Chapter 574 - Experiment
Chapter 574 – Experiment
Jason had assumed that Jarid was related to Old Sadran, who was among the strongest beings in the Olympus federation, but he couldn't be sure about that before.
Now he knew, but instead of saying too much, Jason brushed off Jarid's question before he turned away. He was about to walk to the others when he heard Jarid/Jason ask a question.
"It's not as if it changes anything, right?"
Jason's words could be interpreted in many ways, but Jarid simply smiled before he nodded his head.
"That's good! I might not be able to fight with you against the others but I can give you one tip.
Pay attention to the dragonewts and Klarir, they're likely to focus on you tomorrow!"
Nodding his head, Jason walked back to the God's children who were currently talking about the opponents they would have to fight the day after.
Apparently, every group had a few strong individuals, but almost every member of Jason's battle royale group was a prodigy.
It was as if the Olympus federation wanted to focus on him while allowing the other prodigies to fight with each other, pre-determining the winner of the liberation tournament.
If his perception was not wrong, his group's battle royale should be the deciding factor on who would win the tournament as the most prodigious participants were gathered in one group.
This was annoying and at the same time, extremely exciting for Jason, who was eager to fight strong opponents.
He knew that tomorrow's battle royale was the most important as the other opponents that would come out victorious of the remaining battle royales were unlikely to turn into a challenge which was somewhat ridiculous.
'To think that Olympus federation ignores the liberation tournaments' rules just to throw all prodigies at me…if that's really the case, they're definitely afraid of me!'
Jason was not sure if he was overestimating himself to think that the government cared about him so much, or his guess was spot-on.
In the end, it didn't matter and he and the God's children returned to Merl Arths and the other human powerhouses before they left the colosseum.
Returning to the training hall that also had a dorm where they could rest, Jason went to sleep, not wasting anymore time that would prevent him from recuperating from his exhaustion.
The day had been long and it was finally time for him to rest, without anyone bothering him.
His mind was at peace and he slept for half a day before he woke up.
Jason was fully energized and his mana core filled to the brim as he got out of the bed.
He didn't even think about the soul fraction within his body, because his mind was occupied with the facts that it might be possible for him to terminate the Flers' soul contract, Wisse's interest in him, or the way the Olympus federation tweaked the tournament rules to out him and the God's children at a huge disadvantage!
After washing up, Jason went inside the kitchen to look if there was something to eat but noticed that they hadn't been provided with food.
As such, he had to take out dishes from his spatial ring which he ate without any complaints.
Through the Emperor Eyes Jason noticed that the others were already awake and he walked towards them, only to see that they were analyzing all kinds of information they had obtained from the tournament management.
Unfortunately, they had been unable to read much as their universal language skills were still not up to the mark.
Because of that, they had been eagerly waiting for Jason to wake up and help them understand. Hence, they almost pounced upon him when he entered the training hall.
There were still a few hours left before the first battle royale would start and Jason wanted to test out a few things with his soul world and the soulbond contract, but he was interrupted by the God's children pleading with him to help them.
Initially, he'd wanted to reject them, but then an idea flashed into his mind!
Clearing his throat, he gave them a sly smile before putting on a serious expression and telling the God's children that something bad was about to happen.
Their eyes went wide at his words and a few of them gulped nervously, wanting to retreat and leave Jason alone. However, his next words made them feel like beating Jason into a pulp, ignoring the fact that he had become stronger than any of them!
That was how ridiculous Jason's words sounded.
"I can help you guys, but I need your help too! Can one of you guys make an enslavement soul pact with anyone, except me? I want to test if it's possible to terminate an enslavement contract by binding the enslaved being with a soulbond contract! I will terminate the soulbond contract the moment I figure out the truth!"
Jason knew that it sounded ridiculous, but he wanted to figure out if his approach to save the Flers was correct.
As such, he was straightforward with his friends who looked at him as if he was insane.
"Jason..are you sure you're fine? We should probably search for Merl…maybe he can take Jason to the medics…"
It was Tom who said this worriedly. Meanwhile, Betty stared at Jason with squinted eyes.
She was sure that Jason was not playing around, but that made everything even more ridiculous.
This was also the reason why Tom thought Jason was suffering from some mental health issues due to the day before where many unbelievable things had happened.
However, Jason was adamant in his request.
"Don't you guys trust each other? I doubt anyone here would accept being someone else's slave under normal conditions and that's not what I want either.
I just need to test something out..it's very important to me…but if you guys feel uncomfortable with that, it's fine too. I can just wait before we return where I can test this out with some humans who are still enslaved.
Obviously, I can still help you guys with the translations."
The God's children didn't know a lot about Jason, and they could tell that he himself was unsure about his identity, at least to some extent.
However, hearing that there was something extremely important Jason had to figure out made the others feel intrigued.
Because of that Betty said
"If you tell me the reason why you want to test…this weird experiment without beating around the bush, or at least provide a short summary, I might help you."
She didn't promise anything because it was evident how dangerous it could be to enter an enslavement soul pact, let alone turn into someone else's soulbond.
The latter was something that had already been tested out sparingly before, simply because it was too disadvantageous.
Binding another human with a soul world to one's own soul could lead to repulsive reactions, destroying both souls, and this could work only if the soul contractor had a dominant soul world.
In the end, the benefits of binding another human were negligible too, because they didn't amplify the soul contractor's strength which could be used as a means to find a loophole within the soul world.
Jason was likely to have a dominant soul world and none of the God's Children doubted this because Jason had once shown a part of his soul world to them.
As such, they knew what kind of miraculous existence Jason's soul world was.
Though this did not completely negate all the dangers, as long as Jason terminated the soulbond contract after terminating the enslavement soul pact everything should be fine.
Somehow, Betty felt intrigued about this and the others couldn't help but feel that the insane idea held some merit.
Seeing this, Jason decided to tell his friends everything about the Flers, in addition to what had happened on Astrix after he had left the place.
The God's children were independent forces and had no ties to the Drake clan which was the reason Jason spoke freely.
He knew that his chances of receiving their help would increase after telling them the entire truth without holding anything back.
Because of that, he felt even better. As he narrated his story, the others listened intently while Betty revealed her anger towards the Drake clan as she jumped up and cursed,
"This son of a b*tch!!"
