Chapter 452 - Desperation
Chapter 452 – Desperation
If Till had been unable to sense Jason's mana fluctuations, he wouldn't have recognized him at all!
It seemed as if everything about Jason had changed.
Except for his mana fluctuations, only the golden-colored eyes that were mixed with a little bit silver were similar to how he had looked before.
Nevertheless, Till Greil couldn't help but dive towards Jason before he disintegrated the wings on his back as he hesitantly asked
"You…are Jason, right?"
When Jason heard this, he couldn't help but smile as he said
"Obviously, I'm Jason! Who else could I be? How are you doing, and where is Seron? Is everything fine with him and his family too?"
Till was glad that it was really Jason, who stood in front of him, however, the question he was asking caused him to ponder for a moment.
"You can already see that I'm alive, but that's everything I can proudly say…the whole clan seems to be on the brink of destruction and not even the Lyran race is able to overcome the attack of the small four-race alliance!
About Seron, he shouldn't have too many problems, and it would be weird if he were dead. The Gier family told him to return right before the war broke out, but I haven't heard any bad news about the Gier clan!
Rather than that, they seem to have established a large army with all human powerhouses that survived until now!
Are you with the Shaibi clan? Shane should be here too then! He should be careful with the Drake clan! They're becoming crueler the more time passes… it's just disgusting!"
Jason had heard about the Gier family's army, but he hadn't been sure about Seron's whereabouts at that time.
However, when he heard Till's warning against the Drake family, his lips twitched.
"Jael Drake has already visited the Shandra country once and knows that Shane is not only alive but also that he has killed Old Drake…"
Till's eyes widened for a moment before he mumbled
"That's bad…the Drake clan and Myöldra race are not to be taken lightly…"
Only a moment later he said with little confidence
"I shouldn't worry too much, Shane will be fine…but I would like to meet and talk with him if possible"
Jason could tell that Till tried to hide something from him, but instead of pressuring him to tell him everything, Jason remained silent.
He just nodded his head and summoned Artemis' wings before he soared into the air to fly towards Shane and Fasro.
Till followed him without hesitation while thinking that something about Jason had changed.
'His whole demeanor is different compared to two years ago! Did he lose his youthfulness or did something else happen to him?'
It was not uncommon for someone to change, even less if one was thrown into a war with multiple foreign races that tried to reign over mankind.
In the end, the human race was only seen as a tool to become stronger and everyone whether one was young or old, strong or weak, began to understand this!
Humanity was just too weak!!
Nevertheless, when Till inspected Jason's mana core, he couldn't help but feel shocked as he exclaimed
"There are 20 drops of liquefied mana within your mana core!! Aren't you just 16 years old..maybe a few months older??"
Even though Jason would have felt proud under normal circumstances, he couldn't help but think that he was still not strong enough.
Otherwise, Scorpio wouldn't have to sacrifice his life to save him!
"It's still not enough" Jason thus answered, and Till noticed a glint of sorrow within Jason's eyes.
As such he decided that it was better to stay silent instead of saying something wrong if he had not already done that!
Once Jason had brought Till to Shane, who stood next to the Greil family patriarch, one of the strongest Lyran and Fasro, he wanted to leave.
However, Fasro and Shane told him that he should listen to everything which caused the Lyran and Greil family patriarch to eye him.
"I don't think it is necessary for someone as weak as this young human to listen to our important discussion" The Lyran said, and Jason could tell that he had something against humans or just him as a person.
Yet, instead of telling Jason that he should leave as the Greil patriarch and Lyran were expecting, Fasro turned to the Lyran as he said
"I think you should apologize! Without this 'weak and young human' you and every other Lyran, no less human would be dead by now! He proposed to save all of you after all!"
Jason acted as if he was not listening, but he couldn't help but think that Fasro was exaggerating the facts a little bit.
Nevertheless, both the Lyran and Greil patriarch understood the meaning behind Fasro's words and turned quiet.
They didn't thank Jason, but he could tell that their view of him had changed within a single moment.
After that they had released their mana fluctuations in order to figure out more about his strength, only to see that he had barely 20 drops of liquefied mana within his mana core.
"Weak…as expected.." The Lyran mumbled subconsciously, while the Greil patriarch's reaction was the complete opposite as he exclaimed.
"How old are you???"
Till, who had already occupied Shane in order to talk with him heard his ancestor exclaiming which caused a faint smile to emerge on his lips as he said
"He is not even 17 years old!"
The Greil patriarch eyed Jason in shock and was about to say something, when Jason's mana eyes perceived strong mana ripples.
His calm demeanor changed within a single moment, and he supplied more mana into his eyes as he saw that someone within the crowd of injured and exhausted humans took out something from his spatial ring.
Only a moment later Jason sensed an astronomical amount of mana surging into the item that had been taken out, supplemented by the surrounding mana stones which the middle-aged man had taken out.
It was a rocket launcher, with terrific impact!
The sheer amount of mana that was compressed within the rocket launcher was shocking, but the moment Jason had noticed that something was wrong he had already ordered Solaris' to help him create compressed, high-temperature flames in front of every single finger of his hands.
At the same time, he had already created ten threads of mana which he led to each finger.
He even ignored his injured hand that had barely started to heal after he had gulped down several potions and spread a healing solution over it.
It was unknown whether the others could react fast enough, but Jason was sure that he was the first one to notice that something was wrong as his mana eyes made this possible.
The others had only been astonished when Jason's demeanor changed suddenly, only to notice a middle-aged man behind them cried out.
"CAN'T YOU FOREIGN RACES LEAVE US ALONEE????"
It was a cry in despair which was something, every citizen felt in the recent era of death and war.
However, uncommon was the fact that everyone sensed a sudden, enormous amount of mana gathering at one place as Jason pushed aside Fasro, who was targeted by the middle-aged man that had begun to cry when he pulled the trigger.
There was no time for Jason to wonder what was going on because the ammunition within the rocket launcher that was filled with the entire gathered mana had been released at once.
"Oh F*ck!!" He could barely exclaim, when he instinctively unleashed his stigma and Celestia aura, knowing that it would be impossible to face the rocket that shot towards him at a shockingly high velocity.
At that moment, Artemis transferred every trace of mana towards Jason, while Solaris made use of it!
Just a second later, Jason lifted his hands to the height of his chest and the moment his wrists came in touch with each other, he fired 10 compressed black fire bullets at once.
Suddenly, without him realizing it, a huge black flame shell had formed within the palms of his hands.
It was shot towards the rocket as a huge explosion and the devastation of the surrounding followed suit.
