God's Eyes

Jason nodded ambitiously and asked multiple questions about the limits of the fortified soul conjunction but Till had to be honest with Jason, as he explained that his limits were already filled by summoning his radiant-star eagle wings for 2 hours because his consolidation hadn't been that long.

This astonished Jason slightly and he wondered if the radiant star eagle was his teacher's first soulbond.

However, he wouldn't ask that because he didn′t want to seem rude and it wouldn′t be that helpful to figure that out, because Till told him, that he was already older than 40 years.

`40 years?` Jason estimated when Mr.Greil began to answer all questions

As a teacher, Till didn′t feel bad answering dozens of questions from ambitious students that obviously liked to get to know more about everything, and time passed without them knowing.

It was already 10 pm but Jason continued asking questions straightforwardly.

But now his previously bright face was rather pale, as the answers he received became rather unpleasant to listen to.

He asked his teacher about the recent incidents with goblins and why nobody did anything against them.

Considering that he fought them already a month ago, there seemed to be something essentially wrong with either the Goblins or the government that acted too slow.

But the answer worsened his mood

"After you brought back the evidence about Goblin soldiers and Goblin mage apprentices striding through the two-star wild zone, almost everyone was shocked, this included us and the government.

We immediately sent magus-ranked individuals to exterminate them and the surrounding wild zones were cleared within a day.

The adjacent wild zones were already infested by Orclins and Hobgoblins at the evolved rank, Orc′s and Hobgoblin Warrior at the unblemished rank, and even Goblin Lords, Orc Warrior and Goblin mages which are existences that have already formed a complete mana core, turning them into magical ranked beasts.

Orcs are higher existences and a rare path from Goblins, while their strength and endurance are not incomparable to Goblins, their reproduction phase is much longer.

Most Orcs establish their own society but apparently not in this case.

Orcs have a high mana resistance and strong physique which is kind of hard to deal with and to exterminate all threads out of the surrounding wild- and magical zones, we had to gather a large troupe of magus′.

Furthermore, the leader of the troupe was a Grandmagus rank.

As such the extermination was possible, even if many magus′s suffered heavy injuries.

We thought, that everything was over and didn′t expect a Goblin King hiding somewhere in the forbidden lands.

Only when the Guardian-ranked beasts began to seek asylum from us, we got to know the information about the Goblin settlement in the forbidden lands.

Even our Grandmagus ranked Captain can't kill some of the Guardian-ranked beasts that sought asylum within the Sanctuary and due to that, we concluded that either hundreds of Guardian ranked Goblins established their settlement with their Goblin King only being at the peak Guardian rank or the Goblin King is already at the Lord Rank, which can be considered the worst-case scenario.

A Lord rank being can immediately shatter Cyro-City′s walls without wasting any energy and without a Lord rank human protecting the whole city or rather Astrix we would have a big problem right now.

But only when you sent me the images of the runes on the pendants, we figured out that the goblins could also supply their weakest force with weapons, which is a huge problem.

If I were to fight the Goblin King, the city would be without protection because Old Drake is not able to fight anymore.

Furthermore, there might be hundreds of Guardian-ranked Goblins Shamans, Mutated Goblin Lords, Goblin Magic Knights, or High-Orcs that would enter the city unhindered.

If the military could stall the former guardian- and magical-ranked Goblins and Orcs, tens of millions of goblin soldiers and mage apprentices with their inscribed weapons would be able to attack the citizens unhindered.

Even if the Goblin soldiers are barely at the awakened rank, if non-combatant civilians would fight them, the result would be obvious. Death!

Cyro City has around 80 million citizens, while more than half of them were either too young and below the Expert rank or only at the Novice rank because they didn′t even start to sense mana.

The military strength of Cyro city is around 1 million soldiers, which takes care of everything within the city, while less than 200.000 are at the Magus ranks.

The Cyro-City has probably around 100.000 Magus ranked beings, which is not really much but still more than enough to defend against the magical ranked goblins.

The main issue however is among the 100.000 Magus ranked beings, less than 1.000 are Grandmagus

And among these 1.000 Grandmagus, more than 70% are old, sustained seriously injured, or have a disease.

At most 500 Grandmagus are able to fight with most of their combat prowess but there are still at a disadvantage against the Guardian-ranked goblins, because humans are innately weaker than beasts.

Without a Guardian-ranked soulbond or at least three to four powerful magical-ranked soulbonds at once, this gap is extremely difficult to overcome.

Most Grandmagus have at most two or three magical ranked beasts contracted because the soul energy requirement for a Guardian ranked being is huge and one is only capable to bind if one possesses innate high soul energy since birth or didn′t contract many higher-ranked beasts for dozens of years to increase the soul energy with the Heaven's Hell soul energy increasing technique or other techniques, that are less painful but also less efficient.

To add, even magical ranked beasts are difficult to find and taming matured ones is even harder.

To contract magical beasts one also needs a large amount of soul energy and it takes most humans years to accumulate it.

Youths with a high talent migrate to Canir in order to obtain more resources with an additional higher mana density.

As such not many should have a Guardian-ranked beast as their soulbond.

That means two Grandmagus would have to fight a single Guardian-ranked opponent, bringing us into an even more disadvantage position due to the Goblin′s innate high numerical advantage.

To survive, most humans would unleash their soul beasts to fight with them, and only with that, we could survive in our current situation but the casualties we had to suffer would be tremendous."

Till ended his long speech and Jason looked at him with widened eyes.

He wanted to tell Jason everything because he felt that this youth in front of him should know everything as he seemed mature and more rational than his peers.

Seron also knew about the Goblin King′s threat but he was also unable to do anything.

If worse comes to worst, he would just take Seron and leave Astrix, but he didn′t really want to let it come to the worst-case if possible.

Jason was still shocked and he knew that Cyro-City had many strong beings but even if 1.000 Grandmagus seemed "grand", Jason figured out that the truth was different, and a slight tinge of fear spread through his body.

`How long does the Goblin King need to set up his army and when will the massacre against each other start? Will our reinforcement arrive before that or is the Goblin King aware of his lack of time?`

Too many questions rotated inside his mind when he heard a somewhat unfamiliar but also familiar voice behind him.

"Brat! Don't think too much or you′ll get a headache. Cyro-city won't fall!" It was an old voice and he was familiar with this voice, or not?

Both Jason and Till turned around and when they saw an old man standing next to Old Drake their reactions were completely different.

"Old Man" Jason said, confused and happy, while being reminded about his soul-awakening.

It was the old man that was present when he had his soul-awakening!

`But what is he doing here? Wasn't he a higher-up from the Beast Pagoda in Artes city?` Jason wondered as he looked at Old Drake who stood behind the old man, slightly worried, which confused Jason even more.

"M..Mr. Blair?.." TIll asked hesitantly not knowing what to do.

"You′re alive?" He asked with his guard up, enveloping himself and Jason instantly, ready to pick his student up any moment to vanish once he sensed something wrong.

"Little One… don't even try to run away...hehehe" The old man, apparently called Mr. Blair said, while releasing a vast and pure mana to shackle down Till, forcefully loosening his mana.

He couldn't move a single inch, while Jason only saw the vast and dense amount of mana through his mana eyes.

Looking straight into the released mana core of Mr. Blair, which was completely sealed when they met for the first time at his soul-awakening, Jason′s eyes widened involuntarily with three words unconsciously escaping his mouth "solidified-prismarine-crystals" as he stumbled backwards and fell on his butt.

Mr Blair looked at Jason with slight astonishment and interest could be seen in his eyes.

`My prey!!` he thought, satisfied with what he figured out.

Over the last weeks, Jason astonished him over and over again, while the most astonishing fact was, that he could remain calm in almost all situations, overcoming the trauma of being killed thousands of times without much difficulty, and even more important, Mr Blair could confirm his guess about Jason′s unique soul.

His soul energy reproduction ability had to be superior because it was impossible for someone without a single unit of soul energy to suddenly have contracted two soulbonds, while both of them needed at least 4 to 6 units at the moment.

From almost non-existent soul energy to a soul energy of at least 10 would take at least a half a year in common cases and Mr Blair grew even more curious about Jason.

Unfortunately, there wasn′t the perfect timing for him to approach Jason, as he seemed to do fine.

Mr Blair wanted to look after his achievements and figure out what he was about to do, once he solved one problem after another.

He knew that Jason was innately an extremely good combatant, while his affinity to mana was superior, which included his senses, control, and so on but most importantly were Jason′s eyes and soul, that kept Mr Blair′s patience.

"Yeah, I'm still alive and kicking. Little one!" He said looking fiercely at Till Greil before he smiled gently at Jason.

He had found his treasure and would do everything he could to make him his!

"I′ll help you guys with the Goblin King, but first I want to talk with this brat!" He ordered without giving Till or Old Drake the chance to say anything at all.
