God's Eyes

Chapter 544 - Face Off

Despite saying that he wouldn't hold back, Jason wanted Jarid to see what was about to happen.

As such, he decided to ignore using the abyssal ability for the rest of the fight.

Jarid was already enveloped in a thick layer of thunder that swirled around his body like snakes, ready to lunge at every opponent in their range.

His eyes had regained some of their vigor and will to fight, and to give his best while facing the silver-dragon masked man.

He was ready to collide with Jason once again.

This caused Jason to smile behind the silver-dragon mask as he took a deep breath.

Thanks to the terrific high mana absorption rate he had attained by using every means to enhance it for a short time, Jason had been able to fully replenish his mana core.

Thus, holding back because he lacked mana was out of question!

.

Suddenly, the three-meter-long tail and black scales with the golden vein pattern spreading through it dispersed as if they had never existed causing an uproar among the spectators.

They had assumed that the scales and tail were something that belonged to the silver masked man's body, which he could simply retract and extract.

However, now that it simply dispersed, their assumption was proven to be wrong!

If everyone knew that Jason could manifest and disperse his soulbonds body parts as long as they occupied his body,

Yet, even more, astonishing to everyone was that a set of wings had manifested out of black flames sprouting out of his back.

Only a moment later, highly compressed flames emerged from his skin, enveloping Jason tightly.

Everything was pitch-black, except the golden shimmer that shone through the masked slit and the black flames that seemed to crave something.

From an indomitable force of physical strength, Jason had turned into the epitome of a black fire god.

There were many races with a fire affinity, including mutated fire affinities that were extremely powerful and deemed as extraordinarily strong, however, Solaris was on a completely different level.

The black flames were unfathomable, yet, they caused everyone nearby, Jason, to feel the intense pressure released by every single flame.

Solaris was at the peak of the 10th Lique stage and on the verge of breaking into the Prismar stage.

It was only lacking the ability to create a solidified prismarine crystal which was something Jason had yet to figure out.

Nevertheless, as long as Jason had enough mana, he could use the black flames to his heart's content which included the utility of the abilities Solaris had!

Jason's appearance of a pitch-black being that radiated an unbearable heat, and increasing the temperature inside the entire colosseum was a stark contrast to Jarid's.

He still looked like his usual self, despite the thunder armor which was not the case with Jason.

If one had no idea about his actual appearance, humans who had listened to all kinds of fairy tales and nightmares would compare him to a devilish existence!

Even worse than the pressure he released were the piercing, golden-silverish eyes that were clearly visible.

All of that together was almost enough to crumble the confidence Jarid had painstakingly gathered during the last few minutes.

From one of the most talented and self-confident citizens of the Olympus federation, he had turned into a pushover; a weakling.

In front of thousands of spectators, and a youth who was barely at the peak of the 1st Lique stage at that!!

To Jarid, it was obvious that Jason would participate in the liberation tournament, and he couldn't help but feel excited when he would encounter the other true prodigies that were older than him!

"ARRGHH!" Screaming out, Jarid gave himself a last push.

He used every single trace of mana inside his mana core, and the courage left within him to charge towards Jason.

His speed had been as terrific as before, but Jason remained rooted to the spot, similar to what he did in their first clash.

This time, however, Jason lifted Byakur, which he was holding with a firm grip.

"Be careful!"? He cautioned as he transferred the vast majority of his mana into his longsword.

At the same time, the tormenting black flames around Jarid swirled violently before they shot towards Byakur.

Every single rune on Byakur was glowing up and it grew in size at a rapid pace.

It had been a long time since Jason had used the enlargement rune, but somehow, it felt like every rune had become a part of his body.

As such, Jason could freely activate every rune he found usable in the current situation.

While huge black flames were tightly woven around Byakur, the armor that enveloped Jason thinned.

Jason brandished his longsword at Jarid who had almost reached him, only to smile lightly as he exerted the Floating sky movement technique to the highest possible degree.

At the exact same time, the Emperor Eyes began to glow brightly as Jason released the petrification curse.

It was just then that Jason noticed that the petrification curse was blocked by Jarid, who seemed to be using a special technique to prevent his entire physique from being affected by the paralyzation.

Unfortunately, this didn't apply to the race specific weakening curse Jason exerted only a moment later.

Jarid, who had assumed that it was the exact same curse he had faced before, hadn't dared to lower his guard because of the uncomfortable feeling he'd received.

Despite that, it was still not possible for him to cope with the sudden weakening his thunder affinity had received.

He was giving his best, but it was exceedingly difficult to overcome the sudden, yet drastic deterioration of a certain trait one had painstakingly trained.

Even worse was that Jarid relied on his thunder affinity more than anything which was noticeable by looking at his physique, the cultivation technique, and other types of techniques he used.

Everything had to do with his affinity, and Jarid was unable to fight without it!

As such, the effect of a decrease of his thunder affinity by a total of 20% was tremendous.

Jason hadn't perceived the exact potency of the enhanced race specific weakening curse before.

Because of that, he could only smile bitterly as Byakur was right by Jarid's side.

The soul weapon had grown to more than ten meters and there was still quite some distance between Jarid and Jason.

Taking into account the decrease of speed the Olympian had to face right now, it was impossible for them to collide in a close combat attack.

He now had to face Byakur first!

Thus, Jarid was forced to face the weapon that was enveloped in black flames head-on.

Evading it was impossible as it was already too late for him to swiftly change his trajectory and Jarid could already perceive how the flames would lunge after him.

Just as the razor-sharp blade was about to hit Jarid, and cut him in half, Jason shortened Byakur's length, barely enough to brandish past the young Olympian.

Byakur's tip grazed Jarid's chest before Jason allowed Solaris to wreak havoc!

The black flames that thirsted for mana pounced on the thunder armor that enveloped Jarid, enveloping and devouring anything through the mana nullification ability the black origin flame possessed.

A moment later Jarid was completely enveloped in black flames and it was only when the young Olympian stopped in his tracks that Jason snapped his fingers extinguishing the flames in an instant.

"I guess I won!"
