God's Eyes

Chapter 563 - Chaos Attribute



Jason was oblivious to the conversation that happened far away from him and was simply focused on his own situation.

He was not exactly sure what was going on, but the pressure he released felt weird, similar to the time when he had received the Celestia aura without having accepted it then.

However, contrary to that time, there was something in the pressure he was releasing, which shouldn't be inside.

Time had passed slowly and it was only when he opened his eyes that Jason realized that the second round was long since over.

Being the only one left inside the deactivated magic circle, he stood up before walking in the direction in which he sensed the God's Children to be.

It was only then that they noticed the eerie silence around him as everyone was staring at him.

Whether it were the spectators, the other participants, or the Olympus federation's higher-ups, he was the center of attention.

This was uncomfortable for him and Jason took some time to realize that he was still subconsciously releasing the chaos attributed pressure..

It drained him of his energy and Jason couldn't help but feel hungry as the pressure was pulled back into his body.

Taking out a few preservable dishes, he devoured them hungrily while ignoring the surrounding stares.

His train of thoughts lingered around the sensation he had felt earlier because it was something new, and extremely dangerous. Jason knew that he couldn't control any of it yet.

The pressure itself was not the problem and Jason realized that he would be able to control it once he had digested the absorbed information.

It shouldn't be that problematic to radiate faint pressure without the use of mana, but it was a different matter altogether for distinct and attributed pressure!

Jason hadn't even learned anything detailed about normal pressure that was intertwined with mana. 

Currently, his memories and what he had sensed was not enough to suddenly release something with an attribute he had never encountered, to begin with.

In fact, it was only because Jason had heard someone talking about his pressure being intertwined with the chaos attribute that he knew what attributes his body had released.

The unknown made Jason more uncomfortable than knowing that something with his body might be wrong that could turn terrifying and might as well mean his death sentence.

At least, he would know that something was going on, and could search for a solution!

However, nothing seemed to be wrong with his body, and the Chaos attribute neither harmed him nor was it something that felt as if it belonged to him.

After he had stopped releasing the pressure that had been easy to control, Jason felt how his body was slowly more exhausted and tiredness overwhelmed him.

Unfortunately, he couldn't simply sleep right now because Betty, who had been the first to recover from the shock of seeing Jason achieve yet another spectacular feat, had told him that the first combat rounds would start soon.

As such, he would have to fight at least one opponent before he could rest for a few hours.

The liberation tournament was not only held to determine the strongest prodigy of the new generation, but also to entertain the citizens of the Olympus federation.

This was also the reason why everything had been recorded with the help of a recording device that streamed it on the small crystalline devices every citizen of the Olympus federation had.

Because of that, Jason got an idea.

'If everything was recorded, I should be able to rewatch what happened after I focused on comprehending the surrounding pressure!'

With that thought in mind, he looked out for Jarid as he was one of the few people he knew out of the small batch of remaining participants.

That was if he were to leave out the God's Children because they didn't have the device he was looking for!

What Jason hadn't realized until now was that every single member of the God's Children had passed the second round while the total number of participants who had made it through was now just 1200!

This was extremely good, and even if they were to be defeated in the first combat round by being matched against the strongest combatants, it shouldn't be that bad.

There were several thousand participants hailed as prodigies who had failed in the second wound miserably. 

Contrary to them, the human race's embassy had fared well so they had gained some attention from the surrounding.

Overcoming the first round was something the human race was ought to pass owing to their soul worlds and the intel the Olympus federation had known about.

However, the second round was solely based on one's determination and will to advance further in the liberation tournament and to face stronger opponents.

Fortunately, the God's Children had received lessons not just focussing on the body but also the mind since a young age. 

This was something almost every prodigy who had awoken their mana senses at a young age had received, as they were likely to become future prodigies as long as their soul-awakening was not catastrophic!

Jason hadn't received these lessons, but his obstacles had been different as well as his path had been unique.

Because of that, neither the God's Children nor the human powerhouses had doubted that Jason would advance to the third round.

Nevertheless, the pressure he had released without utilizing a single trace of mana was something that had caused them to feel suspicious.

'Is that something he learned from his other race, or he already knew how to release pressure without mana? But then...why is there the chaos attribute? Is he hiding another soulbond from us?'

All kinds of questions raked through the minds of humans around him, but even Jason wouldn't be able to answer their unspoken questions as he himself had no idea as to what had been going on!

It was time for the first combat round to begin, and they were only waiting for one specific person to return, which caused Jason to look in the direction in which Wisse had been seated before.

Since the beginning, Jason had known that Wisse was special and definitely not someone who should have been on Argos.

Yet, because nobody else seemed to bother about it, he decided to remain silent about it too.

Apparently, he was the liberation tournament's guest and when Jason had finally found Jarid, he wanted to ask him about that as well.

That was after he received the card-shaped device to figure out something!

"You need my Hologra because you want to watch the second decimator round?...Fine, but to be honest, did you hold back during our fight?"

Jarid had been as astonished as everyone else when Jason had suddenly begun to radiate a distinct pressure.

However, he had been able to stay relatively calm while facing Jason, only to look at him with disappointment, thinking that he had been too weak to force Jason to give his all.

"That's not it. I have simply no idea what this pressure was. By the way, who is that guest? Nobody seems to care about him!" 

Jason saw that Wisse had returned, and seated himself on his chair. Thus, he had asked the question while pointed towards him, making Jarid turn around.

At that moment, Jason and Wisse's eyes met which greatly shocked Jarid as his eyes grew wide as saucers.

"Don't look into his eyes!!" Jarid exclaimed as he turned Jason's head around to face himself. Then, he quietly added, "This time the dragonoid guest is quite unique, and he has a big temper!!"

Jason didn't understand what Jarid wanted to say, but he could only respond,

"What kind of bulllshit are you talking about? He is more of a true dragon than anything else, what dragonoid?!?"
