BXBX NOVEL Chapter 594 - Second
As such, he had to attend the celebration event that was held throughout the city.
The highlight of the event was its starting point, wherein the rewards would be handed out to the first, second, and third rank holders.
Jason didn\'t even know who the second or third rank holders were, but he followed the secretary who had suddenly appeared out of nowhere, only to tell him that he should come with him.
Apparently, they were already a little bit late to start the celebration, hence the preparations had to be quickly rushed through.
Under normal circumstances, the liberation tournament would\'ve taken a few days longer, but because the authorities had changed the combat rounds into a battle royale, the entire plan had been discarded.
It was only afternoon, and a few hours after the official meeting between the Olympus federation and human embassy had started, yet Jason found himself in front of a huge crowd of citizens while standing on top of the small exquisite building complex where he was visible to everyone.
Even though he felt that his surroundings had changed due to the crowd of people and the decorations that had appeared out of nowhere, Jason could only shake his head and try to look amused.
Calmly waiting for the celebration event to start, Jason didn\'t even realise that Wisse had appeared near the old dragonewt who could speak in the human tongue.
As such, he didn\'t know that Wisse was talking to the old man, telling him to translate something for the human embassy.
The content of the translation astonished Merl and the human powerhouse, while the God\'s children looked at him in confusion.
"He might have told us that he wants to destroy several world bridges, but to think that he he has his hands on the support of the Olympus federation\'s guest...not bad!"
Betty was only mumbling quietly, but Merl glared at her before he averted his attention to the other God\'s children.
"You guys knew that Jason wants to destroy the world bridges?! And you didn\'t think about informing us??"
Merl\'s reaction was obvious, considering that mankind would lose world bridges to several resourceful territories if Jason were to destroy them.
However, that was not something Jason was bothered about because protecting mankind from the infiltration of hostile common and higher races was more important.
He wouldn\'t be there next time, and instead of worrying about a few resources, Jason would focus on protecting the weak as per the promise to his master.
Evidently, after looking at the state of things resulting due to the aftermath of the Great Argos war, the big families and clans couldn\'t protect the weaker citizens.
As such, Jason decided to behave however he wanted.
Nevertheless, what astonished almost everyone was the fact that Jason didn\'t want to do anything against the Drake clan.
They had been equally bad to mankind as the My?ldra and Burane race, which made Merl and the other big clan\'s powerhouses believe that Jason would hate them.
Yet, what these old men and women didn\'t know was the fact that both Jason and the God\'s children had found a way to terminate enslavement soul pacts!
Jason may not like the Drake clan, but most of their powerhouses had been enslaved when they were young.
As such, destroying, or weakening their soul pact by force would weaken the Drake family\'s combat prowess to a large extent.
As for the rest, Jason decided to allow mankind to reign over themselves.
He didn\'t believe that he could reign over the human race, and neither did he want to remain on Argos.
Giving his best was, in fact, the only thing Jason could do for now, and Wisse simply informed the human embassy about his decision to support the young halfling.
Through this, he paved a way for Jason to leave Argos in the fastest possible time without creating too much of a commotion.
\'One week should be more than enough...with my authority as a dragon and the correct technique, I should be able to destroy unstable world bridges, let alone the lowest-ranked ones!\'
Wisse had enough time to make up his mind.
His master\'s words were still ringing in his ears, and if he were to be honest, he was unsure whether Jason would remain as innocent and naive as he was right now.
While fighting, Jason\'s entire demeanor was different, and Wisse knew that the young man could kill without mercy.
Yet, he had held back his urge to kill the young prodigies of the Olympus federation, which meant that his mind was still stronger than his emotions.
Thus, instead of wasting more time on Argos, he wanted Jason to meet his master, otherwise, he would have to bear responsibility for the young halfling\'s mistakes.
This was the last thing Wisse wanted to do because he had to focus on cultivating, which made him act directly against the human embassy.
"I hope the human race won\'t interfere in my business...Jason is now also considered to be my business! As such, tell the echelons of your race to stay out of our way during the short time we will stay here!"
These were the last words he wanted the old dragonewt, who was in fact a higher-up of the Olympus federation, to translate.
The dragonewt could only follow Wisse\'s order and sigh before he translated the last sentence.
At that moment, Wisse released some of his true dragon aura, highlighting the seriousness of his words before he left the dumbfounded human embassy alone.
Merl was still staring at the God\'s children, his disappointment apparent, only to sigh deeply.
\'Shane...Dalia, just what kind of monster did you two raise up? How can he worry about Argos, and the protection of the citizens who had never done him anything good, when he got the opportunity to leave with a true dragon?\'
In the end, Merl could only assume that Wisse was a true dragon because Jason had said so once.
Meanwhile, another clue pointing towards this was the fact that the released dragon aura that was only a fraction of Wisse\'s true power had already been denser and purer than the dragons Merl had seen!
While Wisse had clearly stated his point, Jason stared at the representative of the Olympus federation, who was standing in front of him and the other winner of the liberation tournament.
They had gathered on top of the building complex, and everyone was cheering for them.
Or, at least, for the other two winners.
Jason was not sure what the Olympus federation\'s citizens thought about him, but at least, they didn\'t insult him loud enough to be heard.
Ignoring the long speech of the representative, he could only stare at the large table with several small and larger parcels lying on top of them.
Through his Emperor Eyes he could clearly see that the object he had fought for in the liberation tournament was in the smallest parcel- the lesser origin flame crystal.
While Jason was already excited, Solaris, who was still inside his body, could barely contain its excitement.
\'Soon...just wait a little bit!\'
Solaris wanted to devour the lesser origin flame crystal right off the bat, but doing so right now could turn the entire celebration into an embarrassing event for the Olympus federation as it was not yet the time for Solaris to act.
As such, Jason waited patiently, while repetitively instructing Solaris to calm down.
Controlling the black origin flame, he only noticed that the other two had already received a magnificent-looking badge in addition to their reward, and he was the last one.
\'Finally!\' He thought while accepting the badge and the small parcel that had been given to him.
At that moment, a firework set off, and Jason couldn\'t help but smile as he opened the parcel as he threw the orange crystal that felt warm in his hand, into the air.
"Go for it!" Jason said in a quiet voice, before a huge maw of black flames and golden strands emerged from his body, issuing a thunderous roar.
The maw turned into a gigantic dragon head as Solaris fused with it. The flames intensified as they enveloped the orange origin flame crystals that shattered with a loud crack.
