BXBX NOVEL Chapter 975 - Prelude
But that was exactly the reason why she simply agreed to his plan after giving it some thought.
"If the rumors revolving around the Kanadi of a Primordial technique are true, it should be possible for you to cleanse Lyina in 50 years as long as you can practice the technique for a decade, right?"
Considering that the rumors were fairly accurate, the Sacred Elvyrs would be able to speed up their plan by several decades.
This was not a long time for Cultivators at their cultivation base.
However, they wanted to nurture the youngest generation for these few decades were far longer than their entire lifetime.
As such, Queen Lilya couldn\'t help but smile lightly, thinking that Jason was a much more valuable treasure than initially presumed.
Entering Tagran was currently quite useless for Jason because it was way too dangerous for a weakling such as him.
But after spending a decade practicing the Kanadi of a Primordial technique, his entire being would be refined, nurtured and enhanced.
Through this, his cultivation talent would skyrocket, while his combat prowess would become even more terrifying.
This would be even more so the case if he were to spend some quality time in Lyina, a paradise for cultivators as long as the dark and impure energies were removed completely.
Afterward, it would only be a matter of time before he would enter Tagran, advance to the Driekta stage, and meet his grandparents…hopefully.
This was Jason\'s plan, and perceiving that the Queen supported his idea of practicing the Kanadi of a Primordial technique, even if it was just for her own good, he felt that his plan proceeded in the right direction.
Meanwhile, the other powerhouses didn\'t even understand what was so special about the Kanadi of a Primordial technique.
They had never even heard about the existence of a technique with such a name, to begin with!
"Is there something else you\'ve planned to do? If you plan to undergo your True Soul awakening anytime soon, please forget about that. We will never be able to procure the items you asked for within a few weeks.
You should be happy if we manage to procure everything before you finish cleansing our planet of the dark and impure energies!"
Jason had already figured that it would take some time to procure all necessary items for his True Soul awakening.
But after hearing the Queen\'s resolute voice, Jason could only sigh deeply before accepting her words with a nod.
"In that case I\'m fine. It is not a necessity, but it would be great if Solaris could devour some kind of high-graded flame before I start working."
The Queen just nodded her head in response before looking at one particular Sacred Elvyr.
Her questioning gaze enough was enough to make the powerhouse hastily answer her unspoken doubt.
"I\'m sorry your majesty, but we don\'t have any of the required flames in our warehouse right now!! But we can procure one in a few days…I think!!"
Tilting her head, the Queen seemed to be displeased about the last few words which the powerhouse had uttered as her voice grew cold before she asked in a deliberately slow manner, stressing on the two words more than necessary.
"You…think?"
Jason hadn\'t seen the Queen behave like this before.
She had looked quite cheerful in the short time he had known her.
Thus, it was quite a shocker to witness an abrupt change in her attitude.
"We will be able to procure it in a few days!!"
Sweating profusely, the Sacred Elvyr, who seemed to be responsible for the management of treasures, quickly corrected himself to placate the Queen\'s anger.
Only then did the tensed surroundings calm down as she returned her gaze to Jason.
"I\'m sorry, but I think you will have to wait a few days before we find a suitable flame. Meanwhile, maybe you can start cleansing the immediate surrounding of Lyina\'s world bridge in those days?
Like this, you can get a fair idea of what will await you after you finish your refinement of the entire being!"
Somehow, Jason felt as if the Queen was trying to please him way too much.
It was not that this bothered him, but rather the other Sacred Elvyrs that had to endure the Queen\'s temper owing to this made him feel a bit queasy.
But Jason simply ignored the gazes they threw at him while nodding his head at Queen Lilya as he answered with a bright smile.
"There is no problem if we start right now. I\'m free either way!"
Upon hearing him, the Queen gave him a radiant smile as well as Jason seemed eager to depart.
He had already gotten up from his chair, only to look at Jennifer, who sighed deeply as she shook her head.
Only a moment later she mumbled,
"Didn\'t you say that you were tired of jumping from one location to another one? Don\'t you think you\'re rushing things a little bit? Just don\'t make a mistake…please…"
Jennifer didn\'t even know if it was dangerous for her to be exposed to the dark and impure energies.
The only thing they had been told was that Jason\'s divine energy was \'likely\' to provide the results the Queen sought.
Unfortunately, Jason\'s short talk with his father seemed to have turned him into a reckless young man, who wanted to lay his hands on everything he could to have a real, face-to-face discussion with his father.
Jennifer could roughly understand how Jason was feeling because she had felt the same not too long ago in the past.
But even then, she felt that Jason needed to behave responsibly and take care of himself a little bit better.
That was something Jennifer wished to happen as his opinion and decisions to do certain things seemed to change quite quickly, denoting that he was unsure.
He was easily influenced by his emotions, even if he painted a different picture to the outside world=.
This was quite worrisome for someone, who sincerely cared about Jason.
As such, Jennifer felt like she had to think about something to take control over Jason if he were to ever lose his reasoning for good!
\'Just what can I do?\'
While Jennifer was trying to help Jason in her own small way, the young Celestia halfling had already pulled her up from the chair.
They were leaving for the world bridge that led to Lyina, and Jason didn\'t want to leave Jennifer behind.
He felt that she was the most secure around him and he wanted her to be in front of his eyes wherever he went.
This might put her in more trouble if there were to be someone who sought revenge from him or wanted to harm him, but Jason was more at ease by having her around.
Deep within his conscience, Jason knew that she was his unwavering pillar of support and safety net, and the only one who could truly change his mind, make him see the pros and cons of his actions and anchor him to rationality even if he were to lose himself to his emotions.
Because of that, and other factors, it was most important for her to stay by his side, and never leave him.
How could they have known that it was far more important for Jennifer to be Jason\'s safety net than they were able to imagine right now?
The future would clearly demonstrate this, and that too in the worse possible way one could imagine as the calm times that were filled with the fulfillment of multiple promises Jason had once made, were merely considered the calm before the storm.
A storm that would shake the Universe, pave the way for Jason\'s grand, yet also bloody future!
**
Not even 24 hours had passed, and both Jason and Jennifer saw themselves standing in front of a world bridge, right in the middle of a ginormous plain.
However, they were unable to see much owing to the black colored reeking miasma that swept through the entire planet causing Jason to almost gag and puke.
"So that is the dark and impure energy you\'ve been talking about?" Jason asked, clearly confused about what his Emperor Eyes perceived.
Solaris\' flames enveloped his mouth and nose, purifying the air he was breathing in, which in turn astonished the Queen and the other powerhouses that had wanted a quick demonstration of how Jason wanted to cleanse the dark and impure energies of Lyina.
They were forced to actively use their lesser divine energy in order to simply breathe, so they were bewildered to see that Jason didn\'t even use any mana, let alone divine energy to supply it to the flames he had enveloped around the lower part of his face and that of Jennifer.
"Looks like it will be much easier than I expected…This must be a bad joke!" Jason mumbled, only for his voice to grow low, to the point that nobody could hear his last few words.
\'Let\'s go then…I guess!"
