God's Eyes

Chapter 378: Why is that thing here?

It took them almost half a day to leave the underground, maze-like cave and everyone was glad when they were able to breathe fresh air again.

On their way outside, Jason noticed that there were still fighting beasts in the surrounding area of the exposed mana vein.

This told him that his plan to look for a branch of the mana vein had been the most reliable because they didn't encounter a single group of beasts.

Thanks to that, everyone was able to focus on becoming stronger without being distracted.

The moment they had stepped through the illusion rune, a pure white magic circle manifested on the ground as Artemis emerged out of it.

Soaring into the air Jason was able to sense her joy which caused him to smile.

"Where are you going first?" Isga asked, curious about which cursed beast Jason wanted to search for first.

This was something Jason was pondering about too.

On one side he was sure that the Debilitation Centaur's curse, which would decrease his soul world's amplification by 10, was too weak.

However, on the other hand, there was also the point that Isga said that the Debilitation Centaur's curse depended on the targeted being's race.

This was the same curse the petrification serpent had, only that the Debilitation Centaur's curse should be considered a lower-ranked curse.

From what Jason perceived when he saw that the petrification serpent weakened Suo and his team with its curse it was impossible to be a simple 10% decrease in one's soul amplification!

It might be a race occurrence with normal soul awakenings but Jason doubted that the prodigies around Suo had all a soul world amplification of 10%.

This was if one were to consider that the average of a soul world amplification was between 5% to 10%.

In that case, one might think that not many would have a soul world amplification above 10% but the average for prodigies was slightly different because their soul-awakening was on average better than that of others.

With parents from big families that had high-graded Soul-awakenings, descendants were more likely to receive strong soul worlds too!

As such the normal soul world amplification for prodigies was likely to be between 8% to 15%

Most prodigies with a soul world amplification of 15% had either a four-star soul-awakening or maybe even 4.5 stars.

Jason hadn't heard of anyone with a five-star soul-awakening yet, except the one from the fairy tale Dalia had told him.

He had yet to meet someone with such a high soul-weakening ranking by himself!

However, without a strong mana aptitude, even the best soul-awakening would end up disastrous.

Jason had a superior mana aptitude but even he had problems thanks to his soul awakening.

His vessel was not enlarging and being reinforced as fast as he could bind a new soulbond!

This was problematic and the reason for this was either that his soul world amplification was too high or that his mana absorption was not on par with his soul awakening!

Jason didn't think that the latter was the case because he hailed from a foreign race.

Furthermore, the Celestia race seemed to be feared by other foreign races too!

As such his mana absorption rate should be much higher than it currently was.

If he were to be able to absorb more mana than nature was releasing, he would still not be enough to be on par with foreign races.

Argos was a just new planet that had awoken its mana, and it was still weak, slowly becoming stronger with each year passing.

This told Jason that the other existing planets had much more mana than humans had, which made everything just worse.

His train of thought was focused on escaping Argos and he was already thinking of the big picture.

This caused him to wonder why his mana absorption was so weak.

If someone else were to hear Jason's thoughts, they would either try to beat him up or cry in the corner of a room.

However, Jason's thinking was already in a completely different league than others'.

He might be weaker than the majority of clans and families, but his advancement speed was faster than theirs!

As long as he had everything under control and his soul world amplification was adjusted, Jason was confident to become stronger at a rapid pace.

The only thing he required was time.

Right now he had enough of that, but who could reassure him that this wouldn't change?

Nobody!

This meant that Jason had to become stronger as fast as possible.

There might be times when he had some peace but to maintain this state one would have to work hard!

After he told Isga and Milan that he would go to the flatlands inside the Mythic Garden, where the Debilitation Centaurs' habitat was, they bid each other farewell before they took their own paths towards their designated goal.

Only five minutes after they separated, Jason had ordered Artemis and Scorpio to enter his soul world.

While Artemis entered his mana core, he took out the pitch-black mask which he had already cleaned.

Putting on the mask, he manifested Artemis' wings on his back before she ascended in the air.

His altitude remained low but flying through the air was much faster than running, even more so after he and Artemis strengthened each other.

Artemis was only at the peak Unblemished rank and Jason's mana core size was at the peak-Master rank, however, once Artemis entered his mana core, they strengthened each other.

This strengthened Artemis' wings allowing Jason with Artemis' wings manifested to be slightly faster than Artemis could fly.

At least if their weight had been the same as Artemis' which was unfortunately not the case.

Artemis was still lighter than Jason, even in her enlarged form.

This meant that the speed plummeted slightly.

Nevertheless, Jason was still much faster compared to running through the forest with the weightless steps technique exerted.

Furthermore, there were no beasts he could see all around him.

Every single time his mana eyes perceived something he changed his altitude which was enough to avoid other beasts that were unable to sense his minuscule mana fluctuations.

Being able to conceal his mana core was one of the most efficient techniques mankind created and Jason was still wondering if mankind made their own techniques by adjusting foreign race techniques.

At least that was what he imagined after thinking about the mind splitting and concealment technique.

They were so powerful, yet, created by mankind which was something one would never expect from a race living on a newly mana awakened planet.

While Jason was suspicious about these two techniques, the Heaven's Hell technique was something else.

Other races couldn't even bind beasts which was exactly what made mankind such a valuable resource for those foreign races.

As such, mankind couldn't have adjusted a foreign race's technique to increase one's soul energy because something like that shouldn't exist in the first place!

While he was deep in thoughts, Jason had already left the reclusive area of the Mythic Garden. He could simply fly in-between two small hills, passing devilish mountain goats that targeted him with their curse before manifesting several hundred icicles which they shot at him.

Their curse was not strong, but he was still baffled as he used a large margin of mana to erect a shield out of black flames half a meter behind him.

This protected him from the majority of attacks, and the other icicles didn't hit him.

After this incident had occured he continued to fly away, ignoring the devilish mountain goats which one couldn't see within the thick snow layers.

Jason continued to fly for a few more hours before the curse he was targeted with had worn off.

He was not even sure what kind of curse the devilish mountain goats harbored, and the only reason Jason could think about was that his mana eyes used up a small margin of mana to negate the curse he received.

This told Jason that it was most likely a curse about one's mind or emotions. These were the only options he could tell because he didn't know anything else which would trigger his mana eye's passive negating ability.

When he had entered the flatlands, he found many flying beasts in the sky which forced him to descend to the ground.

From the looks of it, he would be more secure on the ground.

At least as long as he was inside the flatlands.

Searching for the Debilitation Centaurs' shouldn't be too difficult because Isga told him that they were a large horde of them.

As such he started to look out for them with expectations filling his mind.

It was only half an hour later that he saw a large horde of horses that had a humanoid upper body rushing towards him.

This made him almost exclaim in joy until he saw something he never expected to see in the flatlands.

"Why the hell is that thing here??"
