God's Eyes

Chapter 533 - Wrong Perception

"We can't enter the colosseum looking like our true selves. It would be best to hide our identity too. There are many humanoid races. Simple masks shall serve the purpose!"

Jason wanted them to refrain from exposing themselves before the liberation tournament.

If he were to be honest, it would be best if they could hide most of their affinities too, and only fight with one, imitating one of the other races.

By using several affinities that were normally not compatible with each other, they would only attract suspicion, which was something they had to avoid at all costs.

His own situation was slightly different because he had a stigma, and the Celestia aura, making it 'impossible' for him to pass on as an ordinary human.

Rather, others would suspect him to be a spy or a troublemaker if he were to enter the colosseum.

As such, hiding his stigma was the bare minimum he ought to do..

Staying lowkey was what they had planned in the beginning. Because of that, hiding their identity was only logical.

At the same time, the God's Children had also been told that they shouldn't summon their soulbonds during the liberation tournament.

Nobody knew how the Olympus federation might react.

As such, using their fortified soul conjunction would be their last resort, if things came down to it.

The sole reason for this might have been the Olympus federation, but Jason found this fact to be a little bit exaggerated.

It might be safer, but both Petri and Artemis were able to stay by his side.

They might be in their smaller forms, but there were more than enough other beasts that had been tamed by other foreign races, used as means of transport or as pets.

However, Jason also understood that it might be too much of a shock to allow several soulbonds to suddenly appear out of nowhere. The battles that would be held in the combat arena were likely to be observed by all kinds of unknown races all of whom had varying temperaments.

The liberation tournament was important for everyone. As such, the tension and the excitement would be palpable.

In the end, they bought simple masks, other weapons, and clothes suitable to the Olympus federation's richly diverse culture.

As such, only their mana fluctuations were seen as quite problematic.

Hiding them was possible under normal circumstances, but not during a fight, which meant that at least their opponents would be able to remember them.

That was only if they had enough time to take a proper look at their mana fluctuations. Normally one wouldn't scan and memorize someone else's mana fluctuations, and it required a huge amount of concentration to do that.

Only beings like Jason, or every member of the Heaven's Eyes sect had it much easier to tell apart mana fluctuations and see easier whether they knew someone or not.

His Emperor Eyes saw everyone's mana fluctuations even if he didn't want to.

This was annoying in some cases but was the easiest way for Jason to tell whether he knew someone or not.

Thanks to that, others were unable to disguise themselves in front of him without completely concealing their entire mana core.

His eyes were just too powerful.

In the end, the other God's Children didn't say much after they had comprehended what Jason was trying to achieve.

Nothing serious had happened during the few weeks they had known him.

On the contrary, they had observed him and seen how kind Jason was to others, and that he didn't have any prejudice against other foreign races.

There were only a few times he had heard citizens of the Olympus federation gossip about the foreign races that had suddenly invaded Argos, only to disappear two years later.

Some individuals seemed to have stayed back on Argos because of different reasons, and it was only when Jason heard something about the Ifrytor, My?ldra, and Burane race that a tinge of hatred flashed in his eyes.

It was similar to when their small group had been talking about Argos' situation, and how to prevent the Drake family from doing something stupid.

In the end, Jason didn't have to hide anything because it was already a well-known fact that he had lost Scorpio, his dear soulbond, along with his masters during the Great Argos war.

This had made the five God's Children have a soft corner for him and they had taken a liking for Jason.

He was extremely strong despite his young age. Because of that, the other God's Children who had only been competing against each other, trying to be stronger than each other, had found a new rival, a new opponent to overcome.

Jason might have been the youngest amongst them, but his talent and combat prowess were unparalleled, otherwise, he wouldn't have been able to send someone, who was a stage higher than he was, to sleep!

His uniqueness was obvious, and also the fact that he was not an ordinary human, but that was not something they worried about anymore.

Knowing how Jason's mind worked was extremely difficult, yet in some subjects easy to figure out. He wanted to leave Argos once he fulfilled his masters' wish.

At the same time, it was not difficult to perceive that something else was holding him back from leaving.

Everyone assumed the reason for him staying behind was to take revenge and to take care of the promise he wanted to fulfill by all means.

However, that was not exactly the case because there was more behind it!

Avenging the death of his masters and serving vengeance to those who deserved it was important to Jason, but nobody knew that he had to rescue an entire family of four, from the Drake clan's clutches.

'After the liberation tournament, I will come and rescue all of you!! Even if I have to force a way through the entire Drake clan!'

His plan was simple, but he needed strength to see it through, and right now, the opportunities were flooding him at the most perfect time.

It was not necessary for him to be afraid of the big clans, or ancient sects anymore. Their era was over and it was his turn to take over the reins and show them who the strongest was.

There was no need to hold back either, and Jason couldn't help but smile radiantly.

The God's Children were nicer than he had expected, and they were only lacking in combat experience as they had mostly been sheltered and asked to cultivate, get to know their soulbonds to form a fortified soul conjunction and practice their body refinement technique.

Only when the Great Argos war had started, had it been impossible for them to practice in their safety nets.

They could no longer avoid fighting, out in the real world and they had gained their first combat experience.

It seemed cruel, but had been beneficial for their personal growth and shaping them both as an individual and as a warrior.

Everyone had changed due to the Great Argos war, and there was hardly anyone who hadn't been affected by the war even remotely.

Whether it was for the better or worse, change was the only constant, and being prepared for the worst-case scenario was what made Jason strive for more and more, every single day.

He had to protect himself, his soulbonds, and those important to him!

Taking a deep breath, Jason looked at the others with ambition flickering in his eyes.

"Let's go, we have to beat up some arrogant folks and earn a fortune!!"

As they entered the colosseum that was ginormous, spanning over several dozen building complexes, Jason could only smile brightly.

His golden-silverish eyes reflected his unwavering confidence that shone brightly from behind the silver dragon mask he was wearing.

Within seconds, every being's strength was perceived and evaluated by Jason and his emperor eyes!

Turning his head towards the reception, where they had to register themselves, Jason smiled deviously. The others would have noticed that he was planning something stupid and reckless, had they been able to see his expression behind the mask.

'Let's make it big. Shall I become Janur's gossip and a legend of the colosseum?'
