Chapter 469 – [Bonus ]Why Is All Of This Happening…
[Author note: Thanks for everyone's support! Let's enter the top 10 of the golden ticket ranking ;D]
Jason was not sure how much time had passed, but he woke up in a soft bed.
Opening his eyes, one could see traces a dark-crimson color mixed within the former golden-silverish eyes.
He could barely lift his arm that was extremely heavy, and only by feeling his sore body and mana veins that were almost bursting apart did Jason realize that the memories he recalled were not a nightmare but reality!
A faint calming fragrance permeated the room, but Jason's expression remained stiff without showing any emotions.
Without waiting too long, he got out of the bed, only to notice that his entire body was bandaged and rubbed in some sort of ointment.
It was uncomfortable to move, but Jason simply disregarded the soreness and aching within his body.
His mind was solely focused on his masters and that they had died in front of his eyes.
'I was not strong enough…again…' He simply thought before he left the room he had rested for an unknown amount of time.
Jason did not even realize where he was and the only thing he cared about was to see his masters body.
He had yet to bid them farewell, only to notice that his sight blurred.
Tears began to pour down his cheeks while his facial expression remained stoic, unmoving as if he was emotionless, only showing his sadness by crying.
Others who saw Jason wanted to approach him in order to figure out what he was doing outside his chamber with lethal injuries as he had, only to be held back by other, more sensible people.
Not even Yune, Milan, or Isga, who had seen him, dared to approach him.
Since he had lost Scorpio, Jason had already changed. He had distanced himself from them, fearing that he might get too close to them, only to lose even more people would hold dearly!
Isga's parents were still alive, and the same applied for Yune's and Milan's.
Though they had been heavily injured, they barely survived thanks to the unknown halo that released a mixture between a golden, silver, and dark-crimson color that had weakened the Burane race assassins!
After that, an unknown race's embassy had appeared and nobody knew what was going on.
Yet, the Ariyor race was extremely respectful to them, thus the new race that had called themselves Elvyr had to be strong.
Apparently, the Elvyr race was on good terms with the Ariyor race too!
This was everything that counted because they couldn't face another strong race, even less in their current state that had been weakened drastically!
The Argos alliance's morale had hit rock bottom and hope was too far away to grasp.
Meanwhile, Jason followed his instincts and what his mana eyes showed him in a detailed manner to walk ahead.
In the end, he had reached a small graveyard that was decorated with the big clans' utmost efforts in order to honor those that had been assassinated by the Burane race.
It looked beautiful despite the conditions the Argos alliance was currently in, but Jason couldn't help but feel reluctant as he found the last traces of his masters' familiar mana fluctuations below the graveyard that had their names written on them.
He was still unable to believe that they had died, and it was only when he sensed a hand on his shoulder that Jason looked up.
It was Emily, whom Dalia had taken in as her family and disciple.
Jason hadn't thought about Emily for a single second and it was only now that he saw her ragged appearance.
She seemed to have been crying for several days as Jason asked weakly.
"How long have I been unconscious?"
Emily was not sure how she was feeling right now. She had nobody left except her soulbond after her master had died, while Jason had fallen into a hibernation-like state.
Was she angry at Jason? No…It was not his fault… He had almost sacrificed his life, trying to rescue both Shane and Dalia too
She was just sad about her own weakness and the fact that she had been unable to help her master and Shane during the most crucial time when they would have needed help for the first time!
Instead of helping, she had been more like a burden.
Shane had barely been able to manifest a spatial portal to teleport Emily outside the tent, as far as possible from the most dangerous area just before the Burane race's assassin had sealed the surrounding space!
As such, Emily felt chained by her own guilt.
This was not only because of her master and Shane but also because Jason had almost sacrificed his own life in order to save his masters, while she had been unable to do anything.
Rather, she had stiffened the moment the Blood eclipse, how everyone called the Burane race's assassination, had occurred.
Emily had been unable to move or do anything, and the strength she had accumulated to help Jason and her master were rendered useless, insignificant in the face of the foreign race's attack.
Thus, she had lived in seclusion for the last month, without meeting anyone, only relying on the Lesser typhoon roc.
Yet, something unexpected had happened to her because of her soulbond.
In the end, what had happened to Emily was not important at the moment as she stared into Jason's emotionless and seemingly dead eyes that scared her owing to the color of his eyes that had changed once again.
"One month….you were asleep for one month…"
After she had said so, Emily took out three spatial rings that had been inside her pockets during the entire last month.
"Take them…The spatial rings have all the belongings from Shane, Dalia, and the assassin from the Burane race you've killed…"
Under normal circumstances, Emily had the right to receive a part of Dalia's belongings because she was her disciple too.
But she didn't even think about taking something as everything should be given to Jason.
She didn't even deserve anything because the only thing Emily had done was wasting precious resources and time which Jason could have spent with his masters!
'One month…' Jason thought, not caring about anything else Emily had just said.
His legs were still shaky and he had yet to recuperate from the internal injuries caused by forcefully unleashing his bloodline.
However, instead of thinking about the future, what would happen to Argos and mankind, Jason could only think of the past and what had happened right before the Blood eclispe.
Jason had focused on becoming stronger every single day, yet it had been worthless because he couldn't save those that had been important to him.
There was always something stronger than Jason was and incident after incident occurred since he had gained his eyesight.
"Why is all of that happening…" Jason mumbled as sadness overcame him.
Scorpio was dead, his master now too…who else would die???
His mind turned blank and he mindlessly stared at his masters' graves in front of him.
Meanwhile, Emily pushed the three spatial rings into Jason's hand that grasped them subconsciously.
Afterward, she remained silent and waited for Jason to finish bidding his last farewell to his masters.
It was cruel, but she knew that there were people waiting for Jason.
Not only his friends, or Fasro and his siblings from the Ariyor race, but also the embassy of the Elvyr race!
According to one of the Elvyr that had learned the human language in two days, they had come to this meager planet because of none other than Jason!
