God's Eyes

It was already evening when the last spared were fought and Seron already gave Jason another two energy replenishing potions, as their fights seemed to become more exhausting after the rewards were increased.

Both couldn´t even move anymore, even though their mind was still working on full speed, while they replicated the fights, they underwent, laying on the ground.

Without the ability to move anymore, that was the only thing they could do as their mind was the only thing that seemed to work.

Recreating their fights was one way to improve one´s combat experience and Jason thought the 100+ fights he went through today increased his observance and minuscule movement by a large margin, while he got the hang of his body after he received the baptism.

Overall not only his strength increased thanks to the baptism, but also his mana circulation increased by a lot, which enhanced his techniques proficiency and even his passive mana replenishing and absorption which was done by his sub-area.

This overjoyed Jason but he could barely force a smile on his face.

Till released the other students from their torture and they could go home, while he picked up Jason and Seron as white golden manifested on his back.

He brought both of them back home, while Seron was dropped off at a large mansion where a maid already waited for them.

Seeing Seron´s dirty and disheveled appearance, without any strength left in his legs, she looked fearful at Till, before she dragged him inside.

Jason looked at Till who was deep in thoughts and before Jason could say anything Till said.

"I assume you are now Shane´s disciple... You don't have to answer, but keep in mind that this decision is an extremely dangerous one.

Consider that you could also pull in the Fler´s with your decision...Have you ever thought about that?" TIll said with a serious tone and Shane had completely forgotten that he could have drawn the Fler´s accidentally into the fray, causing his face to sour… He had only thought about himself and didn't know what he should do now.

But everything was already done and he couldn't really change it.

The only thing that he could do was to ask his masters about this matter, as he didn't want to see any of the Fler´s injured because of his misdeed.

Jason nodded seriously before he barely opened his mouth, trying to change the subject.

"What happened to the school mission and so on? Can I still receive some lace points for the Goblins and stone weapons with runes on them?"

TIll looked at Jason with a perplexed expression

'You want to talk about that? Isn't the protection of the Fler's more important?' But he disregarded this thought as he thought Jason had already asked Shane about this matter.

As such he answered: "You´ll still receive the same rewards as before, the only disadvantage is, that the stone weapons with runes on them are worth slightly less compared to before and the same can be said for the protection pendants.

Nevertheless, you´ll still receive a fortune for them because most runes inscribed on the stone weapons corroded thanks to the poisonous rain cloud, the guards summoned.

You can go to the Artisan tower tomorrow and I doubt you´ll be disappointed with what you get."

Till thought for a moment and he remembered that the government still had to pay Shane his fee of 20% for all the materials they received from the Goblin basement.

"Please tell Mr.Blair, that he should tell us where we should send the Star notes and credits towards...We received quite a lot thanks to him and fortunately, Cyro-city is still standing firmly, even though we had many casualties."

"Ahh!" While they were flying, Jason also remembered that Shane had to receive his commission from the Goblin basement but he thought that sending it to his bank account like Shane wanted, was too suspicious.

As such Jason thought for a moment and said "Give me the star notes and Credits in a spatial ring.. Ah and please don't try to find his base. My eyes can see GPS devices and so on easier than others"

Till nodded nonchalantly but he had to acknowledge that Jason was definitely not stupid. The fortune Shane would receive was humongous and even he had to say, that he was jealous about it, but there was nothing one could do.

Shane Blair saved the whole Island in the end. Old Drake would have been killed and the whole city annihilated.

Even though he was on Astrix, he could barely kill the Goblin King, and to be honest, he could only find him thanks to the device Mr.Blair lend him.

Otherwise, the Goblin King would have probably strengthened himself even more

"Mr. Greil? Can I receive my lace points also from you? I don´t want to go to school tomorrow morning and the Artisan tower is quite a distance away from school?"

TIll was thrown out of his thought and he only nodded because there was no reason to decline Jason´s offer and only a minute later, he landed in front of the Fler´s house, where he dropped of Jason.

They exchanged the goblin soldier, goblin mage apprentice and hobgoblin corpses one the street which was weirdly eyed by his neighbors before Jason received a notification on his quantum bracelet.

His school profile was updated and Jason had now 100 lace points, which was nothing compared to the wealth that hung around his neck inside the conservatory causing him to smile dryly.

His quantum bracelet was also completely overfilled with inscribed stone weapons and forging materials but he was reluctant to sell them forging materials because he would so learn how to forge soon enough

The only thing that he didn't really like was the extremely unsightly anvil that was heavier than anything he ever lifted.

Jason said goodbye to Till who looked at him with an interested gleam in his eyes before he soared into the sky.

Looking at Till who flew nimbly through the air, Jason also wanted to be able to fly as soon as possible when he went inside the house, thinking about flying around with a smile on his face.

Jason greeted Gabriella and Mark who sat at the dinner table eating and he sat down with them to eat something.

Apparently, Greg was absorbing mana as if he was obsessed, after Jason´s strength increased.

Even Malia was overwhelmed by Jason´s skyrocketed strength, causing her to focus more on increasing her own strength instead of helping Jason out by answering questions all the time.

As such Jason ate with Gabriella and Mark before he went upside to his room, where he carefully sat on his bed before practicing the Heaven's Hell technique.

Afterward, he felt extremely exhausted and after feeding Scorpio with his last remaining strength, Jason fell into a deep sleep.

***

It was 8 am when Jason woke up by lovely stings that poked him and he could see Scorpio that looked at him intently while transmitting the desire to eat something.

Feeding Scorpio and handing out a small mana stone which he could absorb partially, Jason inspected his soulbond as he noticed that his exoskeleton seemed to have grown more sturdy, while he reached a length of 16 centimeters.

His incomplete mana core told Jason, that Scorpio would soon reach the five-star wild beast rank and Jason had a bad premonition that it would be at the same time when Artemis awoke and he immediately called a shuttle.

Inside the shuttle, he would practice his Heaven´s Hell technique.

But before the shuttle arrived, Jason worked out and washed up.

Entering the shuttle and practicing the Heaven's Hell technique, Jason noted, that his soul energy had increased to slightly above 15.4, which caused him to sigh in relief.

If his increase in soul energy stayed the same, he would reach 16 units in his soul energy until Friday, which could be enough for both Artemis and Scorpio.

At least Jason hoped so.

Arriving at his destination, he could see a huge tower in front of him with the size of a few hundred meters, made out of tempered Ouea-glass and Alio-marble which were both grade-2 materials.

Looking up, dizziness overcame him and he almost lost his balance.

Barely being able to stand, he entered the Artisan tower, where he was immediately obstructed by the guard at the front gates, who controlled everyone.

Apparently the Artisan tower had a few enemies and some desperate would try to bomb the tower, with whatever reason there may be and Jason found this a little bit exaggerated.

But he had nothing to hide anymore and his quantum bracelet storage device was scanned, only for the guard to look at him with widened eyes, as he gave him the bracelet back with shivering hands.

Apparently, he had seen the content of his storage device that was crammed with expensive ores, not many people would be able to afford and the extremely big anvil was an even more astonishing sight

The guard made space for Jason, as he thought the black-haired youth in front of him could be the disciple of a high-ranked blacksmith or something like that.

Avoiding offending people like Jason was always his top priority, otherwise, he might even lose his life if he did something wrong.

Entering Cyro-cities Artisan-tower, Jason couldn´t help but exclaim as he looked around.

The whole entrance hall was filled with dense mana and the sensation inside could be described as cooling and extremely relaxing.

Walking towards the reception, Jason requested for an Inspector to value some of his materials and weapons.

The receptionist looked at Jason´s ID he sent her and she could only look weirdly at the ID and the person in front of her.

'Is that picture old?WHAT? He is barely 14 years old?!` She doubted her eyes and looked at the picture of his holographic ID-picture and Jason in front of her, wondering what was going on.

But noting that he was only 14 years old, she wondered what he would have to let someone inspecting it.

Due to her working spirit, she wouldn't allow any of her esteemed Inspectors to waste their time on something unworthy.

As such a slight seed of prejudice formed in her mind, telling her that Jason didn´t have anything worthy with him because he wasn´t from a renewed family or clan, which would otherwise be pointed out on his ID.

Meanwhile, Jason wondered, why the receptionist´s expression turned so serious within a second.

"Before I can let you through to an Inspector, I have to see if the items you want to evaluate are worth the effort to call them. Please show me what you want to have inspected!!" She stated with a cold voice…

"Here?" Jason asked hesitantly and the receptionist laughed coldly in her mind, stating "Yes, please SIR!"

"Okay…." without minding the receptionist's attitude, Jason entered his quantum bracelet with his mind, and suddenly with a loud *BOOOM* a few tons heavy anvil fell on the ground, creating multiple cracks on the marble floor that was strengthened by toughness runes.

"Ups…."
