Jason couldn't tell if the things he perceived within the Yvaldranite ore should happen or if it was something out of the ordinary, but the paper-thin mana threads he had already cleansed from all purities began to push away his soul imprint.

This was weird and Jason had to focus on sustaining the soul thread he was controlling to maintain the soul imprint. At the same time, he had to take care of Solaris, the purification process, and that the impurities wouldn't injure anything else.

Suddenly, the stigma on Solaris' mana core and above his right eye began to fluctuate as Jason's Celestia aura began to envelop the soul threads firmly.

The Celestia aura forced its way through the Yvaldranite ore inside the soul imprint which it enveloped. After splitting up a small part of its aura, it had been retraced by Jason who was astonished about the sudden behavior his aura showed.

However, after that, a small part of his Celestia aura remained on his soul imprint, Jason could tell that the Yvaldranite ore submitted to him.

It had stopped trying to push away the soul imprint, and instead, it began to approach the soul imprint carefully, trying to stay around it.

This was something Jason didn't expect, but he had already been aware of the fact that his aura could be intimidating, and that was before he had undergone the primal Celestia bloodline awakening!

As such he figured out that he could try doing the same with the Mayrod Soul wood he tried to force into submission with his soul imprint for the last few hours.

He had already nurtured it a little bit and it had begun to accept him slowly, but from what Jason estimated, the time required to control it perfectly wouldn't be short and take at least several days, if not more.

This was way too long and instead of hesitating what to do, Jason told Solaris to halt in its tracks for a moment as Jason averted his attention from the ore that was placed right in front of him to the Mayrod Soul wood.

Focusing on his aura, thick sweat pearls poured down his back as released it towards the small, black-colored piece of wood in front of him.

After he had targeted it with his aura, Jason forced his way through the wood until he was in its center where he had left his soul imprint that was faint and almost not visible.

Jason split up a small part of his aura in order to leave it within the soul imprint that turned more vibrant with a faint luster around it.

'Nice!!'

He was glad that it seemed to have worked out and instead of several days, the submission process would take a few hours at most.

As such he had more than enough time left to perfectly purify every reduced ore that laid in front of him.

'Let's finish what I need first before purifying the remaining two lumps as a payment!'

When he told this to himself, Jason's motivation arose which was noticeable as his aura had been fully unleashed.

Jason was unaware of this, but the small smithy he was working inside was filled with a faint golden and silver mixed luster which his aura was radiating.

At the same time, the ores in front of Jason seemed to scream, willing to be purified and used by him.

When Jason felt their mana fluctuations which he compared to the desire to be purified and used, he was unable to help himself as he smiled brightly.

He didn't waste more time to think about what exactly was going on and there was no time for him to wonder what Shane or Haepha were thinking about the weird behavior all ores unfolded.

Both Shane and Haepha were currently dumbfounded, looking at Jason as if he was some sort of monster as Shane noticed that Haepha was about to approach.

However, he could only show a confused expression showing how he felt inwardly

"Don't even ask me.I don't know what's going on...He already told you that his bloodline awakening occurred just a few days ago!!"

Haepha didn't seem to accept this and felt the need to ask him, only to notice that she had bit her lips with too much force.

She had just wanted to calm herself down by biting her lips, however, it looked like it made everything worse as her mind went riot.

'He is only 16 years old.how can Jason perfectly purify superior grade-3 ores without issues. It looks like the only problem he has to face is the issue about demonstrating the purified ore that the soul imprint is at the upper hand!

Do his capabilities originate from the fact that he is a halfling from a foreign race, or is it really true that grade-3 materials are worse than we expected them to be?... If we were to compare the cultivation system Jason told me about, grade-3 materials would be on par with the..peak-Lique, or lowest Prismar stage?'

The Prisma stage was the third stage in the foreign races' cultivation system and Jason had already told them, that the first three stages were seen as some sort of foundation in order to enter the fourth stage, that was called Ascension stage, where one would merge one's soul with the mana core.

Other than that, even Jason didn't know what stages there might exist, however, he had already told the others, and Haepha that there was a high possibility that several more stages existed.

If mankind was already able to enter the Low-Prismar stage after less than four centuries, how strong were other races?

With that in mind, Haepha couldn't help but think that Jason who had undergone the bloodline awakening shouldn't have many problems to become stronger.

'Why does that annoy me so much?' She wondered, only to see both joy and jealousy glimmering in Shane's eyes.

This told her that he must feel even worse than she was currently doing.

**

Jason's entire being was enveloped in a thick aura brightening up the whole room as he gazed at the Affanyr ingot he had perfectly purified before he extinguished Solaris' flame.

Several hours had passed and his task was finally over. Retracing the aura he had released during the whole purification process he felt that the remaining strength that had been within him was suddenly drained.

Stumbling backward, he could barely hold himself at the table that stood behind him.

Wiping away the sweat that had formed on his forehead, Jason couldn't help but think that he did a very good job as he turned to Shane, who had already calmed down.

"Good Job, let me do the rest!" Shane said while approaching him.

"You can rest now, just continue to infuse your soul threats within the Yvaldranite- and Affanyr ingot while I merge them to a Yvaldranyr alloy. Other than that, you'll have to pay attention to the Mayrod Soul wood too!"

Jason smiled lightly when he heard what exactly Shane understood by 'resting' while saying that he had to pay attention to three things at once.

Fortunately, that was not very difficult anymore because his aura lingered within all three materials' soul imprints which passively attracted the soul treads he had released.

As such, Jason couldn't help but close his eyes for a few minutes.

Too many things had happened and he had yet to find time to release the tension in his body that had undergone too many changes during the last few months.

He felt exhausted and couldn't move anymore as he slumped on the chair he had barely taken out of his spatial ring.

Just like that, the glow around his stigma faded away. Left behind was only a mark that looked similar to a white-colored reversed wing with faint silver and golden colored strands within.

Haepha, who noticed this thought that the stigma looked like a unique tattoo and nothing special at all.

However, what astonished her more was the fact that Jason's aura had vanished too.

It was as if he changed from the working state to a state where he could rest without the need to utilize everything and the only task Jason's body actively did was to control the soul threads he released.

He might be unable to sleep while doing so, but he could rest, which was enough for him at the moment.

Unfortunately, he heard Haepha approaching him and knew that his short rest had already ended.

Yet, instead of saying much, she just told him what she was currently seeing and perceiving.

Under normal circumstances, she wouldn't do so, but Jason had told her that he was unable to control anything about the Celestial bloodline he had inherited.

Jason had already been astonished about the fact that he was able to control what his aura should do, which helped him quite a lot during the ores' purification process.

As such, when he heard what Haepha told him, Jason was confused for a moment before he thought about what had changed compared to before.
