Chapter 257 - Earth Dragon?!



Chapter 257 – Earth Dragon?!

Claiming a seat for the Big-Three tournament which would start already the day after, Jason was satisfied with his achievement, even though he might have acted a little bit harsh.

For his opponent to maintain his seat with a low-evolved fire affinity and only a 1st Expert mana core rank until now, he should have been proficient with his martial art technique.

However, it seemed like Jason’s onslaught of black, peak-evolved fireballs might have been too much, as he manifested two dozen of them within a few seconds, without a large interval between.

If an average person were to do this, they would most likely require more time to circulate the mana inside their body to manifest fireballs around them, while the whole process all ogether would also take slightly longer.

As such, even Seron, who was already aware of his friend’s high proficiency with his affinities, was slightly taken aback because he couldn’t have imagined that Jason would be able to increase his accuracy to shoot the fireballs exactly at the same spot, while trying to maintain a dozen fireballs at the, without any signs of instability.

There weren’t many students, challenging each other as it was the last day, as such a few noticed Jason’s fight against the fire ability user, only to overwhelm him by simply shooting two dozen fireballs in succession at the poor 1st Expert rank, who could only lament having met Jason.

His clothes were burned, showing his burned skin below, and the youth had to suppress his tears, while Jason didn’t give him more attention than required.

Without knowing the capabilities of his opponent, Jason’s opponent charged at him, not caring that he remained extremely calm, even though his mana core was only at the 6th Adept rank.

This alone should have been enough to tell the 1st Expert rank to remain level-headed without mindlessly charging at him, taking Jason as a pushover.

Today’s fight would most likely be a good lesson for the youth and it would have been a waste of time for him to enter the Big-Three tournament if he were to act similarly reckless there.

Thinking about the Big-Three tournament, Jason felt excited, even if Old Drake forcefully plummeted this excitement, because it was unsure what exactly he planned.

Since a month ago, where Old Drake told Till to take him to the mana dome tower, where they met the Drake family patriarch, Jason and Old Drake didn’t talk to each other, because there was simply no reason for either of them.

But this caused Jason to feel even more insecure about his current position because Shane was injured, and it wouldn’t be considered unlikely for Old Drake to scheme something in the shadows, as he already tried to draw the patriarch’s attention to him before.

As such, Jason could only sigh deeply, thinking that it was time for him to call Shane and Dalia once again to figure out what exactly his masters could do at the moment, and what exactly he was supposed to do.

In the end, this was the best solution, because communicating with each other could solve many issues, with his masters raking their brains to secure his safety.

Jason didn’t like relying on his masters, but apparently, there didn’t seem to be another way, other than fleeing out of the Drake family’s clutches while hiding somewhere until he was strong enough, which would take years, without being able to act freely as his current circumstances were not favorable.

While the special combat class continued, there were only a few students left, and in the end there nothing special that happened anymore.

Seron also told him that the beast he wanted as soulbond would soon lay its egg, after several dozen years, which caused Jason to wonder what kind of beast his friend would contract.

However, even after asking, Seron only showed him a knowing smile, as he said “You’ll see soon enough!”, as Jason offered to help his friend to pick a good beast, due to his mana eyes.

“As you know, I can see mana fluctuations, and if there are several offsprings it might be possible for me to tell you which of them is the best to form a soulbond contract with, even if I cannot promise anything.”

Knowing that what he said was the truth, even if the reason was different, Jason made a one-time offer to Seron because he helped him a lot to improve his martial art techniques, and even gifted him the weightless steps movement technique, which he utilized a lot.

As such, he wanted to thank Seron properly, who looked at him, pondering, as Till who stood close to them said

“You can come with us, and it’s not really dangerous…maybe a little bit intimidating, but Seron will only benefit from it, right?

Till knew that Jason’s potential was limitless and after figuring out that the golden-eyed youth contracted not only Artemis, a beast labeled as trash, a miniature Parascors, and even a mutated black flame, while maintaining an extraordinary high combat prowess which seemed to become better with each day passing, Till couldn’t help but feel happy, when Jason told Seron, that he could help him to figure out which soulbond he should choose.

This, however, meant that there were multiple offsprings, which was extremely rare, as the beast Seron wanted to bind had an extremely low fertility rate, even among its rank.

After Till said so, Seron only nodded his head, as a vibrant smile emerged on his face, which caused Jason to smile weirdly.

“Now that master allowed you to come with me, I can tell you what kind of beast I’ll contract!

It’s an Earth Dragon! Isn’t that cool?”

Hearing this, Jason’s smile stiffened for a moment before he blinked several times without saying anything for a moment.

“An…Earth Dragon??” He asked to reassure what Seron said, and seeing him nodding his head, vigorously, Jason couldn’t help but sigh…

“Aren’t Earth Dragons extremely extinct on Canir and even rare to find in permanent rifts all around our territory? Even though they are only at the peak-Guardian rank, their affinity is on an entirely different league, compared to others on their rank…WAIT?! Do you want to tell me that you have enough soul energy units to bind a Guardian-ranked beast? A PEAK guardian ranked Dragon at that?!”

Perceiving what exactly Seron told him right now, he could barely hold himself together…

While a magical ranked beast already required between 2.000 to 10.000 soul energy units, a Guardian ranked beast required 10.000 to 100.000 soul energy units, which was not something a 14-year-old youth should be able to bind, until the age of 17 or 18, considering that Seron’s soul energy was high since his soul-awakening.

However, hearing Seron’s words, he couldn’t help but feel weird.

‘Normally one would accumulate soul energy units for years in order to reach something Seron achieved in….7 or so months?’

Looking at his friend in shock, Seron already figured out what exactly his friend wanted to tell him, as Till behind him intercepted their discussion.

“Jason you don’t have to be so shocked. Even though Seron’s soul energy was high since his soul awakening, because he hails from a big family, he was allowed to awake his soul a few months prior to you, even more so, because Seron had to tent his malfunction.

In the end, the Earth Dragon we’ll pick up will still remain in its egg for several months up to one year, maybe even two in order to grow healthy, if Seron contracts it before it grows up in its shell. As such, his soul energy can slowly be adjusted!”

Staring daggers at his teacher, because he was not even allowed to speak for himself, Seron told Jason.

“When I awoke my soul roughly 9 months ago, I had roughly 1000 soul energy units, which is already extremely high, and even without practicing the Heaven’s Hell technique, I could have contracted a mid-unblemished beast, or a magical ranked beast in its juvenile stage while practicing the Heaven’s Hell technique.

However, I had to bind a mutated mana slime, because it was necessary to tend my malfunctioned mana veins which allowed me slowly accumulated more soul energy in order to prepare for a powerful second soul bond.

Currently, my soul energy is at 20.000 units and each practice with the Heaven’s Hell technique, takes up to six hours, if not longer…Unfortunately, I can’t neglect my other practice, otherwise, I would practice the Heaven’s Hell technique every day.

Nevertheless, with my current soul energy units and the long period an Earth Dragon requires to hatch even after I bind it, I should be able to reach its requirements”

Hearing this, Jason couldn’t help but feel astonished, as he wondered why his friend took up such a difficult path in order to contract an Earth Dragon, which would take even more soul energy units than a normal beast because it was labeled a mythical beast, with terrifying strength, before it even hatched.

Thinking about the reason, he finally remembered that the situation was similar to his and Artemis’ because his soulbond with her had been extremely thick since the beginning.

Remembering this, Seron probably planned to act as if he was his future second soul bond’s mother or something similar to that in order to establish a thicker bond.

His eyes widened and Jason could only praise Seron’s decision inwardly, even if there would be many obstacles, the benefits would still overweight the effort!

The two of them continued to talk to each other about all kinds of other topics, once Jason digested the news about Seron’s second soulbond’s choice and the special combat class ended, without anyone else challenging the two of them as they went home.

Milo who talked to Seron earlier was occupied with Bella who nagged him for spending too much time with Seron, which caused him to excuse himself shortly after Jason arrived.

Apparently, they were a couple, which was somewhat entertaining for Jason, who thought that they suited each other.

All of them were excited about the tournament that would start the next day, and Jason’s worry about Old Drake seemed to have vanished, as he entered the shuttle he ordered before.
