God's Eyes

Chapter 853 - Secret

Roaring out in anger, Linus' friend lost all his reasoning as his strength steadily increased.

He moved with a rapid speed, shooting upwards, straight towards Jennifer.

Perceiving this, Jason was about to shout out a warning, only to see that she had instinctively released her two pairs of wings.

Flying away at the last possible moment allowed her to narrowly evade the young man, whose looks had changed to that of a mindless beast.

Quickly retracting her wings after she had evaded the attack, Jennifer looked upwards, where she saw that her darkness had been dispersed by sheer force.

This was not enough to startle her, but when she and Jason saw what happened a moment later, they couldn't help but stare at the young man and Linus in shock.

While Linus had taken a dive down in order to reach Jennifer moments after she had averted her trajectory, the young man had reached Linus.

His fingers had curled around Linus' neck, dragging him with until they reached the ceiling before the beast-like young man bashed Linus into it.

Somehow, the spar got out of control after only a few seconds had passed.

This was unexpected, and Linus, whose head was bashed into the ceiling, couldn't help but feel as if the situation had turned against him somehow.

It had been years since his friend had lost control owing to his soulbonds misbehavior, after all.

Thus, owing to the not so welcome surprise, Linus could only endure a few hits until his friend realized that he was hurting Linus and not an opponent.

And this was also something, he just noticed when Jason emerged next to him.

Jason was armed with Byakur in his hand while bloodlust was leaking from him and his aura.

Meanwhile Jennifer appeared on the other side of the beast-like young man.

She held a bright glowing sword enveloped in light in one hand, while there was another sword radiating gloomy darkness in her other hand.

Releasing her entire energy at once she moved the swords together to create an intense, repulsive reaction as she slashed out.

A sword beam of darkness and light that began to merge into a single source of energy was shot out from her swords that disintegrated.

An ear-splitting sound echoed through the dojo as the beam penetrated into the flesh of the ever-enlarging young man, who roared out in pain.

Yet, despite the shocking amount of energy that had been released by Jennifer, not even the young man's shoulder was cut off.

His right arm went limp as if it was simply hanging there, causing the young man to be unable to hold onto Linus while maintaining a steady hold of the ceiling too.

Thus, he let go of Linus, who fell to the ground, barely strong enough to even move his gray wings.

After landing on the ground, he took a few deep breaths, before staring at the ceiling.

Panting, he saw that Jason's sword had begun to enlarge, and pitch-black flames enveloped the blade.

At this moment, he noticed dozens of mana fluctuations around him as everyone was shooting towards his friend, who had lost control over himself.

However, at this moment, Linus couldn't help but stare into the flames Jason had manifested as he mumbled,

"There is no need for you guys to act…"

Before, he was fairly certain that Jason had bound powerful beasts to his soul, but after sensing the boost in his physique, he was sure of this fact.

Jason had barely taken a second to manifest the black flames that caused Linus' enhanced senses to tell him that he should leave as quickly as possible.

His tail had stiffened, and the same happened to his feathers as he witnessed how Jason exerted some sort of movement technique.

Linus had watched in a mixture of awe and jealousy as Jason inflicted more than a dozen cuts into his opponents, while the black flame entered his friend's body.

This shocked Linus for a moment, but even more so was the fact that his friend fell to the ground.

It was only a few moments later that the suddenly released bloodline quickly receded as he returned to his original form.

His clothes were torn in places, and a huge gash covered half of his upper body.

Yet Linus couldn't look at his friend with sympathy because his head was aching heavily.

Blood trickled down the side of his head, and only after taking three potions did the bleeding finally stop.

While Linus gulped down a few potions the others rushed to his friend after they had reassured him that nothing could happen anymore.

They were acting in a disciplined manner as if they were used to such incidents.

This gave Jason and Jennifer the hint that their soulbond contract with the Ninad beasts was possibly not as great as they had imagined.

'So not only is their physique unstable, and not fully compatible, but their control over the fusion is also not perfect?'

It was a simple conclusion based on the current scenario that Jason had made use of.

Just by looking at Linus for a few moments, Jason presumed that only a few people that bound Ninad beasts with a big personality, or other problematic characteristics could act like this.

However, this was just his assumption, and not proven, yet.

Nevertheless, Jason felt reassured that none of the spectators planned to attack them, while Linus approached them with a faint smile.

"I could have never expected you two to be so powerful. To think that Max's Berserker Bear soulbond went out of control because of your combined attack is truly unbelievable.

This means that you two would have been strong enough to kill him, not bad! Thank you for not killing him, you have some great soulbonds!"

Seeing the glint in Linus' eyes, Jason realized that he had attracted his attention, which was exactly what he had planned to do.

There were many unknown factors, but based on the given situation, Linus seemed to be one of the people with the highest authority in the Shiman camp.

And this was the case despite his cultivation base being lower than that of many other humans inside the camp.

In the end, this said a lot about Linus' potential, including his soul world's size, special traits, and so on.

After all, the severe wounds Linus had sustained were already fully healed minutes after their small spar ended.

Even with the potions he had gulped down, this shouldn't have been the case.

Making use of his Emperor Eyes, Jason saw a new type of mana coursing through Linus body, gathering around the areas that had been injured.

This was interesting, and by inspecting the entire situation thoroughly, including the fact that Linus acted like he was seriously injured and that he had to use potions to heal himself, Jason understood something.

'Either, he wants to hide at least one soulbond, its abilities, and special characteristics, or there is something else, which I cannot comprehend yet!'

Linus' enhancements were not much different from the others but according to the transmutations of his mana, he had more soulbonds than the rest of his group.

As such, he was unlikely to have bound a Ninad beast...or he bound a different one, a unique kind!

Even if that was not the case Jason was sure that Linus had a secret.

This could prove to be extremely dangerous for his stay inside the camp, and the plan of killing the Lord of Death!
