Chapter 576: Alone

Destroying the soul pact was not as difficult as Jason expected it to be and was quite easily done.

After he had overwhelmed Ben's soul, and become his soulbond contractor, the enslavement soul pact lost some of its potency.

This prevented Tom, who had become Ben's master owing to the enslavement soul pact's regulations, to order Ben to kill himself, or Jason.

Even though that was interesting, it was more important for Jason to figure out the exact procedure of destroying an enslavement soul pact.

Thus, Jason used his Emperor Eyes to perceive everything about Ben, his new soulbond's soul and state.

A few minutes passed and it was only then that Jason started moving. Using the soul connection he and Ben had, Jason transferred some of his aura to Ben in order to envelop the imprint on his youngest soulbond's soul.

This imprint was in fact the enslavement soul pact.

Once the soul pact was enveloped, it began to squirm violently, which caused Ben to feel unbearable pain.

As such, Jason stopped a moment later, before he started to ponder once again.

A few seconds later he released his soul world, increasing the transferred soul energy as well as his dominance over the soul connection.

With that, Jason started to use his own soul to nearly annex Ben's, before he began to push the soul imprint made by the enslaving soul pact out.

This was only possible because Jason's soul thread had entered the inner parts of Ben's soul, allowing him to slowly push the foreign imprint out of Ben's soul that was oblivious to everything that was happening.

Because it was not Ben who actively pushed out the soul imprint, the enslavement soul pact didn't activate itself, and Jason could remove it as if it was a small foreign object inside one's body.

No scar was left behind on Ben's soul, and the soul imprint that required energy to be empowered started to disintegrate.

In the end, it had only been possible to remove the enslavement soul pact because Jason's soul was superior to Ben's and that the young God's child's soul had been slightly altered the moment he had been bound to Jason's soul!

This slight alteration made a huge difference to the soul pact, making everything in the following steps possible.

The entire procedure took less than ten minutes and Jason retracted his aura, the overflowing soul energy, and the soul thread that had entered Ben's soul. It had been a painful experience for Ben causing an uncomfortable feeling within the young man.

Nevertheless, it was a necessary step and it was not long after that Jason terminated the soulbond contract with Ben, releasing him from his forced state of submission.

The termination didn't hurt their souls, as the connection between them had not yet stabilized and everyone was able to return to their routine life as if nothing had happened.

This was the most important, and the only downside was that Ben was currently feeling exhausted.

A few hours of rest would be more than enough, and he would be ready to fight in the sixth group of the battle royale without any issues.

Meanwhile, Jason was already deep in thoughts, with a vibrant smile on his face as began to visualize how to make use of the knowledge they had acquired.

It was only when Merl Arths grasped his shoulders while saying his name several times that Jason regained his senses, returning to the training hall.

"Jason! Finally, you're back. Tell me, how did you destroy the enslavement soul pact on Ben?!?"

Merl's eyes were gleaming brightly and he had never seen so much vigor and determination in the old man's eyes which caused Jason to look at him in confusion.

However, instead of holding anything back, Jason looked around, trying to perceive the human powerhouse's facial expressions and emotional hue that enveloped them before he explained everything in a detailed manner.

Because Jason was not sure which clan was working with which, he could only trust the minute details his Emperor Eyes could perceive, hoping that the God's Children and six powerhouses wouldn't misuse the knowledge they acquired from him.

If an enslavement soul pact could be destroyed as easily as Jason described it, the God's Children should be able to do the same with all kinds of soul pacts as long as their soul was stronger than both sides who had signed the soul pact!

There were all kinds of clauses that could be added, preventing the removal of a soul pact, and one simple clause would be that an enslaved being has to prevent being soulbond contracted by all means possible.

Jason had already figured this out which could be annoying for the future.

Thankfully, it didn't involve Jason and his mission to save the Flers!

That was something he knew for sure as both Greg and Malia had already told him what kind of clauses their soul pact had!

After Jason had explained everything in a detailed manner, he couldn't help but add that it was only his experience and that it could work differently for others.

There were too many unknown factors, and everyone else agreed to this.

However, what Jason didn't tell anyone was that he had sensed something deep within his soul world.

To be precise, it had been within his soul world core, something he couldn't comprehend yet.

Despite the mysterious unknown, Jason was not scared at all. Instead, he felt an overly familiar sensation brushing past his soul, touching it lightly, only to seemingly disperse.

He couldn't describe the feeling, but he could barely calm down himself as he left the soul world, without realising that the golden scorpion on his soul world was gleaming faintly.

Once Jason was done reporting his experience, Merl and the other human powerhouses began to lecture Jason and the God's children because they had been doing something that could have gone horribly wrong.

Jason was aware of this and the others too, but they simply heard their scolding, knowing that Merl and the rest had just been worried.

Hours passed by and Ben had recuperated from his exhaustion just before the first battle royale was about to start.

They had already entered the colosseum and Jason had finished his preparations before he walked inside the arena, where the other prodigies were already waiting.

Being stared at by 49 glaring pairs of eyes was not really comfortable, and Jason noticed that even Jarid was glaring at him while smiling inwardly at the same time.

This looked somewhat grotesque but instead of saying anything, he retained his calm and serious attitude.

The tension within the arena was apparent but that was not only caused because of Jason.

Even though the Olympus federation was one organization consisting of multiple migrating races, every race had its own origin and they had been forced to collude with each other in order to survive.

Combining their forces had been the best move they could have done.

However, this didn't mean that any of the migrating races wanted another one from procuring more resources than they could obtain.

As such, the liberation tournament was not only a celebration to have migrated to Argos but also a competition for every race to show that they were stronger than the remaining races within the Olympus federation!
