Chapter 770 - End Of The Meeting
Chapter 770 – End Of The Meeting
At least half an hour passed before the tribe chiefs had finally completed their discussion about the Sacred beast.
Some said that the old Sacred beast had died, and others were of the opinion that the new Sacred beast had not yet been appointed, which is also the reason the surrounding mana had lessened.
However, all of these were just assumptions because nobody had any evidence to support their claims.
As such, Jason was unable to trust their words as he would like to.
Nevertheless, even when he had combed through the villages twice, his Emperor Eyes hadn't spotted a single blessed beast.
This was unfortunate because the Sacred beast's capabilities and powers were apparently extremely strong.
Jason was not sure if the tribe chiefs were exaggerating, but if they weren't, the Sacred beast had the ability to foretell the future to a certain extent.
At the same time, it seemed to be extremely powerful in finding specific places, hidden injuries and damages on inanimate and animate things.
He was not sure how exactly the tribe chiefs had procured this information, but Jason simply accepted them as half true and half wrong.
In that way, he wouldn't be too astonished, if something about their words were to be true, or false.
Nonetheless, the ability to possibly foretell the future to a certain extent sounded extremely powerful.
Jason yearned to learn more about the blessed beast as he would have loved to bind a blessed beast with a foretelling ability to his soul.
Rather than the beast itself, he was far more interested in the fact that the Sacred beast should be able to foretell the date at which the Oceanfolk would initiate a large-scale attack!
That was the most important information they required, followed by the best location to ensure the safety of the other elder, sick or young villagers.
Jason believed that finding a proper location to hide without the Sacred beast was possible, while finding out the date at which the Oceanfolk would attack them was nearly impossible.
It was because of this fact that Jason would love to search for the Sacred beast.
Unfortunately, nobody had any intel about what kind of beast they were looking for, or if it was even alive.
Furthermore, Jason knew that if he were to witness the Sacred beast's abilities, nothing could hold him back in trying to bind it to his soul.
That was under the assumption that the Sacred beast's abilities were as strong as everyone described them to be.
He knew that this was wrong, but at the same time, his mindset had always been a mess when it came to soulbonds.
When his soulbonds noticed that Jason was interested in the Sacred beast, they immediately voiced out their jealous complaints, which was something he had to bear with.
They didn't want to share Jason with one more soulbond, and Jason could understand this.
However, at the same time, he had to become much stronger in order to protect himself and all of his soulbonds from being injured, or worse, getting killed.
Thus, his mind was always fixated on searching for new soulbonds, even if he had yet to figure out the true combat prowess of some soulbonds.
For example, Spyro, the Spiral Spirit would most likely be deemed as a failure, just because one couldn't directly see anything at which Spyro excelled.
Until now, the Spiral Spirit had not displayed exceptional prowess in any trait. While other Spiral beasts were able to create illusions, use psychokinesis, or possibly even turn into psychometrics with the use of specific techniques they already knew of since their birth, Spyro had nothing.
Those techniques were called Innate abilities of Spiral beasts, and because Spyro was a mutated Mana Spirit, it didn't have such techniques.
This was rather problematic owing to the fact that Spyr would have to learn everything from scratch if Jason was unable to procure a special technique that beings following the path of Spiral could use.
There were infinite possibilities to make use of spirit force, and a distinctly refined brain. Jason had already figured out the use of the latter because Spyro amplified his strength by sharing over 40% of its own, owing to their soul connection that had long since turned into a soul conjunction.
Since the day Jason had picked it, Spyro had become Jason's asset. While no one had wanted it, Jason had not only accepted it but also healed it of the seemingly incurable condition it faced.
It would do everything Jason said, and even if it felt useless right now, Jason always reassured Spyro that the path it took was the best for now.
Without a suitable spiral path technique Spyro might seem useless but Jason knew the Spiral Spirit's true value, and that was enough.
Meanwhile, he spent more than an hour racking his brains in order to think of a solution to find out the time of the Oceanfolk's surprise attack.
Yet, instead of solely paying attention to the time at which the Oceanfolk attacked, Jason also had to convince the Mewi to come up with a strategy to tackle the immense threat of the Oceanfolk's army.
If they were to participate in their tasks half-heartedly in the tasks he and Brell were to give them, they might as well give up before starting their preparations to establish their own small army, let alone to move everyone.
They had to believe his words, and owing to their faith in their Gods, Jason thought that using the Sacred beast might be the fastest way to make every single Mewi work as if their life depended on it, which was essentially the case!
Because he wanted everything to go as smoothly as possible, he felt like searching for the Sacred beast as it would help him in various ways, but the time he would require was at least two weeks.
Not knowing if he had even two weeks in hand, Jason felt a little bit reluctant, even more so because the relocation of the villages had yet to start.
Thus, sharing his personal goals with the other tribe chiefs, Jason wanted to come up with a proper plan that could be executed without him.
Brell was not the smartest, but he was also not dumb, which was something that could be seen in the way he handled the other tribe chiefs.
He remained calm, and the tone of his voice faintly changed according to the person he was talking to.
This was extremely helpful in order to control the group of tribe chiefs that were still reluctant to abandon their village after they had found a proper location to hide.
Jason could tell that it would take a while before they would finally find a good place to build a shelter that could be defended in the best possible way.
As such, while some would search for the best location to stay, the tribe chiefs were requested to start practicing martial arts once again.
At the same time, they were told to train the other Mewi that were ready to fight in order to protect their family, and race.
WIth that, the race gathering concluded a few hours later with a satisfying result that allowed Jason to return to the plan he had in mind before.
'So…shall I start my search for the Sacred beast?!'
