Chapter 443: Wheel of fate

The moment Jason emerged out of the spatial portal, he immediately sensed that something was wrong.

His surrounding was void of a single Ifrytor or Ifry because he and the others had emerged in the area where the high-mana density bombs exploded.

Nevertheless, when Jason entered the Yaslrn caves, he could tell that several hundred pairs of eyes stared at him.

At the same time, it felt like a complex mix of emotions consistent with anger, sadness, and fear was mixed in the beings that stared at him.

This caused goosebumps to cover his entire body as Jason's premonition intensified

Only a moment later, he heard an Ifry saying

"F*ck...he really did come!"

Turning around, Jason saw the several hundred Ifry that stared at him.

Ignoring everyone else, his mana eyes perceived that something within their soul had been ignited.

'Is that the soul contract they've with the Ifrytor? Is it activating itself?' He wondered, only to notice that not a single Ifrytor had been seen insdie the Yaslrn cave.

Looking around the Yaslrn cave in a hurry, Jason figured out what had bothered him before.

There was not a single Ifrytor whether alive or dead, and every single out of the remaining 100,000+ opponents were Ifry!!

Jason's bad premonition seemed to burn within him and it was not difficult for him to predict what was about to happen.

However, before he was able to do anything, Jason heard several Ifry crying out in a weird noise, attracting the attention of every single Ifry that was present in the Yaslrn cave.

Through his mana eyes, Jason noticed that every single Ifry was rushing towards the cavern hall he was inside.

Because of that, he wanted to leave the Yaslrn cave as soon as possible.

Unfortunately, the moment he turned around, Jason noticed that the spatial portals were dispering.

"F*ck!" He mumbled as he grit his teeth.

Others might not know what exactly the Ifry were about to do, but for Jason, it was not difficult to decipher that the Ifrytor had deceived them, without much difficulty at that!

'Will they sacrifice almost 200,000 Ifry, only to kill a few humans and Ariyor???' He wondered, only to recall what one of the Ifry had said

' 'He really did come'...does that mean...they just want to get rid of me??'

Jason was not sure whether he put himself too highly in the Ifrytor's regards, or it his assumption was on point.

Yet, when he looked around, trying to find a path to escape, Jason perceived that the surrounding Ifrys were staring at him.

Not only that, but they had begun to charge at him with fear glimmering in their eyes.

Their Creato flame was fully unleashed and Jason had to take Solaris into his mana core in order to envelop himself with a thick layer of black flames.

Those flames deflected most fire elemental-based attacks and he was able to calm down a little bit.

Unfortunately, this short moment of calmness was interrupted, when he saw how everyone next to him had been killed without being able to retaliate.

There were even two men at the peak Lique stage that had been killed and Jason couldn't help but gulp nervously.

However, instead of backing off, he unleashed Solaris' entire strength, without caring for the high mana consumption as both his and Solaris' stigma had been activated.

They glowed up and Solaris merged with Jason.

Black flames sprouted out of Jason's back and he summoned Byakur as he slashed out at the first Ifry that had emerged in front of him.

The former humans didn't even summon their soulbonds which was weird, but Jason couldn't care less about this as he utilized every little trace of strength within him to kill his opponents.

There were still more than 100,000 Ifry left and Jason was not sure if he could survive the ongoing onslaught of peak-Lique, let alone Low-Prismar stage Ifry!!

Fortunately, the first few Ifry were killed within seconds, which gave him the opportunity to take a deep breath.

However, at that moment, fear filled his golden-silverish eyes as the black flames enveloping him began to flicker violently.

'They're really bound to sacrifice themselves to kill me???'

The fight between him and the higher-ranked Ifry had yet to start when the first few Ifry at the Low-Lique stage began to sacrifice their and the Ascron's life force within them to nurture the Creato flame.

It would overclock within seconds and explode, killing everyone in the surrounding area!

However, that was not the worst Jason was perceiving!!

The worst was that every single Ifry was slowly beginning to sacrifice their life, and everything seemed to be because of him!

At their last moment, they stared at Jason, whose eyes were filled with desperation and fear!

What else should he feel, while being inside a cave that was filled with more than 100,000 Ifry that sacrificed their own life, only to kill him??

His mana eyes perceived a huge stream of mana and heat gathering within the Ifrys and Jason knew that he was about to panic.

He felt death approaching him and couldn't find a way to escape the torment energies that were about to be unleashed through the Ifry's suicidal explosion.

Fortunately, Solaris and his other soulbonds were able to calm him down in a few moments as he could already see how Solaris had enveloped every single Ifry in his surroundings!

It did this to absorb their mana and life force, trying to strengthen itself as fast as possible in order to survive the next minute by all means.

At that moment Jason realized that he had yet to die!

He was still alive and not dead, why should he give up already!

Only after he had given his all, Jason would allow himself to become desperate.

As such, with that in mind, he made use of the few seconds time he had until the first Ifrys were about to explode in order to devour as many Creator flames and drops of compressed life force as possible.

Yet, instead of targeting the Low-Lique Ifry which Solaris' flames took care of, Jason slashed Byakur at the weakened Peak-Lique and Low-Prismar stage Ifrys that were weakened due to the life force that had left their body before he tore out their mana cores.

They were burning and the sheer energy within them caused Jason to feel goosebumps all over his body.

Nevertheless, Solaris absorbed everything greedily and when there were only a few moments left before the first Ifry exploded, Jason ascended to the cavern hall's ceiling with terrific speed.

As he had reached the ceiling, Jason slashed at it several dozen times in rapid succession before a small hole, barely enough to contain a single person, was built.

'Please, let it work'

He squeezed himself into the hole before he ordered Solaris to retraced the wings on his back.

Instead, it should construct a small drill to dig deeper into the cavern wall.

At the same time, Jason released compressed flames in front of him, trying to negate the unbearable heat that had already filled the entire surrounding.

It was barely of any use and Jason was not sure how long he was able to endure it as Solaris notified him that it was unable to make use of the life force it had absorbed!

The sheer quantity and quality of energy radiating from the compressed drops of life force shouldn't have been enough to empower Solaris for the next few hours.

This notification was extremely bad and Jason was not sure how he would survive the explosions that were about to occur at any moment.

As such, he used his last resort and lifted the curse on his nullified soul world amplification, unleashing its full capabilities of 40%!

This increased his strength and mana core size by the amount of 27 drops of liquefied mana within an instant.

It was not much, no less to survive the torment energies wreaking havoc within with cavern hall, but it was better than nothing.

Jason's entire being shocked as the first explosions resounded through the cavern hall.

They didn't reach him yet, but the sheer number of explosions that followed suit, shocked the whole cave and it didn't take much more for it to collapse.

If Jason were, to be honest, it would be the best if the cave would collapse.

The falling stones and other objects could block the majority of the torment energies.

Unfortunately, this didn't happen and Jason's mana eyes perceived how the horrifying energies permeated the whole cave, obliterating everything in its way!

When Jason saw how every living being was being killed, without being able to retaliate, he knew that he was the next one to die!

Not even Solaris' flames were strong enough to even weaken the torment energy within the explosions and Jason's eyes widened in fear

'Is that how I die?'

However, instead of giving up on his life, Jason released his aura as a Celestia in addition to his stigma to their fullest, not holding back a single trace.

His mana core was almost dried of mana in an instant and Jason was not sure if that was enough to survive when something inside his soul world changed.

Scorpio, who had felt the most useless among Jason's soulbonds, began to transform out of a sudden.

It sensed that its time had finally come, the first time it might be useful for its master that had raised and trained him with all his love and capabilities.

There had never been a time, Scorpio didn't want to be with Jason and the time they had spent together was always filled with excitement and fun.

Yet, the moment Scorpio sensed Jason's perilous situation, that he was about to die any moment if nothing were to change, filled Scorpio with fear and desperation.

At that moment he revealed these emotions, Scorpio was able to feel everything about the soul world and Jason's entire being.

The Celestia aura enveloped Scorpio and his stigma began to burn in a dazzling glow.

It was as if a voice asked him, whether he would sacrifice his own life to save Jason or not!

This voice was an illusion and not real. It was solely Scorpio's mind that played him a trick as it felt like a huge amount of information filing its mind.

Scorpio was not sure what was going on, except for the fact that he was able to change Jason's fate, to protect him from the oncoming dangers!

At that moment, Scorpio's solidified soul conjunction with Jason ignited and it seemed to burn when Scorpio forced its way through Jason's entire being in order to do two particular things!

First, Scorpio forced Solaris to leave Jason's mana core.

And at exactly the same moment he forced Solaris' to transfer every little trace of life force and energy it had absorbed to him!

Jason could barely perceive what happened! When he noticed it, Jason was about to stop Scorpio's reckless behavior as the large body of Scorpio had already emerged in front of Jason.

At the same time, the explosions had reached him, burning through everything.

Scorpio's entire being was shining in a bright golden light that felt like Jason's Celestia aura!

His exoskeleton had changed from its sapphire color to that of a golden-silverish-colored exoskeleton.

The erupting Creato flames were not solely targeting Jason, but there was one fact he, Scorpio, and his other soulbonds were aware of.

Without Scorpio, all of them would have already died!

He had sealed the hole Jason and Solaris had created, taking on the entire impact of 100,000 exploding Ifry's at once.

At that moment, Jason and the others felt horrific pain coming forth from Scorpio and they were about to share his pain as something unexpected happened.

Scorpio severed the soul conjunction with Jason the moment Solaris had transferred the last trace of energy it had absorbed to him!

In the end, Scorpio was fully aware of what was about to happen to him, after he left the soul world!

He was about to die, in order to protect those that raised, loved, and protected him!
