God's Eyes

Jason felt as if his luck had left him for good, and threw him into a pit of fire as he heard the cold voice behind him once again.

"Variant, I asked you a question?! What is the reason for your intrusion into the City lord's abode???"

Even though he had heard the question both times, how should he be able to answer the question with three razor-sharp blades at his neck?

One was slightly below his Adam's apple, which prevented him from gulping down his saliva, let alone saying anything.

When Jason didn't answer, the female warrior's energy fluctuations began to radiate anger which he sensed clearly.

As such, he had to act quickly so he did the only thing he could think of.

Releasing a thread of mana from his body, he shot it towards the female warrior who spoke coldly to him.

This alarmed the three women around him, only for Jason to transmit his voice quickly.

[I can't speak, the blades!!]

After that, he sensed the blades stopped digging into his flesh, only to hear a whisper, "Oh.."

Fortunately, this was followed by the female warrior retracting her weapon as she ordered,

"Retract your weapons!"

The other two followed suit and distanced their weapons from Jason a moment later, which gave him the opportunity to breathe properly.

Touching his neck, he felt three gashes, and the tip of his fingers was smeared with red which made him shake his head.

In order to stop the bleeding, Jason quickly circulated mana through his neck before the cold voice resounded behind him once again.

"You can talk now, so give me a proper reason for appearing in a forbidden area, or you will be punished for intruding into the City Lord's abode!!"

Jason began to sweat slightly when he heard this because there was no proper reason, to begin with.

Nervous, his eyes widened again, and only did he take a glance at the three women, only to notice that there was something special about all of them.

'A human with mana veins, a Devir with a holy affinity instead of darkness, and an Aeus with the blood affinity…are all of them Variants?'

From their outer appearance, the three women looked like what members of their race typically looked like, without a single noticeable trait to differentiate them from the rest.

However, their innermost foundation was different, which would have interested Jason under normal circumstances because Variants of a race didn't simply show up out of nowhere.

Unfortunately, he had, by no means, a chance to question the three women.

On the contrary, he was struggling to come up with an acceptable answer that wouldn't make them stab him for good this time.

In the end, he decided to answer honestly, because lying was not useful right now. Thus, he revealed his intention.

"I...just entered Lanro today, and I wanted to rent a hall to stay in so as to forge weapons, concoct potions and inscribe runes...As such, I was searching for a large place to lodge for a few weeks…

When I found the numerous halls inside the encirclement of the stone wall, I decided to search for the owner of the lands because there was no sign forbidding me to enter it…

I guess I should have purchased a city guide… I guess it's too late to apologise for my blunder"

Jason tried to ease the tension with a faint smile, but the expression of the female Aeus was the same as her voice- ice cold.

As such, he tried to find a way out of his situation, only to blurt out an apology before he ended his short explanation.

Despite that, it didn't seem to help a lot, as the Manyr with a mana vein suddenly said,

"He doesn't release any ill-intentions and according to his Cultivation base, it's unlikely for him to be a spy, let alone an assassin…Should we question him some more, or do you really intend to punish him?

You could say that he is one of us, you called him Variant too, didn't you?"

Hearing that he was about to be rescued, Jason felt immense gratitude towards the female human, only to hear the Devir speaking,

"We have been told to punish intruders, even if they accidentally enter our territory. At least, we shouldn't severely injure him, or do anything like that.

From the looks of it, he doesn't seem to lie either. This chapter is updated by novelenglish.net . (f)ire

In the worst case, we can simply ask him to show his capabilities in the three basic auxiliary occupations, and if he lies, we can torture him a little bit. That would serve as a lifelong lesson which he will never forget, that's fair, isn't it?"

The last few words were directed at Jason, and despite feeling that the female Devir wanted to torture him secretly, without being deemed as cruel, he nodded his head!

Showing his capabilities in the three basic auxiliary occupations was the best way to express his credibility and that he was unlikely to have lied.

He was not sure what kind of punishment his accidental intrusion deserved, but not being killed was already a good start, with preventing being severely injured turning into a nice bonus.

'How the hell am I always finding the worst kind of places to enter at the stupidest time…?'

Jason didn't like the fact that he seemed to be looked down upon by the three women who were simply talking to each other as if he didn't exist.

However, he was also aware that their cultivation base was strong enough to smash him into a pulp without moving a single finger.

Their aura should be more than enough to do that!

As such, fleeing was no solution at all.

This was sad, but Jason could accept this relatively easily because it felt like he wouldn't get injured.

Rather, it was as if he might be able to change the tides, turning the misfortune into an opportunity.

It was only a thought that followed his gut feeling, but the more he thought about it, the clearer Jason's mind became.

As such, Jason's mood heightened a lot, and his worries dispersed as he asked,

"Should I start forging here, or is there a specific place I should go to forge?"

This question made the ice-cold Aeus throw an angry retort at him while continuing to stare daggers at him.

"Didn't you want to show all three basic auxiliary occupations? Did you lie to us earlier?"

Jason was taken off-guard by this because the Aeus's question was extremely stupid.

He felt like punching her but knew that she was just testing his patience. At least he hoped so, otherwise, he was not sure how he should cope with someone like her.

'How should I answer that now?!'

Trying to come up with a response, he pondered for a moment as he answered,

"I wanted to forge a weapon while using my own concocted inscription solution to inscribe runes onto it…"

This answer caused the human and Devir to look at the ice-cold Aeus with a smirk, only for her to turn away. Cursing herself inwardly at the stupidity of her question, she shook her head and regained her composure a moment later to order coldly,

"Just follow us. We will bring you to a place!"

With that, she soared into the sky followed by the female human, only for the Devir to look at them as she mumbled with a sigh,

"Girls...you know that you are leaving a potential intruder alone, and he cannot even fly….he is at the Prismar stage!"

Despite mumbling, the Devir's voice was clearly heard by the two other women, who froze mid-air, only to turn around with red cheeks.

However, only a moment later, black flames spurted out of Jason's back as he shot into the air, dumbfounding the three women.

'He definitely has great control over his affinity!' The three women thought, giving Jason's earlier statement a little bit more credibility.

Initially, Jason didn't want to show Solaris to others, but that had changed now that he was forced to forge in front of the three female Variants.

As such, he might as well reveal his great affinity control a few minutes before they would have figured it out, either way!
