued to look at his descendants' fight.

However, his mind was not in place and he bit his lips trying to figure out what the Dragonoid wanted from Jason!

'He is definitely a prodigy, one of a kind at that, but is that really enough for the Dragonoid to be so interested in him? Wisse's bloodline is extremely strong, and from the aura he had radiated earlier, it's possible that his ancestors are true and pureblooded dragons!'

Scratching his short beard, he tried to think of a solution about how he could maintain a good relationship with both the Dragonoids that visited them once in a while, and mankind.

An entire minute passed, in which Jason had conjured freezing fire needles that precisely targeted the daggers controlled by the female Fyrmn prodigy.

It was only then that Old Sadran got an idea.

"Mr. Wisse, how about you talk with Jason, once the liberation tournament is over? Because of the changed rules, the tournament will end tomorrow instead of a week later, and the young man should have more than enough time for you!"

Old Sadran sounded optimistic on the outside, but his inner thoughts were not that confident as he was not sure what exactly he was currently doing.

His mind was fuzzy and he could only hope that the Dragonoid's bad temper wouldn't cause any misunderstandings or accidents.

'I hope this didn't make it worse!'

Meanwhile, Jason had already scrapped the entire batch of daggers the female Fyrmn had been controlling.

Owing to Solaris, who hadn't lost any of its affinities despite having turned into a freezing fire, the mana nullification ability it had, made several things more difficult for his opponents.

Not only was it extremely difficult to control other objects that were frozen due to the freezing fire needles, but the multiple layers of enhancements were slowly disintegrating too!

Jason was still learning all kinds of things about the fusion, let alone the frozen fire affinity that came bundled with Artemis' fusion.

This learning process was exciting, but Jason also noticed the mana fluctuations vibrating violently behind him, causing a commotion in the spectators.

Their attention had been drawn to Jarid and Xyna's fight that had turned out to be much more exciting than anyone could have imagined.

Initially, Xyna had expected to defeat Jarid within a few seconds after activating the White tiger spiritual descension technique.

However, it was much more difficult, which was not only because of her injuries or the freezing cold around and within her.

Jarid's strength increased consistently, while his eyes seemed to have turned into an incarnation of thunder itself, creating faint currents as his affinity's capacities heightened.

This was all due to the third seal that barely weighed on his thunder constitution anymore.

He had loosened it lightly, allowing the thunder his body created naturally to escape.

Unfortunately, Jarid was still unable to control everything perfectly, and he played with fire by unlocking his third seal.

Nevertheless, he wanted to show everyone that the human race wasn't the only one that could defeat those who were deemed as stronger because of their age, cultivation base, and so-called talent.

The determination to go beyond the limits was equally important and Jarid wanted to show this to everyone, knowing that Jason was willing to break through his own limitations over and over again if necessary!
