Chapter 295 – Ravaging
Jumping through several spatial portals, Shane and Jason appeared somewhere deep inside a large and lush forest, when Shane turned around, with a sour expression.
“Jason, I don’t know how to say it in a comforting manner. As such, I’ll be blunt, alright?”
Jason, who already heard Shane mumbling “Blood sect” before, only nodded his head, hoping that his master might be able to help him figure out who killed his mother as he was unable to get to know it without help which bothered and frustrated him extremely.
The more time passed, the harder it would become to find out who murdered his mother and Jason knew that he was already late with his first approach to obtain more information after more than 6 years passed.
However, unfortunately enough, he couldn’t do much before because he had neither someone backing him up nor the strength to do something by himself.
Additionally, Jason was unsure how long it would take for him to return to Astrix which meant that it was his first and most likely last try to figure out more about his mother.
That was, at least on Astrix.
If the Cerus family didn’t know more, it was impossible for someone else on Astrix to know much more, except if the mysterious heir lived on this island, which was however very unlikely.
In order to fight a Grandmagus rank while being at the Magus rank and only in his 20s, his mother’s murderer must belong to a large family clan who coincidentally encountered the banquet and wanted to have some fun.
However, he probably didn’t expect to lose his challenge which caused him to wreak havoc.
Thinking about this possibility Jason bit his lips as he subconsciously released his killing intent which intensified when his train of thoughts continued.
Yet, after hearing Shane’s words, he listened intently because he was his last ray of hope to find out more without the need to overturn humanity
“To put it simply… the young man who murdered your mother is most likely from the ‘Blood sect’ which is an ancient, hidden sect on Canir… When I last encountered members of this sect, they were definitely on par with the big families according to their cultivation rank and combat prowess.
With this in mind, you would have to fight against the Blood sect if you want to take revenge on your mother’s murderer.
Normally it wouldn’t be that much of a hassle, but this mysterious youth seems to have been one of their prodigies who awoke their sects to inherit bloodlust ability.”
Even if it was not pleasing to hear whom he had to fight in the future in order to find his mother’s murderer, Jason was glad to have a set destination that was entirely different from searching for a needle in a haystack.
Nevertheless, Jason didn’t feel like smiling right now as it was quite obvious that the blood sect prodigy killed his mother because he felt like it.
It was not an accident or even remotely close to that and the small bubble of lies he formed in his mind to protect himself burst open, and he could only gnash his teeth in anger as he turned towards Shane.
Sighing deeply, he felt both angry and sad when Shane reassured him
“Let’s go meet Dalia. She is already waiting for you. Afterward, you can keep getting stronger and do as you please!”
Nodding his head, the two of them vanished inside the spatial portal that manifested behind them, only to repeat the same step several hundred times before they finally arrived at their destination.
**[Canir, Drake family headquarter (A few hours earlier)]**
A thunderous roar resounded throughout the whole Drake family country, as a several hundred-meter-long sky-blue colored Dragon dived down towards the Drake family headquarter, completely disregarding the existence of the surrounding cities.
Manifesting a blizzard, the surrounding landscape froze within seconds as the first weaker humans, living in the Drake headquarters, died by freezing to death.
Most descendants and disciples of the Drake family survived as they were close to more powerful beings who enveloped them with thick mana membranes to protect themselves and the surrounding humans.
Shocked by their sight, they could barely act in time as they rushed towards the family’s underground shelter in order to protect the weaker, as the Ice Dragon mother landed on the large pagoda.
After making a pact with Shane to emerge out of the rift where she was stuck for the last 20 years, she was full of wrath towards the Drake family who abducted her baby.
As such she shattered everything in her surroundings which belonged to this spiteful family without caring who was innocent or guilty.
In her opinion, everyone who colluded with this family was guilty and only because she was forced to refrain from destroying the whole Drake family kingdom through the soul contract she formed with Shane, did she only destroy the headquarters.
She was also forbidden to attack others who didn’t attack her first when everything was about to be over which she only reluctantly accepted.
However, in order to rescue her small baby, she would do everything and at least she was able to destroy the Drake family on her search for her baby.
Intensifying the blizzard’s might, everything around her was frozen, while even humans at the Lord stage had problems protecting themselves, let alone others.
Now that they were also forced to enter the underground shelter that was the only secure place for now, the Ice Dragon mother that looked like a gigantic lizard with humongous wings on her back perceived stronger mana fluctuations appearing around her.
Her strength was comparable to a Mid-Monarch rank beast, which was nothing special for an Ice Dragon, and on her side of the rift, she was seen as a rather weak Dragon with a lower bloodline.
This was also the reason for her to live near the rift which led to her egg being stolen and now that she emerged in Canir, she finally noticed that she was not the weakest.
Nevertheless, even if it was exciting for the Ice Dragon mother to feel like she was strong compared to others, her goal was still the same and she would do everything if she could just retrieve her small baby.
Several sovereign ranks suddenly approached her, yet she fought against them without any issue.
They were extremely weak compared to her current weakened state which was weird, but rather than being displeased, the Ice Dragon mother exterminated the sovereign ranks mercilessly.
Extending her mana fluctuations she searched for her offspring, only to roar out in shock when familiar mana fluctuations appeared in her range.
It was the man’s mana fluctuations who abducted her egg intertwined with her eggs mana fluctuations!?!
Still not being able to realize what was going on, the Ice Dragon mother could only see Jael Drake flying towards her, his face full of anger, as a colossal-sized sky blue magic circle appeared on the ground, within an Ice Dragon that was smaller than the Ice Dragon mother emerged from it.
Smiling cruelly, Jael who was full of anger could barely feel pleased by the sight of mother and daughter reuniting, as he ordered his soulbond
“ATTACK HER!”
The Drake family patriarch’s soul world shook violently as his soulbond tried to reject the order only for it to be forced into submission through the soulbond contract.
With thick tears pouring down the smaller Ice Dragon’s cheeks, it roared out as a warning as she swung with her wings, to ascend in the air where her mother was already waiting for her baby.
However, what the Ice Dragon mother didn’t expect, was to be attacked by her own flesh and blood with several more sovereign ranks supporting her attack.
