Chapter 909 - Playing around

Having defeated the wandering souls that approached the warehouse and the dojo, Jason rushed towards the portal.

He wanted to prevent too many untraceable chameleons from emerging on the other side of the portal as it could create chaos.

Unfortunately, Jason was only able to kill a few before he noticed the last one disappear from his sight by crawling into the portal.

For a short moment he thought about jumping after them to eliminate the threat, but after giving it another thought, he held himself back.

In the end, he was not supposed to use the portal in Liun as it was strictly forbidden.

In fact, an Agran who used the portal to emerge on the Yinar race's planets would be killed if they didn't have an official permission certificate.

Jason didn't want to test his fate and risk his life.

This was kind of obvious, and instead of doing something that was extremely dangerous for his own safety, he turned towards one of the guards who looked at him in confusion.

His hands were transformed, making him look like an Agran wearing tight gloves out of which short, spiky blades protruded.

However, these blades were just Petri's fangs which Jason had grown out of his knuckles, replacing the scales he had used earlier.

It had made many things easier for Jason and allowed him to kill his opponents in a fast manner.

Yet, seeing all the blood on Jason, the guard could only stare at him in fear.

"Don't look at me like that. Use the portal and tell your people that wandering souls of untraceable chameleons have infiltrated your planet!!"

The moment Jason issued the command that didn't allow the guard to say even a single word, his eyes blinked.

He had a strong presence and clearly showed his superiority and charisma in front of the young guard, who could only comply.

Nodding his head, he quickly rushed through the portal ignoring all the formalities he was supposed to follow.

Jason simply smiled at this thought, thinking that his appearance might be a little bit scary.

Unfortunately, he was not the scariest existence in the surrounding, otherwise, he wouldn't even be required to waste his breath.

Sensing powerful shockwaves several tens of kilometers away from Liun, Jason could only bite his lower lip.

He was slightly nervous, which was totally unfounded.

After all, he was pretty sure that the Soul Monarch's Guard at the Peak of the Specta stage was not supposed to eradicate the city.

The final task of the Guard was something else, otherwise, he would have already destroyed the city, without bothering to maintain a large distance from the city.

This simple fact could indicate that the Guard didn't want to kill innocent people.

However, that was not what Jason thought about the behavior of the Soul Monarch and the Guards!

'He needs the citizens in Liun for something!'

Jason could easily sense what the others failed to perceive. He didn't believe that anyone on the side of the Soul Monarch would care about the lives of others as long as they were able to get their hands on whatever they wanted.

In fact, it was proven that wandering souls felt fewer emotions than others.

Elder Ben had told him about this during his discussion when the messengers of the other races had still been present.

As such, Jason was sure that there was more to it than the Soul Monarch was letting them know.

There had to be a specific reason behind the act of attacking further away from the city.

The only issue was that Jason couldn't understand the reason behind his opponent requiring more citizens.

It was unclear and made Jason feel that he was missing a few crucial pieces of information which he required to understand the big picture.

Unfortunately, he was not even able to see the battle properly, as he had been fighting an almost invisible opponent, Only with the use of every means that could enhance his eyesight he could sense the strong Soul force of everyone quite clearly.

Jason had no perfect sight, but it was possible for him to roughly gauge how the fight was currently progressing.

Yet, instead of seeing an extremely exciting fight that was filled with dangers, death, and the utmost efforts of the defenders to prevent the Guard from doing something, everything seemed slightly distorted.

The defenders were attacking the Guard, who was simply blocking their attacks, pushing away his opponents, using a Spatial affinity in order to avoid being enclosed by dozens of attacks.

It was almost as if he was toying around with them, and Jason couldn't help but feel that this was exactly the case.

'Being at the Peak of the Specta stage, he must have been a combat prodigy before going down the wrong path after devouring at least one powerful wandering soul, and cultivating with Soul forceIf he cannot even defeat those at a lower cultivation base, I don't know who should be able to do so.'

Remembering nearly everything the Elder and other Yinar had told him about the Soul Monarch and his 12 guards, Jason knew that all of them had been prodigies in terms of their combat-, comprehension-, and cultivation talent.

As such, there was no need to question if it was possible for any of the Guards to defeat those at the same cultivation base quite easily.

Yet, the fighting guard seemed to be trying to make it look like the fight was extremely difficult for him to win.

Jason felt that this was ridiculous, but he couldn't care less about this.

After all, everything was fine as long as the city was not run over by wandering souls, let alone powerhouses that were aggravated by the citizens of Liun.

This would be bad, but fortunately not the case.

With that in mind, Jason could only keep his doubt a secret, if one excluded the fact that he and Jennifer shared their thoughts with each other.

Jason didn't think that he had to hide anything from her.

Because of that, he simply told her everything he was seeing and shared his assumptions and beliefs afterward.

Through this, she knew what he saw and thought before adding her own opinion.

Sometimes it was better for two different people to digest the same information because not everybody had the same way of seeing and understanding things.

That was exactly the case with Jennifer, who was openly revealing her thoughts, without bothering if her opinion was different than Jason's.

This was something Jason liked a lot about Jennifer.

She didn't think that it was much of a problem to have different or even conflicting opinions.

Rather, for Jennifer, it was weird to be always on the same side because this could only mean that one of them was forcing themselves to adjust.

Being forced to do something one wouldn't usually like to do was what Jennifer hated the most, and Jason felt the same.

Evidently, there were times the two of them were of the same opinion, but not only were they raised differently, but their background was different, including where they came from, how advanced their origin planet was, and many more things.

However, this didn't mean that there were issues with Jason's knowledge.

Instead, he knew much more than one would usually expect from someone who hailed from an Infant planet.

Furthermore, there were specific things only Agran was aware of and what they used.

For example, soul weapons and equipment would fall in this category.

If Jason was not wrong, only Agran used equipment that could be bound to their soul.

This was quite interesting but also something that made him wonder how many different kinds of equipment existed.

There should also be other types of equipment that could be made use of as long as it made sense.

In the end, Jason believed that cultivation was something like that.

Inventing new things to move ahead, and soul weapons were one of such things.

Maybe, not just Argan but there were even other races that could bind their soul to weapons, and that their only issue was trying to figure out a way to do so.

Jason was extremely interested in how exactly this could possibly work, but he had no time to waste on researching anything. Thus, the only thing he could do was to become stronger.

He hoped that it would be possible to spend more time on other things he was interested in once he became stronger, but that was not something Jason could be sure about.

After all, the issues at hand were numerous and steadily piling up, and the things Jason wanted to do were exactly the same in number; countless!
