God´s Eyes

'Wield elemental runes…?' While Jason had never heard about them, he understood that elemental runes were most likely the runes manifested out of the purest of transmuted mana he had already seen before.

There might as well be other ingredients required, but Jason didn't know anything about that.

However, instead of asking about the origin of elemental runes and what exactly they were, Jason wanted to set up the soul contract with Lusan first, and finish everything else.

Emily had told him he was unconscious for one month, and the number of liquefied drops of mana inside his mana core had increased to 28 thanks to his passive mana gathering within his sub-area.

It was as if the passive mana gathering in his sub-area had been upgraded since he had unleashed his entire Celestia bloodline, and the same could be said about his soul energy increment cycle!

Both processes hadn't truly changed, and it was more like the sub areas themselves had been reinforced, allowing them to alter slightly.

This enhancement was only small and Jason knew that it would have a bigger effect if his entire bloodline had been fully unsealed.

Nevertheless, it felt like his partial unsealed bloodline was finally completely accepted by every cell of his body, which meant that his sub-area was included.

Thus, the processes inside the sub-area had been accelerated, and his soul energy increment cycle was able to increase his soul energy units by 1.5% instead of 1% a day!

This was great, but the number of soul energy units he received was unfortunately still not enough to turn Solaris into an invincible origin flame that was stronger than every opponent he would have to face!

However, what caused Jason to be a little disappointed was Artemis' current advancement. Her strength increased slower than his own, which was contrary to their earlier days, and Jason thought that he should feed her higher-ranked mana cores.

Even if he was thinking about doing so, there were not many beasts around the Argos alliance, and nobody cared about collecting them right now!

Rather than collecting them, they would be utilized to forge weapons or strong armors!

As such, Jason could only feed Artemis with mana stones which she could also digest.

'I'll have to procure more mana stones….I've used up every single one I had after all!'

He was not sure how long it took before the soul contract with the Elvyr race was finally set up, and Jason was glad that he only owed their race a small favor.

Despite that, he was a halfling of the Celestia race and a small favor from a Celestia was worth far more than Jason could have imagined at that time!

Only when they had finished the soul contract did Lusan do something Jason didn't expect.

He averted his attention to Emily as he asked

"Did you decide whether you'll depart with us?.... From the way I can tell, you want to give the lesser typhoon roc the best possible nourishment but there something seems to hold you back on Argos!"

Jason heard the Elvyr's offer for the first time, but instead of being happy or disappointed, he simply looked at Emily without showing any emotions.

He was not even sure what Emily was to him, and the only thing Jason was confident about was the fact that Emily had been loyal to Dalia, who had been her master.

This was enough for Jason, thus he looked at Emily, who seemed to be reluctant to answer, without saying anything.

"I..I'm still in debt to someone…" She simply said, and Lusan, the only Elvyr able to understand her smiled because he thought that this was the only reason that held her back.

"If it's a debt, we can pay for it! The human race should be in a dire need of funds, weapons, or to be precise...everything! As such, resources shouldn't be a problem, and we can pay the debt, which will allow you to follow us to our planet once we depart!"

Emily was thankful for this offer, but she could only shake her head as she said

"It's not a debt about something materialistic, but I owe my life to someone…"

When Lusan heard this he frowned, as Jason suddenly said

"You mean the soul contract that you will be thankful to me for your entire life? Is that what's holding you back?"

She just nodded while looking to the ground.

"You know that I did everything on my own accord, and the same applied to my masters...They would never want you to be restricted, neither do I! Just do what your want to do. That's the best Dalia could have wished for..." 

"But..I want to help you….it's just that I'm too weak…!" 

Emily sounded desperate and her voice was seemingly in pain.

This astonished Jason and only now did he realize there were other people who had lost someone close to them because they were too weak too!

In the end, she had spent even more time with Dalia than he did, and Jason couldn't help but call himself selfish.

He had thought that only he lost someone he had loved, but that was not the case and it had happened to everyone around him too!

There were so many humans that had died during the last two years, and Jason could only sigh deeply as he overcame himself

"It's not your fault to be weak...neither is it mine to be too weak either...That's just how it is...we will have to strive for more and continue to advance to ending the Great Argos war and preventing it from ever happening again!"

Somehow, his words gave Jason the vigor he seemed to have lost before.

Even though he was weak, if he were to give up, he could have also died during the Blood eclipse!

What difference would that make?

Was giving up even an option?

There were still people he wanted to protect…

Even if his masters had died, would they want him to give up, at the most crucial time?

If he were to give up his life, they would be disappointed because they had wanted him to stay alive!

Jason knew this, and it gave him a little bit strength, thinking that he shouldn't throw away his life like that!

There were still humans that were much weaker than he was, in an even worse state, filled with desperation, struggling to stay alive even if it was only one more day!

He recalled the situation on Astrix that was devastating and began to ask himself, what he had been doing until now.

'There are weak and untalented citizens struggling to survive, overcoming everything with their utmost efforts, and here I am...cursing my own weakness, despite being stronger than the vast majority of all of them…'

Even without unleashing his entire bloodline, which was something Jason didn't know how it worked, his strength was comparable to that of the average person at the low Lique stage with 200 drops of liquefied mana inside their mana core.

Other than that, there were still his new weapons that had allowed him to defeat Dana, who had almost 1000 mana drops, and it had not even been a difficult fight!

Jason's resolve to stop complaining and work for his beliefs became firmer again, and he told himself that he would give his utmost efforts to make Scorpio and his masters proud of him!
