God's Eyes

Jason was neither able to see through the mana vein nor could he estimate how large the whole vein was.

However, one thing was for sure!

He wouldn't even be able to absorb the whole mana vein with his current absorption speed, even if he had several hundred years.

Furthermore, the mana density and purity were shocking, which allowed Jason's absorption and refining speed to increase by a small margin.

Looking around in shock, he couldn't help but passively absorb mana without wasting a single second.

Jason's eyes itched and his instincts told him that he had to absorb as much mana as possible inside his eyes if it was possible, and there was not really something preventing him to do so.

Even if his mana core could be filled by a small margin, Jason felt that it was more important to absorb as much pure mana inside his eyes, which he started to initiate as he followed Till and Seron.

Seron was extremely excited and barely able to suppress his emotions which Till and Jason noticed, and both couldn't help but smile, even if Till's train of thoughts still lingered around Jason, even if it was highly likely that nothing bad would happen.

In the end, he couldn't help but hope that Shane would come and rescue his disciple, but if the worst-case occurred, he would have to do something, otherwise, not only one of the most talented prodigies he ever saw would be forced into submission by the Drake family, but it would also destroy the eliquirium between all big families once Jason would be nurtured, which was not something Till wanted.

If the latter happened, Jason would be a target for all big families and it was not unlikely to be assassinated or openly murdered.

Till was not even sure why exactly the other big families acted so hostile against prodigies that signed a soul contract with any other big family, but there seemed to be something important about it.

The only reasons he could imagine were that it destroyed the eliquirium between all big families on Canir, but on the other side, Till thought that a talented prodigy might even be able to change the tides against the foreign races, which was the reason for him to be so confused.

In the end, the balance between all big families was exactly what held mankind back.

It also allowed the foreign races to suppress the big family without any problems.

If they worked together and nurtured the most talented youth of all families, they could soar much higher and maybe even start to revolt against the foreign races!

Sighing deeply, he looked at Jason, who looked interested as he noticed that the golden-eyed youth absorbed the mana in his surrounding greedily.

However, instead of annexing the mana normal with a whole circulation through his body before it would enter his mana core, Jason simply absorbed the mana inside his eyes which Till could only eye weirdly.

'Even if he is talented, Jason is still a weirdo and a mystery…..'

Jason meanwhile didn't notice that Till stared at him and neither did he perceive Seron's behavior because he solely focused on his surroundings that were filled with several dozen outlines.

These outlines were enveloped in all kinds of colors, telling him that there was something valuable all around him.

While he presumed most of these enveloped outlines to be ingredients or other magical treasures, there were also a few smaller and larger outlines, moving around with a shocking speed.

Somehow, Jason felt both comfortable and uncomfortable in the narrow tunnel they currently walking along in order to enter the Earth Dragon's territory as he perceived several dense purple colors in front of him, with a handful of faint blue enveloped beings further away.

Estimating them to be either extremely old Earth Dragons that broke into the Lord or other Earth Dragons that had the potential to barely enter the Lord rank, Jason couldn't help but feel that some Earth Dragons were truly powerful.

However, this was not what caused him to be truly shocked and uncomfortable because he had Till Greil next to him who was already at the Lord stage at his age of barely 56 years.

To be able to enter the Lord rank at such a young age, Till required lots of resources and a terrifying talent.

Thus Jason didn't think that the Earth Dragons below the surface would be a huge problem for him to handle.

Other than that, the Earth Dragons had a pact with the big families, and as long as nobody breached it, everything would be fine.

To break their pact, all Earth Dragons that lived around there would be severely injured, making it impossible for them to fight against Till head-on.

Nevertheless, it was better to be careful than too arrogant which Jason already noticed firsthand, several times.

As such, he continued to look around carefully, when his eyes widened slightly as his jaw dropped to the ground.

Only now with his mana eyes being supplied by dense, pure mana could he gaze inside the mana vein.

It was barely a tiny gap he could see, but there was a terrifying, dense, yet suppressed azure color flickering inside the mana vein with a trace of silver mixed in between.

'What the hell is that?!' He thought shocked, halting his steps to solely focus on the existence within the mana vein.

However, the more he looked at the mana vein, the more painful it became and Jason could only avert his gaze after several moments when he saw several dark blue hues at the mana vein junctions far away from azure, silver colored being.

Till noticed that Jason stopped walking and seeing his expression, he was immediately alarmed as he was aware that Jason's mana eyes were extremely terrifying.

"What is going on Jason? Can you see something odd?"

Shaking his head by Till's question in order to get back to his senses, he smiled lightly, as he asked

"The mana vein has existed since the mana outbreak, right? Has there ever been a problem with it?"

Hearing this, Till pondered for a moment, as he shook his head, denying his latter question.

"As far as I know the mana vein existed since the mana outbreak, but there has never been an issue. Rather than that, it has always been extremely beneficial for everyone on Astrix because it allowed Cyro-City's citizens to absorb much more mana than other Islands' capitals because everyone is forced to use the magic dome.

Thanks to the mana vein, Astrix's strongest youngest generation is always gathered around Cyro-City which is an additional perk for the Drake family.

The sole disadvantages are beast tides, like the Goblin siege that happened not long ago, if we were to disregard the foreign races that could appear everywhere just like that, which happened often enough."

Listening carefully, Jason deducted, that nobody knew about the terrifying existence which most likely hibernated inside the mana vein for 300 years.

He never saw such colors from a living being or something manufactured, and the only rough assumption Jason could do, was that the Azure color belonged to the Monarch rank, which was roughly comparable to the sovereign rank, while the silver color was something he couldn't get the hang on.

'Is that the color for the potential above the Monarch/Sovereign rank?!' He wondered and thought about it for a moment, it had to be the case which shocked him.

If the hibernating beast were to wake up, not only Astrix's citizen but humanity altogether would perish.
