Chapter 420 - Demonstrating Real Power!
Summoning Byakur within a single thought, he had already emerged above the lowest-ranked Ifry that had around 10 drops of mana liquefied within his mana core.
As such, his first opponent was not a threat to Jason, whose strength had already reached the Low Lique stage with a physique comparable to 120 drops of mana.
After he had added Artemis amplification of 50% instead of 100% which he received because she was currently within his mana core, Jason was much stronger than any of the Ifrytor and Ifry in front of him.
They had noticed him the moment he had summoned Byakur, but it was already too late to save their comrade.
Jason knew that he was about to kill a human as he slashed out with Byakur which he had further sharpened by injecting mana into it.
However, when he saw the Ifry\'s face, Jason could tell that Dalia\'s words were certainly true.
If he didn\'t kill these monsters that could hardly be called humans, they would tear him apart without any hesitation!
With a clean slash, Jason severed the head of his first opponent. His gaze followed the flying head which caused him to look at it disgustingly for a moment.
Throughout his entire life, he had killed hundreds if not a few thousand of beasts, but it was his first time to execute a human.
Jason had expected that he would feel much worse than he was currently doing.
He felt a little bit disgusted, but that feeling was quickly washed away as Solaris who was in his soul world shook wildly, telling him that he wants to be summoned.
It was unknown exactly what the black origin flame wanted but from the flames he had perceived around the Ifrys, Jason could estimate what it desired.
As such he summoned Solaris into his hand before he threw it straight towards the severed body before he averted his attention to his other opponents.
Solaris had subconsciously dragged him out of the disgust he had felt for a short moment.
Because of that, he was able to think much clearer right now and Jason had to thank Solaris once everything was done.
From the resistance he sensed through his soul connection with Byakur, Jason was able to tell that the first opponent that had around 10 drops of mana was much stronger in his physical strength.
At the same time, his mana eyes\' that perceived everything in his surroundings easily, identified that the flames lingering on and within the Ifry were being nurtured by devouring life force!
\'Is the Ifrytor race using humans to nurture those flames and to fight for them...they\'re basically meat shields and food, completely unaware of it! \'
When Jason noticed this, he couldn\'t help but eye the Ifrytor race differently because they were much smarter than their appearance made him believe.
They were humanoid like most races Jason had encountered until now, but their lower part was in a gaseous state.
At the same time, their two-meter tall, bulky upper body was embedded with several dozen crimson colored, glowing stigmas that looked similar yet extremely crude and useless to Jason.
From what his mana eyes perceived, Jason could tell that the crimson-colored stigmas had been inscribed on the Ifrytors bodies and they were a bad fake to a real stigma.
The advancement their stigma transmitted to their mana circulation and affinity usage was insignificant compared to what Jason could unfold by using his stigma to the fullest.
Even though it was useless, Jason couldn\'t help but think that the Ifrytor race should feel what true power was!
Yet, instead of showing it obviously, he barely hinted at his capabilities by utilizing his mana eyes\'s abyssal ability in addition to the petrification curse he harbored.
His silver-golden colored eyes were enveloped in a halo of serpent pupils that began to glow brightly before everyone who had been staring at him had been paralyzed for a short moment
The lowest Lique stage Ifry with less than 50 drops of liquefied mana within their cores even started to petrify slowly, shocking everyone around them.
At the same time, Jason exerted the weightless steps technique to his fullest capabilities while retracting Artemis\' wings.
While he was doing so, he told Artemis to leave his mana core to allow Scorpio to enter his mana core.
Manifesting Scorpio\'s sapphire-colored exoskeleton around him he didn\'t forget about the two-meter-long stinger that pierced out to the closest Ifrytor to it.
Jason knew that Scorpio\'s exoskeleton was not the best choice against the Ifrytor and Ifry\'s flame that were much stronger than Scorpio because he had already reached his racial limit at 20 drops of liquefied mana.
However, Jason didn\'t plan to defend against his opponents at all as he had already appeared as his next victim.
His speed had already accelerated by 60% and Jason continued to circulate mana through his body in order to increase his speed further.
Before he knew it, the next three Ifryr and two Ifrytor had been killed by Byakur.
With Byakur, Jason didn\'t feel much resistance as long as he provided with enough mana.
Jason noticed that he had taken away several lives within a few moments, but it didn\'t feel different compared to the beasts he had already killed.
In the end, they were living beings too and Jason had decided that it was time for them to die!
Otherwise, others, his friends, masters, or even he himself had to die at their hands too.
Jason had never felt that the rules of the jungle were that close to him, and he could tell that his opponents were aware of this too.
They also noticed that Jason, who hadn\'t looked like someone extremely strong, massacred his way through their whole group that was strong enough to kill a human at the Low Lique stage with over a hundred drops of liquefied mana!
It was obvious that Jason would kill them all, but what wondered the Ifrytor was the fact that the unknown being, that was able to summon wings and a sapphire-colored armor, had killed all former humans except one.
They hadn\'t even been able to summon their soulbonds until now because the summoning process took too long.
That was only the case without fortified soul conjunction or in Jason\'s case both a fortified soul conjunction and the fact that his stigma allowed his soulbonds to be summoned without delay.
The last Ifry that had survived Jason\'s onslaught until now, summoned his soulbond that was at the Lowest Lique stage with more than 80 drops of liquefied mana.
It was a huge bear that was glad in flames that attacked Jason only reluctantly after being forced by its master.
Jason didn\'t even bother about the bear because he had to evade several streams of turbulent flames that seemed to be alive.
Those flames came from the weird, yet enhanced version of those flames the last Ifry and his death companions had.
They were much stronger and Jason could tell that his assumption about humans being used as a meat shield and a resource to nurture the flames he saw.
On one side it was interesting but on the other hand, it was disgusting, and the most ridiculous fact was that those flames were not even comparable to common origin flames!
Even the E-grade origin flame, the president of the Artisan tower, in Cryo-City, had, was much better in comparison!
It was hilarious to think that one had to nurture these weird flames in order to be worse than the worst possible origin flames.
However, Jason couldn\'t tell how many of those flames existed and to what extend they could be nurtured.
As such it was possible for them to be even better than estimated, one was to think based on quantity instead of quality!
Yet, Jason couldn\'t help but think that he might have to show them how a real flame looked like.
With that in mind, Jason halted abruptly in his tracks, avoiding several fire whips at once before he turned towards the black origin flame.
Solaris had already devoured the remains of the weird flame that had attracted it and was ready to return.
It had devoured the weird flame, but this shouldn\'t have been that much of a surprise if Jason were to recall how the black origin flame had acted with origin flames.
The Ifrytor race\'s flames were somewhat similar, yet weaker than origin flames and Jason estimated them to be beneficial for Solaris to devour and absorb.
When he reached the range at which he could retract Solaris within his soul world again, he did so without hesitation before he switched out Scorpio, who was still within his mana core with Solaris.
This forcefully disintegrated the sapphire collored exoskeleton, only to be replaced by Solaris\' black flames that erupted within a single moment.
Enveloped by those black flames, Jason\'s golden-silver-colored eyes shone through them as if he was about to devour them entirely.
The five-meter-tall bear that was enveloped with flames stiffened, only to hear its master ordering it to continue attacking, which the bear was forced to do.
However, before anything could happen, Jason activated his stigma while Solaris did the same.
The black flames were pressed tightly against Jason\'s body, as the stigma glowed faintly through the thin layer of flames.
His eyes were doing exactly the same and Byakur which he grasped tightly began to release currents of killing intent before Jason charged ahead at the frightened Ifrytor, Ifry, and his soulbond.
