It was surprising for everyone to hear that the Elvyr race, which was known for being the strongest highest race, had forcefully opened a world bridge to Argos.
The planet was worthless to them, after all!
However, it looked like Jason's existence was worth the efforts to do something as painstakingly as creating a world bridge that allowed being at the Prismar stage with nine small solidified prismarine crystals to step through it!
This had astonished many, including Fasro and the other Ariyor, but there seemed to be something more important which the Elvyr race's embassy was hiding from them!
They didn't bother to explain anything but Fasro thought that he was able to see a glint of fear and reverence in the Elvyrs' eyes when they spoke about Jason.
'Do they know more about Jason? Maybe even his real origin?'
This intrigued Fasro, but he knew that it was unlikely for the Elvyrs to reveal more information.
However, what had been even more astonishing was the fact that the Evlyr race seemed to be curious about Emily too!
Nobody had expected this, yet, contrary to everyone's expectations, Emily's soulbond and not the girl herself was what interested them.
According to the translator of the Elvyrs embassy, all kinds of rocs were seen as sacred beasts by the Elvyr race.
They were not only extremely rare to find, but also said to be on the brink of extinction!
It was unknown how there could be a roc with the poorest bloodline on Argos, but their interest in Emily, who was the master of the roc increased consistently.
Their knowledge about rocs was vast and it was only a matter of time before they tried to lure in Emily, who had the same innate affinities as the Elvyr race; A wind affinity.

Yet, the Elvyr, who had spoken to her in the human tongue, offered an advanced soul contract that prevented it from lying, otherwise, it would die immediately.
This made Emily curious about why exactly the Elvyr race wanted to use such extents, only to lure her in.
However, to think that their purpose was solely to take the roc back to their race's origin planet, to groom and nurture it, was something Emily couldn't understand.
She was unable to grasp how important her soulbond could be, to a race whose strength was something she was unable to even imagine at that.
It was weird, yet the offer she received, allowed her to escape from Argos!
Her talent was also not bad, and she began to wonder if it was her fate to leave mankind, that had never been good to her, in the first place.
Only Jason, Shane, and her master, Dalia had helped her unconditionally, but now only Jason was left.
As such, she had wanted to stay by Jason's side to support him mentally.
Unfortunately, this was easier said than done and there was no way for Emily to break through the wall Jason had erected around his heart.
Nobody would be able to tell what Jason was feeling, except he himself and his soulbonds!
Meanwhile, Jason had subconsciously entered his soul world, where he saw that Solaris devoured something.
Jason's eyes widened and his anger erupted when he saw that it was the silver origin flame, he had forbidden Solaris to eat.
window.pubfuturetag = window.pubfuturetag || [];window.pubfuturetag.push({unit: "64cc9e79c7059f003e4ad4b0", id: "pf-5109-1"})Solaris, who had noticed Jason's appearance quickly transmitted several thoughts towards its master before something worse could happen.
The black origin flame had never felt as fearful as by the sight of Jason and it was glad when his anger dissipated as quickly as it had emerged.
"The silver origin flame allowed you to devour it? Dalia's last present? What kind of bullshit is that?"
Jason couldn't grasp the situation at all, and it was as if his entire being was frozen in place.
Since his master had died, his thoughts were chaotic and he had been unable to understand anything around him.
There was just emptiness in his mind and a new deep hole in his heart!
It was only when Solaris transmitted that devouring the silver origin flame was extremely beneficial, enhancing its purification ability while adding a new, unknown ability that Jason looked at Solaris again.
'Solaris inherits the silver origin flame's disguising ability?'
This was good and, but he couldn't help but just nod his head without any vigor as he left the soul world once again.
At the same time, he had ignored Artemis, who had approached Jason, trying to console him.
She hadn't been close with Shane and Dalia, but Artemis was fully aware of how important they had been to Jason.
Thus, she left the soul world with Jason, emerging in her small form in order to stay by his side or to be precisely squeezed on his shoulder.
While Jason had been mindlessly staring at the graves in front of him, Fasro, Midra and a few members of the embassy had arrived in front of the graveyard.
window.pubfuturetag = window.pubfuturetag || [];window.pubfuturetag.push({unit: "663633fa8ebf7442f0652b33", id: "pf-8817-1"})They didn't enter it in order to respect the deceased and remained at the same position they've been standing for more than two hours before Jason and Emily left.
Emily saw that the Elvyrs and Ariyor were waiting for Jason and took a step back, allowing Jason to encounter them first.
One of the Evlyr stepped forward introducing himself in the human tongue
"Hello Jason Stella, my name is Lusan Ars. It might sound sudden, but we have been assigned to bring you to someone. If you are fine with it, we will depart as soon as possible."
This should have been astonished Jason, but he simply stared at the Elvyr with his eyes that had become a mixture of golden-silverish and dark-crimson-colored.
Clearing his throat, Jason answered in the universal language
"I don't need anyone to bring me somewhere. My father asked for me, am I right? If the Elvyr race does not want to support the human race in defending their planet against the Drake alliance, it might be better for you to leave this planet.
I have something to take care of and I won't leave Argos before everything is finished!
Even then, I won't meet my father, simply because I don't feel the need to do so.
My current state shouldn't be something my father's race would accept, at least I can feel that it would be like this.
With that being said, I'll reject going back!"
Emily was unable to understand Jason, but she could tell that he said something important because the tension around them increased.
Meanwhile, the small group of the Elvyr embassy was unable to understand what exactly held Jason on Argos. He had the chance to meet his father, a Celestia, who could simply nurture him without any issues after all!
They were divine beings after all!
At the same time, they could also understand Jason's decision to a certain extent. His current state was extremely bad, considering that the Celestia had told them to take care of Jason, preventing him from becoming an Infernal Celestia.
As such, they didn't know what exactly they should do right now.
"Your state is really not the best...but your father could help you, otherwise you might end up as an Infernal Celestia!!"
While Jason began to wonder what an Infernal Celestia was, Fasro's eyes widened as he turned towards Jason
"You are a halfling from the CELESTIA race???"
Jason didn't expect Fasro to be so loud, but he just nodded his head, not denying anything before he turned back to Lusan.
"My current state is not that different from before. There is only the bloodlust and the intent to kill that is forcefully spreading through my Celestia bloodline.
However, feeling like this after what had happened should be normal as a human...shouldn't it?
Furthermore, I don't think about abandoning my other half, just because my father wants to see me!
I won't abandon mankind...that's the least I can do…"
His expression worsened and his expression changed for the first time, turning sad before he said
"If your embassy wants to return without having achieved your mission, you may return. But I will die during the next months because the majority of big clan heads have been killed.
Otherwise, I would appreciate the Elvyr race embassy's help!"
