Chapter 240 They can't see me!

While the Fler's didn't seem to care about the appearance of the Drake family patriarch, because they were occupied with searching for the necessary ingredients in order to concoct the evolution solution, Jason was curious about the patriarch's strength and if he was stronger than Shane.

Furthermore, he also wanted to know how strong the group following the patriarch was, however, that wouldn't mean that Jason wanted to rush mindlessly towards Old Drake in order to satiate his curiosity.

There were too many uncertain factors, he had to calculate and in the end, it was useless to figure it out.

What was the use of him knowing if Shane or the Drake family patriarch was stronger?

Shane was not here, and even seriously injured and there was no way for him to do anything if something were to happen.

As such, Jason decided to mind his own business.

Taking out a bunch of mana stones within his small room, he absorbed and refined the mana within, only to stop in order to practice the Heaven's Hell technique, as another day passed.

It was Tuesday, but there were still no news from school, when it would start again or what exactly would happen to the Big-Three tournament, which didn't really interest Jason.

In a few hours the sun would rise, as Jason took out a few high nutrition dishes, he purchased in a bulk online, only to store them within the preservation segment inside his storage device.

Without the mandatory special combat class lessons, Jason was pondering, how he should schedule his time and the most important factor that he should improve, for now, his concoction proficiency and Beast-Creator knowledge.

How should he concoct the beast unsealing evolution solution for Taurus, if he made only two potions until now, while one of them was an inscribing solution?

It would be embarrassing, if he were to lend Greg a huge number of funds, only to damage or destroy them by testing out how to concoct the correct solution.

Without being confident about the whole process, Jason wouldn't dare to start concocting Greg's potion, and as such he would have to practice a lot.

Changing his previous morning blacksmithing period with an alchemy and concocting lesson, everything should work out perfectly and it wouldn't even hinder his practice with the black origin flame.

Rather than that, he would have to be even more careful with his flame's heat while concocting because the temperature range was extremely small if he didn't want to destroy or lessen the herbs' efficiency.

Because it was still early in the morning, Jason couldn't start immediately because he didn't want to wake up everyone.

However, with the high-nutrition dishes already in front of him, he wanted to test out his current strength with both of his soulbonds occupying his mana core, one after another.

Practicing extracting and retracting foreign body parts was extremely difficult and practice was what he needed the most in order to increase his proficiency and speed to envelop himself with a blue shining exoskeleton or manifesting a long blue stinger out of his coccyx.

After Scorpio finished his evolution, it became more difficult to control everything smoothly, with the biggest reason for it being the large amplification he received.

After his physique was strengthened, Jason's endurance increased consistently and he was now able to increase his strength to the 4th Expert rank with a soulbond occupying his mana core.

However, with Scorpio occupying his mana core, he was already able to reach the 6th Expert rank, which was not something he could handle for now.

As such, Jason was forced to do the exact same as he did with Artemis before.

Restricting the amplification, which would also suppress the perfect fusion.

Jason only noticed this by chance, as he perceived the vast difference when Artemis occupied his mana core.

His physique and mana core size were amplified to the 3rd Expert rank, without the need to suppress anything and it was much easier for both Jason and Artemis to manifest Artemis' wings on his back, within several moments.

The connection between them was not capped or suppressed at all and with this information, Jason had to change his overall plans slightly.

Increasing his mana core rank became an even more important goal, he had to prioritize.

When everyone was up, they ate together and Jason was about to tell the Fler's that he wanted to build a small space to learn alchemy as the mysterious beast-creator advised him, when he received a call.

It was Till and answering the call, Jason figured out that the Drake patriarch and his small group wanted to meet him in order to figure out more information about the incident with the foreign races.

In order to calm down Jason, who already began to worry, Till explained that Max and Seron were also there.

Apparently, the Drake family patriarch already figured out about Shane's existence, who was not very pleased to hear that a Shane hide on Astrix.

However, because Shane saved Cyro City from total devastation, he wouldn't further investigate it, according to Till's Intel.

In the end, that was only what he said and without a soul contract, preventing anyone from lying about certain subjects, nobody could be sure about the exact truth because lying was something humans were proficient in.

After hearing what the Drake family patriarch said, Jason felt that it was suspicious, but if he were to reject the patriarch's invitation, it would only be even more suspicious, which he wanted to prevent in any way.

It was already weird for a nobody like him to be next to Seron and Max, who were protected by Shane, Dalia, and Till at the same time, as they were the most powerful beings on Astrix island at that time.

Without wanting to be suspicious or attract unwanted attention, Jason could only helplessly accept the invitation, and Till told him that he would come over soon to bring him to the patriarch.

'What a hassle' Jason thought inwardly frowning lightly while trying to remember what exactly happened at that time and what to say, if weird, personal questions were to come up.

Explaining the Fler's the rough situation, they could only nod, as Jason walked out of the house, only to see Till diving towards him, as his wings flapped vigorously.

Greeting each other, Till picked him up, as they ascended into the sky.

Looking around, Jason felt that he should try flying around with Artemis wings manifested.

At least in the future, without anyone being able to bother him, about how it was possible for a 14-years old youth to have established a fortified soul conjunction.

Considering that he could already utilize her complete strength as a fortified soul conjunction, inside his mana core, it should be possible for him to fly, or at least hover for a short time.

Inside his own world, Jason couldn't even hear what Till said, and only when he heard something particular, he involuntarily trembled as he shouted out

"WHAT DID YOU SAY?!?!

" Trying to overwhelm the wind pressure with his voice, while his body continued to shiver, without him being able to stop.

Till looked down towards him as he repeated the exact same words again, as Jason's eyes widened, as he tried his best to meander out of Till's grasp, with a deep sensation of fear igniting within him.

"Let me go!!

" Jason shouted out loud, confusing Till even more, as he slowed down his pace, to look more clearly at Jason who still tried to get out of his firm grasp.

"What is wrong with you?!? I just told you that the Ganasia and Deepsea scion race will most likely arrive today in order to take back their brethren's corpses ...It's not like they will attack the city again….Don't you know that they are extremely conservative and traditional with their deceased? There were already several similar incidents and the foreign races never attacked us when they came to get the corpses…

"

Jason's eyes suddenly began to shine brightly, calming him down to a certain degree, which didn't mean that the fear within him extinguished as he blurted out.

"They can't see me!! Otherwise, Cyro city might as well be destroyed!!

Of course, he couldn't be sure of this assumption, but in the end, the Shadow walker was firm in his action to kill the other envoys in order to prevent anyone from figuring out Jason's existence.

As such, it might as well be possible that the Ganasia and Deepsea scion would do the same once they saw him, which would mean that they would try to kill each other in order to prevent the other party from leaking the secret.

But Jason's fear came more from the possibility that these two races ignored the danger, which held back the Shadow walker from abducting him, causing them to abduct him in order to experiment with him.

Everything was possible and either of the possibilities was extremely bad, causing him to try everything to writhe out of Till's grasp.

Till meanwhile, was still extremely confused, but seeing his desperate attempt to escape only to prevent the foreign races from seeing him, even if they were currently high in the sky, which would mean the youth's death, made him realize the seriousness of Jason's words.
