Jason had never changed diapers, but it was less problematic than he thought, and he got the hang of it pretty quickly.
Other than that, feeding her was pretty easy as she was already able to eat solid food.
Thus, after she ate something and Jason had changed her diapers, Anna fell into a deep slumber despite her efforts to fight against the sudden drowsiness that overwhelmed her.
Meanwhile, Jason flew back to the center of all three capitals where he assumed Fasro and Lusan would be.
He was not sure about that, but it was highly likely that he would find them there.
His mind was still trying to comprehend how transmigration was possible, but he simply had no idea what kind of existence was strong enough to accomplish something like this!
'The Celestia race should be strong enough to allow someone to transmigrate...I think? Maybe there are some techniques mighty beings have developed? Who knows?... It's not like my current knowledge is helpful...in any way!'
While Artemis was as confused as Jason, Solaris didn't have any thoughts about the transmigrator who had entered the small girl's body.
Other than that, there was still Petri, but he was still evolving. From the looks of it, Solaris had absorbed and transferred enough life force to him, allowing Petri to complete his evolution in the next few months.
This was great and Jason couldn't help but anticipate how strong Petri would become.
The petrification serpent was a physically attributed beast and didn't rely much on mana. Jason assumed that Petri's focus would remain on this aspect during his evolution too, so he was a little bit excited to see the final result.
Additionally, some curses were likely to receive an amplification from the evolution as well, but, if Jason were to be honest, he had no idea what was going on.

Given their circumstances, it would just be a nuisance, and based on what they'd heard from other foreign races as well as the information they'd gathered so far, only humans had a soul word.
Anna Ynal, who had been disappointed about the place and body she had been transmigrated to, had changed her opinion drastically during the last few hours.
Considering that she had seen beasts supporting humans in rescuing others, and was surprised that Jason could manifest the wings of the owl that had followed him, she could comprehend that her new life might not become as miserable as she had assumed.
She was still trying to come to terms with the way she had died, but there were too many things she couldn't understand.
'Why did they betray me? Did I do something wrong? How did they even follow me into the secret realm I had entered? Did someone back them up? Were only those close to me involved or did other races have a hand in my death as well?'
Jason didn't know what Anna was dreaming about but she wriggled in his arms during her sleep and her little baby face looked nervous.
Thus, he released his aura to envelop her while releasing a minuscule amount of mana which he spread through Anna's small body to release her tension.
The amount of mana was not even enough to be labeled a drop in the ocean, but it was more than enough to pacify the restless baby, while his aura seemed to soothe and help her dream about something better.
She finally stopped squirming and nuzzled her face against his chest, returning to blissful sleep.
Only a few hours had passed since he left Kadran that he perceived familiar mana fluctuations.
There were a few heads of big clans who he had encountered earlier, and they seemed to be talking about something.
window.pubfuturetag = window.pubfuturetag || [];window.pubfuturetag.push({unit: "64cc9e79c7059f003e4ad4b0", id: "pf-5109-1"})Jason hoped that their discussion would revolve around helping humans and not twist the situation and turn it into an opportunity to reign over mankind.
Fortunately, the latter didn't seem to be the case and they greeted him in an extremely polite manner when his feet touched the ground.
This made him uncomfortable, but after he heard that they seemed to have spoken about him, Jason understood that they'd seen him summon the replicas of the Gates of Hell.
He was not really worried about that because the human race was not aware of what they'd seen!
Even Jason didn't know the entire truth, but what he knew was that the big clans' assumptions were pretty simple!
They were under the impression that his rage had manifested an illusion of something grand in order to intimidate the other races.
In the end, the Gates of Hell had only released their intimidating and ominous aura, and the real thread was yet to be unlocked.
However, what made everyone praise and even revere him a little bit was the fact that he had been able to summon a terrifyingly strong and massive crescent blade beam!
So far, no human had been capable of absorbing the required mana to manifest an attack like the crescent blade beam.
This elevated Jason's status, because he was barely at the Low Lique stage yet, had achieved such a tremendous feat!
Only when Haepha, who had also joined the Great Argos war after the Blood eclipse, defended Jason, had the suspicion about him begun to die down.
Haepha had told everyone that Jason had a soul weapon with a few particular one-time-usage runes that allowed him to launch lethal attacks that destroyed the core of his weapon.
window.pubfuturetag = window.pubfuturetag || [];window.pubfuturetag.push({unit: "663633fa8ebf7442f0652b33", id: "pf-8817-1"})Nobody remembered what his weapon looked like either way, thus he had no problem lying about Byakur's core being broken as it was not true.
The heads of the big clans were astonished about the one-year-old baby in his arms, and curiosity filled their minds with many questions.
Was the baby his child? Or was there something else, something more mysterious about the baby??
However, seeing that Jason was in a hurry to find the Ariyor and Elvyr race, they didn't bother him and instead answered the question about the two race's whereabouts.
Only half an hour later, he found Fasro and Lusan who were tending to the injuries of their comrades.
They were inside the camp Jason had rested before, and only when they saw him did they tell the others to pay attention to their injured comrades.
Similar to the big clan heads that had survived the Great Argos war, Fasro and Lusan were astonished about the baby girl in Jason's arms.
Seeing their surprised faces, he could only smile, yet, he didn't immediately reveal what kind of special existence Anna was.
Instead, Jason decided to figure out something else first!
"I'm glad to see that you guys are fine. My next questions might seem out of the blue, but how long are you planning to stay? Will you depart immediately or stay for a few months before the other races leave through the world bridges they'd emerged from?"
Jason seemed to be a little bit distressed which was not unnatural given the current situation.
Nothing was set in stone and chaos had descended on Argos, anything and everything could happen in the next few months, and that simple thought was scary enough.
Even the Elvyr and Ariyor race felt that the next few years would be difficult for the human race, but their own race also had pressing matters to solve!
As such, Lusan could only scratch the back of his head as he answered,
"To be honest with you, now that the Great Argos war has ended, we don't want to stay here anymore. You are alive and from the looks of it, you won't turn into an Infernal Celestia either! We will probably depart in one...at most two months!"
Jason just nodded his head and looked at Fasro whose thoughts were aligned with that of Lusan's.
This meant that the humans were on their own to solve their issues.
The big clan heads he had met earlier had told Jason that most of them had lost more than 60% of their members in the last battle.
It was said that the area of the battlefield where everyone at the Prismar stage had been fighting had received the brunt of the attack leading to heavy casualties and an alarmingly high death toll!
Losing so many highly talented individuals was not really advantageous, and there were hundreds of thoughts swirling through Jason's mind. He was deep in thought when Lusan asked after hesitating for a moment.
"Ehm...I don't want to be rude, but that little girl is not your daughter, right? I can't sense a Celestia aura from her...It's not that I want to interfere in your personal matters...but I was just curious."
While Jason had expected them to be curious, he did not think that Lusan, who was from the Elvyr race that was supposed to have a great mana perception would ask him such a question.
"No, she is obviously not my daughter…" Jason laughed for a short moment before he continued,
"To be honest, I saved her in the capital that had been flooded….what made me curious about her was that she had two different mana fluctuations and understood the universal language.
It looks like the soul of a mighty, deceased being has entered the body of an almost dead baby. At least, that's what I understand from the memories I've received….To put it simply, she is a reincarnatè, or more like someone who had undergone transmigration if you want to put it like that!"
