Chapter 751: Moonlight

"Do you even know why we are attacking the valley right now? Isn't our Lord just sacrificing our lives with this charade? It's not like we can take over the entire valley in the next half a year or so until the army is ready!"

A being near the riverbank remarked looking at someone next to it.

"Are you sure you mean 'our lives'? We are just here to observe and leave once it is done. It's not like we are going to die, to begin with. So stop complaining, and investigate the combat prowess of the villages!"

The Deepsea Scia with golden scales around its ear scowled in return, looking at his brethren with disgust.

His brethren's statement was utter bullshit because the small attack waves were necessary in order to evaluate the combat prowess of the villages.

However, the small attack waves were important to make the villages believe that they would face the small waves every single time the oceanfolk attacked and that those waves wouldn't suddenly change into armies of more than a million beings charging at them at once.

This was something their Lord had thought of, but it would take some time to gather the attack force of more than a million units from all over their territory, which was a gigantic expanse across the vast ocean.

Thus, the Deepsea Scia couldn't help but feel that his comrade was utterly dumb, and it was only his talent that allowed him to become one of their elite.

However, the Deepsea Scia believed that this was an insult to their elite to even have someone like his comrade in their rows.

Unfortunately, they needed him because he would morph into a true monster once he was aggravated.

With that in mind, the Deepsea Scia could endure his comrade's words to a certain extent and felt relieved to leave in order to fulfill the task he had received from their Lord.

His task included investigating the situation, combat prowess, and other extraordinary incidents before reporting them to the Lord.

That was their mission, and nobody was supposed to know it.

However, how could they know that a tiny droplet of a Spiral Spirit was eavesdropping on their discussion, transmitting everything they had spoken to Jason who was faraway, and delighted to see the tides turn in his favor!

Jason knew that the information he had received was highly one-sided, and just from one perspective, which was definitely not what he wanted.

As such, when Jason had moved towards the river bank he had actively released some of Spyro's subsidiary bodies, trying to acquire some information.

Despite that, he never assumed that he would be able to get his hands on so much information in a short amount of time.

A few hours might have already passed since he started to fight, and he was utterly exhausted, but a faint smile emerged on Jason's lips.

The majority of beings had already been killed or severely injured, hence, Jason decided to retreat without hesitation.

He wasn't aware of the combat prowess of the two beings that had spoken with each other.

However, in order to be able to strategize leading the 'small' attack wave, they had to be amongst the strongest.

This indicated that they were at the Peak of the Prismar stage, and Jason knew that he was not strong enough to defeat them!

Because of that, Jason retreated with the information he had been able to acquire.

At the same time, he gathered all of Spyro's subsidiary bodies before initiating a killing spree while advancing towards a different village.

Earlier, Jason didn't know the exact location of where the other villages were situated, but with the path thousands of beings had created, this was not a problem anymore.

Rather, he could easily find his way to all the villages as long as the signs of the Oceanfolk people having advanced to a specific direction were visible.

Thus, he approached the second village, without thinking about returning to the previous one.

He was only allowed to stay there for two more days, either way, and there was nothing left for Jason to do for them.

Having protected the village with his utmost efforts, now he was free to leave as they were now supposed to protect themselves. He had shown them a way to fight and instilled some confidence in the fearful Mewi, but now it was upon them to safeguard their lives.

However, that was not something the other villages could do yet.

As such, Jason massacred all the beings he came across on his way to the second village and reached it less than an hour later.

It was on the verge of collapsing, and Jason thought that he was already too late, only to perceive the mana fluctuations of more than two hundred Mewi that made him sigh in relief.

Most of the Mewi were hiding within a cave, whose entrance was nearby the village, and only a few were left inside the village.

From what his Emperor Eyes perceived, these Mewi were trying to fight against the attack of hundreds of beings of the Oceanfolk.

Unfortunately, according to the remaining reserves of those Mewi, they were on the verge of death from exhaustion.

Sacrificing their life for their people was not something they were afraid of, as they continued to fight the onslaught of the oceanfolk.

This was not difficult to perceive, and when Jason noticed how many beings of the Oceanfolk had been killed by those Mewi, he felt that it would be a waste to let such brave warriors die.

Their combat prowess was much higher than that of the Mewi he had seen in the first village.

Thus, allowing Artemis to enter his mana core instead of Petri, he rushed to their aid as white-silverish wings manifested on his back.

Flapping them while exerting the Floating Sky movement technique, Jason was ready to catapult himself forward, which happened just a fraction of a second later.

Increasing his speed by fully unleashing the Celestia aura and the golden glowing Stigma, Jason crossed the distance of several hundred meters in seconds.

Following that, he arrived in front of the desperately fighting Mewi less than half a minute later, just when they were about to be annihilated.

Enveloping the Mewi in a dome of thick ice, he shielded them against the dozens of attacks before the ice dome crumbled to pieces.

These dozen attacks were, however, the last set of attacks the opponent could launch because Jason slaughtered every single one of them just a few moments later. Using more than a thousand small, yet razor-sharp icicles that were further enhanced by the moonlight affinity Artemis had comprehended after her evolution, he killed them mercilessly.

Afterward, he turned around to take a look at the several Mewi who were staring at him as if he was a ghost. This was confusing, but realising that his abrupt arrival might have been more shocking than he had expected, Jason simply gave them time to digest the fact.

Instead of being bothered by their gazes, he looked at their condition.

'I cannot heal them, their mana is too shallow...and potions don't work either' A few Mewi had been injured while working on constructing the walls and defensive traps, and even after he had handed them potions, they hadn't completely healed of their injuries.

Only mana helped them to recuperate faster, but accepting mana of someone other than their family was forbidden.

Because of that, Jason couldn't heal them, which was frustrating.

As such, he even thought about taking them into the cave to force their family to transfer some of their mana and help speed up the recovery process.

However, that wouldn't really change anything because the scarcity of mana might kill both parties.

Jason didn't have such a problem and he could absorb the mana from the surrounding further away, without affecting the mana reserve available to the villages.

It was at this moment that Artemis transferred him a specific thought before she reminded him of something that he had already forgotten.

"How could I forget that! The moonlight affinity has a healing property!! Artemis, you are the best!"

Proud of being praised, she made various noises within the mana core, only to calm down when she noticed that Jason was fully concentrating on the task ahead of him.

Approaching the severely injured Mewi, he ignored their frightened gazes only to exert the moonlight affinity.

Through this, a milky hue that glittered faintly, manifested in his hand just before Jason pressed the same hand onto the chest of the Mewi.
