God's Eyes (Web Novel)
chapter-329

Right now, he was unable to start concocting because he was a living torch which would definitely disrupt his task at hand.

As such, he decided to stop everything as he turned around to Dalia who looked at him with lifted eyebrows wondering what he was doing

"I doubt that this is your doing… is something going on with your black origin flame?" She asked, trying to analyze the situation without showing that she was nervous that Jason was going to shock her by revealing something again.

She hoped that it was nothing special and that Jason would stop shocking her and Shane so often because it started to make them jealous.

Furthermore, most things he revealed were rather bad, like the revelation that mankind were ants in the eyes of foreign races and that their planet was considered a small one among an unimaginable number of planets which caused Dalia to fell innately averse to Jason's news.

Scratching the back of his head, Jason said "Apparently this is not the black origin flame's doing and it only tried to tell me that it wants more soul energy. However, it seems that the origin flame can't annex more soul energy and it already established the fortified soul conjunction…"

Looking at Jason, Dalia could only sigh as she said

"Maybe there is something else the black origin flame wants to do with your soul energy?"

'Something else?' He asked himself before he entered his soul world once again.

Carefully inspecting his origin flame that continued to demand soul energy in a restless manner, Jason couldn't find anything odd when it suddenly transmitted him another thought.

'Soul energy...MANA!'

He was still astonished that the origin flame could transmit him thoughts, shortly after they established a fortified soul conjunction.

however, the second thought about 'Mana' was even weirder than the first one in his opinion.

Tilting his head, he couldn't help but sigh as he allowed his black origin flame to use 10 soul energy units to its desire.

However, what he saw afterwards, made him frown deeply because the ten soul energy units the black origin flame loosened were carefully embedded on 10 different positions in their fortified soul conjunction.

They began to glow lightly and other than that, nothing seemed to have changed.

At this moment, he received a call which caused him to leave his soul world to look for who it was.

'Emily? Why is she calling me?' Starting to wonder why Emily was calling him which never happened before, he just accepted the call

"Hello, Emily? Is something wrong with the shop?" He just asked, before Emily started to blurt out

"No No, everything is fine with the shop, but Silas and I heard something from a small group of Slave merchants who came into the shop a few minutes ago.

We didn't understand everything, but it seems that they were talking about a medicine used to increase one's cultivation temporarily.

But that is not everything! As we already assumed, this cultivation medicine is highly addictive.

Other than that they talked about something called Mythic Garden, where they got a certain ingredient to make the addictive cultivation medicine.

I don't know what this Mythic Garden is, but the slave merchants were adamant about hiring people to go there again.

That's already everything... The Golden-Soul shop is doing extremely well too!

I'm not sure if this information was useful but we now know that the rumor about addictive medicine is true! Isn't that great?"

Jason could already imagine that Emily was smiling proudly right now, which caused him to feel weird.

The news he heard was not really great and a huge contrast to the enthusiasm Emily showed him.

Dalia who heard Emily talking was astonished to hear something overly familiar when Jason mumbled

"Mythic Garden? Never heard of that...but it has to be an important place if that place has the ingredients to produce the cultivation drugs!

If it were to be a normal place, mankind would also know more about it...If it's just a garden, maybe foreign races brought seeds or plants to exchange them for something with the Jual clan? However, that is unlikely to be the case if you or Silas understood the slave merchants' intention to go 'there' again, correctly. Otherwise, they might as well ask someone to deliver the ingredients to them!... Could it be something else? Like a dangerous underground zone or maybe even a rift?"

Trying to comprehend what exactly the slave merchant's words indicated, he suddenly heard Dalia behind him mumbling

"It's a rift..."

Turning around, Jason exclaimed

"You know the place called Mythic Garden?"

However, seeing that Dalia looked at him in astonishment, asking

"Did I say something?" Jason couldn't help but stare at his master weirdly.

"You said that it's a rift when I tried to figure out what the Mythic Garden could be!"

He said, trying to remain calm, only to see that Dalia was still looking at him in confusion

"I did?" Suddenly she seemed to remember something important as she jumped up from the chair she sat on.

"I did! The Mythic Garden is a permanent rift which is hidden by the Jual clan!!"

Taken aback by Dalia's sudden behavior, Jason couldn't help but look at her intently.

Emily had already hung up long ago because there were many customers inside the Golden-Soul shop she and Silas had to take care of at the moment.

This allowed Jason to focus on Dalia completely without anyone distracting them as she said.

"I don't know what's going on but Shane and I know what the Mythic Garden is but we can't remember it clearly.

When you said that it was a rift, I could suddenly remember something but now, everything is blurry again! I said that the Mythic Garden is a rift, governed by the Jual clan, right?"

Jason just nodded his head, still not able to fully comprehend what was going on when Dalia said

"Shane read something about the Mythic Garden. It is described as the Land of the Cursed and Blessed which is why we wanted to figure out more about it.

Other than that I can't really say more. Shane was inside the rift once according to his blurry memories but he was young at that time.… I… don't think that I was inside the rift… probably? "

Looking at Dalia who was not sure what else she remembered as Jason said

"My memories are still clear, so there can't be something wrong with the name alone… Curses are said to be versatile and if the description of the Mythic Garden is already so unique with 'cursed and blessed' in it, there might as well be a curse preventing someone from remembering things about the Mythic Garden?"

Dalia's eyes widened when she heard how Jason comprehended Shane and her issue when she remembered that this was the same they comprehended when they were younger.

She was just unable to recall it before, as she exclaimed.

"That's it! The Mythic Garden should have a curse, blurring out memories about its existence and what happened inside...but that would mean that I was also inside? I don't even have blurry memories about being inside the Mythic Garden, yet I can't remember anything about it?!"

Shrugging his shoulders, Jason was not some godly figure who knew everything as he said

"Maybe you were close to the rift and it's the rift's curse? Either way..."

However, before Jason could say anything else, he felt extremely weak as his whole body was drained of mana as he mumbled

"What...is...going on?"

Suddenly he heard the black origin transmitting him the thought 'MANAAAA' several times in succession which led him to enter his soul world, where he saw that his mana was transported to the black origin flame through their newly established fortified conjunction.

'What are you doing?!'
