God's Eyes (Web Novel)chapter 181: opportunity

Reading through the message, Jason was sure that the news about the sudden materializing rift already spread through Cyro-City.

He couldn't really comprehend what exactly the rift had to do with the special combat class and the need to cancel it for the next few days, but he would find out sooner or later.

Because it was already time to go to school, Shane opened a spatial portal for him to leave the underwater hideout safely.

Appearing in front of the blue shining lake, Jason turned towards the school´s direction, before he started to run in order to loosen up his muscles.

While running, Jason tried circulating his mana through the body while utilizing his affinities at the same time.

Doing so would make it easier for him to comprehend the best way to move around while circulating his mana and utilizing affinities at the same time.

Learning this was important to increase his combat prowess in the future, as stopping in his tracks to utilize an affinity perfectly was a waste of time and could lead to serious injuries.

Jason didn't like wasting any potential or opportunities, which caused him to practice multitasking with many different actions at the same time for the remaining weeks.

It was extremely difficult, but he slowly began to see the first results, because there was no need to stop running while utilizing his affinities anymore, even though his capabilities were still limited to a certain extent.

Thinking back on his strength four months ago, he felt even better, as he already began to overwhelm some of the stronger peers within his school.

There was still a long way for him to go in order to be comparable with prodigies from either Astrix, another archipelago, or Canir, but Jason was more than confident in doing so, thanks to his unique soul and special eyes.

Arriving at the combat arena, there were many students from all years in front of the door, gossiping with each other and he could hear that almost everyone talked about the canceled special combat class and rumors about a materializing rift.

Jason was also curious about the other students' opinions in the beginning, but this changed once he figured out that not a single one had any proven information.

Furthermore, they exaggerated the facts they heard and Jason also noticed certain students uttering complete nonsense about the appearance of an Abyss-ranked rift.

Even the most naive student understood that it was extremely unlikely if not impossible for an Abyss-ranked rift to appear within the dome without turning the whole island into a state of chaos.

Furthermore, the amount of mana required to materialize such a rift would probably drain the complete mana vein below Cyro-City or maybe even Astrix completely without leaving a single mana particle behind.

If there was a real threat to Cyro-City, there wouldn't have been such a school announcement, as the normal combat classes wouldn´t go on just like that.

Seeing his classmates, Jason smiled lightly, as it had been quite some time since he saw them, while Artemis attracted a lot of attention, causing the surrounding youths to gather around him.

There were times that he disliked Artemis' special appearance and right now was such a moment, as he didn't want to attract unnecessary attention to himself.

From further away he noticed his class´s top students glaring at him, while Leo didn´t look about Jason at all, because he also entered the special combat class as the only top student.

He knew about Jason´s and Seron´s combat prowess which shocked him extremely but more than that, it strengthened his resolve to become stronger.

This accelerated his mana absorption speed by a large margin, as he focused much more, allowing him to enter the 7th Adept rank after enduring the boring mana absorption and refining process for multiple hours a day.

With his soulbond, his strength was comparable to an 8th Adept, almost a common 9th Adept rank, while his combat prowess was nothing to joke at.

But even if that was the case, he wouldn't dare to challenge Jason, because he noticed that this black-haired classmate with golden eyes was just too monstrous.

With his elemental affinities, he could easily defeat individuals at the same rank, while Jason´s physique seemed to have reached the high adept rank, even though his mana core was barely at the 3rd Adept rank.

After escaping the perilous bewitching the abyssal effect caused, Leo was able to think much calmer, without accumulating too much rage, as his prior anger management was somewhat unstable and easier to burst out instead of him being able to calm down.

Meanwhile, the other students gazed at Jason with disdain, as he was favored by their teacher in their opinion while the exact same applied for Seron.

Before they could do anything, Mr.Greil arrived at their combat arena hall, causing the whole hall to quiet down within seconds, as everyone clearly remembered the terrifying mana amplified finger snaps.

Suddenly, Jason noticed Seron appearing next to him with an expectant expression, causing him to wonder what exactly was about to happen.

Clearing his throat, Till announced.

"Hello, dear students of Class 54. It's been a long time since I taught your combat class and I was told to do that for the next few days once again.

But before that, everyone should be curious about the recent events and if there really is a materializing rift within Cyro-City, as the rumors said.

The answer is simple: Yes there is, but we are fortunate enough because it is only a four-star rift with restrictions preventing individuals stronger than the Magus and magical rank to enter or leave the rift.

This means Cyro-City won't have to face another incident comparable to the goblin attack, as long as the military observes the rift.

As all of you should already know because it's common knowledge, most rifts that connect other plans to Igra have many treasures due to their thick and compressed mana on the other side.

Some of you might want to give it a try on the other side.

Keep in mind that your strength is nothing compared to the average combat prowess inside the four-star rift.

Maybe the more powerful third-grade students will enter the four-star rift due to their high combat prowess, which allows them to kill unblemished beasts.

If any of you wants to enter the rift, at least prepare enough defensive measures in order to survive against unblemished beasts with the possibility to flee from magical ranked beasts, but I won't take any responsibility if anyone dies just like that.

Furthermore, for these naive youths that want to enter the four-star rift with their puny strength, alone and unprepared. Please bear in mind that your parents raised you up with all their love. Don´t leave them just because of a few possible treasures.

Staying alive is more important than a few treasures!"

With Till ending his speech, Jason began to ponder…

`Should I really give the rift a try?? But alone it´s suicidal like Shane and Till already said….Wait?`

Alone?! Who said he was alone? With an idea popping up in his mind, Jason´s mind rattled and it was as if his brain was burning from all kinds of possible choices and paths he could take, as a certain idea began to establish itself in his mind.

`It should be worth a try….probably?` Jason told himself, as he perceived the opportunity that jumped into his lap.
