Chapter 241 - Sacrifice To Become Stronger



Chapter 241 – Sacrifice To Become Stronger

Floating in the air with Till’s manifested wings flapping once in a while, Jason still tried to wriggle out of his firm grasp.

However, noticing that Till didn’t seem to loosen his grip even a tiny bit, Jason was forced to give up, as he tried to face him head-on.

“If the foreign races arrive when I’m with the Drake family patriarch, everything might be destroyed, with millions of innocent lives being eradicated!?”

Compared to Jason’s fearful expression, Till face showed a cold, yet confused expression when he heard ‘foreign races’.

He was on bad terms with them due to multiple reasons and Jason behaved suspiciously, which caused him to doubt what the youth in his arms said

But, even if Jason’s behavior was weird, Cyro-City, or rather Astrix overall, couldn’t take any unnecessary risks right now.

As such, Till had to gather more intel.

Slowly descending to the ground, they landed inside a lush park within the City’s core area.

Loosening his grip around Jason, Till indicated him to sit down, as he asked the obvious question with a firm and serious voice.

“Why are you saying something like this? Is there something important you didn’t tell anyone yet?!

Jason was about to tell Till everything when he suddenly remembered various occasions when Till released his killing intent and anger towards foreign races, and he halted for a moment as he pondered what to do

‘Maybe I shouldn’t tell him that I could be a halfling?!’

Think about what to say, Jason tried to figure out the easiest path, as he hesitantly said.

“I don’t know how to put it, but when the three foreign races came to Cyro city a few days ago, there was the time when Shane was called out by the Shadow walker, right? After that, they halted in their tracks and gazed towards me.

When they scanned through me it was extremely weird as if they wanted to do something to me…

However, in the end, the Shadow walker killed only the two foreign races and didn’t kill, Shane, after I attacked him with three darkness rays, right?

In the end, it seemed as if the Shadow walker said something to me in his language. However, without being able to speak this foreign language, I couldn’t understand it, yet somehow my sixth sense told me that there was more behind this and I’m only unable to comprehend it!”

Sighing inwardly, Jason was sure that he picked a relatively good reason, that the foreign races shouldn’t see him for now, or at least until he figured out more.

Even if he might have said too much, Till should already be aware of most of it, so Jason decided that it was not too bad to remind Till about everything once again.

Cyro-City already faced too many problems, and challenging their luck was not something the Drake family could take head-on at the moment.

Even less, because they were unaware at what rank the approaching foreign races were.

Till was still suspicious about Jason, but hearing his reason, he nodded his head, because he already felt extremely weird, that the Shadow walker, which was a race commonly known for their cruelty and merciless slaughter, let go of Shane, without killing him.

Furthermore, he didn’t do anything to Jason who tried to assassinate him, and after combining the facts about Jason feeling weird, about the foreign races’ gaze, Till tried to comprehend a reason.

Looking at Jason, Till also remembered that Jason unintentionally absorbed a massive amount of mana from his surroundings without being able to do anything against it.

Because the absorbed mana was immediately circulated into his eyes, Till was led to the conclusion that the foreign races were most likely interested in Jason’s unique mana eyes, with their special abilities.

‘Are his eyes that much of an advantage, even for the foreign races?’ He asked himself, but without more information, there was nothing he could do about it, as he sighed lightly.

Opening the holographic screen on his quantum bracelet, he called someone.

“What is it, Little Greil? Is the small boy misbehaving? Should I call someone over to drag him to me?” Hearing a tranquil, yet somewhat eerie voice, Jason’s eyes quivered for a second, before he was able to control himself, as Till said.

“Sir Drake, this is not necessary. I’m next to him right now but he is about to break through and forcing him out of his breakthrough might result in a damaged mana core….If Sir is fine with it, I’ll wait for Jason to finish everything before I bring him over. Damaging our blossoming prodigies will only harm our already weakened population..”

Till didn’t want to sound rude, but he tried to figure out a reason to have some time in order to comprehend what Jason told him before he would explain everything to the Drake family’s patriarch…

Knowing the patriarch since he was young, Till knew that he would either kill or subdue dubious humans with high potential under a harsh soul contract in order to secure his overlord position, while at the same time ensuring new powerhouses below him.

Till didn’t want that Jason to be forced in signing a soul contract that would turn him into the patriarch’s slave with multiple shackles forcing him into submission.

In the end, there was also the possibility that Jason would be killed if he was to reject the soul contract, which forced Till to lie to the patriarch or to find a simple solution to everything, without turning Jason into someone suspicious.

The small youth in front of him was just too innocent, yet extremely talented to let him be shackled down by someone.

“Well…I’m not fond of waiting, but you’re right…I would be blamed if a prodigy were to injure his mana core while breaking through, only to appear in front of me…Place a few high-grade mana stones next to him to hasten up the process! The sooner he arrives, the faster I can leave this place! You know that I still have to suppress my new soulbond after that happened!!”

After he finished speaking, the Drake family patriarch hung up, which caused Jason to frown, when he heard the last sentence.

Jason’s eyes seemingly asked ‘What exactly happened with his soulbond?’ Till noticed this, as he smiled lightly with frustration, pain, and sadness shimmering in his eyes.

“I see that you’re confused, but let me tell you one thing! Never ignite the Drake family’s.. or rather all big families’ greed!! Never! At least if you want to live in comfort….”

Looking at Till, Jason was now more confused than before, as he unintentionally asked.

“Why?”

Looking into the treetop, Till explained silently

“Roughly twenty years ago, the Drake family were able to get their hands on an Ice Dragon egg, by stealing it from the mother Dragon that killed probably several dozen Lord stages and heavily injured three sovereign ranks.

Jael Drake, the Drake family patriarch, however, didn’t have enough space for another soulbond left in his soul world, while a dragon is said to take more space than normal beasts.

As such Dragons are also labeled as higher beings, like some other beasts with the same characteristics, like a larger soul world demand, high mana affinity, strong physique, and extremely powerful affinity.

To come back to the main topic, Jael Drake killed every single of his soulbonds, severely damaging his soul world, only to contract the Ice dragon egg two years ago.

He could only heal his damaged soul world by utilizing the Drake family’s enormous funds and their ability to procure unique ingredients, able to slowly force his soul world to recuperate from its severe injuries….

Just listen to my advice and don’t ignite the Big families, ancient clans, and all other hidden powerhouses’ greed, without being able to protect yourself…okay?”

Till seemed to be sad and frustrated that someone treated their own soulbonds as if they were mere tools, which was entirely different from how Till treated his soulbonds, because he was them as a part of his family, which was different than how some other big families treated their soulbonds.

Jason was also taken aback, by the Drake family patriarch’s behavior, and from the voice call, he also figured out that he was not able to completely control the Ice Dragon, as of now.

‘Killing his own soulbonds, after living with them for several decades, if not even a century or two….I have to be careful…’

Before, Jason didn’t take the big families’ greed seriously, but that changed after he heard that the Drake family patriarch killed his own soulbonds to receive more benefits, which was comparable to tearing out his own limbs, only to receive something, which was disgusting, yet it seemed to have benefited him a lot.

Nevertheless, it was fortunate for him to have to meet Till because he seemed to be entirely different from the other big families, even if he still belonged to them.

From his knowledge, the Greil and Gier family were considered the most peaceful big families who also think that increasing their territory is a useless waste of human lives, which Jason completely supported.

However, Jason knew that he had too many secrets that might ignite someone’s greed, which caused him to feel naked all of a sudden when he perceived familiar, yet unknown mana fluctuations from far away.

These mana fluctuations belonged to the Ganasia and the Deepsea scion race, and he immediately figured that out because of their complex structure, Jason saw thanks to his mana eyes, and he felt extremely fortunate that they didn’t seem to fight with each other, as they approached Cyro-City with a fast past.
