God´s Eyes

The Fler's were overjoyed about Jason's offer, and only Greg seemed to hesitate because he didn't want to exploit his best friend.

Yet, Jason didn't hesitate, as he tried to find a compromise

"If you feel uncomfortable, you can just pay me back later...You can take it as a loan, but it doesn't really matter!"

In the end, he felt extremely thankful to the Fler's because they brought him to Cyro-City, which was one of the most important decisions he could ever take.

Otherwise, he might still be with the unevolved Artemis in Artes-city, where he grew up.

As such, he felt more comfortable in thanking the Fler's sincerely and giving them enough funds to purchase the required ingredients to concoct the evolution solution for the reinforced horned bull's, Taurus.

"How many star-notes do you need?" Jason asked, without waiting for Greg to accept his compromise.

Greg was still baffled and looked blankly at him, without answering, as Mark glanced at Jason with a light smile, saying

"We still lack around 300 star notes to purchase everything...Are you sure that you want to lend us such a large sum? Don't you have to go soon, if you accepted the mysterious Beast-Creator as your master?"

Noticing that even Mark, who was initially extremely greedy, acted so carefully around such a large amount of money, Jason couldn't help but look weirdly at all of them.

"It will help Greg to become stronger, right? And I already said that there is no need in paying me back. If you all are really so adamant in repaying me then…"

Pondering for a moment, a sudden idea popped up in his head.

Smiling brightly. Jason turned towards Greg as he said.

"If you really want to repay me, you just have to enter a high ranking in the Big-Three tournament, if it takes place! I'm pretty sure that my master wants me to apply in order to see my combat prowess. As such I will probably stay until it finishes.

To pay me back, you just have to either win a reward or gather enough funds until I depart!

You don't seem extremely confident in achieving the latter, as such do the first.

Do you think you can handle it?!"

Hearing what Jason said, Greg furrowed his brows, until a sudden thought emerged, as he mumbled.

"If Taurus unseals his hidden bloodline before the Tournament starts, I'm sure that I can control the Berserk ability better….Furthermore, I will become much stronger through my soul world's amplification, right?"

Listening to Greg's mumbling, Jason smiled because it was exactly what he thought.

Taurus' evolution would be somewhat different to Artemis and Scorpio's because his two soulbonds were initially Wild ranked beasts without an extraordinary high endurance and sturdy body constitution, which caused them to have a slower maturing process after their evolution.

In the end, they also had to adjust to their sudden increase of strength, slowly over time, without being able to mature as fast as other beasts that had a high racial limit since they were born.

However, Taurus already reached the mid-evolved stage and would most likely enter the low-unblemished rank, once it unsealed its hidden bloodline in addition to enough mana stones to supply the evolution into a Lesser Minotaur.

Malia was now also smiling when she noticed how crafty Jason's plan was.

If Greg wanted to pay him back, he had to enter the top ranks at the Big-Three tournament and to be able to accomplish this feat, Greg would be forced to become stronger in the shortest amount of time.

Not only would his soulbond have to evolve and unleash its complete hidden bloodline, but Greg would have to break through at least one rank, at the best even two, which was only possible with enough mana stones, provided nutrition.

Even if Greg was already close to the 7th Adept rank it would be difficult to break into the 7th Adept rank straight into the 8th within slightly more than a single month.

Looking into Jason's eyes, they seemed to gleam brightly and Malia began to wonder how far he wanted to bring her brother.

Averting her gaze, she suddenly noticed Greg's eyes flickering in determination as his gaze turned firm, which Malia never saw before.

Even Mark and Gabriella were astonished about Greg's sudden change in demeanor, as he spread a sudden energetic aura when he approached Jason who continued to smile at him.

Holding out his hand, Greg announced proudly"I promise you that I will enter the ranking within the Big-Three tournament and pay you back!!"

Gazing at Greg's large hand, Jason held out his own hand, shaking Greg's.

With this, Jason immediately knew that he would have another strong competitor for the Big-Three tournament, which made him happy.

'Maybe Seron will also surprise me?' Jason thought, thinking about his classmate and friend who should be weaker than him, considering that they were already equally strong, before Scorpio's evolution finished.

Loosening their grip, he immediately entered his storage device, as he took out 320 star notes, saying

"Use these 20 extra star notes to purchase cultivation resources and mana stones for Taurus evolution...you two will definitely need them"

Even if Jason still had some mana stones left, he wanted to use them for himself.

As such, giving Greg more star notes would most likely motivate him even further to become stronger in order to reach a better ranking in the tournament.

Because he came back, while the Fler's were having breakfast, everything turned chaotic, but after a few minutes to calm down, the five of them sat around the table to eat breakfast.

It had been long for Jason to eat breakfast with all Fler family members and it was tranquil and peaceful, even though the whole city was still devastated with tens of thousand citizens complaining about how stupid the government acted.

Even if someone didn't adore the government, one could say that the arrival of the foreign race envoys was something humanity couldn't fight against, without them being able to truly fight against, even if they wanted to.

Jason was also aware that the Shadow walker he saw, was able to annihilate mankind if he wanted to, while others only thought he might be at the peak sovereign rank.

Sighing deeply, he wasn't sure what to think about such humans, as he remembered Shane and Dalia telling him to be a support pillar for humanity.

'Why should I do something like this if everyone were to behave like that? What do they expect me to do...By the looks of it, humans accept everything as long as they can live relatively peacefully, while they start complaining once a single big incident happens… Meanwhile, minor incidents are either completely ignored or pushed away, as long as it doesn't have anything to do with them'

After figuring out that he might only be a human halfling, Jason began to question their behavior deeper.

The biggest contrast he noticed was, that he hated it to be controlled, while most humans seem to like living like this.

In the end, this was most likely only his personality and nothing specific from his ancestry, but it was still frustrating.

After they finished breakfast, the remaining Sunday was rather unspectacular, with Jason transferring his belongings to his spatial ring, which had a slightly faster response and interaction interval compared to his storage device.

Other than that, he took a look at the memory-drive he received from his masters, only for him to find out that inside were also a massive number of martial art techniques, ranging from Tier-1 to Tier-3, with unique and special skills, while he even noticed two blessed skills within.

Blessed skills were the most powerful skills humanity ever found and only the powerful families and clans had such skills, which the most likely found in ancient ruins within rifts.

At least, that was what everyone said when the question of the origin of these techniques came up.

Practicing the Heaven's Hell technique three times, his soul world shook lightly, increasing in size as Jason noticed that he broke through 500 soul energy units, which caused him to feel overjoyed.

Waking up the next day, Jason was shocked to hear from the news that the Drake family's patriarch arrived on Astrix with other powerhouses following him, to calm down the civilians and at the same time to prevent the worst-case scenario once the Ganasia and Deepsea scion race would take back the envoys' corpses.

But Jason's train of thoughts was completely different because the only thing he could do right now was to sigh in relief, as he thought out his masters.

'Fortunately, Dalia and Shane left yesterday…'
