If Jason's experiment worked, normal enslavement soul pacts would lose their worth, turning into nothing but scrap as long as someone with a dominant soul world was eager to rescue everyone.
"Even though the Great Argos war has ended, the situation is still tense. As the Myöldra race continues to be the Drake clan's staunch supporter, nobody can attack them. At least, not without them waging another war against us. It would cause a chain reaction and we wouldn't be able to survive this time….
Another attack of the Overlord beasts is not something we would want at any cost!!
As such you..or even we might be able to lower the Drake clan's combat strength by a vast amount.
Most of their powerhouses, let alone newer generations of the clan members, are in an enslavement soul pact after all!"
Jason was no samaritan, and he had only planned to help the Flers, but when he heard what Ben said right after Betty had calmed down from her rant, caused him to think about everything more thoroughly.
Hearing what Ben said, Jason couldn't help but feel that the young man was more righteous than he was.
Thus, he smiled lightly while the others seemed to be convinced about trying out Jason's insane idea.
Only Xenia was somewhat reluctant but both Ben and Betty volunteered to sign an enslavement soul pact with any of the God's Children.
As such, Tom made the soul pact, and enslaved Ben, while the rest of them observed everything precisely.
After that, they had to test if everything was working which caused Tom to ask Ben several questions. Wanting to test the pact as well as know something he had assumed for a long time he said,
"If you're in love with anyone tell me the name!"
Tom's last question was mean because he had already sensed something about Ben's love interest. However, looking at Ben's face, he seemed to have never told the truth to anyone but was now forced to speak.

"Whisper the name into my ear!"
Ben was one of Tom's best friends. As such, he didn't want to throw him into the pit of fire.
Apparently, Ben was still uncomfortable and wanted to leave, but was forced to answer due to the enslavement soul pact.
"I knew it!!" Tom exclaimed before Ben retreated with an ashen-white face.
He seemed to be lost and seeing his dejected expression, Xenia intervened.
"Wasn't that a little bit too much Tom? We just wanted to figure out whether the soul pact works or not. There was no need to peek into his personal life!!"
Jason nodded his head when he heard this, but Tom's smile as an answer caused Jason's interest to skyrocket.
'So it works like that?' He thought inwardly before he clasped his hands, attracting the others' attention.
"Now that we've figured out that the enslavement soul pact is working properly, I will bind you with my soul, alright? I have more than enough soul crystals, and a high amount of soul energy, so there shouldn't be anything wrong with that!"
With that being said, Jason and the God's children completed their preparations while Merl and the other human powerhouses were oblivious to the revolutionary occurrence happening right under their noses.
If they were to know what the six young men and women were doing, they would have prevented them from going ahead because there had been many things that had already been tested out with the soul world.
Unfortunately, there had been more accidents than one could think of, and it couldn't be considered the best move to test out the supremacy of a certain soul with a God's child's soul. It was already superior to every other soul world existing in mankind's history except Jason's.
window.pubfuturetag = window.pubfuturetag || [];window.pubfuturetag.push({unit: "64cc9e79c7059f003e4ad4b0", id: "pf-5109-1"})There was a reason the human prodigies were referred to as 'The God's children', and it was only fortunate that it was Jason who tried to subdue Ben with his soul world and not one of the other God's children.
While the others looked at Jason with tense expressions, he took a deep breath to calm down. Slowly, he loosened a thread of his soul which he shot towards Ben, who was two meters in front of him, without hesitation.
At that moment a faint shockwave of mysterious energies swept through the training hall, attracting the human powerhouses' attention.
A moment later they had appeared in the training hall, only to see four God's children standing around Jason and Ben, who were doing something.
While Ben had to grit his teeth in pain, Jason released more and more of his soul thread, intertwined with huge amounts of soul energy.
Right now, Jason's soul energy had no use because his soulbonds were growing at a rate slower than the soul energy replenishment rate.
Jason had no intention to contract another soulbond for the time being either because his vessel had to be further reinforced while the wound left behind after Scorpio's death in his heart had yet to heal.
If he were to bind another beast to his soul, the decision would be irrevocable, turning the new soulbond into his family instantly, and Jason would never allow them to be severely injured!
Due to his Emperor Eyes Jason could see every detail about what was happening right now.
As such, he perceived how Ben's soul was trying to fight off Jason's soul thread, only to be overpowered and slowly forced into submission.
Jason's soul thread was mostly white with golden and silver strands intertwined with each other that were the colors representing Jason as an individual.
The more soul energy he used to oppress, the weaker Ben's defenses became as he accepted being turned into a soulbond of Jason.
Under normal circumstances, one would actively fight against this kind of submission, but the current situation was different.
window.pubfuturetag = window.pubfuturetag || [];window.pubfuturetag.push({unit: "663633fa8ebf7442f0652b33", id: "pf-8817-1"})They were just testing if it was possible to terminate an enslavement soul pact without the enslaved party's resistance.
If that worked with Ben, whose soul world was extremely strong, everything else should work too.
Time passed slowly, and Merl had already appeared next to the other God's children in order to observe what they had been up to.
It was interesting, but Merl as well as the other human powerhouses couldn't help but feel as if the young generation was too hasty.
Had they known that Jason was extremely confident that his assumption would work as well as his gut-feeling that told him everything was doing fine, Merl would've probably called him an idiot.
One might think that they were foolish, but the excitement originating from the possibility of being able to terminate certain enslavement soul pacts was too interesting.
While Jason's soul had already overwhelmed Ben's he had accidentally forced it out, leading to a gigantic soul world behind Jason that was continuously enlarging.
The surrounding was lit up, and everyone could see the multitude of affinity wisps levitating through his soul world, making them witness a shocking sight.
When he noticed this, Jason retracted it within a moment, only to be caught before he said.
"I'm done with the soulbound contract!"
The connection between Jason's soul world core and Ben's was only faint, but it was evident that Jason had become the dominant force because he was completely unfazed while Ben grit his teeth in an effort to survive the pressure.
"It feels way more uncomfortable than expected...the enslavement soul pact is trying to tear me apart for becoming the subordinate of someone else, but the soulbound contract prevents this from occurring!"
With that knowledge, Jason couldn't help but feel as if he had taken a major step in figuring out a solution as he said,
"Now let's destroy the enslavement soul pact!!"
