God's Eyes (Web Novel)

Jason couldn't hide a faint smile when he felt the golden feathered Roc's spatial affinity seed being shared with him,.

The situation might be a little bit frustrating as powerhouses were on their way towards them, but that was something he wanted to think about later.

With the use of his newly acquired Spatial affinity, it shouldn't be impossible for him to flee at the sight of opponents, either way.

This was what Jason had planned to do, but after testing out the spatial affinity, he realized that it was more difficult than expected.

Creating a small portal around the same height as his own was not all that difficult.

The issues, however, began when he attempted to create a portal connected to the one he had created in front of him.

It made things more difficult as he had to use more mana the further his distance was to the second portal, followed by the added complexity of maintaining the connection between both spatial portals.

There were quite a few issues at hand, but Jason was unable to pay anymore attention to them.

He was already exhausted after injecting his entire divine energy in the red fiery dragon, in addition to the vast majority of his mana.

As such, he was currently passively replenishing both energies.

Even after looking around with his Emperor Eyes, Jason was unable to see any attackers, but his entire body felt tense as if he could already sense that the Adult Roc had been correct.

Because of that, he turned towards the red fiery dragon.

"I think you did enough. Thank you for providing your dragon breath to strengthen Solaris!"

He had a lot to say, but let it be, in the end.

Many things would become more problematic if he were to waste his time in speaking too much as he imagined the powerhouses of multiple races to show up soon.

Considering that even the Rocs were not exactly overjoyed about their arrival, to the extent that they decided to leave Jason and the others, the beings that were approaching them had to be extremely powerful.

At the bare minimum, Jason presumed them to be at the Mecynar stage, which made things not easier, at all.

Rather, it made things much more difficult than he had hoped for as he presumed that they would either force him to join them or even kill him at once!

Both scenarios were possible but the latter was more likely to happen.

After all, the moment he could flee from his kidnappers, Jason would disappear once again, strengthening himself up to the point where nobody would be able to go up against him, except the Primordials themselves.

This was something that sounded extremely plausible in Jason's mind, but in the end, even after escaping the clutches of his kidnapper wouldn't make his situation much better.

As such, he felt like he had to figure out what exactly was going on.

And the best timing, was right now if he were to exclude that he was struggling to make use of his newly acquired Spatial affinity properly and that his divine energy was only slowly being replenished.

Thus, while the red fiery dragon had stopped breathing out its highly potent flames, Solaris flew towards Jason, returning to the soul world as it sensed the tension within him.

Solaris had not even been able to show Jason how much it had improved, and neither was it able to fully digest the flames. As such, it had been a little disappointed.

It was about to reach the threshold to evolve into a Tier-2 flame, and only a little push was required.

Jason was able to sense the same, but the situation around them had changed drastically.

Thus, Jason focused his attention on the red fiery dragon.

"You should fly away. I'm not sure what will happen to you otherwise!"

Not waiting for her reply, he turned towards Jennifer before looking at her with a sorry expression.

"I think it would be better for you to go with the red dragon. I'm not sure what will happen, but I don't want you to get hurt!"

It was already worse enough for Jason to understand that his soulbonds might get injured just because some races were looking for him.

Because of that, he didn't want anything to happen to Jennifer either.

She was the most important for him, along with his soulbonds that were a part of his family, and entire existence.

Thus, it was important for her to be able to leave this place before something worse would happen.

Yet, Jennifer could only look at him, visibly hurt as she bit on her lower lip.

She knew what Jason was thinking of, and that he wanted her to be safe.

Even though all of this was obvious, Jennifer couldn't help but feel a pang of hurt.

'He doesn't want to share his burden with me? Am I not as important to him as I thought??'

This thought lingered in her mind for a moment, but she quickly discarded the thought and shook her head.

Understanding that she was unnecessarily interpreting too much into the situation the moment she looked into Jason's loving and worried eyes, Jennifer relaxed visibly.

As such, rather than distancing herself from Jason, she approached him, before gently intertwining her fingers in his before saying,

"I won't leave you, don't worry about my safety~"

Jason was not sure what to think about this situation, but sensing her grasp around his hand tighten in addition to the light shiver, he figured that it was more important to give her some reassurance.

Unfortunately, this was not as easy to do as one might think as the given situation was quite a hassle.

His fears turned true when his entire being sensed the arrival of more than eight different races.

Approaching their position from eight different locations, they tried to leave him no room to escape their clutches.

Lifting his head to look into all directions with the use of his Emperor Eyes, he could clearly see the terrifying speed of Mecynar stage powerhouses as the clouds were pierced open, revealing the location of all beings around them.

Upon sensing the arrival of eight different races with each of them having a bare minimum of three Mecynar stage powerhouses, Jason could barely force himself to maintain a poker face.

Meanwhile, the fiery red dragon felt herself incapable of leaving as she believed the favor she had given Jason had not been enough.

She had just spewed some of her flames on an Origin flame, after all.

It was not something special in return for what Jason had done to help her. How could her life be equal to some of her breath directed at some sentient flame?

Thus, she could only sigh inwardly before moving slowly toward Jason and Jennifer.

[I won't leave before knowing what is going on!]

The red fiery dragon was still not convinced that the powerhouses were after Jason.

After all, it was her who issued the dragon roar, and not someone else.

She felt that Jason and the Adult Roc might as well be misunderstanding the situation, and she was the target everyone was looking for.

However, it was just a moment later, that her doubt was dispelled as more than forty beings at the Mecynar stage appeared above them.

They were at a high altitude but even then, she was able to understand everything they were speaking.

Eying each other, the newly arrived beings of eight different races exchanged puzzled and astonished glances before some of them smiled schemingly as if they were overjoyed to encounter other powerhouses.

"Are all of you also here for the boy?" A burly man, with nearly pitch-black skin, silver eyes, and silver lines etched along his veins.

His ears were pointy, and a lengthy tail that resembled a demon's tail, curled up as a three meter long broadsword manifested in his hand.

Releasing his primordial energy that merged with the aura the burly man released, his body seemed to enlarge manifold.

Simultaneously, the few other comrades of his kind were doing the same, with the sole difference that it looked less impressive.

Yet, instead of shivering in fright owing to the terrifying presence the burly man and his kind released, the other powerhouses were nearly unaffected.

At this moment, one particular woman stepped forward as she asked everyone in a loud and clear voice.

"So you've been ordered to kill him, even though you have yet to figure out what kind of halfling he truly is… isn't it?"
