God's Eyes (Web Novel)
chapter-369

Jason just nodded his head, after Isga had revealed that he was cursed without saying anything else

'So he really is cursed?'

However, after thinking about it for a moment, he was still unable to understand how a curse could become a blessing.

'Was he in a similar situation like I am in right now?'

Seeing how confused Jason was, Isga thought that having bound a cursed beast was nothing he held as a secret.

Furthermore, his prior constitution was also well known. A little bit of research would be enough to find out his situation

As such, he decided to make it a little bit easier for Jason, so that he didn't have to be so confused

"To be honest, my soul-awakening was quite shocking.

On one side I have a double-soul awakening with two large souls which is phenomenal but both souls don't give me a single percentage of my soulbonds' strength.

That means my two soul worlds' amplification is 0%.

As such, my soul awakening was both good and bad at the same time. My father already had the same issue and was deemed useless, however, he made lots of research and it was last year when he told me to enter the Mythic Garden to contract a cursed beast called 'Debilitation Centaur'.

It curses one's soul worlds' amplification, decreasing it by roughly 10%.

However, interesting is the fact that if one reaches a soul world amplification below 0% it stays positive! A soul world amplification can never be below 0%. As such my father told me to give the Debilitation Centaur a try, which was exactly what I did.

Instead of decreasing, my soul world amplification rose from 0% to 10% which turned the curse into a blessing!

There are some other means one has to pay attention to, but I'm quite fortunate."

When he heard this ridiculous story, Jason couldn't help but think that Isga was trying to fool him.

Yet, Jason could see his mana core and the transmutation he received. Everything in Isga was a little bit different than it would normally be which made his story a little bit less suspicious.

Nevertheless, even if Isga lied to him, it was not worth being angered about, and instead of labeling his story as stupid, Jason became interested in the Debilitation Centaur's.

"So you said that the Debilitation Centaur's curse's only effect is to decrease one's soul world amplification by 10%...isn't that weak? Furthermore, how did your father find such a loophole in the soul world core? Isn't it way too complex?"

It was obvious that one would feel weird after hearing such a ridiculous story, but Isga couldn't help but think that Jason believed him more than other strangers would normally do after they heard his story for the first time.

"The Debilitation Centaurs are certainly not the strongest beasts, but they like to roam around in horde's which makes it more difficult to act against them. However, what is more interesting, that their curse seems to vary for every race. On humans, this weakening curse affects one's soul world amplification, while it might weaken other beast's affinities. As for how my father found out about the Debilitation Centaurs...he is a little bit….special and I would say his mindset is even more so...but he is a good father, so I guess it's fine to have some flaws."

Jason just nodded his head, not realizing that he missed something very important when he noticed that Milan approached them asking if he was fine when he saw Isga.

Greeting each other friendly, Jason noticed that both of them seemed to be friends as Milan asked Isga

"Did all of you team up with Sou in exchange for something special, or was it an unconditional team up in order to approach the exposed mana vein?"

Isga smiled slyly as he answered

"How could Suo demand something from us in exchange for helping him approaching the small mana vein. He can be glad that our only condition to team up with him was to be able to enter the mana vein too.

He guides us and we fight, that's it!"

This answer was enough to overjoy Milan as he said

"Alright, with that we don't have to be afraid about getting rejected and thrown out of the cave from Suo!"

"You two are still on bad terms?" Isga asked when he heard what Milan said.

Milan just shrugged his should at this question, and Isga decided that this was answer enough for him as he looked at Jason

"Don't you feel uncomfortable with your black flame mask? It's not like we will do anything against you after seeing your face!"

Jason thought about for a moment and shook his head

"I don't feel uncomfortable with that mask and neither do I know what Suo Jual will do if he sees me. I burst his banquet a little bit.."

Laughing out loud, Isga slapped on Jason's shoulder as he said

"Let's go over and clear this problem. If he wants to do anything against you I'll help you out. You saved me after all, right?"

Everyone was collecting the beast corpses as Isga, Milan, Jason and the rest of their group approached Suo, who stood around, observing everything.

Seeing his brother, Suo couldn't help but frown, however, he remained quiet because there was nothing he could say against his appearance inside the underground tunnels.

Milan became the direct heir of their family after all...talent reigned supreme immediately after strength, and Milan's talent was higher than his, which Suo had to accept even if he didn't want to.

However, when he saw Jason who had exintquished the black flame mask around him, Suo couldn't help but stare daggers at him.

'Does he want to steal my show again?!'

Suo Jual was known for holding grudges which was the reason for Isga to approach Suo when he heard what Jason had done.

It was not even a major issue but Suo was also a petty person which one could easily see by looking at his facial expression when he saw that Jason walked next to Isga and Milan.

"What is a loser like you doing here? Just go back to Terebrean and leave us, real prodigies alone!!" Suo shouted towards Jason over a distance of more than ten meters.

His voice was loud enough to be heard by everyone in the cavern hall, attracting everyone's attention.

Isga began to wonder how much Suo's pride must have been hurt for him to call Jason out like that.

Jason was surrounded by him and Milan after all!

Furthermore, from the looks of it did Jason should also belong to a strong clan, like all of them!

Otherwise, he wouldn't have been able to conceal his mana core, have such a high proficiency with the black flame affinity he could control as if he was born with it and Jason would have been unable to control his emotions while the emotion disorder curse had been active.

Isga expected Jason to call Suo out too, but to his astonishment, Jason was doing nothing like that. He just said

"Hello Suo Jual, what I'm doing here is pretty obvious, right? Trying to find a secure path towards the exposed mana vein! As for going back to Terebrean...no thanks, I would rather stay inside the Mythic Garden for now and look how you real prodigies cope with the dangers of cursed beasts"

Because he extinguished the black flame mask already, everyone could see his radiant smile that seemed to mock Suo.

Suo wanted to beat up Jason and was about to rush towards him when Isga stepped forward

"Think carefully about what you are doing to my friend! He saved my life and you should know that my family takes favors seriously! Furthermore, I doubt that your brother would let you do something to Jason either!"

After Isga said so, Milan took a step forward and his entire being radiated confidence. His eyes were cold as he said

"We will join your team, I heard that you don't have a soul contract or agreement with the other big families that joined you. If you don't want me to join I can also use my right as the direct heir and order you. However, I think that's not necessary, right? As for Jason, don't touch him!"

Milan hadn't seen how Jason looked before and if he were, to be honest, Jason's facial features and the way he acted were worlds apart.

His fair skin made him look like a teenager, while his physique and behavior were comparable to that of someone in their 20s.

Suo looked at Isga and his younger brother Milan as if they were idiots, but that was not something he could say to his own family's direct heir and another big family's talented descendant.

Furthermore, there were more than one hundred other prodigies his loud voice attracted. As such he was unable to say anything against Isga and Milan.

Gritting his teeth, he could only glare at Jason as he whispered so that only Jason and the others could understand Suo.

"Trash doesn't belong here… be happy that you have someone to back you, otherwise, I would beat you up!!"

Jason didn't know what exactly he had done to Suo, but he was sure that Isga and Milan's behavior added fuel to his already sour mood.

Sighing deeply, Jason didn't think that he had to back off against Suo, just because he hailed from the Jual clan as he said

"You are much older than I am, you know that, right? Give me 3 months and you won't act like that towards me again!"

Circulating mana into his golden eyes, they began to glow faintly as Jason released his killing intent through them.

His golden eyes turned cold as he said

"Don't think you are something special, because of your background….There is always something stronger and you are currently just crawling at the bottom, like an ant!"

Jason's killing intent targeted only Suo, whose face was suddenly filled with horror, but Isga and Milan who stood next to Jason were also affected by his weird attack that seemed to come from his eyes and Jason's killing intent.

Nobody was sure whether Jason's words were meant serious. However, thinking that he was sure to defeat Suo in only three months sounded interesting.

However, nobody could have expected that the future wouldn't be as easy as one would think.

Everything about the Mythic Garden and Argos was more complex than one might think, and a storm was slowly approaching everyone.
